These contracts are expected to boost revenue and support financial stability in the coming period.

Al-Ammar said the transformation plan also focuses on the emergency medicine model, serving top oil-sector clients like Johns Hopkins Aramco. The company expanded this model by opening branches in Riyadh, Tabuk, and Jubail, in addition to existing locations in Dammam, Khobar, and Buqaya. He added that the company is reviewing expansion opportunities in high-potential cities and sectors across Saudi Arabia. Any updates will be disclosed once finalized. On investments, he noted the portfolio delivered an 8.36% return, focusing on high-potential opportunities in the local market. This performance reflects sound investment decisions and the effectiveness of the company's growth strategy.
