The company&rsquo;s net profit surged to 252 million Saudi riyals, marking a 14.06% increase over its 2021 results. This impressive growth was largely driven by an increase in sales revenue, which totaled over 1 billion riyals. The company&rsquo;s short-term rental fleet saw strong demand throughout the year, while long-term leasing also contributed significantly to the profits.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The company&rsquo;s optimized use of its growing fleet, which expanded by 6,000 vehicles to 32,000 by the end of the financial year, was a major factor in boosting revenue and profit. In recognition of its outstanding performance, the board of directors recommended distributing cash dividends of 142 million riyals for 2022, a company record.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mr. Fawaz Abdullah Danish, the Group CEO, attributed the growth in income to an increase in the number of tourists and Umrah performers visiting the Kingdom, thanks to the country&rsquo;s openness to tourism and its excellent airport infrastructure. The company sold 5,900 cars in 2022 and is expected to sell more cars in 2023.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although the supply of new cars presented a challenge up until August of 2022, it improved during the final quarter, and the company expects it to return to normal levels during the second half of 2023. Budget Saudi&rsquo;s ongoing dedication to providing top-quality service to customers has been a major factor in achieving these historic results. Mr. Danish expressed confidence that the team&rsquo;s continuing dedication will pave the way for even greater achievements and successes in the coming years.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Budget Rent a Car is the flagship brand of United International Transportation Company, which has been proudly serving customers for more than 44 years. The company offers domestic and international short-term rentals, long-term rentals, and corporate leasing, among other services, through 91 locations throughout the Kingdom, including 13 international and domestic airports, that cover the major population centers, and five used-car showrooms located in Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, Medina, and Abha.<\/p>\n<p><span style='font-size:18px !important;'>Media Contact<\/span><br \/><strong>Company Name:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/companyname\/budgetsaudi.com_111004.html\" rel=\"nofollow\">Budget Saudi <\/a><br \/><strong>Contact Person:<\/strong> Anil Mathew Abraham<br \/><strong>Email:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/email_contact_us.php?pr=budget-saudi-records-historic-profits-in-2022-driven-by-strong-demand-and-fleet-expansion\" rel=\"nofollow\">Send Email<\/a><br \/><strong>Phone:<\/strong> +966 92000 4124<br \/><strong>Address:<\/strong>3, Al Basateen District, Bin 3 Complex,   King Abdul Aziz Road<br \/><strong>City:<\/strong> Jeddah 23719<br \/><strong>Country:<\/strong> Saudi Arabia<br \/><strong>Website:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.budgetsaudi.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">http:\/\/www.budgetsaudi.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><object type=\"text\/html\" data=\"http:\/\/www.budgetsaudi.com\/\" style=\"width:900px; height:400px;\"><\/object><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/press_stat.php?pr=budget-saudi-records-historic-profits-in-2022-driven-by-strong-demand-and-fleet-expansion\" alt=\"\" width=\"1px\" height=\"1px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jeddah, Saudi Arabia &#8211; Budget Saudi, one of the leading car rental companies in Saudi Arabia, has announced record-breaking profits for 2022.
