This was mainly driven by a decrease in same store sales due to the economic slowdown, despite the company opening an additional 6 new branches since 30 September 2023.

Other income for the third quarter of 2024 was Baht 137.77 million, a decrease of Baht 35.24 million or 20.37% compared to the same period of the previous year, and for the nine-month period ended 30 September 2024 was Baht 556.85 million, increasing by Baht 33.41 million or 6.38% compared to the same period of the previous year, as a result of increased service revenue and promotional revenue in the first and the second quarters.
