The EGX-listed company <a href=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/2022\/3\/Screen-Shot-2022-03-30-at-1.13.20-PM.png\">announced<\/a> yesterday that stakes totalling 6% of the company\u2019s shares had changed hands and been acquired by an unnamed investor. Consensus in the press is that the buyer was the National Bank of Egypt (see: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.asharqbusiness.com\/article\/35610\">Bloomberg Asharq<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3qORcAa\">Hapi Journal<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3IR40fQ\">Al Mal<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shorouknews.com\/news\/view.aspx?cdate=30032022&id=548ed404-efbb-4820-9f26-03b73cfec601\">Al Shorouk<\/a>). A top NBE official declined to confirm or deny the news when we asked yesterday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Running the numbers:<\/strong> The state-owned bank paid more than EGP 1 bn in a block transaction, handing it some 102.5 mn shares at EGP 10.25 apiece. This raised its total stake in the company to 12.25%, making it the second-biggest shareholder after Banque Misr.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who\u2019s selling?<\/strong> The sellers were international investors, including Link Holdco and Black Sparrow Long Term Investments (which Fawry has previously said was controlled by FIM Partners), Asharq reported, citing sources with knowledge of the matter.<\/p>\n<p><strong>This would be the second state-owned bank to purchase shares in the fintech darling in the past week: <\/strong>Banque Misr last week <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/173a4bd1-68e9-478a-8422-135f238e0210\">purchased an 8.85%<\/a> stake in a EGP 1.47 bn transaction, upping its ownership to 15.8%.
