<\/a> MENA exchanges saw an <\/strong>\u201cunprecedented surge\u201d in stock market debuts in 2021, with a record 21 companies completing IPOs <\/strong>in the region, EY says in its quarterly MENA IPO Eye report<\/a>. Companies raised some USD 7.9 bn in debut share sales last year, more than quadruple that of 2020, it said.<\/p>\n

Energy, financial services and utilities companies dominated last year:<\/strong> Saudi Arabia\u2019s ACWA Power led the pack by raising some USD 1.2 bn in its listing on the Tadawul. ADNOC Drilling came in close behind with a USD 1.1 bn listing in 4Q2021 in Abu Dhabi. The bulk of IPO activity took place late in the year, with 13 issuances worth some USD 5.6 bn listed in 4Q2021 alone.<\/p>\n

Abu Dhabi topped performance in the region<\/strong> with the ADX index up by 68% at the close of 2021. Saudi\u2019s Tadawul came in second with its index up some 30% by the end of the year. Egypt caught some of the action but performed nowhere nearly as well as regional peers, with the EGX 30 index ending the year up only 10%.<\/p>\n

IPO activity on the EGX wasn\u2019t quite as hot:<\/strong> We saw two IPOs worth more than USD 500 mn last year, in addition to the EGX\u2019s first ever technical listing and a stake sale as part of the state privatization program. Still, listings fell short of expectations that we would get five or six IPOs completed in 2021<\/a>. State-owned tech company e-Finance<\/a> came in with the EGX\u2019s biggest IPO since 2015, raising some EGP 5.8 bn (USD 370 mn) in its listing, while higher education outfit Taaleem<\/a> raised EGP 2.1 bn (USD 133.5 mn) in its EGX debut. Consumer healthcare provider Integrated Diagnostics Holding (IDH) completed the first technical listing<\/a> in EGX history after it transferred 5% of the company\u2019s existing 600 mn shares to become dual listed on the EGX and LSE. Abu Qir Fertilizers also completed a sale of some 10% of its shares for EGP 2.25 bn (USD 140 mn) late last year<\/a>. We also had Emerald Real Estate\u2019s mini-IPO on the Nilex in October<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Still, performance was way up from 2020:<\/strong> The EGX closed out the year up 10% YTD, a far cry from its performance in 2020 when it ended the year down over 23%.<\/p>\n

EY\u2019s take? 2022 looks \u201cpromising\u201d for IPOs in Egypt:<\/strong> So far, the EGX has seen two listings this year: Al Khair River for Development and Investment\u2019s (aka Nahr El Khair) shares began trading on the EGX in January, followed by Macro Group\u2019s EGP 1.3 bn IPO<\/a> the following month. The Planning Ministry announced that Egypt is still targeting to list state-owned companies every month or two. We could be seeing some more listings coming from the likes of Egyptian Chemical Industries (Kima)<\/a>, who might sell more shares on the EGX later this year when earnings pick up. Banque du Caire, Misr Ins. Holding\u2019s Misr Life Ins<\/a>, Heliopolis Housing and Development<\/a> and Mopco<\/a> could also be in the pipeline for secondary offerings at some point during 2022. On the private sector side of things, healthy food brand Abu Auf istargeting a 2Q2022 listing<\/a> and non-bank financial services player Ebtikar is also reportedly planning<\/a> to go to market in early 2022. Then there are the military companies Safi and Wataniya Petroleum<\/a> which have been slated to float on the exchange for some time now.<\/p>\n

You sure, EY?<\/strong> Although it was published around a week after Russia decided to invade Ukraine at the end of February, it appears that the report was written without taking into account the event which has sparked turmoil in global commodities markets and triggered serious concern about the direction of the global economy as it copes with surging inflation and intensifying shortages of key commodities. Add to that that we\u2019re entering a period of rapidly rising interest rates and we\u2019re expecting a few more bumps in the financial markets this year. We\u2019re not saying these IPOs aren\u2019t going to happen, but market conditions matter.<\/p>\n

Regionally, the outlook is still shaky:<\/strong> Although a rebound from 2020 was underway rising interest rates, inflation and geopolitical tensions has kept \u201cthe mid-to-long-term outlook remains somewhat uncertain,\u201d said Gregory Hughes, EY MENA IPO and transaction diligence head. State privatization initiatives and investor oversubscriptions, however, are indicative of \u201ca period of high demand and strong investor sentiment,\u201d Hughes added. What remains to be seen is \u201cwhether there is sufficient liquidity in the regional markets to cover the expected pipeline of large government backed IPOs in the near term,\u201d Hughes said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
