HKC Ceramics (better known as Hedab Al Khaleej) is guiding on a price range of SAR 48-52 per share for its planned Nomu debut, according to a filing to Tadawul. At the top of the range, the marble and porcelain supplier could raise up to SAR 41.6 mn in IPO proceeds, valuing the company at SAR 390 mn at listing.
REFRESHER- Hedab Al Khaleej is selling a 10.67% stake on Tadawul’s parallel market with the goal of raising capital to finance its expansion plans and reduce its existing liabilities. As with any Nomu IPO, subscription will be limited to qualified institutional investors (QIIs). The company’s three substantial shareholders will see their ownership diluted to a combined 68.57% stake post-capital hike and IPO, down from 76.76%.
What’s next? A five-day subscription period will kick off on Sunday during which QIIs will be able to book up to 375k shares each, with the minimum limit set at 10 shares per investor. The final share allocation is slated for Tuesday, 25 February.
