AMERICANA-

ADX and Tadawul-listed F&B giant Americana Restaurants reported a net income of USD 92.5 mn in 1H 2025, up 15.7% y-o-y, with revenues growing 15.6% to USD 1.2 bn, according to an earnings release (pdf). The growth came on the back of an increase in like-for-like sales, strategic expansion, product innovation, and continued cost discipline. The company maintained last year’s net income margin of 7.6% despite some USD 8.2 mn in new taxes in its main markets in 2025.

The firm expanded its footprint by opening 36 new stores and integrating 46 Pizza Hut outlets in Oman, bringing the company’s total store count to 2.6k locations across 12 countries. Americana also signed an exclusive franchise agreement with Greek food and beverage brand carpo earlier this month with rights in Kuwait and Qatar, and further expansion planned in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. It is also in talks to buy a stake in Dubai-based Cravia, the MENA operator of Five Guys, Cinnabon, and Zaatar w Zeit.
