IPO WATCH

Alramz Real Estatesets IPO price range at SAR 67-70 apiece

Alramz Real Estate set the price range for its upcoming Tadawul IPO at SAR 67-70 per share, according to an announcement from SNB Capital picked up by Argaam. The IPO would raise SAR 900.2 mn in gross proceeds at the top of the range, implying a market cap of SAR 3 bn at listing, according to our calculations.

ICYMI- The company is offering 12.86 mn newly issued shares, equivalent to 30% of itspost-increase capital. Capital will rise to SAR 428.57 mn — up from SAR 300 mn — upon the completion of the offering. Al Ramz secured binding commitments from three cornerstone investors for 2.7 mn shares last week.

Use of proceeds: Proceeds from the offering, excluding SAR 27 mn for IPO-related expenses, will be used entirely by the company. Alramz will use some 37% of the net proceeds to develop projects, 36% to finance new real estate funds, and 23% for general corporate purposes. Current shareholders will not receive any funds from the offering.

The book-building period for institutional investors kicked off yesterday and will run until Thursday, 27 November. Meanwhile, retail investors will be able to subscribe to 20% of the offered shares between 7-9 December. Final allocations will be made on Monday, 15 December.

ADVISORS- SNB Capital is quarterbacking the transaction as the financial advisor, lead manager, bookrunner, and underwriter. Receiving agents include SNB Capital, BSF Capital, Al Rajhi Capital, Sab Invest, Alinma Capital, Riyad Capital, AlJazira Capital, Alistithmar Capital, AlBilad Investment, ANB Capital, Derayah Financial, Yaqeen Capital, AlKhabeer Capital, Sahm Capital, GIB Capital, Musharaka Financial, EFG Hermes KSA, and Awaed Financial Assets.

LOGISTICS

DHL to plug EUR 130 mn into new logistics hub in Riyadh

Global supply chain giant DHL earmarked EUR 130 mn (SAR 561 mn) for building a new Riyadh logistics hub, located in the city’s special integrated logistics zone next to King Khalid International Airport, DHL Middle East and Africa CEO Orkun Saruhanoglu told Bloomberg. The hub is scheduled to open in 2027.

Construction on the new hub is slated to kick off next year. The 78k sqm project will offer its services to DHL’s customers over a variety of expanding industries, including the tech, e-commerce, and automotive sectors. The bonded warehouse will act as a bonded corridor to King Khalid International Airport and is expected to slash clearance times in the Kingdom.

Part of a EUR 500 mn investment plan: DHL Group is planning to invest over EUR 500 mn in the Middle East between 2024 and 2030, with a focus on Saudi Arabia and the UAE. The investment spans the company’s four divisions — DHL Express, DHL Global Forwarding, DHL Supply Chain, and DHL eCommerce.

Saudi Arabia is DHL’s fastest-growing market in the region, Saruhanoglu said, noting that the company is mulling over further expansion in the Kingdom, without disclosing further details. The company’s new hub is forecast to support domestic and regional trade flows by boosting the country’s capacity for manufacturing and distribution activities.

DHL has lots of hands in the Kingdom: DHL Supply Chain tapped oil giant Aramco to form a joint venture, Advanced Supply Management Operations (ASMO), in 2023. The JV inked a 15-year agreement with Aramco in January to manage procurement and logistics services for the energy firm. The JV also locked in SAR 300 mn in agreements with Aramco Digital, SAP, and Oracle in January to digitalize the transformation of the supply chain and procurement landscape.

CONSTRUCTION

Construction costs in Saudi inch up 1% y-o-y in October

The Kingdom’s Construction Cost Index (CCI) rose 1% y-o-y in October, maintaining the same pace as the previous month, according to recent data (pdf) from the General Authority for Statistics. The uptick was driven by a 1% increase in residential construction costs and a 0.9% rise in non-residential costs.

The drivers: Residential construction costs rose on the back of a 1.5% increase in labor expenses, a 1.2% rise in equipment and machinery rental prices, and a 1.4% increase in rentals of equipment and machinery with operators. Meanwhile, non-residential construction costs jumped due to a 1.3% rise in equipment and machinery rental prices, a 1.6% increase in rentals of equipment and machinery with operators, and 1% growth in labor costs.

ALSO- Energy prices jumped 9.9% in October. For residential projects, basic materials prices edged up 0.1% y-o-y, supported by a 1.7% increase in raw materials prices and a 1.3% rise in cement and concrete. In the non-residential segment, prices for basic materials rose 0.2%, thanks to a 2.0% increase in wood and carpentry prices and a 1.5% rise in raw materials prices.

On a monthly basis: The CCI remained stable in October compared to September, as both residential and non-residential construction costs showed no change m-o-m.

CAPITAL MARKETS

Tadawul logs a mixed performance in 3Q 2025

Tadawul demonstrated a mixed performance in 3Q 2025, characterized by cooling equity trading volumes, continued resilience in foreign inflows, and a shift in debt issuance activity, according to the Capital Market Authority’s (CMA) latest quarterly bulletin (pdf). The main market and the parallel market saw benchmarks and daily turnover retreat from previous highs, reflecting broader market cooling after a strong 2Q, while the equity IPO window remained active.

Tadawul’s benchmark index TASI averaged 11.5k points in 3Q, down from 12.2k points a year earlier. The value traded on the main market came in at SAR 326 bn, compared to SAR 445.8 bn in 3Q 2024, while the average daily turnover eased to SAR 5 bn from SAR 6.9 bn. Meanwhile, Tadawul’s overall market capitalization slipped to SAR 9.3 tn, down from SAR 10.1 tn a year ago.

Nomu also cooled from last year’s highs: The parallel market basically flattened at 25.47k points in 3Q 2025, with its total value traded coming in at SAR 2.05 bn, lower than the SAR 2.98 bn recorded in 3Q 2024. The average daily turnover on the parallel market reached SAR 31.5 mn in 3Q, slipping from SAR 45.9 mn a year earlier.

ON EQUITY-

Tadawul's main and parallel markets saw eight IPOs in the third quarter, worth a total SAR 2.36 bn, an increase from five in the same quarter last year. The initial market cap of newly listed companies totaled SAR 8.26 bn, a sharp 4.6x increase from a year earlier (SAR 1.79 bn). However, this momentum cooled off from a stronger 2Q, which saw 13 companies go public, raising SAR 25.6 bn.

In the pipeline: The CMA approved four IPOs on the main market in 3Q 2025 versus one on the parallel market. Another 35 IPOs are currently under review, including 16 on the main market and 19 on Nomu.

Local investors accounted for 94.4% of total ownership by value, while foreign investors held 4.8%, while GCC investors accounted for only 0.8%. Institutional ownership remained flat in 3Q, accounting for 95.15% of total market ownership.

It’s a different picture for trading: Local investors accounted for 62% of total trading in 3Q, followed by foreigners at 36%.

IN CONTEXT- Saudi equities kept pulling in foreign capital in 3Q even as local trading volumes softened. Foreign investors were net buyers to the tune of SAR 10.1 bn last quarter, the strongest quarterly intake this year, backed by expectations that Tadawul will ease foreign ownership limits before year-end.

THE DEBT WATCH-

Private over public: The public debt market remained inactive in 3Q 2025, with no SAR-denominated public debt issuances recorded, unchanged from the same quarter last year. The activity was concentrated entirely in private placements, where seven issuers completed 16 offerings, raising a combined SAR 4.2 bn, down sharply from SAR 15.89 bn across four issuers and nine offerings in 3Q 2024.

Meanwhile, the non-SAR debt market picked up, with total issuance rising to SAR 6.04 bn from SAR 2.39 bn a year earlier. Private placements also accounted for all activity, with 17 issuers completing 18 offerings worth SAR 5.42 bn, alongside one government issuance of SAR 619 mn.


ALSO- Total assets under management (AUM) across Saudi investment funds rose to SAR 217.86 bn in 3Q, significantly up from SAR 160.09 bn in 3Q 2024. The growth was driven primarily by money market funds, which climbed to SAR 71.58 bn from SAR 44.87 bn a year earlier. Meanwhile, fixed-income funds also increased to SAR 30.36 bn, up from SAR 22.24 bn in 3Q last year.

SAUDI IN THE NEWS

Crown Prince’s high-stakes White House diplomacy

Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s White House visit is drawing international attention, with Bloomberg spotlighting the mix of high-profile announcements and lingering political hurdles shaping Saudi-US ties. With US politics shifting and skepticism in Congress still strong, the Crown Prince now faces the longer-term challenge of turning this high-visibility diplomatic moment into agreements that can last beyond Trump’s term.

Regional concerns are also surfacing, particularly in Israel, where officials are uneasy about Washington’s greenlighting weapons sales to Riyadh without progress on normalization. Former diplomats told the business news service that US President Donald Trump may ultimately link the Kingdom’s biggest asks — a binding defense pact and permission to enrich uranium on Saudi soil — to movement on ties with Israel.

Is AI being built on dissolving tracks?

When it comes to AI, ignore the stock charts — the real story may be in the amortization schedules. Pundits who spent last week watching the red arrows on the Nasdaq (down 2.7% for the week) may have missed the real story: The sell-off was noise, when the signal is in the accounting.

(Tap or click the headline above to read this story with all of the links to our background as well as external sources.)

What we’re seeing now is the real-time collision between two fundamental views of the AI economy: The “deployment phase” optimists who see a productivity boom, and “capex realists” (think: Michael Burry) who see (at best) a hole in the balance sheet that revenue cannot (yet?) fill.

The bulls see a deployment dividend on the horizon. The New York Times has recently argued that the “hype cycle” is coming to an end and the “deployment cycle” has begun. The argument: AI is no longer a parlor trick — it’s starting to show up in GDP and output-per-hour data. Bulls claim we’re at the start of a structural shift comparable to electrification or the internet — but happening at 2x the speed.

  • The evidence: The cost of adoption is stabilizing while the efficiency dividend widens, suggesting the path to profitability is clearer than the market thinks.

The bears see a capex treadmill — and maybe some hinky accounting. There’s a flaw in the Internet 2.0 analogy, and it’s in the physics of the infrastructure. When the Dotcom bubble burst, it left behind mns of km of “dark fiber” — assets with a >20-year useful life that powered the internet for decades at near-zero incremental cost.

The catch: Today’s AI boom is built on silicon, not glass — and GPUs have short lifespans. Unlike fiber, GPUs are depreciating assets with “frontier lifespans” of roughly 3-4 years before energy efficiency gains make them economically obsolete.

The accounting hijinks: Hyperscalers like Microsoft and Google have quietly extended their server depreciation schedules to 5-6 years to protect current earnings. If the hardware becomes obsolete in three years, those earnings are a mirage.

The “re-buy” problem: As Sequoia’s David Cahn noted last year, the industry isn’t just building a railroad — it’s building a railroad where the tracks dissolve every 48 months. To stay in the game, Big Tech must re-spend its capex budget in perpetuity.

Famed contrarian Michael Burry (of The Big Short fame) has reportedly placed a USD 1.1bn wager against Nvidia and Palantir, warning that the sector is sleepwalking into a crash. His argument mirrors the depreciation thesis: He accuses hyperscalers of inflating earnings by artificially extending the “useful life” of their servers — a “depreciation trick” that boosts profits on paper while the hardware rots in reality.

The bottom line: If the Times is right, the revenue arrives just in time to pay for the next generation of chips. If it’s wrong, we aren't looking at a bubble, but at the most expensive depreciation write-down in corporate history.
