WHAT WE’RE TRACKING TODAY

THIS MORNING: Riyadh real estate lottery eligibility results are in

Good morning. It’s another brisk issue landing in your inbox this morning, led by the latest industrial output figures from Gastat. We also have the breakdown of SAR 38 bn infrastructure projects moving a step forward in Riyadh, and a flurry of 3Q earnings as the season is coming to an end (the deadline is today for some 20 companies still not out with their quarterly results).

The calm after the storm: Business is taking a well-deserved breather from the breakneck pace of forums and meetings we saw two weeks ago, with FII9 securing a whopping USD 50 bn in agreements and investment pledges during its four-day run from 27-30 October.

IN MEMORIAM- Princess Wafaa bint Bandar bin Khalid bin Abdulaziz Al Saud passedaway yesterday. The funeral prayer is held today in the Holy Grand Mosque in Makkah following Maghrib Prayer.

HAPPENING TODAY-

#1- The inaugural TouriseSummit kicks off today and runs through 13 November at Riyadh’s King Abdulaziz International Conference Center. The event brings together more than 120 global leaders from government, business, and non-profits, featuring major players such as Expedia, Google, Amadeus, Accor, Nikki Beach, Red Sea Global, Certares, and the Public Investment Fund.

#2- It’s the second and final day of the Egypt-Gulf Cooperation Council Trade and Investment Forum. The two-day forum in Cairo — held under the theme A Roadmap to Strengthening Egyptian-Gulf Economic Cooperation — features panel discussions, B2B meetings, and B2G sessions. Egypt aims to boost exports to the Kingdom by 10–15% in 2026, targeting around USD 4 bn, an unnamed Egyptian official told Asharq Business yesterday.

WEATHER- Expect low visibility in parts of the Eastern Region, Dammam, and Makkah today due to mist and fog. Meanwhile, moderate rain is forecast for Asir, with light showers expected over Makkah and Al Baha. The rest of the Kingdom will see clearer skies.

Riyadh: 28°C high / 14°C low.
Jeddah: 35°C high / 25°C low.
Makkah: 35°C high / 23°C low.
Dammam: 31°C high / 16°C low.

PSAs-

#1-Taif’s Al Hada road will be closed from 9am to 6pm today and tomorrow in both directions for maintenance, the Saudi Gazette reported on Sunday, citing a statement from the Special Forces for Road Security.

#2- Businesses subject to excise tax have to submit their September and October returns by Saturday, 15 November via the Zakat, Tax, and Customs Authority’s (Zatca) website, the authority said in a statement yesterday. Late submissions will incur a 5% penalty of the due tax for every 30 days of delay.

WATCH THIS SPACE-

#1- Riyadh real estate lottery eligibility results are in: The Royal Commission for Riyadh City released the results for applications submitted through the newly launched Tawazon platform, state news agency SPA reported on Sunday. Qualified applicants will move on to the electronic lottery for available land plots on 17 December. Eligible applicants can check their status via their personal accounts, with notifications being sent to registered mobile numbers. Meanwhile, those not eligible may submit appeals with supporting documents by 8 December to be reviewed by a dedicated committee.

REFRESHER- Launched in September, the Tawazoun platform offers Saudi citizens residential plots at a capped price of SAR 1.5k per sqm, aiming to provide 10k to 40k plots annually to stabilize Riyadh’s real estate market. Eligible applicants must be married or over 25 years of age, Riyadh residents for at least three years, and first-time property owners. The offered plots cannot be sold for 10 years and must be developed within that period to avoid repossession.

#2- Goldman Sachs stands to earn some USD 110 mn for advising Electronic Arts on the record PIF-led USD 55 bn buyout, the Financial Times reported, citing a securities filing. The fee is the highest Goldman Sachs ever to gain from an M&A transaction in its history.

The Wall Street bank investment bank received USD 10 mn when the agreement was announced, with USD 100 mn due to come in once regulators and shareholders greenlight the buyout, expected in 1Q 2027.

#3- Saudi Arabia has emerged as the hottest destination for Chinese steel in the first nine months of the year, with shipments rising 41.4% y-o-y to 4.8 mn tons, marking the largest jump among major markets, Bloomberg reported, citing Chinese customs data. Exports of long steel products to the Kingdom nearly doubled, while semi-finished steel shipments grew more than sixfold.

The growth was boosted by China’s Belt and Road investments, including multi-bn-USD projects in the Kingdom’s energy and transport sectors that spurred demand, according to Jing Zhang, a senior research analyst at Wood Mackenzie.

IN CONTEXT- The surge comes as Chinese mills navigate rising tariffs and global protectionism, redirecting exports to markets with fewer restrictions like the Middle East, Zhang said. However, the sustainability of the current boom is far from certain as the Kingdom prepares to redirect its spending away from steel-intensive gigaprojects like Neom and toward sectors that can deliver faster, more sustainable returns like logistics, mineral development, religious tourism, and AI.

DATA POINTS-

#1- Saudi Arabia’s localization of military spending rose to 24.9% in 2024, halfway toward its goal of localizing over 50% of defense expenditure by 2030, the General Authority for Military Industries (Gami) said on X yesterday. The local content share of military spending increased to 40.7% in 2024 from 38.4% in 2023. Meanwhile, the sector’s gross output reached SAR 6.7 bn — or 0.1% of GDP.

SOUND SMART- The localization of military spending represents the overall share of defense expenditure directed to domestic suppliers, while the local content share measures the value added by Saudi-made products, services, and labor within that spending. Though related, the local content share provides a measure of the quality of localization, reflecting deeper integration of national capabilities into the defense industry’s supply chain.

#2- Cement sales in the Kingdom increased 7.3% y-o-y to 5.2 mn tons in October, the highest monthly volume since March 2021, Trade Arabia reports, citing a research note from Al Rajhi Capital. Yamama Cement led the market at a 15.3% share, followed by Saudi Cement at 13%.

SPORTS-

Tickets for the Riyadh Season World Snooker Championship 167 are now available via Webook, with the tournament set to run from 19 to 21 November at the Global Theater in Boulevard City, the General Entertainment Authority said in a statement on Sunday. The tournament will feature top stars like Ronnie O’Sullivan, John Higgins, and Ding Junhui, along with Saudi debutants Ziyad Al Qabbani and Ayman Alamri.

The spotlight will be on the Golden Ball, worth 20 points and a USD 1 mn prize, making a record 167-point break possible.

THE BIG STORY ABROAD-

The US Senate approved a funding measure to reopen the federal government, a major step towards ending the longest shutdown on record. The bipartisan bill — passed 60-40 — includes three full-year funding measures for parts of the government, as well as stopgap funding for the rest until 30 January. The date potentially sets the stage for another shutdown next year if negotiations fall through on key issues like the Affordable Care Act.

The measure will now head to the House, where it’s poised to pass as soon as Wednesday, then land on President Trump’s desk to be signed into law. (Washington Post | Reuters | CNN)

ALSO IN WASHINGTON, DC- Ahmed Al Sharaa became the first Syrian President ever to visit Washington, DC, after he met with US President Trump yesterday at the White House. The landmark talks saw Trump vow to help Syria’s economy after years of war and international isolation, while the Treasury department extended its waiver of the so-called Caesar sanctions by 180 days. A full removal of sanctions on Syria would need to be passed in the Congress. (Reuters | Semafor)

Industrial output climbs 9.3% y-o-y in September on higher oil production

The Industrial Production Index (IPI) increased 9.3% y-o-y in September, according to preliminary data (pdf) from the General Authority for Statistics. The growth was buoyed by higher oil output during the month following the accelerated unwinding of Opec+ production cuts.

(** Tap or click the headline above to read this story with all of the links to our background and outside sources.)

Mining and quarrying activities — representing 61.4% of the total index weight — went up 11% y-o-y during the month, with the Kingdom’s oil output rising to 9.97 mn bbl / d, compared to 8.97 mn bbl / d in the same month last year.

Manufacturing also saw a 6.3% y-o-y increase, thanks to a 9.2% expansion in the manufacturing of chemical products and 6% y-o-y growth in the manufacture of petroleum coke and refined petroleum products. Meanwhile, the sub-index of electricity, gas, steam, and air conditioning supply logged 12.6% y-o-y growth, while the sub-index of water supply, sewerage, waste management, and remediation activities rose 9.2%.

MEANWHILE- The oil activities index climbed 10.1% y-o-y in September, the highest rate since January 2024, while the non-oil activities index posted a 7.3% y-o-y increase.

REMEMBER- The Kingdom’s non-oil private sector expanded at its fastest rate in six months in September, hitting 57.8. The reading is still shy of January’s peak of 60.5.

Riyadh pushes forward with SAR 38 bn infrastructure projects

Riyadh gets a flurry of new infrastructure projects: Riyadh Governor Prince Faisal bin Bandar inaugurated 82 new development projects worth over SAR 9.8 bn and broke ground on 99 additional projects valued at over SAR 28.3 bn, the National Water Company (NWC) said in a press release on Sunday. The initiatives aim to enhance the region’s environmental, water, and agricultural infrastructure.

(** Tap or click the headline above to read this story with all of the links to our background and outside sources.)

Water infrastructure: The NWC is rolling out 61 projects totalling SAR 4.5 bn to expand drinking water and wastewater networks across Riyadh. Meanwhile, the Saudi Water Authority (SWA) is carrying out three major projects worth over SAR 5.1 bn to increase desalinated water capacity and strengthen water security. The Saudi Irrigation Organization (SIO) is also upgrading irrigation systems and promoting water efficiency through projects exceeding SAR 58 mn, while the Environment, Water, and Agriculture Ministry has completed five projects worth over SAR 40 mn to enhance water supply to desalination plants serving Riyadh and neighboring governorates.

Environmental and agricultural initiatives: The National Center for Vegetation Development and Desertification Control completed 10 projects worth SAR 61.2 mn, including the rehabilitation of 4k hectares in Al Zulfi, the development of national parks in Al Ghat, Al Zulfi, Huraymila, and Wathilan, and the planting of 520k seedlings across several royal reserves and parks.

The newly launched foundation phase covers 99 projects across Riyadh, including 91 focused on drinking water and sanitation. These 91 projects include:

11 projects being executed by SWA for SAR 21.4 bn;
67 by NWC for SAR 4.6 bn;
One by the Saudi Water Partnership Company for SAR 1.8 bn;
11 by the Environment Ministry for SAR 99 mn;

Petro Rabigh in the red (again) in 3Q + BinDawood, Flynas and more

PETRO RABIGH-

Rabigh Refining and Petrochemical Company slightly narrowed its net losses to SAR 1.2 bn in 3Q 2025, compared to SAR 1.3 bn in the same period last year, on the back of lower financial costs which were offset by lower margins and sales volume, it said in a Tadawul disclosure. Revenue declined 5.9% y-o-y to SAR 9.2 bn due to lower prices and sales volume in petrochemical products.

On a 9M basis, the company’s net losses reached SAR 3.3 bn, compared to SAR 3.8 bn over the same period last year. Revenue saw an 11.3% decline to SAR 24.4 bn.

Accumulated losses rose to 51.3% of capital (SAR 8.6 bn) in September. A 60-day full shutdown of the production complex, rising feedstock costs, and shipping disruptions in the Red Sea weighed down on the company’s results, according to the disclosure.

FLYNAS-

Saudi carrier flynas reported a 4% y-o-y increase to SAR 87 mn to its adjusted bottom line for 3Q 2025, according to an earnings release (pdf). The low-cost carrier’s top line recorded an inch-up of 6% y-o-y to reach SAR 2.1 bn during the same period.

On a 9M basis: The carrier saw its adjusted net income grow 18% y-o-y to SAR 426 mn in 9M 2025, while its revenues climbed up 3% y-o-y to SAR 6.1 bn during the same period.

Operational highlights: Flynas added nine new jets, boosting its fleet to 68 aircraft during 9M — with two new additional A320neos landing during the quarter, bringing the total new deliveries to seven aircraft YTD. The airline also launched 10 new routes across seven countries.

LOOKING AHEAD- The fleet is expected to grow from 68 to 74 aircraft within the next two months, with a revised 2030 target of 150-160 aircraft, down from 250, Flynas CEO Bandar Al-Mohanna told Al Arabiya. The airline plans to deploy its SAR 4.6 bn liquidity to support the expansion, extend routes across Europe and Asia, and advance its digital transformation.

Making a comeback? Flynas reported a 3% y-o-y drop to SAR 191 mn to its adjusted bottom line in 2Q 2025, while its top line also recorded a slight dip of 1% y-o-y to reach SAR 2.1 bn in 2Q.

BINDAWOOD HOLDING-

BinDawood Holding’s net income went up 14.9% y-o-y to SAR 40.2 mn in 3Q 2025, the company said in an earnings release (pdf). The gains were partially offset by increased operating costs, lower returns from financial deposits, and interest expenses related to financing the acquistion of Zahrat Al Rawdah Pharma.

Revenue rose 12.3% y-o-y to SAR 1.5 bn during the quarter, driven by growth in the core grocery business despite challenging market conditions, supported by the ongoing expansion of the BinDawood and Danube store networks.

On a 9M basis, BinDawood’s net income came in at SAR 156.4 mn, down 8.3% y-o-y, while its revenue climbed 10% y-o-y to SAR 4.7 bn.

ALSO- The company’s board greenlit a SAR 45.6 mn dividend payout for 1H 2025 at SAR 0.04 per share, according to a separate disclosure. The distribution date is set for 18 December.

DAR AL ARKAN-

Real estate giant Dar Al Arkan reported an 89.7% y-o-y increase in net income to SAR 255.6 mn in 3Q 2025, driven by higher property sales and increased project management and contracting revenues, it said in a disclosure to Tadawul. Revenue grew 10.7% to SAR 1 bn during the quarter.

In the first nine months of 2025, the developer’s bottom line rose 55.2% y-o-y to SAR 703.6 mn, while its top line inched up 2% to SAR 2.8 bn.

MBC GROUP-

MBC Group saw its net income rise 8.4% y-o-y to SAR 13.8 mn in 3Q 2025, it said in a disclosure to Tadawul (pdf). Revenue increased 7% y-o-y to SAR 810 mn over the same period, supported by growth in the Shahid streaming segment and media and entertainment initiatives, which offset a decline in broadcasting revenues.

On a 9M basis, the group’s net income jumped 70.8% y-o-y to SAR 427.8 mn, while its revenue climbed nearly 30% y-o-y to SAR 3.8 bn.

SAUDI GROUND SERVICES-

Saudi Ground Services’ (SGS) net income rose 24.3% y-o-y to SAR 101.5 mn in 3Q 2025, it said in a disclosure to Tadawul. Productivity enhancement and expense rationalization underpinned profitability amid modest 2.2% y-o-y top line growth to SAR 683.4 mn.

On a 9M basis, SGS’s net income grew 29.1% y-o-y to SAR 298.5 mn, while its revenue inched up 1.8% y-o-y to SAR 2 bn.

SMASCO-

Saudi Manpower Solutions (Smasco) posted a 40% y-o-y rise in net income to SAR 40.6 mn in 3Q 2025, supported by a 59% jump in gross earnings on the back of stronger demand and profitability initiatives and lower admin expenses, it said in a filing to the bourse yesterday. Meanwhile, revenue grew 15.3% y-o-y to SAR 534.2 mn during the quarter, driven by a 15% increase in corporate demand and an 18% rise in individual demand.

On a 9M basis, Smasco’s net income increased 7.3% y-o-y to SAR 110.6 mn, while its revenue climbed 9.1% y-o-y to SAR 1.5 bn.

Buffett signs off with a message about mistakes, legacy, and the Golden Rule

We’re thinking this morning not about IPO pipelines, gigaprojects, economic indicators, or interest rates, but about the stepping-down of an icon who has been a fixture of the global investing scene for more decades than 99.999% of EnterpriseAM readers have been alive.

Warren Buffett, the so-called Oracle of Omaha, has written his last annual report, saying in his customary Thanksgiving note that he won’t hold the pen on Berkshire Hathaway’s next annual report. (Buffett will step down at year’s end, handing the reins to top lieutenant Greg Abel.)

It’s the end of an era: Buffett’s annual letters were required reading in global finance — so closely read by many in the global business community that they’ve long been treated as market-event pillars. Fans praised Buffett’s folksy, down-to-earth wisdom and the insights he offered on everything from value investing to the allocation of capital and long-term business thinking. The release of a Buffett letter was an “event” for the global business press, which would invariably dissect his missives for witty insights on investment, management, and the state of the US (and global) economy.

Buffett’s concluding message is about forgiveness, second chances, and making the most of life. (Sure, he talks about Berkshire’s transition to Abel and his personal philanthropic plans — but the meat for readers in our corner of the world? It’s in the last couple of pages.)

The best quotes:

Forgive yourself — and learn from your damn mistakes: “I’m happy to say I feel better about the second half of my life than the first. My advice: Don’t beat yourself up over past mistakes — learn at least a little from them and move on. It is never too late to improve.”

Don’t be a jerk: “Remember Alfred Nobel, later of Nobel Prize fame, who — reportedly — read his own obituary that was mistakenly printed when his brother died and a newspaper got mixed up. He was horrified at what he read.”

*Actively* decide how you want to live your life: Nobel, Buffett writes, “realized he should change his behavior. Don’t count on a newsroom mix-up: Decide what you would like your obituary to say and live the life to deserve it.”

Cliché as it may sound from one of the world’s wealthiest men: It’s not all about the money. “Greatness does not come about through accumulating great amounts of money, great amounts of publicity or great power in government. When you help someone in any of thousands of ways, you help the world. Kindness is costless but also priceless. Whether you are religious or not, it’s hard to beat The Golden Rule as a guide to behavior. … Keep in mind that the cleaning lady is as much a human being as the Chairman.”
