style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"> <strong> Institutional investors still have an appetite for Saudi IPOs:<\/strong> Dar Al Balad for Business Solutions priced its IPO at the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/2026\/04\/27\/dar-al-balad-tests-wartime-appetite-for-tech-stocks\/\" style=\"\">top of its guiding range<\/a> at SAR 9.75 per share \u2014 implying a transaction size of around SAR 205 mn (USD 55 mn) \u2014 after the institutional book-build came in 66.6x oversubscribed, the company said in its <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/2026\/5\/185.pdf\" style=\"\">final price announcement (pdf)<\/a> yesterday.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>What it means for valuation:<\/strong> The pricing values the company at SAR 682 mn (USD 182 mn) \u2014 or roughly 13.5x its 2025 net income of SAR 51 mn. Not cheap for an IT services firm, but not out of line with the multiples Tadawul-listed tech names have been trading at.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Why it matters: <\/strong>As the first Gulf IPO since the war broke out in late February, this level of oversubscription is the clearest data point yet on whether institutional money is still willing to put capital to work in Saudi and the region.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">What\u2019s next?<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Retail gets its turn:<\/strong> Individual subscriptions kick off on Sunday, 10 May and run through Thursday, 14 May. Retail allocations are capped at 6.3 mn shares (30% of the offering), with a 10-share floor and a 100k-share ceiling per applicant. Final allocations land on 18 May and refunds will be processed by 21 May.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Tranche dynamics:<\/strong> The issuance manager can shrink the share allocated to public funds from 30% to as little as 21% (4.41 mn shares) if retail demand turns out as strong as the institutional response suggests. That means the more retail investors pile in, the less public funds get.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Listing date:<\/strong> Tadawul will announce the start of trading once the regulatory housekeeping is wrapped up, but if the timeline holds, expect shares to start changing hands in the back half of May.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>What we\u2019re watching:<\/strong> Whether Berain \u2014 the bottled water player whose CMA approval <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/2026\/04\/22\/dar-al-balad-is-going-ahead-with-tadawul-listing-war-or-no-war\/\" style=\"\">landed the same day<\/a> Dar Al Balad published its prospectus \u2014 moves quickly to take advantage of the same window.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<hr style=\"height:2px;border-width:0;color:gray;background-color:gray\">\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>ADVISORS- <\/strong>AlJazira Capital is quarterbacking the transaction as financial advisor, lead manager, and underwriter.

The project features 26 bridges and tunnels, aiming to reduce travel time from three hours to 90 minutes.

Plus, Greater Abha is getting a ground-based metro-style system \u2014 connecting Abha, Khamis Mushait, and Al Majardah with the rest of the region \u2014 to manage congestion during peak seasons, he added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>A new airport, and a bigger arrival gate for Aseer:<\/strong> A new Aseer airport also entered the final bidding stages for development, Amir said. It will be built north of the existing airport and will eventually increase capacity to 12 mn passengers annually. Construction is expected to kick off in early 2027, with completion targeted within five years. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Aseer is a hard region to traverse. <\/strong>Between the 3k-meter peaks of Al Soudah and some 4k scattered villages, the geography is a puzzle. Throw in heavy rain and thick mountain fog, and you can see why the transport network needs a more planned, bespoke approach compared to flatter urban hubs like Riyadh.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The stadium\u2019s also getting an expansion: <\/strong>Work has kicked off on King Khalid University Stadium\u2019s expansion to a 45k-seat capacity, with implementation expected to begin by the end of this year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">Hospitality is getting an injection too<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Getting Aseer\u2019s hotels World Cup-ready:<\/strong> Some SAR 5 bn in private-sector investment has been pumped into the region \u2014 most of which is going to hospitality and hotel projects to expand Abha\u2019s hotel capacity to 15k rooms for the World Cup. Meanwhile, the flagship, PIF-backed, SAR 15 bn luxury entertainment and hotel project <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/2025\/09\/25\/aseer-is-in-the-forefront-of-saudi-push-to-narrow-regional-economic-gap\/\" style=\"\">Soudah Peaks<\/a> is expected to break ground within a year and wrap up within three to five years. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">A broader tourism play<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Hedging risk through geo-diversification:<\/strong> Aseer has been <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/2025\/06\/01\/ardara-launches-lifestyle-hub-al-wadi-amid-aseer-investment-push\/\" style=\"\">working to attract<\/a> some SAR 15 bn in private investments to make the region a year-round tourism destination. The recent push to develop Aseer\u2019s infrastructure and touristic capabilities signals a move to decentralize the Kingdom\u2019s tourism portfolio away from Riyadh and the Red Sea. By developing the southern highlands, the Kingdom is creating a more diversified tourism map that can mitigate the impact of regional geopolitical tensions.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/tag\/infrastructure\/\">infrastructure<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/tag\/tourism\/\">tourism<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"108427 advertiser\" class=\"issue-section enterprise-adv\">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                            \"\r\n            id=\"108427\">\r\n            \r\n            <div class=\"story__body\">\r\n\r\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/2026\/05\/05\/108427\/\">\r\n                    <div class=\"photo photo--above\">\r\n                                            <\/div>\r\n                <\/a>\r\n\r\n                \n<article id=\"post-108427\" class=\"content-area-description single-story post-108427 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-advertiser wpautop entry\">\n\n\t\n\t<div class=\"entry-content\">\n\n\t\t\n\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasheelfinance.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ent.news\/2024\/12\/1942.jpg?ssl=1\"><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"108428\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"108428\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">5<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">Entertainment<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/2026\/05\/05\/breaking-down-desert-warriors-flop\/\">\r\n                            Desert Warrior disappoints                        <\/a>\r\n                    <\/h3>\r\n\r\n                    \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cta\">\n    <div class=\"cta__btn share-dropdown-cta dropdown-toggle-btn\" style=\"position:relative\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/internal\/408834.svg\" alt=\"\">\n        Share Story\n        <!-- Dropdown Menu -->\n        <ul class=\"share-menu\">\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/2026\/05\/05\/breaking-down-desert-warriors-flop\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    Open in new tab                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/new-tab.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();

Recovering anything close to the production budget at the box office is off the table, and industry headlines are now placing Desert Warrior <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aol.com\/saudi-backed-desert-warrior-grosses-114412283.html\" style=\"\">alongside the costliest flops<\/a> in cinema history.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>A troubled road to the screen:<\/strong> The film was already wounded long before it reached the box office. Principal photography wrapped in February 2022, but a lengthy and difficult post-production stretched the timeline by four years. Director Rupert Wyatt \u2014 of Planet of the Apes fame \u2014 briefly walked away from the project in October 2024 over creative differences before returning to finish editing, with Gary Ross brought in for uncredited rewrites along the way. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Distribution was another headache:<\/strong> Film distributor Vertical only acquired the rights in February 2026, and industry sources flagged that Desert Warrior struggled to identify a clear demographic, looking like a big-budget Hollywood film without a compelling narrative.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The war might have put an extra damper on it.<\/strong> The release <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/rollingout.com\/2026\/05\/03\/anthony-mackies-desert-warrior\/\" style=\"\">landed in the middle of the most<\/a><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/rollingout.com\/2026\/05\/03\/anthony-mackies-desert-warrior\/\" style=\"\">disruptive regional crisis<\/a> in years, with audiences across the GCC preoccupied by the US-Iran conflict, the Hormuz fallout, and rolling security alerts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The silver lining:<\/strong> Desert Warrior is the most expensive production ever shot in the Kingdom, with principal photography in Neom and Tabuk, and Saudi crews receiving on-the-job training as part of the broader push to build out a domestic film industry. The USD 150 mn spend built filmmaking infrastructure in Saudi Arabia that future productions can continue to draw on, meaning the strategic case might not collapse with the box office.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>What to watch:<\/strong> Whether decision makers read Desert Warrior as a timing problem (war + a troubled five-year post-production) or a strategic one (Saudi tentpoles can\u2019t crack global audiences). New projects are already in the pipeline, including Unbroken Sword from Game of Thrones director Alik Sakharov. The bigger question for the sector is whether the next big swing lands in a calmer geopolitical window to truly test the case for big Saudi productions.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/tag\/entertainment\/\">entertainment<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/tag\/film\/\">film<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/tag\/mbc\/\">MBC<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"108430\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"108430\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">6<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">EARNINGS WATCH<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/2026\/05\/05\/earnings-are-in-from-health-ins-players\/\">\r\n                            Earnings season heats up                        <\/a>\r\n                    <\/h3>\r\n\r\n                    \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cta\">\n    <div class=\"cta__btn share-dropdown-cta dropdown-toggle-btn\" style=\"position:relative\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/internal\/408834.svg\" alt=\"\">\n        Share Story\n        <!-- Dropdown Menu -->\n        <ul class=\"share-menu\">\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/2026\/05\/05\/earnings-are-in-from-health-ins-players\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    Open in new tab                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/new-tab.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();
