M&A WATCH-<\/p>\n

<\/strong>Al Ba<\/strong>btain to become the sole owner of its Portuguese subsidiary:<\/strong> Al Babtain Power and<\/a>Telecommunications<\/a> signed a binding share purchase agreement to acquire the remaining 40% stake (8.5k shares) in its joint venture, Al Babtain Metalogalva, from its Portuguese partner Metalogalva - Irm\u00e3os Silva<\/a> for SAR 8.5 mn, it said in a Tadawul disclosure<\/a> yesterday. <\/p>\n

What will change?<\/strong> Funded through internal resources, the acquisition will give Al Babtain full ownership once the transfer is registered, after which the company will become a Saudi single-shareholder entity, removing all references to the Metalogalva name.<\/p>\n

Earnings snapshot:<\/strong> Al Babtain Metalogalva, which designs and produces steel structures for the solar energy sector, posted a net income of SAR 15.7 mn in 2024, recovering from a net loss of SAR 5.5 mn in 2022. It also logged SAR 414 mn in revenues during the year.<\/p>\n
