Helios to acquire up to 80% stake in Telecom Egypt’s data center unit

1

What we're tracking today

TODAY: Helios eyes stake in Telecom Egypt’s data center unit + Emirates new financing

Good morning, folks. It’s a packed issue as we begin the week, with M&A, debt, storage, and trade updates from across the region. Undersea cable fibers in the Red Sea were also cut, disrupting services for the UAE, India, and Pakistan, while also slowing down the speed for users of Microsoft Azure’s cloud services. Let’s get the ball rolling.

WATCH THIS SPACE-

#1- Internet connectivity in the Middle East and parts of Asia was disrupted over the weekend by undersea cable cuts in the Red Sea, the Associated Press reported yesterday. Internet monitor NetBlocks traced the outages to the SMW4 and IMEWE cable systems near Jeddah, affecting users in the UAE, India, and Pakistan.

Users of Microsoft’s Azure cloud services were impacted, with the firm saying that users with traffic traversing through the Middle East might experience “increased latency due to undersea fiber cuts.”

The cause of the outages is unclear, with concern that the cables could have been targeted by Yemen’s Houthi rebels, who have denied attacking the lines in the past after a similar incident in early 2024.

What’s next? Repairs to subsea cables typically take weeks. Around 15% of global internet traffic passes through Red Sea cables.

#2- Etihad Airways is weighing bulk buying aircraft parts and storing them in local warehouses for on-demand access — in a bid to sidestep supply chain gridlocks from planemarkers, Bloomberg reports. The bulk purchases are aimed at lowering downtime for jets undergoing retrofits in a bid to minimize network disruptions as the Abu Dhabi-based carrier rolls out a USD 1 bn retrofit program for its existing fleet. Etihad is also bringing two more Airbus A380s — which it had planned to permanently retire — back to service due to delivery delays.

Outdated certification processes are also weighing down progress. Certain certification requirements for jet components — enforced by the Federal Aviation Administration and the EU Aviation Safety Agency — are driving delays that are affecting the carrier’s expansion plans.

REMEMBER- Growth is on Etihad’s agenda: The Abu Dhabi-based airline is aiming to add 22 aircraft to its fleet this year, part of its push to reach 170 jets by 2030, CEO Antonoaldo Neves said earlier this year.

#3- Sudan’s gold exports disrupted amid UAE ban: The UAE’s decision to bar all trade with Sudan is leading Sudan to seek other buyers for its gold imports, including Oman and Bahrain, Bloomberg reports. The Emirati ban — enacted last month — includes shipments in transit from Asia and other Gulf countries, according to a Sudanese Transportation Ministry document seen by Bloomberg. The UAE stands out as Sudan’s largest trading partner — with total bilateral goods flow hitting USD 2.2 bn in 2024.

The Sudanese government has already reached a preliminary agreement with Oman to uptake its product, two officials told the business information service. A Sudanese mining ministry delegation also visited Oman and Bahrain last week to explore alternative shipment routes for the gold, the officials added.

IN CONTEXT- The update comes after a diplomatic rift between Sudan and the UAE reportedly led AD Ports to stop handling cargo destined for, or coming from, Port Sudan earlier this month. The trade halt, which includes a ports ban on handling vessels originating from Sudanese ports, has also disrupted landlocked South Sudan’s crude flows.

#4- Noon considers dual listing in Saudi Arabia, UAE: KSA-based e-commerce company Noon is mulling a dual listing on the Saudi and UAE stock exchanges within the next two years as it moves toward profitability, founder Mohamed Alabbar told the Financial Times on Friday.

More than IPOs in the works: The company is expanding its automated self-delivery services, aiming to cut its 40k delivery workforce by half by 2027. Noon is also exploring mergers and acquisitions to expand into new markets like India, Alabbar said.

Noon — founded in 2016 — operates across the Kingdom, the UAE, and Egypt, and raised around USD 2.7 bn from investors, including the Public Investment Fund. The company is currently valued at about USD 10 bn.

#5- SAR seeks bids for Riyadh railway link: Saudi Arabia Railways (SAR) has invited contractors to submit expressions of interest to build a 35-km line linking the Kingdom’s North-South and Eastern railway networks via Riyadh, Meed reported last week. The railway link is part of the USD 7 bn Landbridge project connecting the Kingdom’s Red Sea coast to GCC countries in the east through six railway lines and seven logistics centers. The project is scheduled for completion by 2030.

The ball is rolling: Saudi Arabia launched a tender for lead design consultancy services on the Landbridge project in April, with construction set to begin this year. SAR awarded the project’s management contract in 2023 to a consortium comprising US-based construction management firm Hill International, Italian consulting firm Italferr, and Spanish engineering firm Sener — whereas a Saudi-China consortium led by SAR, China Civil Engineering Construction Company, and Al Ayuni will lead implementation.

The Landbridge project: Once complete, the project will include over 1.5k km of new tracks across Saudi Arabia. At its core is a new 900-km rail line connecting Riyadh to King Abdullah Port on the western coast — along with a new coastal link between King Abdullah Port and Yanbu’s ports, and upgrades to existing lines such as the Riyadh-Dammam rail.

MARKET WATCH-

#1- Oil prices surged this morning as fears of shortages due to possible sanctions on Russia outweighed concerns of oversupply after the Opec+ production hike, Reuters reports. Brent crude futures increased by USD 0.80 to reach USD 66.30 / bbl by 03.45 GMT, while US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) gained USD 0.75 to trade at USD 62.62 / bbl.

About the Opec+ hike: Opec+ approved a production surge for an additional 137k bbl / d from October as part of its accelerated rollback supply cuts, according to a press release. The group said that it will continue monthly hikes through September 2026, fast-tracking the return of 1.65 mn bbl / d that was previously set to stay offline until end-2026.

Blindsiding the market: Analysts said Riyadh was unlikely to push more barrels into the market immediately, as the Kingdom seeks to balance its market-share play against the risk of adding to a surplus and pressuring prices further. The bloc has already added some 2.5 mn bbl/d since starting output hikes in April, reversing its 2023 supply curbs. Crude has stayed near USD 70/bbl, supported by Western sanctions on Russia and Iran, and by Opec+ supply falling short of pledges.

BUT- Most members are already pumping at or near capacity, leaving Saudi Arabia and the UAE as the only producers able to meaningfully increase supply, Reuters reports, citing analysts and production data.

#2- Baltic index maintains upwards trajectory: The Baltic Exchange’s dry bulk sea freight index — which tracks rates for the capesize, panamax, and supramax vessel segments — increased 0.8% to 1,979 points on Friday, driven by the larger segments. The capesize gained 0.7% to 2,835 points, while the panamax index climbed 2.5 % to 1,802 points. The smaller supramax index fell by 2.3% to 1,465 points.

#3- The Drewry World Container Index fell by 1% to USD 2,104 per 40-ft container on Thursday, according to the latest index readings. The drop comes on the back of market turbulence driven by the ongoing US tariffs’ bonanza since April. The container forecaster projects the supply-demand balance to fall in 2H 2025, causing spot rates to fall further.

PSA-

Hapag-Lloyd to roll out PSS: Shipping giant Hapag-Lloyd will add a new peak season surcharge (PSS) of USD 100 per 20-ft and 40-ft reefer cargo container coming from India’s Nhava Sheva to Iraq’s Umm Qasr, according to a statement. The PSS will take effect starting 18 September and is applicable until further notice.

Helios eyes up to 80% of Telecom Egypt’s data center hub

Helios eyes majority in Telecom Egypt’s data center unit: Africa-focused and London-based PE outfit Helios Investment Partners has secured preliminary approval from Telecom Egypt’s board to acquire 75-80% of the subsidiary that will own the telco’s Regional Data Hub (RDH) assets, according to a press release (pdf). The proposed binding offer values RDH at USD 230 mn for 100% of the equity, with the figure potentially rising to USD 260 mn based on performance.

What we know: The unnamed vehicle, set to house RDH’s assets via a restructuring, will focus on developing the domestic data center scene. The transaction is still subject to regulatory approval and customary closing conditions. A final fair value determination will be carried out by an independent financial advisor licensed by the Financial Regulatory Authority.

The assets in question: Telecom Egypt’s RDH assets include the fully utilized 2.5 MW RDH I data center as well as its 4.5 MW RDH II center — currently under construction, with completion scheduled by year-end, according to a statement from November. Both assets received the tier III design certificate, meaning they feature independent and redundant power and cooling systems that ensure resilient operations in cases of disruptions.

Helios Investment Partners’ been building up to a bigger Egypt play since last year, when it bought 49% of Raya Foods for USD 40 mn. The PE firm flagged plans to channel as much as USD 250 mn into three more acquisitions across fintech, digital infrastructure, and consumer goods.

ADVISORS- EFG Hermes is acting as sole M&A financial advisor to Telecom Egypt, with Adsero-Ragy Soliman and Partners and A&O Shearman providing counsel.

ICYMI- Egypt is emerging as a key African data center market — alongside Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa, as the continent’s sector is projected to expand 17.5% y-o-y over the next year, according to the African Data Center Association. The country’s location, digital initiatives, and grid connectivity are drawing investors in — with rising demand for cloud services supporting its role as a hub for locally hosted content.

IN OTHER M&A UPDATES-

Adia could join USD 1.6 bn Yondr acquisition: The Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (Adia) is likely to participate in global operator Vantage Data Centers’ potential USD 1.6 bn acquisition of London-headquartered Yondr Group, Bloomberg reports, citing unnamed sources. The acquisition would see Vantage take over the hyperscale data center developer’s Malaysia assets. While the transaction value could change as talks are ongoing, a takeover would boost their joint backer DigitalBridge’s portfolio.

REMEMBER- Abu Dhabi is already familiar with both Yondr and DigitalBridge. Last year, Adia acquired a 40% stake in Landmark Dividend — a DigitalBridge subsidiary — while Abu Dhabi-based sovereign wealth fund Mubadala invested in Yondr. Yondr later sought USD 500 mn in debt to back a project in Malaysia, which is emerging as a key base for Southeast Asia’s data centers.

NBD grants Emirates USD 350 mn aircraft financing to onboard two new jets

Emirates taps NBD to finance two new freighter planes: Emirates NBD has inked a USD 350 mn financing agreement with Dubai-based airline Emirates for two Boeing 777-200 long-range freighter aircraft, according to a statement published on Thursday. The mortgage-style facility will support the jets’ delivery and Emirates’ broader plans to expand its SkyCargo arm.

A landmark agreement: The facility marks a milestone for NBD — marking the bank’s first aircraft-dedicated funding partnership. For Emirates, this will be the carrier’s first time opting for a direct, mortgage-style financing structure, barring a traditional offshore special purpose company setup.

On a cargo expansion spree: Emirates ordered five additional Boeing 777 freighters back in October last year — originally slated for a 2025-2026 delivery — bringing its total freighter orderbook to 21. Emirates Skycargo is set to double its existing fleet of 11 units to 21 production-built Boeing 777s by December 2026.

REMEMBER- The airline is coping with industry-wide supply chain disruptions, pivoting to a USD 5 bn retrofitting plan aimed at extending the operational life of existing jets as it waits for delayed deliveries.

This isn’t Emirates’ first rodeo with banks. Emirates tapped HSBC back in March as its sole senior arranger and original lender to finance the purchase of four more Airbus A350-900 jets — marking the airline’s return to the Japanese operating lease with call option (Jolco) market.

Oman to store Iraqi crude, Baghdad hedges against Hormuz disruption

Oman + Iraq partner on crude storage: Subsidiaries of Oman’s OQ Group — Oman Tank Terminal Company (Ottco) and OQ Trading — have signed an MoU with the Iraqi Oil Marketing Company (Somo) to store Iraqi crude oil in Oman’s Special Economic Zone at Duqm (Sezad), ONA reported last week. The project is slated for an initial capacity of 10 mn barrels and will be based in Sezad’s Ras Markaz oil terminal — outside the Strait of Hormuz, a potential supply bottleneck. The timeline and investment ticket were not disclosed.

A geographic advantage: Located on Oman’s Indian Ocean coastline, Ras Markaz is touted as an alternative to terminals hemmed in by the Strait of Hormuz, which Iranian authorities threatened to close earlier this year. Ottco has operated the facility since 2023, with its first phase boasting a capacity of 25 mn crude oil barrels, according to the OQ subsidiary’s website. Customers can import, export, or store as much as 20 mn barrels, with the remaining capacity allotted to Duqm’s OQ8 Refinery.

There’s more: As per a second MoU, OQ Trading will market Iraqi oil to international markets in a bid to raise the crude’s commercial value, the outlet reports.

What they said: Somo and the OQ Group are looking to store Iraqi oil outside the Strait of Hormuz, closer to global shipping lanes, the outlet quotes Somo General Manager Ali Nizar Al Shatri as saying. The move will also provide a reliable alternative to sustaining Iraqi exports, he added.

ICYMI- State-owned OQ invested some USD 10 bn in several Duqm projects as of late 2023, including the Ras Markaz Oil Storage Terminal. Sezad meanwhile inaugurated an OMR 58 mn road project linking Duqm Airport with the terminal earlier this year.

Israel halts its USD 35 bn gas export agreement with Egypt as Egyptian-Israeli relations grow tense

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has frozen his country’s USD 35 bn natural gas export agreement with Egypt last week, amid rising Israeli-Egyptian tensions over the war in Gaza and Cairo’s military deployments in Sinai, industry publication Middle East Economic Survey (Mees) reported on Friday.

But why? Netanyahu reportedly decided to freeze the agreement due to Egyptian military deployment in Sinai — which Israel claims violates the 1979 Camp David Accords. Israel had already breached the accords, occupying the Philadelphi Corridor back in May 2024 during its ground offensive into southern Gaza.

Egypt’s information czar claps back: State Information Service chief Diaa Rashwan had strong words for Netanyahu in an interview with Al Mashhad’s Moataz Abdel Fattah (watch, runtime: 22:05). “I dare him to cancel the gas agreement — if he can bear the economic consequences,” he said, adding that Egypt has more than one option when it comes to energy. “The Israeli prime minister is completely delusional if he thinks Israel is our only route for gas. The Egyptian administration has alternatives.”

REMEMBER- The agreement, signed in early August, would see Leviathan partners — led by Chevron and Israel’s NewMed Energy — export 130 bcm of gas to Egypt between 2026 and 2040. Flows will first increase from 4.5 bcm in 2025 to 6.5 bcm as early as 2026 under the first 20-bcm phase of the agreement. Shortly after the agreement was signed, Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly said that it will in no way affect Egypt’s stance on Palestine.

Even before Netanyahu’s freeze, there were logistical and commercial obstacles standing in the way of fully executing the agreement. The first phase — covering 20 bcm in supplies starting next year or upon Leviathan’s capacity expansion — hinges on the partners reaching a final investment decision to scale the field to 2.1 bcf/d. The Israeli Energy Ministry green lit the development plan in August.

But the second phase to supply 110 bcm starting 2029, could prove more challenging. It requires agreement on capacity allocations for the planned 600 mcf/d Nitzana pipeline connecting Israel to Egypt. Israel’s Energy Ministry approved a transportation agreement for the pipeline on 4 September — adding more color to what a government source told EnterpriseAM last week about construction of the pipeline starting next year. Still, disagreements persist over how Leviathan and Tamar partners will share the costs and split pipeline capacity.

What’s next? “Israeli Energy Minister Eli Cohen will have the final say on whether the agreement is finalized, at least from the Israeli side, though it remains to be seen if he will oppose Netanyahu on the matter,” Mees writes.

The elephant in the room: Netanyahu said over the weekend that Egypt was “imprisoning Gaza residents who want to leave the war zone against their will,” adding that he would let Gazans escape their country through the Rafah Border if they wanted to, but Egypt is blocking their exit. Following his statement, the Egyptian Foreign Ministry once again reiterated its stance regarding the displacement of Palestinians and referred to Netanyahu’s remarks as “an attempt to prolong the escalation and instability, and avoid confronting the consequences of Israeli violations in Gaza.”

Updates on all things logistics from Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait, Egypt, and the UAE

ZONES-

#1- Qatar FreeZones Authority (QFZ) and FedEx Logistics launched a logistics facility at Ras Bufontas Freezone, QNA reported on Saturday. The facility — operated by FedEx Logistics Qatar — spans around 1.2k sqm and comprises warehousing, storage, and office spaces. It is expected to serve as a key freight hub connecting major markets in Asia, Europe, and North America, leveraging its close proximity to Hamad International Airport.

We knew this was coming: QFZ and FedEx Logistics inked an MoU to launch a logistics facility in Ras Bufontas last year, shortly after QFZ inaugurated 20 regional distribution hubs in the zone.

#2- China’s ShuanFeng will build a USD 8 mn garment factory in Qantara West under a contract it signed with the Suez Canal Economic Zone, according to a statement. The 20k sqm project will be self-financed, create 2k direct jobs, and produce 16.5 mn pieces annually, all earmarked for export.

Its energy arm is active in procuring, transporting, and distributing LNG and crude oil, alongside trading refined petroleum products.

SHIPPING + MARITIME-

UAE port operator DP World is launching a new shipping service — Atlas — connecting Morocco’s Agadir and Casablanca to the company’s port terminals in London and Belgium’s Antwerp, Morocco World News reported on Thursday. The service will launch with two DP World-owned Unifeeder vessels on 18 September, though official operations are scheduled for November 2025.

The details: Atlas aims to cut export and shipping times for fruits and vegetables by up to two days, providing a faster alternative for land transport, according to the outlet. The service will move up to 150k tons of fresh produce annually and reduce CO2 emissions by up to 250 kg per ton-km.

DATA POINT- Morocco exports over 6.5 mn tons of fruits and vegetables to Western Europe every year.

DATA CENTERS-

Arvato launches data center project in UAE: German logistics and supply chain management and e-commerce firm Arvato has launched a new data center logistics operation in Dubai’s CommerCity — a freezone dedicated to digital commerce, according to a press release published last week. Arvato will provide hyperscaling capabilities to an unnamed leading global cloud provider, as well as transportation, warehousing, and white-glove delivery services for data center equipment, the press release said.

Arvato is already active in Dubai: Arvato launched a 3.3k sqm warehouse in CommerCity earlier this year, offering — among other services — general warehousing and fulfillment, spanning from inbound to outbound operations.

Japanese-led group acquires Air Lease Corp for USD 7.4 bn

Japan-based Sumitomo Corp acquired US-based Air Lease Corp for USD 7.4 bn, Bloomberg reported last week. The total price, including debt obligations, amounts to USD 28.2 bn, whereas the purchase price represents an 8% premium over Air Lease’s last closing price.

Who’s involved? Among the buyers are Ireland-based leasing firm SMBC Aviation Capital and asset management outfits Apollo and Brookfield. Air Lease Group — which reportedly owns 544 aircraft — will be renamed Sumisho Air Lease and its orderbook of 260 aircraft will be transferred to SMBC Aviation.

ADVISORS- J.P. Morgan Securities is serving as Air Lease’s financial advisor, with Skadden Arps Slate Meagher and Flom as counsel, according to a press release published last week.

Not their first rodeo: SMBC Aviation Capital — itself owned by Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group and Sumitomo Corp — acquired rival aircraft lessor Goshawk Management in 2022. The firm agreed to acquire Goshawk for an enterprise value of USD 6.7 bn.
