<\/strong>UAE-based <\/strong>Nas<\/a><\/strong>Investments Holding<\/a><\/strong> submitted a <\/strong>mandatory tender offer to <\/strong>acquire an additional 57.5% stake in EGX-listed fertilizers<\/a><\/strong>player EgyFert (Samad Misr)<\/strong>, according to a statement (pdf)<\/a>. The move would bring Nas\u2019 total holding in the fertilizers trading company to 90%. <\/p>\n

More details:<\/strong> The transaction would be valued at EGP 522.5 mn (c. USD 10 mn), with Nas offering to purchase EgyFert\u2019s shares at EGP 95.0 apiece, implying a company valuation of EGP 912 mn. The company\u2019s share price hit EGP 95.65<\/a> by market close yesterday. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s been expected:<\/strong> Nas was set on offering to purchase EgyFert earlier last week and had 60 days to submit its offer as per the Financial Regulatory Authority (FRA) regulations. The acquisition would allow the fertilizer\u2019s share to remain listed on the EGX.<\/p>\n

REFRESHER- <\/strong>Nas acquired<\/a> a 32.4% stake in EgyFert in October, purchasing 3.1 mn of the phosphate exporting company MidFert Misr\u2019s shares in the fertilizers trader. The company paid EGP 60 per share, putting the transaction value at some EGP 186.6 mn.<\/p>\n

A boon for EgyFert? <\/strong>EgyFert \u2014 or Samad Misr \u2014 is an Egyptian firm that specializes in the export, import, and general trading of several types of agricultural products, fertilizers, and chemicals. EgyFert \u2014 which saw a large-volume trade of 3.11 mn shares worth EGP 186.6 mn on the EGX back in October<\/a> \u2014 had suspended production back in June<\/a> as a result of fluctuations in the natural gas pipeline network, which forced the firm to put production on hold for an initial 24 hours. <\/p>\n

2025 is already shaping up to be a year marked by increased investor interest in the <\/strong>country\u2019s fertilizer industry<\/strong>, with China\u2019s Asia Potash<\/a> International Investment unveiled plans to set up an export-oriented phosphate fertilizer industrial complex in Upper Egypt that could have a final investment ticket of USD 7-10 bn. The first phase alone will cost USD 1.6 bn.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
