Good morning, wonderful people, and happy hump day. <\/strong>A relative news lull \u2014 compared to a few months now of a consistently busy newsflow \u2014 continues, with the earnings season continuing to dominate, alongside a healthy dose of M&A.<\/span><\/p>\n

A big M&A story to keep an eye on this morning:<\/strong> RedBird IMI\u2019s sale of British publications the Telegraph and Spectator, following months of controversy and opposition from UK government officials. We have more in the news well, below.<\/p>\n

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT-<\/p>\n

<\/a> #1- Dubai\u2019s private schools, nurseries, and universities are back to distance learning tomorrow and after as the<\/strong> country braces for another storm<\/strong>, the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA) said in a statement on X<\/a> yesterday. <\/p>\n

The storm is not expected to be as bad as the last one,<\/strong> National Center of Meteorology weather specialist Ahmed Habib told Khaleej Times<\/a>. Tomorrow and after will likely be the \u201cpeak,\u201d with rainfall expected to begin from the west tonight, extending over most areas of the country tomorrow and after. Expect moderate to heavy rainfall, thunder and lightning, and a probability of hail. <\/p>\n

The weather is still warm today<\/strong>, with a high of 39\u00b0C in Dubai and 40\u00b0C in Abu Dhabi, and overnight lows of 29-30\u00b0C. Temperatures will cool down significantly to 28\u00b0C tomorrow in both emirates. <\/p>\n

\n

<\/a> #2- You\u2019ll be paying more at the pump this month:<\/strong> Fuel prices climbed for the fourth consecutive month, marking a seven-month high for May, the Emirates General Petroleum Company (Emarat) said in a post on X<\/a>. Diesel prices will be lower for the month.<\/p>\n

The breakdown:<\/strong> Super 98 is now AED 3.34 per liter, Special 95 is now AED 3.22, and E-Plus 91 now costs AED 3.15. Diesel is now AED 3.07 per liter, down from AED 3.09 last month.<\/p>\n

WATCH THIS SPACE-<\/p>\n

<\/a> #1- Abu Dhabi-based carrier e& is mulling a potential acquisition of Eastern <\/strong>European <\/strong>telecom provider United Group BV<\/strong>, Bloomberg<\/a> reports, citing people familiar with the matter. United Group\u2019s private equity owner BC Partner is eying a valuation target of around EUR 8 bn (AED 31.4 bn), according to one of the sources. Discussions are still ongoing with no conclusive agreement. e& has not submitted a formal bid for the Eastern European company. <\/p>\n

United Group will go through a formal sale process next month<\/strong>, with the possibility of multiple buyers acquiring parts of the business.<\/p>\n

\n

#2- UAE banks are expected to maintain robust performance throughout 2024<\/strong>, buoyed by the prevailing interest rate levels observed thus far, S&P analysts said during a GCC credit rating trends meeting, Wam<\/a> reports. UAE banks\u2019 asset quality remains strong, with low levels of non-performing loans as well as a 100% coverage ratio, \u201cwhich is more than adequate,\u201d according to S&P financial institution ratings analyst Mohamed Damak.<\/p>\n

S&P predicts three interest rate cuts in 2H 2024, <\/strong>\u201ctotaling 75 basis points,\u201d followed by further cuts of 125 basis points in 2025, Damak said.<\/p>\n

The UAE's ins. sector will likely see continued profitability and premium growth<\/strong>, fueled by regional development projects, according to S&P director and senior analyst of ins. ratings, Emir Mujkic.<\/p>\n

The Maktoum Airport <\/strong>expansion plans<\/a><\/strong> are also expected to vitalize the economy and Dubai\u2019s real estate sector in particular<\/strong>, according to S&P corporate ratings analyst Tatiana Liskova. \u201cThe workforce at the airport itself and in the surrounding projects will create significant demand for housing in the areas nearby the airport,\u201d Liskova said.<\/p>\n

#2- The design plan for the <\/strong>USD 35 bn new<\/a><\/strong>passenger<\/a><\/strong>terminal<\/a><\/strong> at Al Maktoum International Airport includes a \u201cmassive leap\u201d in aviation technology<\/strong>, including AI and electric aircraft to cut down on travel time, plus investments in solar power, waste treatment, and biofuels, Dubai Airports CEO Paul Griffiths told <\/span>The National<\/a> on Monday. Investment in advanced technology solutions come as air travel demand puts \u201cextraordinary pressure\u201d on existing infrastructure and airline resources, with the number of air travelers set to double to 8 bn annually by 2040.<\/span><\/p>\n

REFRESHER-<\/strong> The expanded airport is set to be the world\u2019s largest, hosting over 260 mn passengers, handling 12 mn tons of annual cargo, accommodating around 400 aircraft gates, and featuring five parallel runways. It will be five times larger than Dubai International Airport (DXB), with plans to transfer all operations from DXB within 10 years.<\/p>\n

\n

#3- Expansion plans for Zayed International Airport:<\/strong> Around 174 operational units in the Zayed International Airport\u2019s dutyfree market, including restaurants, caf\u00e9s, and shops, are expected to open by the end of 2024, Abu Dhabi Airports CEO Elena Sorlini told Al Etihad<\/a>. The Abu Dhabi airport will also grow its network of airline partners in 2024.<\/p>\n

#4- The Loss and D<\/strong>amage Fund kickstarted its first board meeting in Abu Dhabi: <\/strong>COP28 President Sultan Al Jaber kicked off the inaugural board meeting of the Loss and Damage Fund yesterday in a speech calling for urgent and efficient progress on the Fund's financing operations, Wam<\/a> reports. Al Jaber stated that the initial USD 792 mn in funding arrangements pledged to the fund in last year\u2019s COP \u201cwas a good start\u201d but \u201cis not enough,\u201d the news outlet writes. The meeting will wrap tomorrow.<\/p>\n

<\/a> #5- Energy company Dana Gas has taken steps to resume operations at its Khor Mor gas <\/strong>field in Iraq<\/strong>, after suspending operations following a drone attack that killed at least four Yemeni workers, Reuters<\/a> reports, citing a statement. Local officials told Reuters that resumption could take place within hours, but the statement did not clarify an exact time. The company said the Baghdad and Erbil governments \u201csignificantly\u201d strengthened defenses at the gas field, and will resume operations in phases. <\/p>\n

FACT CHECK-<\/p>\n

Our friends at Mashreq have not received banking licenses in Saudi Arabia, Oman <\/strong>and Pakistan<\/strong>, the lender said in a DFM disclosure (pdf)<\/a>, denying recent media reports suggesting it had earned these licenses. Mashreq also confirmed in the disclosure that it is in preliminary stages to expand the lender\u2019s activities in the aforementioned countries. <\/p>\n

HAPPENING TODAY- <\/p>\n

<\/a> #1- Spinneys is set to price its IPO today<\/strong>, following a book building process that saw \u201csignificant\u201d oversubscription<\/a> over the past week. The final pricing for the IPO is expected to be at the top end of the indicative price range at AED 1.53, which would see the company raising AED 1.38 bn (USD 375 mn), according to the terms of the transaction seen by Bloomberg.<\/p>\n

More retail shares will be on offer after Spinneys boosted the retail tranche to 7%<\/strong> of the offering from 5% originally, according to a statement (pdf)<\/a> from the company. The institutional tranche has been nudged down to 93% of the offering to accommodate the increase.<\/p>\n

Refresher: <\/strong>The company plans to offer a total of 900 mn of its shares<\/a> \u2014 good for a 25% stake \u2014 on the Dubai Financial Market (DFM), with shares expected to begin trading on 9 May. The IPO will be among the first by a family-owned business in the UAE.<\/p>\n

#2- The two-day DFM\u2019s Capital Market Summit kicks off today in Madinat Jumeirah, Dubai. <\/strong>The summit is set to bring together officials from regional stock exchanges, investment banks, and listed companies, to discuss capital markets trends, sustainable investing, as well as the impact of AI and crypto on the sector. <\/p>\n

#3- <\/strong>The US Federal Reserve\u2019s open markets committee wraps up a <\/strong>two-day meeting. <\/strong>Everyone and her cousin will be reading the sheep\u2019s entrails afterward in search of clues as to its current thinking on when rate cuts might begin. <\/p>\n

#4- A UAE-Iran joint economic commission is meeting today <\/strong>in Abu Dhabi, in a bid to strengthen economic ties between Gulf states amid US pressure, Reuters<\/a> reports, citing the Iranian Labour News Agency. The meeting, which reportedly started yesterday, is the first of the bilateral joint economic cooperation commission in a decade. <\/p>\n

What\u2019s on the agenda? <\/strong>Economy Minister Abdulla Bin Touq Al Marri and Iranian Roads and Urban Development Minister Mehdi Bazrpash are set to discuss ramping up cooperation between the countries in international trade corridors, while private sector representatives will focus on trade and investment.<\/p>\n

Fast facts: <\/strong>The UAE isIran\u2019s top import source, with Iran importing USD 20.8 bn worth of goods from the Emirates in its last fiscal year, which ended in March 2024. The country is also Iran's third top export destination, with USD 6.6 bn worth of goods exported during the period.<\/p>\n

OUR NEXT CONFERENCE IN CAIRO-<\/p>\n

Foreign investors are falling in love with Egypt again\u2026<\/strong> Foreign investors we speak with (debt, equity, and strategic alike) have growing appetite for Egypt. They\u2019re buying into local debt, eyeing promising shares, and committing bns of USD to both new ventures here and the growth of their existing businesses. They like the Egypt story that\u2019s taking shape after the float of the EGP, and its competitive advantages are clear to many of them: It\u2019s a massive consumer opportunity and a regional export hub of tomorrow.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Enterprise Optimism Forum 2024 will do exactly what it says on the tin: <\/strong>Spark conversations about a future that sees Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and the the UAE at the heart of a more vital Middle East economy \u2014 and provide an early, actionable roadmap for those who are \u201clong Egypt.\u201d<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll be talking with you about the agenda over the coming couple of weeks. <\/strong>It features speakers from Egypt and abroad who are future-proofing their businesses and angling to capture tomorrow\u2019s opportunities \u2014 and who aren\u2019t afraid to answer some tough questions. <\/p>\n

THE BIG STORY ABROAD- <\/p>\n

Just a couple of stories are getting very wide play in the global business press <\/strong>on an otherwise very quiet Wednesday morning. It\u2019s a national holiday today from much of Europe (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden) to India, Korea, and Latin America in observance of labor day.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the rundown on what\u2019s making headlines:<\/p>\n

#1- BlackRock has landed a USD 5 bn commitment from the Public Investment Fund and <\/strong>will open a \u201cmulti-class investment firm\u201d in Riyadh. <\/strong>A unit of the world\u2019s largest asset manager will target investments in the Kingdom as well as across the Middle East and North Africa. We have more in Planet Finance, below, as do the Financial Times<\/a> | Retuers<\/a> | Bloomberg<\/a> | Wall Street Journal<\/a>. <\/p>\n

#1- Benjamin Netanyahu is signaling he will push ahead with a ground assault on Rafah <\/strong>\u201cwith or without a deal.\u201d <\/strong>Speaking as Cairo-brokered ceasefire talks continued, Netanyahu said, \u201cThe idea that we will stop the war before achieving all of its goals is out of the question. We will enter Rafah and we will eliminate Hamas\u2019 battalions there \u2014 with or without a deal,\u201d <\/p>\n

We\u2019ll know more tonight:<\/strong> Hamas is expected to reply later today<\/a> to Israel\u2019s latest proposal and Israel says it\u2019s not talking until it does<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Netanyahu\u2019s statement got a lot of attention on foreign press: <\/strong>Associated Press<\/a> | Washington Post<\/a> | Reuters<\/a> | Politico<\/a> | The Guardian<\/a> | CNN<\/a> <\/p>\n

#2- Demand for artificial intelligence drove sales growth at Amazon\u2019s cloud division in 1Q <\/strong>\u2014 a fact you now know because every single news outlet from the FT<\/a> and Wall Street Journal<\/a> to Bloomberg<\/a> is leading with that story at the top of their homepages as we head to dispatch this morning. Germany\u2019s Handelsblatt<\/a> notes that both Google and Microsoft Azure (both admittedly smaller players) grew their AI cloud businesses twice as fast in the fourth quarter. Amazon\u2019s profit more than tripled<\/strong>, comfortably ahead<\/a> of analyst expectations.<\/p>\n

#3- Pro-Palestinian protests on US college campuses \u2014 and heavy-handed responses to <\/strong>them \u2014 are also getting plenty of ink. <\/strong>Columbia President Minouche Shafik is still under fire<\/a> from both sides, New York City is massing police next to the campus<\/a> after protesters \u201cdramatically\u201d took over a building, and those occupying the building have been threatened with expulsion<\/a>.<\/p>\n
