EEC's capital optimization plan to shore up financial position and sustain growth: CEO

14/09/2024 13:31 AST

RIYADH: Saudi master developer Emaar The Economic City's SR8.7 billion ($2.32 billion) capital optimization plan is a "strategic response" to its current financial challenges, according to its CEO.

Speaking to Arab News, Abdulaziz Al-Nowaiser emphasized that the initiative is designed to address severe financial issues, including a significant revenue drop and a substantial increase in net loss.

The plan will provide the company, 25 percent owned by PIF, with greater flexibility to invest in key projects and support its ongoing premium city operations.

Additionally, EEC will convert SR4 billion of debt into share capital. This move is designed to reduce leverage and interest expenses, enhancing financial stability.

EEC is the master developer of the King Abdullah Economic City, a 185-sq. km. development on the Red Sea coast, where over 100 multinational and Saudi companies have already established a home.
