Salama Cooperative Insurance Co. said the period of its rights issue trading and subscription to the new shares will begin on Dec. 17, according to a statement to Tadawul.

 

For More IPOs

 

Rights trading will end on Dec. 24, while subscription to new shares will close on Dec. 29.

 

Rights holders are allowed to exercise their right to subscribe to new shares (wholly or partly) up to the number of rights issues available in their portfolios. Trading in rights and subscriptions to new shares for registered shareholders and new investors will be in accordance with the prospectus.

 

The unsubscribed and fractional shares, if any, will be offered to institutional investors, according to the prospectus. Alawwal Capital will underwrite the rights issue if the entire subscription is not fully covered, the statement added.

 

Investors not willing to subscribe must sell their rights during the specified trading period to avoid the decline in the value of their investment portfolios as a result of not benefiting from their rights, whether by way of sale or subscription.

 

Salama shareholders recently approved the board’s recommendation to increase capital by SAR 100 million rights issue (one share for every two existing shares).
