Saudi Cable Co. said the board of directors has recommended a capital reduction, aimed at adjusting the company's status, after accumulated losses exceeded 50 percent of capital, the company said in a statement to Saudi bourse, Tadawul.

 

Saudi Cable’s accumulated losses reached SAR 515.5 million, representing 67.8 percent of its capital, data compiled by Argaam showed.
