H1 2015 highlightsIncreasing IPO activity in Q2 2015, with IPOs in Egypt and Saudi Arabia leading the way
H1 2015 saw 11 IPOs in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, raising capital of over US$2.4b. Deal volume decreased by 31% and proceeds raised decreased by 1% in H1 2015, compared with H1 2014. Egypt and Saudi Arabia witnessed the highest number of IPOs with five and three IPOs respectively.
Q2 2015 saw an uptick in IPO activity, with nine IPOs in the MENA region raising over US$2.1b. Capital raised through MENA firms increased by 92%, while the number of IPOs decreased by two in Q2 2015, compared with Q2 2014.
The IPO of Saudi Ground Services Company on the Saudi Stock Exchange (SE) (Tadawul) was the largest IPO in H1 2015, raising US$751.9m, and was over twice the size of the next largest IPO during the period.

Reduced volatility and stabilizing oil prices leading to increased IPO activity
Following a decline in Brent crude oil prices during H2 2014 and Q1 2015, oil prices appear to have stabilized, with Brent crude (OPEC basket price) hovering around US$60 per barrel. As a result, several companies that had deferred IPO plans due to volatility in the markets driven by oil price movements have executed their IPO plans, particularly in Saudi Arabia and Egypt.
3MENA IPO Eye — H1 2015 |
Egypt and Saudi Arabia continue to be strong IPO performers
IPOs on the Egyptian and Saudi Arabian exchanges were the primary drivers of IPO activity in MENA in H1 2015. Egypt continues to benefit from increasing political stability, improved economic conditions and various reforms, which are driving confidence in the Egyptian capital markets, attracting both companies and investors.
Egyptian IPOs were among the largest in the MENA region. This included Integrated Diagnostics Holdings PLC, Edita Food Industries, Orascom Construction Limited and Emar Misr.
Saudi Arabia saw the listing of three companies, including the long-awaited IPO of Saudi Ground Services Company, which is part of the continued privatization of Saudi Arabian Airlines business units.
IPOs on the Tadawul and the Egyptian Exchange continue to attract strong demand, with offerings up to 11 times oversubscribed, highlighting positive investor sentiment in these markets in particular.
Return of outbound London IPOs
Q2 2015 also saw the first MENA outbound IPOs since the listing of Gulf Marine Services on the London Stock Exchange (LSE) in Q1 2014. Integrated Diagnostics Holdings (health care diagnostic services) and Edita Foods Industries (packaged food distributor) opted for listings on the LSE, through a main market listing and listing of GDRs, respectively.
Integrated Diagnostics Holdings listed 43.5% of its shares on 11 May 2015 (UK election day). Shares were offered at US$4.45 per share on 6 May 2015 (conditional trading date) and are currently traded at US$5.75 per share.
Integrated Diagnostics Holdings is the third MENA health care company to list on the LSE, following the successful IPOs of NMC Health (2012) and Al Noor Hospital (2013). This sector continues to be one of the most attractive sectors in the MENA region for IPOs.
Opening of the largest market in MENA to foreign investors
On 15 June 2015, Tadawul, the largest capital market in MENA with a market capitalization of US$580m, opened its stock market to foreign direct investment (FDI). Qualified foreign investors (QFIs) including banks, insurance companies and asset managers were allowed to invest in companies listed on Tadawul. Previously, only companies from the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries had access to this exchange.
New regulations relating to foreign investors on Tadawul
• QFIs must have minimum assets worth SAR18.75b (US$5b).
• QFIs must have a five-year track record.
• A single investor may not own more than 5% of a company by stock market value and a group of foreign investors cannot own more than 10%.
• The maximum proportion of shares of any issuer that may be owned by QFIs is 20%.
• Overall foreign ownership of a company cannot be more than 49%.
• There is a tax of 5% on dividends for foreign investors.
Source: Rules for Qualified Foreign Financial Institutions Investments in Listed Shares, Capital Market Authority, Saudi Arabia.
Many commentators have stated this as an important reform that will help transform Tadawul’s global reputation and reduce volatility by attracting more institutional investors. However, the current ownership rules may limit the potential impact of this reform.
“ Markets with a big tranche of institutional investors are characterized by low volatility and high efficiency. Increasing institutional investors’ strategic ownership in listed companies supports governance practices and increases transparency, a target that is hard to achieve amid the dominance of retail investors in the market.” CMA (Source: Arabnews.com)

Q2 2015 — highlights
• Q2 2015 saw an increase in IPO activity, compared with Q1 2015, with nine IPOs across the region, which collectively raised a total capital of US$2.1b. Capital raised through MENA firms increased by 92% in Q2 2015, compared with Q2 2014.
• Saudi Arabia and Egypt had six IPOs in H1 2015, representing 78% of the total capital raised, reflecting strong investor sentiment, given continued stability, improving economic conditions and implementation of market reforms.
• As of 15 June 2015, Tadawul opened up to FDI subject to several criteria and ownership limits.
Highlights from the Q1 2015 MENA IPO Eye edition
• Q1 2015 saw a decrease in IPO activity, compared with Q1 2014 and Q4 2014, with only two IPOs across the region, which collectively raised a total capital of US$255.7m. This was primarily driven by companies deferring IPO plans, given oil price and market volatility.
• Both the IPOs closed in Q1 2015 were companies based in Egypt, with Orascom Construction opting for a dual listing on the Egyptian SE and NASDAQ Dubai.

• According to the IMF, the MENA region is still expected to register a gross domestic product (GDP) growth of 2.7% in 2015, compared with 2.4% in 2014. This is a downward revision from 3.8%, forecasted in Q1 2015.
• Owing to oil revenue losses driven by lower-than-expected oil prices, most of the MENA countries have revised their GDP projections. However, continued economic reforms and diversification is expected to help mitigate the loss of oil revenue in the region.
• The oil market has started to stabilize due to an increase in demand from Latin American and Asian countries, combined with a decrease in supply contributed by the war in Yemen, which also resulted in a decline in Libya’s oil exports.
• Ongoing negotiations between Iran and the world’s superpowers may result in lifting of sanctions (including oil embargoes) and add further pressure on oil prices.
• In Q2 2015, government expenditure in MENA is forecast to total US$982b and is a downward revision for the year, compared with US$1,078b, initially forecasted in Q1 2015.
• MENA countries are expected to use accumulated financial reserves and available financing to cushion some of the impacts on growth while gradually reprioritizing their fiscal spending.

Key capital markets, such as Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Muscat, Tunisia and Casablanca have registered positive YTD returns. Tadawul has achieved the highest YTD return (11.8%) as of June 2015, partially driven by its opening to foreign institutional investors.
• The regional market remains attractive, with an average price-to-earnings ratio (PE) of 13.1x as of June 2015 (13.0x as of March 2015). The average dividend yield (DY) of regional stock markets as of June 2015 was 3.7% (3.6% as of March 2015).

8 | MENA IPO Eye — H1 2015
H2 2015 outlookStabilizing oil prices, but uncertainty from the potential lifting of sanctions on Iran
Brent crude oil prices appear to have stabilized over Q2 2015, resulting in less volatility and improved returns on the key MENA stock exchanges. This is expected to continue going forward, resulting in improved confidence for companies looking to IPO.
The stability in oil prices is expected to boost the regional stock markets. However, the potential lifting of sanctions on Iran, based on ongoing negotiations with the world’s superpowers toward the end of the Q2 2015, is likely to add downward pressure on oil prices, going forward.
Regional reforms, paving the way for increased IPO activity
With Saudi Arabia opening Tadawul to direct foreign participation for the first time, both local and international investors are positioning themselves to trade in the largest MENA bourse (capitalization of US$580b). This is likely to drive increased activity and investment, going forward.
Foreign investors are also expected to be attracted by the recent introduction of pre-IPO funds, which provide growth capital to companies and do not require foreign investors to go through the licensing process.
In Kuwait, the authorities are planning to align the stock market with the global norms in order to encourage foreign investors.
In Egypt, the government is planning to introduce value-added tax (VAT) by the second half of 2015 to increase government revenues and spending.
These regional reforms are expected to drive capital market activity in the region in H2 2015.
New companies law in the UAE
The UAE IPO market has been subdued over the first half of 2015; however, Q2 2015 saw the new Commercial Companies Law come into effect.
The legislation allows companies to float a minimum of 30% of their shares (previously 55%) and underwriting has been given statutory recognition, allowing companies to use a book building process to price shares, rather than the price being allocated by the regulator.
The new law is likely to have a significant impact on the UAE IPO market, given companies often see outbound IPOs as more attractive due to the previous minimum float requirement.
With several companies waiting for the right time to launch or restart their IPO process, we expect several UAE companies to IPO in H2 2015.
The Greek effect
The ongoing Greek crisis in Europe, may have a delayed impact on the MENA exchanges.
Firms preparing for an IPO in 2015
According to the Zawya IPO Monitor, over 50 companies from the MENA region have plans to go public in 2015.
Some of the prominent names expected to be listed in the second half of 2015 are Zain Iraq (Iraq), Qalaa Holdings (Egypt), Kuwait Airways Corporation (Kuwait), Emaar Financial Services (UAE), Arab Paper Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (Saudi Arabia), Riyadh Cables Group of Companies (Saudi Arabia), Al-Watania Poultry, and Jindal Shadeed Iron & Steel Co. (Oman).
Broader outlook — highlights
• Oil prices appear to have stabilized in Q2 2015. However, ongoing negotiations between Iran and the world’s superpowers are likely to result in the end of sanctions, and may impact oil prices and the MENA capital markets going forward.
• The full effect of the change in regulation to allow FDI on the Tadawul is expected to pick up momentum in H2 2015, as stakeholders become familiar with the new rules.
• The UAE has issued a new commercial companies law with a revised minimum float requirement of only 30% (previously 55%). This change in minimum float requirement is likely to increase IPO activity in H2 2015. Additional reforms in Egypt and Kuwait are also expected to drive the capital market activity in the region.
