The assembly approved a 50% capital increase from SAR 50,400,000 to SAR 75,600,000 through bonus share issuance, capitalizing SAR 25,200,000 from retained earnings by granting one free share for every two existing shares.

Key Resolutions

The assembly approved:

  • 50% capital increase via bonus shares.
  • Board remuneration of SAR 750,000 for 2025.
  • Appointment of Ibrahim Ahmed Al-Bassam & Partners as external auditor for 2026-2027 with fees of SAR 400,000.
  • Various governance policies.

Rejected Transactions

Several related-party transactions totaling over SAR 85 million were not approved. The assembly granted a six-month period to rectify compliance issues.
