EFG Hermes, an investment bank franchise in Frontier Emerging Markets (FEM), has announced that its Investment banking division has concluded its role as joint bookrunner on Borouge Plc’s $2 billion (AED 7.35 billion) initial public offering (IPO) on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX).

The transaction marks the largest-ever listing in Abu Dhabi’s history since ADNOC Drilling’s $1.1 billion (AED 4 billion) IPO.

Borouge, one of the world’s leading providers of advanced polyolefin solutions, listed 3.0 billion shares today — 10% of its share capital — at a share price of AED 2.45, indicating a market capitalization of AED AED 73.6 billion ($20 billion).

What the company is saying

“We’re extremely proud of this transaction — as we continue to play a proactive role in enriching the Emirati market and the Middle East at large with a multitude of accretive investment prospects,” said Mohamed Fahmi, EFG Hermes’ Co-Head of Investment Banking.

“Despite the macroeconomic turbulence that continues to pose a threat to global markets, the UAE still manages to hold its stance as a promising and resilient equity market. The nation’s recent IPOs, which boomed particularly in 2021, have garnered significant investor interest, solidifying the UAE’s position as a highly favourable destination for equity investors.

Borouge Plc’s deal comes as the latest addition to a series of megahit offerings in the region that are fueling economic growth, creating jobs, enhancing competitiveness, and broadening investment opportunities in the GCC.”

It boasts a team of over 3,100 employees and serves a customer-base spanning over 50 countries across Asia, the Middle East and Africa.
