The proposal would reduce nominal capital from SAR 150 million to SAR 45.42875 million and shares from 15 million to 4.542875 million. It is a proposed restructuring of the company’s capital account.

Those outcomes would require separate company disclosures.","In economic terms, a capital reduction can be used to reorganise balance-sheet structure or update capital accounts in relation to accumulated losses, but the CMA announcement did not state the rationale for this particular application. This report therefore does not attribute a specific loss amount or purpose to it. The shareholder disclosure, extraordinary general assembly decision and subsequent regulatory filings will determine how investors can assess the effects. The verified development at this stage is the CMA’s conditional approval; no claim is made that the proposal has been executed or that company results have changed.","For shareholders to decide, the document must explain not only the amounts but also the method and expected effects.
