Oman's IPO Surge Faces Early Test with Asyad Shipping on the Horizon

Muscat, Oman - Oman is bracing for a pivotal moment in its divestment journey as the Oman Investment Authority prepares to test the waters with a public offering of Asyad Shipping Co. According to a report by Bloomberg, the country's recent $2.5 billion in new share sales in 2024 propelled it ahead of larger markets such as the UK. However, Oman now faces the challenge of maintaining investor interest amid fluctuating market dynamics.

The upcoming initial public offering (IPO) of a 20% stake in Asyad Shipping brings new attention to Oman's governmental efforts to offload some 30 assets to investors. This move is seen as a bellwether for future public listings in a market where recent debuts have struggled. Notably, OQ Exploration & Production SAOG's and OQ Base Industries SAOG's shares have seen disappointing performances post-IPO, with marked declines in their valuation.

Oman has lagged behind its Gulf peers, such as Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, in developing its capital markets. However, new regulatory reforms aimed at improving private sector listings and secondary liquidity signal the country's intent to align with regional standards. The Muscat Stock Exchange remains among the smallest in the region with a modest market capitalization of over $31 billion, as indicated by Bloomberg data.

As Asyad Shipping looks to secure a valuation of at least $1 billion in its IPO, the sultanate's leadership hopes this offering will spur increased investor confidence, potentially leading to an upgrade to emerging-market status. This goal is supported by an improving economic outlook in Oman, a factor vital for meeting the global market capitalization benchmarks set by entities like MSCI Inc.

Lakhotia of SICO Bank commented, "Asyad's success is pivotal. It can act as a catalyst for many more IPOs in the sultanate." The IPO might also benefit from Asyad Shipping's strategic role in providing marine transportation services for key Omani exports, making it a "relatively safe and sticky" investment, coupled with a favorable dividend policy.

Despite regional enthusiasm for private sector IPOs like Nice One Beauty Digital Marketing Co. and Almoosa Health Co. in Saudi Arabia, Oman might need to temper its valuation expectations. "This should not prevent Oman from executing more privatizations, just maybe not as high valuations as it previously hoped for," suggested Hasnain Malik, an emerging markets strategist at Tellimer.
