Al-Baha Investment and Development Co.’s board of directors amended its capital reduction recommendation to a 30% cut from SAR 297 million to SAR 207.9 million, instead of the previously-proposed 25% decrease, according to a statement to Tadawul.
The capital cut will be through cutting the nominal value of the stock from SAR 0.10 to SAR 0.07 by writing off SAR 89.1 million of the company's current capital to offset all accumulated losses, without reducing the number of current shares — a move earlier recommended by the board.
The capital reduction is still subject to the approval of the extraordinary general assembly, Al-Baha added.

Al-Baha will later announce the appointment of the financial advisor and will reveal updates on filing for the approval of the Capital Market Authority (CMA).
