​10
 percent.
 
The ratings agency also set its  target price for the stock at SAR 195.

The recommendation was based on the catering services provider’s clean balance sheet, higher margins, robust cash
​,​
 and lower capital expenditures.

Based on the fundamentals, the investment bank said the company is well-positioned, factoring in an expansion of airline fleets in the kingdom, as well as a higher number of pilgrims expected this year.
