Mobily CEO Khalif Al-Kaf said he had no clue to the decline of the company’s stock before the announcement of third quarter results.
Mobily said today the Capital Market Authority started a probe into its decision to revise revenues for financial periods in 2013 and 2014, which impacted shareholders’ equity and sparked complaints from investors.
Al-Kaf said the company and its external auditor had different views, but Mobily preferred the revision option for fairer financial results.
He said CMA’s probe was a genuine regulatory practice, aimed to validate the amendments.
The company made SAR 2.4 billion profit by end of September (post-revision), 41 percent lower than the same period of last year.
