Middle East Cables says 2 board members offload 2.5 mln shares

01/03/2015 Argaam

Middle East Specialized Cables (MESC), one of the region’s leading cable manufacturers, said that board members Abdul Aziz Al Namlah and Abdel Raouf Al Bitar sold around 2.5 million of their shares combined last year.

By the end of last fiscal year, the company had suffered SAR 23.1 million in losses at SAR 0.39 per share, mainly attributed to the poor performance of its Jordan-based affiliate, which said it lost SAR 26.2 million due to fierce competition.

MESC Saudi Arabia and MESC United Arab Emirates also reported lower-than-expected profits on declining demand and growing competition.
