Tharwah board proposes 200,000 share buyback
In a statement to Tadawul, the company said that the buyback will not impact the level of public ownership of the traded shares, in accordance with regulations set by the Capital Market Authority (CMA), financial market rules, and the applicable laws in Saudi Arabia.
The buyback is intended to facilitate share-swap transactions as part of the acquisition deal for Amjad Watan for Exhibitions and Conferences Management. A portion of these shares will be allocated to the company's employees in the future under a long-term incentive program.
The buyback will be funded from its own resources, Tharwah stated, adding that the repurchased shares will carry no voting rights in shareholders' meetings.
The buyback requires approval from the extraordinary general meeting (EGM) and must meet the financial solvency requirements outlined in the executive regulations of the Companies Law for listed joint stock companies.
The company confirmed it does not currently hold any treasury shares.

Saudi Arabia Achieves Over Double the Global Growth in EV Charging Ports
Wood Mackenzie has just released its latest report on electric vehicle charging infrastructure, and the findings are nothing short of exciting. Around the world, charging networks are expanding at an incredible pace — but one country in particular is stealing the spotlight: Saudi Arabia. According to the study, the Kingdom is set to become one of the fastest-growing markets for EV charging anywhere on the planet. Between 2026 and 2040, the number of charging points across Saudi Arabia is expected to grow at an astonishing 29% annually, more than double the global average of 12.3%. That kind of growth tells us one thing — Saudi Arabia isn't just following the shift to electric mobility, it's racing ahead to lead it. A global surge powered by home charging On a worldwide scale, the numbers are equally impressive. By 2040, we could see over 206 million charging points in operation, with home chargers continuing to dominate — about 133 million of them installed in residences. At the same time, annual spending on charging infrastructure is set to climb steadily, reaching a massive $300 billion by 2040. What the experts are saying Oliver McHugh, Senior Analyst at Wood Mackenzie, explained it this way: 'As people rely more on public charging and infrastructure gets more efficient, each charging port will need to serve more EVs — rising from 7.5 cars per charger in 2025 to about 14 cars by 2040.' His colleague Emil Koenig added another key point: 'Level 2 home charging is here to stay. By 2050, two out of every three charging points worldwide will be Level 2, because it strikes the perfect balance between convenience, performance, and cost.' Regional highlights
