Allcargo Logistics, through its wholly owned Dutch subsidiary Ecuhold N.V., has bought the remaining 30% stake in its Saudi Arabian arm, Ecu-Line Saudi Arabia LLC, for a cash consideration of SAR 10 million. With this deal signed on August 5, 2025, Ecuhold N.V. now owns 100% of the Saudi entity, which was previously jointly held with a local partner. The target operates in the logistics sector (transportation and storage) and reported a turnover of 13,065 Lakhs as of June 30, 2025, with past revenues of 46,403 Lakhs (2022), 28,766 Lakhs (2023), and 30,800 Lakhs (2024). The transaction is not a related party deal and is aimed at expanding Allcargo's business in the Middle East by buying out the local partner. Completion is expected in a couple of weeks subject to local registration formalities.
This is a relatively small, strategic consolidation that gives Allcargo full ownership and complete profit share of its Saudi operations. Neutral to mildly positive for shareholders as it simplifies the group structure, though the deal size is modest and unlikely to move the stock price significantly on its own.
