Ahli Bank halts merger talks, revives OMR 50m capital plan
MUSCAT: Ahli Bank SAOG has announced the postponement of its proposed merger with Sohar International Bank SAOG due to a lack of necessary regulatory approvals, the lender disclosed in a market statement on Sunday. The Board of Directors of Ahli Bank resolved to suspend further discussions with Sohar International until further notice. The merger proposal, initially announced in April 2025, was part of a broader consolidation trend in Oman's banking sector aimed at improving operational scale and competitiveness. 'In light of this development,' the bank stated, 'and in alignment with the Bank's capital planning objectives, the Board has also resolved to proceed with a capital increase through a rights issue of OMR 50 million.' This capital raise, previously announced and later suspended due to the merger talks, is now being revived. Ahli Bank confirmed it will undertake all necessary steps to implement the rights issue, including seeking required regulatory approvals. The bank reiterated its commitment to transparency, stating: 'Ahli Bank will continue to disclose any material developments to the market in accordance with applicable laws and disclosure regulations.'

Boosting egg production amid growing demand
BUSINESS REPORTER MUSCAT, JUNE 18 Oman Flour Mills, through its subsidiary Arabian Food Production, is producing an impressive 500 million eggs annually and has announced plans to expand output by 15 per cent over the next two years. According to Dr Suheel Ahmed, CEO of Arabian Food Production, this strategic expansion aligns with the Sultanate of Oman's drive towards food security and self-sufficiency. 'We are committed to strengthening our contribution to the local market while maintaining a robust export base,' he said, adding that Oman reached 102 per cent self-sufficiency in egg production in 2024. Currently, 25 per cent of the company's egg production is exported to neighbouring countries including the UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait. However, seasonal shifts in consumption continue to pose a challenge. 'Demand typically dips in summer, during school holidays, and throughout Ramadan. While our production cycle can't adapt to these fluctuations, we manage the surplus by expanding our regional distribution network,' Dr Ahmed explained. To ensure top-quality production, the company has invested heavily in advanced technologies at its new farm. Modern equipment minimises human contact, reduces labour costs, and ensures precise control over environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity. 'Our automated systems collect, grade and package over 1.3 million eggs daily, enhancing hygiene and reducing breakage,' he said. Beyond productivity gains, sustainability is also a core focus. The company has introduced energy- and water-efficient systems and ensures all poultry waste is treated on-site to reduce environmental impact. Additionally, culled birds are processed into poultry meal and fat, which are supplied to other industries such as pet food manufacturing. Dr Ahmed emphasised that maintaining high standards would not be possible without strong international partnerships. Arabian Food Production sources its birds from the German Lohmann breed and collaborates with leading global machinery manufacturers. Japanese firm ISE Foods, a key shareholder, also provides technical expertise to support ongoing improvements.
