Saudi-listed IT and business solutions firm Dar Albalad for Business Solutions Company has taken a key step toward its stock market debut, announcing its IPO price range and opening the institutional book-building period on April 26, 2026.
The Price Range
The offering price has been set between SAR 9.25 and SAR 9.75 per share. The final price within this range will be confirmed once the book-building process concludes.
What's Happening Right Now: Book-Building
The current phase — book-building — is open exclusively to institutional investors (banks, funds, and qualified financial entities). It runs from April 26 through April 30, 2026 (4:00 PM KSA time).
Retail investors cannot participate at this stage. This phase is how the market gauges demand and helps determine the final share price.
