The listing of the company is among the ten largest initial public offerings in the history of the Saudi market, led by the oil giant Saudi Aramco, which amounted to 96.6 billion riyals.

The Saudi National Bank with an offering value of 22.5 billion riyals, and based on the price range (151 riyals) per share, which means that the market value of the company reached 18.1 billion riyals.
