Raysut Cement reports loss in 2022

18 January 2023

Oman: Raysut Cement’s loss after tax rose to US$243m in 2022 from US$33.6m in 2021. Its expenses more than doubled to US$361m from US$168m. Its sales revenue dropped by 12% year-on-year to US$118m from US$134m.

The release of financial data for 2022 follows the intervention by the Capital Market Authority (CMA) in late 2022. In November 2022 the regulator publicly called on the cement producer to urgently address 'material misrepresentations' in its financial results for the second quarter of 2022. It then replaced the company’s board of directors and appointed a temporary one in December 2022 following an audit. This is the second time the CMA’s history that it has taken such action, according to local press.

Capital Market Authority replaces board of Raysut Cement

14 December 2022

Oman: The Capital Market Authority (CMA) has replaced the board of directors of Raysut Cement and appointed a temporary one following a financial audit. The CMA said the new board would, “deal with the reasons that led the company to conditions that prompted such action.” It will restructure the company to ensure the stability of its financial position. In late November 2022 the CMA questioned the validity of the company’s third quarter results in 2022 when it detected ‘material misrepresentation.’ Additionally, the cement producer’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer resigned in August 2022 and November 2022 respectively.

The new board is headed by Hamdan Ahmed Al Shaqsi. It also includes Majid Sultan Al Tauqi, Dr. Ali Amer Al Ghaithi, Ahmed Saud Al Zakwani and Mubeen Jalil Yasin Khan. The new board members will each hold their posts for three years.
