The assembly opened with the review and discussion of the Board of Directors’ report, the auditor’s report, and the financial statements for the 2025 fiscal year.

Following these deliberations, shareholders officially approved the discharge of the Board of Directors for their performance during the previous financial period.

A primary focus of the meeting was the approval of numerous business contracts and agreements with related parties, primarily involving Al Othman Holding and its subsidiaries. These transactions are subject to indirect interests held by Board Chairman Abdulmohsen bin Mohammed Al Othman, Board Member Abdulaziz bin Mohammed Al Othman, and Board Member George Antonios Ibrahim.
