On the other hand, strong deposits growth sustained favourable liquidity maintaining adequate funding capacity within the system.

    UAE Equity Research - Consumer Staples Sector 4Q24 - Preview Note

    We prefer Agthia over Americana Restaurants and LuLu Retail following the price correction. Agthia faced challenges, particularly related to currency devaluation in Egypt which may have contributed to investor concerns potentially affecting the share price. Agthia prioritizes product innovation, premiumization, and digitalization of operations across all segments to expand margins.

    Saudi Equity Research - Banking Sector 4Q24 - Preview Note

    We maintain our MARKET WEIGHT rating on the Saudi banking sector. Saudi Arabia’s economy is forecasted to grow 1.5% in 2024 primarily attributed to a strong growth in the non-oil sector partially offset by a decline in oil activity. The decline in oil activity is mainly attributable to voluntary oil output cuts agreed with OPEC+ to stabilize oil prices.

    Consumer Staples

    UAE Equity Research - UAE Consumer Staples Sector 3Q24 - Preview Note

    We prefer Americana over Agthia post-price correction. The current share price of Agthia appears to already reflect most of the potential upside from improvements in its financial performance. Americana’s sales are affected due to the boycott of Western brands in the Middle East due to geopolitical conflicts.
