GFH Financial Group B.S.C., a prominent financial institution in the GCC region, has announced a strategic move to increase its treasury shares.

This acquisition represents 6.648% of the total issued shares, a slight increase from the previous 6.620%.
This move comes after a series of approvals, including the board of directors' decision on March 2, 2025, and the authority's approval on October 20, 2025. The average purchase price was USD 0.587 per share, and there are still 128,470,504 shares remaining for potential future purchases.
Such strategic acquisition of treasury shares can be seen as a sign of confidence from GFH in its own long-term growth prospects. By increasing its treasury shares, GFH may be aiming to enhance shareholder value and stabilize its stock price amidst market fluctuations.
For investors, this move could signal a potential opportunity. The increase in treasury shares could lead to a reduction in the number of shares available in the market, potentially driving up the share price. However, investors should also be cautious and consider the broader market conditions and GFH's overall financial health.
Given these factors, the recommendation would be to hold GFH shares. While the increase in treasury shares is a positive indicator, it's essential to monitor future developments and financial results to make more informed decisions.
