The Capital Market Authority (CMA) approved today, April 28, Arabian Pipes Co.’s request to increase capital from SAR 150 million to SAR 200 million by issuing one bonus share for every three shares held. 
Eligible shareholders will be those registered with the Securities Depository Center (Edaa) by the end of the second trading day following the record date, which will be determined later by the company’s board of directors, the market regulator said in a statement.
