Bahrain’s Silah Gulf to sell 30% stake in IPO

2025/12/26 15:35

Silah Gulf, an outsourcing company owned by a unit of Bahrain’s sovereign wealth fund Mumtalakat, plans to sell a 30 percent stake in the company through an initial public offering.

The Manama-based company plans to sell 16.35 million new shares, bringing the total capital to BHD5.2 million ($2.65 million), the company announced.

The shares will be offered at 176 fils per share, a premium of 76 percent over the nominal price of 100 fils, it added.

The IPO will be on offer between December 29 and January 19. Trading is scheduled to take place on February 3 on the Bahrain Bourse.

Established in 2009, Silah Gulf offers a portfolio of services including contact centre and customer service outsourcing, marketing, telesales and back office management in Bahrain, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia.

Future growth is expected to come from organic opportunities such as cross-selling new products, finance and knowledge process outsourcing, sectoral diversification and new partnerships.

The company is in discussion with Invita, a wholly owned unit of Bank of Bahrain and Kuwait, to further consolidate its presence in the Gulf region.

Sico is the lead manager for the public offering.

  • Analysts predict ‘fewer but better’ Gulf IPOs in 2026
  • Secondary share sales outperform IPOs across Gulf
  • Bahrain’s Mumtalakat reports biggest profit in its history

Marsat, which is owned by Mumtalakat through Bahrain Investment Holding, owns a 99 percent stake in Silah Gulf.

Listings in the Gulf region fell by a third to their lowest level since 2020 as lower oil prices dented investor appetite. 

Gulf IPOs expected in 2026 include Dubai Investment Park, the real estate arm of Dubai Investments, and Oman India Fertiliser Company of Muscat. 

Etihad Airways and Binghatti Holding are also tipped to list, although the Abu Dhabi airline and the Dubai-based developer have not confirmed IPO plans.

Satoshi-Era Mt. Gox’s 1,000 Bitcoin Wallet Suddenly Reactivated

The post Satoshi-Era Mt. Gox’s 1,000 Bitcoin Wallet Suddenly Reactivated appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. X account @SaniExp, which belongs to the founder of the Timechain Index explorer, has published data showing that a dormant BTC wallet was activated after hibernating for six years. However, it was set up 13 years ago, according to the tweet — the time when Satoshi Nakamoto’s shadow was still casting itself around, so to speak. The X post states that the tweet belongs to infamous early Bitcoin exchange Mt. Gox, which suffered from a major hack in the early 2010s, and last year it began paying out compensation to clients who lost their crypto in that hack. The deadline was eventually extended to October 2025. Mt. Gox’s wallet with 1,000 BTC reactivated The above-mentioned data source shared a screenshot from the Timechain Index explorer, showing multiple transactions marked as confirmed and moving a total of 1,000 Bitcoins. This amount of crypto is valued at $116,195,100 at the time of the initiated transaction. Last year, Mt. Gox began to move the remains of its gargantuan funds to pay out compensations to its creditors. Earlier this year, it also made several massive transactions to partner exchanges to distribute funds to Mt. Gox investors. All of the compensations were promised to be paid out by Oct. 31, 2025. The aforementioned transaction is likely preparation for another payout. The exchange was hacked for several years due to multiple unnoticed security breaches, and in 2014, when the site went offline, 744,408 Bitcoins were reported stolen.

Bitcoin 8% Gains Already Make September 2025 Its Second Best

Bitcoin 8% Gains Already Make September 2025 Its Second Best

The post Bitcoin 8% Gains Already Make September 2025 Its Second Best appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key points: Bitcoin is bucking seasonality trends by adding 8%, making this September its best since 2012. September 2025 would need to see 20% upside to become Bitcoin’s strongest ever. BTC price volatility is at levels rarely seen before in an unusual bull cycle. Bitcoin (BTC) has gained more this September than any year since 2012, a new bull market record. Historical price data from CoinGlass and BiTBO confirms that at 8%, Bitcoin’s September 2025 upside is its second-best ever. Bitcoin avoiding “Rektember” with 8% gains September is traditionally Bitcoin’s weakest month, with average losses of around 8%. BTC/USD monthly returns (screenshot). Source: CoinGlass This year, the stakes are high for BTC price seasonality, as historical patterns demand the next bull market peak and other risk assets set repeated new all-time highs. While both gold and the S&P 500 are in price discovery, BTC/USD has coiled throughout September after setting new highs of its own the month prior. Even at “just” 8%, however, this September’s performance is currently enough to make it Bitcoin’s strongest in 13 years. The only time that the ninth month of the year was more profitable for Bitcoin bulls was in 2012, when BTC/USD gained about 19.8%. Last year, upside topped out at 7.3%. BTC/USD monthly returns.
