International Holding Company (IHC) will list three subsidiaries on Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange’s secondary market to boost their growth. Boat manufacturer Al Seer Marine and Emirates Stallion Group (ESG) will be listed in the second quarter of this year, the company said in a <a href="https://www.adx.ae/English/Pages/NewsDetails.aspx?viewid=20210507002751-IHC">statement</a> on Friday. It is also going to list another subsidiary and the company will disclose the name in the coming weeks. “The listing will create an attractive opportunity for current and new investors to take part in the growth of the companies, as well as benefitting IHC as a result of increased profile raising and higher visibility from these companies,” the company said. ESG has a diversified portfolio of businesses across engineering and construction, development and management of real estate and public realms and associated services. The company has assets of Dh394 million ($107m) as of the end of 2020 and employs more than 1000 people. ESG also owns five subsidiaries including Century Real Estate, Royal Development Company, Abu Dhabi Land General Contracting, Gulf Dunes Landscaping and Agricultural services and RAPM Architect Project Management. “IHC has continued to grow becoming the second-biggest company by value on the Abu Dhabi Securities exchange,” Syed Basar Shueb, chief executive and managing director of IHC, said. “We will continue to enrich our diversified portfolio with strong companies that are in line with our growth strategy and goals.” The listing of trio of companies will follow three other successful listings that IHC completed in 2020. These include Palm Sports, Easylease and Zee Stores on ADX’s secondary market. Listed on the ADX since 2005, Abu Dhabi-based IHC, which is majority owned by Abu Dhabi's PAL Group of Companies, has expanded its operations to include real estate, healthcare, food and agriculture. The company reported a 1,233 per cent increase in net profit for the first quarter of 2021 as revenue surged on the back of recent acquisitions.
