Prince Alwaleed's Al Hilal Purchase Assessed
Reports and analyses have shown that the Saudi Arabian Kingdom Holding's acquisition of a 70% stake in Al Hilal Club is an attractive investment opportunity. This is due to the relatively low valuation upon which the deal was based, especially when compared to similar transactions involving global clubs. The announced valuation of the entity was 1.4 billion Riyals, with an equity valuation of 1.2 billion Riyals, reflecting a multiple of enterprise value to revenues of 1.1 times. This is lower than the international benchmark for major clubs, which typically ranges between 2 and 5.7 times. Although the price-to-earnings ratio for the club is high at 31.7, the strong revenue growth and positive future outlook make it an appealing investment, particularly given the 16% increase in revenues to 1.27 billion Riyals over the past year and the rising profits, with a heavy reliance on sponsorships that account for 40% of the income.
