This recent rally has seen FBN Holdings regain some ground, although it remains below its 52-week high of N43.95. Analysts emphasize that the company’s share price at the time of the capital raise approval will directly influence the volume of shares issued in the upcoming N350 billion raise. With FBN Holdings’ 35.895 billion outstanding shares, the current market value now stands at N1.033 trillion, marking a significant milestone as the financial group continues its strategic restructuring efforts.
Investor sentiment has been strengthened by the internal shifts within the group, including the appointment of a new group managing director and the announcement of a revised date for the annual general meeting. At this meeting, FBN Holdings aims to obtain shareholder approval for its capital increase and dividend declaration, further underscoring its commitment to shareholder value and long-term growth.FBN Holdings
