Doha, Qatar: Aamal Company Q.P.S.C., one of the region’s leading diversified companies, yesterday announced that its fully owned subsidiary, Aamal Trading and Distribution, has announced its intention to start negotiations with Integrated Information Systems Company (IIS) to acquire it. IIS is 49 percent owned by Al Faisal Holding Company, with the remaining 51 percent owned by International Consultancy Company.
IIS is a leading provider of a wide range of IT solutions and services to companies in various sectors, including commerce, services, industrial production, financial services, health and insurance, transportation, and communications.
This acquisition would enhance Aamal’s revenue streams, as IIS is the main provider of information technology and systems services to Aamal, and in the event of the acquisition, IIS will become a subsidiary of Aamal through Aamal Trading and Distribution.
This will give it the opportunity to benefit from services and solutions more efficiently , as well as expanding its range of businesses by winning new contracts with other local companies. Aamal’s Chairman indirectly owns 55.7 percent of IIS.
The expected value of the acquisition may reach QR500,000 and is expected to be completed through the indirect acquisition method, given that Aamal Trading and Distribution is a fully owned subsidiary of Aamal Company.
Rashid bin Ali Al Mansouri, CEO of Aamal Company Q.P.S.C., commented: “At Aamal we are keen to continuously develop our activities and the information technology sector is a key area of focus for us.
