Two sources told Archyde.com that Americana Group, the franchisee of KFC and Pizza Hut, has hired investment bank Rothschild to advise on a potential initial public offering.
The two sources added that Americana, which is considering a public offering in the UAE or Saudi Arabia, is expected to invite banks to play other important roles in the process in the coming weeks.
The two sources asked not to be named because the matter has not yet been announced.
Americana is owned by the Saudi Public Investment Fund and an investment consortium led by Adeptio. Neither Americana nor Alabbar responded to a request for comment when contacted by Archyde.com. Rothschild Bank declined to comment.
The two sources said that shareholders may also consider a dual listing on the two exchanges.
The Adeptio unit of businessman Mohamed Alabbar acquired Americana in 2016. The Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia bought a 50 percent stake in Adeptio later that year.
The value of the Americana Group was $3.5 billion in 2017, when it was delisted from the Kuwait Stock Exchange.
In 2019, the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange and the Saudi Stock Exchange (Tadawul) concluded an agreement to enhance joint cooperation and dual listing in the financial markets in the UAE and Saudi Arabia.
Founded in Kuwait in 1964, Americana operates 1,800 restaurants across the region, according to its website. The company operates brand franchises for KFC, Pizza Hut, Hardee’s, Krispy Kreme, among others.

Fluvoxamine, an antidepressant, should not be used once morest Covid in the current state of knowledge, estimated this Tuesday the French health authorities, judging insufficient the few works going in the direction of a profit. “The data available to date, due to their methodological limitations, do not support a clinical benefit of fluvoxamine as a curative treatment for Covid-19 disease”, summarized in a press release the National Security Agency of medicine (ANSM).
Fluvoxamine, widely used as an antidepressant, is one of the few medications already existing which have given interesting results once morest severe forms of Covid. Unlike now discredited tracks like chloroquine or ivermectin, some credible studies suggest that it can reduce the risk of complications. Such a prospect is particularly interesting because the cost of such a treatment, which has long been in circulation, would be much lower than that of anti-Covid drugs developed specifically for this purpose, such as Pfizer’s Paxlovid pill.
“This position can completely evolve and be revised”
However, according to the ANSM, the current state of knowledge remains insufficient to support such use. “The data available today, and I mean today (…), are not sufficient to support a presumed favorable benefit-risk ratio in this indication”, summarizes Philippe Vella, specialist in antidepressants at the ANSM. Some of the available studies have observed following the fact that there were fewer complications in patients treated with fluvoxamine, but do not make it possible to ascertain a direct cause and effect link.
Others, rarer, have really sought to estimate the benefits of fluvoxamine, compared to a placebo, but, for the ANSM, they present too significant biases.
The largest study, conducted in Brazil and published at the end of 2021, has the particular defect of having mixed two evaluation criteria: the risk of staying more than a few hours in an emergency department, and that of being hospitalized. following several weeks. “We are not at the same level of severity in the criteria”, remarked Philippe Vella.
The ANSM also considers that these studies do not sufficiently detail the risk of adverse effects of fluvoxamine. Admittedly, its use as an antidepressant is well documented, but it would be given at very different doses and rhythm once morest the Covid. “This position, it can completely evolve and be revised if new data were to emerge”, however concluded Philippe Vella, wishing that larger studies be implemented.
The first week of the fourth month of the year began and along with it the stars have witnessed each of the movements that the Universe carried out so that each zodiac sign can obtain a prediction from the astrological reading.
