- SABIC Agri-Nutrients approved a new ammonia and urea complex in Saudi Arabia.
- The project is designed to expand production capacity and support the group's long-term export strategy.
Saudi Arabian Fertilizer stock is linked to SABIC Agri-Nutrients' final investment decision for a new ammonia and urea complex in Saudi Arabia. The parent company announced the project alongside its third-quarter results on October 25, 2026, according to SABIC.
Capacity expansion at the center
The planned complex is designed to produce 1.2 million metric tons of ammonia and 2.6 million metric tons of urea each year. SABIC said the project would increase the company's urea production capacity by 54 percent compared with current levels.
The investment decision adds a long-term growth element to the fertilizer business. Higher production capacity could strengthen SABIC Agri-Nutrients' ability to serve international markets, although future returns will remain exposed to fertilizer prices, feedstock costs and export logistics.
Parent company reports recovery
SABIC reported third-quarter revenue of SAR 28.17 billion, up 14 percent from the previous quarter, while adjusted EBITDA rose 40 percent to SAR 4.75 billion. Adjusted net income reached SAR 0.84 billion after an adjusted net loss of SAR 0.38 billion in the second quarter.
The figures describe the parent company's performance and should not be treated as standalone results for Saudi Arabian Fertilizer. For investors, the planned capacity buildout offers a longer-term operating catalyst, while the quarterly recovery provides the wider group context.
