Nakilat’s 2016 profit amounted to 955 million riyals ($262 million) versus 984 million riyals a year earlier. In the fourth quarter, profit fell to 207 million riyals from 226 million riyals a year earlier, according to Reuters calculations; QNB Financial Services had predicted a quarterly profit of 241 million riyals.

The company’s board recommended distributing a cash dividend of 1 riyal per share, down from 1.25 riyals for 2015.

“The decline in oil and gas prices and overcapacity in the shipping industry has placed downward pressure on the shipping markets and asset prices,” Nakilat said.

“Nakilat’s approach to its dividend disbursement would enable the company to continue to maintain a strong balance sheet and stable cash flow to support its debt repayment structure and remain resilient in the current volatile market environment.”
