Saudi Arabia's low-cost airline flynas IPO was 3.5 times over-subscribed by retail investors - this after it was 100 times over the mark in subscriptions generated from institutional buyers.

Each retail investor in flynas will get a minimum of 10 shares, and the remaining allocated pro-rata in proportion to the size of the demand. (This will result in an average allocation factor of 12.3%.)

The flynas IPO was one of the most high-profile ones to emerge from Saudi Arabia and the wider GCC in recent weeks. In the UAE, the Dubai Residential REIT generated significant investor interest for its stock market entry.

flynas had set the final offer price at SR80 a share, which is the top end of a previously announced price range. This sets up a market cap on listing day of SR13.6 billion ($3.6 billion).

"This followed strong demand from institutional investors, with the institutional tranche being oversubscribed approximately 100 times, generating orders of over SR 409 billion from local and international investors," said a statement.

In all, 10.25 million shares were allocated to retail investors, representing 20% of the total IPo size.

Any surplus subscription funds will be refunded to retail investors 'no later than 5 June'.

The listing date on Saudi Tadawul will be announced later.
