Key Takeaways
Since 2022, Swvl has undergone significant financial restructuring efforts in an attempt to reverse its fortunes after experiencing a steep decline in its share price. The company's share price plummeted by 90% from $10, prompting multiple threats of delisting from the NASDAQ. To address its financial challenges, Swvl executed a reverse stock split in January 2022, resulting in a share price increase to $4 per share. However, the share price quickly declined once again. Over the past year, Swvl's share price has experienced a remarkable recovery, surging by over 90% from $1.21 as of May 1, 2023, to its current level of $13.70. For Swvl, profitability is paramount to support its planned expansion into high-revenue markets. The company aims to expand its strategic partnerships into more Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, including Saudi Arabia and the UAE, in addition to its largest market, Egypt.
