    NNPC Ltd Set to Launch Initial Public Offer in Line with Petroleum Industry Act

    Published on

    By Hosea Parah, Abuja

    The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd) is poised to make its debut on the capital market, marking a significant milestone in line with the provisions of the Petroleum Industry Act (PIA) 2021. The company is currently in the final stages of preparation for an Initial Public Offer (IPO), with plans to list its shares in compliance with the Company and Allied Matters Act (CAMA) 1990.

    Mr. Olugbenga Oluwaniyi, the Chief Finance and Investor Relations Officer (CFIO) of NNPC Ltd, shared the latest developments during a consultative meeting with partners at the NNPC Towers in Abuja on Thursday. According to Oluwaniyi, the company is actively engaging with prospective partners in a process referred to as the “NNPC Ltd. IPO Beauty Parade.” This initiative aims to comply with capital market regulations before the official launch of the IPO.

    Oluwaniyi explained that the purpose of the “IPO Beauty Parade” is to identify potential partners and assess how they can support NNPC Ltd throughout the IPO process. He noted that the company is seeking partnerships in three specific areas: Investor Relations, IPO Readiness Advisers, and Investment Bank Partners. The partnership with the best offer in each category will be selected.

    The move to list NNPC Ltd on the capital market follows the requirements set by the Petroleum Industry Act, which mandates the company to open its shares to public investors. This landmark event is expected to enhance the company’s financial transparency and provide opportunities for broader investment in Nigeria’s oil and gas sector.

    NNPC Ltd’s IPO is seen as a crucial step towards greater corporate governance, operational efficiency, and strategic growth, as the company aligns with the evolving landscape of Nigeria’s energy sector.
