Start of the play due to pending outcome of the ERCA approval?
Because of not giving dividend and the share can dropped way more, actually is good for investors to buy in. Waiting for 70+c to come

Olam to guarantee US$100 million loan for Olam Agri until unit is sold
The group is selling its 44.58% stake in Olam Agri to Saudi Agricultural and Livestock Investment Company
[SINGAPORE] Agribusiness Olam Group : VC2 -4.37% said its food, feed and fibre operating business Olam Agri, has secured a seven-year US$100 million financing facility, which will initially be guaranteed by the Singapore-listed group.
Olam said in a regulatory filing on Monday (Mar 2) that its unit will eventually be the guarantor after the group completes the proposed sale of its 44.58 per cent stake in Olam Agri to the Saudi Agricultural and Livestock Investment Company.
The proceeds, according to Olam, will be used by Olam Agri to support the flow of rice from India, Thailand and Vietnam to African countries where rice is a food staple.
Olam Agri, which sells grains and seeds and makes everything from edible oils to pasta, is one of Olam Group&rsquo s main units. It was created during a reorganisation in early 2020. The Gulf region is a growing market for the commodities it supplies and Saudi Arabia is putting a strong emphasis on food security.
The loan is provided by Dutch entrepreneurial development bank FMO.

ECOWAS is like the EU, a regional grouping not a single country.
It was explained that the requirement for a competition filing to be made to this regional entity was only recently introduced, hence why SALIC only recently made this filing. In fact the Olam Agri deal is one of the first transactions that has been filed under this new requirement.

Olam H2 earnings jump 213.4% as continuing operations improve final dividend withheld amid restructuring
The group has obtained approvals from all jurisdictions &ndash save for one &ndash for the sale of its 44.58% stake in Olam Agri
[SINGAPORE] Olam Group : VC2 -7.58% on Friday (Feb 27) posted a 213.4 per cent jump in net profit to S$120.3 million for its second half ended Dec 31, 2025, up from S$38.4 million a year earlier.
This came as losses from the group&rsquo s continuing operations narrowed to S$7.1 million, from S$130.4 million in H2 in its 2024 financial year.
Group revenue came in at S$33.7 billion, up 15.2 per cent year on year (yoy). This, Olam Group said, was driven by &ldquo strong volume and revenue growth in Olam Agri&rdquo .
Earnings per share stood at S$0.0278, up from S$0.0058 in H2 FY2024.
No final dividend was recommended for FY2025, versus a final dividend of S$0.03 per share a year earlier. An interim dividend of S$0.02 per share was paid out in August 2025.
&ldquo In view of the ongoing execution of the updated reorganisation plan and pending completion of the sale of Olam Agri to Salic (Saudi Agricultural and Livestock Investment Company), the board deems it prudent to conserve cash at this time to ensure operational resilience,&rdquo the group explained.
For FY2025, Olam Group&rsquo s net profit surged 419.3 per cent to S$444.1 million, from S$86.4 million the year before. Revenue, meanwhile, was up 19.3 per cent yoy at S$67 billion.
Top-line growth during the year was driven by the &ldquo pass-through of increased input prices&rdquo , particularly for cocoa, coffee and edible oils, the group said.
What&rsquo s next?
Olam Group has obtained approvals from all jurisdictions &ndash save for one &ndash for the sale of its 44.58 per cent stake in Olam Agri to the Saudis. The deal was first announced in February 2025.

The agribusiness hopes to obtain the final jurisdiction&rsquo s approval by the end of March, said co-founder and chief executive officer Sunny Verghese at an earnings briefing on Friday.
Separately, Verghese added that Olam Group expects the &ldquo completion and receipt of proceeds&rdquo from the sale of its remaining 32.4 per cent stake in port operator Arise P& L &ldquo sometime towards the end of April&rdquo .
The divestment of Arise P& L is part of the group&rsquo s multi-year restructuring plan to &ldquo unlock shareholder value&rdquo through the divestment and monetisation of all of its remaining assets.
The group said it intends to progressively distribute net proceeds to shareholders through special dividends.
Olam Group sold or wound down three businesses under the remaining group in FY2025, leaving it with seven.
&ldquo The primary objective (for the remaining Olam Group) is to continue to look for the right long-term owners of (its) seven businesses, while concurrently ensuring that these businesses continue to improve operational performance,&rdquo said Verghese.
Olam Group further shared that its food ingredients unit, ofi, is exploring a concurrent listing in Europe and in Singapore &ldquo at an appropriate time, and/or (a) private sale&rdquo .
Shekhar Anantharaman, executive director and chief executive officer of ofi, said the company was &ldquo holding up well for an initial public offering, but remains prepared for all alternatives in the company&rdquo .
Verghese remarked: &ldquo The macro climate condition is something in which you have to be nimble, agile (and) flexible, and have the ability to react very quickly. That will determine how Olam will perform, especially in 2026.&rdquo
Embarassing that Sunny refused to clarify to a direct question which was the outstanding jurisdiction for regulatory approval, even though one can see from publicly available sources that it is ECOWAS.
At least they explained why this was filed so late - it is a new requirement.

Olam hates us investors. Dropped a bomb today with no dividend and make us cry 
Seems like a fake sell to cause panic to flush off weak holders. Price seems stable and looks like accumulate by BB.
I thought based on 14t jan announcement, they did secure from lender.
They said banks/financing instutitions approval delays.
