"Careem not actively considering IPO, aims to be profitable in couple of years, CEO says
The company needs visibility before it can move towards a public offering. Careem could consider selling shares to the public once the company is profitable but an IPO is not on the books at the moment, according to chief executive Mudassir Sheikha.
"We take these meetings, but we are not actively pursuing it, we just take the meetings because they want to meet us and we listen to them.” The company is in early stage talks with banks about listing, Bloomberg reported last week.
Careem, which was founded six years ago, serves 12 million customers in 80 cities ranging from Pakistan to Turkey, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Egypt and Morocco. The company raised US$350 million in December 2016 from investors including Japanese e-commerce leader Rakuten and Saudi Telecom, giving the company a $1 billion valuation."
