Al-Ahram Printing Company has released an update on its legal and administrative situation, particularly regarding its factory. According to a statement to the Egyptian Stock Exchange, the company reported that on August 18, 2026, the court decided to reject the bankruptcy petition filed against it during a preparatory session. This petition was submitted by a claimant who had filed a lawsuit numbered 6 of 2026 for bankruptcy before the Third Circuit, with a hearing set for September 26, 2026.
In addition to the bankruptcy petition, Al-Ahram Printing Company has taken further legal action. The company filed a lawsuit to annul the procedures of the public auction conducted on Saturday, August 29, 2026, and subsequent legal actions. This lawsuit was registered under number 23 of 2026 as an enforcement dispute before the Alexandria Economic Court, with a hearing scheduled for September 28, 2026. These legal maneuvers indicate ongoing disputes over the company's assets and operations.
A significant development occurred on September 9, 2026, when Al-Ahram Printing Company took possession of its factory. This followed the end of the judicial guardianship period and the exit of the judicial guardian. Upon taking control, the company formed committees to inventory the contents and assets of the factory. The goal was to assess the actual state of assets, equipment, and raw materials on site.
The inventory process revealed certain discrepancies. The committees found some missing items and damages in production halls, warehouses, and administrative offices. The company disclosed these findings according to the procedures in place. This step is crucial for the company to understand the condition of its assets and to proceed with necessary actions.
The company's legal and administrative developments are being closely monitored by stakeholders.

Al-Ahram Printing Company aims to resolve these issues to stabilize its situation and continue its activities.
The Egyptian Stock Exchange and investors are keenly observing these developments. The company's statement provides insight into its efforts to address the challenges it faces.
