Just trust us. Be sure that we will ask for your rights,&#8221; he said.At the meeting shareholders approved a Dh1.5 billion rights issue, part of a recapitalisation plan, through which the company will extinguish Dh4.6bn in accumulated losses.Mr Al Rumaithi said that since he had been appointed as chairman in May 2015, all of its major projects have been loss making.&#8221;There is no project that we took which has been making profits. The previous reports [accounts] were wrong. We set up a committee and we visited all of these projects to make sure that everything is correct,&#8221; he said.He added that the recapitalisation plan was the best way forward for the business.&#8221;The easiest thing was for us to close it. But we are trying to make profitability. We care about the shareholders.
