SUGAR LAND, Texas, Aug. 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Trecora Resources ("Trecora" or the "Company") (NYSE: TREC), a leading provider of specialty hydrocarbons and specialty waxes, today provided an update on the previously announced sale of its shares in Al Masane Al Kobra Mining Co., a Saudi Arabian joint stock company ("AMAK").
On August 14, 2020, Trecora completed the sale of approximately 5.8 million shares of Trecora's overall ownership in AMAK to two of the purchasers, for which the Company received remaining payments from these purchasers of approximately $12.9 million. These payments reflect a withholding by one of these purchasers of approximately $2.1 million for the estimated aggregate capital gains taxes payable in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for all shares of AMAK sold by Trecora to all of the purchasers, and which will be paid by such purchaser on the Company's behalf as an administrative accommodation.
Following this transaction, Trecora's ownership percentage in AMAK has been reduced from 27.0% to 21.3%.
