On March 28, 2023, Jeff Ubben's Inclusive Capital Partners announced that it has urged OCI NV to explore strategic options, including asset sales, and said the Dutch fertilizer is worth nearly double its 5.54 billion euros ($6.01 billion) market value. Jeff Ubben, in a letter to the Company Executive Chairman Nassef Sawiris, said that the Company is significantly undervalued in the public markets and that the Iowa Fertilizer may achieve a substantially higher valuation in a strategic sale. In his letter, Jeff Ubben also suggested that the Company should consider additional share listings or a sale of Fertiglobe Plc, a joint venture between Abu Dhabi National Oil Co and OCI NV.
The Company's CEO, Ahmed El-Hoshy, stated that the Company plans to undertake a strategic review to address the points raised by Jeff Ubben and examine all potential suggestions.'
