Abu Dhabi, UAE – 13 February 2026:
AD Ports Group (ADX: ADPORTS) reported record financial and operational performance for FY 2025, achieving strong growth across its integrated trade, logistics, and industrial platform, and turning Free Cash Flow positive for the first time since its 2022 listing.
Financial highlights
- EBITDA increased 12% YoY to AED 5.1 billion, with a margin of 24.4%
- Net Profit (Q4 2025) reached AED 584 million, up 18% YoY
- Full-year Free Cash Flow turned positive, ahead of guidance
The Group’s performance was driven by robust momentum across its Ports, Economic Cities & Free Zones, and Maritime & Shipping clusters, supported by higher container volumes, new land lease activity at KEZAD, and expanded maritime and logistics operations.
Operationally, container throughput rose 23% YoY to 7.7 million TEUs, while feeder shipping volumes grew 38% YoY as the Group expanded its global shipping network and strengthened trade corridors across the GCC, Asia, Africa, and Europe. Demand for industrial land, warehousing, and integrated logistics services remained strong, supported by continued expansion in KEZAD and increased utilisation across industrial assets.
AD Ports Group also continued executing its international growth strategy, strengthening its presence across the Middle East, Central Asia, Pakistan, Egypt, Sub-Saharan Africa, and the Mediterranean, while enhancing synergies across its 34 port terminals and associated maritime and logistics services.
The UAE’s supportive macroeconomic environment, including strong non-oil trade growth and expanding Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreements (CEPAs), further reinforced the Group’s growth trajectory and demand outlook.
Looking ahead to 2026, AD Ports Group expects to build on its infrastructure-led growth strategy, expanding its Ports and Economic Cities platforms while scaling Maritime, Shipping, and Logistics services to deliver integrated, end-to-end solutions and long-term value for customers and shareholders.
