Abu Dhabi - Mubasher: The equityholders of Waha Capital approved a cash dividend of 10 fils per share for 2025, according to a press release.
This dividend reflects the company’s continued approach of balancing shareholder returns with long-term capital growth and the expansion of its investment platform.
At the same meeting, the shareholders authorized allocating up to 1% of Waha Capital’s net profits to corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives. This step reinforces the firm’s commitment to community engagement and responsible investment.
Waleed Al Mokarrab Al Muhairi, the Chairman of Waha Capital, said: “The 10 fils dividend strikes a balance between strong shareholder returns and our commitment to reinvesting in priority sectors.”
“We enter the coming period with a strengthened balance sheet, enhanced liquidity, and the flexibility to pursue opportunities aligned with our long-term strategy,” Al Muhairi added.
In 2025, the ADX-listed company recorded net profits attributable to shareholders worth AED 1.01 billion, compared to AED 381.27 million in 2024.
Mohamed Hussain Al Nowais, Managing Director of Waha Capital, commented: “Our performance in 2025 reflects disciplined capital allocation and active portfolio management across all three pillars of the business.”
“During the year, we realised significant value from mature investments, expanded third-party mandates within Waha Investments, and advanced Waha Land’s development pipeline,” he noted.
The Managing Director concluded: “As we look ahead, we remain focused on scaling institutional capital, redeploying proceeds into high-conviction sectors, such as healthcare and real estate, and continuing to do what Waha Capital does best: originating, building, and monetizing investments to create long-term value.”
