Al Mal Capital REIT (AMCREIT), the first REIT listed on the Dubai Financial Market (DFM) and regulated by the UAE Capital Market Authority, announced a final dividend of 3.75 fils per unit for the second half of the financial year ending 31 December 2025.
The total distribution amounts to AED 26,295,540, compared to AED 19,270,871 for the first half of the year. This distribution, in line with AMCREIT’s Investment Policy and regulatory compliance, reflects an annualized return of 7.5% to unitholders.

Capital Increase and Strengthened Equity Base
The dividend is declared on AMCREIT’s enhanced capital base of AED 701,214,386, following a successful Follow-On Public Offering (FPO) in 2025, which raised approximately AED 206 million. This milestone strengthened the REIT’s equity position and supports its long-term growth and investment plans.
Strategic Portfolio Expansion
During 2025, Al Mal Capital REIT expanded its real estate portfolio through the acquisition of NMC Royal Hospital and Falcon House, marking its first entry into the healthcare sector. These investments complement the REIT’s existing education assets, diversifying its portfolio and enhancing income stability.
The current portfolio now includes seven income-generating assets across the education and healthcare sectors, secured by long-term leases with financially strong tenants. The total portfolio value stands at approximately AED 1.4 billion, with a weighted average unexpired lease term (WAULT) of 16 years, ensuring stable and predictable cash flows.
Financial Optimization and Debt Management
In 2025, Al Mal Capital REIT also refinanced select financing facilities, improving the debt maturity profile and reducing financing costs. These measures reflect the REIT’s disciplined capital management and its commitment to delivering sustainable returns to investors.
