The revenue surged 25% year-on-year (YoY) to AED 5.75 billion in Q1-26, through pure organic growth, driven by the strong operational and financial performance of the Maritime & Shipping and Economic Cities & Free Zones (EC&FZ) Cluster.

The group’s strong performance reflects the resilience of its diversified and integrated trade ecosystem amidst the challenging and complex geopolitical and macroeconomic backdrop.
Group CEO of AD Ports, Mohamed Juma Al Shamisi, said: “We acted swiftly to mitigate disruption, elevating the ports in Fujairah and Khorfakkan as alternative gateways for the country and the region, launching contingency feeder shipping services, expanding warehousing capacity, and activating integrated land, rail, and air bridges that will sustain our growth into Q2 and beyond.”
In 2025, AD Ports generated net profits valued at AED 2.08 billion, an annual rise of 19% from AED 1.77 billion.
