Abu Dhabi – Mubasher: The shareholders of Borouge approved a final 2025 dividend of $1.32 billion, reflecting the company’s strong operational performance and record sales.
The final dividend payment stands at $658 million (8.10 fils per share), bringing the full-year dividends to $1.32 billion (16.20 fils per share), according to a press release.
Borouge will disburse the dividends on or around 7 May 2026 to all shareholders of record as of 17 April.
The group has distributed $4.89 billion in dividends since listing, one of the largest payout levels on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) over this period.
Sultan Al Jaber, Chairman of Borouge, said: “Demonstrating strong market resilience, Borouge Plc continues to lead the industry as the world’s most profitable polyolefins company, supported by its robust financial position.”
He added: “Building on this strength, the Company is advancing its transformative growth journey through Borouge International. We are evolving into a global polyolefins powerhouse, combining technology leadership, cost efficiency and expanded scale across North America, the Middle East, and Europe.”
Hazeem Sultan Al Suwaidi, Chief Executive Officer of Borouge, commented: “Borouge delivered a strong and resilient performance in 2025, reaffirming the strength of our operating model in a dynamic global polyolefins market. We reinforced our leading cost position and our ability to deliver consistent performance across the cycle.”
On 31 March, XRG and OMV successfully completed the combination of Borouge and Borealis GmbH into Borouge Group International AG and the acquisition of NOVA Chemicals Corporation, creating the world's leading pure-play polyolefins company.
The proposed tender offer, which would convert Borouge’s shares to Borouge International, is expected to align with the new company’s future equity raise to maximize value for all shareholders.
The transaction is expected to take place in 2027, subject to market conditions and approval by the UAE Capital Market Authority.
