Emaar just confirmed billions going straight back to shareholders.
At the same time, property sales for 2025 reached AED 80.4 billion. That is one of the biggest figures the company has reported, and it puts fresh attention on Dubai’s real estate space right now.
This update brings together major cash returns and strong sales in one moment.
AED 8.8 Billion Set For Shareholders
Emaar has approved a full dividend payout of AED 8.8 billion, which equals about $2.4 billion.
The payout was confirmed during the company’s annual general meeting, where shareholders signed off on the distribution. A full dividend at this level stands out, especially at a time when global markets are still finding balance.
It sends a clear message about the company’s financial position and its approach to shareholder returns.
Property Sales Reach AED 80.4 Billion
Alongside the dividend, Emaar reported property sales of AED 80.4 billion for 2025.
Sales recorded growth of around 16 percent compared to the previous year. The number highlights ongoing activity across the market, with continued interest in residential and mixed use developments.
This figure ranks among the highest sales totals recorded by the company.
Revenue, Profit, And Backlog Stay Strong
Emaar’s financial performance extends beyond sales.
Revenue reached AED 49.6 billion, while profit before tax came in at AED 25.7 billion. EBITDA was reported at AED 25.6 billion.
Another key figure is the sales backlog, which stands at AED 155 billion. This represents future revenue tied to projects that are already in progress.
What This Signals Right Now
This moment brings together several key indicators at once.
High property sales, strong revenue, and a major dividend payout all point to continued activity in Dubai’s real estate sector. Developers are still active, and buyer interest remains steady across different segments.
At the same time, companies are in a position to return capital while maintaining project pipelines.
Emaar’s latest update puts a spotlight on both performance and payouts.
With AED 80.4 billion in property sales and AED 8.8 billion returned to shareholders, the company has delivered one of the biggest updates in the sector this year.
It is a moment that keeps Dubai real estate firmly in focus.
