Borouge Shareholders Approve $660M Dividend as Profit Reaches $474M

Abu Dhabi-based Borouge announced that its shareholders have approved an interim dividend of $660 million (8.1 fils per share) after a strong first half of 2025.

Dividend plan

The company confirmed it will pay a total dividend of 16.2 fils per share for 2025, up from 15.88 fils in 2024. The second part of the dividend (another 8.1 fils per share) will be paid in the first quarter of 2026, according to a filing with the Abu Dhabi Exchange (ADX).

Since its IPO in June 2022, Borouge has paid out $4.24 billion in dividends, giving shareholders a 30% total return. The company has also bought back 141 million shares this year under its approved share repurchase program.

Financial results

Borouge earned a net profit of $474 million in the first half of 2025, supported by strong sales, good pricing, and strict cost control.

Its major Borouge 3 turnaround project finished earlier than planned and within budget. Meanwhile, the company’s $8 billion Borouge 4 project is over 90% complete and will add 1.4 million tons of production capacity per year by the end of 2026.

Looking ahead

Borouge plans to launch Borouge Group International in early 2026. The new company is expected to become a $60 billion global petrochemical leader and the world’s fourth-largest producer of polyolefins. It also aims to keep paying at least 16.2 fils per share in annual dividends until 2030, subject to approvals.
