AD Ports Group reported a 41 per cent year-on-year rise in net profit for the first quarter of 2026, supported by strong growth across its ports, logistics, maritime, and economic cities businesses. The company attributed the improved performance to higher cargo volumes, international expansion, and increased contributions from recently acquired assets.
Revenue during the quarter also recorded solid growth as AD Ports continued to strengthen its global footprint through investments in terminals, shipping services, industrial zones, and integrated logistics infrastructure across the Middle East, Africa, Asia, and Europe. The company has been expanding aggressively through strategic acquisitions and partnerships aimed at boosting multimodal connectivity and trade flows.
AD Ports said container handling, bulk cargo operations, and maritime services remained key contributors to earnings growth during the quarter. Industry analysts noted that the group’s diversified business model and expanding international presence continue to support resilience amid evolving global trade conditions and shipping market volatility.
