The subscription period will run from 7 July to 25 July 2025, with trading of the new units expected to commence on the Dubai Financial Market (DFM) around 8 August 2025, subject to regulatory and market approvals.

In line with this performance, the REIT is also announcing a cash dividend of AED 0.0375 per unit for the interim period ending 30 June 2025, representing an annualized yield of 7.5%. To receive this dividend, investors must purchase units no later than 24 June 2025, as only unitholders on record as of 26 June 2025 will be eligible.

We are therefore pleased that we can offer more investors a chance to access Al Mal Capital REIT, the first REIT listed on the DFM, which continues to deliver strong and consistent dividends. Our focus on resilient real estate sectors which offer sustainable and recurring income based on secure cashflow and long-term demand, will be very attractive for both institutional and retail buyers.”
