PureHealth, the Middle East’s largest healthcare platform, has announced plans to issue a dividend following double-digit growth in net profit, supported by increased capacity, diversified services, and a growing patient base.
The company has recommended a dividend payout of AED600 million ($163 million) for 2025, representing 30 percent of net profit, to be distributed in two equal semi-annual instalments.
Net profit climbed 18 percent to AED2 billion last year, despite the tax rate rising to 15 percent from 9 percent in 2024, according to a statement submitted to the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX).
Annual revenue increased by 6 percent to AED27.3 billion, buoyed by strong performance across PureHealth’s two main segments: cover and care.
Operational bed capacity expanded 27 percent to 6,900 across the UAE, the UK, Cyprus, and Greece, while patient interactions grew 16 percent, reaching 11 million.
Inpatient and outpatient volumes rose 22 percent and 17 percent, respectively, reflecting higher demand for the company’s services.
In October, PureHealth acquired a 60 percent stake in Hellenic Healthcare Group, a private healthcare provider in Greece and Cyprus, for €800 million ($950 million).
PureHealth’s subsidiaries, partly owned by Abu Dhabi’s sovereign fund L’imad, include Abu Dhabi Health Services Company, which manages a network of hospitals and clinics in the UAE, and the health insurer Daman.
