Ooredoo Group reported its fourth consecutive year of double-digit net profit growth, with net profit rising 12 percent to QR3.9 billion for the year ended December 31, 2025, supported by strong operational performance and continued investment in digital infrastructure across its markets.
Revenue reached QR24.6 billion, reflecting a 6 percent year-on-year increase excluding the impact of the company’s exit from Myanmar. Normalised net profit grew 10 percent to QR4 billion, while EBITDA increased 7 percent, delivering a margin of 42.6 percent. The Board proposed a cash dividend of QR0.75 per share, representing a 15 percent increase compared to the previous year.
Growth was driven by strong performances across key markets including Algeria, Iraq, Tunisia, Kuwait, and Qatar, supported by network investments and improvements in customer experience. The Group continued executing its infrastructure-led strategy through initiatives such as the RISE framework, aimed at expanding into digital infrastructure and adjacent platforms expected to contribute around 15 percent of revenue by 2030.
During the year, Ooredoo expanded its AI-ready data centre capabilities through Syntys, increasing total capacity to 30MW following the acquisition of Q Data. The Group also advanced tower consolidation efforts through a regional partnership with Zain Group and TASC Towers Holding, creating one of the largest tower companies in the region. Meanwhile, Ooredoo Financial Technology International continued scaling mobile-led financial services through partnerships with PayPal, Western Union, Visa, and QNB.
Capital expenditure increased 44 percent year-on-year to QR4.6 billion as the Group accelerated investments in network performance and growth markets. Despite higher investment levels, Ooredoo maintained a strong balance sheet with QR15 billion in cash reserves and a low net debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 0.4x.
