Madinet Masr Approves Largest Profit Distribution in Company History

Madinet Masr has launched the largest profit distribution project in its history for its 2025 earnings. The real estate pioneer announced the distribution of 85.4 million treasury stocks to shareholders, marking the first time a mechanism of this kind has been triggered since its listing on the Egyptian Stock Exchange in 1995. This follows a buyback programme launched in March 2025, underscoring the management’s confidence in the company’s growth trajectory, intrinsic value and long-term potential.

The distribution provided shareholders of record at the close of trading on 3 March 2026 with a ratio of 0.0416 (4%) treasury stocks for every outstanding share. Valued at EGP 463 million, the transaction was executed and ownership transferred during the trading session of March 9th, 2026.

In tandem with the share distribution, the company’s board of directors has also preliminarily approved a cash dividend of EGP 0.15 per share. This proposal is set for final approval at the Ordinary General Assembly scheduled for April, representing a multi-layered approach to rewarding the company's investor base through both equity and liquidity.

President and CEO Abdallah Salam highlighted the strategic importance of this milestone for the company’s market position and investor relations, He attributes the distribution to the company's operational strength and its robust landbank of 12.8 million square metres, noting that the company’s record results are a direct outcome of an integrated business model and a strategic asset base that has enabled the firm to generate sustainable cash flows and capitalise on growth opportunities efficiently.

“This decision marks the result of a transformative phase during which we have successfully redefined investment value in the real estate sector, while continuing to deliver sustainable growth and attractive returns for all stakeholders,” Salam said. He further explained that the move reaffirms the company’s commitment to sharing the benefits of growth through innovative financial mechanisms that strengthen confidence in the capital market.

With flagship developments such as Taj City and Sarai, Madinet Masr continues to focus on efficient liquidity management and the use of strategic financial instruments. This approach, supported by a track record of successful developments dating back to 1959, positions the company as a benchmark for growth and innovation within the regional real estate market. The executive management’s proactive strategy ensures that as the company expands its footprint across the country, it continues to leverage its deep market expertise to deliver long-term economic and social prosperity for its stakeholders.
