Performance was supported by record fuel volumes, continued network expansion, inventory gains and sustained growth in the higher-margin non-fuel retail segment.

Fuel volumes reached a record 7.75 billion litres, supported by network expansion and resilient retail and commercial demand, while Adnoc Distribution’s fuel retail network across the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Egypt increased to 1,045 service stations, up 11 percent year-on-year.

Non-fuel retail gross profit increased 12 per cent, supported by higher footfall, increased transactions and an expanded food and convenience offering. The Hub by Adnoc supported non-fuel retail growth during the period.

The Board approved a Q2 2026 dividend of 5.14 fils per share, equivalent to $175 million, payable in September. Upon payment of the Q2 dividend, Adnoc Distribution will have distributed an estimated $5.8 billion (Dhs21.5 billion) in dividends since its IPO.
