With a 22% increase in revenue to $24.4 billion and an 18% increase in adjusted EBITDA to $6.4 billion, indicating a high margin of 26.3%, DP World declared its best-ever financial performance for 2025.
Total Group gross throughput increased by 5.8% to 93.4 million TEU as a result of the company's rigorous operational approach and diverse global portfolio.
Improved operating leverage and strict cost control led to a 32.2% increase in net profit to $1.96 billion. Additionally, operating cash flow increased by 14% to $6.3 billion, demonstrating the robustness of DP World's integrated logistics system.
Chairman H.E. Essa Kazim indicated that DP World's strength in adapting to changing trade dynamics and geopolitical uncertainties stems from its diversified asset base and commitment to high-yield cargo, with its integrated model ensuring stability amidst global supply chain transformations.
Ports & Terminals performed exceptionally well, according to Group CEO Yuvraj Narayan, thanks to robust volume growth, increased yields, and strict cost management. As a result of improved asset utilisation, like-for-like revenue per TEU rose by 8.5%.
DP World strengthened its position as a fully integrated logistics provider in 2025 by combining its Marine Services activities under a single worldwide brand. Using its "One DP World" operational strategy to improve service delivery and foster deeper customer collaboration, the company proceeded to scale capabilities throughout its logistics and trade services platform.
Despite persistent geopolitical difficulties, Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) increased from 8.9% in 2024 to 9.9%, indicating greater earnings.
As DP World advanced development across major infrastructure assets, capital spending increased to $3.1 billion in 2025 from $2.2 billion in 2024. The company's standing as one of the top terminal operators in the world was strengthened when its global port capacity rose to 109 million TEU.
Moreover, DP World has set aside roughly $3 billion in expenditure for 2026, with a focus on important projects across significant trade corridors. Key investments include extensions at Jebel Ali, Drydocks World, Tuna Tekra in India, London Gateway in the United Kingdom, Ndayane in Senegal, and facilities in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. These projects seek to increase container handling capacity, improve multimodal connections, and promote long-term trade growth.
Shipping Training Courses in Dubai address port operations and logistics growth, exploring how capacity expansion, infrastructure investment, and integrated supply chain models enhance profitability and operational efficiency in global trade networks.
DP World announced that Jebel Ali Port is still fully functioning, with no infrastructure damage detected despite regional maritime interruptions. A brief suspension at one berth on March 1—caused by falling debris from a regional interception event—was quickly resolved, and normal operations resumed.
Besides, the corporation significantly advanced its environmental plan, lowering Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 14% compared to its 2022 baseline. Approximately 67% of its global electricity use currently originates from renewable sources, demonstrating DP World's commitment to decarbonising global trade.
Chairman Essa Kazim highlighted that, while geopolitical issues continue to influence near-term prospects, long-term trade fundamentals warrant continued investment in global transportation infrastructure.
DP World continues to prioritise operational resilience, network diversification, and customer-centric execution as it grows its integrated logistics ecosystem into important international markets.
