This demonstrates a clear link between rigorous governance and robust economic performance, said an ADX statement.
The statement said ADX achieved a 98% compliance rate for the disclosure of the audited annual financial statements for 2025, reinforcing its commitment to the highest standards of market integrity and transparency.

A total of 99 out of 101 traded listed companies submitted their audited results within the legally mandated 90-day disclosure period. The figures exclude two companies with different fiscal calendars: one has already complied with its June year-end deadline, and the otherâs March year-end report is not yet due.
Abdulla Salem Alnuaimi, Group Chief Executive Officer of the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) Group, said: âThe higher compliance rate and lift in net profit tell a clear story of resilience as ADX-listed companies and their efforts in advocating good governance standards. At the ADX Group, our priorities remain focused on providing an agile and liquid capital market, supported by a diversified investor base, strong institutional participation, and a regulatory framework that continues to strengthen investor confidence. We will leave no stone unturned to bolster Abu Dhabi and the UAEâs economic evolution, growth, and competitiveness.â
In 2025, ADX-listed companies distributed close to 74 billion dirhams in dividends to its shareholders and investors. This sustained commitment to corporate governance reinforces the ADXâs continuing efforts to attract and retain sophisticated global capital and expertise to Abu Dhabi.
