UAE: RAK Ceramics reported strong margin performance and solid profit growth in Q4 and FY 2025, despite challenging conditions in some international markets. Growth was largely driven by robust activity in the UAE’s real estate and construction sectors, along with a higher contribution from premium products and project-based sales.

In Q4 2025, revenue declined slightly by 1.7% year-on-year, while full-year revenue increased by 1.6%. Gross profit margins improved to 39.1% in Q4 and 40.0% for the full year, reflecting a stronger product mix. Profit before tax rose significantly, increasing by 14.5% in Q4 and in FY 2025. Net profit after tax also grew, rising by 2.5% in Q4 and 6.2% for the full year.

EBITDA increased modestly by 1.0% in Q4 and by 5.3% for FY 2025, with EBITDA margins improving to 18.6% in Q4 and 19.0% for the full year. The UAE remained the strongest-performing market, with revenue rising by 13.4%, supported by strong demand for tiles and sanitaryware, increased project activity, and growing adoption of premium products such as large-format porcelain tiles.
