Al Mal Capital REIT Announces Follow-Up Public Offering

Al Mal Capital REIT, listed on the Dubai Financial Market (DFM), regulated by the Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA), and managed by Al Mal Capital PSC, a subsidiary of Dubai Investments PJSC, on Tuesday invited existing unitholders, as well as UAE and GCC individual and institutional investors, to subscribe to new units in its close-ended Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) through an Follow-up Public offering (FPO).

The FPO, approved by the SCA, will issue up to 220,000,000 new units at a price of $0.27, increasing the issued capital of the Fund from around $140 million to approximately $200 million, Al Mal said in a bourse filing with DFM this morning.

The raise will be used to expand the REIT’s portfolio of income generating real estate assets carefully selected from secure growth sectors, including healthcare, education and mission-critical industrial assets.

The subscription period will run from 7 July to 25 July 2025, with trading of the new units expected to commence on the Dubai Financial Market (DFM) around 8 August 2025, subject to regulatory and market approvals.

Al Mal Capital REIT has a proven and stable track record having delivered a 7% return since 2023. It continues to target ongoing returns of 7%i for investors. In line with this performance, the REIT is also announcing a cash dividend of $0.010 per unit for the interim period ending 30 June 2025, representing an annualized yield of 7.5%. To receive this dividend, investors must purchase units no later than 24 June 2025, as only unitholders on record as of 26 June 2025 will be eligible.

Naser Al Nabulsi, Vice Chairman and CEO at Al Mal Capital said that there was a growing investor appetite for Regional REITs as shown by recent offerings on the DFM that saw record-breaking retail participation, especially in the UAE.

“We are therefore pleased that we can offer more investors a chance to access Al Mal Capital REIT, the first REIT listed on the DFM, which continues to deliver strong and consistent dividends. Our focus on resilient real estate sectors which offer sustainable and recurring income based on secure cashflow and long-term demand, will be very attractive for both institutional and retail buyers,” he added.

Open to GCC Investors

The FPO is open to UAE and GCC retail and institutional investors. A priority allocation will be available to subscribers who already hold units in AMC REIT, and whose names appear in the register of unitholders as of 26th June 2025.

These investors will be allocated units equal to approximately +39% of their current holdings, ensuring their ownership remains undiluted following the capital increase.

A secondary allocation of unsubscribed units, after completion of the priority allocation, will have a Minimum Guaranteed Allocation (MGA) of up to 2,000 units per eligible new subscriber, subject to request and availability.

Al Mal Capital REIT is a closed ended real estate investment trust (REIT) that is currently invested in a diversified portfolio of income generating real estate assets in the UAE, based on secure long-term lease agreements with a strong credit profile. The Fund gives UAE and GCC investors access to an asset class with long-term fundamentals, based on a strategy focused on investing in strong-performing UAE sectors, including healthcare, education and industrial assets.
