Julius Berger Nigeria Plc has proposed a final dividend of ₦4.25 per share, amounting to a total payout of ₦6.8 billion to shareholders, following a strong financial performance in the 2025 financial year.
The construction company disclosed this in its annual report ahead of its 56th Annual General Meeting scheduled for June 18, 2026, in Abuja.
According to the report, revenue increased by 34.1 per cent from ₦566.71 billion recorded in 2024, driven by increased activities across its core business segments.
Profit before tax rose by 38.5 per cent to ₦40.95 billion, compared to ₦29.57 billion in the previous year, while net profit climbed to ₦30.17 billion.
The company also reported a 96 per cent increase in earnings per share, which rose from ₦9.54 in 2024 to ₦18.69.
Julius Berger attributed the performance to efficient project delivery across its civil engineering, building construction, services and diversification segments.
The company executed major infrastructure and building projects across the country during the year, reinforcing its position in Nigeria’s engineering and construction industry.
As part of its regional expansion strategy, Julius Berger established a subsidiary in the Republic of Benin, a move expected to create new business opportunities across West Africa.
The company also approved the leasing of its cashew processing facility in Epe, Lagos State, to a specialist operator in September 2025, saying the decision would enable it to focus more resources on its core engineering and construction operations.
Julius Berger expressed optimism about its future growth prospects, citing its strong financial position and technical capacity as key factors for securing new projects in Nigeria and across the region.
The forthcoming AGM is expected to provide shareholders with further details on the company’s performance and strategic direction.
