Performance update
Agility Vice Chairman Tarek Sultan said: 'We are pleased to report that the year has started on a positive note from an operational perspective. While market conditions remained somewhat challenging, our operating entities continued to demonstrate good organic growth. This performance reflects the strength of our diversified portfolio and the commitment of our teams across the business.'Agility KSCP's performance in the first quarter was primarily driven by Agility Global PLC, which reported an EBIT of USD 92 million and revenue of USD 1,143 million in Q1 2025. These results were supported by strong contributions from its three largest businesses: Menzies, Tristar, and Agility Logistics Parks (ALP). Financial performance for Agility Global in the period was impacted by higher depreciation and interest expenses associated with ongoing investments to support future growth. 'Other businesses in Kuwait remain committed to executing their growth strategies while actively pursuing opportunities to enhance value and returns for shareholders,' Sultan said. 'GCS remained focused on driving operational efficiency and growth, while MRC achieved a significant milestone by securing the contract to develop and operate a Metal Reclamation Facility (MRF) for KNPC and KIPIC refineries — an important addition to our industrial services portfolio."
He added: "We're also pleased with the steady progress at ALP Kuwait's S2/South Village project, a strategic commercial and logistics hub designed to serve the growing needs of Sabah Al-Ahmad City. The project is advancing as planned, with first deliveries scheduled for 2025."
