Dangote Cement Plc manufactures, sells and distributes cement, and is the largest cement producer in Sub-Saharan Africa. The business is organised in two arms: Nigeria Operations, which produces and distributes cement domestically from plants at Obajana in Kogi State, Ibese in Ogun State and Gboko in Benue State, and Pan-Africa Operations, which runs plants and sales subsidiaries in more than nine other African countries. Nigeria accounts for roughly two thirds of group revenue and pan-African operations for the remainder. The company continues to commission new capacity, including a 6Mta plant at Itori in Nigeria and expansions in Ethiopia, Cameroon, South Africa, Zambia and Senegal.
Reported by geography: Nigeria operations approximately 67.9% of revenue and Pan-African operations approximately 32.1%. Group revenue rose 20.3% to N4,306.7 billion for the year ended 31 December 2025, with profit after tax of N1,014.9 billion.

The dividend is permissible to receive once purified. Qistal publishes the purification rate for the current accounts period inside your compliance report, so you can work out the exact amount to give away.
Qistal re-screens every NGX ticker when new audited or interim accounts are filed. This page always shows the date of the most recent screen.
