what happened

According to TradingView, Salik's third-quarter and nine-month revenue and profit fell year on year because of geopolitical disruption, though results have improved since April. The Roads and Transport Authority compensated the company for a past VAT reassessment, so it had no net effect on profit. The key priority now is refinancing the AED 4.0bn loan, which must be repaid before June 2027.

why it matters

The picture is mixed for investors: operating momentum is weaker than a year ago, but the one-off VAT compensation removed the impact of the back-tax charge. The main risk ahead is whether the company can refinance its large debt in time, since its financial flexibility depends on it.
