Investcorp Capital (ICAP) has announced its financial results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, covering the six months ended 31 December 2025 (H1 FY26).

ICAP maintained a resilient performance in H1 FY26, reflecting disciplined execution and solid income generation, keeping the company on track to achieve its FY2026 dividend target of 8% on opening NAV.

Total operating income increased 16% year-on-year to $52 million, while net profit remained steady at $27 million. The company expanded its asset portfolio to $1.96 billion, highlighting its ability to create sustainable shareholder value through strategic capital deployment into attractive investment opportunities.

Gross operating income reached $52 million in H1 FY26, up from $45 million in H1 FY25. Revenue from underwriting activities remained largely stable at $24 million, $1 million lower than the same period last year, delivering a 10% annualised effective yield. Revenue from co-investment activities rose 47% to $25 million, compared with $17 million in the corresponding period last fiscal year. Operating expenses declined to $4 million.

The Board declared an interim dividend of AED 0.092/$0.025 per share, amounting to $55 million in total (31 December 2024: AED 0.094/$0.026 per share, or $56 million). This represents half of the company’s targeted full-year dividend and aligns with its current dividend policy, which remains in place until the end of June 2026.
