Saudi Aramco has announced a significant reduction in its dividend for 2025, slashing it to $85 billion. This is a major downgrade from last year’s record payout of $124 billion. This 31% drop comes amid weaker earnings, with Aramco's net income for 2024 reaching about $105 billion, narrowly missing analyst expectations.
