ASE requests listed companies to file annual financial statements of 2024
AMMAN — Chief Executive Officer of Amman Stock Exchange (ASE) Mazen Wathaifi said that the ASE requests listed companies to submit their audited annual financial statements reports for the period ended December 31, 2024, through the e-disclosure System XBRL, prior to the end of Sunday, April 6.
Wathaifi said that the step is in line with the Jordan Securities Commission's decision to extend the legal deadline for submitting the 2024 annual reports until April 6, due to the coincidence of the annual report submission deadline with the Eid Al Fitr holiday, the ASE announced on its website.
Accordingly, the ASE will suspend trading in shares of the violating company as of the first working day following the above-mentioned deadline until it provides the ASE with the required reports by virtue of Article (15/B/6) of the Listing Directives.
The aim of requiring listed companies to provide the ASE with information and annual reports on timely basis is to enhance the protection of investors, transparency and disclosure in the capital market, and provide investors with the companies' information and results during the fiscal year, ASE said.
The ASE circulates these reports on the ASE website www.exchange.jo under the Circulars and Disclosures/ annual reports window to be reachable for those interested.
Also, the ASE will announce through media the violating companies' names that did not submit their audited annual reports within the specified period.

QAIA welcomes 4.4m passengers in H1 2025
AMMAN — Queen Alia International Airport (QAIA) recorded its 'highest-ever' semi-annual passenger traffic in the first half of 2025, welcoming 4.4 million travellers, marking a 6 per cent increase compared with the same period in 2024, the Airport International Group (AIG) said on Thursday. The rise in traffic was largely driven by the resumption of several regional and European routes, as well as increased travel during Ramadan and Eid Al Fitr. Aircraft movements also rose by 2.2 per cent, reaching 36,331 during the six-month period. Despite regional tensions disrupting some flight schedules in June, QAIA said that it continues to strengthen its position as a growing regional hub. 'We chose Jordan as a stop between Europe and the Gulf,' said Chloe Martin, a French tourist travelling with her family. Hasan M., a Jordanian residing in Qatar who was transiting through QAIA, commended the facility's recent enhancements. 'It's clear the airport is aiming for international standards. The new e-gates made passport control seamless, especially during peak hours,' he said. Tourism expert Rania Wazzan said QAIA's performance underscores Jordan's emerging role as a 'strategic' link between East and West. 'The airport's integration of green infrastructure and digital transformation gives it a strong competitive edge in regional tourism,' she noted. Reaffirming its focus on passenger experience, QAIA was named the 'Most Enjoyable Airport in the Middle East' for the second year in a row. In June, nine new smart gates were introduced to streamline arrivals and departures for Jordanian citizens. With expanding air connectivity, sustainability initiatives, and continued operational upgrades, QAIA is 'steadily' cementing its reputation as a world-class aviation gateway, AIG said.
