Dubai, United Arab Emirates – 8 August 2024:  Emaar Properties PJSC (DFM: EMAAR) has released its financial results for the first half of 2024, showcasing consistent resilient performance and operational efficiency across its various businesses. 

Key Accomplishment Highlights

Emaar recorded total revenue of AED 14.4 billion (US$ 3.9 billion) and a net profit before tax of AED 7.8 billion (US$ 2.1 billion), achieving growth of 17% and 33% respectively over the same period last year. The improved performance was driven by sustained investors' confidence and robust demand in Dubai's real estate market, strong project execution capability, as well as continued growth in tourism and retail sales. Emaar's strategy to improve profit margins and optimise operational efficiencies resulted in Emaar achieving a 24% growth in EBITDA, which rose to AED 8 billion (US$ 2.2 billion) in H1 2024.

Emaar outperformed its Q1 2024 group property sales in Q2 2024 resulting in achieving record group property sales in H1 2024 of AED 31.5 billion (US$ 8.6 billion), a 56% growth compared to H1 2023. This robust momentum in property sales further expanded Emaar's revenue backlog from property sales, which reached AED 90.1 billion (US$ 24.5 billion) as at the end of June 2024, up 43% from June 2023 and 15% from March 2024. This backlog represents future revenue from property sales that will be recognised over the next 4-5 years, indicating sustained profitability.

Commenting on the strong performance, Mohamed Alabbar said: 'Emaar delivered remarkable results in the first half of the year, reflecting our commitment to long-term success and customer satisfaction. Our strategic investments in key locations and other major assets have yielded impressive returns. With a clear vision and pragmatic approach, we maximise value for our stakeholders. We are confident in executing our business strategies and proud of our significant contribution to Dubai's economic landscape and reinforcing its global leading position.'

UAE Build-to-Sell Property Development

Emaar Development PJSC (DFM: EMAARDEV), a majority-owned subsidiary, successfully launched 25 projects across various masterplans and achieved the highest-ever property sales of AED 29.7 billion (US$ 8.1 billion) during the first half of 2024, reflecting a growth of 56% over H1 2023. 

Emaar Development continue to demonstrate its strong financial performance in Q2 2024 which resulted in revenues reaching AED 7.3 billion (US$ 2 billion) and recorded EBITDA of AED 3.4 billion (US$ 925 million) in H1 2024, showcasing remarkable growth of 65% and 47% respectively over H1 2023. The consolidated revenue of Emaar Properties from its property development business in the UAE during H1 2024 reached AED 9 billion (US$ 2.5 billion), including Dubai Creek Harbour.

In the first half of 2024, Emaar unveiled two expansive luxury living masterplans: 'The Heights Country Club & Wellness' and 'Grand Polo Club & Resort.' Together, these projects span over 140 million square feet and have a combined value of AED 96 billion (US$ 26 billion). The developments align with Dubai's vision to enhance quality of life and promote well-being across the emirate. Additionally, they are expected to elevate Emaar's sales and profitability in the coming years by offering more diverse options for luxury living.

With a continued uptrend in real estate sales, the backlog of Emaar from property sales in the UAE has reached AED 82.3 billion (US$ 22.4 billion), 33% higher than December 2023, which will be recognised as revenue in the coming years.
