Dubai Investments, a leading diversified investment firm listed on the Dubai Financial Market (DFM), reported a profit before tax of AED 546.28 million for the first half of 2025, marking a 26% year-on-year increase from AED 431.68 million during the same period in 2024. The robust growth reflects strong contributions from the Group’s core real estate and manufacturing segments.
For the second quarter alone, profit before tax reached AED 361.39 million — up from AED 309.34 million in Q2 2024 — demonstrating continued momentum across business units.
Despite a slight dip in total income to AED 1.89 billion, compared to AED 2.03 billion in H1 2024, Dubai Investments delivered higher profitability, underscoring improvements in operational efficiency and earnings quality.
Total assets stood at AED 22.74 billion as of 30 June 2025, rising from AED 22.10 billion at the end of 2024. Equity attributable to shareholders, however, saw a marginal decline to AED 13.89 billion, down from AED 14.11 billion at the end of last year.
Commenting on the results, Khalid Bin Kalban, Vice Chairman and CEO of Dubai Investments, said:
“Our H1 2025 results demonstrate the resilience of our diversified portfolio and our focus on strategic, value-driven sectors. Real estate remains a cornerstone of our performance, with stable rental streams and progress on key developments, while our manufacturing operations continue to benefit from demand and operational efficiency.”
Growth Pipeline and Outlook
Looking ahead, Dubai Investments plans to intensify its focus on core growth areas, including real estate and financial services. The second half of 2025 is set to see continued progress on several high-profile projects:
- Asayel Avenue at Mirdif Hills: Entered early construction phase in June 2025.
- Danah Bay, Ras Al Khaimah: Phased villa handovers are underway.
- Violet Tower in Jumeirah Village Circle (JVC): Currently 26% complete, on track for Q2 2026 delivery.
In parallel, the successful Follow-On Public Offering (FPO) of Al Mal Capital REIT reflects strong investor interest and underscores Dubai Investments’ long-term strategy to scale income-generating assets in sectors such as healthcare, education, and industrial real estate.
With a robust development pipeline, disciplined execution, and growing investor confidence, the Group is well positioned to strengthen its market presence and deliver long-term value to shareholders.
