Nakheel H1 profit soars 53pc to $770m

DUBAI, July 27, 2015

Nakheel, a leading Dubai-based developer, today announced a net profit of Dh2.83 billion ($770 million) for the first six months of 2015, an increase of 53 per cent on the H1 2014 profit of Dh1.85 billion ($503 million).

The sharp increase is mainly due to continued strong performance by Nakheel’s development business, with ongoing handovers of properties to customers, the company said.

The company’s growing retail, leasing and leisure businesses also contributed to the overall financial results for H1 2015, said Nakheel.

It said: "Nakheel continues to focus on completing various development projects currently under construction, as well as expanding its retail, hospitality and residential leasing projects to further contribute to the growth in Dubai’s real estate market and to further strengthen the overall financial position of the company."
 
Nakheel chairman Ali Rashid Lootah said: “We have achieved a significant increase in our net profit for the first half of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. We will build on these results during the second half of this year, and remain committed to playing a key role in contributing positively and effectively to Dubai’s real estate sector.

"Our strategy of continuing to create more cash-generating assets will further boost our business and financial results in the coming years. As ever, we thank the Government of Dubai for its ongoing support and our investors for their increasing trust and confidence in Nakheel.”  - TradeArabia News Service
