Dubai Investments, the diversified investment group listed on the Dubai Financial Market, has announced a significant rise in profitability for the first nine months of 2025. The company reported profit before tax of AED 1,096.72 million for the period ending 30 September 2025, marking a 59% increase compared to AED 687.68 million recorded during the same period last year.

For the third quarter alone, profit before tax surged to AED 550.44 million, up from AED 256.00 million in Q3 2024 — reflecting a strong 115% year-on-year growth.

The company attributed this performance to continued growth in rental income across its real estate portfolio, strong results from its manufacturing businesses, and positive contributions from its investment portfolio during Q3 2025.

As of 30 September 2025, the Group’s total assets reached AED 23.57 billion, compared to AED 22.01 billion as of 31 December 2024. Equity attributable to shareholders stood at AED 14.37 billion, up from AED 14.11 billion during the corresponding period last year.

Vice Chairman and CEO Khalid Bin Kalban said the results reflect the Group’s ability to deliver sustained value through a diversified and resilient business model. He highlighted the company’s focus on income-generating assets, operational efficiency and long-term capital growth as key factors supporting continued momentum.

Looking ahead, Dubai Investments plans to advance development across several major real estate projects, including Violet Tower in Jumeirah Village Circle, residential and hospitality components at Danah Bay on Al Marjan Island, and Asayel Avenue at Mirdif Hills. The phased handover of villas at Danah Bay is also in progress.

In the manufacturing sector, Emirates Float Glass has begun constructing its second float line at KEZAD, which will double production capacity and introduce Ultra Clear low-iron glass. Al Mal Capital REIT is expanding its portfolio, with its first post-FPO acquisition being NMC Royal Hospital in Dubai Investments Park.

On the international front, Dubai Investments has completed infrastructure works for Phase 1 of DIP Angola, with several investors already committing to projects within the development’s designated zones.
