Dubai Investments has posted one of its best financial performances in recent years, recording a profit before tax of Dh1.09 billion for the first nine months of 2025 — a 59% increase compared with the same period last year.

For the third quarter alone, profit surged to Dh550.44 million, more than double the Dh256 million earned during the same quarter in 2024. The sharp rise was driven by higher rental income from the company’s expanding property portfolio, steady performance in manufacturing, and stronger investment returns.

Total assets climbed to Dh23.57 billion as of September 30, up from Dh22.01 billion at the end of 2024. Meanwhile, equity attributable to shareholders grew to Dh14.37 billion, compared to Dh14.11 billion during the same period last year.

“The substantial growth in profitability is a direct result of the Group’s strategic focus on real estate and income-generating assets, supported by disciplined execution and prudent asset management,” said Khalid Bin Kalban, Vice Chairman and CEO of Dubai Investments.

The company’s ongoing expansion is anchored in real estate development, where several major projects are underway. Construction continues at Violet Tower in Jumeirah Village Circle, a residential and hotel development at Danah Bay on Al Marjan Island, and Asayel Avenue at Mirdif Hills. Villas at Danah Bay are being handed over in phases as the project nears completion.

In the manufacturing sector, Emirates Float Glass has begun work on a second production line at KEZAD, which will double its capacity and introduce advanced low-iron Ultra Clear glass. Dubai Investments’ Al Mal Capital REIT has also expanded its healthcare portfolio with the acquisition of NMC Royal Hospital in Dubai Investments Park.

Internationally, the company marked a major step forward with the completion of infrastructure works for Phase 1 of DIP Angola. The site has already attracted multiple investors across various zones, reflecting rising interest in Dubai Investments’ Africa platform.

The Group said it will continue to focus on scalable sectors, operational efficiency, and long-term value creation across local and international markets.
