Emaar Properties demonstrated a resilient performance in H1 2020 by recording revenue of AED 9.032 billion (US$ 2.459 billion) across its assets in the first half of the year (January-June) and net profit of AED 2.007 billion (US$ 546 million), despite the impact brought to bear by the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy.
Emaar delivered half-yearly property sales of AED 5.120 billion (US$ 1.394 billion). In line with the UAE’s globally acclaimed strategies in combating the pandemic, Emaar Properties’ half-yearly performance was underpinned by the company’s ongoing investment in innovation and digitalisation across its businesses.
Mohamed Alabbar, Founder of Emaar, reaffirmed Emaar’s resilience during the unprecedented times: “Our performance in the first half of 2020 has demonstrated our fundamental ability to retain strength and act with agility and speed in the face of the challenges presented by Covid-19. Emaar’s performance is a testament to the products we introduce and the people behind these innovations. Each year we set the bar higher, raising the expectations across all our businesses to ensure every Emaar touchpoint is met with the same standard of excellence”.
“We’ve placed an even greater emphasis on being a lean organisation and, through our geographical expansion, we have been able to deliver a solid performance. By acting boldly, innovating, revisiting our talent and retaining cash liquidity, I truly believe we have delivered a strong result despite the many challenges we faced. As the world emerges from Covid-19, I am confident that we will use our strength, talent and business diversity, that we have focused even more intensively on during these challenging times, to face the future stronger than ever.” he added.
Emaar amplified its already strict health and safety regulations across its assets, increased strength in serving its communities and introduced new innovative ways of staying connected to its customers.
Initiatives that were introduced to enhance the experience of Emaar include the launch of the new Emaar Properties website (emaar.com), direct online booking on emaar.com, alongside numerous initiatives and offers on the Emaar One app. Additionally, Emaar disrupted the market with several innovative features that allowed customers to connect with Emaar directly.
Among these are Emaar Virtual Assistant, a new brokers’ app – MyEmaar, the Interactive Map feature, and 360 Virtual Tour tours across Emaar communities and properties on emaar.com. The company’s most recently launched service, Emaar One on the Go, delivers an unparalleled personalised range of services direct to the customer’s own home and within their community. Further, Emaar has also provided an additional online sales channel to its retailers during these challenging times by opening a virtual store on noon.com.
