Binghatti Holding sees record AED 1.82 billion profit in first half of 2025
The performance was fueled by sustained demand for Binghatti's high-end developments, specifically its branded residences in partnership with global luxury icons.
The company's net profit surged 172 percent to AED 1.82 billion, up from AED 668 million in H1 2024. Revenue rose nearly threefold to AED 6.3 billion, while total sales climbed 60 percent year-on-year to AED 8.8 billion, solidifying Binghatti's position as one of the fastest-growing players in Dubai's dynamic real estate market.
Binghatti's development pipeline also expanded significantly, with the revenue backlog reaching AED 12.5 billion as of June 30, 2025 — nearly doubling from AED 6.6 billion a year earlier.
The jump was attributed to the launch of seven new projects, while five were delivered in the first half of the year, adding 1,441 units to the market.

Chairman Muhammad Binghatti
says: 'The first half of 2025 has been a period of exceptional growth for Binghatti Holding and the extraordinary year-on-year growth of our net profit and revenue is a reflection of the market's confidence in our differentiated model, one that is built around architectural excellence, speed of execution, and integrated value creation across the entire real estate ecosystem.
As Dubai continues to attract global capital and high-net-worth individuals, our developments have become increasingly relevant to an international audience. The rising share of non-resident buyers speaks volumes about both our reach and Dubai's position as a safe, fast-growing investment destination.'
Chairman Muhammad Binghatti
CEO Katralnada Binghatti added: 'Our H1 2025 results and operational achievements underscore the discipline, agility, and long-term thinking that drive every aspect of our business. Launching seven projects and handing over four in just six months demonstrates our operational leadership in the market and our deep commitment to on time delivery. Our growing backlog, diversified landbank, and expanding portfolio of unique branded residences created in partnership with global icons Bugatti, Mercedes-Benz Jacob & Co. provide the market with luxury living, investment value and architectural distinction.'

Branded residences attract global buyers
Binghatti's strategic collaborations with luxury brands Bugatti, Mercedes-Benz, and Jacob & Co. continue to elevate its appeal among global investors. The company's unique blend of architectural innovation and iconic design has drawn high-profile clients such as Brazilian footballer
Neymar Jr.
and opera legend Andrea Bocelli.
In H1 2025, 61 percent of Binghatti's sales came from non-resident buyers, up from 55 percent in H1 2024 — a clear sign of growing international demand. This was supported by the company's global outreach strategy, including the opening of a London sales office in July.
Expanding access for local buyers
While international demand continues to grow, Binghatti also saw strong domestic interest, supported by the UAE's rising population and government-backed housing initiatives.
In May 2025, Binghatti signed an MoU with Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (ADIB) to provide Sharia-compliant home financing for both ready and off-plan units. The structure allows eligible buyers to access financing once 35 percent of construction is completed and 50 percent of payments are made — enhancing affordability for local investors.
In July, Binghatti was selected by the Dubai Land Department (DLD) and Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism (DET) as one of 13 developers for the First-Time Home Buyer (FTHB) Program. As part of the initiative, 10 percent of Binghatti's residential units priced under AED 5 million will be reserved for first-time buyers, with early access, exclusive discounts, and reduced fees — benefitting both Emiratis and expatriates.
PropTech leadership and innovation
Binghatti further cemented its leadership in real estate innovation by becoming a founding partner of the Dubai PropTech Hub in July.
The Hub — a collaboration between the DIFC Innovation Hub and Dubai Land Department — aims to attract $300 million in venture capital by 2030 and drive adoption of AI, blockchain, and sustainable smart infrastructure. As a founding partner, Binghatti gains early access to cutting-edge startups through innovation labs and accelerator programs.
Binghatti's revenue rose 189 percent YoY to AED 6.3 billion
Aggressive development strategy and landmark land acquisition
Binghatti
currently has approximately 20,000 units under development across 30 projects in key Dubai locations, including Downtown, Business Bay, Jumeirah Village Circle, Meydan, and Dubai Science Park.
During H1 2025, the developer launched seven new projects spanning 5,000 units over 3.8 million square feet, and handed over five developments totaling 1,441 units across 1 million square feet.
The company also acquired a megaplot in Nad Al Sheba 1, at the heart of the Meydan district, with over 9 million square feet of gross floor area. This site will anchor Binghatti's first master-planned residential community, with a projected development value exceeding AED 25 billion.
Binghatti Holding sets itself apart in the market by being active across the entire real estate ecosystem
Credit ratings affirm strong financial position
Binghatti's credit strength was validated in H1 2025 by global rating agencies. In March, Moody's Ratings assigned the company a Ba3 Corporate Family Rating (CFR) with a stable outlook, citing its strong market position, vertical integration, and sound financial management.
Shortly after, Fitch Ratings upgraded Binghatti's Long-Term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) and senior unsecured debt to BB- from B+, also with a stable outlook. The firm's net debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 0.8x, robust liquidity, and ability to self-fund projects were among the key strengths highlighted. Both agencies noted Binghatti's improved governance and institutional credibility following its $500 million sukuk issuance, now listed on both the London Stock Exchange and Nasdaq Dubai.

Fäm Properties appointed exclusive master agency for Phase 1 of Dh60b Keturah Ardh master community
Fäm Properties has been appointed as the exclusive master agency for phase one of the Dh60 billion Keturah Ardh master development, Dubai's first heritage-wellness integrated luxury community. The first phase introduces a rare opportunity for investors and end-users to buy residential plots with permits to build luxury townhouses, a category of property that has become one of the most scarce and sought-after asset classes in Dubai's luxury market today. Located in the Al Rowaiyah First District, the project from MAG Group combines traditional Arabic architectural principles with comprehensive modern wellness innovation. Including 93 planned clusters and 558 luxury townhouse plots, Phase One is being brought to market with attractive payment plans. The wider master plan will combine Arabic heritage with advanced wellness to create a self-contained lifestyle community unlike anything else in Dubai. The name 'Ardh,' meaning 'earth' or 'land' in Arabic, reflects its strong ties to culture and nature. More than 9,800 millionaires are expected to relocate to the UAE this year. Dubai in particular is a beacon for wealthy investors, so the demand for new luxury property is very strong. Dubai's property market continues on its record-breaking path, with the first half of 2025 reaching new highs of 98,603 property sales worth Dh326.7 billion. H1 sales value rose 40% year-on-year, driven by the strongest-ever quarterly performance of 53,118 transactions worth Dh184 billion in Q2. The Q2 sales value was 25% higher than the previous peak of Dh147.2 billion set in Q4 2024, while transaction volume rose 5.39% above the earlier high of 50,400 deals recorded in Q3 last year. Firas Al Msaddi, CEO of fäm Properties, said: 'We're excited to team up with MAG Group on such a distinctive project. Keturah Ardh is a great fit for our expertise in off-plan sales, land advisory, and creating flexible payment solutions that meet the needs of today's buyers. This isn't a typical real estate launch, and it isn't a typical product. We're introducing Dubai's most exclusive heritage-wellness opportunity: freehold plots with luxury townhouse permits, ready for those who want to build, design, and invest in generational value while honouring authentic Arabic cultural heritage.' The Keturah Ardh project reflects MAG Group's 45-year commitment to excellence and innovation, with a focus on Arabic design and premium wellness amenities, including spa and sauna, yoga and pilates, running and cycling tracks and green areas. Mature landscaping features trees from Italy, Spain, Thailand, and Africa, all within a masterplanned community focused on long-term value creation. Infrastructure delivery is scheduled for Q1 2026, with construction beginning in Q4 2026 and full community completion by 2030. This community marks the fourth major project in the Keturah luxury portfolio.

Shariah-compliant stocks turn UAE markets into year's hottest trade
The UAE's local equity markets have delivered standout returns over the past year, cementing the country's position as one of the world's best-performing investment destinations. Dubai's equity benchmark, the DFM General Index, surged more than 27 per cent in 2024 and is up a further 18 per cent year-to-date in 2025. This broad-based rally spans financials, real estate, and newly listed infrastructure companies, with Shariah-compliant stocks featuring prominently among the top performers. According to Josh Gilbert, market analyst at eToro, this momentum reflects growing investor demand for high-growth opportunities in ethically screened assets. 'Shariah-compliant stocks in the UAE have become a strong draw for both regional and international investors looking to combine financial returns with responsible investing principles,' he said. Standout names include Salik, Dubai's exclusive toll-gate operator, whose shares have soared approximately 80 per cent, including dividends, over the last 12 months. Parkin, the city's public parking operator, has seen its stock price surge over 200 per cent including dividends since its IPO last year, as investors respond positively to its stable, defensive revenue model. The financial services sector has also played a key role in driving market performance. Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (ADIB), the UAE's second-largest Islamic bank, has posted gains of over 98 per cent including dividends in the last 12 months. Strong digital transformation, rising profit margins, and growing demand for Shariah-compliant financial services have underpinned this growth. Similarly, Amlak Finance, a key Islamic home financing provider, has seen its stock more than double in value over the past year, boosted by Dubai's thriving property market. In the real estate sector, Union Properties has emerged as one of the top performers of 2025, with shares rising over 100 per cent year-to-date. Its successful restructuring and the broader real estate upcycle have positioned it just behind Amlak Finance as one of the best-performing stocks on the DFM Index this year. These exceptional performances reflect renewed investor confidence in UAE equities. Strong macroeconomic fundamentals — including a projected real GDP growth of 4.4 per cent in 2025 and 5.4 per cent in 2026 — are helping to sustain momentum. High-profile IPOs like Parkin have further energized market participation, creating fresh investment opportunities and affirming global interest in the UAE's capital markets. Today, both the Dubai Financial Market (DFM) and Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) host a robust lineup of Shariah-screened stocks, with a large portion of all listed companies adhering to Islamic investment principles. The UAE's status as a global Islamic finance hub continues to attract capital from both Shariah-compliant and conventional investors looking to tap into the region's dynamic growth story. A compelling combination of market-beating returns, solid fundamentals, and ethical investment appeal is making UAE equities — particularly Shariah-compliant stocks — an increasingly attractive destination for regional and international capital. As the country continues to diversify its economy and bring more companies to market, investor interest in these instruments is likely to deepen further, analysts say.
