KUWAIT – United Projects for Aviation Services Company (UPAC), a commercial real estate and facilities management company, today announced its financial results for the first quarter of 2025. The company reported a net profit of KD 480 thousand, down 26% from 2024, or 1.19 fils per share. The company's recorded revenue for the quarter was KD 2 million, down 11% from 2024.
