Following a year of exceptional performance, Emaar continues to demonstrate stability, disciplined growth, and sustained market confidence, reinforcing the robustness of Dubai’s regulatory framework and capital markets environment.

In 2025, Emaar achieved its highest-ever property sales of AED 80.4 billion, alongside record revenue of AED 49.6 billion and net profit before tax of AED 25.7 billion. The company’s revenue backlog reached AED 155 billion as of 31 December 2025, providing strong visibility over future earnings and cash flows. Recurring income streams across malls, hospitality, leisure, entertainment, and commercial leasing accounted for 32 percent of total EBITDA, reflecting the strength of Emaar’s diversified and resilient operating model.
