Sorouh continued its strong performance in Q2. Net profit was up 33% year-on-year, reflecting continued strengthening of sustainable recurring income streams from Sorouh’s investment portfolio, as well as revenues from its National Housing projects, subsidiaries and the release of contingencies and provisions.
Revenues from National Housing projects increased significantly, generating nearly AED1.2bn of revenue for the half year, representing an increase of 247% year-on-year
250 parking spaces in Sun & Sky Towers were sold, resulting in AED28 million of revenue.
AED82 million of other income derived principally from the release of contingencies and provisions that are no longer required on completed projects.
Exceptional performance for leasing activity during the quarter: 91 new leases signed in Sun/Sky, and 56 in al Murjan. 800 units were signed in Q2 for bulk corporate leasing of units in al rayyana. Strong overall leasing demand has led to a rise in revenues from investment properties of 22% quarter-on-quarter to almost AED50 million in Q2, and reaching AED 100 million for the half year, an increase of 18 % year-on-year. The Company is well on track to reach its target of AED500 million of annualised recurring income by 2014.
Robust financial position, with cash collections of approximately AED1billion in H1. AED1.1 billion of cash on balance sheet with low gearing of 41%.
Net asset value increased from AED2.37 per share to AED2.47 per share
Abubaker Seddiq Al Khouri, Managing Director, Sorouh, commented:
“We are very pleased to be able to report a continued strengthening of profitability in the second quarter and for the first half of the year, as the business continues on its path to maturity. The quality of earnings continues to improve through the diversification and strengthening of revenue streams. National Housing is now an important contributor to the quarterly revenue mix along with the increased amount of leasing income. At the same time, we are continuing to invest across our development portfolio to ensure that we meet the demand for high quality product with a pipeline of some 7,000 units.”

Sorouh to deliver 2500 new housing units by 2012
One of the leading Abu Dhabi-based real estate developers, Sorouh Real Estate, announced plans to deliver about 2500 new residential units to end users in the emirate by end of 2012, said Gurjit Singh, the Chief Operating Officer of the Company.
The deliveries will begin during the first quarter next year and will be done in phases. The handovers will begin with few apartments being delivered in the Sun Towers and the Sky Towers. Sorouh is currently focusing on delivery of its existing developments and those nearing completion and securing income from properties that generate rental revenues, Singh said.
He further pointed out that Sorouh had delivered projects such as Khalidiya Village, Sas Al Nakhi, and Al Ovoun, which will boost the rental income portfolio of the Company. Even the Golf Gardens development, adjacent to Abu Dhabi golf course is complete. The Gate Tower project too, is on schedule for completion in late 2012, he said.
According to Singh, Abu Dhabi market has seen lot of consolidation happening in all asset classes this year, and 2011 will witness more consolidation with the rental and capital values dropping so much that people will get back to the market.
Sorouh Real Estate was awarded the Construction and Real Estate Deployment of the Year Award for its Oracle Human Capital (Talent) Management Implementation project.
Sorouh Q3 profit up; merger talks ongoing: Abu Dhabi real estate firm reports 54.5 percent rise; no decision on Aldar merger yet
The second largest developer by market value in Abu Dhabi said it had net consolidated profit of AED129.2m (US$35.2m), up from AED83.6m in the prior-year period, it said in a statement on Abu Dhabi’s bourse.
Income was boosted after Sorouh reversed AED40m in contingency provisions for its Sun and Sky towers, which have been completed.
Revenue for the quarter dropped to AED803.4m from AED890.4m, down 9.8 percent.
The developer said its results were buoyed by revenue from national housing projects – government-awarded schemes to build homes for UAE citizens – which rose to AED607m from AED68m.
Sorouh said merger talks with rival Aldar, which were first announced in March, are at an advanced stage.
"A decision will be taken by the Company’s board of directors as to whether or not to recommend the merger to the company’s shareholders in due course," the statement said.
Shares of Sorouh have climbed 57.7 percent this year buoyed by the merger discussions with Aldar.
