REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The Board of Directors Devaar Development PJSC Dubai United Arab Emirates

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position of Deyaar Development PJSC (the "Company") and its Subsidiaries (together the "Group") as at 30 September 2022 and the related condensed consolidated interim statements of profit or loss, profit or loss and other comprehensive income, for the three month and nine month period ended 30 September 2022, the condensed consolidated interim statement of changes in equity and cash flows for the nine month period then ended. Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of this interim financial information in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34: "Interim Financial Reporting" (IAS 34). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements 2410: "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim financial information is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34.

9. Properties held for development and sale

The properties held for development and sale include land held for future development, properties under development and completed properties held in inventory.

Net realisable value has been determined on the basis of committed sale price if the remaining receivable amount is lower than the current market value of the units booked by customers. For units not yet booked by customers, net realisable value takes into consideration the expected market prices.

During the period, the Company has reclassified service apartment units amounting to AED 3.2 million to investment properties based on the change in use of these units (Note 7).

Plots of land including under development projects with total carrying value of AED 872 million (2021: AED 954.7 million) and completed properties with total carrying value of AED 65.6 million (31 December 2021: AED 43.7 million) are mortgaged under Islamic finance obligations (Note 12).

In the current period, the Group has recognised an amount of AED 296.1 million (for the year ended 31 December 2021: AED 220.6 million and for the nine month period ended 30 September 2021: AED 204.9 million) included in the profit or loss under "direct costs" against revenue recognised of AED 388.4 million (for the year ended 31 December 2021: AED 299.3 million and for the nine month period ended 30 September 2021: AED 277.7 million).

For plots of land held for future development and use amounting to AED 691.8 million as at the reporting date (31 December 2021: AED 684.9 million), management is currently evaluating feasibility of the projects and considering alternative viable profitable options as well as various offers from potential buyers.

16. Commitments

At 30 September 2022, the Group had total commitments of AED 435.5 million (31 December 2021: AED 601 million) with respect to project related contracts issued net of invoices received and accruals made at that date.

17. Contingencies

At 30 September 2022, the Group has contingent liabilities in respect of performance bond and guarantees issued by a bank, in the ordinary course of business, amounting to AED 237.2 million (31 December 2021: AED 172.4 million). Also, the Group has contingent liabilities, on behalf of a subsidiary, in respect to guarantees issued by a bank amounting to AED 3.4 million $(2021: AED 3.4$ million). The Group anticipates that no material liabilities will arise from these performance and other guarantees.

The Group is also a party to certain legal cases in respect to various potential claims from customers and, where necessary, makes adequate provisions against any potential claims. Such provisions are reassessed regularly to include significant claims and instances of potential litigations. Based on review of opinion provided by the legal advisors/internal legal team, management is of the opinion that no material cash outflow in respect of these claims is expected to be paid by the Company in these legal cases over and above the existing provision in the books of accounts. The Company has elected not to present the complete disclosures as required by IAS 37 "Provision and Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets" as management is of the view that since the legal claims are sub-judice and are disputed, therefore this information may be prejudicial to their position on these matters.

Certain other contingent liabilities may arise during the normal course of business, which based on the information presently available, either cannot be quantified at this stage or in the opinion of the management is without any merit. However, in the opinion of management, these contingent liabilities are not likely to result in any cash outflows for the Group.

Further, certain properties were under dispute with a UAE based developer ("a related party") against which in the prior year, the Group has received a favourable judgment by the Court of Cassation which upheld a ruling made by the Court of Appeal confirming Dubai Court of First Instance's judgement to terminate all sale and purchase agreements of lands under dispute and had also ordered counterparty to return all amounts paid, to the tune of AED 412 million plus pay a compensation of AED 61 million as well as 9% legal interest accruing from the date of filing the case.

In the prior year, the execution of the court judgement has been handed over to a special committee by virtue of resolution number 12 of 2020 passed by the Government of Dubai. However, on 15 February 2021, the special committee has decided that it has no jurisdiction over the case and has transferred the case to the court of execution. Accordingly, management has submitted an application to the court of execution to proceed with the execution process.

As at 30 September 2022, the court has suspended the auction process of attached properties temporarily on the basis of application filed by the Group and management is in the process of negotiating with the related party to reach a settlement.

The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables, contract assets, due from related parties, bank balances and long term fixed deposit is assumed to approximate their fair values keeping in view the period over which these are expected to be realised. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the Group for similar financial instruments. Other receivables and payables approximate their fair values.

19. Earnings per share

Basic and diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit for the period by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period. There were no instruments or any other items which could cause a dilutive effect on the earnings per share calculation:

20. Impact of COVID-19

The outbreak of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic in early 2020 has either directly or indirectly affected all businesses. Measures to prevent and contain transmission of the virus have impacted businesses throughout the world and lower economic activity resulted in reduced demand for many goods and services. Till date, the impact of COVID-19 on the Group's operational performance has not been significant, and management expects this to remain the same. The management continues to take required actions in order to optimise the Group's operating cash flows and preserve liquidity and have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue as a going concern in foreseeable future.

Due to different variants of COVID-19, there is still uncertainty over the duration and severity of the outbreak on businesses and accordingly, it is not possible to reliably estimate the impact on the financial position and results of the Group for future periods. Given the unpredictable outcome of this pandemic, the Group will continue to monitor and assess the situation and keep adjusting its critical judgements and estimates including the inputs used for expected credit loss, macroeconomic factors, valuation of property and equipment, properties held for development and sale, and investment properties, as necessary, during the course of 2022.

21. Reclassifications
