REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF EMAAR DEVELOPMENT PJSC

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Emaar Development PJSC (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the "Group") which comprise the interim condensed consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2025, and the related interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the three-month and six month periods then ended, and the interim condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and interim condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six-month period then ended, and other explanatory notes. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34"). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these interim condensed consolidated financial statements based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with 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.

Other matter

The consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2024 were audited by another auditor who expressed an unmodified opinion on those consolidated financial statements on 14 February 2025.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group for the six-month period ended 30 June 2024 were reviewed by another auditor who expressed an unmodified conclusion on those interim condensed consolidated financial statements on 12 August 2024.

Conclusion

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

The Company's registered office is at P.O. Box 9440, Dubai, United Arab Emirates ("UAE").

The Company is a subsidiary of Emaar Properties PJSC (the "Parent Company" or "Parent" or "Ultimate Parent"), a company incorporated in the UAE and listed on the Dubai Financial Market. The Company is also listed on the Dubai Financial Market. The Company and its subsidiaries constitute the Group (the "Group").

The principal activities of the Group are property development and development management services in the UAE.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue on 6 August 2025.

2.1 BASIS OF PREPARATION

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group for the period ended 30 June 2025 have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34: Interim Financial Reporting and UAE Federal Decree Law No. (32) of 2021. The Group has prepared the interim condensed consolidated financial statements on the basis that it will continue to operate as a going concern.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not contain all information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024. The same accounting policies, methods of computation, significant accounting judgments and estimates and assumptions are followed in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements as compared with the most recent annual consolidated financial statements, except for the new standards, interpretations and amendments adopted during the current period as explained below in notes 2.2 and 2.3.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in United Arab Emirates Dirhams (AED), which is the Group's functional and presentation currency, and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand except where otherwise indicated.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets.

The preparation of interim condensed consolidated financial statements on the basis described above requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which for the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Certain comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform to the presentation used in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

2.2 SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION

The accounting policies, estimates, judgements and the methods of computation adopted in the preparation of this interim condensed consolidated financial statements are the same as those applied in the preparation of preceding annual published consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2024.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the period ended 30 June 2025 (Unaudited) (continued)

2.2 SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION (continued)

Global Minimum Top-up Tax

The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has issued the Global Anti-Base Erosion (GloBE) Model Rules, which mandate a minimum tax rate of 15% per jurisdiction (Pillar Two). Various countries have either enacted or are in the process of enacting tax legislation to fully or partially comply with Pillar Two. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) substantively enacted Cabinet Decision No. 142 of 2024, which introduces a Domestic Minimum Top-up Tax (DMTT) applicable to certain multinational enterprises. The Group's Parent Company, domiciled in the UAE, falls within the scope of these rules effective 1 January 2025.

2.3 CHANGES IN THE ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND DISCLOSURES

New standards, interpretations and amendments adopted by the Group

The Group has not early adopted any standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective. One amendment applies for the first time in 2025 but does not have an impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group.

Lack of exchangeability - Amendments to IAS 21

The amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates specify how an entity should assess whether a currency is exchangeable and how it should determine a spot exchange rate when exchangeability is lacking. The amendments also require disclosure of information that enables users of its interim condensed consolidated financial statements to understand how the currency not being exchangeable into the other currency affects, or is expected to affect, the entity's interim condensed consolidated financial performance, interim condensed consolidated financial position and interim condensed consolidated cash flows.

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2025. When applying the amendments, an entity cannot restate comparative information.

The amendments did not have a material impact on the Group's interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

3 SEGMENT INFORMATION

Management monitors the operating results of the business as a single unit for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment.

Business segments

Revenue, operating results, assets and liabilities presented in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements relates to the real estate development business of the Group.

Geographic segment
