Emaar Development PJSC Review of Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements 30 September 2024

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review of interim condensed consolidated financial statements 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 30 September 2024 interim condensed consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the period ended 30 September 2024 (Unaudited)

1 CORPORATE INFORMATION

The incorporation of Emaar Development PJSC (the "Company") as a Public Joint Stock Company was approved by the Securities and Commodities Authority according to Federal Law No.4 of 2000 on 20 November 2017 and the registration certificate was issued on 21 November 2017. 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 14 November 2024.

2.1 BASIS OF PREPARATION

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group for the period ended 30 September 2024 have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34: Interim Financial Reporting and applicable requirements of the UAE Federal Decree Law No. (32) of 2021.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not contain all information and disclosures required for full financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023. 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, amendments and significant estimates and judgements 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 this interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

Results for the period ended 30 September 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the financial year ending 31 December 2024.

Basis of consolidation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and the entities controlled by the Company as at 30 September 2024. Control is achieved where all the following criteria are met:

• (a) the Group has power over an entity (i.e., existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee);
• (b) the Group has exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity; and

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the period ended 30 September 2024 (Unaudited) (continued)

2.1 BASIS OF PREPARATION (continued)

Basis of consolidation (continued)

(c) the Group has the ability to use its power over the entity to affect the amount of the Company's returns.

When the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:

• The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee;
• Rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and
• The Group's voting rights and potential voting rights.

The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed off during the period are included in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.

Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition or incorporation, being the date on which the Group obtains control (irrespective of percentage of shareholding) and continue to be consolidated until the date when such control ceases. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the Company, using consistent accounting policies. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies in line with the Group's accounting policies. All intra-group balances, transactions, unrealised gains and losses resulting from intra-group transactions and dividends are eliminated in full.

Non-controlling interest (NCI) are measured initially at their proportionate share of the acquiree's identifiable net assets at the date of acquisition. Changes in the Group's interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions.

Share of comprehensive income/loss within a subsidiary is attributed to the non-controlling interest even if that results in a deficit balance.

A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction. If the Group losses control over a subsidiary, it:

• Derecognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary;
• Derecognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interest;
• Derecognises the cumulative translation differences, recorded in equity;
• Recognises the fair value of the consideration received;
• Recognises the fair value of any investment retained;
• Recognises any surplus or deficit in the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income; and
• Reclassifies the Group's share of components previously recognised in other comprehensive income to the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income or retained earnings, as appropriate.

Details of the Company's subsidiaries are as follows:

Subsidiaries	Place of incorporation	Principal activities	Percentage of effective holding
Dubai Hills Estate LLC	UAE	Property development	50%
Emaar Mina Rashid Development Owned By Emaar Development L.L.C	UAE	Buying, selling and development of real estate and leasing and management of self-owned property	100%
Mina Rashid Properties LLC*	UAE	Buying, selling and development of real estate	70%
Emaar Gardens LLC	UAE	Real Estate Development, Investment in Commercial Enterprises & Management	100%

*Also refer note 19.

2.1 BASIS OF PREPARATION (continued)

Basis of consolidation (continued)

Joint ventures

Joint ventures are those entities over whose activities the Group has joint control, established by contractual agreement and requiring unanimous consent for strategic financial and operating decisions whereby the Group has rights to the net assets of the arrangement, rather than rights to its assets and obligations for its liabilities even if the shareholding is 50% or more.

The Group's investment in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, investments in joint ventures are carried in the interim condensed consolidated statement of financial position at cost, plus post-acquisition changes in the Group's share of net assets of the joint venture companies, less any impairment in value.

The interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income reflects the Group's share of results of its joint ventures. Unrealised profits and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and its joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the joint ventures. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.

2.2 KEY ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

The preparation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the reporting date. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

Estimates and their underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised.

The key judgments and estimates and assumptions that have a significant impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group are discussed below:

Judgments

Timing of satisfaction of performance obligations

The Group is required to assess each of its contracts with customers to determine whether performance obligations are satisfied over time or at a point in time in order to determine the appropriate method of recognising revenue. The Group has assessed that based on the sale and purchase agreements entered into with customers and the provisions of relevant laws and regulations, where contracts are entered into, to provide real estate assets to customers, the Group does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Group and usually has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. In these circumstances, the Group recognises revenue over time. Where this is not the case, revenue is recognised at a point in time.

Determination of transaction prices

The Group is required to determine the transaction price in respect of each of its contracts with customers. In making such judgment, the Group assess the impact of any variable consideration in the contract, due to discounts or penalties, the existence of any significant financing component in the contract and any non-cash consideration in the contract. In determining the impact of variable consideration, the Group uses the "most-likely amount" method in IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers whereby the transaction price is determined by reference to the single most likely amount in a range of possible consideration amounts.

Transfer of control in contracts with customers

In cases where the Group determines that performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time, revenue is recognised when control over the asset, that is the subject of the contract, is transferred to the customer. In the case of contracts to sell real estate assets, this is generally when the consideration for the unit has been substantially received and there are no impediments in the handing over of the unit to the customer. The title will be transferred to the customer only upon 100% collection, resulting in a low risk of default and loss thereof.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the period ended 30 September 2024 (Unaudited) (continued)

2.2 KEY ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS (continued)

Estimations and assumptions

Consolidation of a subsidiary

The Group has evaluated all the investee entities including special purpose entities to determine whether it controls the investee as per the criteria laid out by IFRS 10: Consolidated Financial Statements. The Group has evaluated, amongst other things, its ownership interest, the contractual arrangements in place and its ability and the extent of its involvement with the relevant activities of the investee entities to determine whether it controls the investee.

Split of real estate components

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group include certain assets, liabilities, income, expenses and cash flows which are allocated to the Group based on management assumptions and estimates. This mainly includes development properties, trade and other payables, retention payable, advance from customers and selling, general and administrative expenses. These are allocated based on evaluation by project consultant and management's best estimate of use of corporate resources by the Group.

Recognition of forfeiture income from sales cancellation

Upon termination or cancellation of contracts with customers, amounts received from customers become refundable subject to forfeiture clauses contained in the original sale contract documents and as per local real estate regulations. Forfeited amounts are carried as liability on the interim condensed consolidated statement of financial position upon cancellation/ termination of the contract. Amounts forfeited on cancelled/terminated property units (net of customer refunds, where applicable) are subsequently recognised in the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income based on management's judgment on whether the Group expects any future / continuing association with the erstwhile customer whose amounts are being forfeited.

Measurement of progress when revenue is recognised over time

The Group has elected to apply the input method to measure the progress of performance obligations where revenue is recognised over time. The Group considers that the use of the input method, which requires revenue recognition on the basis of the Group's efforts to the satisfaction of the performance obligation, provides the best reference of revenue actually earned. In applying the input method, the Group estimates the cost to complete the projects in order to determine the amount of revenue to be recognised.

Cost to complete the projects and Project cost accruals

The Group estimates the cost to complete of the projects and project cost accruals in order to determine the cost attributable to revenue being recognised. These estimates include the value attributable to work done till date, cost of providing infrastructure, potential claims by contractors as evaluated by the project consultant and the cost of meeting other contractual obligations to the customers.

During the current period, management has reassessed the adequacy of project accruals of certain projects and accordingly has written back AED 101,054 thousands (30 September 2023: AED 1,056,602 thousands) for projects which are fully completed and wherein final settlement is either obtained or management estimates no further contractor claims. Also refer note 4

Impairment of non-financial assets

The Group assesses whether there are any indicators of impairment for all non-financial assets at each reporting date. The non-financial assets are tested for impairment when there are indicators that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When value in use calculations are undertaken, management estimates the expected future cash flows from the asset or cash-generating a unit and chooses a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows.

Development properties are stated at the lower of cost and estimated net realisable value. The cost of work-in-progress comprises construction costs and other related direct costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less cost of completion and selling expenses.

As at 31 December 2023, the external valuer report on the valuation of the Group's development properties has drawn attention to the fact that a combination of global inflationary pressures, higher interest rates and recent geopolitical events have heightened the potential for greater volatility in property markets over the short-to-medium term, requiring management to closely monitor the valuation and track how market participants respond to current market volatility.

Management has critically assessed asset valuations and, in the current environment, are satisfied with the assumptions adopted and valuations reported. Management will continue to closely monitor the impact of this evolving situation to assess its impact to the Group, if any.

Fair value measurement of financial instruments

When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements cannot be measured based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using valuation techniques including the discounted cash flow (DCF) model. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. Judgements include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility.

2.3 CHANGES IN THE ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND DISCLOSURES

A number of new standards are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 January 2024 and earlier application is permitted, however, the Group has not early adopted the new or amended standards in preparing these interim condensed consolidated financial statements. The following new or amended standards that are adopted in annual periods beginning on 1 January 2024:

(a)	New standards, interpretations and amendments adopted by the Group	Effective date
	Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (Amendments to IFRS 16)	1 January 2024

	Classification of Liabilities as Current and Non-current (Amendments to IAS 1)	1 January 2024
	Supplier Finance Arrangements – Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7	1 January 2024

These standards / improvements have no material impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group.

(b) Standards, amendments and interpretations in issue but not effective

The following amended standards and interpretations are not expected to have a significant impact on the Group's interim condensed consolidated financial statements:

*effective upon adoption by applicable regulatory authority

**IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements - The IASB issued IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements in April 2024. IFRS 18 aims to improve how companies communicate in their financial statements, with a focus on information about financial performance in the statement of profit or loss. IFRS 18 is accompanied by limited amendments to the requirements in IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows. IFRS 18 is effective from 1 January 2027. IFRS 18 replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements and will affect the presentation and disclosure of financial performance in the Group's interim condensed consolidated financial statements when adopted.

Other than IFRS 18, the Group does not expect the adoption of the above new standards, amendments and interpretations to have a material impact on the future interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the period ended 30 September 2024 (Unaudited) (continued)

2.4 SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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 for the year ended 31 December 2023, except for the new standards and amendments adopted during the current period as explained in note 2.3.

Revenue recognition

Revenue from contracts with customers

The Group recognises revenue from contracts with customers based on a five-step model as set out in IFRS 15:

• Step 1. Identify the contract(s) with a customer: A contract is defined as an agreement between two or more parties that creates enforceable rights and obligations and sets out the criteria for every contract that must be met.
• Step 2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract: A performance obligation is a promise in a contract with a customer to transfer a good or service to the customer.
• Step 3. Determine the transaction price: The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties.
• Step 4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract: For a contract that has more than one performance obligation, the Group will allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in an amount that depicts the amount of consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for satisfying each performance obligation.
• Step 5. Recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

The Group satisfies a performance obligation and recognises revenue over time, if one of the following criteria is met:

• 1. The customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Group's performance as the Group performs; or
• 1. The Group's performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced; or
• 1. The Group's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Group and the entity has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.

For performance obligations where one of the above conditions are not met, revenue is recognised at the point in time at which the performance obligation is satisfied.

When the Group satisfies a performance obligation by delivering the promised goods or services, it creates a contract asset based on the amount of consideration earned by the performance. Where the amount of consideration received from a customer exceeds the amount of revenue recognised, this gives rise to a contract liability.

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, taking into account contractually defined terms of payment and excluding taxes and duty. The Group assesses its revenue arrangements against specific criteria to determine if it is acting as principal or agent. The Group has concluded that it is acting as a principal in all of its revenue arrangements. Revenue is recognised in the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue and costs, if applicable, can be measured reliably.

Revenue from sale of land

The performance obligation with regards to sale of land is satisfied at a point in time when customer has access to the plot. Upon recognition of revenue against a certain plot, the infrastructure cost allocated to the plot of land is released to the statement of comprehensive income, as cost of revenue.

Development services

Revenue from rendering of development management services is recognised when the outcome of the transaction can be estimated reliably, by reference to the stage of completion of the development obligation at the reporting date. Where the outcome cannot be measured reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent that the expenses incurred are eligible to be recovered.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the period ended 30 September 2024 (Unaudited) (continued)

2.4 SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Interest income

Interest income is recognised as the interest accrues using the effective interest method, under which the rate used exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.

Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in the interim condensed consolidated income statement in the period in which they are incurred.

Income tax

Taxation is provided in accordance with the relevant fiscal regulations of the country in which the Group operates. Current tax is the expected tax payable/receivable on the taxable income/loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted as at the reporting date, and any adjustments to the tax receivable/payable in respect of prior years. Income tax relating to items recognised directly in other comprehensive income or equity is recognised directly in other comprehensive income or equity and not in the consolidated income statement.

Deferred income tax is provided, using the liability method, on all temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purpose at the reporting date.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on laws that have been enacted as at the reporting date.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences and carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:

• when the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss;
• in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax assets to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss. Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity.

The Group offsets deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities if and only if it has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets and current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.

Income tax (continued)

UAE Federal Decree-Law No (47) of 2022 on the Taxation of Corporations and Businesses:

On 9 December 2022, the UAE Ministry of Finance released the Federal Decree-Law No. 47 of 2022 on the Taxation of Corporations and Businesses ('the CT Law') to enact a Federal corporate tax ('CT') regime in the UAE. The CT Law is effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 June 2023. Decision No. 116 of 2022 specifies the threshold of income (as AED 375,000) over which a corporate tax of 9% would apply and accordingly, the CT Law is now considered to be substantively enacted. For the Group, current taxes is accounted for as appropriate in the financial statements for the period beginning 1 January 2024. In accordance with IAS 12 Income Taxes, the related current tax accounting impact has been considered for the interim financial period ended 30 September 2024.

The Group has assessed the deferred tax implications for the nine months ended 30 September 2024 and, after considering its interpretations of applicable tax law, official pronouncements, cabinet decisions and ministerial decisions (especially with regard to transition rules), it has been concluded that deferred tax implications are not expected to be material.

The Group shall continue to monitor critical Cabinet Decisions to determine the impact on the Group, from deferred tax perspective.

Global Minimum Top-up Tax

To address concerns about uneven profit distribution and tax contributions of large multinational corporations, various agreements have been reached at the global level, including an agreement by over 135 jurisdictions to introduce a global minimum tax rate of 15%. In December 2021, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) released a draft legislative framework, followed by detailed guidance released in March 2022, that is expected to be used by individual jurisdictions that signed the agreement to amend their local tax laws.

As of 30 September 2024, the jurisdiction in which the Group operates has not enacted or substantively enacted the tax legislation related to the top-up tax. Management is closely monitoring the progress of the legislative process and as at 30 September 2024, the Group did not have sufficient information to determine the potential quantitative impact. In accordance with amendments to IAS 12 Income taxes, the Group has applied mandatory exception to recognizing and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from Pillar Two income taxes.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost (which includes capitalised borrowing costs) less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives as follows:

Sales centers (included in land and buildings)	1 - 10 years
Computers and office equipment	2 - 5 years
Motor vehicles	3 - 5 years
Furniture and fixtures	2 - 5 years

No depreciation is charged on land and capital work-in-progress. The useful lives, depreciation method and residual values are reviewed periodically to ensure that the method and period of depreciation are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from these assets.

Expenditure incurred to replace a component of an item of property, plant and equipment that is accounted for separately is capitalised and the carrying amount of the component that is replaced is written off. Other subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases future economic benefits of the related item of property, plant and equipment. All other expenditure is recognised in the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income as the expense is incurred.

Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment may not be recoverable. Whenever the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment exceeds their recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell of property, plant and equipment and the value in use. The fair value less costs to sell is the amount obtainable from the sale of property, plant and equipment in an arm's length transaction while value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of property, plant and equipment and from its disposal at the end of its useful life.

Reversal of impairment losses other than goodwill impairment recognised in the prior years are recorded when there is an indication that the impairment losses recognised for the property, plant and equipment no longer exist or have reduced.

2.4 SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Development properties

Properties acquired, constructed or in the course of construction for sale in the ordinary course of business are classified as development properties and are stated at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Cost includes:

• Freehold rights for land;
• Amounts paid to contractors and project cost accrual for construction; and
• Borrowing cost, planning and design costs, costs of site preparation, professional fees for legal services, property transfer taxes, construction overheads and other directly attributable costs.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of the business, based on market prices at the reporting date and discounted for the time value of money if material, less costs to completion and the estimated costs of sale.

The cost of development properties recognised in the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income on sale is determined with reference to the specific costs incurred on the property sold and an allocation of any non-specific costs based on the relative size of the property sold.

Common infrastructure cost is allocated to various projects and forms part of the estimated cost to complete a project in order to determine the cost attributable to revenue being recognised. The development span of some of the development properties is estimated to be over 10 years.

The management reviews the carrying values of the development properties on an annual basis.

Investment in joint ventures

The interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income reflects the Group's share of the results of operations of its joint ventures. Where there has been a change recognised directly in the other comprehensive income, the Group recognises its share of any changes, when applicable, in the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income or the interim condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity. Unrealised gains and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and its joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the interest in the joint venture.

The financial statement of joint ventures are prepared for the same reporting period as the Group. When necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies in line with those of the Group.

After application of the equity method, the Group determines whether it is necessary to recognise an impairment loss on its investment in its joint ventures. At each reporting date, the Group determines whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in the joint venture is impaired. If this is the case, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the joint venture, and its carrying value and recognises the impairment losses in the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Upon loss of significant influence over the joint venture, the Group measures and recognises any retained investment at its fair value. Any differences between the carrying amount of the joint venture upon loss of significant influence and the fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in the interim condensed consolidated income statement. When the remaining investment in joint venture constitutes significant influence, it is accounted for as an investment in associate.

2.4 SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Financial assets

All financial assets are recognised and derecognised on trade date when the purchase or sale of a financial asset is made under a contract whose terms require delivery of the financial asset within the timeframe established by the market concerned. Financial assets are initially measured at cost, plus transaction costs, except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through other comprehensive income or profit or loss, which are initially measured at fair value. Trade receivables are initially recognised when they are originated. Trade and unbilled receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Group has applied the practical expedient are measured at the transaction price determined under IFRS 15. All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair value.

The fair value of financial instruments that are actively traded in organised financial markets is determined by reference to quoted market bid prices for assets and offer prices for liabilities, at the close of business on the reporting date. If quoted market prices are not available, reference can also be made to broker or dealer price quotations.

The fair value of floating rate and overnight deposits with credit institutions is their carrying value. The carrying value is the cost of the deposit and accrued interest. The fair value of fixed interest-bearing deposits is estimated using discounted cash flow techniques. Expected cash flows are discounted at current market rates for similar instruments at the reporting date.

Classification of financial assets

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset's contractual cash flow characteristics and the Group's business model for managing them. In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortised cost or fair value through OCI, it needs to give rise to cash flows that are 'solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)' on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level.

For the purposes of classifying financial assets, an instrument is an 'equity instrument' if it is a non-derivative and meets the definition of 'equity' for the issuer (under IAS 32: Financial Instruments: Presentation) except for certain nonderivative puttable instruments presented as equity by the issuer. All other non-derivative financial assets are 'debt instruments'.

Cash and cash equivalents

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in hand, bank balances and shortterm deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.

Trade and unbilled receivables

Trade receivables are stated at original invoice amount (unless there is a significant financing component) less expected credit losses. When a trade receivable is uncollectible, it is written off against provision for doubtful debts. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Services rendered but not billed at the reporting date are accrued as per the terms of the agreements as unbilled receivables.

Derecognition of financial assets

A financial asset (or, when applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognised when:

• The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; or
• The Group retains the right to receive cash flows from the asset, but has assumed an obligation to pay them in full without material delay to a third party under a 'pass-through' arrangement, and
• The Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset and either:
• has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or
• has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset but has transferred control of the asset.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the period ended 30 September 2024 (Unaudited) (continued)

2.4 SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Financial assets (continued)

Derecognition of financial assets (continued)

When the Group has transferred its right to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognised to the extent of the Group's continuing involvement in the asset. Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Group could be required to repay.

Impairment of financial assets

The Group recognises an allowance for expected credit losses ("ECL") for all debt instruments and contract assets not held at fair value through profit or loss. ECLs are based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Group expects to receive. The shortfall is then discounted at an approximation to the asset's original effective interest rate.

ECLs are recognised in two stages. For credit exposures for which there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, ECLs are provided for credit losses that result from default events that are possible within the next 12-months (a 12-month ECL). For those credit exposures for which there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, a loss allowance is required for credit losses expected over the remaining life of the exposure, irrespective of the timing of the default (a lifetime ECL).

When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECLs, the Group considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the Group's historical experience and informed credit assessment, that includes forward-looking information.

For trade and unbilled receivables and other receivables, the Group applies a simplified approach in calculating ECLs based on lifetime expected credit losses. The Group has established a provision matrix that is based on the Group's historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment. The expected credit losses are recognised in the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

The Group considers a financial asset to be in default when internal or external information indicates that the Group is unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full before taking into account any credit enhancements held by the Group. A financial asset is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flows.

At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether financial assets carried at amortised cost and debt securities at FVOCI are credit impaired. A financial asset is 'credit-impaired' when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred.

Evidence that a financial asset is credit impaired includes the following observable data:

• –– significant financial difficulty of the debtor;
• –– a breach of contract such as a default or being more than 90 days past due;
• –– the restructuring of a loan or advance by the Group on terms that the Group would not consider otherwise;
• –– it is probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation; or
• –– the disappearance of an active market for a security because of financial difficulties.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the period ended 30 September 2024 (Unaudited) (continued)

2.4 SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Financial assets (continued)

Impairment of non-financial assets

The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that a non-financial asset (other than inventories, contract assets and deferred tax assets) may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group estimates the asset's recoverable amount. An asset's recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's or cash-generating unit's (CGU) fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. In determining fair value less costs to sell, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded entities or other available fair value indicators.

Impairment losses are recognised in the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset. They are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU, and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU on a pro rata basis.

For assets excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the Group estimates the asset's or cash-generating unit's recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset's recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by the Group

Debt and equity instruments are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity instruments in accordance with the substance of the contractual agreements. Financial liabilities within the scope of IFRS 9 are classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, or as derivative instrument as appropriate. The Group determines the classification of its financial liabilities at the initial recognition.

Trade and other payables

Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether billed by the supplier or not.

Loans and borrowings

Term loans are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received less directly attributable transaction costs.

After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Gains and losses are recognised in the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the amortisation process.

Other financial liabilities

Other financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognised on an effective yield basis.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the period ended 30 September 2024 (Unaudited) (continued)

2.4 SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by the Group (continued)

Derecognition of financial liabilities

The Group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group's obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire. The Group also derecognises a financial liability when its terms are modified, and the cash flows of the modified liability are substantially different, in which case a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognised at fair value. On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount extinguished and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognised in interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset, and the net amount is reported in the interim condensed consolidated statement of financial position if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

End-of-service benefits

The Group provides end-of-service benefits to its employees. The entitlement to these benefits is usually based upon the employees' final salary and length of service, subject to the completion of a minimum service period. The expected costs of these benefits are accrued over the period of employment.

With respect to its eligible UAE and GCC national employees, the Group makes contributions to a pension fund established by the UAE General Pension and Social Security Authority calculated as a percentage of the employees' salaries. The Group's obligations are limited to these contributions, which are expensed when due.

Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount can be reliably estimated. When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income net of any reimbursement.

Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period, using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation.

Provisions are reviewed at each statement of financial position date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed.

Fair value measurement

The Group measures financial instruments, such as investment in securities and hedges, at fair value at each reporting date.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either in the principal market for the asset or liability or the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant's ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the period ended 30 September 2024 (Unaudited) (continued)

2.4 SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by the Group (continued)

The fair value of interest-bearing items is estimated based on discounted cash flows using interest rates for items with similar terms and risk characteristics.

Fair value of interest rate swap contract is determined by reference to market value for similar instruments.

The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

• Level 1 Fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices in an active market (that are unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities.
• Level 2 Fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
• Level 3 Fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis, the Group determines whether transfers have occurred between Levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation at the end of each reporting period.

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Group has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.

3 SEGMENT INFORMATION
