Dubai's DAMAC loses $84.5mln in Q2, warns of difficult years ahead | ZAWYA MENA Edition:
Dubai developer DAMAC Properties on Thursday warned it saw a difficult market for up to the next two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as it reported a second-quarter loss of 280 million dirhams ($76.2 million).
While revenue increased 18% to 1.1 billion dirhams, the owner of the only Trump-branded golf club in the Middle East swung to a quarterly loss from a 50.5 million dirham profit in the same period a year ago.
It was the company's third consecutive quarterly loss, according to Refinitiv data.
Chairman Hussies Sajwani said the pandemic has negatively impacted sales and business activity and that the company saw difficult conditions over the next 18-24 months, though it was optimistic next year's Dubai EXPO would generate some demand.
