Despite economic fluctuations… booming profits and real estate sales on the Egyptian stock market
Despite the economic turmoil and fluctuations that burdened all economic sectors, real estate companies managed to record growth rates in business results during the first 9 months of this year, thanks to the interest of a large group of investors in the sector. as one of the safer investment alternatives, to protect against the expected fall in the value of the pound against the dollar.
Investing in real estate is one of the investment alternatives to which a foreign investor resorts, because it is one of the best types of investment and is least affected by this fluctuation, and in addition, it is the largest of these types in preserving the real value of the local currency, which is translated according to the contractual sales numbers of real estate investment companies during the recent period.
Amwal Al-Ghad tracked the results of the 6 largest real estate companies listed on the Egyptian Stock Exchange during the financial period ending September 2022, which showed a positive growth rate in terms of profit and sales.
Youssef Al-Banna, a real estate sector analyst at Al-Naim Investment Bank, said that major real estate companies in the real estate sector achieved strong growth during the nine months of this year, such as Talaat Mustafa, Orascom Development, Sodic, Palm Hills, Nasr City and Emaar Development.
He attributed the strong business results of these companies, despite the deterioration of the inflation rate and the liberalization of the pound to dollar exchange rate, to the recording of strong revenues with good numbers in the handover of units with sales growth, which resulted in them recording high profitability.
He believes the good financial position of these companies helps them accelerate construction in the face of price fluctuations in the local currency, especially since they have a middle-income customer base and above, which helps them easily pass on price increases in costs.
He expected these companies to continue to post strong profit growth rates over the next year, noting that sales could be hit and stagnate due to a decline in purchasing power, despite the safe-haven recourse to real estate by a broad base of investors.
The impact of purchasing power is thought to stem from the preference of a broad base of investors for other investment alternatives such as gold and others.
