On May 14, 2025, GFH Financial Group B.S.C. announced the successful completion of a live webcast session regarding their first-quarter financial results for 2025. This session, initially disclosed in a notification dated May 8, 2025, was held online at 1:00 p.m. Bahrain time. The presentation and script from the webcast are available for reference.

The document outlines that Amlak Finance PJSC has prepared a report in compliance with the SCA Board of Directors' Decision No. (32/R.M.) of 2019, which requires listed companies with accumulated losses of 20% or more of their paid-up capital to disclose relevant information. As of Q1 2025, Amlak's accumulated losses amount to AED 513 million, representing 34% of its paid-up capital. These losses primarily stem from the fair value loss of investment properties, which have been reduced from AED 2.3 billion in 2020 to AED 258 million in 2023. In 2024 and early 2025, losses from foreign currency translation reserves were reclassified to accumulated losses due to repatriation of funds from its Egyptian subsidiary to the UAE. Amlak is negotiating with financiers to exit the Common Terms Agreement to enhance operational flexibility and pursue growth opportunities. A repayment agreement has been reached, aiming to settle outstanding obligations by 2026 through asset sales. Shareholders approved this strategy in March and April 2025, allowing the sale of certain investment properties and investments outside the UAE. These actions are intended to address accumulated losses and strengthen Amlak's financial position.

Amlak Finance announced its financial results for Q1 2025, reporting a net profit after income tax of AED 28 million, a 4% increase from the previous year. The company's total assets are AED 2.42 billion, and it completed debt restructuring in March 2025. Total revenue increased by 15% to AED 76 million, while revenue from financing and investing activities decreased by 35% to AED 22 million. Operating costs decreased by 18% to AED 18 million, and the cost of distribution to financiers was reduced to AED 14 million. Amlak repaid AED 35 million to financiers and has settled 91% of its Islamic deposit liabilities. The company secured financier approval for a restated Common Terms Agreement and shareholder approval for the sale of plots in Ras Al Khor.
