Altdorf, 30 January 2023 – Orascom Development Holding (ODH) announces its preliminary real estate and hotels KPIs’ for FY 2022. Full results will be announced on March 30, 2023.

Real Estate FY 2022 KPIs:

New sales for Q4 2022 reached CHF 243.4 million, a 10.8% increase from CHF 219.6 million in Q4 2021. That brings our FY 2022 net real estate sales value to CHF 714.2 million, 7.5% increase over FY 2021.

Omar El Hamamsy, Group CEO of Orascom Development, commented: “Despite various macroeconomic challenges in our region, including the Egyptian currency devaluation, our operations continued to progress. We had a robust quarter with strong demand, especially in O West in Egypt, Hawana Salalah in Oman and Luštica Bay in Montenegro. We increased our average selling prices per sqm across all destinations. Our strong performance in 2022 is a testament to our team’s dedication, tailored and high-quality products and strong customer relationships."
