Originally setup as a division of Emirates Bank, Un- Established in 1987 ion Properties was established as a separate company in 1987 and was eventually floated as a public company in 1993. With a ca. 49% stake, the bank continues to act as the single largest shareholder of the property developer. In line with the trend witnessed in the sector, Union Properties has witnessed tremendous growth over the years, with its net asset base increasing from AED1 million in 1987 to AED4.56 billion in 2006. The Current development company has traditionally focused on the development of properties for rent, with income from this portfolio expected to add portfolio accounting for ca. 45% of the cumulative gross profit earned by Union Properties during the AED11 billion to the com- 2002-2006 period. However, the makeup of the revenue stream is set to change dramatically in the pany’s top line between coming years with the company’s current development portfolio expected to add ca. AED11 billion to 2007 and 2010 the top line between 2007 and 2010, accounting for ca. 47% of cumulative revenues and ca. 63% of the gross profit expected to be earned during the said period. The company has also pursued a strategy of forward and backward vertical integration to control its cost structure and to add value to its developments. The acquisition of a majority stake in mechanical, Forward and backward electrical and plumbing contracting company Thermo L.L.C. in 1996 acts as the most prominent exam- integration pursued to ple of the former. Wholly owned by Union Properties now, Thermo has also served as the largest con- control costs and add tributor to the property developer’s top line, constituting an average of ca. 69% of the cumulative value revenues earned by Union Properties in the 2002-2006 period. Notable examples of forward integra- tion, on the other hand, include establishment of an interior design and fitout branch (The Fitout), and a health and fitness services company titled Nautilus. Given that Union Properties’ ongoing projects are expected to generate healthy cash flows for the company over the coming years, we expect the com- pany to continue value addition and diversification through further vertical integration. Strong Emphasis on Villa-focused and DIFC-based Developments The composition of Union Properties’ current development portfolio is dictated by its management’s Management expects the view that the high-rise luxury apartment segment in Dubai is headed for saturation. Moreover, the high-rise luxury apartment management feels that the DIFC district benefits from demand and supply dynamics distinct from segment in Dubai is those characterizing the residential market in the rest of Dubai. This assertion is based on the fact that headed for saturation increasing acceptance of DIFC as a regional base by international players has made it one of the most sought after destinations in the Emirate. Resultantly, the only high-rise luxury apartment offerings by the company are located in the in the financial district. Furthermore, out of the total projected reve- nues of ca. AED11 billion from ongoing developments, ca. 48% are expected to be generated from the sale of a villa-focused development (Green Community MotorCity) and two DIFC-based projects (Index Tower and Limestone House). It would be pertinent to mention here that UPTOWN MotorCity, the only apartments focused develop- ment in the company’s current portfolio, is designed as a community of low-rise apartments. This is expected to differentiate it from the majority of other ongoing developments in Dubai. Branding Our discussion with the management indicates that Union Properties is pursuing a strategy of branding Branding expected to help its developments. For example, the company has launched three projects under the ‘Green Community’ reduce costs and establish brand to date, with all three developments designed as villa-focused communities. Two key benefits positive expectations on expected to be generated from this policy are (1) a reduction in cost in the planning/design phase of part of buyers subsequent projects and (2) establishment of positive expectations on the part of buyer to facilitate the sales process. The Green Community West development serves as a good example in this regard, with the success of the adjacent Green Community aiding the company in achieving a rapid sale of the project, despite its location some distance away from the city center. Moreover, our discussion with the management indicates that feedback from the original Green Community allowed Union Properties to improve on the design of the residential units in Green Community West. The addition of bungalows in the latter development serves as a notable example in this regard. Branding also expected to The branding of its developments is likely to aid Union Properties in expanding its portfolio, both within help in expansion within and outside the UAE.
