First Quarter 2022 Operational Review

Gross Contracted Sales

Gross contracted sales for the first quarter of the year grew 102% YoY, carrying over the strong momentum of Q4 2021, and recorded EGP 3.74 billion, representing 573 units sold across our projects, to set a new record for contracted sales during any first quarter in terms of both number and value of units sold.

West Cairo projects accounted for 36% of our gross contracted sales during the quarter, supported by the successful launch of our newest West Cairo project, The Estates Residences, which was launched in Q1 2022 on the plot that we acquired in Q3 2021. The Estates Residences serves as an extension to The Estates, SODIC's upscale signature community in New Zayed. East Cairo projects accounted for a further 34% while, the north coast, on the back of the successful launch of North Coast project June during the fourth quarter of 2021, accounted for 30% of gross contracted sales during the quarter.

Cancellations

Cancellations of EGP 388 million were recorded during Q1 2022, representing 10% of the quarter's gross contracted sales. This compares to a cancellation rate of 8% recorded during the first quarter of 2021.

Cancellations were negatively affected by cancellations of EGP 299 million on our 500 acres project due to its temporary suspension, with the project accounting for 80% of the cancellations during the quarter. Excluding cancellations on the 500 acres project, cancellations would stand at 2% of gross contracted sales.
