11. Significant and subsequent events
During the interim period ended March 31, 2023, and according to the Parent Company’s Board of Directors meeting
held on March 22, 2023, a preliminary agreement was reached between Al Mazaya Holding Company - K.S.C.P.
(Parent Company) and First Dubai Real Estate Development Company - K.S.C.P. (Subsidiary) regarding their intention
to study a Merger by Amalgamation, where Al Mazaya Holding Company - K.S.C.P. will be the “Merging” company and
First Dubai Real Estate Development Company - K.S.C.P. will be the “Merged” company. Both companies are currently
in process of completing the related studies in that regard..
During the year ended December 31, 2020, two subsidiaries of the group had filed lawsuits before the courts of the
Emirate of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates against some investors regarding the development of real estate projects
in the Emirate of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Court of Cassation
upheld the judgment issued by the Court of Appeal, which had previously upheld the judgment of the Court of First
Instance issued in favor of the two subsidiaries of the group about their entitlement to a total amount of AED 19,780,852,
in addition to the legal interest of 9% from the date of the judicial claim till full payment, whereby the entitlement of those
subsidiaries including the legal interest until December 31, 2021 had amounted to AED 22,401,016 (equivalent to KD
1,844,305) and hence, the management of those subsidiaries had decided to reverse the provisions recorded in their
books against their full entitled amount according to the Court’s verdict including the legal interest up till December 31,
2021 which is reported as provisions no longer required in the consolidated statement of profit or loss for the year
ended December 31, 2021. The subsidiaries of the group initiated legal execution procedures against those investors
for the fulfillment of that verdict along with its legal interest, which resulted in the collection of almost 78% from the total
amount due to the two subsidiaries till March 31, 2023, whereas the remaining amount is currently under collection by
the Group’s two subsidiaries.
Subsequent to the date of the consolidated interim financial information, as a result of those lawsuits, the defendants
filed a counter-lawsuit against the Parent Company, the two subsidiaries and others demanding for the payment of
AED 261,026,454 (equivalent to KD 21,788,009) in addition to the legal interest of 5% from the date of the judicial claim
till full payment, in addition to demanding payment of AED 50,000,000 (equivalent to KD 4,173,525) as compensation
for lost profits. Subsequently, the court demanded from the plaintiffs in those new legal cases to reregister them at the
concerned judicial department and pay the required additional fees, and hence, it was considered as a closed case till
being reregistered. Hence, there was no need to consider any provisions against that legal case as of the consolidated
interim financial information date.
In addition, subsequent to the date of the consolidated interim financial information, a subsidiary to the Group had
executed a swap deal for its land plots in the United Arab Emirates in exchange for new land plots and rights to purchase
other land plots with the master developer of those plots, where the book value of the disposed plots as of March 31,
2023 has amounted to KD 16,632,732 and the fair value of the new plots and the rights to purchase other plots at the
time of the swap execution has amounted to KD 16,857,545. This transaction will be recognized in the interim
consolidated financial information of the Group in the subsequent interim financial period ending on June 30, 2023.
