"Thanks to the UAE's visionary leadership that inspires us, e& will continue enabling the knowledge economy with responsibility and ambition. We remain committed to shaping resilient, inclusive, and innovation-led societies across the markets we serve."

Hatem Dowidar, Group Chief Executive Officer, e&, said: "e& delivered strong performance in the first half of 2025, reflecting our agility, innovation, and ability to scale. We preserved the momentum witnessed across our different verticals. Our diverse revenue streams enabled the group to drive financial success and deliver robust operational growth. Revenues in Q2 and H1 increased by 28.1 per cent year-over-year to AED 18.0 billion and by 23.3 per cent to AED 34.9 billion, respectively. Our EBITDA grew by 18.8 per cent to AED 15.4 billion in the first half. These results demonstrate the strength of our transformation strategy and our continued focus on operational excellence and value creation.

"We achieved a series of strategic milestones, including the divestment of Khazna and partial divestment of Airalo during the first half of the year, which enhanced our financial flexibility. In parallel, we introduced the UAE Sovereign Cloud Launchpad, reinforcing our focus on secure, sovereign AI solutions. We also became one of the first companies to earn the 'Tier S' designation under the Dubai AI Seal, a top-level recognition of our leadership in responsible AI development and deployment. Additionally, we advanced our international footprint through the acquisition of Serbia Broadband, while our collaboration with Qualcomm is accelerating 5G evolution and edge AI integration across key industries.

"Our progress was further recognised internationally, with e& named the world's Fastest Growing Brand by Brand Finance. This recognition reflects our bold ambition, customer-centric innovation, and growing global presence.

"As we look ahead, we remain focused on enabling future technologies and delivering lasting impact across the communities we serve."

GUANGZHOU, China, May 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Building on strong overseas sales with 86% YoY growth in Q1, GAC has further accelerated its global expansion. From January to April, the company exported 70,474 vehicles, a 133.9% YoY increase. Guided by the "One GAC 2.0" strategy, GAC is advancing toward its annual target of 250,000 export units, with a stretch goal of 300,000.

As GAC's global strategic flagship, the AION UT continues to excel. In the pure electric hatchback segment, it ranks first in Hong Kong SAR, Colombia, Uruguay, and Singapore; second in Indonesia; and third in Thailand and Mexico. In Australia, the AION UT secured over 600 orders within its first pre-sales month.

Robust Regional Growth and Breakthroughs in Benchmark Markets

In Asia-Pacific, GAC secured 6,287 orders at the Bangkok International Motor Show. Monthly sales in Hong Kong SAR, Malaysia, and Indonesia surged by 503%, 900%, and 338%, respectively, while the AION UT officially launched in Australia. In Europe, the model debuted in Milan and commenced localized production with Magna in Austria, marking a critical step for GAC's "In Europe, for Europe" commitment. In Israel, AION entered the top 10 for EV sales just six months post-launch. Across the Americas, sales in Uruguay and Colombia skyrocketed by 775% and 1,007%. Concurrently, GAC continues expanding its sports marketing footprint by sponsoring top football clubs like Brazil's Flamengo and Bolivia's Oriente Petrolero.

Global Strategy Upgrade and Accelerated Eco-Expansion

At the 139th Canton Fair, GAC secured letters of intent for over 900 vehicles (approx. $10 million export value), demonstrating the strength of its "Technology + Ecosystem" model. The 2026 GAC International Partner Conference gathered 700 dealers from 87 countries, reinforcing the international sales network. At Auto China, GAC unveiled its 2030 Strategic Plan, aiming to enter 120 countries and establish over 2,000 overseas touchpoints. Leveraging a full-powertrain product matrix across its GAC, AION, and HYPTEC brands, the company targets one million annual overseas sales.

Transitioning from product exportation to deep-rooted global ecological integration, GAC is rapidly accelerating its journey toward the one-million-unit international milestone.
