Aldar Properties PJSC (ALDAR:UH), Abu Dhabi’s largest property developer, was downgraded by S&P to non-investment grade (junk). Their rating was lowered by six notches, from A- to BB-, and it has a negative long term outlook. S&P cited that the reason for their downgrade was the declining profits and real estate prices.
Aldar was severely affected by the global financial crises and had a difficult couple of quarters as it reported a third consecutive quarterly loss of AED475.3 million while the consensus estimates were AED210 million.

The share price fell 74% from this year’s high of 5.2 to 2.39. Their sukuk are trading 7.5% lower from their highs in January; however, their yields, currently at 9.94% have surged by 141%.
