Japfa Comfeed warns of loss in Q1

On back of weak poultry market.

Japfa today announced that its subsidiary, Japfa Comfeed, is expected to book a net loss in the first quarter.

This is due to the continuing weakness in the poultry market and in the purchasing power of low-income consumers.

The firm will also book a translation loss from PT Japfa Comfeed’s US dollar loans as a result of the 5% drop in the Rupiah to USD exchange rate as at 31 March 2015.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
