Golden Agri-Resources posts $489m net profit in 2024

The group's revenue also grew 12%.

Golden Agri-Resources Ltd (GAR) reported a net profit of $489m ($365m) for 2024, driven by higher crude palm oil (CPO) prices and strong sales.

The group's revenue also grew 12% to $14.6b ($10.9b) on record sales of 11.9 million tonnes.

EBITDA increased 12% to $1.5b ($1.1b), maintaining a 10% margin. Chairman and CEO Franky O. Widjaja credited the company’s vertically integrated operations for driving growth, alongside investments in technology and sustainability.

GAR expects palm oil prices to remain strong in early 2025, with demand rising during festive periods across Asia. The company also anticipates a recovery in Indonesian output as El Niño’s effects subside.

The board has proposed a final dividend of $0.00804 per share, totalling $100m ($75m), a 31% increase from the previous year. Pending shareholder approval, the dividend will be distributed on 20 May 2025.

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.
