Japfa rebounds to $153.3m profit in FY2024, reversing $41.6m loss

 Revenue also rose 4.3% to over $6.2b.

Agri-food company Japfa reported a net profit of $153.3m (USD113.6m) in FY2024, reversing a $41.6m (USD30.8m) loss in FY2023.

The group’s revenue rose 4.3% to over $6.2b (USD4.6b), whilst operating profit surged to $553.2m (USD410m) from $160.3m (USD118.8m) a year earlier.

Japfa attributed its strong performance to stable prices for day-old chicks (DOC) and broilers in Indonesia, supported by a balanced supply-demand environment throughout the year. Additionally, higher swine prices in Vietnam, driven by a supply drop due to African Swine Fever (ASF), and lower feed costs across key markets contributed to the recovery.

Excluding foreign exchange effects, Japfa’s core PATMI rebounded to $167.2m (USD123.9m) in FY2024, reversing a negative $38m (USD28.2m) in the prior year.

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.
