Wilmar International H1 net profit grows 2.3% to $779.4m

Feed & Industrial Products' pre-tax profit jumps 55%.

Wilmar International Limited recorded a net profit of $779.4m (US$608.9m) for the six months ended 30 June 2026 (H1), up 2.3% from $761.5m (US$594.9m) a year earlier.

Revenue rose 17.2% to $49.36b (US$38.56b), mainly due to the consolidation of AWL Agri Business Limited’s results since December 2025 and higher selling prices across most products.

Profit before tax grew 12.8% to $1.36b (US$1.06b), whilst EBITDA rose 10.6% to $2.84b (US$2.22b).

The group attributed the improvement to stronger performances in its Feed & Industrial Products and Food Products segments.

Food Products posted a 56% increase in pre-tax profit to $389.9m (US$304.6m) from $250.5m (US$195.7m), whilst segment volume climbed 19% to 19.4 million metric tonnes.

Excluding the impact of AWL’s consolidation in H1, overall volume and revenue would have grown by 2% to 16.6 million MT and by 8% to $19.89b (US$15.54b), respectively, the group said.

The Feed & Industrial Products segment saw pre-tax profit rise 55% to $756.5m (US$591m) from $488.4m (US$381.6m). Oilseeds and grains sales volume grew 6% to 14.9 million metric tonnes.

In contrast, Plantation & Sugar Milling pre-tax profit fell 32% to $176.3m (US$137.7m) from $258.6m (US$202m), mainly due to weaker sugar prices and a $31.6m (US$24.7m) impairment loss on sugar milling assets in India.

Wilmar approved an interim tax-exempt dividend of $0.05 per share, up from $0.04 a year earlier. The dividend will be paid on 2 September.

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.
