Wilmar International’s net profit up 5.2% in H1 2024

The increase was due to better performances in the Feed & Industrial Products and Food Products segments.

Wilmar International posted a net profit of $763.7m (US$579.6m), up 5.2% year-on-year (YoY) to $725.9 (US$550.9m) in H1 2024 amidst better performances in the Feed & Industrial Products and Food Products segments, partially offset by lower contributions from Joint Ventures & Associates and sugar milling operations. 

Profit from the Feed & Industrial Products segment rose 34% YoY to $703.6m (US$534.0m), whilst the Food Products segment saw a 77% YoY increase to $192.7m (US$146.3m).

Meanwhile, the Plantation & Sugar Milling segment recorded a 14% YoY decline to $71m (US$53.9m) in profit.

In addition, shares from Joint Ventures & Associates declined 58% YoY to $109.6m (US$83.2m) due to lower contributions from the Group’s investments in Europe, China, and Africa. 

Overall revenue declined 4.9% YoY to $40.7b (US$30.9b) from $42.8b (US$32.54b) a year ago as revenue across all core segments dropped due to rising commodity prices.

Earnings per share stood at $0.012 (US$0.093).

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.
