Wilmar's core net profit drops 35.7% YoY in Q3 amidst China weakness

It recorded a core net profit of US$208.1m.

Wilmar International ended the third quarter with a 35.7% YoY lower core net profit of US$208.1m.

The company attributed the decline to weaker contributions from its China operations and Sugar division.

On the flip side, its tropical oils, oleochemicals, shipping and crushing "did better than expected" in Q3.

The company expects refining margins for tropical oils to improve and crushing margins for soybeans to remain positive until year-end.

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.
