DFI Retail swings back to profit in 2025 on divestment gains

The company reversed its $313m loss in 2024.

DFI Retail Group Holdings Limited reported a profit attributable to shareholders of $300.6m (US$235m) for the year ended 31 December 2025, reversing a $313.3m (US$245m) loss in 2024.

Earnings per share (EPS) also landed in the positive, rising from a loss of $0.23 (US$0.18) in 2024 to $0.22 (US$0.17) in 2025.

The improvement came from stronger contributions in Health & Beauty and convenience store operations, along with efficiency gains and portfolio simplification through divestments of non-core businesses.

Digital sales penetration more than doubled to around 6.4%, whilst adding 114 net new stores in 2025 to support revenue growth across key markets, according to the group.

DFI Retail declared a final dividend of $0.18 (US$0.14) per share, according to their figures.

The company noted that operational improvements and focused investments are expected to support continued growth in profit and EPS in the coming years.

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.
