First Resources’ net profit falls 44.1% YoY to $71.5m in 1H23

The company’s sales likewise fell during the period.

Despite seeing an improvement in its sales volume in 1H23, First Resources still recorded a 16.1% YoY lower sales of $448,8m in 1H23.

According to First Resources, its sales were offset by the "effect of lower average selling prices."

Given the lower sales value, the company recorded a 44.1% YoY decline in its net profit ($71.5m).

The company, however, underscored that it remains in a "healthy financial position" and has declared an interim dividend of $0.0250 per share.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
