Golden Agri-Resources posts $489m net profit in 2024

The group's revenue also grew 12%.

Golden Agri-Resources Ltd (GAR) reported a net profit of $489m ($365m) for 2024, driven by higher crude palm oil (CPO) prices and strong sales.

The group's revenue also grew 12% to $14.6b ($10.9b) on record sales of 11.9 million tonnes.

EBITDA increased 12% to $1.5b ($1.1b), maintaining a 10% margin. Chairman and CEO Franky O. Widjaja credited the company’s vertically integrated operations for driving growth, alongside investments in technology and sustainability.

GAR expects palm oil prices to remain strong in early 2025, with demand rising during festive periods across Asia. The company also anticipates a recovery in Indonesian output as El Niño’s effects subside.

The board has proposed a final dividend of $0.00804 per share, totalling $100m ($75m), a 31% increase from the previous year. Pending shareholder approval, the dividend will be distributed on 20 May 2025.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up 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. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
