Golden Agri's FY 2025 profit jumps 10% to $506m

FY2025 profit rises to $506m as upstream EBITDA grows 25% despite extra costs.

Golden Agri-Resources (GAR) reported profit attributable to owners of the Company of $506.0m (US$400m) for 2025, up 10% from the previous year, as revenue reached a record $16.4b (US$12.95b), a 19% increase.

Earnings per share (EPS) improved in line with the higher PAT, reflecting stronger returns for shareholders.

Underlying profit, which excludes non-operational items such as foreign exchange effects and depreciation of bearer plants, rose 25% to $660.3 (US$522m).

EBITDA grew 14% to $1.6b (US$1.3b), while the plantations and palm oil mills segment drove upstream EBITDA 25% higher to $896.8 (US$709m) on stronger crude palm oil and palm kernel prices.

The downstream business, which includes processing and merchandising palm and oilseed products, recorded revenue of $16.2b (US$12.8b) and EBITDA of $695.7 (US$550m), with sales volumes rising 3%.

GAR’s board has proposed a final dividend of 0.952 Singapore cents per share, an 18% increase, subject to shareholder approval.

The company also continued sustainability and smallholder programmes in Indonesia, methane capture projects, and operational efficiency initiatives to support long-term growth.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
