Olam’s net profit triples to $94.7m in 2Q

On back of improved margins.

The agri-business company continued its strategy of restructuring by deprioritizing lower margin businesses, but still saw a robust growth for its net profit in 2Q.

Easing priority from lower margin businesses, however, caused a drop in Olam's revenue by 16% to S$4811.6m.

"1H15 revenue was down 14% at S$7516.3m, meeting 44% of our full-year forecast, while reported NPAT tumbled 70.6% to S$126.0m; operational NPAT was actually up 48% at S$223.7m, or about 51% of our FY15 forecast," a report from OCBC said.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.
The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.
If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

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