Wilmar's net profit down 12.3% to $1.7b in in FY14

On back of weaker CPO prices.

Wilmar’s net profit declined 12.3% to $1.7b (US$1.26b) in FY14, primarily due to margin contraction in Palm and Laurics during the first nine months of FY14 as well as the lower soybean crushing margins.

Revenue decreased 2.3% to $58.5b (US$43.1b) in FY14 mainly due to lower average selling price in consumer products and also lower palm prices in the fourth quarter.

Correspondingly, costs of sales decreased 8.5% to $13.2b (US$9.7b) in the fourth quarter and 2.7% to $53.32b (US$39.3b) FY14.

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.
