Food Empire net profit down 11.4% in 2024

Net profit in H2 was down by 10.1%

Food Empire Holdings Limited reported a net profit after tax drop of 11.4% from $75.52m (US$56.46m) in 2023 to $66.92m (US$50.03m) in 2024.

Revenue for the year went up 11.9% EBITDA slipped 9.9%.

In H2 2024, revenue was up 10.4% whilst EBITDA went down 8.3%. H2 net profit also slipped 10.1%.

The group said its revenue was boosted mainly by strong double-digit growth from its Southeast Asia, South Asia and Ukraine, Kazakhstan and CIS segments, and partially offset by a slight dip from its Russia segment due to the depreciation of the Russian Ruble against the US dollar. For the purpose of comparing underlying performance, Russia had achieved a 7.3% increase in revenue in local currency terms.

The Board of Directors has proposed a first and final dividend of 6.0 Singapore cents per ordinary share and a special dividend of 2.0 Singapore cents per ordinary share.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

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.
