Food Empire profit slumps 32% in FY 2025

Net profit rose 37% in FY2025 on record revenue and 45% jump in normalised EBITDA.

Food Empire Holdings reported a net profit after tax of $45.4m (US$36.0m) a decrease of 32.0% year‑on‑year in 2025, even as revenue increased.

Normalised basic earnings per share rose to 15.82 Singapore cents (12.55 US cents), up 32.8% from 12.7 Singapore cents (9.45 US cents) in FY2024, reflecting improved operational margins.

Group revenue reached $727.4m (US$576.9m), whilst EBITDA held relatively steady at a 0.3% loss to $102.15m (US$80.883m).

Performance was broad‑based. Revenue in Russia rose 34.8% to $241.5m (US$191m) whilst Southeast Asia grew 14.3% to $187.0m (US$147.8m) and Central Asia increased 25.6% to $129.0m (US$102.0m)

As at 31 December 2025, cash and equivalents stood at $227.8m (US$180.8m), up from $165.3m (US$130.9m) a year earlier.

The group proposed a total dividend of $0.12 per share, its highest on record.

Food Empire expects growth from new and expanded production facilities in Kazakhstan and Malaysia, and planned investments in India and Vietnam to support future performance.

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.
