Petra’s net profit slipped 17.8% to $66.1m in FY14

Blame it on the weakening rupiah.

Petra Foods reported that its net profit slipped 17.8% to $66.1m (USD48.8m) in FY14, due mainly to the continued weakness of the Indonesian rupiah against the greenback.

Its revenue declined 0.9% to $682.7m (USD 504m). Excluding one-off costs related with its current dispute with Barry Callebaut, its net profit would have declined by 15.2%.

A final dividend of $2.58 cents with a special dividend of @2.19 cents were declared, bringing total distribution per share to $7.5cents.

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.
