Oilseeds and grain business flourished.
Wilmar reported that its net profit jumped 18% year-on-year to $279.4m (US$201.8m), driven by the near-doubling of profits in its oilseeds and grains segment.
However, its tropical oils segment turned in a lower profit in the quarter due to lower crude palm oil (CPO) prices while sugar saw weaker performances amidst tougher operating conditions.
Revenue for the quarter declined 12% to $12.84b (US$9.28b), mainly due to lower commodity prices.
Wilmar has proposed an interim tax exempt one-tier dividend for 1H2015 of $0.025 per share forthe first half, payable on August 26, 2015.
