Episode Synopsis

Wilmar International Limited's third quarter of 2025 saw significant improvements in core profitability, reflecting stronger operational success across all key segments. The Food Products segment performed better, boosted by steady sales growth and strong results in China, while the Feed & Industrial Products segment recorded favourable outcomes. However, overall results were unfortunately impacted by a substantial compensation payment arising from an Indonesia Supreme Court decision concerning historical actions during a cooking oil shortage. Despite this setback, the Group achieved stable operating cash flows and reduced its net debt, maintaining a cautiously optimistic outlook.
