  • Wilmar reported 2022 core net profit of US$2,244m (+22% y-o-y), which is its second consecutive year of record-high profit. This is within our expectations, with its strong feed and industrial segments backed by strong sales volume, despite weak sales volume for its food product segment, especially in China due to the widespread outbreak of COVID-19.
