JOHOR BAHRU, Aug 15 (Bernama) — Johor Plantations Group Berhad (JPG) recorded a 51% year-on-year (YoY) increase in profit after tax (PAT) for the first half of 2025 (1H2025), reaching RM150.64 million. Revenue in 1H2025 saw a 12.6% increase to RM738.72 million, from same period last year (1H2024). While production volumes were lower YoY, the Group’s performance was supported by higher selling prices for both crude palm oil (CPO) and palm kernel (PK), alongside stronger outside crop purchase (OCP) that helped sustain throughput and strengthen profitability.
Following from this strong performance, the Board has declared a second interim dividend of 1.25 sen per share for the quarter, reflecting an EPS of 3.01 sen, rewarding its shareholders with a total dividend payout of RM31.25 million.
