PalmCo Profit Grows 65 Per Cent to Rp6.19 Trillion in 2025

Subholding Perkebunan Nusantara PTPN III (Persero), PTPN IV PalmCo, recorded unaudited net profit of Rp6.19 trillion throughout the 2025 financial year. This achievement demonstrates significant growth of 65 per cent year-on-year (YoY).

Chief Executive Officer of PTPN IV PalmCo, Jatmiko K. Santosa, stated that this financial performance resulted from the implementation of consistent operational strategies across various business lines. He noted that profit growth was not solely influenced by commodity prices, but also by the company’s internal transformation.

“Our focus centres on three main aspects: increasing productivity, appropriate efficiency, and asset optimisation conducted consistently,” said Jatmiko in a written statement on Monday (2 March).

From the upstream operational perspective, fresh fruit bunch (TBS) productivity for palm oil reached 20.63 tonnes per hectare, an increase of 3 per cent compared to the previous year. Meanwhile, in the downstream sector, crude palm oil (CPO) productivity grew 9 per cent to 4.70 tonnes per hectare. Profitability performance was also supported by efforts to reduce production losses and increase oil yield through modernisation of processing facilities and digitalisation of business processes.

In line with this, the company’s EBITDA margin increased to 26.05 per cent, rising 11.44 per cent compared to the previous period. The effectiveness of asset management also showed improvement, reflected in Return on Asset (ROA) reaching 7.9 per cent, exceeding the company’s initial target of 4.9 per cent.

“Compared with 2024 which was at 5.3 per cent, our ROA has experienced growth of approximately 49 per cent. Cumulatively over the last three years, the asset profitability indicator has more than doubled,” concluded Jatmiko.
