Wilmar's Lence Pte signs an option to buy up to 31.06% of Adani Wilmar from Adani Commodities at no more than Rs 305 a share, while Adani sells about 13% to the public, ending the Adani half of the Fortune joint venture.

Adani Commodities sells 175.6 million Adani Wilmar shares over two days on BSE and NSE, lifting public ownership to 25.3% as the first leg of the Adani Group's exit.

Core net profit fell 26% to US$1.16 billion, with weaker sugar merchandising and no repeat of the 2023 Cosumar sale gain; the total dividend was cut to S$0.16.

Adani Wilmar signs a definitive agreement for G.D. Foods, maker of Tops ketchup, sauces and pickles, taking 80% first at an enterprise value of Rs 603 crore and the rest over three years.

The maker of Fortune cooking oil drops the Adani name and becomes AWL Agri Business Limited under a fresh certificate of incorporation, as agreed in the Adani exit deal.

The Science Based Targets initiative approves Wilmar's goals to cut absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions 50.4% and Scope 3 emissions 30% by 2032 from 2022, and 90% by 2050, plus land-use (FLAG) targets.

AWL Agri Business takes 80% of G.D. Foods Manufacturing, owner of the Tops sauces and pickles brand, making it a subsidiary; the other 20% is due by fiscal 2028-29.

Shareholders passed every resolution at Wilmar's Biopolis headquarters; in written answers before the meeting, the company told a shareholder urging Kuok Khoon Hong to quit as CEO that he would hand over to a good successor.

Food products and plantations lifted the quarter while tropical-oil refining stayed tough and sugar volume fell 41.5%; Wilmar warned US tariffs made the rest of the year uncertain.

Wilmar agreed to take full ownership of PZ Wilmar, maker of Nigeria's market-leading Mamador and Devon King's cooking oils, buying out its UK partner for US$70 million in cash.

Lence Pte agrees to buy between 11% and 20% of AWL Agri Business from Adani Commodities at Rs 275 a share, replacing the December option, while Adani places its other 10.42% with investors.

Plantations and food products drove a 26% jump in pre-tax profit, but core net profit slipped 4% and Kuok Khoon Hong said the full year hinged on Indonesian authorities resolving issues with the group.

An IDR 11.88 trillion (about US$712 million) payment ordered by Indonesia's Supreme Court turned the quarter into a US$347.7 million net loss, even as core net profit jumped 72%.

Lence Pte completes its purchase of 168,958,219 AWL Agri Business shares from Adani Commodities at Rs 275 each, about Rs 46.5 billion, making the Fortune maker a 56.94%-owned Wilmar subsidiary.

Adani Commodities sells its final 90,977,502 AWL Agri Business shares in a bulk deal on the exchange floor, leaving Wilmar as the Fortune maker's only promoter group.

Wilmar's China arm sells its 50% stakes in Yihai Kerry Kellogg's Food (Shanghai) and (Kunshan) to Mars Wrigley China for US$45 million and US$15 million, after Mars bought Kellanova.

A US$1.14 billion gain from taking control of India's AWL Agri Business outweighed Indonesian compensation, Chinese legal provisions and a Pakistan write-down; the dividend was cut to S$0.14.

Wilmar's Indian sugar arm makes Kamboj chief executive from 23 March and managing director from 1 April 2026, as executive chairman Atul Chaturvedi, a former Adani Wilmar CEO, becomes a non-executive director.

Wilmar's lead independent director defended the risk committee he chairs over the China and Indonesia cases and won 95.9% of votes; Kuok Khoon Hong said he would retire if a suitable successor emerged.

Revenue jumped 22% with India's AWL now consolidated, but unrealised hedging losses from the Iran war and weaker associates cut net profit to US$265.6 million.

Two Wilmar companies sign supply, brand-licence and staff-transfer agreements: from 1 July 2026 AWL sells Madhur sugar across India while Shree Renuka keeps making it and owns the brand, for a 1% royalty.

Wilmar will pool its Nigerian and Beninese plantations, edible-oil and food businesses with TGI Group's brands and distribution in a Singapore-held 50:50 venture targeting a US$12 billion market.

Stronger tropical-oil refining, Chinese soybean crushing and a first full half of India's AWL lifted pre-tax profit 13% to US$1.06 billion; the interim dividend rose to S$0.05.

Wilmar's third-quarter executive summary is due after trading in late October, the first quarter with a comparison against the 3Q2025 Indonesia-payment loss.

Wilmar's full-year 2026 results and final dividend are due after trading in late February 2027, the first full year with India's AWL Agri Business consolidated.
