Rotterdam, The Netherlands<\/strong>, September 19, 2025 \u2013 Louis Dreyfus Company B.V. (LDC) published today its consolidated financial results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025, reporting resilient performance in a context of continued global challenges.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With net sales amounting to US$26.2 billion, EBITDA at US$987 million, and Segment Operating Results reaching US$1,217 million, the Group once again demonstrated the strength and resilience of its diversified business model, supported by disciplined risk management, operational excellence and market insight.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThanks to the agility and dedication of our global teams, and despite persistent geopolitical, regulatory and environmental challenges, we achieved continued volume growth, up 4.4% year on year, and delivered a robust financial performance, while maintaining strong momentum in pursuit of our strategic growth ambitions,\u201d said Michael Gelchie, LDC\u2019s Chief Executive Officer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the period, the Group advanced its strategic investments to strengthen core merchandizing capacity. In North America, construction advanced on new oilseeds processing facilities in both Canada and the US, while in South America, the Group further enhanced its grains and oilseeds inland origination capacity in Argentina<\/a>, expanded its coffee processing facility in Varginha, Brazil<\/a>, and boosted its Brazilian sugar export capabilities with the construction of a new intermodal transshipment terminal in Pederneiras, Brazil<\/a>, inaugurated in August.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

LDC also progressed with its downstream development initiatives. Work continued on LDC\u2019s new pea protein isolate production facility in Canada, and the semester also saw the inauguration of a new glycerin refining plant and edible oil packaging line in Lampung, Indonesia<\/a>, as well as a specialty feed lecithin production line in Tianjin, China<\/a>. The Group\u2019s Juice business also progressed in its downstream expansion journey, with the introduction of its Montebelo Brasil<\/em> bottled juices to the Indonesian, German and Portuguese markets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, the Group broke ground on a new Food Technology Park in Dongjiakou, China<\/a>, spanning both core merchandizing and downstream operations supporting the continued growth of its Grains & Oilseeds and Food & Feed Solutions business in the country. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur many achievements in the first semester of 2025, against a backdrop of persistent market turbulence and uncertainty, would not have been possible without the commitment and professionalism of our teams across the Group,\u201d said Michael Gelchie. \u201cIn the second half of the year, and beyond, we remain focused on delivering reliably for our business partners, leveraging our expertise, global reach and integrated asset network, which we expanded again in September with new teams and operations in Central Europe<\/a>. Together, we continue to advance our strategic roadmap for LDC\u2019s transformation into an increasingly integrated, innovative and sustainable food, feed, fibers and ingredients company \u2013 a roadmap that is all the more relevant in today\u2019s rapidly evolving global context.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
