Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Linkedin

BUA Foods Plc has released its Audited financial result that ended December 2021, revealing a profit of N69.77 billion, representing a 97% growth from the prior-year period, as revenue grew by 73%.

The year being reviewed witnessed a persistent increase in prices of goods and services, resulting in inflationary pressures that affected both consumers, whose purchasing power and disposable income were consistently dwindling, and producers who were also faced with a significant increase in the cost of raw materials and general production costs.

Although the company recorded growth in sales on the back of double-digit food inflation, bottom-line profit was affected by increased production costs as well as finance costs which grew by a whopping 78% and 40%, respectively, during the period under review.

Highlight of the result

  • A cursory view of the result shows that the group operates 5 key segments including Sugar, Pasta, Molasses, Bakery Flour, and Bran.
  • The Sugar segment is classified into Fortified and Non-fortified Sugar, and both combined generated the highest revenue by segment, that is, 63% of the total revenue.
  • The sales from Fortified Sugar segment grew by 91% to generate N129 billion, while Non-fortified sugar raked in N79.16 billion y-o-y to appreciate by 136.18%
  • Bakery Flour generated the second-highest revenue, raking in N64 billion, representing 19% of total revenue. The Pasta, Molasses, and Bran segments made up the remaining 18% of the total revenue.
  • Interest income from bank deposits stood at N2.89 billion, as against N31 million in 2020. However, substantial interest expenses resulted in a Net finance cost of N2.16 billion.
  • In addition, the company also made money from rental income, to rake in a total of N1.52 billion during the financial period.
  • BUA Foods Plc revenue performance for the period was affected by high-interest expenses, high costs of sales, which also affected profit as a trickled down effect. However, Advertisement expenses grew by 118%, which may suggest that the group grew its sales on the back of intensified promotion and advertising.
