SINGAPORE, Feb 24 (Reuters) - Singapore-listed palm oil
company Golden Agri-Resources Ltd GAGR.SI posted a 137 percent
jump in fourth-quarter profit, helped by tax benefits and higher
market prices of crude palm oil (CPO).
Golden Agri, one of the largest palm oil plantation
companies in the world, reported a net profit of $46 million,
compared with $20 million a year ago.
The latest quarter included a net tax impact of $62 million
from a revaluation of its plantation assets in Indonesia.
