Feb 26 (Reuters) - Singapore-listed Wilmar International WLIL.SI reported a 9.7% rise in annual core net profit on Thursday, bolstered by strong performance from its feed and industrial products segment.
The company, one of the world's largest food producers, posted a core net profit of $1.28 billion for the 12 months ended December 31, up from $1.16 billion reported the previous year.
That missed the Visible Alpha consensus of $1.31 billion.
