WILMAR International said on Thursday net profit for the fourth quarter ended Dec 31, 2014, rose 8.7 per cent from a year ago, as stronger profitability in its mainstay - palm and laurics - partly offset weakness in its plantation segment, as well as oilseeds and grains business.

It also guided that its "integrated business model" should enable stable and resilient earnings this year.
