Jakarta, 6 August 2021 — PT Barito Pacific Tbk. (“Barito Pacific”, “BRPT” or the “Company”) today releases its consolidated financial statements for the six months period ended 30 June 2021. BRPT recorded consolidated net revenue of US$1,555 million, EBITDA of US$490 million and net profit after tax of US$237 million.
Agus Pangestu, the Company’s President Director states that:
“Our 1H-2021 financial results reflect a continuation of the strong start witnessed by our Petrochemical subsidiary Chandra Asri with healthy product spreads through the first half of this year along with a stable contribution from our Geothermal subsidiary Star Energy. Amid the still continuing challenges from the pandemic we have remained laser focused on operational continuity, business resilience and financial prudence at both our businesses.
We remain cautiously optimistic on the second half of the year as industrial activity continues to pick up despite the sporadic lockdowns that are difficult to predict however appear almost inevitable. Our focus will remain on business continuity and operational excellence both of which are aspects within our control.
Meanwhile, we recognize the stellar performance of our geothermal business (Star Energy) which continues to provide welcome stability at the Revenue and EBITDA levels while significantly improving our green footprint and sustainability credentials. Star maintained near maximum capacity operating rates at all three of its assets: Wayang Windu, Salak and Darajat for the 1H 2021 period.
On a consolidated basis, we generated EBITDA margin of 31.5% and maintain a robust balance sheet position with Net Debt/EBITDA multiple of 2.2x.
On the second petrochemical complex, we are also delighted that Chandra Asri (CAP) has finalized and selected Thai Oil Public Company Limited (Thai Oil), the flagship refinery of PTT Public Company Limited (PTT) as our strategic investor. The strategic investor will become a new partner in CAP via Pre-emptive Rights Issue that has been filed with the Financial Services Authority of Indonesia (OJK). As CAP major shareholder, Barito Pacific fully supports this corporate action. We are looking forward to working together to make the second petrochemical complex a reality and to create impact beyond returns that builds sustainable value for people, businesses and communities, in and beyond Indonesia."
1H-2020 Highlights:
- 1H-21 Net Revenues increased by 41% from US$1,103 million in 1H-20 to US$1,555 million mainly due to higher petrochemical product average sales prices particularly for Olefins and Polyolefins while sales volumes continue to be fully sold out.
- Cost of Revenues increased by 17% from US$902 million in 1H-20 to US$1,059 million in 1H-21 mainly attributed to higher Naphtha price which went up from US$420/MT 1H-20 to US$577/T in 1H-21 on the back of higher Brent crude (+63% yoy to an average of US$65/bbl versus US$40/bbl in 1H-20).
- EBITDA increased by 139% from US$202 million 1H-20 to US$490 million in 1H-21 primarily due improved spreads and resilient demand for Asian Petrochemicals amid supply outage in US market and container shortages amid pandemic related shipping dislocations.
- Net Profit After Tax came at US$237 million compared to US$13 million in 1H-20 a growth of 1641% yoy mainly as a result of market improvements, the competitive advantages of Chandra Asri and a solid execution across the board.
