KEY HIGHLIGHTS
- Net profit IDR 592Bn, +36.7% YoY and +6.0% QoQ, taking 1H26 to IDR 1.2Tn: 49.0% of FY26F consensus, against revenue 52.0% but operating income 44.3%.
- Revenue IDR 5.6Tn, +19.3% YoY, a record quarter, with OEM manufacturing +21.6% YoY overtaking trading for the first time in four quarters.
- Operating profit fell 10.8% QoQ to IDR 277Bn on a 15.1% gross margin, entirely on OEM: manufacturing gross margin fell 1.7pp QoQ to 6.5% while trading held at 23.8%. Associate and JV income of IDR 328Bn now exceeds operating profit at 1.18x.
- Our read: the top line is real, the earnings quality is not. Revenue is at a record and ahead of consensus pace, but the margin gave it back and profit leans on JV income and an 11.4% tax rate, not operating leverage. The operating-line misses are seasonal: 1H is only 43.7% of FY25 EBIT. At 5.0x forward P/E against a 6.4x 5-year mean, that is largely reflected; we want OEM margin to recover in 3Q26 before treating the mix shift as an upgrade.
