2 April 2026 PTBA Records Solid Operational Growth, with Production and Sales Rising Amid Global Price Volatility in 2025 Jakarta, April 2, 2026 - PT Bukit Asam (Persero) Tbk (PTBA), a member of the MIND ID Group, recorded solid operational performance throughout 2025. Amid the challenges of a correction in global coal prices, the Company increased its production volume by 9% to 47.2 million tons and achieved a 6% rise in sales volume, reaching 45.4 million tons. In line with the increase in production and sales, coal transportation volume also rose by 6%, from 38.2 million tons to 40.4 million tons in 2025. These positive achievements across both upstream and downstream segments reflect the success of the Company's adaptive strategy in maintaining the continuity of energy supply, both for domestic needs and international markets. PTBA remains a key pillar of national energy security, allocating 54% of its total sales to the domestic market. At the same time, the Company continues to aggressively expand and diversify its global market, with exports accounting for 46% of total sales. In addition to strengthening its presence in Asian markets such as Bangladesh, India, Vietnam, South Korea, and the Philippines, PTBA has successfully penetrated new markets in Europe, namely Spain and Romania. PTBA President Director Arsal Ismail emphasized that the Company's operational performance in 2025 reflects its business resilience amid fluctuating global coal prices. "2025 is proof of our operational resilience. Despite a correction in the average selling price due to a 22% decline in the Newcastle index, PTBA has successfully addressed these challenges through improved operational efficiency and expansion of its global market share," he explained. Despite the volatility of the global market, PTBA's financial performance remains healthy, supported by strong cash flow. Throughout 2025, PTBA recorded a net profit of Rp2.93 trillion and EBITDA of Rp6.08 trillion. Although profitability was under pressure from global price dynamics, the Company demonstrated promising quarterly recovery. This was supported by a solid financial position, as reflected in a significant 24% increase in operating cash flow to Rp6.26 trillion, indicating strong business fundamentals. Total assets grew to Rp43.92 trillion, driven by the addition of strategic fixed assets. Capital expenditure (CapEx) realization reached Rp4.55 trillion, focused on long-term infrastructure development, including the Tanjung Enim-Kramasan coal transportation railway project. Entering 2026, PTBA welcomed the approval of its Work Plan and Budget (RKAB) without any reduction in production volume. The Company is targeting both production and sales of 49.5 million tons this year. Arsal added that a cost leadership strategy through selective mining and supply chain optimization will remain the Company's key driver in maintaining competitiveness. "With a focus on efficiency and sustainable business development, while upholding good corporate governance, PTBA is optimistic about sustaining positive performance to contribute to the national economy and maintain national energy security," he concluded.
