ANNOUNCED RESULTS FOR THE THREE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED 31 MARCH 2019

Jakarta, 29 May 2019 - PT Barito Pacific Tbk. ("Barito Pacific", "BRPT" or the "Company") today released its consolidated financial statements for the three- month periods ended 31 March 2019, recording a net revenue of US$679 million, EBITDA of US$161 million and net profit after tax of US$36 million.

Agus Pangestu, the Company's President Director states that:

"1Q 2019 was a challenging period given the global backdrop of intensifying trade war between the US and China. Our petrochemical business was exposed to compressing spreads albeit somewhat buffeted by lower naphtha prices, while Star Energy continued to provide a moderating influence on our consolidated earnings, which helped the Group somewhat mitigate the challenging macro backdrop.

On operational side, TPIA is on track for a start-up of its new 400KTA Polyethylene later this year while the debottlenecking of Polypropylene plant is also underway in accordance with the schedule. The completion of these projects will further enhance the economies of scale and to fill shortage of Indonesian market.

Overall, we continue to generate healthy EBITDA margin of 24% and balance sheet position with net debt/EBITDA at 2.4x at consolidated level. We remain focus on delivering capacity growth and maintain high plant utilization. Contribution from geothermal business will continue to support our overall financial performance going forward".

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS:

Consolidated net revenues decreased by 17.9% y-o-y from US$827 million in 3M-2018 to US$679 million in 3M-2019 mainly attributable to:

  • Net Revenue from TPIA decreased by 20.6% from US$695 million in 3M-2018 to US$552 million in 3M- 2019 reflecting lower realized average sales prices, primarily for Ethylene and Polyethylene, and slightly lower sales volume by around 3.5% to 553KT in 3M-2019 from 573KT in 3M-2018. Cracker operating rate was 94%, while the Butadiene and Styrene Monomer plants operated at 83% and 105%, respectively.
  • SEG revenue contributed US$126 million to our 3M-2019 net revenue, slightly lower by 2.3% compared to the same period in 2018 mainly due to lower steam generation from Salak operations and lower electricity generation from Darajat operations due to its planned shutdown.

Cost of revenues decreased by 11.5% from US$582 million in 3M-2018 to US$515 million in 3M-2019.

The decrease was primarily due to lower feedstock costs, primarily Naphtha, which decreased by some 12% (US$603/ton in 3M-2018 to US$533/ton in 3M-2019) on the back of lower Brent crude oil prices by 5% year-on-year

Due to the effects of the above, therefore, gross profit decreased to US$164 million or 33.1% lower than 3M-2018.

Finance Costs increased by 6.3% from US$48 million in 3M-2018 to US$51 million in 3M-2019

Primarily due to impact of TPIA's new IDR bonds issued in 2018 and the effect of refinancing our US$250 million loan with a US$200 million loan.

Net Profit After Tax decreased by 60.7% from US$89 million in 3M-2018 to US$36 million in 3M-2019

As a result of the foregoing factors, we recorded a net profit after tax of US$36 million in 3M-2019, (60.7%) lower compared to the same period in 2018 largely due to lower gross profit for the period.

Total Assets

Total Assets as of 31 March 2019 amounting to US$6,849 million slightly decreased by 2.7% compared to the FY-2018 mainly attributed to lower cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash due to higher payments made to suppliers and refinancing of the US$250 million bank loan.

Total Liabilities

Total Liabilities decreased by 5.1% to US$4,117 million compared to 31 December 2018, mainly due to payments made to trade payables and the refinancing of US$250 million bank loan with US$200 million loan.

Total long-terminterest-bearing debt decreased by 2.4% to US$2,591 million compared to 31 December 2018.
