Domestic Economic Research : Economic Stability and Growth Opportunities 2025

13 Nov 2024
PHINTRACO SEKURITAS (AT) -13 November 2024- Indonesia's economy has shown a solid recovery, with GDP growth observed across spending sectors. This reflects resilience and a balanced approach to economic recovery. Household consumption remains a primary driver of economic growth, contributing steadily to domestic demand and encouraging broader sectoral gains. Business conditions have improved, seen in positive consumer confidence and absolute sales indices, creating a supportive environment for local and international investments. Indicators such as decreasing poverty and unemployment rates and improvements in income distribution suggest gradual progress in the quality of life for many Indonesians. The government has set an optimistic economic growth target of 5.20% for 2025, with strong domestic consumption expected to play a central role in achieving this goal. Prabowo-Gibran administration intends to prioritize human resource development, emphasizing educational improvement, vocational training, and digital skills to strengthen workforce readiness. Bank Indonesia is expected to continue with flexible monetary policies, which may include easing measures, to help sustain economic growth amid global uncertainties.

Global Economic Research: Cruising The Election and Gepolitical Waves

13 Nov 2024
The majority of countries started to show an increase in economic growth in 2Q24, after experiencing a slowdown at the beginning of the year. Global monetary policy was less-aggressive than expected in 2024. Several central banks started easing their monetary policy in 3Q24 as the inflation rate flattened. Geopolitical conflicts continue in 2024. The conflict in the Middle East has expanded to involve countries other than Israel and Palestine. Meanwhile, the Russia-Ukraine conflict will continue. Several commodity prices tend to stagnate in 2024 and There is still uncertainty risk from geopolitical conflict. Political conditions in global countries' election years were relatively stable. Economic activity's recovery has the potential to continue in 2025. This is driven by the easing of the monetary policy of several central banks, which could continue in 2025. The exchange rate has the potential to be more stable in 2025. By PHINTRACO SEKURITAS | Research - Disclaimer On -

Poultry: Regulations Supports the Poultry Industry’s Bright Prospect

01 Okt 2024
Domestic inflation stabilizes at low levels. CPI inflation in Indonesia was recorded at 2.12% YoY in August 2024, declining for the fifth consecutive month since April 2024. Inflation in the Volatile Food (VF) group fell to 3.04% YoY from 3.63% YoY in July 2024, mainly due to lower prices of shallots, broiler chicken meat, tomatoes, and eggs. We assess that the decline in commodity prices in the VF group has the potential to increase people's purchasing power, given that these commodities are commonly needed in everyday life. According to data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), per capita chicken meat consumption in Indonesia continues to increase, reaching 8.20 kg per year in 2023, growing 3.03% YoY from 7.96 kg in 2022.The government continues to improve the quality of Human Resources (HR) through the Makan Bergizi Gratis (MBG) program with a budget of IDR71 trillion in the 2025 Draft State Budget. We assess that the program has the potential to positively impact the poultry industry (chicken meat and egg products) to boost the company's financial performance in terms of top-line and bottom-line. The Ministry of Agriculture has taken strategic steps and collaborated with the Police Food Task Force to maintain the stability of live bird prices. We assess that the government's efforts to stabilize live bird prices can support growth in the poultry sector. The strategic steps taken by the government have the potential to provide better margins for poultry companies, especially for the live chicken and DOC segments. Prices of animal feed raw materials are softening. The domestic corn price at the farm level is at IDR5,990/kg, down 17.95% YTD from the early 2024 price of IDR7,300/kg. Meanwhile, the Soybean Meal (SBM) price is currently at US$329/ton, down 13.39% YTD from the early 2024 price of US$380/ton. The poultry companies in our coverage had positive financial performance in the first half of 2024. CPIN's net profit was recorded at IDR1.76 trillion in 6M24, up 28.3% YoY (vs IDR1.37 trillion in 6M23). Meanwhile, JPFA's net profit was recorded at Rp1.59 trillion in 6M24, up significantly by 1,314% YoY (vs Rp112 billion in 6M23). With the various catalysts above and the performance of each issuer in the poultry industry, our top picks are JPFA, with an estimated fair value of IDR1,990 and CPIN, with an estimated fair value of IDR5,850.

Banking: Maintaining Solid Performance in High Interest Rate Conditions

04 Sep 2024
Term Deposit (TD) rates of banks in coverage are relatively well maintained. Loans and third-party funds growth in Indonesia have been on an upward trend since 2023. Non-Performing Loans (NPL) fell 172 bps ytd to 2.23% in June. This achievement occurred despite several global central banks implementing tight monetary policies. Rupiah depreciation can be a risk for banking. However, along with the optimism of the Fed Funds Rate cut in September, the rupiah has appreciated again so that the rupiah only depreciated less than 1% to IDR15,520/USD on September 2. The 6M24 performance of banks in our coverage mostly reached 50% of our FY24 estimate. BI Rate has the potential to fall in The BI Rate has the potential to decrease in the fourth quarter of 2024. Indonesia's Trade Balance Surplus Maintained in the Last Three Years From 2024 until July 2024, Indonesia's Trade Balance (BOP) has always posted a surplus. In July 2024, the BOP posted a surplus of US$0.47 billion. Rupiah Exchange Rate Appreciation Has Potential to Continue Until End of 2024. Indonesian Banking Net Interest Margin Remains High Amid High Interest Rates. Return on Equity (ROE) growth in the last 5 years remains high. Banking capital adequacy in Indonesia. With the various catalysts above, as well as the performance of each issuer in the banking sector, we make our top picks BMRI with a potential fair value of IDR 8,171 > BBCA with a potential fair value of IDR 10,950 > BBRI with a potential fair value of IDR 6,165 > BBNI with a potential fair value of IDR 6,800 > BRIS with a potential fair value of IDR 2,970 > BBTN with a potential fair value of IDR 1,807.

Food & Beverage: Potential Increase in Public Consumption

28 Agu 2024
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation rate continues to decline. The CPI inflation rate in Indonesia stood at 2.13% YoY in July 2024. We estimate that the sluggish CPI inflation rate can potentially increase public consumption, which can positively correlate with issuers' financial performance in the consumer sector. The Consumer Confidence Index (CCI) is maintained at an optimistic level. We assess that consumer confidence maintained above the 120 level indicates that Indonesia's economic conditions are still quite strong, which has the potential to keep people's purchasing power solid and support future economic growth. The Retail Sales Index (RSI) experienced an increase in June 2024. The Retail Sales Index (RSI) was recorded at 229.0 in June 2024. We expect the Retail Sales Index (RSI) to be maintained in line with several National Holidays in 2H24 (Independence Day of the Republic of Indonesia and HBKN Christmas 2024), which have the potential to increase public consumption. The flagship program of President and Vice President-elect Prabowo-Gibran, namely Makan Bergizi Gratis (MBG), has been officially included in the Draft State Budget and Expenditure (RAPBN) for Fiscal Year 2025 with a budget allocation of Rp71 trillion or equivalent to 0.29% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The program has the potential to positively impact several sectors, one of which is the consumer sector (for processed foods such as spices and their supporters), so it can boost the company's financial performance. Prices of key raw materials flatten. During the first semester of 2024, the average price of Wheat was around US$596/Bu, a significant decline of 13.6% YoY. meanwhile, the average CPO price was around MYR4,014/ton, an increase of around 3% YoY. We assess that if both commodity prices tend to stabilize in the future, it will potentially increase the profitability of consumer sector issuers. Consumer sector issuers in our coverage still recorded sales growth in the first half of 2024. MYOR recorded sales growth of 9.48% YoY to IDR16.2 trillion, ICBP recorded sales growth of 7.20% YoY to Rp36.9 trillion, and INDF recorded sales growth of 2.16% YoY to IDR57.29 trillion. We recommend Overweight in the consumer sector with various catalysts above. Our top picks are MYOR, with estimated fair value of IDR2,950 > ICBP, with estimated fair value of IDR12,504 > and INDF, with estimated fair value of IDR7,842.

Telco Infrastructure : Tower Infrastructure is Evolving to Support Next-Generation Connectivity

19 Jul 2024
Interest rate hikes by the Fed and Bank Indonesia since 2022 increased interest costs for tower companies, expecting a rate cut in September 2024 that could reduce the company's interest expenses. TOWR benefits more than MTEL as its interest-bearing debt/total liabilities ratio is lower, so the expected rate cut this year could boost its profit margins. Indonesia's Digital Transformation 2030 aims to become the world's fifth-largest economy. Its focus is on developing and expanding digital infrastructure, particularly in remote areas. Telecommunications companies are expanding into Eastern Indonesia with great potential and low penetration, with government support in constructing broadband networks. We recommend overweight on the tower sector due to continued demand growth driven by government focus on infrastructure for Indonesia Emas 2045, with Top Picks TOWR (target price IDR850) and MTEL (target price IDR720), as well as upside risk from demand growth and realization of interest rate cAut.
