Jakarta, July 29, 2021 – PT Saratoga Investama Sedaya Tbk (stock code: SRTG) reached a net asset value (NAV) of IDR 46.5 trillion in semester I-2021. This value increased from NAV at the end of 2020 of IDR 31.7 trillion. The company also recorded a net profit – attributed to owners of the parent entity – of IDR 15.3 trillion, compared to a net loss of IDR 2.1 trillion in semester I-2020.

Saratoga President Director Michael Soeryadjaya said that the success of our portfolio companies in maintaining a resilient performance in 2021 has increased the value of Saratoga’s portfolio. The positive performance is also accompanied by their consistent dividend distributions, which further strengthened Saratoga’s business fundamentals.

“The rising share price performance of our portfolio companies has supported Saratoga’s NAV growth during semester I-2021. This is proof that Saratoga’s portfolio companies are able to stay resilient during this pandemic,” said Michael, in an official statement in Jakarta, on Thursday (29/7).

Saratoga’s NAV growth in semester I-2021 was due to appreciation in share price of several portfolio companies; mainly contributed by PT Tower Bersama Infrastructure Tbk (stock code: TBIG), PT Merdeka Copper Gold Tbk (stock code: MDKA), PT Mitra Pinasthika Mustika Tbk (stock code: MPMX), and PT Provident Agro Tbk (stock code: PALM).

Saratoga also posted dividend income of IDR 866 billion in semester I-2021, an increase of 35.3 percent, from IDR 640 billion during the same period in the previous year. This dividend income is mainly contributed by PT Adaro Energy Tbk. (ADRO), TBIG, and MPMX.

Michael added that Saratoga will continue to implement a diversification strategy in deploying investments and disciplined financial management to maintain long-term business sustainability. Debt and cost ratios will continue to be managed and maintained at an efficient level. Currently, annualized operating costs to NAV is at 0.4 percent with loan to value at 5.7 percent.

Saratoga Investment Director Devin Wirawan explained that in semester I-2021, Saratoga continued to encourage portfolio companies to expand their business into new regions. For example, Primaya Hospital – under PT Famon Awal Bros Sedaya – has opened three new hospitals since the start of the year. The three hospitals were Primaya Hospital Bhakti Wara in Pangkal Pinang-Bangka Belitung, Primaya Hospital Sukabumi in West Java, and Primaya Hospital Pasar Kemis in Tangerang-Banten.

“The launch of these three new hospitals adds to Primaya Hospital’s existing operational assets, bringing them to 12 hospitals by end of semester I-2021. This expansion is also part of Saratoga’s initiative in supporting the government’s efforts to provide the best healthcare service amid the ongoing pandemic,” he said.

Devin also explained that one of Saratoga’s strategic portfolio companies, MDKA, has further strengthened its long-term business fundamentals. He revealed that the latest drilling test from the Tujuh Bukit Copper Project in Banyuwangi resulted in a significant intercept of copper and gold.

MDKA has also completed a feasibility study for the Acid, Iron, Metal (AIM) Project, which is projected to have a net present value (NPV) of IDR 5.8 trillion. The AIM Project is operated by Merdeka Tsingshan Indonesia (80 percent MDKA, 20 percent Tsingshan) and located in the Indonesia Morowali Industrial Park in Morowali Regency, Central Sulawesi. Construction has begun in quarter II-2021 and production is targeted to start in quarter II-2022.

Amid rising demand in the logistics sector, Devin said that Saratoga’s portfolio company, MGM Bosco Logistics, is currently constructing the second phase of its cold-storage facility in Bekasi. The new facility is expected to start operating in quarter IV-2021.

“Saratoga will continue to assist all of our portfolio companies in exploring new opportunities and growing their business value. We are also open to new investment opportunities, including in the technology sector, which is now growing rapidly in Indonesia,” Devin stated.

Jakarta, 28 April 2021 – The Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (AGMS) of PT Saratoga Investama Sedaya Tbk. (Saratoga, ticker code: SRTG) today approved the distribution of dividends of up to IDR 298.43 billion or IDR 110 per share. Additionally, the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders (EGMS) which was held following the AGMS also approved Saratoga’s management’s suggestion to conduct a stock split with a ratio of 1:5.

Saratoga President Director Michael W.P. Soeryadjaya explained that Saratoga’s consistency in distributing dividends to shareholders is part of the company’s commitment to continue providing optimal added value. This illustrates that Saratoga’s investment strategy is on the right track.

“We would like to express our gratitude for the support of our shareholders who have made it possible for the company to execute every investment plan. We are certain that this dividend and stock split decision will make Saratoga more attractive as an investment partner in the Indonesian capital market,” Michael explained at the conclusion of the AGMS and EGMS which were held online in Jakarta, Wednesday (28/4).

Michael commented that the COVID-19 which started in early 2020 has created a lot of uncertainty and drove down economic activity both globally and nationally. However, in such a highly dynamic and challenging situation, Saratoga managed to sustain positive growth momentum in its investment portfolio. This is reflected in the company’s net asset value (NAV), which went up by 39% to IDR 31.70 trillion by end of 2020.

“During the pandemic, the focus of our strategy is to maintain operational resilience, both at the parent company and all of our investment portfolio companies. By continuing to prioritize prudence in managing all risks and consistently implementing a diversification strategy, we are grateful that the target for operational resilience could be well-achieved,” he said.

In 2020, Saratoga’s investment value in PT Merdeka Copper Gold Tbk (MDKA) increased 120% to IDR 10.18 trillion and the investment value in PT Tower Bersama Infrastructure Tbk (TBIG) increased 56% to IDR 12.64 trillion. Saratoga also managed to book dividend income in 2020 of IDR 750 billion, most of which was contributed by PT Adaro Energy Tbk (ADRO) with IDR 215 billion, PT Tower Bersama Infrastruktur Tbk (TBIG) IDR 214 billion, PT Mitra Pinasthika Mustika Tbk (MPMX) with IDR 210 billion and PT Provident Agro Tbk (PALM) with IDR 105 billion.

Saratoga Investment Director Devin Wirawan said that to support the government in carrying out economic recovery efforts from to the COVID-19 pandemic, Saratoga will continue to optimize investment across business lines which represent the vital sectors for Indonesians. The company will also encourage members of its investment portfolio to venture out on a business expansion so that they will be able to reach more markets and provide solutions for the community.

Devin pointed out the expansion of PT Famon Awal Bros Sedaya (Primaya Hospital) which continues to provide the best medical services in various regions in Indonesia. In 1H21, Primaya Hospital is set to launch 4 new hospitals to complement the 9 hospitals that have been operating through the end of 2020. To support the acceleration of digitalization in Indonesia, PT Tower Bersama Infrastructure Tbk (TBIG) also continues to strengthen its telecommunication infrastructure, including through an acquisition of 3,000 towers from PT Inti Bangun Sejahtera Tbk. (IBST)

To support the expansion of its investment portfolio, Devin continued, Saratoga is also consistent in undertaking corporate actions and shoring up investment. For example, our investment in Mulia Bosco Logistik where the company’s share ownership increased from 7.5% to 23.7%. Saratoga has also increased the company’s share ownership in MPMX by 4.34% this month.

“Apart from the stock split, today’s EGMS also approved the company’s share buyback plan of up to 25 million shares or 0.92% of the paid-up shares. These corporate actions are Saratoga’s commitment to optimize every opportunity amid dynamic business challenges,” Devin said.

Jakarta, March 9, 2021 – PT Saratoga Investama Sedaya Tbk. (ticker code: SRTG) posted a solid performance in 2020. The company’s net profit increased by 20 percent to IDR 8.82 trillion. This was supported by an increase in the value of the investment portfolio, evidenced from the net asset value of Saratoga surging 39 percent to IDR 31.70 trillion at the end of 2020.

Saratoga President Director Michael Soeryadjaya remarked that the solid performance of Saratoga’s investee companies during the 2020 pandemic was the key to the company’s achievement. This was reflected in the increase in the value of Saratoga’s investments in a number of portfolio companies as well as consistent dividend payments.

“We are grateful that amid a difficult situation due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Saratoga has succeeded in sustaining its growth momentum and achieved a robust performance. As an investment company with long-standing experience in Indonesia, Saratoga prioritizes prudence by managing all risks involved and consistently implementing a diversification strategy. This approach has kept us strong amid uncertainty and allowed us to be responsive in addressing all the dynamic changes,” Michael said in Jakarta, Tuesday (9/3).

Throughout 2020, Saratoga directed its focus in developing corporate strategies to maintain operational resilience during the pandemic, both for the parent company and its investee companies. By the end of 2020, this target of operational resilience has proved to be achievable.

In 2020, Saratoga’s investment value in PT Merdeka Copper Gold Tbk. (ticker code: MDKA) rose 120 percent to IDR 10.18 trillion and the investment value in PT Tower Bersama Infrastructure Tbk. (ticker code: TBIG) increased by 56 percent to IDR 12.64 trillion.

Saratoga Investment Director Devin Wirawan explained that a number of Saratoga’s investee companies found their business growth momentum during the pandemic. He described that MDKA’s performance continued to strengthen thanks to the steep increase in gold and copper price in 2020. Amid economic uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic, gold is a “safe haven” commodity which will remain as the most sought-after investment instrument in the world. This opportunity will further strengthen MDKA’s fundamentals going forward.

Devin continued, society’s increasingly rapid adoption of the online digital ecosystems has provided greater opportunities for PT Tower Bersama Infrastruktur Tbk. as a provider of telecommunication infrastructure services. Meanwhile, in the consumer sector, PT Deltomed, which produces herbal medicines, has succeeded in optimizing the strong public demand for health products during this pandemic. PT Famon Awal Bros Sedaya, our hospital group, also continued to support the government’s efforts in controlling the pandemic by providing special rooms for COVID-19 patients as well as rapid test drive-thru services.

“As an active investment company, Saratoga continues to assist investee companies to grow and optimize every available opportunity. In a situation that remains highly dynamic and challenging, Saratoga’s cost ratio to net asset value, which is still low at around 1 percent, will help the company’s performance to remain solid,” Devin said.

Jakarta, April 29 2019 – PT Saratoga Investama Sedaya Tbk. (ticker code: SRTG) posted a net profit of 1.1 trillion during the first quarter of 2019, a significant increase from the same period last year. The increase in net profit, though unrealized, was mostly contributed by the share price rally of PT Adaro Energy Tbk. (ticker code: ADRO), PT Mitra Pinasthika Mustika Tbk. (ticker code: MPMX) and PT Tower Bersama Infrastructure Tbk. (ticker code: TBIG). This marked a good recovery of Saratoga’s portfolio companies from last quarter.

“We are glad to see that the equity investors recognized the growth potential and value of these companies.

Jakarta, March 27, 2019 – PT Saratoga Investama Sedaya Tbk. (Saratoga, ticker code: SRTG) posted over Rp 1.1 trillion of realized income during 2018. The income was primarily contributed by the dividend payment from the investee companies as well as divestment proceeds. In terms of the overall performance of the investment portfolio, though the fundamentals of the companies remained strong throughout the year, external factors such as raising interest rate, weakening currency and volatile commodity prices have put pressure on the JCI Index and consequently created an adverse impact to the share price performance of the investment portfolio. The company closed the year of 2018 with a net loss of Rp 6.2 trillion. The loss was unrealized and mainly driven by the mark-to-market share price movement of PT Adaro Energy Tbk. (ticker code: ADRO) and PT Tower Bersama Infrastructure Tbk. (ticker code: TBIG). The company’s total assets are Rp 20.1 trillion which are attributable to the investee companies that focus on three main sectors, namely natural resources, infrastructure and consumer goods and services.

Saratoga President Director Michael Soeryadjaya explained that the company’s performance in 2018 illustrates that the investment strategy carried out by Saratoga was able to produce optimal investment results. Fundamentally, Saratoga’s investee companies also enjoyed positive growth and continued to increase the company’s added value through organic and non-organic growth strategies.

“We are pleased with the performance of our investee companies amid the highly dynamic business challenges in 2018. The discipline and prudence from our investment team were key to Saratoga’s success in achieving optimal investment returns,” Michael explained in Jakarta, (27/03).

Michael further explained that in 2018 the company posted dividend income of Rp 900 billion by 6 investee companies. For us, this result demonstrated the strong operational and business performance of the investee companies. We are delighted to see not only continous growth of the dividend income over the years but also,  and more importantly, the diversification of the investee companies that are contributing the dividends. That being said, due to the persistant market volatility throughout the year and the new accounting treatment adapted in 2017, we have recorded a net loss, unrealized, of IDR 6.2 trillion. From time to time, it is normal for the market to go through different stages of volatility and as long term  investors we remain confident on the outlook of the investee companies and believed the share prices will eventually catch up with the fundamentals of the companies.

In 2018, Saratoga also continued to identify opportunities to add value. One of them is the new investment  in PT Aneka Gas Industri Tbk. (ticker code: AGII), the country’s dominant industiral gas supplier. To take advantage of the growth of the technology sector, Saratoga has also begun adding exposure to the start-up business via investment partners. The company believes that the tech sector holds promising prospects in the future due to disruption in our way of life and the wide implication to the community.

In addition, Saratoga divested its holding in Batu Hitam Perkasa, a minority shareholder of PT Paiton Energy. This strategy was part of an effort to complete the company’s investment cycle, where Saratoga not only invested, but was actively involved in growing and developing the company to achieve maximum potential. Saratoga also continues to actively support existing investee companies in growing their businesses, such as PT Mulia Bosco Logistics (MBL), Awal Bros Holding Group Hospital, and Deltomed, to name a few.

Saratoga Chief Financial Officer Lany Wong said Saratoga’s robust performance is also influenced by a number of corporate actions by investee companies through acquisitions and divestments carried out in the natural resources and consumer sectors.

“Saratoga will continue to encourage new investments both directly and through the Saratoga investee companies. This step demonstrates Saratoga’s commitment to strengthening three pillars in the natural resources, consumer and infrastructure sectors,” Lany said.

In the natural resources sector, PT Adaro Energy Tbk. (ticker code: ADRO) on August 1, 2018, with EMR Capital Ltd, a private equity company specializing in mining, completed an acquisition of Rio Tinto’s 80% ownership of Kestrel Coal Mine (Kestrel).

Meanwhile, PT Merdeka Copper Gold Tbk. (ticker code: MDKA) has made strategic acquisitons of two mining assets, acquiring majority stakes in Finders resources limited, which owns an operating copper mine on Wetar Island in West Nusa Tenggara; and the Pani greenfield gold project in Gorontalo, North Sulawesi.

In the consumer sector, PT Mitra Pinasthika Mustika Tbk (ticker code: MPMX) has completed a 100% strategic divestment of its shares in the company’s lubricant business, PT Federal Karyatama (FKT), with an overall transaction value of US$ 436 million. This transaction reaffirms MPMX’s commitment to continue exploring hidden values ​​in the company so that it can provide more value to shareholders in the form of capital appreciation and consistently strong dividend distribution.

“Saratoga’s investment strategy is to remain focused on three main sectors, but we will also be open to new opportunities such as investment in the technology sector. Amid the ongoing dynamics of the business, we expect Saratoga’s business portfolio to remain solid and grow sustainably,” Lany concluded.
