OVERALL PERFOMANCE

 

Originally named N.V. ESSENCE INDONESIA, the company was established in 1956 with legal status of N.V. (Naamloze Vennootschap) equivalent with P.T. (Perseroan Terbatas) or Limited Liability Company. In July 1970 the company name was changed to P.T. ESSENCE INDONESIA (P.T. EI). Its notarial act subsequently underwent further revisions. By the term of the notarial act revision 1970, the authorized capital was set at US$ 650,000.- entirely issued and paid up. The shares are wholly controlled by INTERNATIONAL FLAVORS & FRAGRANCES Inc., of New York, USA. In December 1997 the authorized capital was converted from US$ to Rp 211,910,000.- and by the same time Mr. Drs. Kurnia Irwansyah Rais joined in as a new shareholder of P.T. EI.  The deed of amendment was made by Mr. Singgih Susilo, SH., a public notary in Jakarta under Company Registration Number C-UM.02.01.9070.TH.2006, dated June 01, 2006.

 

P.T. EI is a foreign capital investment company (PMA) dealing with flavor, fragrance and aroma chemical industry. Its plant is located at Jalan Otto Iskandarwinata No. 74, East Jakarta, on a land of some 1.5 hectares. The plant has been operating since 1956 with a production capacity of 12,000 tons flavor, fragrance and aroma chemical per year, with an investment of US$ 650,000. In January 1998 it was licensed for plant expansion to pro-duce 25,000 tons flavor, fragrance and aroma chemical per year.  Mrs. Fia, a staff of the company said to our inquiry that some 70% of the products is marketed locally to a number of food and drink industries like P.T. COCA COLA, P.T. INDOFOOD SUKSES MAKMUR, etc. The other 30% is exported to the USA, Philippines, Thailand, Japan and other European countries. P.T. ET belongs to a medium sized company of its kind in the country.

The demand for flavor and fragrance had been declining as from the mid of 1997 until the early of 2000 in line with the weakening of the industries consuming the above products as the impact of the economic crisis striking Indonesia as from the mid of 1997. Later as from the mid of 2000, the demand growth started rising by 8% to 10% per annum within the last three years. Market competition is very tough on account of some 27 other similar companies operating in the country among other are P.T. MANE INDONESIA, P.T. ISLANDSUN INDONESIA, P.T. JUTARASA ABADI, P.T. MULTIFRAGRANCE, P.T. QUEST INTERNATIONAL INDONESIA, etc.  Business position of P.T. EI is quite favorable for it has controlled a wide marketing chains and customers in several major cities in the country.

Until this time P.T. EI has not been registered with Indonesian Stock Exchange, so that they shall not obliged to announce their financial statement. We observed that total sales turnover of the company in 2004 amounted to Rp. 110.0 billion rose to Rp. 125.0 billion in 2005 increased to Rp. 140.0 billion in 2006 and projected to go on rising by at least 7% in 2007. The operation in 2006 yielded an estimated net profit of at least Rp. 1.6 billion and the company has an estimated total networth of at least Rp. 60.0 billion.    We observe that P.T. EI is supported by a foreign company which has financially fairly strong behind it.  So far, we did not heard that the company having been black listed by the Central Bank (Bank Indonesia).

 

The management of P.T. EI is headed by Mr. Kurnia Irwansyah Rais (49), a well-experience businessman in flavors and fragrances industry and trade. The management is also assisted by  Mr. Christopher James Osborne as Director and a number of professionals from its principal of IFF Group of the USA. A wide business relations among private companies at home and overseas has been maintained properly. So far, we did not hear that the company’s management involved in a dirty business practice or detrimental cases that settled in the country. The company’s litigation record is clean and it has not registered with the black list of Bank of Indonesia.

 

P.T. ESSENCE INDONESIA is sufficiently fairly good for business transaction. However, in view of the unstable economic condition in the country we recommend to treat prudently in extending a loan to the company.
