INDONESIA - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Indonesia has seen a slowdown in growth since 2012, mostly due to the end of the commodities export boom. During the global financial crisis, Indonesia outperformed its regional neighbors and joined China and India as the only G20 members posting growth. The government has promoted fiscally conservative policies, resulting in a debt-to-GDP ratio of less than 25% and historically low rates of inflation. Fitch and Moody's upgraded Indonesia's credit rating to investment grade in December 2011. Indonesia still struggles with poverty and unemployment, inadequate infrastructure, corruption, a complex regulatory environment, a current account deficit, and unequal resource distribution among regions. President Joko WIDODO - elected in July 2014 - has emphasized maritime and other infrastructure development, and especially increased electric power capacity, since taking office. Fuel subsidies were almost completely removed in early 2015, a move which could help the government increase spending on its development priorities. Indonesia, with the nine other ASEAN members, will continue to move towards participation in the ASEAN Economic Community, though full implementation of economic integration will not be completed by the previously-set deadline of year-end 2015.

OVERALL PERFORMANCE

 

P.T. INDOFERRO was incorporated in Cilegon, Banten Province based on notary deed of Mrs. Esther Mercia Sulaiman, SH., No. 80 dated 23 November 2006 with the authorized capital of US$ 20,000,000 issued capital of US$ 10,000,000 entirely paid up. The company was founded by SYNERGIST INTERNATIONAL LTD., of British Virgin Island, LEE METAL GROUP of Singapore, both are as foreign partners, with Mr. Fajar Suhendra and Mr. Sugih Suhendra both are Indonesian business family of Chinese descents as local partners. The company notary deed had been changed a couple of times. In January 2011 the company authorized capital was increased to US$ 100,000,000 issued capital to US$ 70,000,000 fully and paid up. On the same occasion LEE METAL GROUP of Singapore withdrew and into the company joined by LMG INDOFERRO PTE, LTD., Singapore and ORIGIN HOLDINGS (HK) LTD., Hong Kong as new shareholders. With this development the composition of its shareholders has been changed to become SYNERGIST INTERNATIONAL LTD., British Virgin Island (67.5%), LMG INDOFERRO PTE, LTD., Singapore (15.0%), ORIGIN HOLDINGS (HK) LTD., Hong Kong (15.0%), Mr. Fajar Suhendra (1.5%) and Mr. Sugih Suhendra (1.0%).

 

Then according to revision of notary documents of Mrs. Popie Savitri Martosuhardjo Pharmanto, SH., No. 23 dated 17 July 2012 the company’s board of director and the board of commissioner had been changed. The latest according to revision of notary deed Mrs. Popie Savitri Martosuhardj, SH., dated February 2014 the company authorized capital was raised to US$ 150,000,000 issued capital to US$ 100,000,000 entirely paid up. With this development the composition of its shareholders has been changed to become SYNERGIST INTERNATIONAL LTD., (62.75%), ORIGIN HOLDINGS (HK) LTD., (25.00%), LMG INDOFERRO PTE. LTD., (10.50%), Mr. Fajar Suhendra (1.05%) and Mr. Sugih Suhendra (0.7%). The deed of amendments was approved by the Ministry of Law and Human Rights in its decision letter No. AHU-AH.01.10-09107 dated March 6, 2014.

 

We observe the local partner Mr. Fadjar Suhendra is also founder and majority business stakes owner of the GROWTH STEEL Group, a small sized company group in Medan dealing with steel mills manufacturing steel products, including steel billets, steel reinforcing bars, steel angel bars and cold drawn steel shafting bars, iron and steel foundry, shrimp culture and sea food products processing, cassava palletizing and chip manufacturing.

 

P.T. INDOFERRO operates under Foreign Capital Investment (PMA) facility in the manufacturing of nickel pig iron. The company's plant is located on a 23 hectares land at Jalan Sunan Demak No. 8, Ciwandan, Cilegon, Banten Province. The construction of the plant has begun since 2009 and completed since July 2012. P.T. Indoferro is processing pig iron (steel industrial raw materials) or nickel pig iron. The company is processing iron ore into finished goods such as concrete steel, angle steel, plate steel or nickel ore as raw material for stainless steel. Construction of the plant has absorbed an investment of US$ 80 million first phase. Some fresh funds sourced from Eximbank (Export Financing Agency of Indonesia) for US$ 65 million. The plant has been producing since August 2012 with capacity of 500,000 tons nickel pig iron per annum. The whole basic materials like pig iron imported from overseas. P.T. INDOFERRO is currently producing Nickel Pig Iron (NPI) to serve stainless steel producers and nickel casting foundries in the Asian & European markets. This is the first smelter to start operations in Indonesia since the government implemented the new mining regulation of 2012 that requires processing mineral ores into value added product before exporting. Most of raw materials obtained from nickel ore and iron ore mines from Nangroe Aceh Darusalam, West Sulawesi and others. Later in 2012, P.T. INDOFERRO also expanded its capacity of nickel pig iron of 550,000 tons with an investment of US$ 160.0 million. The expansion plant will be commenced production in the end 2015 to meet the demand of steel milling in the country and overseas. Some 50% of the products supplied to P.T. GROWTH ASIA, P.T. GROWTH SUMATRA INDUSTRY, P.T. THE MASTER STEEL and other steel industries. Besides, some 50% of the products exported to Taiwan, Malaysia, Philippine, Thailand, Japan, Belgium, Spain and other Asian countries.

 

P.T. INDOFERRO has achieved long-term export contract from WALSIN LIHWA of Taiwan worth US$ 100 million – US$ 120 million per year. In the sales contract, both parties can make it happen for 20-30 years. In October 2012 P.T. INDOFERRO has made initial export 300 tons to Walsin Lihwa Taiwan. Later in 2013 P.T. INDOFERRO will export as much as 100,000 tons – 120,000 tons with a selling price range US$ 800 – US$ 1,000 per ton.  We observe the operation of P.T. INDOFERRO has been growing and running smoothly in the last three years.

 

The invention of Nickel Pig Iron (NPI) is credited to the Chinese steel makers who wanted a cheaper alternative to pure nickel, although in truth nickel pig iron was developed more than a hundred years ago. Considered low grade, laterite nickel ores are used in the production of nickel pig iron which in turn is then used in the production of stainless steel instead of using pure nickel. At a time when nickel prices had reached an all time high the production of cheaper nickel pig iron with the added benefit of the iron also contained in the nickel pig iron gave the Chinese producers an added advantage. Nickel laterite ores used to make nickel pig iron is mostly found in the tropical regions where the high rain fall over many millions of years has leached out much of the magnesium and silica of the original olivine-rich ultramafic rocks. Nickel laterites typically occur in regions where prolonged weathering of ultramafic rocks (containing ferro-magnesian minerals) has occurred, favoured by warm conditions with abundant rainfall. Nickel pig iron feed stock is composed of low-grade nickel ore, coking coal, and a mixture of fluxes. The mixture is first calcined and sintered into pellets before being fed into the blast furnace with additional ore and fluxes. Impurities and slags are then removed from the reduced nickel iron melt before the molten nickel-iron is cast into the pig-moulds forming the nickel pig iron.

 

The Indoferro complex uses the same process to convert nickel laterites into nickel pig iron in the first nickel pig iron producing sintering plant and blast furnace outside China.

 

Until this time P.T. INDOFERRO has not been registered with Indonesian Stock Exchange, so that they had not obliged to announce their financial statement. The management of the company is very reclusive towards outsiders and rejected to disclose its financial condition. We observed that total sales turnover of the company in the first year operation August to December 2012 amounted to Rp. 85.5 billion increased to Rp. 650.0 billion in 2013 to Rp. 780.0 billion in 2014 and projected to go on rising by at least 6% in 2015. The operation in 2014 has yielded a net profit of at least Rp. 37.0 billion. We observe that P.T. INDOFERRO is supported by foreign partner with has financially strong and sound behind it. So far, we did not heard that the company having been black listed by the Central Bank (Bank Indonesia). The company usually pays its debts punctually to suppliers.

 

The management of P.T. INDOFERRO is led by Mr. Radius Suhendra (41) a professional manager with experience in nickel pig iron industry. In its daily operation he is assisted by Mr. Dharmawi, SE (51), Mr. Tan Jung Sen (43), Mr. Li Qiang (66) and Mr. Ir. Sun Pu Wui (51) as Directors. The company's management is handled by professional staff in the above business. They have wide relations with private businessmen within and outside the country. So far, we did not hear that the management of the company being filed to the district court for detrimental cases or involved in any business malpractices. The company’s litigation record is clean and it has not registered with the black list of Bank of Indonesia. P.T. INDOFERRO is sufficiently fairly good for business cooperation.
