ITMG TO UP COAL OUTPUT DESPITE PERMIT PROBLEMS - THE JAKARTA POST


The Jakarta Post reported that, the country’s third largest coal producer PT Indo Tambang Raya Megah (ITMG) said it can raise output although facing land permit problems on a site controlled by its subsidiary, PT Jorong Barutama Greston.

ITMG president director Somyot Ruchirawat told reporters after a shareholders meeting in Jakarta that the land permit problem in South Kalimantan would slightly affect the subsidiary’s coal output.

“Jorong will contribute 2 million tons of coal this year, down from 3.1 million tons a year earlier,” he said.

Jorong is said to have received a permit from the forestry ministry for operating its site but has yet to adhere to a government regulation on spatial planning.

Regardless of this, Somyot said ITMG would be able to produce 23 million tons of coal this year, up from 21 million tons last year, thanks to increased output from other subsidiaries: PT Indominco Mandiri, PT Trubaindo Coal Mining, PT Kitadin Embalut and PT Bharinto Ekatama.

To fulfill production targets, according to Ruchiwarat, ITMG will optimize its production from existing coal mines including a site controlled by Bharinto, which will reach the production stage in April.

Trubaindo is expected to contribute 6 million tons of coal this year, while Indominco will contribute 13.2 million tons, and Embalut will contribute 1.2 million tons.

“However, we expect our new mines in Bharinto will produce 200,000 tons this year,” Ruchiwarat said, adding the new site would be fully operational in 2011 and produce around 2 million tons of coal.

ITMG acknowledged that another new coal mine, Tandung Mayang in Kutai, East Kalimantan, will produce about 1 million tons in 2011.

Indo Tambangraya currently has about 294 million tons in its coal reserves in Kalimantan. The company sells its coal mostly to Japan, China, Taiwan and India.

Ruchiwarat refused to disclose the company’s revenue target this year, saying it depended on coal prices in the international market. The company predicts the coal price might be around US$60-$75 per ton in the international market, lower than last year’s average $71.5 per ton.

This year, the company aims to complete two projects in Bontang, Kalimantan; a coal terminal expansion costing $41 million in investment and a coal power plant requiring $6 million. “The coal terminal will be finished in the first quarter while the power plant is targeted to be running by mid-year,” said director Edward Manurung.

ITMG will allocate $101 million of capital expenditure (capex) this year, which mostly will be used for infrastructure and a coal washing plant for Trubaindo. The capex will be internally financed, as the firm has $429 million in cash reserves.

Based on the company’s financial performance, in 2009, Indo Tambangraya booked  $336 million in net income, a 43 percent increase from $235 million a year earlier, while its gross revenue rose by 15 percent from $1.3 trillion in 2008.

Edward said that the main contributing factor to higher net profit was increased coal sales volume, which increased by 18 percent to 21 million tons from 17.7 million tons in 2008. 

On Monday, ITMG, through its shareholders meeting, agreed to a dividend of Rp 1,964  per share.
