BORNEO LUMBUNG TO BUY BUMI STAKE, SWAP CEO - THE JAKARTA GLOBE


The Jakarta Globe, one of the leading english news paper in Indonesia reported yesterday, shareholders of Indonesian coking coal miner Borneo Lumbung Energy & Metal on Friday approved the management’s plan to purchase a 23.8 percent stake in London-listed Bumi for $1 billion as well as buying back up to 5 percent of its floating stocks in the market to stabilize their price.

The approval paves the way for Borneo Lumbung to jointly own a combined 47.6 percent stake in Bumi, previously known as Vallar, with two Bakrie Group affiliates, Bakrie & Brothers (BNBR) and Long Haul Holdings.

Borneo Lumbung is owned by businessman Samin Tan, who also owns investment firm Renaissance Capital.

The extraordinary meeting of shareholders on Friday also approved the appointment of Alexander Ramlie — a former banker at local and overseas lenders and executive at Indonesian private equity firm Ancora Capital — as Borneo Lumbung’s new chief executive, replacing Samin.

Samin indirectly controls 73 percent of the company.

“I was asked to replace him [Samin]. That will be effective from today,” Ramlie told reporters. Samin will be nominated for a position at the board of Bumi, replacing Indra Bakrie.

The Bakrie family has been rumored to have close ties with Samin’s business empire, although it has gone on record to deny the existence of any structural connection.

Proceeds from the stock sale to Borneo Lumbung will be used to help refinance Bakrie’s mounting debt, which is owed to a number of overseas lenders, led by Credit Suisse.

Borneo Lumbung’s shares closed 1.2 percent higher on the Indonesia Stock Exchange on Friday, at Rp 830.
