2Q17 review: Negative seasonal impact

Semen Indonesia (SMGR) posted its 2Q17 financial results after the market close last
Friday (7/28). For the quarter, its revenue came in at IDR6.3tr (-2.1% YoY; -1.3% QoQ) and
Cement net profit at IDR346.5bn (-62.8% YoY; -53.6% QoQ). Despite having reflected weaker
achievements on both a yearly and quarterly basis, we think the 2Q17 performance is not
Company Report comparable in a YoY perspective given that the Eid al-Fitr holiday fell in the second
July 31, 2017 quarter in 2017, as compared to the third quarter in 2016. While SMGRs cement
performance was sluggish in 2Q17, it is worth noting that its ready-mix concrete (RMC)
business saw gradual improvement during the period. We maintain Hold on SMGR with
an unchanged target price of IDR9,000.

Seasonal event was a drag on performance
Target Price (12M, IDR) 9,000 For 2Q17, SMGRs revenue came in at IDR6.3tr (-2.1% YoY; -1.3% QoQ). Cumulatively, its
1H17 revenue stood at IDR12.7tr (+2.0% YoY), reaching 44.7% and 46.4% of our and
Share Price (7/31/17, IDR) 9,950 consensus FY17 revenue estimates. It seems that the cement business was still gloomy
during 1H17 given a decline in SMGRs cement business segment growth (-8.8% YoY).
Expected Return -9.5% However, the company saw improvement in its other businesses, such as RMC business,
which offset its sluggish cement performance. Cements contribution to SMGRs revenue
was squeezed from approx. 96% in 1H16 to only 86% in 1H17, while the RMC business
contribution gradually improved from 2% in 1H16 to 6% in 1H17.

SMGRs subsidiary in Vietnam, Thang Long Cement Joint Stock Company (TLCC) also booked
sluggish performance during 2Q17. For the quarter, its revenue came in at IDR381.3bn (-18.2%
YoY; -3.3% QoQ), and net profit at IDR8bn (-51.1% YoY; -19.4% QoQ).

With Eid holidays effects now behind us and activities having gone back to normal, we expect to
see better volume sales in 2H17 (vs. 1H17). However, despite the better outlook for 2H17 cement
sales volume, SMGRs weak domestic average selling price (ASP) remains a challenge. We suspect
this is due to the persisting tight competition among cement producers and partly due to bulk
cements increased contribution (bulk cement usually has a lower ASP than bag cement).

Maintain Hold on SMGR

We still maintain our bearish call on the cement sector given our belief that improvement in
cement volume sales will not be enough to offset the decline in YoY ASP this year. High coal prices
also pose an additional burden for cement producers. We note that fuel component in SMGRs
cement cost structure surged approx. 20% YoY in 1H17.

However, despite its sluggish performance in 2Q17 (which we mostly attribute to seasonal effects,
which shifted to the second quarter from the third quarter, normally), it is noteworthy that
SMGRs other business, the RMC, showed potential growth given its recent gradual improvement,
in our view. The exceptional growth in East Javas cement consumption was also positive for
SMGRs cement volume growth.

We lowered our net profit estimates, reflecting our lowered operating profit margin projections.
We also made adjustments in SMGRs debt estimates, reflecting its IDR3tr bond issuance in June
2017. We maintain our Hold recommendation with an unchanged target price of IDR9,000. The
upside risks to our call include: 1) stronger-than-expected recovery in the property market; 2) the
governments supportive actions for the property and cement sectors; 3) cement industry
consolidation; and 4) weaker-than-expected coal prices.
