JARDINE CYCLE & CARRIAGE LIMITED

2020 HALF YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND DIVID ANNOUNCEMENT

Highlights

   --    Underlying profit 66% lower at US$138 million 

-- Significantly weaker performances from Astra's automotive, financial services and heavy equipment and mining operations

   --    Direct Motor Interests down due to the temporary closure of automotive operations 

-- Other Strategic Interests impacted by Thaco's weaker performance and the timing of Vinamilk's interim dividend

   --    Interim dividend at USc9 per share, 50% lower than 2019 

"Jardine Cycle & Carriage's performance in the first half was significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and its economic consequences. The pandemic is expected to continue to adversely affect performance for at least the rest of 2020. The Group has been focused on reducing operational and capital expenditure, managing working capital and ensuring liquidity. The Board remains confident that the Group's strong financial position and clear strategic priorities will position it well to deliver long-term growth.

During this challenging period of disruption and uncertainty, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all colleagues for their continued hard work, professionalism and resilience."

Ben Keswick, Chairman

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

Overview

The performance of Jardine Cycle & Carriage ("JC&C" or "the Group") in the first half reflected the challenging conditions caused by the pandemic.

Astra saw significantly weaker performances from its automotive, financial services and heavy equipment and mining operations. The pandemic containment measures implemented across most of Indonesia have caused severe disruption to Astra's operations, including the temporary closure of its automotive manufacturing and distribution operations, and there was also a significant rise in the number of restructured loans in its financial services businesses. In addition, depressed coal prices led to a deterioration in Astra's heavy equipment, mining contracting and mining businesses.

The contribution from the Group's Direct Motor Interests and Thaco was substantially lower as automotive operations were suspended during the second quarter due to lockdown restrictions. The Group also saw a lower contribution from its investment in Vinamilk due to the timing of the declaration of its interim dividend, which will be recognised by JC&C in the second half of this year, whereas last year it was declared and recognised in the first half.

The Group's underlying profit attributable to shareholders was 66% lower than the same period last year at US$138 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange from the translation of foreign currency loans in JC&C parent company, underlying profit would be 55% lower than last year.

Profit attributable to shareholders decreased to US$301 million from US$427 million in the same period last year. This figure reflects a US$188 million gain on the disposal of Astra's investment in Permata Bank, which was partly offset by unrealised fair value losses related to non-current investments.

The Group's consolidated net debt, excluding Astra's financial services subsidiaries, was US$1.3 billion at the end of June 2020, compared to US$3.0 billion at the end of 2019, mainly due to the receipt of proceeds from the disposal of Astra's investment in Permata Bank. Net debt within Astra's financial services subsidiaries increased slightly to US$3.2 billion. JC&C parent company's net debt was US$1.5 billion, similar to the previous year end.

Group Review

The contribution to JC&C's underlying profit attributable to shareholders by business segment was as follows:

Astra

Astra contributed US$171 million to JC&C's underlying profit. Excluding the gain on the disposal of its investment in Permata Bank, Astra reported a profit equivalent to US$372 million under Indonesian accounting standards, 44% lower in its local currency terms than the same period last year. This was mainly due to significantly lower contributions from its automotive, financial services and heavy equipment and mining businesses, partially offset by its agribusiness.

Automotive

Net income fell by 79% to US$48 million, mainly due to a substantial fall in sales volumes, especially in the second quarter. Key points were as follows:

-- The wholesale car market declined by 46% in the first half to 261,000 units. Astra's car sales were 45% lower at 139,500 units, with its market share maintained at around 53%. Six new models and ten revamped models were launched.

-- The wholesale market for motorcycles declined by 42% in the first half to 1.9 million units. Astra's Honda motorcycle sales fell by 40% to 1.5 million units with an increase in market share from 75% to 77%. Three new models and six revamped models were launched.

-- Components business, Astra Otoparts, reported a net loss of US$20 million compared to a profit of US$17 million in the same period last year, mainly due to lower revenues from the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) and replacement market segments.

Financial Services

Net income fell by 25% to US$142 million, primarily due to increased loan loss provision s to cover higher non-performing loan losses in the consumer and heavy equipment-focused finance businesses . Key points were as follows:

-- Consumer finance businesses saw a 16% decrease in the amounts financed to US$2.4 billion. The net income contribution from the car-focused finance companies decreased by 24% to US$37 million while the contribution from the motorcycle-focused financing business fell by 25% to US$62 million, in both cases due to higher loan loss provisioning, as non-performing loans increased.

-- Heavy equipment-focused finance operations saw a 14% decrease in the amounts financed to US$125 million. The net income contribution from this segment fell by 30% to US$2 million.

-- General insurance company, Asuransi Astra Buana, reported a 4% decrease in net income to US$35 million, caused by lower underwriting income.

-- In May 2020, Astra completed the sale of its 44.56% stake in Permata Bank for a net consideration of US$1.1 billion.

Heavy Equipment, Mining, Construction and Energy

Net income decreased by 29% to US$160 million, mainly due to lower heavy equipment sales and mining contracting volume caused by weaker coal prices. Key points were as follows:

   --    United Tractors reported a 28% decrease in net income to US$275 million. 

-- Komatsu heavy equipment sales fell by 56% to 853 units, and parts and service revenues were also lower.

-- Mining contracting operations reported 10% lower overburden removal volume at 420 million bank cubic metres and 8% lower coal production at 56 million tonnes.

-- Coal mining subsidiaries achieved 14% higher coal sales at 5.6 million tonnes, including 869,000 tonnes of coking coal sales, but were affected by lower coal prices.

   --    Agincourt Resources saw 4% lower gold sales at 186,000 oz. 

-- General contractor, Acset Indonusa, reported a 38% lower net loss of US$17 million, mainly due to reduced funding costs following the collection of amounts due in respect of the Jakarta-Cikampek elevated toll road project.

Infrastructure and Logistics

Astra's infrastructure and logistics division reported a net loss of US$6 million for the first half, compared to a net profit of US$6 million for the same period in 2019, mainly due to lower toll road revenues. Key points were as follows:

-- Traffic volumes were 18% lower. Astra has 350km of operational toll roads along the Trans-Java network and in the Jakarta Outer Ring Road.

-- Serasi Autoraya's net income decreased by 62% to US$2 million mainly due to lower operating margins, despite a 3% increase in vehicles under contract at 22,900 units and 3% higher used car sales at 15,300 units.

Agribusiness

Net income increased significantly to US$21 million, due to higher crude palm oil prices, especially in the first quarter.

Direct Motor Interests

The Group's Direct Motor Interests contributed a loss of US$0.3 million, compared to a profit of US$33 million in the same period last year. Key points were as follows:

-- The contribution from Cycle & Carriage Singapore was 95% lower at US$1 million, as passenger car sales decreased by 61% to 3,200 units.

-- Tunas Ridean contributed US$3 million, 70% lower due to weaker performances across its automotive, consumer finance and rental operations.

-- Cycle & Carriage Bintang contributed a loss of US$3 million, compared to a loss of US$0.7 million last year. Unit sales fell by 46% and margins were also impacted.

Other Strategic Interests

The Group's Other Strategic Interests contributed a profit of US$28 million, 58% lower than the previous year. Key points were as follows:

-- Thaco contributed a profit of US$1 million, which included a true up adjustment of US$7 million in respect of its 2019 results. Excluding the adjustment, the profit contribution would have been US$8 million, 64% lower than the equivalent period last year. Unit sales fell by 30% and margins declined as a result of difficult market conditions, primarily due to the pandemic.

-- The contribution from Siam City Cement was US$12 million, 5% lower than the same period last year. This was mainly due to weaker domestic operations which were partially offset by an improved regional performance, primarily from Vietnam.

-- Refrigeration Electrical Engineering Corporation's contribution of US$3 million, based on its first quarter results, was 16% lower than the same period last year. Weaker performances from its power and water investments and its M&E business were partially offset by stronger real estate contributions.

-- Vinamilk produced a dividend income of US$12 million, compared to US$28 million in the same period last year, which included the 2019 interim dividend. The 2020 interim dividend will be recognised later in the year. Vinamilk reported a net profit of US$251 million in the first half, 3% up in local currency terms, as domestic dairy and exports continued to grow.

Corporate Costs

Corporate costs were US$61 million in the first half, compared to US$18 million in the same period last year. This was primarily due to a foreign exchange loss from the translation of foreign currency loans in the first half of 2020, compared to a gain in the previous year. This was partly offset by lower net financing charges and overheads in the first half of 2020.

Dividend

The Board has declared an interim one-tier tax exempt dividend of USc9 per share (2019: USc18 per share) for the half year ended 30th June 2020, reflecting the decline in performance during the period.

Outlook

The pandemic is expected to continue to adversely impact performance for at least the rest of 2020. The Board remains confident, however, that the Group's strong financial position and clear strategic priorities will position it well to deliver long-term growth.

 Jardine Cycle & Carriage Limited 
  Notes to the financial statements for the six months ended 30th 
  June 2020 
----------------------------------------------------------------- 
 
   1      Basis of preparation 

The financial statements are consistent with those set out in the 2019 audited accounts which have been prepared in accordance with Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (International) ("SFRS(I)") and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). There have been no changes to the accounting policies described in the 2019 audited accounts other than the following changes in relation to rent concessions and government grants. Other amendments which are effective in 2020 and relevant to the Group's operations, do not have a significant effect on the Group's accounting policies. The Group has not early adopted any other standard or amendments that have been issued but not yet effective.

COVID-19 Related Rent Concessions: Amendment to IFRS 16 Leases

The Group has applied the Amendment, which is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on and after 1st June 2020, for the Group's annual reporting period commencing 1st January 2020. Where the Group is a lessee, the practical expedient is applied to account for the change in lease payments resulting from rent concessions granted as a direct consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic and elects not to assess these concessions as lease modifications when all of the following conditions are met:

 
 (i)                the revised lease payments are substantially the same as, 
                     or less than, the consideration for the lease immediately 
                     preceding the change; 
 (ii)               reduction in lease payments relates to payment due on or 
                     before 30th June 2021; and 
 (iii)              there is no substantive change to the other terms and conditions 
                     of the lease. 
 

Rent concessions fulfilling the above conditions are recognised in the profit and loss over the period in which they cover.

Government grants

Grants from government are recognised at their fair values where there is reasonable assurance that the grants will be received, and the Group will comply with the conditions associated with the grants.

Grants that compensate the Group for expenses incurred are recognised in the profit and loss as other income on a systematic basis in the period in which the expenses are recognised. Unconditional grants are recognised in the profit and loss as other income when they become receivable. Grants related to assets are deducted in arriving at the carrying value of the related assets.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies. Estimates and judgments used in preparing the financial statements are regularly evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results.

The exchange rates used for translating assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date are US$1=S$1.3934 (2019: US$1=S$1.3473), US$1=RM4.281 (2019: US$1=RM4.0925), US$1=IDR14,302 (2019: US$1=IDR13,901), US$1=VND23,309 (2019: US$1=VND23,173) and US$1=THB30.874 (2019: US$1= THB29.863).

The exchange rates used for translating the results for the period are US$1=S$1.4011 (2019: US$1=S$1.3578), US$1=RM4.2694 (2019:US$1=RM4.1204), US$1=IDR14,786 (2019: US$1=IDR14,187), US$1=VND23,335 (2019: US$1=VND23,271) and US$1=THB31.735 (2019: US$1=THB31.4938).
