Astra International: Company Profile of a Leading Indonesian Conglomerate

Astra International's financial figures were not immune to the effects of international financial turmoil in 2013. The company's performance in the agribusiness, heavy equipment and mining businesses were hurt by soft commodity prices, while the automotive business segment saw price hikes of raw materials, components and completely built-up (CBU) products with rupiah depreciation against the US dollar in 2013. Astra's financial services business suffered margin compression as the central bank of Indonesia raised its key interest rate (BI rate) and lower liquidity gradually dominated the global financial markets in the second half of 2013.

But because of the company's diverse business portfolio, it could sustain overall performance. Over 2013, the company posted a revenue growth of 3 percent to IDR 193.9 trillion (USD $17.2 billion) from 2012. Net income, however, declined slightly (0.02 percent) to IDR 19.4 trillion (USD $1.7 billion), due to higher employee salaries and selling expenses.
