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=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
