PT Adaro Andalan Indonesia Tbk (AADI), a prominent coal producer owned by conglomerate Garibaldi Thohir, also known as Boy Thohir, is set to distribute a significant cash dividend from its 2025 fiscal year earnings. This decision was officially approved during the company’s annual general meeting of shareholders (AGMS) held on Friday, May 22.

According to official disclosures made to the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) on Tuesday, May 26, AADI’s management has announced a total dividend payout of US$200 million.

AADI’s First Quarter 2026 Performance Sees Pressure, Profit Declines by 27%

In its financial report for the first quarter of 2026, AADI experienced a 27.02% decrease in net profit, amounting to US$143.03 million, or approximately Rp 2.43 trillion. This is a notable drop compared to the US$195.99 million in net profit recorded during the same period in the previous year.

The decline in profit is consistent with a decrease in the company’s revenue, which fell to US$1.04 billion from US$1.16 billion in Q1 2025. AADI’s revenue streams primarily consist of coal and logistics services to third parties, generating US$928.14 million, along with other income totaling US$3.57 million. These figures represent a contraction from the previous year’s earnings of US$1.05 billion.

Revenue from related parties also saw a downturn, with coal and logistics sales contributing US$108.9 million and other income at US$3.56 million. This combined amount is lower than the US$31.63 million recorded in the prior year. Despite the revenue contraction, AADI’s cost of revenue also saw a reduction, decreasing to US$786.63 million from US$817.02 million in the same period last year.

Meanwhile, AADI’s stock closed in positive territory on Tuesday, May 26. Its share price rose by 0.91% to Rp 8,325. On a year-to-date (YTD) basis, this energy stock has seen a significant increase of 19.35%.
