Major Indonesian corporations reported strong financial performance for the first half of 2026.

In the banking sector, Bank Syariah Indonesia (BSI) recorded a net profit of Rp4.15 trillion, an 11% year-on-year increase driven largely by a 38% surge in fee-based income and significant growth in gold-related products. 

PT Bank Rakyat Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (BRI) reported a consolidated net profit of Rp31.2 trillion, marking a 17.5% increase attributed to improved asset quality and cost efficiency. BRI President Director Hery Gunardi attributed this performance to the bank’s transformation agenda, focusing on digitalization and prudent risk management. Key drivers included net interest income of Rp80.53 trillion and a reduction in the cost of funds from 3% to 2.4%. Additionally, the bank’s non-performing loan (NPL) ratio decreased to approximately 2.9%–3.1%, while total assets grew by 11.7% year-on-year to Rp2,352 trillion, supported by credit expansion in the MSME segment.

Further details on BRI’s performance highlight the ‘BRIvolution Reignite’ transformation program and a 16.2% growth in credit and financing to Rp1,646 trillion. Approximately 75.1% of this credit was directed toward the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME) segment. Between January and June 2026, the bank distributed Rp103.8 trillion in People's Business Credit (KUR) to over 2 million debtors. The bank also improved its funding structure, with the Current Account Savings Account (CASA) ratio rising to 67.6%.

Other notable corporate earnings included PT Bakrie & Brothers Tbk (BNBR), which saw operating profits rise by 283.21% to Rp301.53 billion, and PT Adaro Andalan Indonesia Tbk (AADI), which reported a net profit of $524.43 million, supported by coal mining and trading activities.
