RMKE recorded Rp 146.5 billion ($8.8 million), of which 75.2 percent came from services. RMKE also posted Rp 87.6 billion in net profit, thereby reflecting the company's ability to maintain profitability amidst challenging market conditions.  

The 4.2 percent equity growth was driven by margin improvement, which maintained the company's financial health. RMKE maintained a Debt-to-Equity Ratio (DER) of 0.16 times, with a 34.3% reduction in financial debt, underscoring the company's commitment to financial stability.

"Although the coal market is facing significant challenges, RMKE remains focused on optimizing operations and diversifying revenue. Our ability to maintain strong financial ratios, increase service revenue, and achieve operational efficiency demonstrates our commitment to delivering value to our stakeholders, even in challenging conditions," RMKE's president director Vincent Saputra said.

"With the completion of this coal hauling road facility, which will connect to several potential mines in South Sumatra, we remain optimistic that RMKE's performance will continue to grow," Vincent said.
