#      The Group uses 'underlying profit attributable to shareholders' in
its internal financial reporting to distinguish between ongoing business
performance and non-trading items, as more fully described in Note 6 to the
condensed financial statements. Management considers this to be a key
performance measurement which enhances the understanding of the Group's
underlying business performances.

^       Included in 'non-trading items' are unrealised gain/losses
arising from the revaluation of the Group's equity investments.

 

 

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

 

Overview

 

The performance of Jardine Cycle & Carriage ("JC&C" or "the Group") in
2021 recovered substantially compared to 2020, reflecting improvements across
all parts of the portfolio. The Group's results were, however, 9% lower than
in 2019, prior to the start of the pandemic.

 

Astra contributed US$655 million to the Group's underlying profit, compared to
US$309 million in the previous year, reflecting improved performances
particularly from its automotive, financial services, heavy equipment and
mining, and agribusiness operations.

 

Direct Motor Interests contributed an underlying profit of US$39 million,
compared to US$14 million in the previous year, mainly due to improved
contributions from Cycle & Carriage Singapore and Tunas Ridean.

 

Other Strategic Interests contributed an underlying profit of US$151 million,
26% up from the previous year, mainly due to improved contributions from
THACO's automotive operations.

 

Corporate costs increased from US$14 million in 2020 to US$59 million,
primarily due to the impact on costs of the translation of foreign currency
loans, which led to a foreign exchange loss of US$28 million in 2021, compared
to a gain of US$24 million in the previous year.

 

The Group's underlying profit attributable to shareholders was 83% higher than
the previous year at US$786 million. After accounting for non-trading items,
profit attributable to shareholders was US$661 million, 22% higher than the
previous year. The non-trading items recorded in the year mainly comprised
unrealised fair value losses related to non-current investments.

 

The Group's financial position remains strong, with net asset value per share
of US$18.64 at the year-end, 6% higher than at the end of 2020. Consolidated
net cash, excluding Astra's financial services subsidiaries, was US$0.8
billion at the end of December 2021, compared to consolidated net debt of
US$0.9 billion at the end of 2020, mainly due to improved operating cash
flows. Net debt within Astra's financial services subsidiaries decreased from
US$2.8 billion to US$2.7 billion.

 

JC&C corporate net debt was US$1.5 billion, similar to the previous
year-end.

 

Strategic Developments

 

Astra

 

Over the past year, Astra has made several strategic investments in new
businesses, including US$35 million in Halodoc, a healthcare-based technology
platform, as part of its strategic focus on building expertise in the
healthcare sector.

 

Astra also entered into several transactions involving its existing
businesses. In its infrastructure business, Astra acquired a 49% stake in
Jasamarga Pandaan Malang, the operator of the 38.5km Pandaan-Malang toll road,
one of the most important toll roads in East Java, for US$95 million.  It
also acquired an additional 14% stake in Marga Lingkar Jakarta, the operator
of the 7.7km Kebon Jeruk- Ulujami toll road as part of the Jakarta Outer Ring
Road, for US$19 million, taking its ownership to 49%. These acquisitions bring
Astra's total interests in toll roads to 396km.

 

In Astra's property business, Astra Land Indonesia ("ALI"), Astra's 50:50
joint venture with Hongkong Land, acquired the remaining 33% stake in Astra
Modern Land, the developer of the Asya residential township in East Jakarta,
which it did not already own for US$70 million in December 2021.

 

Finally, in February 2022, ALI established a joint venture with LOGOS to
develop and manage modern logistics warehouses in Indonesia.

 

 

Direct Motor Interests

 

During the year, JC&C increased its interest in Cycle & Carriage
Bintang from 59.1% to 89.0% for around US$18 million, through a series of
on-market purchases and acceptances under its Voluntary General Offer. In June
2021, JC&C also entered into an agreement to acquire the remaining 30%
stake that it did not own in Republic Auto, a used car business in Singapore,
for approximately US$22 million.

 

Other Strategic Interests

 

During the year, JC&C increased its interest in REE from 29.8% to 31.0%
through a series of on-market purchases, for around US$10 million.

 

Dividends

 

The Board is recommending a final one-tier tax-exempt dividend of US¢62 per
share (2020: US¢34 per share) which, together with the interim dividend of
US¢18 per share (2020: US¢9 per share), will produce a total dividend for
the year of US¢80 per share (2020: US¢43 per share), 86% higher than 2020.

 

People

 

On behalf of the Board, I would like to recognise our 240,000 employees across
the region for their continuing hard work and efforts, which have enabled the
Group to continue to operate despite the challenging environment created by
the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

Ms Vimala Menon, the Lead Independent Director and Chairperson of the Audit
Committee, retired from the Board in December 2021. Mr Michael Kok, Chairman
of the Remuneration Committee, will be retiring from the Board in March 2022.
On behalf of the Board, I would like to record our appreciation and thank
Vimala and Michael for their valuable contributions to the Group.

 

I am delighted to welcome Mr Samuel Tsien, who joined the Board in October
2021 as an independent director. Samuel has many years of experience in the
banking and finance sectors, and we look forward to the contribution he will
bring to the Group.

 

Outlook

 

The pandemic is expected to remain a significant risk to performance in 2022,
but the Group is optimistic about the long-term economic prospects of
Southeast Asia, and is well placed to benefit from its growth opportunities.

Chairman

 

 

 

GROUP MANAGING DIRECTOR'S REVIEW

Group Review

 

The Group's business comprises three pillars: (i) Astra; (ii) Direct Motor
Interests ("DMI"), which consists of the Group's non-Astra automotive
businesses; and (iii) Other Strategic Interests.  The contribution to
JC&C's underlying profit attributable to shareholders by business pillar
was as follows:

 

                                      Contribution to JC&C's underlying profit
                                      Year ended 31st December

Astra

 

Astra contributed US$655 million to JC&C's underlying profit, compared to
US$309 million in the previous year. Under Indonesian accounting standards,
Astra reported a net income equivalent to US$1.4 billion, reflecting improved
performances particularly from its automotive, financial services, heavy
equipment and mining, and agribusiness operations.

 

Automotive

 

Net income increased significantly to US$509 million in 2021, mainly due to
the recovery from the negative impact in 2020 of the pandemic and related
containment measures. Sales volumes increased during the year, particularly in
the car segment, which benefited from temporary luxury sales tax incentives.
Key points were as follows:

 

 ·         The wholesale car market increased by 67% to 887,000 units. Astra's car sales
           were 81% higher at 489,000 units, with its market share increasing from 51% to
           55%.
 ·         The wholesale market for motorcycles increased by 38% to 5.1 million units.
           Astra's Honda motorcycle sales grew 36% to 3.9 million units, but saw a slight
           decrease in market share from 79% to 78%.
 ·         Components business, Astra Otoparts, reported a net profit of US$43 million
           compared to a profit of less than US$1 million last year, mainly due to higher
           revenues from the original equipment manufacturer, replacement market and
           export segments.

 

 

Financial Services

 

Net income increased by 49% to US$345 million, due to higher contributions
from the consumer finance and general insurance businesses. Key points were as
follows:

 

 ·         Consumer finance businesses saw a 25% increase in the amounts financed to
           US$5.8 billion. The net income contribution from the car-focused finance
           companies increased by 70% to US$98 million, and the contribution from the
           motorcycle-focused financing business increased by 66% to US$174 million. Both
           increases were mainly due to lower loan loss provisioning.
 ·         Heavy equipment-focused finance operations saw an 88% increase in the amounts
           financed to US$467 million. The net income contribution from this business
           increased by 85% to US$5 million.
 ·         General insurance company, Asuransi Astra Buana, reported a 21% increase in
           net income to US$77 million, due to higher investment and underwriting income.

 

 

Heavy Equipment, Mining, Construction & Energy

 

Net income increased by 79% to US$427 million, mainly due to higher Komatsu
heavy equipment sales and improved coal prices. Key points were as follows:

 

 ·         United Tractors reported a 71% increase in net income to US$718 million.
 ·         Komatsu heavy equipment sales increased by 97% to 3,088 units.
 ·         Mining contracting operations reported 3% higher overburden removal volume at
           852 million bank cubic metres, while coal production was 1% higher at 116
           million tonnes.
 ·         Coal mining subsidiaries achieved 3% higher coal sales at 9 million tonnes,
           including 2.4 million tonnes of metallurgical coal.
 ·         Agincourt Resources saw 3% higher gold sales at 330,000 oz.
 ·         General contractor, Acset Indonusa, reported a net loss of US$49 million,
           mainly due to the slowdown of several ongoing projects and reduced
           construction project opportunities during the pandemic.

 

 

Agribusiness

 

Net income from Agribusiness increased significantly to US$110 million, mainly
as a result of a 32% increase in average crude palm oil prices.

 

Infrastructure & Logistics

 

Astra's infrastructure and logistics division reported a net profit of US$5
million, 53% higher than last year, mainly due to improved performances in its
toll road and Serasi Autoraya operations.  Key points were as follows:

 

 ·         Toll road revenues were 25% higher. Astra has 396km of operational toll roads
           along the Trans-Java network and in the Jakarta Outer Ring Road.
 ·         Serasi Autoraya's net income increased by 26% to US$10 million, mainly due to
           improved operating margins and a 5% increase in the number of vehicles under
           contract to 24,300 units, despite lower used car sales.

 

 

Direct Motor Interests

 

The Group's Direct Motor Interests contributed US$39 million to JC&C's
underlying profit, compared to US$14 million in the previous year.  Key
points were as follows:

 

 ·         Cycle & Carriage Singapore contributed US$29 million, 58% up from the
           previous year, supported by higher profits from its premium and used car
           operations, which were less impacted than its mass market operations by high
           COE prices. Total passenger car sales fell 10% to 6,783 units, with market
           share decreased from 17% to 15%.
 ·         In Indonesia, Tunas Ridean contributed US$16 million, compared to US$1 million
           last year, mainly due to higher profits from its automotive and financial
           services businesses.
 ·         Cycle & Carriage Bintang in Malaysia contributed a profit of US$1 million,
           compared to a loss of US$1 million in the previous year.

 

 

Other Strategic Interests

 

Other Strategic Interests contributed US$151 million, 26% up on the previous
year. Key points were as follows:

 

 ·         THACO contributed a profit of US$62 million, 60% higher than the previous
           year, mainly due to stronger automotive results, as margins benefited from an
           improved sales mix which offset a 5% decline in unit sales.
 ·         REE's contribution of US$22 million was 8% higher than the previous year,
           mainly due to improved performances from its power and water investments as a
           result of favourable hydrography.
 ·         The contribution from Siam City Cement ("SCCC") was US$28 million, 18% up from
           last year, mainly due to a reduction in corporate tax rates in respect of its
           Sri Lanka operations. Excluding the favourable tax impact, SCCC's contribution
           would have been flat, with the benefit of continued cost-saving initiatives
           offset by continued lower cement volumes, as market demand was affected by the
           pandemic, and, reduced margins as a result of an increase in coal prices.
 ·         The Group's investment in Vinamilk delivered a dividend income of US$39
           million. Vinamilk reported a 5% decrease in net profit mainly due to higher
           input and transportation costs.

 

 

Corporate Costs

 

Corporate costs increased from US$14 million in 2020 to US$59 million,
primarily due to the impact on costs of the translation of foreign currency
loans, which led to a foreign exchange loss of US$28 million in 2021, compared
to a gain of US$24 million in the previous year.

 

Summary

 

We saw a strong recovery across the JC&C portfolio in 2021 and I am
encouraged that we have achieved results which are close to the Group's
pre-pandemic 2019 performance. Overall, we are pleased that the portfolio has
demonstrated resilience during these challenging times.

Interpretations and amendments to published standard effective in 2021

 

On 1st January 2021, the Group has adopted the new or amended IFRS and
Interpretations of IFRS that are mandatory for application for the financial
year. Changes to the Group's accounting policies have been made as required,
in accordance with the transitional provisions in the respective IFRS and
Interpretations of IFRS.

 

The adoption of these new or amended IFRS and Interpretations of IFRS did not
result in substantial changes to the Group's accounting policies and had no
material effect on the amounts reported for the current or prior financial
years.

 

Interest Rate Benchmark Reform - Phase 2: Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS
7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 (effective from 1st January 2021)

 

The amendments provide practical expedient from certain requirements under
IFRSs as a result of the reform which affect the measurement of financial
assets, financial liabilities and lease liabilities, and a number of reliefs
for hedging relationships. The Group applied the amendments from 1st January
2021 and there is no significant impact on the Group's consolidated financial
statements.

 

COVID-19 Related Rent Concessions beyond 30th June 2021: Amendment to IFRS 16
Leases (effective from 1st April 2021)

 

The Group adopted and applied the practical expedient of the Covid-19 Related
Rent Concessions: Amendment to IFRS 16 Leases, published in June 2020 ("2020
amendment"), in the 2020 annual financial statements. The 2021 amendment
extends the practical expedient in the 2020 amendment to eligible lease
payments due on or before 30th June 2022. By using the 2021 amendment, the
Group continues to apply the practical expedient consistently to all lease
contracts with similar characteristics and in similar circumstances, and does
not assess these concessions as lease modifications.

 

Critical accounting estimates and judgements

 

The preparation of the condensed interim financial statements require
management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the
application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these
estimates.

 

In preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the
significant judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting
policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those
that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31st
December 2021.

Fair value estimation

 

a)    Financial instruments that are measured at fair value

For financial instruments that are measured at fair value in the balance
sheet, the corresponding fair value measurements are disclosed by level of the
following fair value measurement hierarchy:

 

Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities ("quoted prices in active markets")

The fair values of listed securities and bonds are based on quoted prices in
active markets at the balance sheet date. The quoted market price used for
listed investments held by the Group is the current bid price.

 

Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable for the
asset or liability, either directly or indirectly ("observable current market
transactions")

The fair values of derivative financial instruments are determined using rates
quoted by the Group's bankers at the balance sheet date. The rates for
interest rate swaps and caps, cross-currency swaps and forward foreign
exchange contracts are calculated by reference to the market interest rates
and foreign exchange rates.

 

Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data
("unobservable inputs")

The fair values of other unlisted equity investments are determined using
valuation techniques by reference to observable current market transactions or
the market prices of the underlying investments with certain degree of
entity-specific estimates or discounted cash flows by projecting the cash
inflows from these investments.

 

There were no changes in valuation techniques during the year.

 

The table below analyses the Group's financial instruments carried at fair
value, by the levels in the fair value measurement hierarchy.

The fair values of current debtors, bank balances and other liquid funds,
current creditors, current borrowings and current lease liabilities of the
Group and the Company are assumed to approximate their carrying amounts due to
the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities.

 

The fair values of long-term borrowings disclosed are based on market prices
or are estimated using the expected future payments discounted at market
interest rates. The fair values of non-current lease liabilities are estimated
using the expected future payments discounted at market interest rates.
