        "summary": "PT Indonesia Asahan Aluminium (Inalum) reported a 15% increase in net profit for 2025, reaching US$142.8 million (equivalent to Rp2.44 trillion), driven by higher production volumes and maintained operational efficiency amid global market volatility. The company highlighted consistent revenue growth, significant EBITDA improvements, and positive financial ratios, including a 6% ROA and 7% ROE, as part of its consolidation and acceleration efforts. Looking ahead to 2026, Inalum is shifting focus to executing downstream projects, including the near-completion of the Smelter Grade Alumina Refinery Phase 1 and a US$2.4 billion investment in the Mempawah Smelter 2, supported by energy synergies with PT Bukit Asam Tbk to enhance national aluminium production capacity.",

According to her, the operational\nstability achieved last year forms the basis for the company to\nundertake large-scale production capacity expansion starting this year.\n\u201cFrom a financial perspective, revenue has grown consistently, EBITDA\nhas increased significantly, and net profit for 2025 rose 15%\nyear-on-year,\u201d she stated during the Hearing with Commission XII of the\nHouse of Representatives (DPR RI) in Jakarta, quoted on Wednesday\n(15\/4\/2026). In addition to net profit, Inalum recorded consistent\nrevenue growth and a significant increase in EBITDA. The company\u2019s\nfinancial ratios also show a positive trend, with return on assets (ROA)\nrising to 6% and return on equity (ROE) reaching 7%. \u201cAlhamdulillah,\n2025 was a year of consolidation and acceleration for Inalum. In 2025,\nwe focused on increasing production, operational efficiency, and\nstrengthening business fundamentals, including the addition of new\nprojects,\u201d she added. Entering 2026, the company is shifting its focus\nfrom the planning stage to the execution phase of downstream projects\nthat have been included in the list of National Strategic Projects\n(PSN). One of the main projects is Phase 1 of the Smelter Grade Alumina\nRefinery (SGAR), with construction progress (EPC) reaching 98.56%. \u201cFor\nour own business development in 2026, entering 2026, our focus is on\naccelerating downstream projects, strengthening production capacity, and\nintegrating the supply chain. This year is the year of execution, not\nplanning anymore,\u201d she said. Inalum is also preparing the development of\nthe 2 Mempawah Smelter with an investment value of US$2.4 billion to\nincrease production capacity to 600,000 tonnes of aluminium per year. To\nsupport this project, the company is finalising a long-term energy\nsupply cooperation (power solution) with PT Bukit Asam Tbk (PTBA). \u201cThe\nsynergy between Inalum, PLN, and related parties, in this case PTBA, can\nbe realised because one of the successes of the Mempawah smelter project\nis the captive power plant for the aluminium smelter. Without this\nsupport, downstream development would progress more slowly than the\nnational targets,\u201d Melati concluded.<\/p>",
