PT Bank Negara Indonesia (Persero) Tbk, Indonesia’s state-owned bank, has approved a cash dividend distribution of IDR 13.03 trillion at its Annual General Meeting of Shareholders for the 2025 financial year. The dividend represents 65 per cent of the consolidated net profit attributable to the parent entity, which stood at IDR 20.04 trillion.

Corporate Secretary Okki Rushartomo stated that the decision reflects the company’s commitment to providing optimal value to shareholders whilst maintaining robust fundamentals through strengthened capital structure.

“The strategic decisions approved at this Annual General Meeting are part of efforts to maintain sustained performance and strengthen the company’s capital foundation going forward,” Rushartomo said in Jakarta on Tuesday, 10 March 2026.

The shareholders also approved the allocation of the remaining 35 per cent of net profit, approximately IDR 7.01 trillion, as retained earnings. These funds will support business expansion and strengthen BNI’s capital capacity amid the dynamic banking sector environment.

In addition to the dividend distribution, the meeting approved a share buyback programme with a maximum transaction value of IDR 905.48 billion, inclusive of transaction costs. The buyback will be conducted in accordance with applicable capital market regulations and requirements.

Rushartomo explained that the buyback initiative serves as an instrument to maintain stock price stability whilst providing flexibility in corporate capital management. “The buyback decision demonstrates management’s confidence in the company’s long-term prospects whilst providing flexibility in strengthening capitalisation,” he said.

Repurchased shares will be held as treasury stock and may subsequently be resold on the Indonesia Stock Exchange or off-market. The shares may also be utilised for the Employee and Executive Share Ownership Programme.

The shareholders also approved amendments to the company’s bylaws regarding the reclassification of 223,783,877 Series B shares held by BP BUMN into Series A Dwiwarna shares. This reclassification aligns with the requirements of Law Number 16 of 2025, which represents the fourth amendment to Law Number 19 of 2003 on State-Owned Enterprises.
