Targeting New Growth, This is ABMM's Business Expansion in 2026
PT ABM Investama Tbk (ABMM) is accelerating business expansion to strengthen operational performance throughout 2026. ABMM is relying on contributions from new mining assets and strengthening synergies between business lines to maintain competitiveness amid coal market dynamics.
ABM Investama Director, Hans Manoe, explained that one of the company’s current focuses is optimising the mine in Aceh, which has begun its debut sales.
“After the Aceh Mine successfully conducted its first coal sale in February 2026, the main focus is on gradually increasing production capacity and achieving stable monthly production volumes,” he told Kontan.co.id on Thursday (9/4).
Not stopping there, ABMM is also completing the permitting process for another mining asset in Central Kalimantan, targeted to commence commercial operations by the end of 2026.
“The acquisition and development of this mine is a strategic step to expand ABMM’s operations, expected to become a new source of growth for the company,” he clarified.
Furthermore, Hans stated that to maintain margins amid pressure from global commodity prices, ABMM continues to strengthen integration across business units to reduce operational costs.
He mentioned that this strategy includes exploring new technologies and innovations to enhance efficiency across the company’s entire value chain, from mining services to logistics.
Hans acknowledged that operational challenges and the weakening of coal prices over the past two years demand greater adaptability from the company.
“For 2026, ABMM targets performance recovery through stabilisation of production from new assets, improved operational efficiency across all business lines, and consistently maintaining cash flow resilience,” he concluded.
