▪️ The automotive segment grew by +5.9% YoY to IDR128.3tn, followed by a +12.2% YoY increase of financial services segment to IDR29.9tn.
▪️ ASII’s net profit escalated by +16.9% YoY to IDR33.8tn in FY23 (vs IDR28.9tn in FY22), reflecting 100%/116% of the MNCS/Consensus estimate.
▪️ We maintain BUY for ASII at a TP: IDR7,000 which implies a PE/PBV of 5.8x/0.8x in FY24E and 5.1x/0.7x in FY25F. Its stable financial position and strong brand positioning should be able to drive growth. Meanwhile, the “Korea and China car”, would be the main points of concern. At present, ASII is trading at the level of -1 STD PE Ratio (5-year average PE) with a current PE level of 6.2x.
