MAKASSAR (ISL News) - PT Pelindo Jasa Maritim (PJM) recorded solid financial performance throughout the first half of 2026, posting a doubling of net profit after tax compared to the same period the previous year. This achievement also exceeded the target set in the Company's Work Plan and Budget (RKAP) for the first half of 2026, with realization reaching 44% above the established target.
This growth was supported by a 14% year-on-year (YoY) increase in operating revenue, amidst well-managed operating expenses, which helped boost the company's profitability. PJM's EBITDA also increased 39% (YoY) in the first half of 2026, reflecting the company's increasingly strong operational performance.
PT Pelindo Jasa Maritim Corporate Secretary, Tubagus Patrick, said that this achievement was the result of the company's consistency in strengthening core services, increasing operational efficiency, and optimizing business synergies within the PJM Group.
"The achievements in the first half of 2026 demonstrate that the company's strategy of strengthening marine services, developing port services, and optimizing the contribution of its subsidiaries has resulted in healthy and sustainable growth. Going forward, we will continue to maintain this momentum by improving service quality, accelerating strategic program execution, and strengthening corporate governance," said Tubagus Patrick.
The contribution to revenue growth came primarily from increased pilotage and towing services at the Terminal for Own Interest (TUKS), growth in the spare parts and maintenance procurement business, increased electricity production at subsidiaries, and increased work for electrical contractors.
Entering Semester II 2026, PJM will continue to focus on accelerating the realization of strategic investments, increasing service productivity, strengthening synergies between entities, and developing maritime service innovations to support national logistics efficiency and strengthen the competitiveness of Indonesian ports.
As a subsidiary engaged in the marine sector, port equipment services (Equipments), shipyard services, dredging (dredging solution), and port utility services (Port Services), PT Pelindo Jasa Maritim is committed to providing reliable, safe, and sustainable services to support national maritime connectivity while creating added value for all stakeholders.
