CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
Overview
Jardine Cycle & Carriage produced a strong first quarter as the Group benefited from the continued growth of the Indonesian economy and improvements in the other countries in which it operates.
Performance
The Group recorded revenue of US$3.6 billion for the three months ended 31st March 2010, an increase of 69%. Underlying profit rose by 100% to US$173 million, while underlying earnings per share were 100% higher at US¢48.58. The profit attributable to shareholders for the quarter was US$178 million after accounting for a non-trading gain of US$5 million.
Astra's contribution to the Group's underlying profit doubled to US$162 million, Increased profits achieved in all its major businesses were enhanced further by a 26% improvement in the Rupiah exchange rate against the US Dollar compared to the first quarter of 2009. The underlying profit contribution from the Group's other motor interests was 79% higher at US$14 million.
The Group continues to benefit from strong operating cash flows and its consolidated net cash, excluding borrowings within Astra's financial services companies, was US$255 million at 31st March 2010 from US$64 million at the end of 2009. The net debt within Astra's financial services companies at US$1.7 billion was US$232 million higher than at the end of 2009. The Company had net debt of US$15 million at the quarter end.
The Board has not declared a dividend for the quarter ended 31st March 2010 (31st March 2009: Nil).
Group Review
Astra
Economic conditions in Indonesia in the first three months of 2010 were much improved compared with the challenging conditions existing at the start of 2009. Consumer demand benefited from the availability of financing at low interest rates, the strengthening of the Rupiah and a low inflation rate. These favourable economic factors, together with increases in commodity prices, led to improvements across all segments of Astra's business, enabling the group to report a net profit under Indonesian accounting standards equivalent to US$325 million for the quarter, up 61%.
Automotive and Financial Services
Astra's automotive and financial services businesses contributed a profit of US$127 million to the Group's underlying profit, an increase of 130%.
The wholesale motor vehicle market grew by 74% to 174,000 units, albeit from a low comparative base. Astra's motor vehicle sales rose by 71% to 99,000 units, representing a market share of 57%, a slight decline compared to the same period of 2009. The wholesale motorcycle market grew by 35% to 1.6 million units. Astra Honda Motor's sales improved by a lesser rate of 28% to 750,000 units in the face of strong competition, and resulted in a decline in market share from 48% to 45%. In 2009, legislation was introduced which permits provincial governments to increase certain vehicle related taxes. The date of implementation and the extent of the increases have, however, not yet been determined.
Automotive component manufacturer, Astra Otoparts, reported a 110% increase in net profit with improvements across most of its activities.
Astra's consumer finance activities recorded higher profits, following growth in their loan books. Astra's 45%-owned associate, Bank Permata, also reported an improvement in profit as it benefited from higher operating and non-operating income.
Natural Resources and Other
Firmer commodity prices enabled Astra's natural resources and other businesses to contribute an underlying profit of US$46 million to the Group, 46% higher than the first quarter of 2009.
In agribusiness, 80%-held Astra Agro Lestari recorded a 25% increase in reported profit as crude palm oil prices achieved were on average 19% higher. Palm oil production was, however, down 3% at 219,000 tonnes.
United Tractors, the group's 60%-owned heavy equipment and mining subsidiary, reported a 12% rise in profit. Sales of Komatsu heavy equipment recovered and were 94% higher at 1,200 units. Mining subsidiary, Pamapersada Nusantara, also continued to do well with an increase of 27% in both coal extracted and overburden removed.
Other Motor Interests
There were better performances from all the Group's other motor interests, leading to a 79% increase in underlying profit at US$14 million. In Singapore, the government has announced a significant reduction in vehicle registration quotas, which will impact sales.
Outlook
The current outlook is promising with Astra and the Group's other motor interests benefiting from continued economic growth. Competition in Astra's motorcycle business, however, remains intense, and potential changes to vehicle related taxes in Indonesia, if implemented, may dampen growth in the automotive sector.

Jardine Cycle & Carriage Limited Notes to the financial statements for the three months ended 31st March 2010 |
1 Basis of preparation
The financial statements are consistent with those set out in the 2009 audited accounts which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). There have been no changes to the accounting policies described in the 2009 audited accounts except for the change in accounting policy on owner-occupied properties and the adoption of the amendments and interpretations, described in the paragraphs below.
Under the Group's previous accounting policy, freehold land and buildings, and the building component of owner-occupied leasehold properties are carried at valuation under the revaluation model of IAS 16. With effect from 1st January 2010, owner-occupied land and buildings, both freehold and leasehold, are carried at amortised cost in accordance with the cost model under IAS 16.
The change enables the Group to provide more relevant information in its financial statements as it aligns the Group's accounting policy with that of a majority of companies listed on the Singapore Exchange. This change in policy has been applied retrospectively in the preparation of the 2010 quarterly and annual financial statements.
The following amendments and interpretations were adopted: |
|
IFRS 9 |
Financial Instruments |
IAS 24 |
Related Party Disclosures |
Amendment to IAS 17 |
Leases |
Amendment to IAS 39 |
Eligible Hedged Items |
IFRIC 17 |
Distributions of Non-cash Assets to Owners |
IFRIC 19 |
Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments |
Amendment to IFRIC 14 |
Prepayments of a Minimum Funding Requirement |
The change in accounting policy and the adoption of the amendments and interpretations did not have a material impact on the results of the Group.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies. Estimates and judgments used in preparing the financial statements are regularly evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results.
The exchange rates used for translating assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date are US$1=S$1.4012 (2009: US$1=S$1.5202), US$1=RM3.2735 (2009: US$1=RM3.6495), US$1=IDR9,115 (2009: US$1=IDR 11,575) and US$1=VND19,090 (2009: US$1=VND17,802).
The exchange rates used for translating the results for the period are US$1=S$1.4050 (2009: US$1=S$1.5229, US$1=RM3.3653 (2009: US$1=RM3.6490), US$1=IDR9,272 (2009: US$1=IDR 11,637) and US$1=VND18,871 (2009: US$1=VND17,587).
