2026 HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND DIVIDEND ANNOUNCEMENT

Highlights

●     Underlying profit 11% lower at US$473 million, net profit 2% down at US$363 million

●     Recycled capital of US$334 million in the first half, reducing corporate net debt

●     Interim cash dividend of US¢28 per share, unchanged from 2025

●     Proposed special dividend of approximately US¢73 per share, comprising a cash distribution and a distribution-in-specie of remaining shares in Toyota Motor Corporation ("TMC")

"For the first half of 2026, we posted an 11% decrease in underlying profit primarily due to lower business contributions from portfolio companies, reduced dividend income and the absence of non-recurring foreign exchange gains recognised in the prior year period. Overall contributions from Indonesia and Singapore were lower, while contributions from Vietnam continued to deliver strong improvements.

The operating environment in Indonesia is expected to continue facing macroeconomic headwinds for the remainder of the year. Nevertheless, we are confident in Astra's and Indonesia's fundamentals for the long-term and are committed to working with Astra to drive performance. With respect to our Vietnam portfolio, we continue to be positive on THACO and REE's sustained growth trajectory, amid favourable economic conditions. 

The previously announced strategic review at JC&C reaffirmed that our key portfolio companies remain the primary drivers of value creation and are well positioned to deliver their growth ambitions. As an intermediate holding company, JC&C will continue to support their development while adopting a more disciplined approach to capital allocation to deliver shareholder returns. Consistent with this strategic direction, JC&C is proposing a change of name to "Jardine Matheson Southeast Asia Limited" to better reflect its focus and role within the wider Jardine Matheson Group.

The Board is also proposing a special dividend of approximately US¢73 per share, comprising a cash distribution funded from the proceeds of the TMC divestment and a distribution in specie of our remaining shares in TMC. This reflects our commitment to using the most appropriate capital allocation tools to deliver value for shareholders.

Looking ahead, we will continue to focus on supporting our portfolio companies to improve investment and financial performance, while evaluating opportunities to deliver value from our portfolio in a manner consistent with our strategic objectives."

Freddy Lee, Chief Executive Officer

CEO'S STATEMENT

Strategic updates

Jardine Cycle & Carriage ("JC&C" or "the Group") wishes to provide an update of its strategic review, which focused on delivering shareholder value from its Southeast Asia-focused portfolio. The review also considered the broader strategic priorities of its controlling shareholder Jardine Matheson, as outlined at its recent Investor Day, as well as JC&C's role as its intermediate holding company in the region.

The review reaffirmed that the Group's core portfolio companies have credible growth strategies and are well positioned to execute these plans independently, supported by their own operating capabilities, balance sheets and cash generation. Shareholder value is created principally within the Group's underlying portfolio companies. As an intermediate holding company, JC&C's role is to actively steward the portfolio and ensure that value is delivered to all shareholders through disciplined capital allocation using the most appropriate mechanism available at the time.

To better reflect this strategic focus, the Board proposes to rename JC&C to "Jardine Matheson Southeast Asia Limited", subject to the necessary shareholder and regulatory approvals, further details of which will be announced.

Consistent with this philosophy, the Group will proactively review from time to time the portfolio against its strategic and investment criteria, with the objective of ensuring that capital remains invested in businesses that offer the most compelling value creation opportunities.

Over the past two years, the Group has demonstrated this disciplined approach through continued portfolio actions. During the first half of 2026, the Group divested its partial interests in Vinamilk and TMC for US$188 million and US$146 million, respectively. The proceeds from the Vinamilk divestment were applied towards reducing corporate net debt. These transactions have realised value for shareholders and strengthened the Group's financial position.

The special dividend announced today, comprising a distribution in specie of our remaining TMC shares and a cash distribution, reflects our sharpened capital allocation philosophy. Distributions in specie are an important capital management tool that provide the opportunity for shareholders to choose to participate directly in the ownership and future value of the underlying investment or realise that investment for cash.

Looking ahead, as the portfolio is reshaped through opportunities to sharpen the focus of and improve returns from the portfolio, the Group will carefully evaluate its capital structure, including as a priority the reduction of corporate net debt.

Performance

For the first six months of 2026, the Group recorded a 11% decline in underlying profit to US$473 million. Total business contributions were 7% down, reflecting lower contributions from Indonesia where Astra's mining solutions and heavy equipment businesses experienced challenging conditions. There was also a lower contribution from Cycle & Carriage in Singapore. In addition, the Group's dividend income from Vinamilk was lower due to the Group's reduced stake. These were partly offset by improved contributions from THACO and REE in Vietnam. Prior period results also benefitted from foreign exchange gains from the translation of foreign currency loans at the JC&C corporate level, which did not recur in the current period.

After accounting for net non-trading losses, arising mainly from fair value losses from investments which were higher in the prior period, the Group's profit attributable to shareholders was 2% lower at US$363 million.

The Group's consolidated net debt position, excluding the net borrowings from Astra's financial services subsidiaries, was US$559 million at the end of June 2026, compared to US$44 million at the end of 2025. Net debt within Astra's financial services subsidiaries was US$3.7 billion. JC&C corporate net debt decreased from US$577 million to US$286 million, mainly due to the proceeds from the partial divestment of its interests in Vinamilk and TMC in the current period.

Interim and special dividends

The Board has declared an interim one-tier tax-exempt dividend of US¢28 per share (2025: US¢28 per share) for the half-year ended 30th June 2026.

The Board is also pleased to propose a special dividend of approximately US¢73 per share, comprising a cash distribution of US¢37 and a distribution-in-specie of approximately US¢36, based on the current value of JC&C's TMC shares as of 29 July 2026. The cash distribution represents the proceeds received from JC&C's divestment of TMC shares earlier in April, while the distribution-in-specie enables shareholders to choose whether to directly own an interest in or realise the value from the Group's remaining investment in TMC shares.

The special dividend will be subject to shareholders' approval in an extraordinary general meeting, further details of which will be announced.

If the special dividend is approved by shareholders, it will bring total dividends to approximately US¢101 per share for this period, based on the current value of TMC shares.

INDONESIA

The Group's Indonesian businesses contributed US$427 million to its underlying profit, down 8%.

(A) Astra

Astra's contribution of US$417 million to JC&C's underlying profit is 9% down from last year (4% down in Rp terms), reflecting lower earnings mainly from its mining solutions and heavy equipment businesses. Under Indonesian accounting standards, Astra reported a net income excluding non-recurring charges equivalent to US$863 million.

Astra and United Tractors had completed a total of Rp7.4tn (US$440 million) of share buybacks as at end of June 2026, underscoring their commitment to improving total shareholder returns. Astra and United Tractors further announced a new share buyback programme of up to Rp8tn (US$448 million) and up to Rp2tn (US$112 million) in June and July, respectively, reaffirming its disciplined capital allocation framework and commitment to enhancing long-term shareholder returns.

Automotive

Net income was 9% higher at US$343 million, largely supported by improved performances from the car sales and component businesses.

●     The motorcycle market increased by 1% to 3.1 million units. Astra's sales were also 1% higher, with a strong market share of 77%.

●     The wholesale car market increased by 16% to 437,000 units, while Astra's sales increased by 10%. Toyota and Daihatsu continued their leadership as the first and second best-selling car brands in Indonesia, with Astra's market share maintained at 51%.

●     Components business Astra Otoparts reported a 23% increase in net income to US$53 million, with higher contributions from all segments.

●     The used car business OLXmobbi booked a 4% increase in sales to 15,700 units.

●     The transportation and logistics solutions business Serasi Autoraya recorded a 13% increase in vehicles under contract to 29,200 units.

Financial Services

Net income increased by 6% to US$269 million, due to higher contributions from Astra's consumer finance businesses on larger loan portfolios.

●     Consumer finance businesses saw a 10% increase in the amounts financed to US$3.6 billion, driven by growth in automotive and multi-cycle financing. The net income contribution from Astra's car-focused finance companies increased by 6% to US$70 million, and the contribution from Astra's motorcycle-focused financing business increased by 4% to US$139 million.

●     The insurance businesses reported a 7% increase in net income to US$53 million, mainly due to higher operating and investment income.

Mining Solutions and Heavy Equipment

Net income excluding various non-recurring charges decreased by 46% to US$157 million, mainly due to minimal gold sales from the gold mining operations, and a lower national coal production quota impacting coal mining services, heavy equipment and coal mining volumes. 

●     The gold mine operations recorded lower gold sales at 23,000 oz, compared to 125,000 oz during the same period last year, due to the absence of gold sales from the Martabe mine during the temporary halt of its operations. The Martabe mine has resumed operations in the second quarter.

●     Mining services operations recorded a 10% decline in overburden removal volume at 481 million bank cubic metres.

●     Komatsu heavy equipment sales decreased by 27% to 1,994 units, mainly due to lower demand in the mining sector.

●     Coal mining subsidiaries recorded 10% lower own coal sales of 6 million tonnes.

Others

Net income excluding various non-recurring charges rose by 31% to US$94 million, mainly driven by improved agribusiness performance supported by higher crude palm oil price and sales volume, as well as improved property performance following contributions from newly acquired industrial warehouse platform.

(B)Tunas Ridean

Tunas Ridean contributed US$10 million, 7% higher than last year, mainly due to improved profits from its automotive and consumer finance operations.

VIETNAM

Vietnam contributed US$43 million to the Group's underlying profit. This includes a lower dividend income recognised from Vinamilk in the current period, following the divestment of most of its holdings since the end of 2025. Excluding the Vinamilk dividend income impact, the total contributions from THACO and REE would be US$39 million, 47% higher.

(A) THACO

THACO contributed US$28 million, 65% higher than the previous year. This was mainly due to a strong result from its real estate business with an increase in properties sold. The automotive business achieved a 9% increase in sales volume, driven by growth in both the passenger car and commercial vehicle segments. However, greater competitive pressure impacted its margins, and its market share declined to 14%. The agricultural business doubled its sales volume of bananas during this period.

(B) REE

REE contributed US$11 million, 15% higher than the previous year due to higher earnings from across most of its businesses. 

REGIONAL INTERESTS

Regional Interests contributed US$16 million, 24% lower than the previous year.

Cycle & Carriage

The contribution from Cycle & Carriage was down 28% to US$12 million. In Singapore, commercial vehicle sales rose 37%, and in respect of passenger cars, new car sales declined 20% reflecting recent regulatory changes that increased competitive pressure. Used car sales correspondingly also decreased 16%.

CORPORATE COSTS

Corporate net financing income of US$6 million was recorded compared to net financing charges of US$9 million last year, as the coupon interest from the convertible bond issued by THACO more than offset the corporate interest expenses, which decreased in line with the lower net debt over this period. Prior period results also benefited from US$33 million foreign exchange gains from the translation of foreign currency loans at the JC&C corporate level, which did not recur in the current period.

Outlook 

The operating environment in Indonesia is expected to continue facing macroeconomic headwinds for the remainder of the year. Nevertheless, we are confident in Astra's and Indonesia's fundamentals for the long-term and are committed to working with Astra to drive performance. With respect to our Vietnam portfolio, we continue to be positive on THACO and REE's sustained growth trajectory amid favourable economic conditions. 

We will continue to focus on supporting our portfolio companies to improve investment and financial performance, while evaluating opportunities to deliver value from our portfolio in a manner consistent with our strategic objectives.

Jardine Cycle & Carriage Limited Notes to the financial statements for the six months ended 30th June 2026

1      Basis of preparation

The condensed interim financial statements for the six months ended 30th June 2026 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The condensed interim financial statements do not include all the information required for a complete set of financial statements. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Group's financial position and performance of the Group since the last annual financial statements for the year ended 31st December 2025. There have been no changes to the accounting policies described in the 2025 audited accounts except for the adoption of new and amended standards. The Group has not early adopted any standards or amendments that have been issued but not yet effective. 

The exchange rates used for translating assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date are US$1=S$1.2937 (2025: US$1=S$1.2842), US$1=RM4.0573 (2025: US$1=RM4.0538), US$1=IDR17,856 (2025: US$1=IDR16,782) and US$1=VND26,306 (2025: US$1=VND26,283).

The exchange rates used for translating the results for the period are US$1=S$1.2788 (2025: US$1=S$1.3183), US$1=RM3.9740 (2025: US$1= RM4.3443), US$1=IDR17,251 (2025: US$1=IDR16,426) and US$1=VND26,215 (2025: US$1=VND25,716).

Critical accounting estimates and judgements

The preparation of the condensed interim financial statements require management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31st December 2025.

Fair value estimation

a)    Financial instruments that are measured at fair value

For financial instruments that are measured at fair value in the balance sheet, the corresponding fair value measurements are disclosed by level of the following fair value measurement hierarchy:

Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities ("quoted prices in active markets")

The fair values of listed securities and bonds are based on quoted prices in active markets at the balance sheet date. The quoted market price used for listed investments held by the Group is the current bid price.

Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly ("observable current market transactions")

The fair value measurement of interest rate swaps, cross currency swaps, forward foreign exchange contracts and commodity contracts were calculated by reference to observable market interest rates, foreign exchange rates and market prices of commodities.

Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data ("unobservable inputs")

The fair values of other unlisted equity and debt investments are determined using valuation techniques by reference to observable current market transactions or the market prices of the underlying investments with certain degree of entity-specific estimates or discounted cash flows by projecting the cash inflows from these investments. There were no changes in valuation techniques during the period. The debt investments are valued by an independent professional valuer using various pricing models, applying key inputs such as credit spread and volatility.

There were no changes in valuation techniques during the six months ended 30th June 2026 and the year ended 31st December 2025.

The table below analyses the Group's financial instruments carried at fair value, by the levels in the fair value measurement hierarchy.

There were no transfers among the three categories during the six months ended 30th June 2026 and the year ended 31st December 2025.

b) Financial instruments that are not measured at fair value

The fair values of current trade and other debtors, bank balances and other liquid funds, current creditors, current borrowings and current lease liabilities of the Group and the Company are assumed to approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities.

The fair values of long-term borrowings disclosed are based on market prices or are estimated using the expected future payments discounted at market interest rates. The fair values of non-current lease liabilities are estimated using the expected future payments discounted at market interest rates.
