JAKARTA – PT RMK Energy Tbk. (RMKE) has announced a significant plan to conduct a share buyback, earmarking a maximum value of IDR 200 billion for the initiative. According to RMKE management, this strategic buyback transaction is underpinned by the company’s robust fundamentals and the substantial growth opportunities that have emerged since its crucial hauling road commenced optimal operations in the second half of the previous year.
RMKE confirmed that its share buyback plan was formally submitted to the Financial Services Authority (OJK) and the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) through information disclosure on January 30, 2026. The execution of this plan strictly adheres to the provisions outlined in OJK Regulation No. 13 of 2023, OJK Regulation No. 29 of 2023, and the letter from the Head of Capital Market Supervision at OJK, No. S-102/D.04/2025, ensuring full regulatory compliance.
The company has scheduled the share buyback to take place between February 2, 2026, and May 1, 2026. As stated by RMKE management in its official release on Friday, January 30, 2026, the repurchases will be executed through transactions on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, either incrementally or as a single block, contingent on prevailing market conditions and regulatory frameworks. Furthermore, the number of shares eligible for buyback will not exceed 20% of the company’s issued and fully paid-up capital, with the total maximum value for the repurchase, including transaction and associated costs, capped at IDR 200 billion.
Funding for the share buyback will exclusively utilize RMKE’s internal cash resources. Management has affirmed that this approach will not incur any additional liabilities or financing burdens for the company. RMKE also underscored that the buyback operation is not expected to materially impact its ongoing operational activities or business continuity, as the company’s robust cash flow position is deemed more than sufficient to support its operational requirements and meet all financial obligations.

Furthermore, RMKE reported that since its state-of-the-art hauling road facility commenced operations last year, it has successfully facilitated the transportation of an additional 1.5 million tons of coal. This impressive increase in volume is attributed to strategic collaborations forged with three new clients, which began in 2025: PT Wiraduta Sejahtera Langgeng (WSL), PT Duta Bara Utama (DBU), and PT Menambang Muara Enim (MME) in Muara Enim. These significant contributions enabled RMKE to maintain a robust total coal transportation volume of 8 million tons throughout 2025.
Turning to its coal sales segment, RMKE demonstrated strong performance in the fourth quarter of 2025, recording a substantial 36.3% year-on-year increase in sales volume, reaching 1.3 million tons compared to the corresponding period last year. By the end of 2025, RMKE had successfully sold a cumulative total of 2.4 million tons of coal, predominantly sourced from third-party mines, underscoring its expanding market presence.
Vincent Saputra, President Director of RMKE, highlighted the company’s impressive trajectory, stating, “We observed significant growth in coal sales volume during the fourth quarter of 2025, coupled with considerably better prices. We are also highly optimistic that in 2026, coal sales volume will inherently increase, particularly with the strategic option to purchase coal directly at the mine mouth, which is now seamlessly connected to our hauling road.”
For the current year, RMKE’s strategic focus is on enhancing the connectivity of its hauling road access, targeting an ambitious 19 potential mines, three of which were already integrated in 2025. Looking ahead to 2026, RMKE aims to secure an additional four to five new clients, projecting a robust service transportation volume target of 12 million tons and a coal sales target of 3.6 million tons, signaling strong expansion plans.
