Financial Performance Overview
The dividend announcement follows a period of robust growth for YUPI. Financial reports released on April 30, 2026, indicate that the company’s revenue for the first quarter of 2026 reached Rp763.18 billion, marking a 9.08% year-on-year (YoY) increase from Rp699.65 billion in the same period last year.
This positive revenue trajectory was largely bolstered by a significant reduction in the cost of goods sold, which dropped to Rp430.27 billion from the previous year’s Rp462.84 billion. Consequently, the company’s gross profit saw a substantial jump to Rp332.90 billion, compared to Rp236.81 billion, effectively improving the gross profit margin to 40.5%.
Despite these gains, the company faced some operational pressures. Selling expenses rose to Rp52.92 billion from Rp33.11 billion, driven primarily by an 80.9% surge in marketing and promotional spending, which totaled Rp30.33 billion. Additionally, general and administrative expenses increased to Rp42.94 billion from Rp25.66 billion.
A sharp decline in other operating income—falling to Rp2.75 billion from Rp27.07 billion—further moderated overall growth. Despite these factors, YUPI reported a net profit of Rp177.02 billion for the quarter, representing a 5.86% increase over the Rp167.22 billion recorded in Q1 2025.
