Expecting gold price to stay at a high level
Gold prices have climbed by 6.4% YTD (10Nov2023) to USD1,940/oz, bringing YTD
average to USD1,931.2/oz or 13.5% higher than our expectation. We believe that
strong Central Bank (CB) net purchase supported the gold price at a high level amid
ongoing wars. we raised our average FY23F gold price assumptions to
USD1,930/oz (from USD1,700/oz), and subsequently, we raised our FY24-25F gold
price/oz assumptions to USD1,950/1,850 from USD1,600/1,500. Specifically for 12M rating BUY (Maintain)

from recent shortage of nickel ore supply which led to a higher premium over nickel
ore benchmark price. We raised our assumptions of ANTM FY23-25F nickel ore Performance

We view for now relatively high gold prices and the expectation of an uptrend to

continue next year remains as the catalyst for ANTM. Meanwhile, pressure from
lower nickel prices is inevitable, but we believe the investors have priced in the
negative sentiment. We see commercialization of ANTM FeNi Haltim starting in 2,900

I. Expecting gold price to stay at a high level


Gold prices have climbed by 6.4% YTD (10Nov2023) to USD1,940/oz, bringing YTD
average to USD1,931.2/oz or 13.5% higher than our expectation. Historically, there is a
strong negative correlation between gold price and US real yield. However, the pattern seemed
to break in 2022 onwards; US real yield continued on an upward trajectory while gold price
stayed above USD1,800/oz level in the past 2 years. We believe that strong Central Bank (CB)
net purchase supported the gold price at a high level amid ongoing wars (i.e. Russia – Ukraine
and recently Israel – Hamas). CB gold net purchase hit 800 tonnes as of 9M23 (on track to
match FY22’s high 1,082 tonnes, twice as much as the average annual CB gold net
purchase between 2011 and 2021.

Nonetheless, we foresee the relationship between gold price and U.S. real yield will revert
to its historical pattern. CB gold net purchase reached its peak in 3Q22 (record-breaking
quarter) and has yet to reach that quarterly level despite current rising geopolitical tension. The
Fed has signaled one more rate hike this year. Considering the current high rate, market expects
deeper rate cuts in FY24 as a means to drive economic growth and we see this as a catalyst to
support the gold price. As such, we raised our average FY23F gold price assumptions to
USD1,930/oz (from USD1,700/oz), and subsequently, we raised our FY24-25F gold
price/oz assumptions to USD1,950/1,850 from USD1,600/1,500.

Specifically for ANTM, the gold demand this year is lower than what we saw in FY22. In 3Q23,
ANTM booked 191,362 oz sales volume, a 5.3% QoQ drop & a 52.2% YoY drop. Cumulative
9M23 gold sales volume reached 625,654 oz (fell 25.0% YoY), representing only 63.1% of our
previous FY23 forecast. We deem this achievement as below our expectations given the
company’s historical average sales volumes achievement in 9M stood at above 70%. Therefore
we slashed our FY23-25F gold sales volume by 9.2%/6.4%/6.4%. On the other hand, we lifted
FY23-25F gold ASP by 8.2/17.4/22.0% following our adjustment in gold price assumptions.

II. Fine-tuning FeNi and nickel ore projections


Adjusted FeNi ASP and sales volume downward
ANTM reported sluggish FeNi sales volumes in 3Q23, recording only 3,526 tonnes (-44.2%
QoQ/-53.9% YoY), or the lowest quarter over the last 5 years. Meanwhile, FeNi production
volumes in 3Q23 still surged by 2.9% QoQ to 5,250 tonnes. This is similar to the situation in
2Q22, where production volume increased, but sales volume dropped. At that time,
lockdowns in several targeted markets and high nickel prices were the key reasons for the weak
FeNi sales volume. This time, we believe that lower demand in several key markets is the main
factor as NPI price averaging at USD15.5k/tonne (much lower as compared to 2Q22 at
USD23.5k/tonne). ANTM explained that there was some sales volume done in late 3Q23,
which would eventually spill over to 4Q23.

ANTM’s 9M23 FeNi sales volume only achieved 54.0% of our previous FY23 forecast.
Thus, we cut FY23F FeNi sales volume projections by 18.5% to 21,356 tonnes and
subsequently adjusted down our FY24/25F sales volume projections by 20.0%/12.5%. Our
previous assumptions were quite aggressive mainly due to high expectations on the operation
of FeNi Haltim (13.5k tonnes of capacity). However, it turned out that the contribution from FeNi
Haltim is still minimal this year. Furthermore, we also cut our FY23/24/25F FeNi ASP by
16.8/18.0/15.5% as we revised our payability to NPI (8-12%) price forecasts.

Surprise on nickel ore sales volume


ANTM nickel ore sales volume was strong in 3Q23 at 3.15 mn wmt (+11.5% QoQ/+83.7%
YoY), bringing 9M23 to 9.4 mn wmt (+98.1% YoY) exceeding our previous FY23F
assumptions of 8.23 mn wmt. We view surging nickel ore demand during 3Q23 period as
related to the shortage of nickel ore environment. Just to recall, in Aug2023, an illegal mining
case in Mandiodo block hit the headline. This led to delays in mining production/selling quota
approvals and resulted in some nickel smelters facing a tight supply of nickel ore. Considering
this condition, nickel miners have the opportunity to capitalize by charging a higher premium
over benchmark selling price of mineral nickel (HPM).

However, ANTM mentioned that it would not be able to extract a greater premium from selling
nickel ore given the contractual obligations with its customers until the end of this year. Noting
that, contracts are usually made for 1 year long. In addition, given its State Owned Enterprise
(SoE) status, ANTM does not have the flexibility to charge premiums as there will be difficulties
in financial accounting. Based on our calculation using the company’s USDIDR average
rate, 9M23 nickel ore ASP was USD46.5/wmt or lower as compared to 6M23 ASP of
USD51.9/wmt. Interestingly, total nickel segment revenue in 3Q23 fell on QoQ, but EBITDA
margin of nickel segment widened by 16.2ppts.

Thus, we raised our assumptions of ANTM FY23-25F nickel ore sales volumes by
36.4/16.9/20.4% to 11.2mn/10.1mn/10.4mn wmt. However, we adjusted down our FY23-
25F nickel ore ASP by 4.9/4.8/4.8%.

III. ANTM 3Q23 results snapshot


ANTM reported a 3Q23 net profit of IDR958.8 bn (+323.1% QoQ/-12.9% YoY), bringing 9M23
bottom-line to IDR2.8 tn (+8.4% YoY) or translating to 73.7%/77.5% of ours/cons. This is lower
than our expectation but in line with consensus FY23 projections. Strong QoQ earnings
growth was mainly attributed to segment mix. 3Q23 revenue fell by 8.2% QoQ/38.0% YoY
underpinned by lower FeNi ASP and sales volume, as well as fall in gold sales volumes. However,
ANTM successfully boosted nickel ore sales volumes in 3Q23 (+11.5% QoQ/+83.7% YoY) and
bauxite (+43.9% QoQ/+94.5% YoY). Hence, as nickel ore and bauxite business segment yield
higher margins relative to gold and FeNi, 3Q23 gross margin and EBITDA margin of ANTM
expanded to 20.1% (vs. 13.8% in 2Q23) and 14.9% (vs. 8.8% in 2Q23).

IV. Maintain BUY call with TP of IDRxx/share


We fine-tuned our top-line assumptions to account for higher gold prices, lower nickel ASP, and
sales volume. This resulted in a marginal cut in our FY23F revenue (-1.0%), and a higher FY24-
25F revenue by 1.6/5.3% as higher gold prices outpace down revision on nickel segments.
Subsequently, we slashed our FY23-25F EBITDA and net profit by 10.0%/25.9%/25.2% and
9.3%/27.6%/26.7%, respectively mostly due to different revenue mix between gold and nickel.
Note that, nickel produced higher margins relative to gold trading.

We view for now relatively high gold prices and the expectation of an uptrend to continue next
year remains as the catalyst for ANTM. Meanwhile, pressure from lower nickel prices is
inevitable, but we believe the investors have priced in the negative sentiment. We see
commercialization of ANTM FeNi Haltim starting in 1Q24 to support the ANTM in terms of FeNi
sales volume growth. All in, we retain our BUY call on ANTM, with a lower TP of IDR2,200/sh
(from IDR2,880/sh). We rolled forward our valuation base to FY24F and we derived our
valuation from equally weighted DCF and EVEBITDA targets. ANTM now trades at 11.9x 24F
PE and 10.5x EVEBITDA. Key risk to our call include: 1) lower-than-expected metal prices 2)
delays on its RKEF and HPAL projects 3) changes in government regulation which negatively
impact the nickel industry. 4) Uncertainty of expenses that potentially arise from gold dispute

Aneka Tambang
Company update

Company Overview
In 1997, Aneka Tambang conducted its initial public offering (IPO) by listing 35% of its shares
on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) in order to raise money for the expansion of its
ferronickel business. In 1999, ANTM listed its shares in Australia as a foreign-exempt entity but
augmented its status to the more stringent ASX Listing in 2002.

Main business segments

1. Nickel business consists of ferronickel and nickel ore produced from the company’s nickel
mines in Southeast Sulawesi, North Maluku, and ferronickel plants in Southeast Sulawesi.
Ferronickel is a processed product, which contains about 80 percent iron and 20 percent
nickel. ANTM owns three ferronickel plants: FeNi I, FeNi II and FeNi III. Total capacity of
the three plants is 26,000 TNi, with an assumption of a peak load of 42MW and using nickel
ore with 2.38 percent content as feed. Around 70 percent of nickel is consumed for the
production of stainless steel, while the rest is used for various industrial purposes such as
batteries, electronics, aerospace applications, and land-based gas turbines.

2. Gold and refinery business segment consists of gold, silver, and precious metals
processing and refinery services. Gold and silver are produced through mining activities
and gold ore smelting to dore bullion. The gold ore mining is produced at two mining sites;
Pongkor (West Java) and Cibaliung (Banten), both being underground mines.

3. Bauxite and coal. Bauxite is produced from ANTM’s bauxite mine in Tayan (West
Kalimantan). In line with the company's strategy to enter the downstream business, ANTM
will process bauxite ore in Tayan by establishing a Chemical Grade Alumina (CGA) plant.
ANTM also plans to build a Smelter Grade Alumina (SGA) plant in Mempawah (West
Kalimantan).
