Valuation and earnings view
The numbers point to a market that is pricing PTBA on modest multiples while the latest reported half-year figures show a sharp profit rebound. For investors, the gap between the 6.28 times PER and the 218.10 percent profit increase is the central contrast on September 4, 2026.
What the first-half numbers mean
PTBA's semester I-2026 revenue and profit figures show how strongly the coal group benefited from the latest reporting period.
Coal sales still drive PTBA
PT Bukit Asam Tbk remains tied to coal sales, so the key operating question is whether the company can keep converting pricing and sales growth into profit at the same pace. The latest half-year figures show that it did so in semester I-2026, with revenue at IDR 22.03 trillion and net profit at IDR 2.65 trillion.
Stock level to watch
PTBA traded at IDR 2,890 on September 3, 2026, with the same report showing a 6.25 percent daily gain. The stock's PER of 6.28 times and PBV of 1.32 times frame the next move as a test of whether earnings momentum can hold into the next reporting period.
