CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

Overview

The performance of Jardine Cycle & Carriage ("JC&C" or "the Group") in 2021 recovered substantially compared to 2020, reflecting improvements across all parts of the portfolio. The Group's results were, however, 9% lower than in 2019, prior to the start of the pandemic.

Astra contributed US$655 million to the Group's underlying profit, compared to US$309 million in the previous year, reflecting improved performances particularly from its automotive, financial services, heavy equipment and mining, and agribusiness operations.

Direct Motor Interests contributed an underlying profit of US$39 million, compared to US$14 million in the previous year, mainly due to improved contributions from Cycle & Carriage Singapore and Tunas Ridean.

Other Strategic Interests contributed an underlying profit of US$151 million, 26% up from the previous year, mainly due to improved contributions from THACO's automotive operations.

Corporate costs increased from US$14 million in 2020 to US$59 million, primarily due to the impact on costs of the translation of foreign currency loans, which led to a foreign exchange loss of US$28 million in 2021, compared to a gain of US$24 million in the previous year.

The Group's underlying profit attributable to shareholders was 83% higher than the previous year at US$786 million. After accounting for non-trading items, profit attributable to shareholders was US$661 million, 22% higher than the previous year. The non-trading items recorded in the year mainly comprised unrealised fair value losses related to non-current investments.

The Group's financial position remains strong, with net asset value per share of US$18.64 at the year-end, 6% higher than at the end of 2020. Consolidated net cash, excluding Astra's financial services subsidiaries, was US$0.8 billion at the end of December 2021, compared to consolidated net debt of US$0.9 billion at the end of 2020, mainly due to improved operating cash flows. Net debt within Astra's financial services subsidiaries decreased from US$2.8 billion to US$2.7 billion.

JC&C corporate net debt was US$1.5 billion, similar to the previous year-end.

Strategic Developments

Astra

Over the past year, Astra has made several strategic investments in new businesses, including US$35 million in Halodoc, a healthcare-based technology platform, as part of its strategic focus on building expertise in the healthcare sector.

Astra also entered into several transactions involving its existing businesses. In its infrastructure business, Astra acquired a 49% stake in Jasamarga Pandaan Malang, the operator of the 38.5km Pandaan-Malang toll road, one of the most important toll roads in East Java, for US$95 million. It also acquired an additional 14% stake in Marga Lingkar Jakarta, the operator of the 7.7km Kebon Jeruk- Ulujami toll road as part of the Jakarta Outer Ring Road, for US$19 million, taking its ownership to 49%. These acquisitions bring Astra's total interests in toll roads to 396km.

In Astra's property business, Astra Land Indonesia ("ALI"), Astra's 50:50 joint venture with Hongkong Land, acquired the remaining 33% stake in Astra Modern Land, the developer of the Asya residential township in East Jakarta, which it did not already own for US$70 million in December 2021.

Finally, in February 2022, ALI established a joint venture with LOGOS to develop and manage modern logistics warehouses in Indonesia.

Direct Motor Interests

During the year, JC&C increased its interest in Cycle & Carriage Bintang from 59.1% to 89.0% for around US$18 million, through a series of on-market purchases and acceptances under its Voluntary General Offer. In June 2021, JC&C also entered into an agreement to acquire the remaining 30% stake that it did not own in Republic Auto, a used car business in Singapore, for approximately US$22 million.

Other Strategic Interests

During the year, JC&C increased its interest in REE from 29.8% to 31.0% through a series of on-market purchases, for around US$10 million.

Dividends

The Board is recommending a final one-tier tax-exempt dividend of US¢62 per share (2020: US¢34 per share) which, together with the interim dividend of US¢18 per share (2020: US¢9 per share), will produce a total dividend for the year of US¢80 per share (2020: US¢43 per share), 86% higher than 2020.

People

On behalf of the Board, I would like to recognise our 240,000 employees across the region for their continuing hard work and efforts, which have enabled the Group to continue to operate despite the challenging environment created by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Ms Vimala Menon, the Lead Independent Director and Chairperson of the Audit Committee, retired from the Board in December 2021. Mr Michael Kok, Chairman of the Remuneration Committee, will be retiring from the Board in March 2022. On behalf of the Board, I would like to record our appreciation and thank Vimala and Michael for their valuable contributions to the Group.

I am delighted to welcome Mr Samuel Tsien, who joined the Board in October 2021 as an independent director. Samuel has many years of experience in the banking and finance sectors, and we look forward to the contribution he will bring to the Group.

Outlook

The pandemic is expected to remain a significant risk to performance in 2022, but the Group is optimistic about the long-term economic prospects of Southeast Asia, and is well placed to benefit from its growth opportunities.

GROUP MANAGING DIRECTOR'S REVIEW

Group Review

The Group's business comprises three pillars: (i) Astra; (ii) Direct Motor Interests ("DMI"), which consists of the Group's non-Astra automotive businesses; and (iii) Other Strategic Interests. The contribution to JC&C's underlying profit attributable to shareholders by business pillar was as follows:

	Contribution to JC&C's underlying profit
	Year ended 31st December
Business pillars	2021 US$m	2020 US$m	Change %
Astra	655	309	112
Direct Motor Interests	39	14	183
Other Strategic Interests	151	120	26
Corporate Costs	(59)	(14)	320
Underlying profit attributable to shareholders	786	429	83

Astra

Astra contributed US$655 million to JC&C's underlying profit, compared to US$309 million in the previous year. Under Indonesian accounting standards, Astra reported a net income equivalent to US$1.4 billion, reflecting improved performances particularly from its automotive, financial services, heavy equipment and mining, and agribusiness operations.

Automotive

Net income increased significantly to US$509 million in 2021, mainly due to the recovery from the negative impact in 2020 of the pandemic and related containment measures. Sales volumes increased during the year, particularly in the car segment, which benefited from temporary luxury sales tax incentives. Key points were as follows:

·	The wholesale car market increased by 67% to 887,000 units. Astra's car sales were 81% higher at 489,000 units, with its market share increasing from 51% to 55%.
·	The wholesale market for motorcycles increased by 38% to 5.1 million units. Astra's Honda motorcycle sales grew 36% to 3.9 million units, but saw a slight decrease in market share from 79% to 78%.
·	Components business, Astra Otoparts, reported a net profit of US$43 million compared to a profit of less than US$1 million last year, mainly due to higher revenues from the original equipment manufacturer, replacement market and export segments.

Financial Services

Net income increased by 49% to US$345 million, due to higher contributions from the consumer finance and general insurance businesses. Key points were as follows:

·	Consumer finance businesses saw a 25% increase in the amounts financed to US$5.8 billion. The net income contribution from the car-focused finance companies increased by 70% to US$98 million, and the contribution from the motorcycle-focused financing business increased by 66% to US$174 million. Both increases were mainly due to lower loan loss provisioning.
·	Heavy equipment-focused finance operations saw an 88% increase in the amounts financed to US$467 million. The net income contribution from this business increased by 85% to US$5 million.
·	General insurance company, Asuransi Astra Buana, reported a 21% increase in net income to US$77 million, due to higher investment and underwriting income.

Heavy Equipment, Mining, Construction & Energy

Net income increased by 79% to US$427 million, mainly due to higher Komatsu heavy equipment sales and improved coal prices. Key points were as follows:

·	United Tractors reported a 71% increase in net income to US$718 million.
·	Komatsu heavy equipment sales increased by 97% to 3,088 units.
·	Mining contracting operations reported 3% higher overburden removal volume at 852 million bank cubic metres, while coal production was 1% higher at 116 million tonnes.
·	Coal mining subsidiaries achieved 3% higher coal sales at 9 million tonnes, including 2.4 million tonnes of metallurgical coal.
·	Agincourt Resources saw 3% higher gold sales at 330,000 oz.
·	General contractor, Acset Indonusa, reported a net loss of US$49 million, mainly due to the slowdown of several ongoing projects and reduced construction project opportunities during the pandemic.

Agribusiness

Net income from Agribusiness increased significantly to US$110 million, mainly as a result of a 32% increase in average crude palm oil prices.

Infrastructure & Logistics

Astra's infrastructure and logistics division reported a net profit of US$5 million, 53% higher than last year, mainly due to improved performances in its toll road and Serasi Autoraya operations. Key points were as follows:

·	Toll road revenues were 25% higher. Astra has 396km of operational toll roads along the Trans-Java network and in the Jakarta Outer Ring Road.
·	Serasi Autoraya's net income increased by 26% to US$10 million, mainly due to improved operating margins and a 5% increase in the number of vehicles under contract to 24,300 units, despite lower used car sales.

Direct Motor Interests

The Group's Direct Motor Interests contributed US$39 million to JC&C's underlying profit, compared to US$14 million in the previous year. Key points were as follows:

·	Cycle & Carriage Singapore contributed US$29 million, 58% up from the previous year, supported by higher profits from its premium and used car operations, which were less impacted than its mass market operations by high COE prices. Total passenger car sales fell 10% to 6,783 units, with market share decreased from 17% to 15%.
·	In Indonesia, Tunas Ridean contributed US$16 million, compared to US$1 million last year, mainly due to higher profits from its automotive and financial services businesses.
·	Cycle & Carriage Bintang in Malaysia contributed a profit of US$1 million, compared to a loss of US$1 million in the previous year.

Other Strategic Interests

Other Strategic Interests contributed US$151 million, 26% up on the previous year. Key points were as follows:

·	THACO contributed a profit of US$62 million, 60% higher than the previous year, mainly due to stronger automotive results, as margins benefited from an improved sales mix which offset a 5% decline in unit sales.
·	REE's contribution of US$22 million was 8% higher than the previous year, mainly due to improved performances from its power and water investments as a result of favourable hydrography.
·	The contribution from Siam City Cement ("SCCC") was US$28 million, 18% up from last year, mainly due to a reduction in corporate tax rates in respect of its Sri Lanka operations. Excluding the favourable tax impact, SCCC's contribution would have been flat, with the benefit of continued cost-saving initiatives offset by continued lower cement volumes, as market demand was affected by the pandemic, and, reduced margins as a result of an increase in coal prices.
·	The Group's investment in Vinamilk delivered a dividend income of US$39 million. Vinamilk reported a 5% decrease in net profit mainly due to higher input and transportation costs.

Corporate Costs

Summary

We saw a strong recovery across the JC&C portfolio in 2021 and I am encouraged that we have achieved results which are close to the Group's pre-pandemic 2019 performance. Overall, we are pleased that the portfolio has demonstrated resilience during these challenging times.

Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31st December 2021

1 Basis of preparation

The financial statements are consistent with those set out in the 2020 audited accounts which have been prepared in accordance with Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (International) ("SFRS(I)") and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). The condensed interim financial statements for the six months ended 31st December 2021 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 interim financial statements for the period ended 30th June 2021. There have been no changes to the accounting policies described in the 2020 audited accounts except for the adoption of new and amended standards as set out below. The Group has not early adopted any other standard 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$1.3517 (2020: US$1=S$1.3216), US$1=RM4.1735 (2020: US$1=RM4.0245), US$1=IDR14,269 (2020: US$1=IDR14,105), US$1=VND22,790 (2020: US$1=VND23,086) and US$1=THB33.318 (2020: US$1= THB29.920).

The exchange rates used for translating the results for the period are US$1=S$1.3433 (2020: US$1=S$1.3771), US$1=RM4.1485 (2020: US$1=RM4.2022), US$1=IDR14,345 (2020: US$1=IDR14,647), US$1=VND22,915 (2020: US$1=VND23,247) and US$1=THB32.118 (2020: US$1=THB31.309).

Interpretations and amendments to published standard effective in 2021

On 1st January 2021, the Group has adopted the new or amended IFRS and Interpretations of IFRS that are mandatory for application for the financial year. Changes to the Group's accounting policies have been made as required, in accordance with the transitional provisions in the respective IFRS and Interpretations of IFRS.

The adoption of these new or amended IFRS and Interpretations of IFRS did not result in substantial changes to the Group's accounting policies and had no material effect on the amounts reported for the current or prior financial years.

Interest Rate Benchmark Reform - Phase 2: Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 (effective from 1st January 2021)

The amendments provide practical expedient from certain requirements under IFRSs as a result of the reform which affect the measurement of financial assets, financial liabilities and lease liabilities, and a number of reliefs for hedging relationships. The Group applied the amendments from 1st January 2021 and there is no significant impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements.

COVID-19 Related Rent Concessions beyond 30th June 2021: Amendment to IFRS 16 Leases (effective from 1st April 2021)

The Group adopted and applied the practical expedient of the Covid-19 Related Rent Concessions: Amendment to IFRS 16 Leases, published in June 2020 ("2020 amendment"), in the 2020 annual financial statements. The 2021 amendment extends the practical expedient in the 2020 amendment to eligible lease payments due on or before 30th June 2022. By using the 2021 amendment, the Group continues to apply the practical expedient consistently to all lease contracts with similar characteristics and in similar circumstances, and does not assess these concessions as lease modifications.

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 2021.

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 values of derivative financial instruments are determined using rates quoted by the Group's bankers at the balance sheet date. The rates for interest rate swaps and caps, cross-currency swaps and forward foreign exchange contracts are calculated by reference to the market interest rates and foreign exchange rates.

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

The fair values of other unlisted equity 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 year.

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

b) Financial instruments that are not measured at fair value

The fair values of current 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.
