Today's Headlines IPO
Over the past year, we released two stories on the merger of Gojek and Tokopedia, two Indonesian tech companies that have evolved into huge companies over the past decade (with Gojek having turned into a Decacorn and Tokopedia into a unicorn).
In recent months most attention went to the merger of Indonesian ‘superapp’ Gojek and e-commerce giant Tokopedia – including their plans to conduct an initial public offering (IPO) on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). But we should not forget that another Indonesian e-commerce giant (and tech startup unicorn), called Bukalapak, is scheduled to list on the IDX on 6 August 2021.
Although we already discussed the (then-looming) merger between Aplikasi Karya Anak Bangsa (Gojek) and Tokopedia in detail in our January 2021 report, we do feel it is justified to cover this topic once more – albeit slightly more succinct this time – since it is now official (announced on 17 May 2021) that both sides re to merge, thus creating a massive entity (named GoTo) with an impressive and unique ecosystem.
So far in 2018 a total of 51 Indonesian companies made their trading debuts on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX), hence effectively completing their initial public offering (IPO). This is a remarkable number as well as a significant increase from 37 successful IPOs in 2017, and 14 in 2016. Moreover, the big number of IPOs in Indonesia this year is particularly remarkable considering there is plenty of uncertainty lurking about in global and domestic markets.
Urban Jakarta Propertindo, a Jakarta-based property developer that focuses on the integration between property development and the availability of public transportation, will offer 600 million shares - equivalent to 16.85 percent of the company's total shares - to the public through an initial public offering (IPO) on the Indonesia Stock Exchange.
Superkrane Mitra Utama, the biggest heavy equipment construction and equipment rental company in Indonesia, is scheduled to make its trading debut on the Indonesia Stock Exchange on 11 October 2018. The initial public offering (IPO) of the company appeals to investor appetite as the IPO is reportedly oversubscribed 9.9 times.
Andira Agro, an Indonesia-based company that owns, operates, and manages palm oil plantations as well as one crude palm oil mill, is set to make its trading debut on the Indonesia Stock Exchange on Thursday (16/08). The offering price for the company's initial public offering (IPO) is set at IDR 200 per share.
Indonesia-based film production house MD Pictures made its trading debut on Tuesday (07/08). It was a success as the company's shares soared nearly 50 percent, meaning the auto reject system kicked in. MD Pictures is the 31st company to have completed its initial public offering (IPO) on the Indonesia Stock Exchange so far in 2018. There are now 595 companies listed on the local bourse in Indonesia.
The Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) revised its target for the number of initial public offerings (IPOs) on the IDX to 35 (from 25 previously) in full-year 2019. The revision was made after the IDX detected plenty of demand for future IPOs in Indonesia.
Before the end of 2018 we might be witnessing the trading debut of a "giant company" in Indonesia. Reportedly, food and beverage producer GarudaFood is preparing its initial public offering (IPO) on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Next week the company, which is part of the Tudung Group (established by Darmo Putro), is expected to conduct a mini expose at the Indonesia Stock Exchange.
