JAKARTA, Indonesia - PT Bukit Makmur Mandiri Utama ("BUMA"), a subsidiary of PT BUMA Internasional Grup Tbk (IDX: DOID; "BUMA International Group"), has completed the early redemption of the remaining US$212.25 million of its outstanding 7.75% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "Notes"), ahead of its scheduled maturity in February 2026.

This early redemption reflects BUMA's proactive approach to liability management, improving liquidity and capital structure flexibility, and strengthening its credit profile and investor confidence.

The 7.75% Senior Notes were initially issued in February 2021 with a total principal amount of US$400 million and were subsequently amended under supplemental agreements in June 2022 and March 2024. With this payment, all remaining bonds have now been fully settled. Interest on the Notes has stopped accruing, marking the full completion of the 2026 Senior Notes.

The transaction was primarily funded using BUMA's existing syndicated loan facility with leading Indonesian banks, including PT Bank Negara Indonesia (Persero) Tbk, PT Bank Mandiri (Persero) Tbk, and PT Bank Central Asia Tbk. This reflects strong institutional confidence in BUMA and continued access to liquidity.

Silfanny Bahar, Director of BUMA, stated, "Retiring the 2026 Senior Notes is an important step in reducing our near-term repayment risk and strengthening BUMA's liquidity position, reaffirming our disciplined approach to capital allocation. The Notes supported BUMA's strategic initiatives in previous years, and we thank our bondholders for their trust."

BUMA remains committed to a disciplined and diversified financing strategy, ensuring continued access to multiple financing sources, including conventional and sharia bank facilities, Sukuk, USD and IDR bonds, and leasing. This balanced approach supports financial flexibility and positions BUMA to capitalize on future growth opportunities.
