Sky is the limit for some Miners. Some publicly listed Companies have been increasing its presence overseas.
DSSA (Dian Swastatika Sentosa)
It acquired Stanmore Coal (ASX:SMR) back in 2020. In turn, SMR is about to complete its full acquisition of SMC / BMC, a tier 1 asset from mining powerhouse BHP & Mitsui.
In H1 FY22 alone, SMR generated more than USD 1 billion in revenue.
DOID (Delta Dunia Makmur)
Possibly the only mining contractor that diversified to overseas operations. It acquired ‘Open Cut Mining East’ asset (coal mining contractor) from Downers (ASX: DOW) in 2021. It was later renamed as BUMA Australia.
So far, DOID’s overseas business constitutes 12% of revenue in 1H 2022.
HRUM (Harum Energy)
Cashed up from its coal mine operations, it gradually increases its investment in Nickel Industries (ASX: NIC) since 2020. Nickel Industries itself is a major player in nickel processing facilities in Indonesia.
NIC currently operates 4 RKEF lines and will expand into 12 RKEF lines. The past year has witnessed 50% growth in EBITDA.
ADRO (Adaro Energy Indonesia)
Being the largest coal miner in the country, it does not stop there. It acquired 80% shares in Kestrel Coal Mine back in 2018.
Although Kestrel’s contributes less than 15% of Adaro’s overall production; this asset generates close to USD 1 billion in revenue and gross profit close to USD 500 million in FY22.
Other acquisitions / expansions are not mentioned here since they are not publicly listed Companies.
