Dividend
UNTR declared an interim dividend of Rp430 per share for fiscal year 2026, totaling Rp1.47 trillion. The decision was based on a Circular Resolution of the Board of Directors dated September 23, 2026, and a Circular Resolution of the Board of Commissioners dated September 24, 2026, with payment scheduled for October 26, 2026.
The cum and ex dates: cum interim dividend in the regular and negotiated markets fell on October 6, 2026, with the ex date on October 7, 2026. For the cash market, the cum date was October 8, 2026, and the ex date October 9, 2026.
Notably, the interim dividend payout ratio reached 154.55% of first-half 2026 net income, well above 100%. In the disclosure, Corporate Secretary Ari Setiyawan stated that the interim dividend distribution "does not have a material impact on the company's operational activities, legal standing, financial condition, or business continuity," pointing to retained earnings far exceeding the dividend amount.
UNTR stock price movement
At the close on Friday, October 23, 2026, UNTR stood at Rp25,300, up 4.12%, making it one of the top gainers that lifted the Kompas100 index 0.86% to 702.76. This price sits below the midpoint of its 52-week range of Rp20,125-Rp32,825, indicating the stock remains well off its yearly high.
Over the past month, UNTR gained 4.8%, but it's still down 0.8% over three months and 7.3% over the past year. Average daily trading volume over the past three months stood at 4.25 million shares.
Technical analysis from BRI Danareksa Sekuritas as of late September 2026 noted that UNTR's price at the time (Rp25,175) remained below its 200-day moving average of around Rp27,061. Resistance was projected at Rp25,750, with a further target of Rp27,000-Rp27,061 if breached. Support was estimated around Rp23,900-Rp23,000, with a further support level at Rp20,900 if that zone breaks down. At the time, the MACD indicator remained in negative territory.
Recent news and catalysts
Several recent developments relevant to UNTR investors:
- October 23, 2026 (Kompas.com): UNTR rose 4.12% to Rp25,300, becoming a key driver of the Kompas100 index's 0.86% gain to 702.76, alongside Darma Henwa (DEWA) and Bukit Asam (PTBA).
- October 20, 2026 (mikirduit.com): UNTR was among 19 issuers preparing buyback programs as the IHSG plunged to around 4,900 and experienced a trading halt, amid concerns over IDX potentially being downgraded to standalone market status. UNTR allocated up to Rp2 trillion for its buyback, below BBCA's Rp5 trillion but above MBMA's Rp1.38 trillion.
- September 29, 2026 (Fortune Indonesia and Kompas.com): UNTR announced its interim dividend of Rp430 per share, coinciding with the stock jumping 3.28% to Rp25,175, driven by dividend sentiment, buyback plans, and a higher coal production quota under its RKAB.
Competitors on the IDX
A few IDX-listed companies that overlap with UNTR's business lines:
- HEXA (Hexindo Adiperkasa): the sole distributor of Hitachi heavy equipment in Indonesia, a direct competitor in UNTR's equipment distribution segment.
- INTA (Intraco Penta): a multi-brand heavy equipment distributor that also runs an equipment rental business.
- DOID (Delta Dunia Makmur): parent of PT Bukit Makmur Mandiri Utama, one of Indonesia's largest coal mining contractors, competing with UNTR's Mining Contracting line through Pamapersada Nusantara.
Risks
Several risks worth monitoring around UNTR's business and stock performance:
- Concentration in coal commodities. UNTR's coal sales volume fell 22% year-on-year for January-August 2026, highlighting the business's sensitivity to fluctuating commodity prices and demand.
- Dependence on RKAB policy. Coal production quotas are set annually by the government through the RKAB process, which can change and directly affect the company's production capacity.
- Interim dividend payout ratio above 100%. The 154.55% payout of first-half net income was supported by large retained earnings, but this pattern doesn't directly reflect current-period profitability.
- Macro market risk. UNTR shares were affected by broader IHSG turmoil that dropped the index to around 4,900 over concerns about IDX's potential downgrade to standalone market status, with foreign investors recording a net sell of Rp2.13 trillion on October 20, 2026.
- Technical position not yet solid. The price sat below its 200-day moving average with MACD in negative territory as of late September 2026, a sign that a trend recovery wasn't yet confirmed.
- Wide 52-week price range (Rp20,125-Rp32,825), indicating volatility that should be factored into any decision.
What it means for investors
A few concrete things worth tracking here, not as a basis for a buy or sell decision:
- Interim dividend payment on October 26, 2026. Investors holding shares before the cum date of October 6, 2026 (regular/negotiated market) or October 8, 2026 (cash market) are entitled to the Rp430 per share dividend.
- Progress of the Rp2 trillion buyback program that began on October 19, 2026. Since repurchases are usually carried out gradually, actual execution can be tracked through periodic IDX disclosures rather than assumed to run at full pace every day.
- Technical levels flagged by BRI Danareksa Sekuritas as of late September 2026: resistance at Rp25,750 with a further target of Rp27,000-Rp27,061, and support at Rp23,900-Rp23,000 with Rp20,900 as the next level if that breaks. These levels can shift as the price moves.
- Second-half 2026 coal production realization following the RKAB quota increase from 7.4 million to 12.4 million tons, given that sales volume for January-August 2026 was still down 22% year-on-year.
- Second-half and full-year 2026 financial results, which will show whether the net income trend improves from the first-half level of Rp956.28 billion.
