Two state-owned enterprises (SOEs), PT Pembangunan Perumahan Tbk. (PTPP) and PT Wijaya Karya Tbk. (WIKA), are reportedly slated for a merger.

According to *Katadata*, Novel Arsyad, the President Director of PTPP, stated that the merger proposal is still under review by the Ministry of SOEs.

“The in-depth discussion is entirely handled by the Ministry of SOEs, and we are awaiting their decision,” Novel told reporters in Jakarta on Wednesday (13/12/2023).

Novel also emphasized that the merger depends on the direction of Erick Thohir, the Minister of SOEs. Initially, the ministry planned to merge several SOEs for efficiency purposes. Erick stated in May that infrastructure SOEs would undergo consolidation.

The process will be divided into two segments: smaller SOEs will be handed over to PT Perusahaan Pengelola Aset (PPA) and Danareksa for mergers. Erick also mentioned that the ideal number of SOEs should be reduced from the current nine.

"We are still carrying out the consolidation according to the blueprint from two years ago. Ideally, it should be reduced from nine to four," said Erick.

So, what is the financial condition of both companies before the proposed merger?

Based on company reports, the financial condition of these two SOE issuers is quite different.

WIKA recorded assets of Rp66.65 trillion as of September 2023. PT PP's assets amounted to Rp59.31 trillion.

Of these amounts, WIKA's debt reached Rp55.67 trillion, while PTPP's debt was Rp44.21 trillion as of September 2023. Their equity was Rp10.97 trillion for WIKA and Rp15.09 trillion for PTPP.

In the same period, WIKA's revenue was recorded at Rp15.07 trillion. PTPP recorded revenue of Rp12.22 trillion.

Unfortunately, WIKA incurred a net loss of Rp5.88 trillion in September 2023. Meanwhile, PTPP still achieved a net profit of Rp239.72 billion in the same period.
