Answer
   a. Background to the decrease in cash of Rp9.61 billion in the three-month
      period ended March 31, 2025 in cash accounts in banks and time

         Answer:
         The decrease in cash during the period December 31, 2024 to March 31,
         2025 was due to operating expenses and asset investment expenses that in

         activities are part of the planned business activities and are reflected in the
         financial statements.


   b. Business processes and control over the Company's cash usage,
      especially on the cash balance from the proceeds of the Company's
      initial public offering. The Company must provide answers in narrative

         In order to ensure accountability and transparency, PT Mutuagung Lestari
         Tbk (hereinafter referred to as the “Company” or “MUTU”) manages the
                                                                                           Page 2

   proceeds from the initial public offering (IPO) by referring to the provisions of
   POJK No. 30/POJK.04/2015 concerning the Report on the Realization of the
   Use of Proceeds from the Public Offering and POJK No. 75/POJK.04/2017
   concerning the Responsibility of the Board of Directors for Financial Reports.
   Until December 31, 2024, the remaining unused IPO funds amounting to
   IDR31.77 billion, all of which are placed in short-term time deposits and
   current accounts at PT Bank Syariah Indonesia Tbk, with a term of 1 month
   and an automatic renewal system. Placement is made in banks that are not
   affiliated with the Company, to ensure the principle of independence and
   avoid conflicts of interest as stipulated in POJK No. 42 / POJK.04 / 2020.
   In accordance with Article 6 of POJK No. 30/2015, the Company has and will
   continue to report the use of funds from the public offering periodically (every
   6 months) to the Financial Services Authority (OJK) and the public through
   the Company's official website and information disclosure on the Indonesia
   Stock Exchange.
   This entire control process is a form of the Company's commitment to
   maintaining Good Corporate Governance (GCG), namely ensuring that the
   use of public funds is carried out according to the plan that the Company has
   disclosed in the Prospectus and in accordance with the principles of Good
   Corporate Governance (GCG) in order to support sustainable business
   growth and provide added value to all Shareholders.


c. It is known through the Public Offering Results Realization Report of PT
   Mutuagung Lestari Tbk on December 31, 2024 (LRPD) that the
   remaining funds from the public offering of Rp31 billion were placed in
   short-term deposits at PT Bank Syariah Indonesia Tbk. In the period
   ending March 31, 2025, the short-term deposit balance at PT Bank
   Syariah Indonesia Tbk amounted to Rp31.2 billion. To explain the nature
   and cause of the difference of Rp200 million between the LRPD and LK
   TW1.
   Answer:
   We can say that there is no difference in the amount of deposits presented in
   the Financial Report as of December 31, 2024 with the amount stated in the
   LRPD as of December 31, 2024.
   In the LRPD as of December 31, 2024, the deposit value was reported at
   IDR31 billion. Meanwhile, in the Financial Statement as of December 31,
   2024, the deposit was reported at IDR31.2 billion, consisting of MUTU
   deposits of IDR31 billion and the deposit balance owned by a subsidiary,
   namely PT Jasa Mutu Mineral Indonesia (hereinafter referred to as
   "JAMMIN"), of IDR200 million. Thus, there is no difference in the deposit
   balance in the name of MUTU reported in the LRPD and the Financial
   Statement.




                                                                                       Page 3

There is confusion on the question regarding the deposit balance as of March

The deposit balance as of March 31, 2025, which should be IDR 26 billion, is
not IDR 31.2 billion, as reflected in the following explanation:

a. Background from lower business income than cash receipts from

   Answer:
   Income lower business compared to cash receipts in the period ended March

d. The Company's operational policies regarding credit sales and

   Answer:
   The Company establishes a credit sales policy as part of its strategy to drive
   sales growth, maintain long-term relationships with Customers and maintain
   the Company's cash flow. This policy is prepared by considering the principle
   of prudence in managing receivables risk and compliance with applicable
   accounting standards.

   Credit facilities are not provided generally to all Customers, but based on a
   number of considerations, including: previous cooperation history, payment
   capacity, and Customer classification. Customers who are included in large
   private companies, BUMN, or government agencies, generally have their own
   payment systems and provisions that are taken into account in determining
   credit requirements.

   All accounts receivable are monitored periodically and involve the Technical
   Division through regular coordination meetings to monitor the progress of
   billing and Customer payment status.


                                                                                      Page 7

      process to ensure effective accounts receivable management.

      The collection process includes various steps, such as reminders to
      customers via WhatsApp and phone calls, mass email notifications, collection
      visits, renegotiation of payment terms, issuance of formal collection letters,
      and suspension of services in cases where previous collection efforts have
      proven ineffective.

      As part of risk management, the company also implements a provisioning
      policy for potential bad debts in accordance with the provisions of PSAK 71.


   e. The Company's accounting policy/SOP/technical instructions regarding
      revenue recognition
      Answer:
      Referring to the Q1 2025 Financial Statements submitted by the Company,
      Revenue is measured based on the consideration that the Group (MUTU &
      JAMMIN) estimates to be its right in the contract with the customer and
      excludes amounts billed on behalf of third parties. The Group (MUTU &
      JAMMIN) recognizes revenue when it transfers control of goods or services to
      the customer.
      The Group recognizes primary revenue as follows:
       1. Laboratory testing services
       2. Product certification services
       3. Surveyor and technical inspection services.
      Laboratory testing services
      Revenue from laboratory testing services is recognized at a point in time,
      namely when the services are rendered and the Group (MUTU & JAMMIN)
      has issued the test result sheet.
      Product certification services
      Product certification service revenue is recognized at a point in time, namely
      when the service is rendered and the Group (MUTU & JAMMIN) has issued

Page 10
Answer:
   a. Background to the increase in accounts receivable that are past due;
      Answer:
      - Age 61-90 days experienced an increase of IDR 5.4 billion:
      The balance of receivables in the 61–90-day category increased by Rp5.4
      billion, reflecting sales in December 2024 that are still in the process of being
      paid off by customers. Some of these customers are parties affiliated with
      government agencies, where the payment process generally takes between 3
      to 6 months.


      - Age > 90 days experienced an increase of IDR 1.98 billion
      Receivables over 90 days increased by Rp1.98 billion, reflecting sales in
      November 2024 that are still in the process of being paid off. This increase
      mainly came from the 90–120-day receivables category, with contributions
      from private sector customers and government agencies.
      Mutu has a broad and diverse customer base, with varying characteristics
      and payment capabilities. Amidst global economic pressures, the Company
      remains optimistic that customers will fulfill their obligations as economic
      conditions improve. In an effort to maintain the quality of receivables, Mutu
      continues to strengthen communication, build constructive cooperation, and
      implement an adaptive and responsive collection system.

Page 11
      Company believes in the adequacy of the CKPN formed;
      Answer:

      The establishment of Allowance for Impairment Losses (CKPN) for trade
      receivables is carried out based on management's evaluation of the
      collectibility of receivables, taking into account the analysis of the age of
      receivables. Receivables with a longer age are subject to a higher CKPN
      percentage. For significant receivables balances that have passed the
      collection period, the Company conducts individual assessments based on
      financial information and customer business conditions. Management
      believes that the CKPN formed as of March 31, 2025 is adequate and
      periodically reviews it to adjust to customer financial conditions and economic
      changes.

  d. The Company's accounting policy regarding the calculation of CKPN and
     the write-off of CKPN.
      Answer:
      The company uses a provision matrix to calculate the ECL for accounts
      receivable. The provision level is based on days past due for groupings of
      different customer segments that have similar loss patterns.
      The provision matrix is initially based on historically observed default rates. The
      Company will calibrate the matrix to adjust historical credit loss experience with
      forward-looking information. For example, if economic conditions (i.e., gross
      domestic product) are expected to deteriorate over the next year, leading to an
      increase in defaults, the historical default rate is adjusted. At each reporting
      date, the historically observed default rate is updated and changes in
      forward-looking estimates are analyzed.
      Write-off of receivables is carried out when management believes that the
      receivables are uncollectible, for example due to customer bankruptcy. The
      balance of receivables written off is compared with the CKPN that has been
      formed, and if not all of it is reserved, the difference is charged as an
      impairment loss in the current year's income statement.


4. In CALK 5 Accounts Receivable page 41 of PT Mutuagung Lestari Tbk's
   Financial Statements for the period ending March 31, 2025, there is an error

Page 12
Based on this information, the Company must explain the following matters:
a. Steps the Company will take to correct misrepresentations in the First
   Quarter Financial Report;
b. The Company's internal control policy for financial reporting to ensure
   the accuracy of the information presented in the unaudited financial
   statements.
Answer:
a. Steps the Company will take to correct misrepresentations in the First
   Quarter Financial Report
   Answer:
   There are no addition errors for the comparative balances as of December
   31, 2024.
     1. The subtotal of IDR 100.64 billion is the sum of third party receivables
        balances only.




     2. The subtotal is then reduced by the allowance for impairment losses of
        Rp 20.771 billion, resulting in third party receivables – net of Rp 79.875
        billion.




                                                                                     Page 12
Page 13
    3. The total of Rp 79,888,009,263 is the sum of related party receivables
       of Rp 12,071,491 and net third party receivables of Rp 79,875,937,772.




b. The Company's internal control policy for financial reporting to ensure
   the accuracy of the information presented in the unaudited financial
   statements.
   Answer:
   Based on POJK No. 21/POJK.04/2015 concerning the Implementation of
   Guidelines for Public Company Governance, Public Companies are required
   to disclose information regarding the implementation of aspects, principles,
   and recommendations of Good Corporate Governance.
   In addition, in accordance with POJK No. 56/POJK.04/2015 concerning the
   Establishment and Guidelines for the Preparation of Internal Audit Unit
   Charters, Public Companies are required to establish an independent
   Internal Audit Unit that is directly responsible to the President Director. In the
   Company's Internal Audit Charter that has been submitted, one of the main
   tasks of the Internal Audit Unit is to conduct examinations and assessments
   of the efficiency and effectiveness of activities in various fields, including
   finance, accounting, marketing, operations, human resources, information
   technology, and other activities within the Company.
   Referring to the provisions of the two POJK, internal control over financial
   reporting is a crucial aspect in the implementation of Good Corporate
   Governance (GCG). Therefore, to ensure the accuracy of financial report
   information, the Company relies on the function of the Internal Audit Unit that
                                                                                        Page 13
Page 14
       has been formed.
5. Based on CALK 16 on Cost of Revenue and CALK 17 Operating Expenses,
   there is information on an increase in salary and allowance expenses in the
   period ended March 31, 2025 when compared to the period ended March 31,
   2024. Based on information on the number of permanent employees
   presented in CALK 1c on Key Management and other information, the
   Company's permanent employees as of March 31, 2025 were 326 employees.
   In CALK 1c of the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements for the
   period March 31, 2024, the number of permanent employees was 359
   employees. Based on this information, the Company is required to explain
   the following:
   a. Explanation regarding the amount of salary and allowance expenses
      increasing compared to the decreasing number of permanent
      employees;
   b. Information regarding the Company's human resources as of March 31,
      2025 and at the most recent time submitted based on employee status
      and employee placement based on geography and based on placement
      in the Company's group structure;
   c. Details of salaries and forms of benefits provided to the Company's
      employees. The Company must provide answers using the following
      table format:




   Answer:
   a. Explanation regarding the amount of salary and allowance expenses
      increasing compared to the decreasing number of permanent
      employees;
       Answer:
       Phe increase in salary and allowance expense was due to the payment of Eid
       Allowance (THR) in the first quarter of 2025, which did not occur in the same
       period in 2024. The provision of THR is the company's obligation in
       accordance with applicable laws and regulations, and this payment was
       made earlier considering that Eid al-Fitr falls in early April 2025. Thus, the
       recording of THR expense is included in the consolidated financial

   expenses that had been paid in advance, both for operational purposes,
   purchases of fixed assets, and business travel needs. However, the
   prepayments have not been recognized as expenses in the current period
   because the economic benefits will be obtained in the following period. Thus,

e. The business procedures implemented by the Company to ensure the
   realization of down payment and the internal control implemented by
   the Company over these business procedures..
   Answer:
   The Company implements a structured procedure to ensure the realization of
   down payment, both for the purchase of goods/services and operational
   needs such as business travel. Each down payment application is
   accompanied by supporting documents and goes through a tiered approval
   process according to the limits of authority.

   Advances for the purchase of goods or services are recorded as current
                                                                                        Page 21

       assets and non-current assets and are reclassified as inventory, fixed assets,
       or expenses after the goods or services are received. This policy is in
       accordance with applicable PSAK.

       In terms of internal control, the Company carries out document verification,
       authorization restrictions, recording in the accounting system, and periodic
       monitoring by the finance team, to ensure that all down payments are used
       according to their intended use and can be properly accounted for.

8. Based on CALK 21 Taxation, there is information on an increase in prepaid
   tax for value added tax (VAT) of Rp758.04 million and a decrease in VAT tax
   debt of Rp1.40 billion. Based on this information, the Company is asked to
   explain the background of the increase in prepaid tax accounts and the
   decrease in VAT tax debt.
   Answer:
   As of March 31, 2025, the balance of Value Added Tax (VAT) debt decreased by
   Rp1.4 billion compared to the position as of December 31, 2024. The decrease
   was mainly due to the settlement of VAT debt from the previous period and the
   compensation mechanism (net-off) between output VAT and input VAT. It should
   be noted that the output VAT balance is the balance owned by Jammin (a
   subsidiary).


   In addition, as of March 31, 2025, the Prepaid Tax balance for VAT recorded an
   increase of Rp758 million compared to the position as of December 31, 2024. This
   increase was also influenced by the compensation mechanism (net off) between
   output VAT and input VAT. It should be noted that the Prepaid Tax balance is a
   balance owned by PT MUTU.

     Company must convey the impact on the achievement of the Company's
     projections.
Answer:
  a. Background to changes in the use of remaining funds from the initial
     public offering of shares, including considerations taken by the
     Company in using the remaining funds from the public offering;
                                                                                    Page 23
Page 24
   Answer:
   The change in the use of funds from those originally allocated for capital
   expenditure (CAPEX) to operational expenditure (OPEX) was carried out
   based on strategic considerations and efficiency in implementing the
   company's operational expansion and development plans.
   Initially, the IPO funds were planned for the purchase/construction of offices to
   support the operations of branch laboratories. However, after further
   evaluation, it was decided that the office rental option was a more flexible and
   efficient choice in the early stages. This decision took into account the need for
   speed in expansion, flexibility in changing strategic locations, and avoiding
   large initial investment burdens that were not necessarily comparable to
   short-term needs. With this change, funds previously allocated for CAPEX can
   be diverted to OPEX which is more strategic and has a direct impact on
   accelerating operations and business growth. The funds are used for licensing
   fees, strengthening and adding HR (Human Resources), financing the
   accreditation process, and increasing operational capacity in supporting the
   Company's business expansion related to:
     ● Acceleration of Halal Certification scheme.
     ● Development of new Certification Scheme VPTI (Import Technical
       Verification or Tracing).
     ● Development of new Certification Schemes, namely the Sustainable
       Biomass Programme (SBP) and Green Gold Label (GGL)
     ● Development of the existing scheme, namely CORSIA Certification
       (Carbon Offsetting and Reporting Scheme for International Aviation)

         The funds are used to support the development of renewable energy
         certification schemes such as the Sustainable Biomass Programme
         (SBP) and Green Gold Label (GGL). This strengthens the Company's
         position in the green energy sector and supports the net-zero emissions
         target.

      2. Shariah Economy
         Investment in national halal certification to accelerate the Halal
         Certification scheme for food and beverage products, cosmetics,
         pharmaceuticals, and other sectors.

      3. Digital Economy
         Although the IPO fund changes are not specifically allocated for digital
         technology, strengthening HR and operations funded from OPEX is
         expected to be the first step in supporting MUTU's readiness to face
         future digitalization opportunities. Because the growing digitalization
         trend in various sectors is also part of the Company's business
         development direction, especially in providing a traceability system for
         natural resources.

    Impact on Operations:
    This change accelerates:
      ● Development of new services such as VPTI and CORSIA.
      ● Strengthening human resources and branch readiness without having to
         buy a building.
      ● Flexibility and efficiency in operations.

    This change in the use of funds is expected to increase the speed, efficiency
    and readiness of MUTU to face market needs while maintaining transparency
    and the interests of public investors.

e. Based on the letter of PT Mutuagung Lestari Tbk number
   8869.77/EXT-MUTU/XII/2024 dated December 10, 2024 regarding the
   Response to the Exchange's Request for Explanation, the Company
   stated that "the target for the use of CAPEX will be realized in 2025". With
   the change in the use of the remaining funds from the public offering, the
   Company must convey the impact on the achievement of the Company's
   projections.

   Answer:
   As previously stated in the Company's letter, the 2025 CAPEX realization plan
   will continue to be implemented, but with adjustments to the allocation and
   amount. Part of the funds from the public offering will continue to be used for
   CAPEX amounting to IDR 4 billion, especially for the procurement of halal
   laboratory equipment. The remainder will be diverted to OPEX to support the
   operationalization of new services that have been projected to directly
   contribute to revenue, Halal Certification, VPTI, and SBP, as well as
                                                                                     Page 26

      strengthening HR capacity and operational efficiency. Thus, the 2025 strategic
      plan will continue to be implemented with a more adaptive approach without
      changing the direction of the Company's financial projections.

      The Company's performance in the first quarter of 2025 showed positive initial
      momentum, with revenue growth of 18.7% and net profit of 31.3% compared to
      the same period the previous year. This momentum is a strong foundation to
      support the successful implementation of the IPO fund usage strategy that has
      been approved through the EGMS on April 30, 2025.

      Thus, the Company remains on track with the 2025 performance projections,
      including strengthening the asset structure and realizing strategic initiatives
      within the Green Economy, Shariah Economy, and Digital Economy
      frameworks.


That's the explanation we can give, I hope it can be well received.

Best regards,
PT Mutuagung Lestari Tbk
