                        626 Billion in 1H24

Today, Matahari ("Company"; stock code: "LPPF") released its financial results for the
first half of 2024, highlighting the impact of a challenging Lebaran and weak on-going
consumer spending. Despite these issues, the Company continued with progress on
strategic initiatives.

Sales for the period were IDR 7.23 trillion, a decrease of 2.2% compared to 1H23,
equivalent to -2.8% SSSG. Gross Margin was 34.9%, down from 35.4% in the same
period last year, due to stock clearance activities early in the year. Earnings Before
Interest Tax, Depreciation, and Amortization amounted to IDR 988 Bn, with Net Income
at IDR 626 Bn. Based on first half results, Management projects FY 2024 EBITDA of IDR
1.2 trillion.

Matahari progressed on its strategic initiatives, especially in merchandising. The
Company aims to boost productivity by expanding the space and product range of
its major consignment brands. Private label brands are being rebranded to enhance
customer appeal, and the in-house brand SUKO is poised to expand into more stores.

Matahari will continue leveraging influencers and social media to increase brand
awareness. A major campaign is planned for the second half of 2024, focusing on
community building and enhancing brand engagement.

Digital initiatives are advancing, with 58% of consignment vendors (CV) now
onboarded onto the supplier platform. User experience is expected to improve with
greater CV assortment, live commerce, fulfilment from stores and improved search
features.

The Company is postponing new store openings for the second half of the year, being
selective about opening in high-quality malls.

The Company remains focused on cost management. Rental negotiation in the first
half resulted in savings, supported by rental rebates and variable rental agreements.
Labor productivity initiatives planned for the second half are also expected to yield
results.

“Our results in the first half reflect the persistent weakness in consumer spending,
particularly for apparel and footwear. However, we remain committed to our
strategic growth initiatives,” stated Monish Mansukhani, CEO of Matahari. “We are
focused on enhancing our operations and expanding our reach to serve our
customers better.”
