INDOFOOD’S FIRST QUARTER 2009 FINANCIAL RESULT

Jakarta, 30 APRIL 2009 – PT Indofood Sukses Makmur Tbk (“Indofood”) today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2009, reporting consolidated net sales of Rp8.91 trillion, grew 0.7% from Rp8.85 trillion in the same quarter last year.

The Consumer Branded Product (“CBP”) Group, which now consists of Noodles, Food Seasoning, Snack Foods, Nutrition & Special Foods, and Dairy Division, contributed 44.5% to consolidated net sales, an increase from 31.7% in the same period last year, partly due to the consolidation of Indolakto (Dairy Division), which was acquired in late December 2008.

Bogasari Group contribution to consolidated net sales increased to 31.1% from 29.1% in the same quarter last year, mainly due to the increase in sales volume, despite lower average selling price. Contribution from Agribusiness Group declined to 19.0% from 27.7% due to lower CPO prices. Contribution from Distribution Group also dropped to 5.4% from 11.5% principally because the dairy sales is now included in the CBP Group.

Gross profit declined 6.1% to Rp2.26 trillion from Rp2.41 trillion primarily due to lower CPO price. Consequently, operating profit declined to Rp1.13 trillion from Rp1.22 trillion. Gross margin declined to 25.4% from 27.2% and operating margin declined to 12.7% from 13.8%. Net profit declined to Rp110.4 billion from Rp373.5 billion as a result of foreign exchange losses and higher financing cost. Excluding non-recurring items and foreign exchange losses, core profit remains strong at Rp368.5 billion, declined slightly from Rp386.4 billion in the same quarter last year.

Anthoni Salim, the President Director and Chief Executive Officer of Indofood, said: “The rupiah weakness continued to undermine our bottom line. Our overall results from operations remains resilient to the various challenges presented, reflecting the strength of our business model”.
