Aspirasi Hidup Indonesia Posts Rp163.59 Billion Profit in Q1 2026

JAKARTA, Jakartaweekly.com — PT Aspirasi Hidup Indonesia Tbk (ACES) recorded improved performance in the first quarter of 2026, supported by recovering consumer purchasing power and seasonal momentum from Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr.

The company’s director, Gregory S. Widjaja, said the first-quarter results reflect the company’s consistency in executing its strategy, including strengthening its product offering, managing operations, and expanding its store network.

“We are seeing an improvement in customer interest and spending activity, which is a key indicator in sustaining growth,” he said in a statement on Thursday, April 30, 2026.

He added that the company will continue to develop its AZKO and NEKA networks in a measured manner, alongside efforts to improve store productivity and operational efficiency to maintain future growth.

During the January–March 2026 period, the company posted net sales of Rp2.35 trillion, up 10.1% compared to the same period last year. Net profit also rose 18.3% to Rp163.59 billion.

This growth was accompanied by improved transaction quality, reflected in a Same Store Sales Growth (SSSG) of 4.3%. Performance was mainly driven by Jakarta and other regions in Java, while expansion outside Java has begun to contribute solid sales growth.

In terms of expansion, the company added four new stores in the first quarter of 2026, consisting of two AZKO stores and two NEKA stores. As of the end of March 2026, its network reached 267 AZKO stores and 12 NEKA stores across Indonesia.

The company targets adding 65 to 80 new stores this year, comprising 25–30 AZKO stores and 40–50 NEKA stores, as part of efforts to expand its service reach.
