PT Astra International Tbk — Cyborg Score 7/10

Strong
Diversified Automotive & Conglomerate

Strategic Profile

Astra holds 50-60% domestic market share in automotive, its core business. For the past 10+ years, Astra has been actively searching for new growth drivers in multiple sectors, with management announcing capital deployment plans on non-coal minerals, infrastructure, and healthcare sectors. The company benefits from high liquidity as one of the most liquid stocks on the IDX with strong domestic and global institutional support.

Cyborg Score Rationale

Astra consistently generates IDR23-28tn in free cash flow post-COVID with stable 9-12% FCF yield, enabling portfolio optimization and capital returns. FY26 outlook is supported by auto regulatory reset on BEV incentives expected to redirect demand to Astra's brands. However, the company faces EV transition challenges, commodity price volatility in coal and palm oil, and currency fluctuation risks.
