PT Blue Bird Tbk (BIRD) recorded a green report card throughout the first semester of 2026. The transportation company successfully posted revenue of IDR 2.97 trillion, growing 11.3 percent compared to the same period last year (year-on-year/yoy). This surge in financial performance was accompanied by a net profit of IDR 323.8 billion.
President Director of Blue Bird, Andre Djokosoetono, explained that this positive achievement was inseparable from the company's success in responding to high public mobility. Despite facing various external challenges such as rupiah exchange rate fluctuations, global geopolitical uncertainty, and increasingly fierce industry competition, operational efficiency and strengthening internal investments were still able to maintain the sustainability of the company's business stability.
Conventional taxi services still play a crucial role as the backbone of revenue for the issuer with the stock code BIRD. This sector contributed 69 percent of total revenue after recording a growth of 11.4 percent year-on-year. This increase was driven by the optimization of bookings through digital channels and increased fleet productivity in the field.
On the other hand, the non-taxi business line, which includes vehicle rentals, Bigbird tourist buses, and Cititrans shuttle services, also made an important contribution of 31 percent to total revenue. In this segment, Cititrans emerged as the fastest growth driver thanks to route expansion, fleet additions, and school holiday momentum which significantly boosted passenger volume.
In addition to focusing on transportation services, Blue Bird also maximized asset management by selling reconditioned ex-operational vehicles to meet the demand of the quality used car market. Looking ahead to the second half of 2026, the company is committed to maintaining growth momentum by strengthening its service portfolio, tightening operational budget discipline, and improving fleet reliability.
