TELEKOMUNIKASI INDONESIA INTERNATIONAL (USA) PLANS TO ACQUIRE GTA

Jakarta, June 01, 2015 . PT Telkom Indonesia (Persero) Tbk through one of its international operation arms, Telekomunikasi Indonesia International (USA) Inc. (“Telkom USA”), announced that on May 29, 2015, it has reached a definitive agreement with funds serviced by Advantage Partners, toward the acquisition of the latter’s equity in AP Teleguam Holdings, Inc. parent company of GTA Teleguam (“GTA”). The transaction is subject to the required Guam and USA federal regulatory approvals. Once the sale closes, GTA will become part of Telkom’s portfolio of international operations.

The acquisition will strengthen Telkom’s portfolio of international operations which include Telin Singapore, Telin Hong-Kong, Telkom Australia, Telkom Taiwan, Telkom USA, Telin Malaysia, Telkom Macau, Telin Timor-Leste and a branch in Myanmar.

“We are very excited to bring GTA into the Telkom family of international operations,” said Mr. Honesti Basyir, President Commissioner of Telkom International. “Guam is a very interesting market and a great fit for our international expansion. It is geographically strategic, has one of the highest GDP per capita among Asian markets with well-educated workforce pool, and is a great adopter of new mobile and fixed technology.”

Telkom and GTA have had a relationship for more than a year now, stemming from their partnership in the South East Asia United States (SEA-US) submarine cable system. The two are part of a consortium working to build capacity to meet the growing demand for bandwidth between Southeast Asia and North America.

“Our involvement in the SEA-US cable project gave us an opportunity to get to know GTA quite well,” said Mr. Basyir. “GTA is a strong and well-respected brand. It’s the largest, fastest growing telecommunications company in its home market. It has a commitment to providing an excellent customer experience. It’s a quality and technology leader in mobile, landline, and Internet business. It has a high-performing employee base. And we really appreciate its commitment to giving back to the community.”

Robert Haulbrook, President and CEO of GTA, commented: “After 10 years of private-equity ownership, I believe this is a good time to transition the company to a successful international telecommunications firm such as Telkom. Since our privatization in 2005, employees have successfully transformed GTA into a rapidly growing company with a reputation for excellence in landline, mobile and Internet products. They brought new services for Guam customers, including the launch of the GSM and 4G LTE networks, digital TV services, and investments to its fiber optic network.”

Haulbrook added: “GTA has been able to retain the local management and local Guam culture even though we have been owned by offshore investors for ten years. We expect the transition to new ownership to be seamless for both employees and customers. I’m certain that GTA will greatly benefit from the wealth of knowledge, investment focus, technical proficiency and employee development for which Telkom is known.”

Sincerely yours,
