PT Bank Tabungan Negara (Persero) Tbk, known as BTN, is considering a share buyback program after its chief executive determined the stock is trading below its intrinsic value.
Nixon LP Napitupulu, the bank's director general, indicated that management is actively reviewing the repurchase option to address what he views as an undervaluation in the market.
The proposed buyback has not yet been incorporated into the bank's official Business Plan (Rencana Bisnis Bank or RBB).
This procedural gap suggests the initiative remains in the exploratory phase, pending internal approval and regulatory alignment before any capital can be deployed.
For investors, the distinction is critical: while the signal is positive, the absence of a formalized plan means no immediate cash return is guaranteed.
BTN's move mirrors a broader trend among Indonesian state-owned enterprises seeking to support shareholder value amid volatile market conditions.
