JAKARTA. Indonesian stock market investors have received encouraging news, as several companies are preparing to go public through initial public offerings (IPOs) in the near future.

The Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) recorded that seven companies are currently in the process of preparing for IPOs. Notably, most of these prospective issuers are firms with relatively large asset bases.

Director of Company Valuation at the IDX, I Gede Nyoman Yetna, stated that the stock listing pipeline currently consists of seven companies. He confirmed that these firms remain active candidates for listing, as conveyed on Friday (January 16, 2026).

Of the seven companies, five have total assets exceeding Rp250 billion, placing them in the large-scale category. One company falls into the mid-sized segment with assets ranging between Rp50 billion and Rp250 billion, while the remaining firm is classified as small with assets below Rp50 billion.

From an industry perspective, the IPO pipeline reflects a diverse range of sectors. The lineup includes one company from the basic materials sector, two from financial services, and one each from the energy, industrial, technology, and transportation and logistics sectors.

However, as of January 15, 2026, no company has officially debuted on the exchange. Capital market activity at the start of the year has instead been dominated by the issuance of debt securities and sukuk.

According to the IDX, nine debt and sukuk issuances from seven issuers have been completed during the same period, raising a total of Rp5.85 trillion. In addition, ten more issuances from five issuers remain in the pipeline.

Beyond IPOs, other corporate actions have continued to take place. By mid-January 2026, three companies had completed rights issues totaling Rp2.90 trillion in value, while one property and real estate company remains in the queue to conduct a rights offering.

These developments indicate that although IPO activity has yet to gain momentum early in the year, fundraising in the capital market remains active through alternative instruments.
