In its financial report, GEMS recorded revenue of USD 715.6 million or the equivalent of IDR 11.63 trillion (Jisdor exchange rate: IDR 16,253 per US dollar as of May 30, 2024) in the first quarter of 2024. This revenue decreased by 14.67% compared to the first quarter of 2023, which amounted to USD 838.6 million.
GEMS detailed that this revenue was obtained from foreign sales of USD 509.6 million and domestic sales of USD 206.02 million in the first quarter of 2024.

Sudin explained that the decline in GEMS's revenue and net profit was likely caused by coal prices, which were experiencing a decline compared to last year.
