(Consolidated)

The parent company's after-tax profit reduced its loss from VND 6,76 billion to VND 2,96 billion, primarily due to the following reasons:

  • Financial income: Achieved VND 9,62 billion, compared to a loss of VND 1,47 billion in Q4/2023. This improvement was mainly attributed to dividends received from a subsidiary during Q4/2024.
  • Other income: The parent company's profit from other activities increased due to gains from the disposal of assets.

The consolidated after-tax profit recorded a profit of VND 28,80 billion, marking an increase of VND 72,45 billion compared to the same period last year (a loss of VND 43,64 billion in Q4/2023), driven by the following factors:

  • Financial income: Consolidated financial income for the period increased significantly by VND 63,59 billion, primarily driven by profit gains from project investment activities during Q4/2024.
  • Additionally, in 2024, the company recognized approximately VND 4,3 billion in profits from its associated company (FECON Hoa Yen Joint Stock Company).
    Yours sincerely!
