Nhất Việt Securities Joint Stock Company (ticker: VFS) has approved a plan to issue shares to pay the 2025 dividend, following the annual General Meeting of Shareholders (Resolution No. 01/2026/NQ-ĐHĐCĐ dated 15/04/2026).
Under the approved resolution, the company will pay dividends in the form of shares at a rate of 10% of the total outstanding shares. This corresponds to issuing nearly 14 million additional shares. The rights issue ratio is 10:1, meaning a shareholder holding 10 shares will receive 1 additional share.
The issuance will be funded from the company’s undistributed after-tax profits based on the audited financial statements for 2025. Shares issued as dividends to existing shareholders are not subject to transfer restrictions. Shares that are subject to transfer restrictions will still receive shares from the issuance. Treasury shares (if any) will not be entitled to exercise rights.
The implementation period is scheduled for Q2–Q3/2026. If the dividend distribution is completed as planned, VFS expects its chartered capital to rise to nearly VND 1,540 billion.
