Saigon-Hanoi Securities Joint Stock Company (SHS) reported Q1 2026 results with pre-tax profit of VND 280 billion. The company said lending outstanding rose to about VND 10,502 billion, up 126% year-on-year and reaching a new record in its history.
As of March 31, 2026, SHS’s lending stood at roughly VND 10,502 billion, up 15% from the start of the year and up 126% year-on-year. The company attributed the increase to strengthened capital provisioning, risk management, and expanded client activity.
In Q1, brokerage revenue reached nearly VND 97 billion, up 86% from the same period last year, reflecting continued growth in a highly competitive market.
Total assets as of March 31, 2026 were about VND 22,367 billion, up 47% year-on-year.
At the 2026 AGM, SHS announced a comprehensive transformation strategy for 2026–2030. For 2026, the company set targets of VND 3,739 billion in revenue and VND 1,718 billion in pre-tax profit, aiming to reach the Top 10 stock brokers by efficiency and market share.
SHS said it is restructuring its business model toward a sustainable growth platform with a customer-centric philosophy and a Service Branding approach. The company outlined five strategic pillars: customer-centric thinking, enhanced organizational capability and talent, technology investment, best-in-class governance, and sustainable development.
Alongside the business-model shift, SHS approved increasing its charter capital from VND 8,994.6 billion to up to about VND 10,064.4 billion through three components: issuing bonus shares, private placement to investors, and issuing ESOP.
The company stated that the new capital will be prioritized for expanding margin lending, investment activities, and upgrading technology infrastructure—key enablers for the next growth cycle.
SHS also reaffirmed governance by electing Mr. Nguyen Duy Linh, the CEO, as a member of the Board of Directors to strengthen leadership for the new growth phase.
