On April 25, 2026, Kỹ Thương Securities Joint Stock Company (TCBS) successfully held the 2026 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders in Hanoi, marking an important milestone since its listing on HOSE in October 2025.
TCBS said it continues to strengthen its leading position in Vietnam’s securities industry for the seventh consecutive year, reporting the highest profits in the sector and exceeding its business plan.
TCBS reported revenue of VND 11,217 billion, up 47% from 2024 and 20% above the plan. Pretax profit reached VND 7,109 billion, up 48%, completing 123% of the plan.
Operating efficiency remained high, with ROE at 16.7%, ROA at 8.4%, and the cost-to-income ratio (CIR) at 13.7%, described as the lowest in the sector. Pretax profit per employee averaged VND 13.2 billion.
The company reported total assets of VND 80,632 billion (+51%) and equity of VND 44,100 billion (+68%). TCBS also stated its capital adequacy ratio (CAR) was 490%, well above minimum requirements.
TCBS maintained top positions in several core business areas, including leading market share in corporate bond underwriting advisory, leading margin lending, and maintaining Top 3 market share in stock brokerage on HOSE.
Alongside growth, TCBS advanced its WealthTech strategy, implementing more than 1,350 technology projects during the year. The company said this expanded its AI ecosystem and upgraded its trading platform, improving operating efficiency and customer experience.
TCBS also reported continued growth in its client base, surpassing 1.2 million customers.
At the meeting, Chairman Nguyen Xuan Minh and CEO Nguyen Thi Thu Hien outlined strategic directions amid a volatile global macro environment, including inflation pressures, geopolitical tensions, and exchange-rate fluctuations. They said Vietnam’s economy continues to shift toward higher-quality and sustainable growth, supported by political stability, a flexible monetary policy, and effective domestic drivers.
Shareholders endorsed all proposals from the Board of Directors and approved the plan to pay the 2025 dividend in stock.
TCBS is expected to issue ordinary shares with a par value of VND 10,000 per share at a 20% ratio, corresponding to a 5:1 rights issue (holders of 5 shares on the record date will receive 1 new share). The funds will come from undistributed post-tax profits as audited on December 31, 2025. All issued shares will be freely transferable.
The company said the issuance is expected to be completed within 45 days from the State Securities Commission’s confirmation of receipt of full documentation for the issuance.
