Vinpearl (stock code: VPL) has disclosed the disposal of nearly 5.2 million VIC shares in Vingroup (stock code: VIC). The transaction was conducted on 16 April 2026 through a transfer of ownership outside the stock market system, via the Vietnam Securities Depository.
After the deal, Vinpearl’s holding in Vingroup stood at about 85 million VIC shares, equivalent to roughly 1.1% of Vingroup. On the same day, VIC closed at the ceiling price of 189,300 dong per share. Based on this closing price, Vinpearl’s proceeds from the transaction are estimated at about 990 billion dong.
On 24 April 2026, Vinpearl will hold its 2026 annual general meeting. The newly disclosed documents outline several key items for shareholder consideration.
Vinpearl plans to generate 16,000 billion dong in revenue in 2026, a record high and up 3% from last year. Net profit after tax is expected to reach 3,000 billion dong, based on Q1 2026 performance and positive indicators from financial management actions.
Vinpearl also seeks shareholder approval not to pay a dividend for 2025. Another important agenda item is a plan to issue up to 100 million preferred shares with dividend rights, convertible into common shares.
The planned issue price is 80,000 dong per preferred share, implying total potential proceeds of up to 8,000 billion dong.
