VMSC has continued registering to sell more than 2.45 million MSB shares after two earlier transactions failed due to unfavorable market conditions. The company currently still holds more than 2.45 million MSB shares, equivalent to 0.078% of MSB’s charter capital.
Immediately after the latest registration, VMSC registered to dispose of the entire quantity of shares during the period from April 14, 2026 to May 13, 2026. If the sale is completed as registered, VMSC would exit MSB entirely.
Earlier, from February 23, 2026 to February 13, 2026, VMSC also failed to complete the sale of more than 2.45 million MSB shares, citing market conditions.
Separately, MSB recently published materials for its 2026 annual general meeting scheduled for April 24, 2026. Among the proposals, MSB set a 2026 pre-tax profit target of VND 8,000 billion, up 13% compared with 2025.
MSB also proposed a credit growth target of 18%, which would bring total outstanding loans to VND 244,000 billion. Total assets are expected to reach VND 460,000 billion, up 13%, while deposits and bonds are expected to amount to VND 280,000 billion, up 24%. The bank plans to keep the non-performing loan ratio (groups 3–5) below 3%.
For 2025 profit distribution, MSB plans to issue shares from shareholder equity as of December 31, 2025, after allocating funds as required with a 20% ratio. Specifically, MSB plans to issue up to 624 million shares to raise charter capital from VND 31,200 billion to VND 37,440 billion. The additional shares are proposed to have no transfer restrictions, with implementation planned for 2026.
MSB stated that the issuance aims to strengthen its competitive position by increasing scale, improving financial safety indicators, supporting mid- and long-term lending, upgrading facilities, and investing in the bank’s systems.
MSB also proposed a plan to contribute capital to a fund management company so that the company becomes an MSB subsidiary.
