However, NVL‘s financial revenue decreased by 30% to VND 640 billion ($27.8 million), due to a decline in revenue from investment cooperation contracts to just over VND 456 billion ($19.8 million). Interest expenses fell by 52%, while financial expenses decreased by only 6% due to higher exchange rate losses.

A highlight for NVL during the period was other income, which reached over VND 107 billion ($4.6 million), compared to just over VND 7 billion ($300,000) in the same period last year.
