Vinalines’ business operations have garnered notable attention recently. During the extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders held in July, several important matters were approved, including the addition of a VND 356 billion investment portfolio for 2024 to facilitate financial restructuring at Cai Lan International Container Terminal (CICT) – a joint venture between SSA (USA) and Cai Lan Port Investment Joint Stock Company (with Vinalines contributing 56% capital).

Vinalines anticipates that CICT will turn profitable annually post-restructuring. Moreover, aside from debt repayment, CICT will have funds available for new investments to enhance discharging productivity, increase cargo throughput, and accommodate additional vessels. For Vinalines, the projected project efficiency stands at an NPV of over 20 million USD, an IRR of 17%, and a capital recovery period of 6.5 years.

In addition to the investment portfolio supplement, the Vinalines’ General Meeting of Shareholders also approved the addition of business lines and amendments to the Company’s Articles of Association.

Reviewing Vinalines’ business performance for the first half of 2024, the company recorded over VND 8,266 billion in net revenue, marking a 34% increase compared to the same period last year. Ultimately, the company achieved a net profit of over VND 1,196 billion, 1.9 times higher than the previous year’s figure for the same period.
