If calculated based on the closing-adjusted transaction value of each session, VHM is estimated to have spent nearly VND 10.5 trillion on the above 247 million treasury shares.

On the other hand, on the last day VHM bought treasury shares (November 21), foreign investors strongly net sold this stock with a value of nearly VND 961 billion, KBC ranked second with just over VND 148 billion.

According to the plan, VHM expects to buy back a maximum of 370 million treasury shares, equivalent to 8.5% of the total outstanding shares. The company announced that the purpose of the buyback is to protect the company’s and shareholders’ interests as the market price of VHM shares is currently lower than their intrinsic value.

The source of capital for the buyback is from the undistributed after-tax profit as of December 31, 2023, according to the 2023 audited financial statements. Accordingly, VHM‘s undistributed after-tax profit at this time is more than VND 133 billion, up nearly 34% compared to the beginning of the year.
