After receiving a clarification request from HOSE, VSC explained that the upward movement was due to objective supply and demand dynamics in the Vietnamese stock market, coupled with the company’s positive business results for the first half of the year.
“At present, production and business activities are proceeding as usual, in accordance with the established plan, and there are no abnormal issues in the operations of VSC. We commit to having disclosed information fully in accordance with the law and that there is no subjective influence aimed at affecting the trading price of VSC shares in the stock market” – excerpt from VSC‘s clarification report.
Following the consecutive ceiling-hitting sessions, VSC stock price declined by 3.3% on August 19, closing at VND 35,000/share. Compared to the beginning of the year, VSC has posted an impressive 183% gain, accompanied by an average daily trading volume of over 8.9 million shares.

In related news, VietinBank Capital Joint Stock Company recently announced that it is no longer a major shareholder of VSC after selling more than 15 million shares on August 14, reducing its ownership from over 25.5 million shares (6.82%) to 10.5 million shares (2.8%).
In its recent disclosures of VSC share sales, Vietinbank Capital sold 17.5 million shares on July 25, 10.1 million shares on July 29, and another 15 million shares on August 12. Thus, the fund management company has executed four sell-offs totaling over 57.6 million shares within just one month.
This significant reduction in ownership occurred just before VSC‘s ex-dividend date for the upcoming extraordinary general meeting on August 22, with the record date being August 21. The meeting aims to approve adjustments to the company’s 2025 profit-before-tax plan and other matters within the competence of the general meeting.
Previously, at the 2025 Annual General Meeting, a revenue plan of VND 2,790 billion and a profit-before-tax target of VND 400 billion were approved. With nearly VND 312 billion in profit before tax in the first half of the year (up 54% over the same period last year), the company has achieved 78% of this plan.
In another recent development, on August 15, the VSC Board of Directors passed a resolution to contribute capital to establish Hai An Green Shipping Lines Company Limited. This company is a limited liability company with two or more members, and VSC holds a 60% stake.
On the same day, Hai An Shipping and Stevedoring Joint Stock Company (HOSE: HAH) also announced its contribution of 40% capital to Hai An Green Shipping Lines. The new company has a charter capital of VND 1,000 billion, headquartered in Hai An Building, Hai Phong City.
