By the end of the offering period on August 29, SSI had distributed 100% of the offered shares to 18 investors. Of these, 38.14 million shares were allocated to domestic investors, and 65.89 million shares were allocated to foreign investors.

SSI will use 50% of the proceeds to supplement capital for investing in deposit certificates, and the remaining 50% will be used to supplement capital for lending in margin trading activities.
With the conclusion of this offering, SSI’s chartered capital has increased from VND 19,738.6 billion to VND 20,779 billion.
Thus, SSI has completed two out of three approved plans to increase its chartered capital, as resolved at the 2025 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders. The remaining plan yet to be executed involves issuing shares under an employee stock ownership program.
In other news, SSI will hold an Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders in the afternoon of September 25, 2025, at the Reunification Hall – 135 Nam Ky Khoi Nghia, Ben Thanh Ward, Ho Chi Minh City.
The key agenda item for this meeting is to discuss the plan to offer a maximum of 415.58 million shares to existing shareholders through the exercise of pre-emptive rights.
The entitlement ratio is 5:1, meaning that for every five shares owned, shareholders will have the right to buy one new share. The offered shares will not be restricted from transfer. Shareholders owning restricted shares will still be entitled to purchase new shares. The expected timeline for the offering is 2025-2026.
The expected offering price is VND 15,000 per share. If the offering is successful, SSI expects to raise a maximum of VND 6,234 billion to supplement capital for investment and lending in margin trading activities.
