Companies Announcing Cash Dividends for the Week of September 29 – October 3
|
VCF stands out as the most impressive name next week, announcing a staggering 480% cash dividend. With over 265.7 million outstanding shares, this dividend payout amounts to nearly VND 1,276 billion. The ex-dividend date is September 30, with payment scheduled for October 8, 2025.
The majority of this dividend will go to the parent company, Masan Group (HOSE: MSN), which owns nearly 99% of VCF. Recently, VCF announced it no longer meets the requirements for a public company due to this concentrated ownership. According to the list of securities holders by VSDC on July 28, 2025, VCF has a total of 538 shareholders, with Masan Beverage (a subsidiary of MSN) holding 98.79% of the voting shares. The remaining 537 minority shareholders hold only 1.21%.
With such concentrated ownership, VCF fails to meet the minimum requirement of 10% of voting shares held by at least 100 non-major investors, as per the 2024 amended Securities Law.
In second place is NET’s record 65% dividend (VND 6,500 per share). The ex-dividend date is October 1, with payment on October 15. With nearly 22.4 million outstanding shares, the total payout will be approximately VND 146 billion. Major shareholders, holding over 88% of Netco’s capital, will benefit significantly. Vinachem owns 36%, while Masan HPC, a Masan Group subsidiary, holds the controlling stake at 55.25%.
Next is PVI with a 31.5% dividend (VND 3,150 per share). PVI currently has over 234 million outstanding shares, corresponding to a payout of around VND 738 billion. The ex-dividend date is October 1, with payment expected from October 22.
PVI has consistently paid cash dividends for 16 years. In 2021, the company recorded its highest dividend at 33%. While subsequent years haven’t matched this peak, dividends have remained above 30%. The 2024 dividend rate is slightly lower than 2023, reflecting the impact of Typhoon Yagi on business results.
Viettel’s CTR is also notable with a 21.5% dividend (VND 2,150 per share), totaling nearly VND 246 billion. The ex-dividend date is September 30, with payment on October 15.
The Viettel Group, holding 65.66% of CTR’s capital, and Mr. Đoàn Hồng Việt, owning nearly 5%, will be the primary beneficiaries. Mr. Việt also serves as Chairman of Digiworld (HOSE: DGW), a leading technology and consumer electronics distributor in Vietnam.
Additionally, VHC (Vinh Hoan) and TFC (Trang Company) both announced a 20% dividend (VND 2,000 per share). Their ex-dividend dates are September 29 and 30, with payments on October 15 and 24, respectively.
No companies are announcing stock dividends next week.
