The Board of Directors of UIC has decided to halt the implementation of a cooperation agreement involving capital contribution in the form of land-use rights for a planned apartment building project located in Hoa An Ward, Bien Hoa City, Dong Nai Province.
Almost a year ago, on October 11, 2023, UIC approved a plan to collaborate with IDICO-URBIZ (a subsidiary of IDICO) by establishing a joint venture with a proposed charter capital of VND 40 billion. As per the agreement, UIC was to contribute 49% in cash and land-use rights for a plot of land measuring 2,208 square meters, while IDICO-URBIZ would contribute the remaining 51% in cash, amounting to VND 20.4 billion.
However, with this decision to discontinue the partnership, the UIC Board of Directors has instructed the Company’s Director to carry out the necessary procedures to terminate the investment in IDICO Urban and Housing Development Company. Additionally, they are tasked with coordinating with IDICO-URBIZ to dissolve this joint venture.
The Company is now directed to seek capable partners for collaboration on the apartment project, subject to approval by authorized agencies, to ensure the project’s investment efficiency.
It is worth noting that IDICO (HNX: IDC) is the parent company of both UIC (with a 66.93% stake) and IDICO-URBIZ (wholly owned).
In the first half of 2024, UIC reported a 13% increase in post-tax profit to over VND 22 billion, on the back of an 18% rise in net revenue to more than VND 1,353 billion. The majority of the revenue was generated from the electricity business, contributing nearly VND 1,340 billion, an increase of 18% compared to the previous year.
