According to the plan approved by the General Meeting of Shareholders in the form of written opinions in May 2025, HAX intended to auction the land with a starting price of no less than VND 180 million/sqm, corresponding to a minimum transfer value of VND 1,131 billion.

However, according to the document sent by the auction organizer to HAX, by 5:00 PM on July 31, no individuals or units had purchased the invitation to bid, submitted participation documents, or paid the deposit. Therefore, the auction scheduled for August 5 could not proceed as planned.

To acquire this plot of land spanning nearly 6,300 sqm, in 2022, HAX spent approximately VND 470 billion to purchase a 5,800 sqm residential land plot from N&T Investment Joint Stock Company and Mr. Bui Trung Quan at a price of about VND 81 million/sqm. Recently, the Company continued to spend nearly VND 73 billion to buy the remaining 500 sqm from the Chairman of the Board of Directors, Do Tien Dung, equivalent to VND 150 million/sqm. A notable feature of this land is its impressive 85-meter frontage on Vo Van Kiet Street.

After completing the purchase of the land from the Chairman, the total book value of HAX‘s land asset as of the end of 2024 was VND 542 billion.

At the 2025 Annual General Meeting, the HAX leadership still considered this land a “reserve” and was not in a hurry to develop large-scale projects. Mr. Dung stated that the Company lacked the financial resources and experience to undertake projects such as constructing buildings or apartments on their own. Meanwhile, joint ventures with other parties entail risks of dependence.

In 2025, the Company plans to explore efficient land utilization options while remaining open to the possibility of selling should real estate prices surge. As the distributor of Mercedes and MG vehicles, HAX prioritizes stability and safety in the current economic climate, opting against excessive investment or debt accumulation. Notably, before announcing the unsuccessful auction of the land, a series of leaders and relatives had significantly divested from HAX.
