HSC Leader Registers to Sell 350,000 HCM Shares

Recently, Mr. Lê Anh Quân, the authorized information disclosure representative of Ho Chi Minh City Securities Corporation (HSC, Stock Code: HCM, HoSE), issued a notice regarding insider stock transactions.

According to the announcement, Mr. Quân has registered to sell 350,000 HCM shares to restructure his investment portfolio. The transaction is expected to take place via order matching from December 2, 2025, to December 31, 2025.

If successful, Mr. Quân’s HCM shareholdings will decrease from over 1.51 million shares to more than 1.16 million shares, reducing his ownership stake from 0.14% to 0.108% of HSC’s capital.

Previously, during the trading session on October 29, 2025, Mr. Quân sold only 4,000 out of the 350,000 HCM shares he had registered earlier. The incomplete transaction was attributed to share prices falling below expectations.

Following this transaction, Mr. Quân’s ownership in HSC remained largely unchanged, decreasing slightly from nearly 1.52 million shares to over 1.51 million shares (0.14% ownership).

It is noted that Mr. Lê Anh Quân also serves as the Executive Director of the Communications Division at HSC and is the brother of Mr. Lê Anh Minh, Vice Chairman of HSC’s Board of Directors.

In other developments, HSC previously announced its receipt of Decision No. 397/QĐ-XPHC dated November 7, 2025, imposing administrative penalties.

According to the decision, HSC committed two administrative violations.

For these two violations, HSC was fined a total of 125 million VND.
