It said selling State capital is an important task of SCIC, noting that despite many unfavorable conditions in the market, the representatives of State capital at the firms have coordinated well with the corporation in solving lingering problems, help build dossiers for the sale of State capital and introduce investors, thus helping to speed up the sale.
In 2016, SCIC successfully sold out of State capital at 71 businesses and sold part of the capital at two firms, gaining over VND 16.11 trillion (USD 708.84 million).
Some businesses with SCIC-managed State capital earned more-than-expected revenues last year such as Bao Minh Joint Stock Company (148 percent higher than the planned revenue), Binh Minh Plastic Joint Stock Company (131 percent), Vietnam Construction and Import-Export Joint Stock Corporation Vinaconex (114 percent), Vietnam Dairy Products Joint Stock Company Vinamilk (113 percent), and DHG Pharma Corporation (111 percent).
The return on equity (ROE) ratio is also very high at many companies such as Vinamilk (42 percent), FPT Telecom Joint Stock Company (29 percent), Binh Minh Plastics (27 percent), and DHG Pharma (25 percent), SCIC noted.
