Vinalines’ current charter capital is more than VND14.04 trillion. It owned 1.4 billion shares at the price of VND10,000 each. Of the total, 912.933 million shares, or 65% of the firm’s charter capital, belong to the State.
More than 2.29 million shares, or 0.16% of the charter capital, will be sold to labourers of the firm, while some 207.89 million shares, 14.8% of charter capital, will be sold to strategic investors.
The number of shares designated for open auction is nearly 281 million, accounting for 20% of Vinalines’ charter capital.
The adjustment in the structure of Vinalines’ charter capital following share sales was first implemented in November 2017.
The initial price for one share of Vinalines is VND10,000 (US$0.44) per share.
The IPO will be launched in the form of auction through the Hanoi Stock Exchange.
