VNM: AGM note
Technical View
Fixed income
The VN-Index dropped suddenly by 3.08% (17.32 points), breaking through the
nearest technical support at 560, and closing at a daily low of 545.08, on
increased market liquidity. 29 out of 30 of the VN30 stocks fell yesterday,
including IJC and OGC, which dropped to their floor prices. Among the most
heavily traded tickers, FLC and BID also fell to their floor prices. GAS, PVD, CTG,
VCB etc. all fell by 4-6%. In other words, market sentiment was bearish, and was
then further scared by the sudden market movement. Foreign investors
continued accumulating stock, with a net buying value of approximately US$ 11
million. However, at the end of trading, when domestic investors increased
supply and pushed down prices, these investors did not support the market,
though stocks became more attractive.
The sudden market drop might be because local investors overreacted on
China’s Hung Vuong Oil Rig which moved to the East Sea. Even though the oil rig
is still far away from Vietnam’s sea area, this news remind local investors on the
market extreme condition exactly 1 year ago and created the market panic.
Local investors have to get used with these news as tensions with China will
continue in future and we still have to build our economy.
Besides, there are more fundamental issues that should be noted. Firstly, there
is rising concern about NPLs in the banking sector, as the Government Inspector
asked the SBV to monitor Bitexco’s VND 1.7 trillion loan, and an SBV report
showed that NPLs rose to 3.5% in Jan 2015. Secondly, banks adjusted the
USD/VND exchange rate up by 20-30 points after the long holiday, though the
official and free market exchange rates were still within the legal limits.
However, the government’s request that the SBV look into a mechanism
allowing the Treasury to ‘borrow’ from the national foreign currency reserve
might be the most concerned issue. In any case, these issues are not new and
cannot entirely explain the sudden market drop.
From a technical perspective, with this sudden drop, the VN-Index has reversed
its uptrend and is heading to the next technical support at 540 – 536, which is
not very strong. If the VN-Index continues down past this support, the next
target will be close to 500, a 12M low. With the sudden drop, margin call
activities might return in upcoming trading sessions. Even though the current
retail margin outstanding might be relatively low, margin calls might have a
serious effect on some stocks. With the high risk and great uncertainty, short-

term investors might want to stay out or get out of the market. For long-term
investors, we do not see any reason to sell at this time.

Company/Sector News and Comments
VNM: AGM note
We attended Vinamilk JSC’s (HSX: VNM) AGM in late April. Here are some key points:

In 2014, VNM delivered VND34,977bn in net revenue (c.$1.64bn; +13% YoY), VND7,613bn in EBT ($357m; -5% YoY) and
VND6,068bn in EAT (c.$285m; -7% YoY), meeting 98% and 101% of its full-year targets respectively. 2014 EPS was
VND6,068. Although generally outperforming its 5-year targets, these growth rates are down from previous years, due to
a combination of intense competition, rising selling expenses, turbulent raw material prices, the government’s price cap
for infant milk and the company’s swelling size. However, the good news is that the company’s effort to secure its position
in Vietnam’s dairy market seems to have worked, as it has expanded its market share to 51% of the liquid milk segment
and 24% for powdered milk.

In 2014, VNM put two more farms in Ha Tinh and Thanh Hoa into operation, raising the number of farms it owns to 7,
with approximately 11,000 cows. In addition, VNM continued to expand cooperation with farmers, who own another
77,000 head.

2015 business plan: Although the tougher business environment may endure, in our opinion, 2015 will likely be a better
year as global raw material prices will calm down. VNM targets net revenue of VND38,424bn (+10% YoY), EBT of
VND8,229bn (+8% YoY) and EAT of VND6,830bn (+12.6% YoY (this is higher than EBT growth because of some tax
incentives from new factories, according to the company)). $3bn in revenue in 2017 is still the company’s goal.

Regarding the 2015 dividend plan, the company has scheduled a first interim dividend payment of VND2,000 cash per
share in Sep 2015. A subsequent payment will take place in May 2016. Also, a bonus share issuance at a 5:1 ratio is
planned for 3Q2015.

Technical View
The VN30 index dropped dramatically yesterday, after bad news came out of the East Sea, even while trading volume increased
significantly, which suggests that the buying pressure is still strong. The short-term market trend is now rather unclear, however,
the index may have a minor rebounding to the weak resistance at 585 points before settling on a trend.
