Techcom Securities Joint Stock Company (TCBS) has just announced a document to solicit shareholders' opinions on the plan to increase its charter capital to more than VND23,100 billion through an initial public offering (IPO). Accordingly, this securities company will increase its charter capital from the current level of VND20,801 billion to a maximum of VND23,113 billion, through offering 231.15 million common shares to the public, equivalent to 11.112% of its existing capital.
Regarding the issuance price, the Board of Directors is authorized to decide the offering price based on the market situation and the principle of not being lower than the book value of a share according to the most recent quarterly financial report. According to the financial report for the first quarter of 2025, the book value of TCBS is about VND 13,900/share.
Although the specific offering price has not been announced, with the amount of money raised in the thousands of billions of VND, TCBS said it will spend 70% to invest in securities trading activities and 30% for brokerage activities, margin trading and other legal business activities. According to the plan, the IPO will take place between the third quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2026.
The consultation was approved by the board of directors in mid-June and the shareholder list was finalized on June 24. TCBS's plan to increase capital through IPO has long been of interest to investors and has become "hotter" in recent months. Sharing at the annual general meeting of shareholders of Techcombank - the parent company that owns 100% of TCBS, the bank's leader said that the bank has worked with 1-2 major investors and has been assessed very positively. Mr. Ho Hung Anh - Chairman of the Board of Directors of Techcombank also plans to conduct TCBS IPO at the end of 2025, but will depend a lot on the financial market, market trends and the story of upgrading the Vietnamese stock market.
In a recent report from VNDIRECT Research, this securities company assessed that the TCBS IPO could open up a “promising story” not only for this securities company but also for Techcombank, thanks to the expectation of asset revaluation, creating more profit margins in the long term.
As of March 31, 2025, TCBS's total assets are approximately VND 56,329 billion, ranking first among securities companies in the market. Of which, equity capital currently reaches more than VND 27,294 billion.
Regarding business results, TCBS's after-tax profit in the first quarter of 2025 reached more than VND 1,310 billion, a stable growth compared to the same period. Revenue mainly comes from margin lending activities and securities underwriting and agency services. TCBS sets a pre-tax profit target of VND 5,765 billion in 2025, an increase of 20% compared to the previous year.
