Gelex has no need to increase ownership ratio at Viglacera

At the meeting, shareholders were particularly interested in the progress of State capital divestment at Viglacera and the possibility of Gelex Group increasing its ownership ratio at the enterprise.

At the congress, Mr. Nguyen Van Tuan informed that the Ministry of Construction is actively supporting the corporation in the divestment process. Recently, Viglacera and Gelex have promoted working with many potential strategic investors, however, the parties are still hesitant due to concerns related to tax issues and stock valuation.

On Gelex’s side, Mr. Tuan affirmed that this enterprise has no need to increase its ownership ratio at Viglacera. He also emphasized that after being approved by the shareholders’ meeting, the company will carry out a comprehensive restructuring to aim for sustainable development in the future.

In response to shareholders' concerns about the impact of US tariff policies, Mr. Tran Ngoc Anh, Deputy General Director of VCG, said that this will certainly affect investor sentiment and they are re-evaluating their plans.

However, he said that the company still has many advantages this year, as some existing businesses in Viglacera's industrial parks (IPs) continue to expand production. Evidence is that the company has signed a number of additional land lease contracts recently, although these contracts are not large in scale.

Besides, the company is also focusing on exploiting customer groups that are less affected by exports to the US.
