HCMC – Coteccons Construction, which trades its CTD shares on the Hochiminh Stock Exchange, looks to obtain over VND16.2 trillion in revenue and VND233 billion in profit this year, up 12% and 1,010% over 2022.

The figures were released at the company’s general meeting of shareholders today, April 25.

This is a high target given that unfavorable market conditions are expected to linger on for the construction and real estate industries.
