HCMC – Hoang Huy Investment Financial Services JSC (HOSE: TCH) plans to issue more than 200 million shares to raise capital for two major property projects in the northern port city of Haiphong, reported the local media.
The firm will offer nearly 200.5 million shares at VND10,000 each, with existing shareholders entitled to buy three new shares for every 10 held. The record date for shareholder eligibility is August 21.
The new shares will be freely tradable, except for odd lots or unsubscribed shares sold to external investors, which will be subject to a one-year transfer restriction. Share purchase rights can only be transferred once. The offering is expected to go ahead this year, following approval from the State Securities Commission of Vietnam.
TCH expects to raise over VND2 trillion from the sale. Around VND1.2 trillion will be allocated to the Hoang Huy Green River project, while VND805 billion will go to the Hoang Huy Commerce – Tower H2 project.
The Hoang Huy Green River development, with a total investment of over VND4.05 trillion, spans 32.5 hectares and includes 780 terraced houses, 447 social housing units, and various urban amenities. Infrastructure has been largely completed, and phase one, with 282 units, has reached the third floor of construction. Revenue from this project is projected to begin in late 2025.
The Hoang Huy Commerce – Tower H2 project comprises a 36-story residential building covering nearly one hectare, with an investment of VND2.2 trillion. Construction has reached the first floor, and sales are expected to begin within one to two months. The project is scheduled for completion in about 20 months.
