HCMC – Yeah1 Group Corporation, whose YEG shares are listed on the Hochiminh Stock Exchange, has passed a plan to sell and acquire stakes in multiple firms, including buying shares of STV Group Multimedia Company.
Yeah1 looks set to buy almost 2.3 million shares, or a 51% stake, of STV Group Multimedia Company in the third quarter of this year to make STV Multimedia Company a subsidiary of Yeah1.
STV Group Multimedia Company was established in 2008, with its head office located in Hanoi’s Ba Dinh District. It mainly operates in television broadcasting.
Meanwhile, Yeah1 Group will sell about 1.5 million shares at Yeah1 Brand Name Development Corporation where the Group owns a 99% stake. Once the deal is done, Yeah1 Brand Name Development Corporation will be no longer a business arm of the Group.
Besides, Yeah1 will sell its entire stake in TNT Advertising Communication Corporation. As of March 31 this year, Yeah1 had a 100% voting right at TNT Advertising Communication Corporation.
As for the Group’s business performance, YEG’s revenue in the first quarter of this year reached VND67.5 billion, down nearly 77% year-on-year. Its after-tax profit in the first quarter was VND0.84 billion while the same period last year saw a loss of VND52.52 billion.
