VRE-Brief-[NONRATED]-Faring well amid the abnormal post – outbreak
On Jul 28, we tuned in to VRE’s 2Q23, and the presentation covered how the weather the storm of tightening retail consumption amid the inflation fear. VRE released the 2Q23 on Jul 28, featuring a VND2,172.8bn revenue (+17.5% yoy, +11.8% qoq) and a VND1,000.6bn NPAT (+29.4% yoy, -2.3% qoq). We selectively fancy VRE thanks to its earnings turnaround in 2023 which also is factored in the market expectation but we skeptically expect VRE could weather the storm. The decreasing demand for consumption is saw widely across the economic indicators.
