FPT
Past Present - Future
re there the
argument between
Truong Dinh Anh and
FPTs management?
As can be seen clearly for the table, the total revenue is 25.350 billion
VND in 2012, it decreased than 2011 with 25.975 billion VND.
Moreover, ROE and EPS also deceased. In the September in 2013,
the EPS of FPT is only 4.134 VND/share. This affects to the choice
the investment. So, the leave of Orchid Fund is normal.
After 25 years of existence, The desire of the large and strong
change is probably the brief description of the number one
information technology group in Vietnam at this time. However,
implementation is another story, though FPT has accumulated a lot of
experience from decades past.
In 2012, the Group's results achieved do not like that. Although the
planned profit is down 15% but finally, FPT only completed 92% of
the plan. This year, the result is not much brighter, as the first 6
months consolidated revenue increased 9%, profit before tax
increased by 6% over the same period. Perhaps to reach the Forbes
500 list as expectation, the ship can accommodate tens of thousands
of people have to go much fast. But this ship around is not easy to
overcome challenges, such as competition from rivals, the creativity,
the constant change of technology and market taste.

Furthermore, for nine months in 2013, FPT earned VND 1,839 billion of pretax profit.
According to 2013 third-quarter business result recently published, FPT earned total revenue of VND
7,547 billion, increasing by 23% compared to the same period last year. Profit-before-tax of the
third-quarter reached VND 563 billion, increasing by 2% compared to the same period in 2012.
After nine months, FPT earned a total revenue of VND 20,030 billion, increasing by 14% compared
to the same period last year and exceeding 11% of the 9-month plan, equivalent to 74% of the year
plan . Profit-before-tax reached VND 1,839 billion, increasing by 5% compared to the same period in
2012, completing 105% of the eight-month plan, equal to 70% of the year plan.
Profit-after-tax was VND 1,524 billion and profit-after-tax of holding company was VND 1,134
billion, respectively increasing 6% and 4% compared to the same period of the prior year,
completing 69% and 70% of plan for the entire year. Earnings per share (EPS) were VND 4,134, an
increase of 3% compared to the same period last year.
However, the one of reasons making the reduction of FPTs profit is the economy crisis
Vietnam and over the world.
Economic Report for the first nine months of 2013 issued by the Ministry of Planning and
Investment shows that many important economic indicators have improved significantly.
Estimatedly, the GDP has increased 5.14 percent compared with the same period in 2012, improving
steadily over each quarter (first quarter: 4.89 percent, second quarter: 5 percent). In which, GDP of
key areas such as agriculture, forestry and fisheries rose 2.39 percent, construction and industry 5.02
percent and services about 6.25 percent. The index of industrial production (IIP) also has shown
gradual growth over the early months of 2013: 4.9 percent in the first 3 months, 5 percent in the 6
months, and 5.4 percent in the 9 months.
As for foreign direct investment (FDI), as of September 20th 2013, there were 872 projects granted
investment certificates with a total registered capital of US$9.3 billion. ODA and preferential loans
during the first nine months has reached US$4.59 billion, an increase of 8.83 percent compared to
the same period last year, of which the disbursed amount was US$3.13 billion.
However, another pessimistic assessment from Head of the PCCs Economic Commission, Mr
Vuong Dinh Hue warned that many objectives of socioeconomic development set out at the 11th
Party Congress could not be completed in time, leading to the prospect of Vietnam lagging far more
behind than other regional economy. Additionally, many core weaknesses of the economy which
exist for a long time, now fuelled by the global financial crisis and economic downturn has been
clearly exposed.
Based on these facts, Vietnams GDP in 2013 was set to 5.4 percent increase. GDP estimated for
2011-2015 was 5.8 percent, fails to meet the initial target of 7 - 7.5 percent increase (after being
raised from 6.5 - 7 percent). Meanwhile, inflation rate for the period was thought would grow 9.2
percent while the objective was of 5 - 7 percent increase. In short, while the macro economy full of

recovery indicators continue to send out weak signals, Vietnam is stuck in a dilemma, having been
forced to choose either enhancing growth or controlling inflation.
