In regards to the bond issuance, Mr. Nguyen Thanh Hung, General Director, said that as TCD is on the way to accelerate, so the Company will need a large capital for this process. Currently, the company’s owners' equity is only over VND 400 billion, the interest rate is high for working capital loan. So, the company can issue shares to gain financial resources. However, by this way it shall dilute stocks which shall affect shareholders' benefits, that is the reason why the company does not want to. Therefore, TCD has decided to issue convertible bonds to raise the needed funds. The bonds will be 3 years term, interest rate of below 6%, it will be more effective plan to solve issues of stock dilution.

With the 5 years plan from 2018-2023, with our plan to earn more than VND 2,000 billion in revenue and VND 150 billion in profit, the issuance of convertible bonds will be no longer a big concern and will not affect the EPS of the Company.
