FRT posted a 9M revenue of VND 11,033 bn (+20%) and profit of 227.4 bn (+30%) yoy. The expansion of FPT Shop was quite behind the company’s plan – only opened 51 new stores, compared to 100 for the year’s target. Despite that, the 20% growth in revenue was significant, considering that the main rival – The Gioi Di Dong chain (by MWG), saw its sales only gain 2% during the same period. The difference was mainly from the two installment programs: F.Friends and Subsidy (figure 3). In 9M, F.Friends and Subsidy contributed 5.1% and 4.5% of total sales, respectively.

The first Mercedes cars restarted to be imported from Germany in late August. No Mercedes cars were imported so far in 2018 due to the tough requirements of Decree 116. We therefore believe that 4Q 2018 is a promising quarter for HAX’s performance.

The mobile phone segment was outstanding (+294%) due to the contract with Xiaomi (started in 2017). Sales in Laptop & Tablet gained slightly (+3%) as the market has entered saturation, while Office equipment rocketed (+57%) because of more categories and clients. On the other hand, the new business - consumer goods (FMCG) is still at the very early stage of development.

HAH - Business Update

HAH’s port operations are having a tough time because the firm is losing market share to the downstream ports in Haiphong. Main reasons: (1) unfavorable position on the Cam River, (2) only one berth makes it difficult to arrange schedules. As a result, international containers’ proportion in total containers throughput of this port has declined from 73% (2014) to 46% (2017). As the price for international containers handling services is higher than domestic containers, change in this ratio also results in a reduction in GPM.

Due to unusually low level of rainfall in 3Q 2018, CHP experienced another quarter of low electricity output, which may result in poor bottom line performance. Even though we expect a certain recovery in performance in the last quarter of this year, the outlook for hydrological conditions in early 2019 will remain tough for the company.

According to Gartner (April 2018), worldwide IT spending is projected to be USD 3.7 tn in 2018, an increase of 6.2% from 2017. While the growth will be lower in 2019 as certain devices (smartphones, PCs) and communications services are entering a period of saturation, Enterprise software spending will still see high growth in the upcoming years, mainly due to the evolution of digital business.

Monetary policy is always driven by inflation expectations. The role of external factors has a considerably smaller role.  In Vietnam, the Government and the State Bank are aware of the above relationship and make efforts to keep inflation in check.
