Vietcombank (ISIN VN000000VCB4) plans to sell 6.50 percent of its shares by the end of 2026, while DSC set a VND 75,000 target on September 28, 2026. The bank's pretax profit reached VND 29,222 billion in the first half of 2026, up 33.00 percent year over year, according to DSC.
Three dates define the story
On September 28, 2026, DSC reported VND 17,420 billion in pretax profit for the second quarter of 2026, an increase of 58.00 percent year over year. On October 1, 2026, Vietcombank described a VND 50,000 billion lending program for growth sectors and small and medium-sized businesses. On October 9, 2026, The News reported that Vietcombank plans the 6.50 percent share sale by year-end.
What does the share sale mean for capital?
The proposed equity sale gives Vietcombank a route to reinforce capital while credit demand expands. The News linked the sector's fundraising drive to stricter Basel III requirements by 2030 and reported that Mizuho Bank holds a 15.00 percent stake in Vietcombank. That creates a clear investor question: how quickly can fresh equity support lending without diluting returns?
Profit growth meets credit discipline
The operating data provide a second test. Vietcombank's total operating income reached VND 47,551 billion in the first half of 2026, up 35.00 percent year over year, while DSC reported a nonperforming-loan ratio of 0.61 percent and a coverage ratio of 279.00 percent in its September 28, 2026 update.
Vietcombank also said that its small and medium-sized business loan book rose 10.40 percent in the first half of 2026 and foreign direct investment customer loans increased more than 16.00 percent. Net interest margin reached 2.92 percent in the first half, up 31 basis points year over year. The combination points to expanding activity, but the planned capital raise will matter most if it preserves asset quality as lending grows.
