Questions and answers section:
Question 1: The 2012 Annual Report noted many difficulties, however, reported results
looked good. Is there any difficulty that caused the company to get stuck? There have
been some cases where corporations have failed in expanding their businesses. In time of
a turmoil economy, does the company (FPT) implement the electricity box production as
stated in the business lines specified in the investment license? After closing FPT Media,
does the company continue to look for media production opportunities? The education
segment in the investment license encompasses only primary and secondary school
2
education but no tertiary education. will the company discontinue the education segment
next year?
Answer:
Since 2012, FPT closed non-core business that were not effective. FPT Retail has expanded the
network with a large number of shops which takes 3 to5 years to complete by other companies
in a normal condition. E-commerce has been strongly implemented, and also the BPO.
Regarding to the business lines: As per Vietnamese’s practice in business registration, we
registered for most of the businesses that do not require specific licenses. The university
education need a separate license (therefore it’s not included in the general business
registration of FPT). It is untrue that FPT will discontinue tertiary education. We focus on
people development and provide knowledge for the youth in smart ways.
Question 2: The Chairman will concurrently be CEO for 1 year or for a period which is
long enough to look for candidates? The conflict between distribution and retail
segments? How does FPT assess the value of SmartOsin for shareholders’ benefit? We
want to know the company’s plan and what contribution the company would make for
the country.
Answer:
New CEO supposed to be proposed before June. We also keep developing the Program of
planning and training for the next leader generation.
Question 3: The Retail segment plans to open new 50 – 60 shops in this year. This
segment reported a large revenue but still reporting loss. When will this segment generate
profit and how much percentage it will contribute to the total revenue of the corporation?
How is the result for Q1? How FPT assess the feasibility of achieving the 2013 guidance?
Answer:
-
Retail: by the end of 2012, there have been 60 shops opened. We plan to open 50 – 60 more
shops in 2013. The reported loss in 2012 and 2013 are within our plan. It is expected to
breakeven in 2014. As per the retail strategy which has been presented, the contribution to total
profit of the corporation is expected to be around 5-8%.
-
Q1 Revenue expected to reach VND 5,604 billion, approximately flat compared to 2012. There
are some business segments that subject to seasonality such as systems integration, revenue
tends to be higher in the following quarters. Currently, we are confident to achieve the 2013
guidance.
Question 4: Mr. Binh announced the four-year program to appoint a new CEO, but he
also mentioned about the proposal for a new CEO in June. I recommend that we ratify
3
his concurrently being Chairman and CEO until finding out an appropriate candidate to
avoid multiple approval required.
Question 5: I basically agree with the presented reports. 2012 result is acceptable in such
a difficult context. Regarding profit distribution: there have always been a proportion of
profit that have been retained. Please kindly define the accumulated balance of
shareholders retained earnings and the using purposes? Why did the share price go down
when company operation is quite good? The Information and Communication Ministry
Inspector has recently revealed the internet charge theft conducted by Viettel and FPT
devices. Does it involve FPT’s responsibility?
Answer:
-
The share price: We will take action soon with the supports from experiences of foreign major
shareholders like Red River Holdings and Orchid Fund to address this issue.
-
The internet charge theft: the perpetrators are normal customers of FPT, using the connecting
devices for bad purposes, not involving responsibilities of FPT.
Question 6:
FPT’s possibility to participate in pay-TV market? The status of FPT
Telecom share swapping process?
Answer:
-
We have applied for a pay-TV license and now awaiting for project appraisal and
approval.
-
FPT Telecom share swap: keep continuing working with advisors.
Question 7: Viettel has participated in system integration recently. How does this affect
FPT?
Answer:
All telecom carriers in Vietnam are now using FIS’ billing solution. We have customers in
Laos, Cambodia and Myanmar. Our partners have committed to sell our solutions
internationally. We provide solutions for public finance agencies such as the Tax Authority and
the State Treasury; e-Hospital has been used by over 50 hospitals, e-Government has been used
by over 22 provincial government agencies and keep expanding. We also gained the e-Gov
contract with Cambodia Government. ERP solutions provided for both of domestic and foreign
customers.
Most of our solutions are deployed widely and recognized by customers and international
partners. It should take a long time, resources and talents for any new joiners to catch up with
FPT.
4
In 2012, the growth rate decreased. FIS was strongly affected by the cutting down policy of the
Government and enterprises. While the most of competitors got loss, FIS has proved its power
by continuously generating profit. We trust in the growth of the company in 2013.
Question 8: The time for discussion is quite limited. FPT owns an unique corporate
culture that others want to learn. I was unhappy with the speaking and with the attitude
of the guardian of Daewoo Hotel. I suggest not to hire this venue for the next AGM.
What policy did FPT apply to attract and keep the talents? How do you evaluate the
ability of candidates who do not own formal certification? How do you advise a farmer
shareholder to invest in FPT stock? I expect FPT to contribute for the country’s
development, SmartOsin to solve the scociety’s pressing issues. Viettel got their
advantages of being a military enterprise, FPT should not need to follow them but going
your own way. I hope FPT to be judicious in cutting losing business lines.
Answer:
To convince a farmer-share holders to keep FPT share, I just can say most of us here in the
Chair Board have never sold any shares.
I am sorry that the discussion section is over. I would meet to discuss with you separately.
