The results reaffirm the Company’s efforts in cost control and operational efficiency amid a challenging construction market. Specifically, the audited FY2025 results highlight the following positive growths: Consolidated net revenue reached VND 24,885 billion, an increase of VND 18 billion compared to the unaudited report, completing 99.5% of the target set at the FY2024 Annual General Meeting (AGM). Despite industry headwinds such as intense competition and rising material and labor costs, Coteccons effectively controlled expenses and enhanced project execution capabilities. As a result, gross profit rose to VND 815 billion, up VND 37 billion, lifting the gross margin to 3.28%, nearly on par with last year’s level (3.39%). Operating profit reached VND 533 billion, an increase of VND 4 billion after audit. The operating profit margin improved to 2.14%, up 0.69 percentage points year-on-year. Net profit after tax rose by VND 2 billion compared to the unaudited report, fulfilling 106% of the annual plan.

At the Shareholders’ Day event on September 20, 2025, Coteccons’ Chairman – Mr. Bolat Duisenov delivered candid insights on the company’s strategy and long-term vision, beginning with three keywords that he believes will shape not only the construction sector but also the trajectory of Vietnam’s economy in the decades ahead.  On September 20, 2025, Coteccons held its Annual Shareholders’ Day at the construction site of the APEC Convention Center project in Phu Quoc.  Opening the dialogue, Chairman Bolat Duisenov outlined an ambitious 20-year vision for Coteccons, aligned with the country’s development, beginning with the keyword Urbanization. He highlighted that with Vietnam’s current urbanization rate at 40%, the nation stands at a similar stage to where China was two decades ago. This not only signals vast growth potential but also presents significant opportunities for the construction industry to shape an integrated infrastructure ecosystem — spanning roads, bridges, airports, hospitals, and schools.  Continuing on the growth trajectory, Mr. Bolat emphasized the theme of Industrialization. Vietnam is emerging as a regional “industrial hub,” attracting over 60% of total FDI into manufacturing and high-tech sectors. With advantages in a young and skilled workforce, strategic geographic location, and strong government support, well-prepared and capable construction companies are positioned to seize this golden opportunity.  The final cornerstone of the strategic vision is Globalization. As Vietnam’s position on the international stage continues to strengthen, Coteccons is boldly venturing into the vast ocean. With projects already executed and underway in Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar, India, and Taiwan, and

On September 12, 2025, Coteccons, in collaboration with the local authorities of Tuyen Lam Commune, Quang Tri Province, organized the groundbreaking ceremony of the “Community Forest Plantation Project at Ban Ke,” initiating the planting of 11,777 native trees across 10.6 hectares to restore watershed protection forests. This marks the fourth year that Coteccons has partnered with Quang Tri Province to implement reforestation projects aimed at a Greener Vietnam, bringing the total number of native trees planted to 33,063. This achievement reflects Coteccons’ steadfast commitment to sustainable development. Coteccons Pledges to Safeguard Natural Forests in Quang Tri The reforestation initiative is part of Coteccons’ annual activities. It originates from the GreenUP Marathon launched in 2022.

Carrying on this vision, Coteccons, together with Quang Tri’s local government, planted 11,777 trees of three rare native species – Erythrophleum fordii (Lim Xanh), Toona sinensis (Xoan Dao), and Michelia mediocris (Gioi Xanh) – at the Ban Ke community forest in Tuyen Lam Commune. This effort contributes to restoring watershed protection forests, preventing erosion, enhancing climate resilience, and sustainably supporting local livelihoods.
