The plan to increase charter capital was developed by the Board of Directors (BCG - HOSE) to pay the debts that have been used to purchase assets, investing in sustainable development in the face of global economic challenges, in order to survive and thrive.

This issuance, according to the BOD, is to finance the debts that have been transformed to assets and support sustainable development in the face of global economic challenges. After the issuance, Bamboo Capital is going to deleverage with a debt/equity ratio of about 1.5 times. That helps to build long-term wealth without incurring much debt.

In 2021, BCG balanced its financial structure by converting 900 billion dong of bonds into shares, issuing shares to existing shareholders at the ratio of 2:1. A strong increase in equity has helped the Group's debt-to-equity ratio decrease to 3.47 from 7.15 times by the end of last year.

Secondly, the Board of Directors also built a plan to maintain high profits and earnings per share. In 2022, the Company sets a planned after-tax profit of VND 2,200 billion, equals to 220% the prior year.





The business plan for the period from 2022 to 2026 was built by the Board of Directors based on steady increase in net revenue and net profit over recent years, with its ambition is to exceed VND 10,000 billion in after-tax profit by 2026 .

BCG continues to make a bulk of its revenues on real estate and clean energy. From the end of last year, BCG Energy Joint Stock Company, Bamboo Capital's subsidiary, has had about 600 MW capacity of solar energy.

 



This year, BCG Energy plans to install 500 MW wind power, aside from  300 MW of solar power and 150 MW of rooftop solar power. The charter capital of BCG Energy is expected to increase to VND 4,000 billion, as a part of a greater ambition to IPO, with the planned electricity generation capacity of about 2GW by 2025.
