Message from the Chairman of the Board of Management
Dear Valued Shareholders,
On behalf of the Board of Management (BOM) and Executive Committee, I would like to extend our warmest greetings and wish you health, happiness and success!
Ladies and Gentlemen,
In the past few years, the global and domestic economies encountered a series of challenges. Thousands of enterprises have struggled with the possibility of business closure while hundreds of thousands of workers lost their jobs. It certainly has been a tough time for business.
Despite the economic downturn, Vingroup has met and overcome these challenges. At the end of 2013, foreseeing the economic fluctuations and aiming to strengthen the internal organization of the company, the Group’s Board of Management and management team made the decision to restructure our management system following the theme “Transform to Succeed.” In 2014, Vingroup successfully
completed the decentralization of its operational model into management by business sector P&Ls.
The watershed transformation has helped Vingroup overcome the difficulties and challenges to expand into new areas. The Group has established five core business sectors: Property, Hospitality and Entertainment, Retail, Healthcare, and Education.
Our core business sectors together create an ecosystem of complementary and synergistic operations. This business ecosystem sets a new standard in the market with the mission “to create a better life for the Vietnamese people.”
In 2014, after reorganizing the company structure, Vingroup also executed its aggressive growth plan to expand its opera-tions into key cities nationwide.
In Ho Chi Minh City, Vingroup broke ground on Vinhomes Central Park, one of the most advanced luxury urban commu-nities in Vietnam and the largest mixed-use project Vingroup has created to date.
In Phu Quoc, Vingroup’s new resort complex, Vinpearl Phu Quoc, has become a growth engine for local tourism.
In Quang Ninh, the Vincom Ha Long mall commenced oper-ations in late 2014 and has become the shopping and enter-tainment destination for Ha Long and surrounding areas. This project marked the launch of Vingroup’s national retail mall expansion strategy.
Simultaneously, Vingroup launched supermarket chain VinMart and convenience store chain VinMart+ on a nationwide basis. The Group also introduced other key businesses including VinFashion (fast fashion for Vietnamese), VinPro (electronics and appliances), VinDS (a chain of specialty retail stores), and Adayroi (comprehensive e-commerce).
Vinmec high quality healthcare services and Vinschool high quality education also recorded impressive growth with the start of construction on four new hospitals and the opening of Vinschool with enrollment of 6,300 K-12 students.
With pioneering yet practical steps towards sustainable devel-opment, Vingroup in 2014 achieved record revenue of VND27.7 trillion, a 51% increase over 2013. This was the highest revenue in the Group’s history and puts Vingroup in the exclusive ranks of Vietnamese companies with revenues over a billion USD.
Also in 2014, Vingroup created more than 8,500 new jobs, increasing the total number of employees to 17,000. Vingroup is now ranked the best place to work in the property, architec-ture, and design sectors, and similarly tops the list in the invest-ment, accounting, auditing, pharmacy, healthcare service and biotechnology sectors. Vingroup has the confidence to lead the changes now taking place in its business sectors.
The company is proud to have pioneered a new standard of
living in Vinhomes urban communities, a new standard in shopping and entertainment at Vincom shopping malls, new opportunities to enjoy Vinpearl’s 5-star-and-above upscale resorts, world-class healthcare services at Vinmec, and high-quality education at Vinschool.
In 2015, Vingroup will enter the agriculture business under the VinEco brand. VinEco will provide customers with a trusted quality source of food for current and future generations of Vietnamese while leveraging Vietnam’s advantages in agricul-tural products for export to the global market.
Economic indicators point to progressive stabilization and recovery, and the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) will be established in 2015. Vingroup’s key tasks this year are to effectively manage the P&Ls of our operating businesses, to leverage all of our resources to accelerate the development of new projects and to keep to our schedule for new openings. Vingroup is determined to achieve a breakthrough year with major projects now being developed in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Nha Trang, Can Tho, and Ha Tinh.
The Group will continue to expand the coverage of its ecosystem of Vingroup products and services throughout Vietnam with six core businesses: Property, Hospitality and Entertainment, Retail, Education, Healthcare, and Agriculture. Key goals for 2015 are to have a breakthrough year, to maintain the leading position in our core business sectors, and to continue identifying new and promising businesses to enter. All of Vingroup’s efforts are to realize the mission “to create a better life for the Vietnamese people.”
In addition, Vingroup will continue to strengthen operations by implementing a major overhaul of management systems to increase operational efficiencies in order to ensure sustainable development in the coming years.
On behalf of the Board of Management, I would like to express our gratitude to you for your trust, support and partnership. We believe that through our carefully chosen strategies, Vingroup will achieve our goals in 2015 and the years to come, maintaining our market-leading position as one of the premier companies in the region, while protecting and enhancing the long-term interests of shareholders and making even greater contributions to society.
Sincerely yours,
Message From the Chairman of the Board of Management
Chairman of the Board of Management Pham Nhat Vuong
Our key tasks in 2015 are to leverage all of our resources to accelerate the development of new projects, to keep to our schedule for new openings, and to effectively manage our operating businesses.

Report of the Board of Management
In 2014, Vingroup completed a record number of landmark projects and ended the year with impressive achievements across all business segments including property, retail, hospi-tality and entertainment, healthcare, and education.
The Macro-Economy in 2014
During Vietnam’s 5-year socio-economic development plan (2011 to 2015), 2014 marked the first year that the nation achieved nearly all (13 out of 14) of its macroeconomic targets. This progress provided the foundation for improved growth in the years to come.
Specifically, GDP grew 5.98% in 2014, the highest growth rate since 2012. The agriculture, forestry and aquaculture sector grew 3.49% against 2.64% in 2013; the industrial and construc-tion sector had breakthrough growth of 7.14% compared with 5.43% in 2013; and the service sector increased 5.96% over the previous year. In 2014, foreign trade turnover rose to USD150 billion in exports, an increase of 13.6%, with imports reaching USD148 billion, an increase of 12.1% over 2013. Vietnam’s trade surplus was USD2 billion, the highest since 2012, contributing to the continued stability of the exchange rate and the liquidi-ty of the foreign exchange market.
The inflow of foreign direct investment (FDI) also contrib-uted to an outstanding year with total registered capital of USD20.23 billion, exceeding plan by 19%. Vietnam’s real estate sector attracted FDI of more than USD2.5 billion, accounting for 12.6% of Vietnam’s total registered capital.
The consumer price index (CPI) increased by 1.84% in 2014 compared to 2013, the lowest increase of the last thirteen years. The government continues control inflation successful-ly, stabilizing input costs and commodity prices, stimulating consumption, and promoting economic growth.
Recovery in the Property Market
Along with growth in the economy, 2014 saw the property market turn a page, encouraging the return of both domestic
and foreign investors. The number of successful real estate transactions increased, especially in the Southern market. Ministry of Construction statistics indicate a significant upward trend in the real estate market. The total number of completed transactions in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City doubled over the previous year. Real estate mergers and acquisitions also grew significantly in terms of both volume and transaction value, marking a strong return of the secondary market. According to the Ho Chi Minh City Real Estate Association, new investors have restarted struggling projects. The real estate market was helped by this trend, since it helped to clear inventories, improved debt collection and supplied products that met customers’ needs and financial capabilities. According to real estate experts, the property market bottomed out in 2014 and is now on an upward trend. In the overall picture of recovery, the strongest parts of the property market appear to be the middle and high-end segments, especially properties in prime locations with many amenities and from developers with strong reputations.
Overall, property markets benefited from macro-economic trends, government policy support, improvements in product quality and more effective promotion programs.

Shopping malls
Vincom expanded its chain to sites outside Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City with the grand opening of Vincom Ha Long in the province of Quang Ninh. This expansion raised the total number of shopping malls to six and increased Vincom’s total retail space to 513,690sqm. The occupancy rate for all of Vincom’s shopping malls remained high, due to superior amenities such as shopping areas, food courts, cinemas and amusement parks. The high occupancy rate strengthened Vingroup’s reputation in the retail market.
Vincom Retail was also active in preparing for further expansion in the retail market, with plans to grow the Vincom mall chain nationwide. Construction has begun on six new shopping malls: Vincom Le Thanh Tong – Hai Phong, Vincom Nguyen Chi Thanh – Hanoi, Vincom Xuan Khanh – Can Tho, Vincom Ngo Quyen – Da Nang, Vincom Hung Vuong – Hue, Vincom Thu Duc, and Vincom Mega Mall Thao Dien – Ho Chi Minh City.
Retail sector
Vingroup’s retail market expansion also included the launch of the VinMart supermarket and VinMart+ convenience store chains. At the end of 2014, VinMart and VinMart+ had a total of 23 supermarkets and convenience stores in major cities and provinces across the country. As part of its expansion strategy, Vingroup also rolled out a series of new retail store brands such as VinFashion (fast fashion for Vietnamese), VinDS (chain of specialty retail stores), and VinPro (electronics and appliances). Vingroup is also preparing to launch its e-commerce brand, Adayroi, together with other consumer retail brands to grab the dominant market share.
Hospitality and Entertainment Sector
Vingroup opened a new resort complex, Vinpearl Resort Phu Quoc, in 2014 after just over ten months of construction. This opening more than doubled the total number of hotel rooms in Vinpearl Resorts to 1,600 at the end of 2014.
Vinpearl welcomed 150,242 guests, an increase of 20% over 2013. Foreign tourists accounted for 56% of the total. Revenue1 totaled VND1.35 trillion, up 29% over 2013. Vinpearl launched a new brand, Vinpearl Premium, offering premium resorts and villas, to differentiate its highest-end hotels and vacation prop-erties. The business unit is now accelerating construction of its projects in Nha Trang, Da Nang and Phu Quoc.
Vinpearl Land (theme parks) also had a successful year with total revenue1 of VND905 billion, a 59% of increase over 2013. Vinpearl Land opened two new properties in 2014, Vinpearl Land Phu Quoc and Vinpearl Land Ha Long.
Healthcare Services
Vinmec achieved revenue1 of VND670 billion, an increase of 133% over 2013. Vinmec recorded growth both in the number of patients served and the number of surgeries performed, with
tens of thousands of patients and thousands of surgeries. As part of the expansion of its international-standard healthcare system, Vingroup started construction of Vinmec Phu Quoc Hospital and announced plans to develop ten hospitals and a medical university within the next five years.
Education Sector
During 2014, Vinschool opened its K-12 school and increased the total number of students in its schools to 6,300. In only two years, Vinschool already has achieved remarkable progress and strengthened its reputation with an educational philosophy that stresses comprehensive skills development for future generations.
Management System
To achieve its results in 2014, Vingroup emphasized its inherent strengths, especially its management system framework of processes and procedures to ensure the company can fulfill all tasks required to achieve its objectives. Perhaps 2014 should be remembered as the year of “Vingroup Transformation” as the company successfully decentralized decision making while maintaining proper controls throughout. After twelve consecutive months, the new “Bottom-line Focus” has spread throughout the Group to all of the business units, which have grown in both scale and management sophistication.
All of the Group’s functional departments and divisions have gained a full understanding of their responsibility for controlling profit and loss, ensuring consistency and efficiency throughout the entire system. Vingroup is implementing a governance system that is in line with international practices and will enable the Company to effectively manage its growth and profitability as its scale and complexity continue to increase.
Challenges and Opportunities in 2015
According to World Bank (WB), 2014 will be the platform for economic growth in 2015 for developing countries such as Vietnam. Due to the low price of oil and global interest rates, global economic growth is forecasted to reach 3% in 2015 and 3.3% in 2016.
The stabilizing global economy will support Vietnam’s economy and maintain current growth momentum in 2015. The World Bank forecasts Vietnam GDP growth to be 5.6 % and 5.8% in 2015 and 2016, respectively.
In 2015, the Vietnamese government will concentrate on enhanc-ing macroeconomic stability, resolving difficulties in production, restructuring the economy, transforming the national economic growth model, improving efficiency and competitiveness, and striving for higher growth. In addition, the Government also aims to accelerate the restructuring of State-owned enterprises and the stock market as previously planned. These changes should
attract diversified domestic and international investment, while supporting the equitization of State-owned enterprises and resolving bad debts.
During 2015, the property market is expected to receive wide-ranging support from policies, laws, and regulations recent-ly approved by the National Assembly and the Government. Among these changes, the Amended Housing Law and the Amended Real Estate Business Law are the two most anticipated laws, which take effect on 1 July 2015. These changes will ease conditions for foreigners to purchase and own property in Vietnam, further attracting investment into the property market. In addition, Circular 36/2014 issued by the State Bank of Vietnam, which took effect on 2 January 2015, reduces the risk factor for real estate business loans from 250% to 150% and allows greater use of short-term capital for long-term loans by doubling the rate from 30% to 60%, thus increasing the Bank’s ability to lend. These changes are expected to be positive factors for the property market.
According to BMI research, Vietnam’s population now exceeds 90 million, 35% of which is in the youngest age groups. These younger groups demonstrate the highest demand for housing, hospitality and retail. Since the average person requires 15sqm of living area, demand for living space will be approximately 500 million sqm. The total of residential space in Vietnam is currently about 100 million sqm. Given such favorable conditions as stable politics, a recovering economy, and rich natural resources, there should be strong growth in demand for the property and hospi-tality sectors in the years ahead.
According to Savills Vietnam, the nation’s property market is now at the bottom of its cycle. It is expected that in 2015, increased foreign direct investment in real estate will help to clear unsold inventory and restart some stalled projects.
Blueprint for 2015
The Group believes that 2015 will be a “Breakthrough Year” on every front. Vingroup’s principal mission is to concentrate on achieving growth in all business sectors. The Group will also focus on developing human resources, strengthening gover-nance, with the aim of maintaining its position as one of the leading private enterprises in Vietnam.
Recurring revenue
The Group continues to maintain steady revenue growth from Vinhomes residential projects such as Vinhomes Times City, Vinhomes Royal City, the Vincom shopping malls, Vinpearl hotels and resorts, Vinpearl Land entertainment services, Vinschool education system, Vinmec healthcare and medical service as well as the other retail brands of the Group.
In 2015, Vingroup will start new Vinhomes projects in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Bac Ninh, Ha Tinh, and Can Tho. The Group will complete three Vinpearl Premium hospitality complexes in Nha Trang and Phu Quoc and begin Vinpearl Resort Ha Long, the Group’s first resort in the North.
Vincom Retail will continue to launch new shopping malls, increasing the number of shopping malls to 30 throughout the country. Vingroup will start construction of five new Vinpearl Land recreation facilities and four Vinmec hospitals in Quang Ninh, Nha Trang, Phu Quoc and Ho Chi Minh City.
In the retail sector, the e-commerce brand Adayroi will be launched and is expected to be a leader in the e-commerce area. Other business brands in the retail segment (VinMart, VinPro, VinDS, and VinFashion) will also accelerate the pace of store openings to increase their coverage and take the lead in their respective segments.
In 2015, Vingroup will enter the agriculture business with VinEco. Rising income and increased awareness have created great demand for a source of trusted quality food that the Group is in a unique position to offer.
Management System
During 2015, Vingroup will implement a major project to further improve its management systems. The main objective will be to incorporate international best practices while retain-ing Vingroup’s culture and core values. Further decentraliza-tion, clearly defined delegation of authority and empowered compliance and risk departments aim to improve operational efficiency and increase overall productivity.
Fund raising
Vingroup will continue to consider and mobilize attractive sources of capital in both domestic and international markets.
Human resource and corporate culture
The Group will continue to promote training in all departments to enhance staff performance, introduce new policies to attract and retain talent and emphasize discipline and individual responsibility to reinforce the corporate culture of “Vingroup – Where the Best Gather and Grow.”

Risk Management Process
During 2014 the Group undertook a major upgrade of its risk management processes. Risks are meticulously managed from the Group level down to the level of individual P&Ls in order to maximize opportunities, minimize risks, and optimize the benefit to business partners, investors, and employees of the Group in particular and Vietnamese society at large.
One year after its inception, the Risk Management Department of the Group has established a risk management program in accordance with standards.
• Risk identification: Given the rapid growth of the Group, risks are inherent in all activities. The task of risk identifica-tion is to recognize even the smallest potential risk.
• Risk measurement: Risk measurement is the task of effec-tively managing risks and quickly resolving problems, if any.
• Risk resolution: A highly skilled and professional team is assigned to quickly resolve the risk and minimize possible consequences.
• Transformation of risk into opportunity: Vingroup goes beyond risk management by transforming certain risks into an opportunity to increase value and efficiency.
Using the established process, major risks of the Group are effectively identified and managed. Some of the Group’s specific risks are described in the following sections.
Liquidity Risks of the Real Estate Market
Liquidity risks inherent in the real estate market arise from the fluctuation of the economy, changes in government policies and supply-demand imbalances in the markets for the Group’s properties. In 2014, the Group established a Real Estate Strategy Department. This department prepares comprehen-sive research reports covering all market segments. These reports have provided useful market information and attempt to predict future trends. Each Group project is carefully evalu-ated based on a feasibility study and SWOT analysis in order to develop pricing options and to plan alternative phases for the project. This is Vingroup’s own unique approach to the real estate market.
Macro-economic Risks
The Group has employed economic studies and regression models to study the relationships among macroeconomic factors such as GDP, the consumer price index, savings ratio, investment ratio, and unemployment rate. Through such studies, forecasts of macroeconomic change in the short term, medium term and long term are made, and used to build finan-cial management tools for use throughout the Group.
Interest Rate and Credit Risks
Risks related to interest rates arise mostly from floating-rate long-term financing. The Group manages interest rate risks through a system of qualitative models (analysis of domestic and international currency markets) and quantitative models (regression analysis based on historical variables). Depending on the sensitivity analysis of each borrowing, with the volatility of interest rates, the Group will adjust its capital structure to maintain a reasonable ratio between fixed-rate and float-ing-rate debt.
Credit risk arises when partners fall into insolvency. The Group manages credit risk by analyzing the risk profile of each partner, thereby creating different business policies for differ-ent partner categories.
Exchange Rate Risks
The exchange rate risk is the risk that the future value of cash flows is reduced due to unfavorable changes of the exchange rate. Understanding the importance of foreign exchange risk management, the Group performs analysis and makes forecasts of exchange rate volatility based on domestic and international macro models in order to prepare appropriate action plans and to forecast foreign currency policies.
Material Price Risks
The fluctuation in the cost of construction materials can signifi-cantly impact the project costs and the Group’s profit.
The Group manages its material price risk by closely monitor-ing the purchasing and inventory management process. In addition, the Group has conducted analyses of price trends and has maintained close links with a network of reputable suppliers to minimize the consequences of unfavorable changes in materials markets, further ensuring stable inputs into its projects.
Key Manager Risks
The Group’s rapid growth has increased demand for key and experienced managers. Vingroup constantly focuses on human resource management and undertakes improvements in recruitment, training, salary, bonus, and other incentives to maintain a stable pool of management talent. During 2014, Vingroup established a Training and Talent Development Department and launched a systematic program to develop talent by training key staff members who demonstrate the potential to assume increased responsibility.
Operational Risks
Operational risks are potential adverse effects on the Group due to systems, processes, human factors, and external events. In 2014, Vingroup successfully implemented tools to collect and report data loss and established a system of operational regulations, policies and processes throughout the Group. Using these tools, Vingroup has focused on training and improving the quality of human resources to minimize oper-ational risks due to human factors, as well as implementing operational risk assessment. These steps have contributed to an improved risk management culture in the Group.

following green architecture design principles. Among the Group’s green projects are its very first developments Vinpearl Resort Nha Trang and Vincom Ba Trieu, along with recently completed urban communities including Vinhomes Royal City, Vinhomes Times City, Vinhomes Riverside, Vinhomes Central Park, Vinpearl Premium Da Nang, and Vinpearl Phu Quoc.
Sustainable Development
Building a Green Work Environment
One of the Group’s slogans is “Small Actions Produce Great Results.” The concept behind this slogan is that all Vingroup members can work together to build a green, clean and well-organized work environment.
Many Vingroup buildings include green areas to remind people to strive for efficiency in the use of limited resources. The Group believes that raising employee awareness of the need to protect our environment will promote the many small actions that will produce significant results for the entire society.
Social Responsibility
Vingroup’s corporate philosophy places a high value on maintaining a pioneering spirit that is based on the intelli-gence, courage, patriotism and humanity of the Vietnamese people. As part of this philosophy, Vingroup has always been concerned with the well-being of its employees. The Group is actively engaged in community-building and environmental protection programs. These programs are the hallmark of companies that are concerned with maintaining a reputation for socially responsible management.
During 2014, Vingroup continued its practice of making contributions to social programs by donating to charitable social activities. Among the programs supported by the Group are those which aid the poor, wounded veterans, the families of martyrs, recipients of Vietnamese Heroic Mothers Award, orphans, and other social beneficiaries. The company also supported the healthcare sector, built cultural facilities, promoted education and funded incentives for higher learning.
Among the specific programs Vingroup supported in 2014 is Bac Ninh’s Phat Tich Custodian Care and Talent Development Facility (Phat Tich Center):
• Established by Vingroup’s Kind Heart Fund
• Now home to more than 100 orphans and elderly citizens
• Provides housing while also caring for the mental health of the elderly and supporting the comprehensive devel-opment of children
These are typical of the Group’s charitable activities with meaningful and lasting results by providing education, train-ing, and foster care to support disadvantaged children to become productive, capable citizens, which helps to alleviate the State’s social work burden.
Vingroup also sponsors the Promotion Fund for Vietnamese Football Talent (PVF), which was set up in 2010 to develop an effective system for training young footballers, something then lacking in Vietnam. Since 2010, the Fund has held six PVF courses with 176 participants who then repeatedly go on to win important tournaments, including the Vietnam National Youth Championship, the South East Asia, plus the Pan – Asia Youth tournaments. In 2014, the Fund continued its impressive achievements by winning a National U-17 Football Tournament, the Thai Son Nam Cup. This victory confirms PVF’s national reputation in Vietnam and contributes to the long-term goal of earning a place for Vietnam on the regional and global football map.
Collectively, these programs demonstrate Vingroup’s commit-ment to keeping its business development in line with human-itarian, social and charitable goals. The Group has committed to maintain its involvement in such programs.
Another of Vingroup’s initiatives is to contribute to the devel-opment of management talent so that the Group will build a pool of management talent possessing the skills, attitudes, and leadership capabilities needed to enable the Company to achieve its goals. At the beginning of 2015, Vingroup announced the USD10 million “Future Vietnamese Manager Scholarship Fund” that will be used to strengthen the training and development of promising young future general manag-ers to make them qualified to manage and operate premium service businesses in the hotel, resort, shopping mall, entertainment, education, and healthcare sectors that meet demanding international standards.

2. Basis of preparation 3. Summary of significant accounting policies
2.1 Accounting standards and system
The consolidated financial statements of the Group, which are expressed in Vietnam dong (“VND”), are prepared in accordance with Vietnamese Enterprise Accounting System and Vietnamese Accounting Standards issued by the Ministry of Finance as per:
• Decision No. 149/2001/QD-BTC dated 31 December 2001 on the Issuance and Promulgation of Four Vietnamese Accounting Standards (Series 1);
• Decision No. 165/2002/QD-BTC dated 31 December 2002 on the Issuance and Promulgation of Six Vietnamese Accounting Standards (Series 2);
• Decision No. 234/2003/QD-BTC dated 30 December 2003 on the Issuance and Promulgation of Six Vietnamese Accounting Standards (Series 3);

• Decision No. 100/2005/QD-BTC dated 28 December 2005 on the Issuance and Promulgation of Four Vietnamese Accounting Standards (Series 5).
Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet, consolidated income statement, consolidated cash flow statement and related notes, including their utilisation are not designed for those who are not informed about Vietnam’s accounting principles, procedures and practices and furthermore are not intended to present the financial position and results of operations and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles and practices generally accepted in countries other than Vietnam.
For the purpose of preparing the consolidated balance sheet, the Group has also supplemented details of certain line items in the balance sheet, i.e. “Advances from customers” (Code 313), “Accrued expenses” (Code 316) and “Other short-term payables” (Code 319). The purpose of presenting these additional details in the consolidated balance sheet is to provide more relevant information to the users of these consolidated financial statements. These changes were approved by the Ministry of Finance in accordance with the Official Letter No. 5966/BTC/
3.1 Changes in accounting policies and disclosures
The accounting policies adopted by the Group in preparation of the consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2013.
3.2 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, cash in banks and short-term, highly liquid investments with an original maturity of less than three months that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
3.3 Inventories
Inventory property
Property acquired or being constructed for sale in the ordinary course of business, rather than to be held for rental or capital appreciation, is held as inventory and is measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
Cost includes:
• Freehold and leasehold rights for land;
• Amounts paid to contractors for construction;
• Borrowing costs, planning and design costs, costs of site preparation, professional fees for legal services, property transfer taxes, construction overheads and other related costs.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of the business, based on market prices at the reporting date and less costs to completion and the estimated costs of sale.
The cost of inventory recognised in profit or loss on disposal is determined with reference to the specific costs incurred on the property sold and an allocation of any non-specific costs based on the relative size of the inventory property sold.
Other inventories
Inventories are carried at the lower of cost incurred in bringing each product to its present location and condition and net realisable value.
Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs to complete and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
CDKT dated 4 May 2012 on supplementing details to the forms of the financial statements.
2.2 Applied accounting documentation system
The Company’s applied accounting documentation system is the General Journal system.
2.3 Fiscal year
The Group’s fiscal year applicable for the preparation of its consolidated financial statements starts on 1 January and ends on 31 December.
2.4 Accounting currency
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in VND which is also the Company’s accounting currency.
2.5 Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the parent company and its subsidiaries for the year ended 31 December 2014.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Group obtains control, and continued to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases.
The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting year as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies.
All intra-company balances, income and expenses and unrealised gains or losses result from intra-company transactions are eliminated in full.
Minority interests represent the portion of profit or loss and net assets not held by the Group and are presented separately in the consolidated income statement and within equity in the consolidated balance sheet, separately from parent shareholders’ equity.
The perpetual method is used to record the costs of other inventories, in which construction materials are valued at the cost of purchase, on a first in first out basis.
Provision for obsolete inventories
An inventories provision is created for the estimated loss arising due to the impairment of value (through diminution, damage, obsolescence, etc.) of raw materials, finished goods, and other inventories owned by the Group, based on appropriate evidence of impairment available at the balance sheet date. Increases and decreases to the provision balance are recorded into the cost of goods sold account in the consolidated income statement.
3.4 Receivables
Receivables are presented in the consolidated financial statements at the carrying amounts due from customers and other debtors, after provision for doubtful debts.
The provision for doubtful debts represents amounts of outstanding receivables at the balance sheet date which are doubtful of being recovered. Increases and decreases to the provision balance are recorded as general and administrative expense in the consolidated income statement.
3.5 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.
The cost of a tangible fixed asset comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the tangible fixed asset to working condition for its intended use. Expenditures for additions, improvements and renewals are added to the carrying amount of the assets and expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to the consolidated income statement as incurred.
When tangible fixed assets are sold or retired, their costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the consolidated balance sheet and any gain or loss resulting from their disposal is included in the consolidated income statement.

3.6 Intangible assets
Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation.
The cost of an intangible asset comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of preparing the intangible fixed asset for its intended use. Expenditures for additions, improvements are added to the carrying amount of the assets and other expenditures are charged to the consolidated income statement as incurred.
When intangible assets are sold or retired, their costs and accumulated amortisation are removed from the consolidated balance sheet and any gain or loss resulting from their disposal is included in the consolidated income statement.
Land use rights
Land use rights with indefinite or definite term are recorded as intangible assets based the land use right certificate issued by the relevant authority.
The advance lump-sum payment for land rental, of which the land lease contracts have effectiveness prior to 2003 and the land use right certificate being issued by the relevant authority, are recorded as intangible asset according to Circular No. 45/2013/TT-BTC issued by the Ministry of Finance on 25 April 2013 guiding the management, use and depreciation of fixed assets (“Circular 45”).
Research and development costs
Research costs with significant value are initially recognized as prepayment and expensed over a period of 3 years on a straight-line basis.
Development expenditure on an individual project is recognized as an intangible asset only if the Group can demonstrate all of the following conditions:
• The technical feasibility study of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale;
• The intention to complete and use or sell the intangible asset;
• The ability to use or sell the intangible asset;
• The asset will generate probable future economic benefits;
• The availability of resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset;
• The ability to measure reliably the expenditure during the development; and
• They are estimated to meet all criteria for use duration and value prescribed for intangible fixed asset.
Development costs capitalised as asset are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation. Amortisation of the asset begins when development is completed and the asset is available for use.
3.7 Depreciation and amortisation
Depreciation and amortisation of tangible fixed assets and intangible assets are calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of each asset as follows:
Buildings and structures 10 – 50 years
Other structures 10 – 20 years
Machineries and equipment 3 – 15 years
Means of transportation 3 – 12 years
Office equipment 4 – 8 years
Computer software 3 – 8 years
Copy rights 4 – 8 years
Land use rights with definite terms 50 years
Land rental rights 20 years
Others 8 – 15 years
Land use rights with definite term 46 – 48 years
Buildings 30 – 50 years
Machinery and equipment 8 – 15 years
VAS consolidated financial statements
No amortisation is charged on the land use rights with indefinite terms and project development right.
3.8 Investment properties
Investment properties are stated at cost including transaction costs less accumulated depreciation.
Subsequent expenditure relating to an investment property that has already been recognized is added to the net book value of the investment property when it is probable that future economic benefits, in excess of the originally assessed standard of performance of the existing investment property, will flow to the Group.
Depreciation and amortisation of investment properties are calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of each asset as follows:
Amortisation of land use rights with definite terms presented as a part of investment properties is calculated on a straight-line basis over the definite term.
No amortization is charged on the land use rights with indefinite terms presented as a part of investment properties.
Investment properties are derecognised when either they have been disposed of or when the investment properties are permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic
benefit is expected from its disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets is recognised in the consolidated income statement in the year of retirement or disposal.
Transfers are made to investment properties when, and only when, there is a change in use, evidenced by ending of owner-occupation, commencement of an operating lease to another party or ending of construction or development. Transfers are made from investment properties when, and only when, there is change in use, evidenced by commencement of owner-occupation or commencement of development with a view to sale. The transfer from investment property to owner-occupied property or inventories does not change the cost or the carrying value of the property for subsequent accounting at the date of change in use.
3.9 Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing costs are recorded as expense during the year in which they are incurred, except to the extent that they are capitalized as explained in the following paragraph.
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the respective asset.
3.10 Prepaid expenses
Prepaid expenses are reported as short-term or long-term prepaid expenses on the consolidated balance sheet and allocated over the period for which the amount are paid or the period in which economic benefits are generated in relation to these expenses.
Long-term prepaid expenses include long-term prepaid land rental, bond issuance costs and other long-term expenses that bring future economic benefits for more than one year period.
The prepaid land rental represents the unamortised balance of advance payment made in accordance with the lease contract signed with the government authority. Such prepaid rental is recognised as a long-term prepaid expense for allocation to the consolidated income statement over the remaining lease period according to Circular 45.
3.11 Business combinations and goodwill
Business combinations are accounted for using the purchase method. The cost of a business combination is measured as the fair value of assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange plus any costs directly attributable to the business combination. Identifiable assets and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at fair values at the date of business combination.
Goodwill acquired in a business combination is initially measured at cost being the excess of the cost the business combination over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. If the cost of a business combination is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognized directly in the consolidated income statement. After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated amortization. Goodwill is amortized over 10-year period on a straight-line basis.
Property acquisitions and business combinations
The Group acquires subsidiaries that own real estate properties. At the time of acquisition, the Group considers whether the acquisition represents the acquisition of a business or not. The Group accounts for an acquisition as a business combination where an integrated set of business activities is acquired in addition to the properties.
When the acquisition of subsidiaries does not represent an acquisition of business, it is accounted for as an acquisition of a group of assets and liabilities. The cost of the acquisition is allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired based upon their relative fair values, and no goodwill or deferred tax is recognised.
Changes in ownership interest in subsidiaries without loss of control
When the Company acquires a minority interest in an existing subsidiary, the difference between the consideration paid and the carrying value of net assets acquired is presented as goodwill in the consolidated balance sheet.
Where there is a partial disposal of ownership interest in an existing subsidiary without loss of control, a gain or loss is recognised in the consolidated income statement at the difference between the consideration received and the carrying value of net assets disposed.
Business combinations involving entities or businesses under common control
Business combinations involving entities or businesses under common control are accounted for as follows:
• The assets and liabilities of the two combined entities are reflected at their carrying amounts on the date of business combination;
• No goodwill is recognised from the business combination;
• The consolidated income statement reflects the results of the combined entities from the date of the business combination;
• Any difference between the consideration paid and the net assets of the “acquiree” is recorded in equity.

Notes to the consolidated financial statementsVAS consolidated financial statements
3.12 Investments
Investment in associates
The Group’s investment in its associates is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. An associate is an entity in which the Group has significant influence that is neither subsidiaries nor joint ventures. The Group generally deems they have significant influence if they have over 20% of the voting rights.
Under the equity method, the investment is carried in the consolidated balance sheet at cost plus post acquisition changes in the Group’s share of net assets of the associates. Goodwill arising on acquisition of the associate is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is amortized over 10-year period. The consolidated income statement reflects the share of the post-acquisition results of operation of the associate.
The share of post-acquisition profit/(loss) of the associates is presented on face of the consolidated income statement and its share of post-acquisition movements in reserves is recognised in reserves. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. Dividend/profit sharing received or receivable from associates reduces the carrying amount of the investment.
The financial statements of the associates are prepared for the same reporting year as the Group. Where necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies in line with those of the Group.
Investments in securities and other investments
Investments in securities and other investments are stated at their acquisition costs.
Provision for diminution in value of investments
Provision is made for any diminution in value of the marketable investments at the balance sheet date in accordance with the guidance under the Circular No. 228/2009/TT-BTC dated 7 December 2009 and the Circular No. 89/2013/TT-BTC dated 28 June 2013 issued by Ministry of Finance. Increases and decreases to the provision balance are recorded as finance expense in the consolidated income statement.
3.13 Payables and accruals
Payables and accruals are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the Group. Payables to contractors are recorded based on interim work certificates between two parties, regardless of whether or not billed to the Group.
3.14 Accrual for severance pay
The severance pay to employee is accrued at the end of each reporting year for all employees who have more than 12 months in service up to the reporting date at the rate of one-half of
the average monthly salary for each year of service up to the 31 December 2008 in accordance with the Labour Code, the Law on Social Insurance and related implementing guidance. Commencing 1 January 2009, the average monthly salary used in this calculation will be revised at the end of each reporting year following the average monthly salary of the 6-month period up to the reporting date. Any changes to the accrued amount will be taken to the consolidated income statement. This accrued severance pay is used to settle the termination allowance to be paid to employee upon termination of their labour contract following Article 48 of the Labour Code.
3.15 Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the consolidated income statement net of any reimbursement.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
3.16 Foreign currency transactions
Transactions in currencies other than the Group’s reporting currency of VND are recorded at the exchange rates ruling at the date of the transaction. At the end of the year, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at buying exchange rate announced by the commercial bank where the Group maintains bank accounts at the balance sheet date. All realised and unrealised foreign exchange differences are taken to the consolidated income statement.
3.17 Treasury shares
Own equity instruments which are reacquired (treasury shares) are recognised at cost and deducted from equity. No gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss upon purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Group’s own equity instruments.
3.18 Appropriation of net profits
Net profit after tax (excluding unrealised exchange gains as at the balance sheet date) is available for appropriation to shareholders after approval in the annual general meeting, and after making appropriation to reserve funds in accordance with the Company’s Charter and the Vietnamese regulatory requirements.
The Group maintains the financial reserve fund which is appropriated from the Group’s net profit as proposed by the Board of Directors and subject to approval by shareholders at the annual general meeting. This fund is set aside to protect the Group’s normal operations from business risks or losses, or to prepare for unforeseen losses or damages for objective reasons and force majeure, such as fire, economic and financial turmoil of the country or elsewhere.
3.19 Advances from customers
Down payments from customers for the purchase of residential properties in the future that do not meet the conditions for revenue recognition, are recognized and presented as “Advances from customers” in the liability section of the consolidated balance sheet.
Payments received from customers under deposit, loan and other agreements are recognized and presented as “Other short-term payables” in the liability section of the consolidated balance sheet.
3.20 Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured regardless of when payment is being made. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received, excluding discounts, rebates, and sales taxes or duty. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:
Revenue from sale of inventory property
Revenue from sale of inventory property is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the properties have passed to the buyer.
Revenue from leasing of investment properties
Rental income arising from leased investment properties is accounted for on a straight line basis over the lease terms of ongoing leases.
Sale of goods
Revenue is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer, usually upon the delivery of the goods.
Rendering of services
Revenue from hotel, amusement park, education, hospital, beauty, property management and other related services is recorded when the services are rendered.
Gains from securities trading/capital transfer
Gains from securities trading and capital transfer are determined
as the excess of selling prices against the cost of securities sold. Such gain is recognised on the trading date when the relevant contracts are executed.
Interest
Revenue is recognised as the interest accrues (taking into account the effective yield on the asset) unless collectability is in doubt.
Dividends
Income is recognised when the Group’s entitlement as an investor to receive the dividend is established.
3.21 Taxation
Current income tax
Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior years are measured at the amount expected to be paid to (or recovered from) the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted as at the consolidated balance sheet date.
Current income tax is charged or credited to the consolidated income statement, except when it relates to items recognised directly to equity, in which case the current income tax is also dealt with in equity.
Current income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right for the Group to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the Group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
Deferred income tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences at the consolidated balance sheet date between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:
• Where the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which at the time of the related transaction affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss;
• In respect of taxable temporarily differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, and interests in joint ventures where timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carried forward unused tax credit and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will

Notes to the consolidated financial statementsVAS consolidated financial statements
be available against which deductible temporary differences, carried forward unused tax credit and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:
• Where the deferred tax asset in respect of deductible temporary difference which arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability which at the time of the related transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss;
• In respect of deductible temporarily differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates, and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised. Previously unrecognised deferred income tax assets are re assessed at each balance sheet date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax assets to be recovered.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the asset realised or the liability is settled based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted at the consolidated balance sheet date.
Deferred tax is charged or credited to the consolidated income statement, except when it relates to items recognised directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in the equity account.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right for the Group to off-set current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on:
• Either the same taxable entity; or
• When the Group intends either settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.
3.22 Financial instruments
Financial instruments – initial recognition and presentation
Financial assets
Financial assets within the scope of the Circular No.210/2009/TT-BTC issued by the Ministry of Finance on 6 November 2009 providing guidance for the adoption in Vietnam of the
International Financial Reporting Standards on presentation and disclosures of financial instruments (“Circular 210”) are classified, for disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, held-to-maturity investments, loans and receivables or available-for-sale financial assets as appropriate. The Group determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.
All financial assets are recognised initially at cost plus directly attributable transaction costs.
The Group’s financial assets include cash, cash equivalents, short-term deposits, trade and other receivables, loan receivables, quoted and unquoted financial instruments.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities within the scope of Circular 210 are classified, for disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or financial liabilities measured at amortised cost as appropriate. The Group determines the classification of its financial liabilities at initial recognition.
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at cost plus directly attributable transaction costs.
The Group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, accruals, corporate bonds, convertible bonds, convertible loans, other loans and borrowings.
Financial instruments – subsequent re-measurement
There is currently no guidance in relation to subsequent re-measurement of financial instruments in Circular 210. Accordingly, financial instruments are subsequently carried at cost.
Offsetting of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the consolidated balance sheet if, and only if, there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
3.23 Convertible bonds
Bonds that are convertible by the holder into a fixed number of ordinary shares of the entity are separated into financial liability (a contractual arrangement to deliver cash or another financial asset) and equity instrument (a call option granting the holder the right, for a specified period of time) based on the terms of the contract. In cases where the numbers of ordinary shares to be converted is not fixed, the entire convertible bonds are classified as a financial liability.
On issuance of the convertible bonds, the fair value of the liability component is determined using a market rate for equivalent non-
convertible bonds. This amount is classified as a financial liability measured at amortised cost (net of transaction costs) until it is extinguished on conversion or redemption. The remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the conversion option that is recognised and included in shareholders’ equity. Transaction costs are deducted from equity, net of associated income tax. The carrying amount of the conversion option is not re-measured in subsequent years.
Transaction costs are apportioned between the liability and equity components of the convertible bond based on the allocation of proceeds to the liability and equity components when the instruments are initially recognised.
In 2012, the Group issued US$300 million convertible bonds with a term of 5 years (Note 27.2). Management has assessed that there is no equity component in these convertible bonds (since there is no known fixed number of shares to be converted on issue date) and as a result, has recognized the entire convertible bonds as financial liabilities.

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market prices comprise four types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk, commodity price risk and other price risk, such as equity price risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings, corporate bonds, convertible bonds and financial investments.
The sensitivity analyses in the following sections relate to the financial position as at 31 December 2014 and 31 December 2013.
The sensitivity analyses have been prepared on the basis that the amount of net debt, the ratio of fixed to floating interest rates of the debt and derivatives and the proportion of financial instruments in foreign currencies are all constant.
In calculating the sensitivity analyses, management assumed that the sensitivity of the relevant income statement item is the effect of the assumed changes in respective market risks. This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held at 31 December 2014 and 31 December 2013.

• Fair value of quoted securities and debt instruments is based on market value at the reporting date.
• For financial instruments and other investments whose fair value cannot be reliably determined due to the absence of an active market for these instruments, the fair value is assumed to be the carrying value of these instruments.
• For loans/borrowings from banks and other financial liabilities whose fair value cannot be reliably determined due to the absence of an active market for these instruments, the fair value is assumed to be the carrying value of these instruments.
