Vietnam firms line up hefty July dividend payouts

A wave of Vietnamese listed companies, spanning sectors from real estate and retail to dairy, mining and textiles, are set to distribute large cash dividends in July, with total payouts running into hundreds of millions of U.S. dollars.

Among the largest distributions is that of property developer Vinhomes (HoSE: VHM), which plans to pay a cash dividend of VND6,000 ($0.23) per share, or 60% of par value, on July 22. The ex-dividend date is June 29 and the record date is June 30.

With more than 4.1 billion shares outstanding, Vinhomes expects to distribute over VND24.64 trillion ($937.04 million). Its parent company, Vingroup, which owns about 72% of the developer, is set to receive more than VND17.7 trillion ($673 million) in cash.

In addition to the cash payout, Vinhomes plans to issue more than 4.1 billion bonus shares on a one-for-one basis, doubling its share count and raising charter capital to more than VND80 trillion ($3.04 billion). The issuance will be funded from retained earnings as of the end of 2025.

Retail property operator Vincom Retail (HoSE: VRE), another unit of the Vingroup ecosystem, will pay a cash dividend of VND1,000 ($0.04) per share, equivalent to a 10% payout ratio, with an ex-dividend date of June 30 and payment scheduled for July 22.

The company expects to distribute more than VND2.27 trillion ($86.39 million), with its two largest shareholders, SADO Trading Investment JSC and Vingroup, receiving approximately VND943 billion and VND422 billion ($16.05 million), respectively.

The payment marks Vincom Retail's first cash dividend in seven years after previously retaining earnings to support business expansion.

Combined with an interim cash dividend of 25% paid in October 2025, Vinamilk's total cash dividend for 2025 amounts to 43.5%. The company has also indicated that it plans to maintain a minimum cash payout equivalent to 50% of consolidated net profit for 2026.
