Vietnam's top shopping mall operator Vincom Retail has reported a post-tax profit of VND1.02 trillion ($43.6 million) in this year’s first quarter, up three times from a year earlier and 23% against last year’s fourth quarter.

The company’s Q1 consolidated net revenue was VND1.94 trillion ($82.7 million), up 42% year-on-year. Its shop leasing business and related services made up most of the amount, up 54% to VND1.91 trillion, while the rest came from other sources.
