Notably, SMC shares of SMC Investment and Trading Joint Stock Company are likely to be subject to compulsory delisting. The reason is that the company lost nearly VND287 billion after tax in 2024, the third consecutive year of losses. According to regulations, a business can be subject to compulsory delisting if it suffers losses for three consecutive years or if the total accumulated losses exceed the equity in the most recent audited financial statements before the review period.
