How does Investco do business when it wants to borrow capital from Him Lam?
Construction Investment and Development Joint Stock Company - Investco recently announced that the Board of Directors of the enterprise has issued a resolution to borrow capital from Him Lam Joint Stock Company.
This loan is for Investco to supplement working capital for business investment activities. This real estate company also agreed to borrow with a maximum limit of VND 2,520 billion, interest rate of 12.1%/year.
The loan negotiation and signing process was authorized to Investco's legal representative, Mr. Pham Van Danh - General Director.
According to the 2023 annual report, Investco has a charter capital of VND 208 billion, with its headquarters in Binh Thanh District, Ho Chi Minh City.
Initially, this enterprise was a branch of Hanoi Construction Corporation (HAN Corp). Then, Investco was equitized in 2005 with a charter capital of 35 billion VND.
Notably, the revenue of this enterprise in 2022 and 2023 is "blank". The reason is that the company has completed the handover of projects eligible for handover to customers such as Investco Babylon, Investco Dong Dieu. Therefore, there is no more revenue from these projects.
In addition, the company also has one project under implementation, the Investco Green City residential area project - Binh Hung commune, Binh Chanh district, Ho Chi Minh City. This project is in the legal completion stage, so the company does not generate revenue.
Another notable point when looking at Investco's financial report is that financial revenue is huge, but financial costs "erode" everything.
For example, in 2023, this enterprise recorded financial revenue of VND 220 billion, but financial expenses were more than VND 222 billion. As a result, after-tax profit was still negative VND 14 billion.
Similar to 2022, Investco recorded a sudden increase in financial revenue of VND 661 billion, but financial expenses were VND 661 billion.
According to the financial statement explanation, the company's financial revenue is mainly interest on deposits and loans, while financial expenses are interest expenses payable from business cooperation contracts.

Due to business losses, Investco's undistributed profit after tax at the end of September this year amounted to VND286 billion. This caused the company's equity to be negative VND26 billion.
The report also shows that the total number of employees at September 30, 2024 of this real estate company in Ho Chi Minh City is only 10 employees.
In terms of financial resources, Investco only has nearly 1.9 billion VND in cash and cash equivalents. Most of the assets are in long-term unfinished expenses with 2,535 billion VND.
Receiving capital from Him Lam and the ability to open unfinished projects for sale will be important factors for this business to "revive".
As for Him Lam Joint Stock Company, this real estate company is a familiar name in the real estate market with the one-time leadership of Mr. Duong Cong Minh. Currently, Mr. Minh no longer holds the position of Chairman of the Board of Directors of this company.
On the website, Him Lam introduces its predecessor as Him Lam Trading Company Limited, established in 1994 in Ho Chi Minh City.
In 2008, Him Lam converted its business form from a limited liability company to a joint stock company to expand business development conditions.
In 2010, Him Lam increased its charter capital to 6,500 billion VND, an increase of 21,000 times compared to the initial capital of 100 billion VND.
Up to now, this company has introduced a charter capital of 10,000 billion VND, its head office is in Binh Thanh district, Ho Chi Minh City, and its Hanoi branch is located in Long Bien building, Long Bien Golf course, Hanoi. Its core staff is up to 4,500 people.
