Hanoi Beer Trading Company (HAT) has announced a 30% cash dividend for 2024, equivalent to 3,000 VND per share, scheduled for payment on October 17. The total payment will be nearly 9.4 billion VND. HAT has regularly paid dividends since listing on HNX in 2010, but the rate has dropped from 40% in 2022 to 30% for 2023-2024 and is expected to fall to 20% for 2025. The first half of 2025 saw revenue reach 720 billion VND, up 11%, yet profit after tax plummeted by 74% to only 3.3 billion VND due to rising marketing and transport costs. HAT has completed 46% of its revenue target and 26% of its profit goal for the year. On HNX, HAT shares are trading at 42,000 VND each, down nearly 7% in the past month.
