During Masan Group’s Q2 2025 investor meeting, CFO Đoàn Thị Mỹ Duyên addressed the increase in net debt to 49 trillion VND, noting that the net debt/EBITDA ratio remains at 3.0x. Masan adjusted interest rates on a $650 million loan, reducing it by 0.85%, and secured another $300 million loan in July with rates lowered from 1.5% to 1.89%. These measures are expected to save 500 billion VND in interest costs over the next four years.

Despite a 15.1% revenue decline at Masan Consumer due to retail disruptions, the company is transitioning its distribution model to adapt. Total projected revenue for 2025 is between 80 trillion to 85.5 trillion VND, with strong profit growth expected.
