ADG (Clever Group JSC), ICT (Telecommunications – Informatics Joint Stock Company, CTIN), MFS (Mobifone Technical Services JSC) 1.5 Equity and Shareholding Information 1.5.1 Equity and stock

Shareholder structure (Source: FPT’s Annual Report 2020) 0 Tieu luan Inflationary  The consumer price index in 2020 increased by 3.23% compared to 2019 and by 0.19% compared to December 2019 The average core inflation of 2020 increased by 2.31% compared to the average of 2019  The market price level in 2020 is mainly influenced by supply and demand factors that change continuously and complicatedly before the development of the Covid19 epidemic The price level tends to decrease or stabilize at a low level during times when supply and demand are negatively affected by the epidemic and recovers when the epidemic is under control CPI peaked in January, up 1.23% and fell the most in April, down 1.54%  Some reasons for CPI increase in 2020  January and February are Tet months, so the demand for shopping increases, the average price of food items in 2020 increased by 4.51% compared to the previous year, contributing to the overall CPI increase of 0.17%  The price of food items in 2020 increased by 12.28% compared to the previous year, contributing to the CPI increase of 2.61%, mainly due to the high price of fresh food items during the Lunar New Year Due to the influence of storms and floods in the central provinces in October and November, the impact of heavy flooding on vegetable areas, many ponds, lakes, and barns was damaged, washed away, etc., causing prices to rise Fresh, dried and processed vegetables increase  Due to the complicated effects of the Covid-19 epidemic in the world, the demand for some types of medical supplies, preventive and curative drugs for domestic use and export is high, so the prices of these items tend to decrease slight upward trend The average price of drugs and medical equipment in 2020 will increase by 1.35% compared to the previous year Interest rate  The interest rate factor of the macro environment will strongly affect capital mobilization activities for investment projects 2.2 Supply and Demand 2.2.1 Demand 17 0 Tieu luan  Because due to the increasing and high demand of customers for information technology such as the demand for internet, computers, mobile phones, software the industry's needs need to be expanded and enhanced to meet the needs of customers meet customer and market needs Since then, the scale of the industry is expanding and the industry will grow stronger From that demand, the intensity of competition among enterprises in the industry decreased  Although FPT is a diversified and rich company in various fields, but from the above results, we can see that FPT's businesses are all medium and especially large companies, concentrated mainly in big cities such as: Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City 2.2.2 Supply  Because the Vietnamese market is undeveloped and the raw material suppliers for FPT are many and scattered, FPT sometimes has difficulties in production and especially has many domestic materials that not have to be imported These things have created disadvantages and difficulties for FPT for suppliers  Suppliers have a wide range of products in terms of type, quality and price Therefore, if FPT wants to have good quality products, it needs to spend a lot of money And each type of raw material is different, FPT has to import from different suppliers, so the cost it spends is quite large to be able to have enough materials for production That is also the difficulty that FPT faces in the source of spending to import raw materials from suppliers 2.3 Barriers to entry 2.3.1 Competitive threats Most of the Corporation’s business sectors have low entry barriers and yet faced big challenges as foreign or emerging competitors arrive and seize market shares 2.3.2 Policy barriers to enterprises' market entry activities The basic taxes of the industry are import and taxes However, tax policy related to steel changes constantly This creates instability, bringing many concerns to production and business enterprises in the industry 2.3.3 Human resources risks 18 0 Tieu luan The risks occur in attracting talents; or the lack of HR quantity and quality to keep up with business growth and meet international standards for globalization 2.3.4 Brand risks Bad reputation has a big impact on businesses - from brand image to negative monetary effects FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS 3.1 Balance Sheet Analysis Unit: 1,000,000 VND Table 1: FPT's Balance

Assets As of December 31st, 2017, FPT’s total assets were VND 25,000 billion, down VND 4,833 billion, a 16% decrease in comparison to 2016 This is because FPT Retail and Synnex FPT are no longer FPT’s subsidiaries as of December 31st, 2017, therefore, the assets of these companies were not incorporated in the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements Accordingly, various balance sheet amounts also decreased sharply, for example, the inventory has reduced by VND 3,534 billion, equal to 78%; cash and cash equivalents has reduced VND 1,625 billion, equal to 17% YoY However, FPT witnessed a significantly increase in total assets in the next years when FPT’s total assets were recorded at VND41,734 billion as of December 31, 2020, increasing 25.0% compared to 2019 In addition, cash and cash equivalents increased gradually thanks to cash flow from operation Moreover, fixed assets increased by VND 1,226 billion and VND 978 billion in 2018 and 2019 respectively due to the continuous investment in expanding business activities while fixed assets increased slightly by VND826 billion in 2020 because FPT eased its in asset investment during the complicated pandemic Since 2017, FPT has kept its inventories at a stable level no more than VND 1,400 billion and similar to short-term receivables with an average of VND 6,345 billion per year Total Resources 20 0 Tieu luan Having decreased by VND 6,624 billion to 11,761 (decreased by 36% and accounted for 47% of total resources) as of December 31st, 2017, FPT’s total liabilities then rose sharply to VND 22,365 billion (mainly came from current liabilities) in 2020, surpassing its equity and making up 55% of total resources, which indicates the company may be under short-term financial constrain Meanwhile, FPT’s equity increased stably over the period, reaching to VND 18,607 billion at the end of 2020 3.2 Income Statement Analysis Unit: 1,000,000 VND Table 2: FPT's Income Statement from 2016 to 2020 Items Gross

the period from January 1st, 2017 to December 17th, 2017 (Source: FPT’s Annual Report) In 2017, FPT recorded net revenue of VND 42,659 billion, up 8% from 2016 However, the result of 2018 did not unify revenue of FPT Retail and Synnex FPT as these two companies are no longer subsidiaries of the Corporation Under like-for-like conditions, 2018 revenue grew 17.4% YoY Like-for-like comparison means as: 2017 business results not include divestment profits from FPT Retail and Synnex FPT and consolidate the business results of these two companies under the equity method (VND 19,778 billion) The net revenue continued to increase by 19.4% to VND 27,717 billion in 2019, which shows an effective business strategy (with a strategic focus on rapid growth, sustainable development and becoming a technology-focused corporation FPT completed the reduction of its ownership in FPT Retail and Synnex FPT to under 50% In concrete terms, FPT’s ownership ratio in FPT Retail and Synnex FPT has been reduced to 47% and 48%, respectively Therefore, these companies are no longer subsidiaries of FPT, becoming associates instead from December 18th, 2017.) In 2020, despite the impact of Covid-19 and many global geopolitical upheavals leading to a serious economic crisis worldwide, FPT still saw a positive growth of net revenue with 7.6%, rising to VND 29,830 billion In the last years, although the cost of sales and expenses increased over the year, FPT’s net profit after corporate income tax rose gradually during the period and at the end of 2020, net profit was at VND 4,424 billion, up 13.1% y-o-y 22 0 Tieu luan 3.3 Financial Ratios 3.2.1 Liquidity ratios (Source: FPT’s Annual Report) In 2017, current ratio and quick ratio was respectively at 1.45 and 1.35, which is a slight increase when compared to that of 2016 But then, these ratios decreased gradually over the next years and were at 1.15 and 1.09 respectively in 2020 The reason for this decrease is that short-term debt increased by VND6,262 billion, mainly due to increases in short-term loans and financial leases, payables to employees, dividends and profits payables Because all ratios are above 1.0 and there is a large amount of cash and cash equivalents, indicating high financial safety and low liquidity risk 3.2.2 Leverage and coverage ratios 23 0 Tieu luan (Source: FPT’s Annual Report) In 2016, Debt/Total assets and Debt/Equity ratios were respectively 33.3% and 86.8%, which are the highest figures over the period This is because accounts payable balance increased strongly thanks to the expansion of the Retail segment and better payment terms earned by other segments, which increased amounts payable while they weren’t due at year end The following years witnessed significantly decreases in debt ratios but in 2020, short-term and long-term loans increased by 62.0%, increasing the Debt/Total Assets and Debt/Equity ratios to 30.5% and 68.5% respectively, from 23.5% and 46.8% in 2019 Another outstanding point is that Debt/Equity ratio is always smaller than during years, which shows that total assets of the company is mainly based on equity and does not depend too much on debt Besides, the ratio of net debt to equity remained at a safe level as net debt (total interestbearing debt minus cash and cash equivalents on hand) being negative in most years thanks to increased cash and deposits generated from operations and effective cash flow control A negative net debt implies that the company possesses more cash and cash equivalents than its financial obligations, and hence is more financially stable 3.2.3 Operating efficiency ratios 24 0 Tieu luan (Source: FPT’s Annual Report) The operational capability of FPT improved in 2019 as the cash turnover decreased from 63.4 days (in 2018) to 59.5 days, mainly because of the increasing of the receivable turnover by 0.2 times, equivalent to a 4-day reduction for collection This indicated that FPT has been improving its capacity of managing credit policy The cash turnover ratio of FPTcontinued to decrease from 59.5 days in 2019 to only 50.0 days in2020 thanks to the policy of tightening inventory and payables, minimizing cash flow at risk during the epidemic 3.2.4 Profitability Ratios 25 0 Tieu luan (Source: FPT’s Annual Report) The year 2018 was marked by the transformation of FPT after restructuring with outstanding financial performance Specifically, revenue and PBT increase significantly by 17.4% and 30.6% YoY, respectively, in like-for-like
