3.1: VINASUN’S Stock performance within latest months iii ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL SITUATION FOR VIETNAM SUN JOINT STOCK COMPANY - VNS (VINASUN CORP.) iv Part I: Introduction Nowadays, citizens prefer to start using public transportation more because of rising petrol prices, unavoidable traffic jams and growing environmental pollution In the long run, private car ownership will rise, although much of the current generation has calculated that this does not make sense In general, Vietnam’s roads are poor and complex Despite of concerning on construction new highway, only 13.5% of the road network is considered to be in good condition, 26% has two or more lanes and 29% is tarred (BMI report) Ruling of the Vietnam taxi industry varies from city to city While almost all cities have had no licensing requirements, larger urban areas had the strictest regulations Currently, HCM City, Hanoi and Danang have licensing regulations in force to regulate taxi numbers Over the last five years, Vietnam’s taxi transportation sector in Ho Chi Minh City has grown at a remarkable 16% CAGR in terms of cab numbers (from 6,000 in 2005 to 12,550 as of May 2010) The industry is expected to maintain an average growth rate of 10% annually over the 2010-2015 periods Rising living standards and high capita per cab (800 in HCMC versus 210 in Singapore) underpin growth In Ho Chi Minh City, taxis are considered as a second ways of passengers’ public transportation after bus transportation As of May 2010, there are 36 enterprises and cooperatives in the taxi service business with 12,550 registered taxis transporting 400,000 passengers per day, occupy 30% of the carried volume of public passenger transportation There are big market players in taxi sector such as Mai Linh, Vinasun, Savico, Future taxi, and Saigon Air; each of these companies has at least 100 taxis with the number rising every year In addition, there are 2,000-3,000 illegal taxis outside the authority’s control Chart 1.1: Growth in Taxi numbers in HCM City, 2007 - 2012 14,000 12,000 10,000 8,000 6,000 4,000 2,000 Cab number (units) 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 8,000 9,395 10,710 11,500 12,550 13,000 Source: Ho Chi Minh Department of Transportation, Mekong Securities The growth rate of taxi at current is much faster than expected pace through each development phase For example, in the study proposed to the Prime Minister approved at Decision dated 22/1/2007 101/QD-TTg on the HCMC Transport Development Plan to 2020 and vision after 2020, the expected number of taxis for period 2010 - 2015 was 9,500 vehicles But at the present, the actual figure is exceeding 13,000 units (up to 26.9%) The service sector is one of the growth sectors likely positive Most of the macroeconomic situations in the country at present prove proofs to estimate the market taxi steady growth thanks to (1) increase per capita income, (2) the cost of buying a car individual are quite expensive, (3) the development of public transport plus not enough to meet the needs of the whole market However, the growth rate of taxi service in Vietnam may be leveling off in to time by the limitations of transport infrastructure as well as restrictions HCM City's taxi traffic Part 2: VINASUN’S Company Profile Stock Code: VNS, Stock Floor: HOSE Shareholders Structure: Industrials: Taxi Transportation Services - State Property: 0%

activities in the nearby market access as Binh Duong, Dong Nai and Vung Tau Part 3: Risk Profile VINASUN is not a big company but is a leading organization among players in Taxi sector in Hochiminh City now Risk profile of VNS comes from many factors but in limited of this report, the author focus on two main factors represented for transportation business like VINASUN which are scales of taxi fleet and fuel price The taxi market is quite competitive, in which Ho Chi Minh City and Ha Noi are the two biggest markets In Ha Noi, there are more than 100 taxi companies with around 17,400 cabs while in Ho Chi Minh City, there are approximately 26 taxis with around 11,000 cabs Prominent players in the taxi market are Taxi Group (more than 2,000 cabs, present mostly in Hanoi and its neighboring provinces), Mai Linh Group (about 9,905 cabs, present in 50 cities), Vinasun (4,622 cabs; present in cities) … In the taxi market, fleet expansion greatly depends on the ability to obtain taxi licenses, therefore, in some cases, to obtain new licenses, taxi companies must dispose old cars in order to invest in new cabs At the end of 2012, VNS boasts 4,622 taxis If we were to assume that VNS’s private placement proves successful in 2013, it would help VNS to acquire an additional 900 vehicles in 2013 VNS already purchased 100 new cars in Q1/2013 and disposed 38 old vehicles, total vehicles count to 4,684 cabs Increase in the number of taxis depends on the ability to be granted new taxi licenses and it would affect to revenue of the company On the other side, there will be a high correlation between taxi fare and fuel price which correlates with international oil price According to an EIA forecast (Annual Energy outlook to 2013 with projection to 2040), the annual growth of WTI oil price 2011 – 2040 would be approximately 1.8% Therefore, we assume that taxi fares would also increase correspondingly by 1% per year from 2013 until 2017 as it is not easy to defer all increases in cost to customers The sensitivity shows that for every change of 1% of average taxi fee, revenue would be affected by 1% and Net Profit After Tax would be affected by 2% Table 3.1: Change in taxi fee and fuel price from 2009 to 2012 2009 2010 2011 2012 Average taxi fee (VND/km) 10,674 12,416 14,549 16,472 Fuel price (VND/liter) 15,950 16,400 20,130 23,150 [Source: Company data] To overcome these risks VNS’s has effectively formed a risk management team and an effective risk management team to minimize risks for investors as well as corporation The risk has been coming from the changes in the market, and the structural changes being undertaking by VNS The Stock Performance of VNS’s has been reasonably decent despite the large scale changes in operation being undertaken

negative sign (Table 4.3) but it brings back the positive trend of profit after tax (Table 4.4) VNS has start implementing plan for investment to access new markets to become a nationwide taxi company then subsequently maintain stable growth Three new markets that VNS designated to expand are Ha Noi, Nha Trang and Can Tho In term of capital raising plan, in a recent EGM held on August 2013, VNS planned to issue a maximum of million shares through private placement The issuance price will be no less than VND 44,000 with year lock-in period Its objective is to expand its operation to fulfill its ambition to become a nationwide taxi company by increasing the scale of its taxi fleet (initially expand to Hanoi and Nha Trang) If the private placement proves successful, VNS will invest in 400 new vehicles in 2013 (numbers of acquired car in 2013 would increase up to 900) and 900 new vehicles in 2014 In the near future, VNS intends to expand its operation to the Hanoi market Replicating the business strategy that has garnered them the number taxi company title in Ho Chi Minh City, VNS will focus on the high quality image and brand by investing in new Toyota Innova seats in the Hanoi market (it should be noted that most of the taxis in Hanoi are seat cars or mini cars) In the first phase, Vinasun plans to penetrate the corporate taxi market, which has used Vinasun taxis in Ho Chi Minh City However, it is easier said than done as the taxi market in Hanoi is highly competitive (currently, there are about 17,400 taxis in Hanoi) and taxi consumers’ habits and preferences differ from that in Ho Chi Minh (many people in Hanoi consider taxi as a necessity, not a luxury, and prefer low taxi fee/average quality to high taxi fee/high quality such as VNS taxi) The two biggest competitors of VNS are Mai Linh Group and Taxi Group, who are household names in the Hanoi taxi market While the plan to penetrate the Hanoi market remains unclear in our view, VNS remains persistent in its quest to invest in 300 cabs in Hanoi In the best case scenario, it would be a prerequisite steppingstone for VNS to become a nationwide household taxi brand VNS is optimistic about its expansion plan At a recent EGM, VNS announced a financial plan until 2015 in case of the success of the private placement, in which 2015 net income will reach VND 305 billion, implying a CAGR of 26% during the period 2012 -2015 11 Part 5: Dividends and Valuation From the Financial Statement for year 2009 – 2012 periods, we estimate the growth rate for each of the following indicators: Financial

price growth 165% 8% -27% 34% Table 5.1: Financial Ratio of each indicator for VINASUN from 2009 – 2012 As can be seen from the table 5.1, the Current Ratio (=Current Asset/ Current Liability) is bigger than (> 1) means that the Current Assets > Liabilities, while the available shortterm Assets is greater than the short-term needs, so the financial situation of the company is at least healthy in short-term Furthermore, due to the Current Assets > Liabilities means that Fixed Asset < Long-term Liabilities + Equity, therefore the Long-term Funs of the Company is not only enough but also left over available to finance fixed assets Fast Payment Ratio (= Current assets – Inventory)/ Current liabilities) is also greater than 0.5 as required dedicated the good trend with acceptable ratio of the company in term of its ability to repay the debt To have a better view of VINASUN’s business and its financial situation, we summarize some basic indicators as well as make forecasting for next

after tax of VND 151.23 billion Accordingly, the company’s profit increased by 19.30% and profit increased by 13.68% compare to previous year Chart 5.1: Revenue and profit after Tax of VINASUN (Unit:

2013 2014F Profits after Tax The fact trend is that profit increased faster than revenue growth because of the change in the depreciation accounting schedule together with the benefit from the Government’s loan subsidy On the other hand, VINASUN may get benefit from policy of Ho Chi Minh Transportation Department Constraints on registration for new taxi cars cause high barriers for new companies’ access to the market, thus protecting large incumbents like VINASUN According to information from VINASUN, at the end of 8/2013, parent company sales reached about VND 2,016 billion, completed 73% plans, profit after tax reached VND 144.5 billion, fulfilling 82.3% of parent company's business plan, the ability is that VNS will complete planned of profit after tax in September As a result, there will have increase the provision profits in 2013 and 2014 to VND 200 and VND 240 billion Take advantage from this positive trend, the author forecast the company's annual sales will be around 11.48% and 10% together with profit growth for 2013 - 2014 will be 32.25% and 20%, respectively The equity rose from VND 855.87 billion in 2011 to VND 936.13 billion in 2012 means rose by 9.38% and expected continuously increase in 2013 – 2014 period by 10% constantly While Liabilities/Total assets went up from 52.13% to 47.47% from 2011 to 2012, 14 respectively Since VNS’s property development at Tan Da Trading Centre – 7,005sqm GLA - started generating rental revenues from Q1/2011 VNS estimates this centre brought in annual net profit of VND10 billion Total development costs are VND48 billion Chart 5.2: Growth in ROA and ROE of VINASUN from 2009 – 2014F (Unit: %) 25 23 21.19 20 19.42 17 16.91 15.85 15 12 10 10 10.2 8.49 7.49 11.13 ROA ROE 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014F Dramatically growth in profits make ROE and ROA improved significantly over the years, reflecting the improving capital efficiency, and make VNS’s stocks become more attractive Another factor supporting this results including: Firstly, the profit’s picture becomes brighter The adjustment to depreciation period helped somewhat reflect exactly performance of the business of VINASUN However, due to accounting depreciation faster than last year in the next five years, so VINASUN still get some surge profits from the liquidation of car due to the remaining value of the car equal to zero Secondly, the property does not serve business activities accounted for nearly 20% of total asset has been liquidated in 2010 Property investment accounts for nearly 200 billion is the use of land of 717.1 m2 in Thu Khoa Huan, District and 2.739 m2 of land in Truong Dinh Hoi, Ward 16, District This property has not really brought the good performance to the company over the years Thus, the liquidation of the land in 2010 Thu Khoa Huan brough a 15 profit surge for VINASUN and help the main business activity increase by 20% effect from re-investment Expected profits after-tax from the sale of the land were about VND 70-80 billion Third, promote the efficiency of financial leverage Characteristic of the taxi business is large fixed costs due to the initial investment system vehicles for main business operations Structure of equity capital of approximately 30% - 50% is considered successful in the use of financial leverage VINASUN’s debt/equity rate accounted for 70.44% and debt/ total capital was 38.3% did for the return on equity is significantly improved, from 15.85% in 2011 to 16.91% in 2009, and continuously expected increase to 19.24% and 21.19% in 2013 and 2014,

consider prosperous stock to be invested in the future as well Part 6: Conclusion and recommendation From analysis with above explanations, the author recommend to investors should buy VNS stock at price of VND 51.000 – 51,900 Taxi transport has great potential in Vietnam due to increasing population size and life-style is increasingly improved VINASUN is the market leading taxi transport services in the Southern region, thanks to the powerful car with good competitive strategy Nevertheless, the liquidity and volatility of the VNS’s stock market is not too much, so the next major shareholders holding approximately 80% owned by the company and the nature of the activities VINASUN does not contain elements mutagenic The author raised profit forecasts in 2013 and 2014 to VND 200 and VND 240 billion which is lower than the estimate given in the Board Meeting 17 On 27/08/2013, an extraordinary of General Shareholders' Meeting year 2013 of the Vietnam Sun Corporation – VINASUN has been carried out successfully Accordingly, important content is the proposal to the General Shareholders' Meeting consulted about the issuance of 3,000,000 shares separately, the minimum issued price was VND 44,000/ stock to raise capital to finance further investment on vehicle plans business development in existing areas and new areas in 2013-2014 Specifically: - In 2013, VNS invested additional 400 vehicles besides the investment of 500 units has been approved by General Shareholders' Meeting in 4/2013 And in 2014, VNS will invest additional 900 new cars Markets to increase cars are Ho Chi Minh City, Binh Duong, Dong Nai, Vung Tau, Da Nang and expand to new markets - Separately issued shares this time will be limited to transfer within year from the date of completion of the offering Subjects offered are major investors (numbers are less than 10 investors) which not distinguish new shareholders or existing shareholders Accordingly, the cash flow in the coming year of VNS is adjusted as follows: Unit: VND Billion 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 3,327.21 3,659.93 4,025.92 4,428.51 4,871.37 Profit after Tax 240.00 266.40 295.70 328.70 364.34 Interest (1-T) 103.14 113.46 124.8

the next years 784.87 40,499,818 51,938 18 Applying Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) method with 19.4% WACC, the author valuate VNS’ share at VND 51,938 The author believes that the DCF model is most suitable to value the share because: - VNS is the only listed company in the taxi sector, which implies relative value methodology is infeasible - DCF model allows us to capture the effect of extraordinary income in the next one or two years from liquidation of asset without letting these earnings distort the overall valuation, - Calculate the investment in the vehicle fleet in detail over the coming years Expected number of vehicles was stable at 4,200 in the end of the project period and date is estimate based on project in year 2013 New fixed asset are sufficient to replace liquidated fixed asset Business plan of VINASUN: Items (Unit: VND Million) 2011 2012 2013 2014 2,178,500 2,589,800 3,358,700 3,853,000 - - - - Total profit before tax 215,020 165,170 325,000 391,000
