Brazil accounts for 60% of global DRC exports, equivalent to 36% of total 2022 revenue. We see a downside risk to 2023 exported sales growth.
  • 2023 business targets with net sales and net profit of VND5,060 bn (+3% YoY) and VND264 bn (-14% YoY), respectively. We see a signal of uncertain selling volume trajectory as well as a negative surprise from double-digit negative profit growth.
  • We view the higher tariff from Brazil and DRC’s 2023 conservative business plan as a downside risk to the outlook for DRC. As a result, we adjust down our forecast for 2023 revenue and net profit to VND5,053 bn (+3.2% YoY) and VND265 bn (-14% YoY), respectively. 2023 EPS was calculated to be VND2,095 (-14% YoY).
  • Our new target price for DRC is VND22,600, adding a VND1,300 cash dividend, the 12-months expected return is 8.6% compared to the closing price on Apr 11st 2023, equivalent to a NEUTRAL
