Forecasts & Valuation: We raise our 2026 and 2027 earnings forecasts by 12% and 5%, respectively. We expect oil prices in 2027 to remain above the 2026 average despite easing from recent peaks, supporting higher gas selling prices. Our 2027 target price is VND99,800 per share, implying 36% upside. Recommendation: BUY.
Divestment plan: PVN plans to divest at least a 5.76% equity stake in PV GAS to meet public company requirements. The valuation is expected to be completed in December 2026, after which PVN plans to sell the shares through a public auction on the stock exchange.
