For immediate release
VietNam Holding Limited ("VNH" or the "Company")
Estimated Daily Net Asset Value (NAV)
The Fund's NAV per share declined by 3.1% today (Monday -6.1% and Tuesday +0.6%) as volatility in the domestic equity market continues. The broader Vietnam All Share Index fell by 3.1% in the afternoon session of trading as fears of domestic investors were raised when the Ministry of Health confirmed the 35th person infected by Covid-19. This person was an employee at a 'Dien May Xanh' store in Danang, part of the retail network of Mobile World Group (MWG, 8.3% NAV), who came into contact with two visitors from the UK who had recently arrived in Vietnam. MWG fell by 7% (the daily limit) as did another retail stock Phu Nhuan Jewelry (PNJ, 11.7% NAV).
The Company announces that, at its close of business on 11 Mar 2020 its Estimated NAV was USD 118.8 million or USD 2.337 per share and GBP 91.8 million or GBP 1.805 per share (GBP/USD = 1.2944).
