June 2016 will mark the official launch of VAS’ seventh campus, the Go Vap

mega campus, which will be the most modern campus in VAS’ system. This

campus with its capacity of 2,000 students will increase VAS’ capacity by

30%. The new campus is enjoying great interest from prospective parents

in Go Vap District. It is led by the Executive School Director, Mr. David

McLaughlin, who has more than 10 years of experience serving as Principal/

CEO at GEMS Education in Dubai, one of the best-managed chains of private

schools in the world.

PNJ’s core business, gold jewelry retail, continued its strong growth, achieving

a YoY revenue growth of 24% for the first three months of 2016. It resulted

in the growth of jewelry retail operating profit by 56% by 31 March 2016.

This excellent performance was driven by the company’s focus on improving

customer satisfaction at store level to increase same-store sales growth, and an

increase of goldsmith productivity to sustainably enhance gross margin of gold

jewelry retail.

As of the end of March 2016, PNJ has fully written-off its investment cost in

Dong A Bank which marked the clean-up of 90% of its total non-core investment

portfolio, reducing the non-core assets to VND62 billion.

Traphaco’s 2016 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders was completed on

30 March 2016, resulting in the election of a new Board of Directors in which

six out of the seven directors are non-executive, including one of which is an

international industry expert who can add significant value, Mr. Marcus Pitt.

Marcus was previously the President, Director & CEO of SOHO Global Health, a

large pharmaceutical group in Indonesia. During his time there, Marcus caused

the group to achieve a growth of 20% CAGR over 7 years and established South

East Asia’s largest pharmaceutical joint venture with Fresenius Kabi with a total

turnover of estimated US$90 million.
