HCM CITY — Vietjet Aviation Joint Stock Company (HOSE: VJC) has been honoured as one of the 50 best-listed companies in Việt Nam in 2024 by Forbes Vietnam magazine.

The top 50 best-listed Vietnamese companies by Forbes were selected through a rigorous evaluation process, beginning with a preliminary screening based on fundamental financial criteria, followed by scoring on factors such as revenue growth, profitability, return on equity (ROE), return on capital (ROC) and earnings per share (EPS) growth from 2019 to 2023.

Additionally, Forbes has also considered each company's industry position, governance quality and growth prospects.

Vietjet has also maintained a long-term credit rating of VnBBB-, the highest among Vietnamese enterprises.

Other businesses who got awards on the night and who have also been on the stock market for many years, were Vinamilk and Petrolimex.

Vietjet has expanded continuously its fleet and flight network, planning on receiving an additional ten new aircraft in 2024.

The airline is committed to sustainable growth, expanding its routes across Việt Nam and international destinations in Australia, Japan, South Korea, mainland China, India, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Laos, Cambodia, Indonesia and Taiwan, to meet the needs of both residents and tourists.

Since its initial public offering, Vietjet's VJC stock has consistently been highly valued by both domestic and international investors for its strong profitability.
