PROFITABILITY RATIO OF TOP 10 CEMENT EXPORTERS IN VIETNAM
Figure 2 Operating Profit Margin (OPM) and Net Profit Margin (NPM) of Top 10 Cement Exporters, 2016
Regarding to profitability ratio, there are 04 companies posing higher OPM and Net profit margin NPM, of which Nghi Son and Phuc Son illustrated greatest NPM of 13.5% and 11.2% respectively, followed strictly by VICEM (11.1%). It is worth noting that all the top companies still concentrate on strengthening their presence in domestic market since 80% of total Vietnam cement demand derived from local market (2016). Meanwhile, other remaining companies showed under-average performance, especially Cong Thanh, VCM and Thang Long with negative figures due to its sluggish domestic consumption. In conclusion, export activities have shed the light on the gloomy scenario of Vietnam cement industry, however, it was not strong enough to lift up the market, which is indicated by the poor performance of majority top cement exporters.
