Article
6. Use of financial statements in business valuation
1. The use of
financial statements in business valuation shall be subject to the selected valuation
approach and method, time of performance of the valuation and characteristics
of the subject enterprise. Additionally, the use of financial statements
audited or reviewed by independent audit firms is prioritized.
2. The reasonableness
of the financial statements must be compared and checked to ensure their
reliability. Where necessary, the subject enterprise may be requested to adjust
financial data presented on its financial statements before using them in
information analysis and applying valuation approaches and methods to the
business valuation. If the subject enterprise refuses to make adjustments, the
difference shall be determined and the contents and grounds for adjustment
should be clearly analyzed and specified in the valuation report.
3. When using data
obtained from unaudited or reviewed financial statements, or audited or
reviewed financial statements given opinions other than unqualified opinions,
this limitation must be clearly disclosed in the limitation section of the
valuation report and valuation certificate or the notice of valuation results to
valuation customer and users of valuation results.
4. With respect to
valuation methods in the market approach: When using data obtained from
financial statements of the subject enterprise, comparisons must be made to
calculate the following indicators: earnings per share (EPS), earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) used in calculating
market ratios for valuation purposes, and adjustments should be made to exclude
earnings and expenses of non-operating assets, unusual or nonrecurring expenses
or earnings.
5. With respect to
valuation methods in the income approach: When using data on profits obtained
from financial statements in the most recent years of the subject enterprise
for the purpose of anticipating the future annual income stream of the subject
enterprise, unusual or nonrecurring expenses and incomes, as well as incomes
and expenses arising from non-operating assets should be excluded.
6. Nonrecurring
expenses and incomes include: expenses related to the business restructuring;
increases and decreases recorded from the sale of assets; changes in accounting
estimates; inventory write-downs; declines in goodwill; debt write-off; losses
or gains from court decisions and other nonrecurring incomes and expenses. When
adjusting these entries or items, the impact of corporate income tax (CIT) (if
any) must be considered.
Article
7. Valuation approaches and methods
The selection of
valuation approaches and methods depends on the bases of value of the subject
enterprise and judgments on operational conditions of the subject enterprise on
and after the valuation date.

The enterprise value
can be determined through the values of the comparable enterprises that are
similar to the subject enterprise in terms of size; main business lines;
business and financial risks; financial indicators or values of successful
transactions of the subject enterprise. The methods used in the market approach
include the mean ratio method and the transaction value method.
2. Cost approach
The enterprise value is
determined through the value of the subject enterprise’s assets. The method
used in the cost approach is the asset-based method.
3. Income approach
The enterprise value
is determined through converting predictable future net cash flows to a single
current value at the valuation date. The methods used in the income approach
include the discounted free cash flow method, the dividend discount method, and
the discounted free cash flow to equity method.
When determining the enterprise
value using the income approach, the value of the non-operating assets at the
valuation date should be added to the anticipated discounted cash-flow value of
operating assets at the valuation date. Where the cash flow of certain operating
assets cannot be reliably anticipated, the anticipation of the cash flow of
these operating assets may not be required but their value shall be separated
determined and added to the enterprise value. Particularly, the addition of
the value of non-operating assets which are cash and cash equivalent is not
required when the dividend discount method is adopted.
Article
8. Determining value of enterprise’s equity
The value of an
enterprise’s equity is determined by calculating the weighted average of the
results obtained from the application of valuation methods in case at least 02
valuation methods are adopted. Determination of the weighing factor depends on
the reliability of each method, input data, valuation purpose and relevant elements.

applying mean ratio method
a) The formulas used
for calculating financial indicators and market ratios must be consistently
applied to all comparable enterprises and the subject enterprise.
b) Financial
indicators and market ratios of comparable enterprises collected from different
sources must be reviewed and adjusted to ensure consistency in the applied
formulas before they are put into use in the valuation process.
6. Steps of the mean
ratio method
a) Evaluating and
selecting comparable enterprises as prescribed in clause 3 of this Article;
b) Determining market
ratios used for estimating the value of equity of the subject enterprise;

Determining market
ratios used for estimating the value of equity of the subject enterprise is
subject to the following provisions:
1. Calculating the
market ratios of comparable enterprises, and then using at least 03 out of the
following market ratios: price-to-earnings
, price-to-sales
, price-to-book value of equity
, enterprise value to
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation or amortization
, enterprise value-to-sales
, and enterprise value to
earnings before interest and taxes
.
2. Selecting market
ratios used for estimating the equity value and the value of the subject
enterprise on the basis of considering the appropriateness of selected market
ratios on the basis of business size, characteristics, business lines, markets
and similarities. Market ratios of comparable enterprises should be evaluated
and considered for adjustment before they are used in the calculation of
equity. Market ratio adjustments, if applicable, are based on data (if any),
experience and market surveys or market researches.
3. Notes on
calculation of market ratios
a) Earnings per share
(EPS) is determined on the basis of the income earned in the most recent 01
year before the valuation date and adjustments for non-operating assets of
comparable enterprises should be taken into consideration;
b) The share price of
a comparable enterprise is the reference price on the latest trading day of these
shares on the stock market at the time of valuation and these shares must be
involved in transactions occurring during the 30-day period preceding the
valuation date. Where the shares of the comparable enterprise are not yet
listed on the stock exchange or registered for trading on UPCoM, the share
price of this comparable enterprise shall be the price of their shares that are
successfully traded on the market at the time closet to the valuation date but
not more than 01 year before the valuation date;
c) Regarding the book
value of shares in the indicator
, it should be noted that the book value of
intangible fixed assets (excluding LURs, and rights to exploit assets on land)
must be excluded to limit the impact of regulations on accounting for intangible
fixed assets that may falsify the valuation results in the case the comparable
enterprises and the subject enterprise have intangible fixed assets in their
balance sheets. Where the exclusion of the book value of intangible fixed
assets is not made, reasons for this must be clearly stated.
d) The enterprise
value (EV) of comparable enterprises in the market ratios
,
and
is calculated adopting the following formula:

- Total debts with
cost of capital, preferred shares, non-controlling interests, cash and cash
equivalents are calculated based on their book values. Where information used
for calculating total debts with cost of capital is not sufficient, the book
values of loans and finance leases are used;
- Where an enterprise
has issued convertible securities or options securities, the conversion of
these securities into common shares must be evaluated and considered, if
appropriate, when calculating the enterprise’s market capitalization;
dd) EBITDA or EBIT of
the comparable enterprise includes neither incomes from cash and cash
equivalents nor incomes or expenses from non-operating assets.
Article
11. Estimating subject enterprise’s value of equity
1. Determining the
average market ratio for each market ratio
The average market
ratio is the arithmetic mean or the weighted average of the market ratios of
the comparable enterprises.

3. Estimating the
subject enterprise’s value of equity adopting the mean ratio method:
The subject
enterprise’s value of equity according to the mean ratio method is the
arithmetic mean of the results of calculation of the subject enterprise’s value
of equity according to each of selected average market ratios or weighted
average of such results. Determination of the weighting factor for each value
result depends on the evaluated similarity between the comparable enterprises
regarding each market ratio used to calculate that value result on the
principle that the greater similarity between comparable enterprises a market
ratio shows, the greater weighting factor the value result using that market
ratio has.
Section
2. TRANSACTION VALUE METHOD
Article
12. Transaction value method
1. The transaction
value method helps estimate the subject enterprise's value of equity through
the prices of its successful transactions involving transfer of contributed
capital or shares on the market.
2. Conditions for
application of the transaction value method
The subject
enterprise has at least 03 successful transactions involving transfer of
contributed capital or shares on the market; at the same time, such transactions
have been conducted within 01 year prior to the valuation date.
3. Application
principles: Adjustment for prices of successful transactions should be
evaluated and considered to suit the valuation time, if necessary.

of the subject enterprise at the valuation date should be determined as
follows:
a) In case the
enterprise (to which the subject enterprise make capital contribution or whose
shares are purchased by the subject enterprise) has successful transactions
involving transfer of contributed capital or shares on the market, the values
of contributed capital or purchased shares shall be determined according to the
market value of equity of the enterprise in which the subject enterprise
invests. In this case, the market value of equity of the enterprise in which
the subject enterprise invests shall be determined adopting the methods
mentioned in this Standard or according to the following provisions:
- Where the shares of
enterprises have not been listed on the stock exchange or registered for
trading on UPCoM, and the successful transactions involving transfer of
contributed capital or shares on the market satisfy all of these 2 conditions:
(i) more than 50% of the enterprise’s equity is transferred out of total

enterprise's shares quoted on the valuation date, and transactions involving
these shares must be conducted within 30 days prior to the valuation date.
b) In case the
enterprise (to which the subject enterprise makes capital contribution or whose
shares are purchased by the subject enterprise) does not have successful
transactions involving transfer of contributed capital or shares on the market,
the values of contributed capital or purchased shares shall be determined as
follows:
- Where the subject
enterprise holds 100% of the capital of the enterprise receiving investment or
capital contribution, the value of the investment shall be the value of the
enterprise receiving investment or capital contribution which is determined
adopting the methods prescribed in this Standard.

(ii) For the mean
ratio method: values of ratios
shall be calculated, and then, the average
ratios may be estimated
on the basis of
ratios
of at least 03 enterprises having the same business lines.
(iii) The value of
an investment is determined on the basis of the ratio of investment capital of
the subject enterprise to total capital actually contributed to other enterprises
and the value of equity at other enterprises according to audited or reviewed
financial statements. If audited or reviewed financial statements of an
enterprise are not available, the value of equity determined according to the
most recent financial statements of that enterprise shall be used as the basis,
and this must be clearly stated in the limitation section of the valuation
certificate and the valuation report.
- Where the subject
enterprise holds less than 50% of the capital of the enterprise receiving
investment or capital contribution, the value of investment shall be determined

c) If relevant documents
or materials such as the records of reconciliation and confirmation of
receivables and payables or documents on receivables and payables arising after

costs are determined according to the actual costs incurred and recorded in the
accounting books. In case the subject enterprise is a project owner incurring
work-in-progress costs from fundamental construction activities associated with
creation of off-the-plan real estate, it is necessary to determine the value of
LURs (if any, including off-the-plan property) of the subject enterprise
according to Vietnam’s valuation standards on market approach, income approach
and real property valuation; the value of construction items shall be

c) In case inventories
are raw materials, tools and instruments which are in stock for a long time due
to manufacturing defects, unfinished products which cannot continue to be
further finished because of the problem of consumption, or any changes in
products, etc. leading to poor quality, the subject enterprise is required to

tangible fixed assets which are houses, architectural objects,
investment-purpose real property classified as individual works (i.e. the size
or construction unit price, unit investment rate cannot be identified) may be
determined according to their historical costs recorded in the accounting
books, taking into account price escalation, less depreciation at the time of
valuation;
b) For tangible fixed
assets which are machinery, means of transport, transmission equipment,
equipment and tools for management purposes:
In the absence of similar
assets traded on the market or due to shortage of investment and technical
dossiers, information will be collected, argued and analyzed, and evidence that
no similar assets are traded in the market will be kept, and then the values of
these assets shall be determined according to their historical costs recorded
in accounting books (taking into account the exchange rate differences in case
of imported assets) less depreciation at the time of valuation.
The valuation of
these assets according to their historical costs recorded in accounting books
as mentioned above must be clearly stated in the limitation section of the
valuation certificate and the valuation report.
6. Valuing used tools
and instruments:
The value of tools
and instruments is determined according to the market prices of comparable
assets. Where the market prices of comparable assets cannot be collected, the
value of tools and instruments shall be determined according to the trading
prices of new tools or instruments which are of the same type or have similar
properties, or their purchase prices recorded in accounting books, less
depreciation at the time of valuation.

recorded in its accounting books, other intangible assets which satisfy the
conditions set out in Vietnam’s valuation standard on intangible assets, and
unidentifiable intangible assets.
Total value of
intangible assets of the subject enterprise shall be determined adopting
one of the following methods:
1. Method 1:
Estimating total value of intangible assets of the subject enterprise by
estimating the value of each identifiable intangible asset and the value of
unidentifiable intangible assets (residual intangible assets).
The value of each
identifiable intangible asset shall be determined according to Vietnam’s
valuation standard on intangible assets. Particularly, the value of LURs or tenancy
shall be determined according to Vietnam’s valuation standards on market
approach, income approach and real property valuation.

b) Estimating the
income that the subject enterprise can earn each year. This income is commonly
determined according to the FCFF value prescribed in clause 2 Article 19 of
this Standard. This income is the income which can be earned in normal
operating conditions of the subject enterprise, and estimated on the basis of

18. Discounted free cash flow (DFCF) method
1. The DFCF method
helps determine the value of the subject enterprise by estimating the sum of
the discounted value of free cash flows (FCFs) of the subject enterprise and
the present value of its non-operating assets at the time of valuation.
2. Application
principles
If the subject
enterprise is a joint-stock company, the DFCF method shall be used with
assumption that the preferred shares of the subject enterprise are treated as
common shares. This assumption should be clearly stated in the limitation
section of the valuation certificate and the valuation report.
3. Steps of the DFCF method:
a) Forecasting the
Free Cash Flow to the Firm (FCFF) of the subject enterprise;
b) Estimating the
weighted average cost of capital (WACC) of the subject enterprise;
c) Estimating the
terminal value which is the business value at the end of the forecast period (Vn);
d) Estimating the
subject enterprise’s value of equity (V0).

1. The period during
which cash flows are forecasted (forecast period) shall be estimated selecting
appropriate growth models on the basis of characteristics of the subject
enterprise, its business lines and economic contexts. A minimum forecast period
is 03 years. The forecast period of a new enterprise or a fast-growing
enterprise may be extended until the enterprise enters a phase of steady
growth. When determining the forecast period for a fixed-term operating
enterprise, the lifespan of the enterprise should be evaluated and taken into
account.
2. The annual FCFF of
the subject enterprise shall be calculated adopting the following formula and
other formulas which are equivalent variations from this formula:
FCFF = Earnings
before interest after taxes (EBIAT) + Depreciation/amortization - Capital
investment expenditures - Change in net working capital other than cash and
short-term non-operating assets (net working capital difference)
a) EBIAT is the
profits before interest after taxes from which earnings from non-operating
assets are taken away.
EBIAT is calculated from
earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) using the following formula:
EBIAT = EBIT x (1 -
t)
Where:
t: CIT rate
For the period during
which the financial statements are available, the effective tax rate may be
used for calculating EBIAT: teffective = (Earnings before tax –
Earnings after tax) ÷ Earnings before tax.

b) Capital investment
expenditures include expenditures on investment in fixed assets and other
long-term assets, expenditures on investment in operating assets included in
the group of expenditures on purchase of debt instruments of other entities,
and expenditures on investment in operating assets used as capital contribution
to other entities (if any);
c) The working
capital other than cash and short-term non-operating assets is calculated adopting
the following formula:
Working capital other
than cash and short-term non-operating assets = (Short-term receivables +
Inventories + Other current assets) – Short-term liabilities, excluding
short-term borrowings.
Article
20. Estimating weighted average cost of capital (WACC) of the subject
enterprise
1. WACC of the
subject enterprise is calculated for each interval or for the entire forecast
period of future cash flows to be used as the discount rate for the
corresponding interval when converting FCFs and terminal value (if any) to
present values at the time of valuation. The use of a discount rate for the
entire forecast period or the use of different discount rates for intervals in
the forecast period should be argued and clearly stated in the valuation report.
2. WACC is calculated
adopting the following formula:
WACC = Rd
x Fd x (1 - t) + Re x Fe
Where:
WACC: Weighted
average cost of capital

Fd: Ratio
of debt to total capital
t: CIT rate
Re: Cost
of equity
Fe: Ratio
of equity to total capital
Total capital is
sources of financing for operations of the subject enterprise, comprising
equity and liabilities with cost of capital that are expected to finance the
operations of the subject enterprise during the forecast period. These liabilities
include both short-term and long-term liabilities, but must satisfy 02
conditions: repaying cost of capital and arising in the expectation of
financing the subject enterprise’s operations for the forecast period.
3. Estimating the ratio
of debt to total capital (Fd)
a) Fd is
the ratio of liabilities with cost of capital that is expected to finance the subject
enterprise’s operations during the forecast period to total capital;
b) It is necessary to
refer to the bases of value used and information on capital use plans provided
by the subject enterprise when carrying out analysis of the subject
enterprise’s borrowing demands and capabilities in the upcoming time and
evaluation of the capital structure of enterprises in the same industry for estimating
the ratio of liabilities with cost of capital that are expected to finance the
enterprise's operations during the forecast period. Simultaneously, it is also
necessary to evaluate and consider the estimation of the expected Rd
corresponding to the discount rate (WACC) of each interval in the forecast
period of the subject enterprise;
c) Fd is
determined on the basis of considering and assessing the ratio of liabilities
with cost of capital to total capital of enterprises that engage in the same
business lines as the subject enterprise, or determined according to the ratio
of liabilities with cost of capital to total capital of the subject enterprise in
the most recent years, taking into account the future capital structure.

4. Estimating cost of
debt (Rd)
Rd is
determined according to cost of debt of the liabilities with cost of capital
that is expected to finance the subject enterprise’s operations during the
forecast period.
In case there are no
liabilities with cost of capital existing in the capital structure of the
subject enterprise, Rd may be determined according to the
expected interest rate. The expected interest rate is the interest rate which
is estimated on the basis of assessment of the subject enterprise’s ability to
negotiate with credit providers or long-term loan interests of the enterprises
engaging in the same business lines as the subject enterprise.
In case the subject
enterprise has liabilities with cost of capital, Rd shall be
determined according to this cost of capital or the aforesaid expected interest
rate; at the same time, evaluation or review should be carried out to estimate
Rd accordingly. Where the subject enterprise has different
types of liabilities with different costs of capital (different interest rates,
etc.), Rd can be determined by the weighted average interest rate on
the enterprise’s liabilities.
5. Estimating ratio
of equity
The ratio of equity
is determined adopting the following formula: Fe = (1 − Fd)

b) If method 01 is
not applied, reasoning and grounds for not choosing this method must be stated
in the valuation report, and either method 02 or method 03 prescribed in clause
8 or 9 Article 20 of this Standard shall be employed to estimate Re.
c) General formula:
Re = Rf
+ βL x MRP
Where:
Rf : Risk-free
rate of return at or near the valuation date
MRP: Market risk premium
βL: Levered
beta which measures the systematic risks of the subject enterprise
- The risk-free rate
of return (Rf)
is estimated on the basis of the coupon rate of the Government bonds having a
maturity of 10 years or the longest maturity at or near the valuation date.
- The market risk
premium (MRP) is estimated by averaging the differences of the return on
investment for investments in the stock market (R'm) at the last
trading session of each month and the risk-free rate of return (R'f).
R’f is calculated on the basis of the coupon rate of the Government
bonds having a maturity of 10 years or the longest maturity at the
corresponding time or near the time of calculation of R’m. The
expected rate of return for investments in Vietnam's stock market is estimated adopting
the statistical method using VN-INDEX indicators in the last 05 years prior to
the valuation date. VN-INDEX indicators are listed on a monthly basis,
specifically the closing index of the last trading session of the month.

d) Formula for
determining βL using the regression method of variance of a stock’s
reference price adjusted to the market price variance:
βL =
Covariance (stock
returns, market returns)
Variance of market
returns
Where: The price
variance is determined on a monthly basis and for a minimum period of 5 years
(for enterprises that do not have full data for 5 years, it is calculated from
the date on which the enterprise is listed or registers for trading), and the
market return is calculated based on VN-INDEX indicators.
Where there are
sufficient grounds and evidence that βL value has been disclosed on
the market, this βL value shall be used provided that it is
calculated in the same manner as mentioned above;
dd) βL is
estimated as follows:
- If the subject
enterprise has been listed on Vietnam’s stock market for a period of less than
03 years by the time of valuation, βL may be determined according to
transaction prices of shares of the subject enterprise in the years near the
valuation date or βL may be determined according to similar
enterprises that engage in the same business lines as the subject enterprise.
Reasoning for selection of this calculation method must be stated in the
valuation report.
- In other cases, at
least 03 enterprises that
engage in the same business lines as the subject enterprise on the stock market
shall be selected, and βL of the subject enterprise shall be
determined according to βL values of these enterprises;
