Da Nhim-Ham Thuan-Da Mi Hydropower Joint Stock Company, a subsidiary of EVN, made an Initial Public Offering on June 30th 2010, via an auction at the HCM City Stock Exchange. This was part of a country wide program to equatize state-owned and forced by law in 2004. As part of this process, a share is auctioned off and a significant share of up to 30% is sold at a discount to directors and employees. As a result, management tends to have a significant stake in their businesses. The company had four power plants in Lam Dong, Ninh Thuan and Binh Thuan provinces with a total capacity of almost 643MW. The company gave out 106 million shares, at a reserve price fixed at VND 14,000. This would value the IPO at VND 1,484 billion (US$71.2 million). The sale reduces the stake of the state in the company to 75%. *Hydropower firm announces public offer* Vietnam News Service, June 17, 2010 HCM CITY — The Da Nhim-Ham Thuan-Da Mi Hydropower Joint Stock Company will make an initial public offering of almost 106 million shares on June 30 through an auction to be held at the HCM City Stock Exchange.
