Company Research

25 Jan 2024

FPT announced its 2023 results with revenue of VND52.6tn (USD2.2bn; +20% YoY) and NPAT-MI of VND6.5tn (USD267mn; +22% YoY), completing 101% and 103% of our respective full-year forecasts. As the earnings results track ahead of our expectations, we see upside potential to our current projection, pending a more comprehensive review.

Global IT Services: Revenue +28% YoY & PBT +27% YoY. In 2023, FPT’s Digital Transformation (DX) revenue advanced 42% YoY and accounted for 43% of total global IT revenue. In the Japan and APAC markets, it outperformed with revenue growth of 43% YoY and 38% YoY, respectively, in addition to a 22% YoY surge in revenue from the EU market. On the other hand, revenue from the US grew at 9% YoY due to the current economic slowdown in this market. Regarding FPT’s new global IT contract, the new signed value increased by 38% YoY in 2023 to VND29.7tn (USD1.2bn) while large deals (USD5+ mn) increased 19% YoY, which bodes well for future growth.  

Telecom Services: Revenue +9% YoY and PBT +15% YoY. In 2023, Telecom Services surpassed four million fixed-broadband subscribers, while PBT margin expanded 1.1 ppts YoY to 19.1% in 2023, which we mainly attribute to profitability improvement in the paid TV segment.

Education: Revenue +31% YoY. FPT Education maintained a high revenue growth rate and achieved 145,000 full time equivalent students in 2023.
