Aseana investee company lists on HOSE

Vietnam property developer Nam Long Investment Corporation, in which Aseana holds a 16.32% stake, has listed its shares on the Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange at VND27,000 apiece. This value Nam Long (HOSE:NLG) at approximately VND2,579bn (US$123.82m).

Aseana acquired its interest in Nam Long in June 2008 for $17.14m. The value of Aseana's holdings in Nam Long was subsequently re-valued to $22.05m in December 2010 based on fair value determined by reference to the price that a new institutional investor made their investment in Nam Long in May 2010.

The value of Nam Long on listing represents a 17.8% increase in Aseana's cost of its investment, but an 8.4% decrease from the value Aseana attributed to its holdings as at 30 September 2012.
