Macquire Bank now holds nearly 1.3 million shares or 4.74% of Yeah1`s charter capital.
Australia-based Macquarie Bank is no longer a major shareholder of Vietnamese entertainment group Yeah1 following the sale of 88,150 shares, according to the Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange (HoSE).
After concluding the transaction, Macquire Bank now holds nearly 1.3 million shares of Yeah1 or 4.74% of the latter's charter capital.
In July, Macquarie Bank acquired over 1.57 million shares, equivalent to 5.74% of Yeah1's charter capital to become the group's major shareholder.
Yeah1 has two other major shareholders in the names of Ancla Asset Limited with 3.4 million shares, equivalent to a 12.49% stake, and DFJ VinaCapital Venture Investment Ltd with over 1.95 million shares or a 7.14% stake.
The firm also has two individual major shareholders namely Nguyen Anh Nhuong Tong, its chairman, and CEO Dao Phuc Tri.
Yeah1 debuted its shares on HoSE on June 26 at the reference price of VND250,000 ($11). At the close of the first trading day, Yeah1's shares rose to VND300,000 ($13.18) apiece, a record in the local stock market, raising the market capitalization of this entertainment business to VND8.28trillion ($383 million).
Established in September 2006, the entertainment group runs a series of entertainment channels including Yeah1TV, Yeah1family, Imovietv and SCTV2, with nine subsidiaries and four indirect subsidiaries including Yeah1 Vietnam Co., Netlink Online Corporation and TNT Media Advertising.
Yeah1 is currently the largest multi-channel network in Asia and the 6th largest in the world by monthly views, it claims. The group is also the only certified publishing partner of Google, which has full rights to publish Google content in Southeast Asia.
In 2017, Yeah1 recorded VND851 billion (US$37.5 million) in revenue, up 48% year on year. The company posted after-tax profit of VND82.3 billion (US$3.63 million), five times the figure posted in 2016.
The group set a revenue target of VND1.6 trillion (US$70.64 million) in 2018, up 90% year-on-year and a profit of VND172 billion (US$7.6 million), up 109% year-on-year.
