In March, Vicem Ha Tien increased cement prices by VND100,000 ($4.27) per ton. According to the Vietnam Cement Association, coal accounts for 35-50 percent of cement production costs.
Nearly two thirds of coal have to be imported, and so global prices heavily impact Vietnamese cement production costs.

It predicted full-year revenues of some VND9.14 trillion for the company and profits of VND495 billion, both representing a 30 percent increase from last year.
However, BIDV Securities Company forecast revenues of VND9.24 trillion but profits of only VND380 billion.
