What Happened
LIZEN (LCG) disclosed that board member Nguyen Van Nghia had 39,300 LCG shares forcibly sold by KB Vietnam Securities on July 23, 2026, through order matching. The sale reduced his stake to 10,427,981 shares, representing 5.05% of the company. Based on the closing price that day, the transaction was worth approximately VND 277 million.
Separately, just one day later on July 24, FPTS executed a margin call on 128,400 TCM shares owned by Nghia, selling the entire block. Nghia serves on the board of both LCG and TCM.

Market Context
LCG shares closed at VND 6,750 on July 27, 2026, on HOSE. The forced sale of LCG shares by a board member may raise concerns about insider sentiment and liquidity. TCM closed at VND 16,900 on the same date. The consecutive margin calls on two different stocks suggest potential financial strain on Nghia, which could affect market perception of both tickers.
Strategic Significance
The margin calls on Nguyen Van Nghia’s holdings indicate possible personal liquidity issues, which may lead to further unwinding of his positions. As a board member of both LCG and TCM, his financial stress could influence corporate governance dynamics. Investors should monitor whether additional forced sales occur, as they could pressure share prices. The event also underscores the risks of leveraged positions in volatile markets.
