Overview
Song Ba Ha Hydropower JSC (SBH) announced the resignation of board member Ngo Minh Quan, effective on the date of the 2026 annual general meeting (AGM) scheduled for June 3. Quan, who represents EVNGENCO2 (a subsidiary of Vietnam Electricity Group EVN), cited work arrangement needs. The company also reappointed Chau Dinh Quoc as deputy general director one day prior.
Key Facts
- Mr. Ngo Minh Quan submitted his resignation as a board member of SBH, effective on the 2026 AGM date (June 3).
- Quan is the capital representative of EVNGENCO2, which holds 61.78% of SBH’s charter capital.
- SBH’s charter capital is over VND 1,242 billion.
- Major shareholders include EVNGENCO2 (61.78%) and REE Energy Co., Ltd. (25.76%).
- SBH had total assets of nearly VND 2,100 billion as of end-March 2026, with 103 employees.
- The company reappointed Mr. Chau Dinh Quoc as deputy general director on June 2.
- SBH shares closed at VND 40,000 on May 28, 2026, down 1.23% with low volume of 4,500 shares.
What Happened
Song Ba Ha Hydropower JSC (SBH) notified the State Securities Commission that it received a resignation letter from board member Ngo Minh Quan. In the letter, Quan stated he is the capital representative of EVNGENCO2 at SBH and was elected to the board at the 2024 AGM upon EVNGENCO2’s nomination. Due to work arrangement needs, he requested to step down from the board at the upcoming AGM.
Separately, on June 2, SBH reappointed Mr. Chau Dinh Quoc as deputy general director. The company had previously issued a resolution late last year on temporary personnel arrangements to maintain operations and coordinate with authorities.
Market Context
SBH shares closed at VND 40,000 on May 28, 2026, down 1.23% on very thin volume of 4,500 shares. The stock trades on the UPCOM market. The resignation of a board member representing the largest shareholder may raise governance concerns, though the move appears routine. SBH’s major shareholders, EVNGENCO2 and REE Energy, both have extensive hydropower investments in central Vietnam, providing a stable ownership base.
Strategic Significance
The resignation of an EVNGENCO2 representative from SBH’s board, combined with the reappointment of a deputy general director, suggests ongoing internal management adjustments. EVNGENCO2’s dominant stake (61.78%) means it effectively controls SBH, and the change likely reflects internal personnel rotation rather than a shift in strategy. The reappointment of Chau Dinh Quoc indicates continuity in day-to-day operations. Investors should monitor whether further board changes occur at the AGM and if any strategic shifts follow.
What to Watch
- Outcome of the 2026 AGM on June 3, including any new board appointments.
- Any further management changes or operational updates from SBH.
- Quarterly earnings reports for 2026 to assess operational stability.
- Share price and liquidity trends on UPCOM.
- Any regulatory filings regarding changes in major shareholding or strategic partnerships.
