The year 2025 concluded amid persistent complexities and uncertainties in both domestic and global economic landscapes, compelling enterprises to continuously strengthen governance capacity, adaptability, and internal resilience. In this context, Petrovietnam Fertilizer and Chemicals Corporation (PVFCCo - Phu My) remained steadfast in maintaining stable production and business operations, while proactively reviewing and strengthening foundational elements to ensure sustainable development in the medium and long term.
A pivotal milestone of the year was the successful completion of the 12th turnaround maintenance of Phu My Fertilizer Plant, executed over 34 days commencing on December 22, 2025. This critical undertaking played a decisive role in delivering the Corporation's 2025 results and establishes a robust operational platform for 2026 and the subsequent period.
On behalf of the Corporation's Management, I would like to commend the entire PVFCCo - Phu My team, particularly our production and maintenance divisions, for their dedication, strong discipline and seamless coordination in overcoming risks and challenges, thereby honoring the commitments made to our shareholders. Comprehensive performance results will be detailed by the Board of Management in the following sections of this Report.
The accomplishments of 2025 are especially significant in the context of subdued global economic growth, persistent inflationary pressures, and mounting debt burdens. Geopolitical tensions, uncertainties in trade policies, the escalating impacts of climate change, and the increasing frequency of natural disasters have generated profound and unpredictable consequences, compelling nations and enterprises to recalibrate their strategies, operating models and long-term development objectives.
Vietnam was no exception. The year 2025 is regarded as a pivotal year, marking significant institutional and policy transformations across economic and political spheres in preparation for an accelerated growth phase. To achieve dual-digit economic growth in the coming period, the Government promulgated a range of policies designed to create new growth drivers, enabling enterprises to expand their scale of operations and seize opportunities in emerging sectors. Against this backdrop, Vietnam's GDP growth reached 8.02% in 2025, while export turnover recorded an impressive increase of 17%.
These results are particularly noteworthy given the substantial pressures and trade barriers faced in key export markets.
