HÀ NỘI — Thác Bà Hydropower Joint Stock Company (TBC) plans to pay a first interim cash dividend for 2026 at a rate of 10 per cent, or VNĐ1,000 per share, with payment scheduled for October 30, the company said.

The record date for shareholders entitled to receive the dividend is October 15, with October 14 set as the ex-dividend date.
