On December 5, 2025, at the 8th Annual Corporate Governance Forum (AF8) hosted by the Vietnam Institute of Directors (VIOD), with the support of the International Finance Corporation (IFC), the Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO), and the State Securities Commission of Vietnam, Everpia was once again honored in the Top 50 Pioneering and Committed Companies in Advancing Corporate Governance in Vietnam (VNCG50) - marking the second consecutive year the Company has appeared in this prestigious ranking.

This recognition serves as evidence of Everpia’s persistent efforts to enhance transparency, elevate governance standards, and adopt best governance practices aligned with a sustainable development orientation. Beyond full compliance with legal requirements, Everpia proactively develops a comprehensive and modern internal governance framework, creating a foundation for effective, consistent, and professional management - maximizing the protection of shareholder and investor rights.

The VNCG50 selection process adheres to rigorous standards, based on the VNX Allshare index and a stringent set of evaluation criteria, including: the level of transparency in information disclosure, the quality of annual reports in English, and performance in the ASEAN Corporate Governance Scorecard (ACGS) over three consecutive years. After multiple rounds of thorough review and assessment by an expert council comprising representatives from stock exchanges, investment funds, securities companies, and independent specialists, Everpia was named among the Top 50 pioneers - despite the fact that, according to VIOD, only 37 companies fully met the eligibility criteria in the 2025 evaluation cycle.

This year’s AF8 Forum was held under the theme “Breakthrough Board: Beyond Governance, Positioning Trust, and Elevating Reputation in Capital Markets.” Experts and business leaders discussed modern governance trends, highlighting Trust and Reputation as two critical non-financial factors that drive competitive advantage and long-term corporate value. The forum also provided an opportunity for pioneering companies to reaffirm their commitment to upgrading their “governance operating system,” moving beyond a traditional compliance-based model and confidently advancing into regional and international capital markets.
