A fertilizer business profited nearly 800 billion VND in just 3 months, is this a golden opportunity or a peak that makes investors easily trapped?
Ca Mau Petroleum Fertilizer Joint Stock Company, stock code DCM, just had an extremely breakthrough first quarter of 2026 when profit after tax reached 789 billion VND, an increase of 91 percent over the same period. The main driving force comes from sharp increases in global urea prices, accelerated exports and marked improvement in profit margins

Compare with businesses in the same industry
Business Highlights
Ca Mau Fertilizer is strong in urea, exports are increasing rapidly, benefiting from global urea prices
Phu My Fertilizer Big brand, long-standing production foundationm, direct competition in the urea segment
Binh Dien Manh about NPK and mixed fertilizers
Lam Thao has a long history in inorganic fertilizers
Super Phosphates and Chemicals Lam Thao Associated with phosphate fertilizers and traditional agricultural products
DCM's most notable competitor is Phu My Fertilizer because it is in the same group of petroleum fertilizers and competes directly in the urea segment. Meanwhile, Binh Dien puts pressure on the NPK segment, especially when the demand for mixed fertilizers is increasing.
Capacity expansion plan
DCM is preparing to increase factory capacity to 125 percent of design capacity. Total investment capital is expected to be about 800 to 1,000 billion VND.
The project is expected to start construction at the end of 2026 and be completed in the third quarter of 2027. At the same time, the enterprise invests in Nhon Trach port to optimize logistics and increase long-term import-export capacity.
Risks cannot be ignored
Although business results are impressive, the domestic market still has short-term pressure. Low agricultural prices and high agricultural input costs could weaken domestic fertilizer demand in the next few months.
DCM shares are also shaking strongly in the range of 40,000 to 50,000 VND per share, showing that expectations are partly reflected in the price.
Review
DCM is entering a period of clear benefit from the global urea price cycle. Strong profits, booming exports and plans to expand capacity show that the business has a remarkable growth foundation.
However, the hot spot is that profits currently depend largely on international urea prices. If prices reverse or domestic demand continues to be weak,Profit margins could come under pressure again.
Investors at this time need to look at DCM as a cyclical stock with a good foundation, not just look at the sudden profit numbers and rush to buy it.
Do you think DCM still has room to exceed 50,000 VND per share, or is this already a price range that easily shakes investors?
