The calculation is: $$\text{Gross Profit Margin Q3 2026} = \frac{1,086.4}{3,073.2} \times 100\% = 35.35\%$$ According to our calculations, this figure rounds to 35.4%. The gross margin increase from 32.4% in Q3 2025 to 35.4% in Q3 2026 indicates that every VND 100 in revenue produced VND 3.0 more in gross profit. Net profit margin shows the share of revenue retained after all expenses and taxes: $$\text{Net Profit Margin} = \frac{\text{Net Profit After Tax}}{\text{Net Revenue}} \times 100\%$$ With net profit after tax of VND 449.8 billion in Q3 2026 reported on [CafeF](https://cafef.vn/chu-hang-sua-fami-lai-rong-gan-450-ty-dong-trong-quy-iii-2026-bien-loi-nhuan-gop-cai-thien-188261027091729816.chn) on October 27, 2026, the net profit margin was 14.64% (rounded to 14.6%), up 0.4 percentage points compared to 14.2% in Q3 2025 (difference calculated by the author).
