What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, CIA is improving on both revenue and margins, suggesting current growth is backed by both scale and operating efficiency — the growth momentum has held across consecutive periods. However, a significant portion of profit is supported by non-core sources, making the picture not entirely clear.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE rose from 2.7% to 7.1% — all three components improved, with asset turnover contributing the most.
Is the profit sustainable?
Margins improved (+6.3pp), but earnings still rely significantly on non-core sources — warrants closer scrutiny.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin expanded to 13.10%, rising 6.3pp. The main driver is Gross margin rose 4.8pp and SG&A / Revenue fell 2.2pp, moving in line with the stronger net margin (in addition, Other profit / Revenue rose 0.4pp added support while Net financial result / Revenue fell 2.6pp remained a drag).
The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

Watchpoints
Even though contribution decreased by 2.2pp, financial result still accounts for 45.5% of PBT — earnings durability should be monitored in coming periods.
Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital efficiency should be read in industry context — ROIC may fluctuate with business specifics.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
Track how much operating profit the business generates on invested capital.
Industry characteristics make ROIC cyclical — this is a reference signal and should be read with the business context.

Balance Sheet
ROIC above should be read with industry context — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Balance sheet is exceptionally sound — liabilities at 0.07x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.17x equity.
Over the last 12 months, working capital released 0.5bn of cash, mainly thanks to lower inventories and higher payables. Pressure from higher receivables only partly offset that benefit.
Working Capital Drivers

Working Capital Efficiency
Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 13.1 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 5.0 days, DSO fell 8.7 days, and DPO fell 0.6 days.
Improvement comes mainly from faster receivables collection — reflects the quality of receivables management.

Is financial risk significant?
Financial risk is low — the company has net cash and CFO reached 22.1bn.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage looks fairly comfortable, with net debt / equity at -0.17x and interest coverage at 14.43x.
Debt maturity and the cash buffer remain the two key areas to monitor.
Some leverage signals are missing, so the current read should be treated as contextual.

Cash Flow
With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 22.1bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -16.6bn.
Post-investment cash flow was positive +5.5bn. Financing cash flow was negative +0.0bn.
CFO / net income was 0.85x.
After spending +17.6bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +3.3bn.

Investment Takeaway
The business is showing a brighter picture at the headline-earnings level, but what deserves a closer look right now is the quality of that improvement. Margins and net profit may look better, but if financial income, other income, or unusually low taxes contribute too much, this is not yet a clean enough growth base to extrapolate further. The main bright spot is operating efficiency, with net margin improving 6.3 pp. Even so, the earnings mix still warrants monitoring in upcoming periods, when non-core contribution is 38.3%.
Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 13.10% after expanding 6.3pp versus the same period last year.
Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 38.3% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at 0.85x.
