What Is Changing

On a TTM 2025Q4 basis, DIC posted a sharp profit increase versus the same period, suggesting a clear improvement from a low base — this marks a reversal from the difficult phase before. 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

Is the profit sustainable?

Margins improved (+22.6pp), but earnings still rely significantly on non-core sources — warrants closer scrutiny.

very positive positive stable watch under pressure

What is driving the margin?

Net margin expanded to 8.68%, rising 22.6pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 88.6pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 49.7pp (in addition, Net financial result / Revenue rose 9.8pp added support while Other profit / Revenue fell 26.2pp remained a drag).

The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

Watchpoints

Non-core sources share remains high

Even though contribution decreased by 16.3pp, non-core sources still accounts for 66.7% of PBT — earnings durability should be monitored in coming periods.

Investment Takeaway

The business is heading the right way, but the current picture is still at partial confirmation — not yet a fully clean case. The positive points have clearly improved, showing the operating base is better than before. The brighter spot is operating efficiency, with net margin improving 22.6 pp. Even so, earnings quality still needs closer monitoring because net financial result remains elevated. The main risk still sits in leverage and liquidity, with interest coverage at 0.00x.

Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 8.68% after expanding 22.6pp versus the same period last year.

Watchpoint: cash flow is currently keeping pace with accounting earnings, with CFO / net income at 5.43x. Even so, net financial result still accounts for 30.3% of PBT, so the earnings mix still needs monitoring.

Key risk: leverage and liquidity still require discipline, with interest coverage only at 0.00x.
