Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 -5.4% = -1.0% × 0.87 × 6.35
2026Q1 -91.6% = -28.9% × 0.34 × 9.33

ROE fell from -5.4% to -91.6% — asset turnover weakened the most, though leverage still provided support.

Net margin: -28.9% -27.9pp Asset turnover: 0.34x -0.53x Leverage: 9.33x +2.98x

Is the profit sustainable?

Margins narrowed but earnings quality remains clean — pressure is mainly operational.

very positive positive stable watch under pressure

What is driving the margin?

Net margin fell to -28.88%, losing 27.9pp. The main pressure is Gross margin fell 25.5pp, outweighing the improvement in SG&A / Revenue fell 0.2pp (with lingering pressure from Net financial result / Revenue fell 3.8pp).

The pressure comes from core operations — this is a concerning type of decline, not a one-off movement.

Is capital being used efficiently?

Capital efficiency for construction contractors should be read alongside project progress and receivables collection from developers — ROIC fluctuates with handover cycles.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

Track how much operating profit the business generates on invested capital.

For construction contractors, ROIC moves with backlog and project acceptance timing — this is a reference signal and should be read alongside working-capital cycles.

Balance Sheet

ROIC for construction contractors swings with project progress and handover cycles — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Leverage is well above the construction contractors norm — liquidity risk becomes material if project acceptance slips — liabilities at 14.55x equity, net debt at 9.68x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 22.5bn, roughly 33.0% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 0.0bn of cash.

Working Capital Efficiency

Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 276.6 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 147.6 days, DSO rose 236.0 days, and DPO rose 107.0 days.

Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to slower receivables collection — receivables quality needs monitoring.

For construction contractors, DSO/DIO/DPO/CCC can be distorted by project progress, work-in-progress receivables, and milestone acceptance timing — these metrics should be read alongside developer payment cycles.

Watchpoints

Cash conversion cycle remains stretched

CCC stands at 513.1 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Receivables collection is slowing

DSO increased by +236.0 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Is financial risk significant?

High leverage combined with negative operating cash flow — this area needs close monitoring.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 9.68x and interest coverage only at -3.06x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 15.5% of debt, and total debt stands at 46.0bn.

Leverage for construction contractors fluctuates with project working capital, performance guarantees, and progress receivables — should be read alongside receivables quality and developer payment cycles.

Watchpoints

Net leverage is elevated

Net debt / equity stands at 9.68x, increasing balance-sheet pressure.

Interest coverage is thin

Interest coverage is -3.06x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Cash Flow

High leverage combined with cash flow below reveals the actual liquidity pressure. Operating cash flow reached -0.0bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of 0.1bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +0.0bn. Financing cash flow was positive +2.8bn.

CFO / net income was 0.48x.

Track how much investment can be funded internally from operating cash flow.

For construction contractors, FCF swings sharply with project progress and payment cycles — should be read alongside backlog and receivables quality.

Investment Takeaway

The business is under real pressure, but the current picture has not turned broadly adverse. A notable area has clearly weakened, making the near-term outlook hard to call bright; even so, other parts of the business are still holding up, with margins remain under pressure remaining the main constraint, with net margin down 27.9 pp. The next watchpoint is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is 27.1%.

Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 27.1% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at 0.48x.

Key risk: profitability remains under pressure, with trailing-12M net margin at -28.88% after a 27.9pp decline versus the same period last year.
