What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, ITA is retaining some revenue, but margins are collapsing sharply. More notably, operating cash flow is significantly negative relative to profit — this is pressure that needs close monitoring.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 1.3% = 39.0% × 0.03 × 1.18
2026Q1 0.7% = 23.0% × 0.03 × 1.19

ROE fell from 1.3% to 0.7% — net margin weakened the most, though leverage still provided support.

Net margin: 23.0% -16.0pp Asset turnover: 0.03x -0.00x Leverage: 1.19x +0.01x

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 22.97%, losing 16.0pp. Gross margin rose 4.1pp and SG&A / Revenue fell 0.0pp improved but not enough to offset the weakness in Net financial result / Revenue fell 9.1pp and Other profit / Revenue fell 8.3pp.

The pressure comes from non-core items while core operations hold their rhythm — margin has a basis to recover once this factor passes.

Is capital being used efficiently?

Capital efficiency should be read in industry context — ROIC of 0.8% may fluctuate with business specifics.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

ROIC narrowed to 0.81%, falling 0.4pp. That translates to 0.81 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main pressure came from NOPAT margin narrowed 9.2pp, outweighing the movement in capital turnover; with invested capital holding roughly steady.

Industry characteristics make ROIC cyclical — this is a reference signal and should be read with the business context.

CAPITAL EFFICIENCY TREND

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

ROIC 0.81% −0.4pp
NOPAT Margin 26.59% −9.2pp
Capital Turnover 0.03x −0.00x

Balance Sheet

ROIC above should be read with industry context — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Capital structure is notably light for the real estate sector — liabilities at 0.19x equity, net debt at 0.01x equity.

Development inventory ended the period at 3,838.4bn, about 30.0% of total assets — reflecting projects in progress awaiting handover.

Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 56.1bn of cash, mainly because of higher inventories. Part of that drag was offset by lower receivables and higher payables.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables decreased → higher CFO: +58.3bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −157.3bn
Payables increased → higher CFO: +42.8bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 2132.0 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 1948.1 days, DSO rose 187.8 days, and DPO rose 3.8 days.

Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to slower inventory turnover — more capital is being tied up in inventory.

Working capital metrics in this industry should be read alongside business model specifics — DSO/DIO/DPO/CCC can be distorted by operational factors not reflected in raw numbers.

Watchpoints

Cash conversion cycle remains stretched

CCC stands at 10627.7 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Receivables collection is slowing

DSO increased by +187.8 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Working Capital Efficiency

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables 763.9 days +187.8 days
Inventory 10190.4 days +1948.1 days
Payables 326.6 days +3.8 days
Cash Conversion Cycle 10627.7 days +2132.0 days

Is financial risk significant?

Leverage is safe but FCF is negative at 50.8bn due to capex of 5.5bn — an investment choice, not an urgent risk.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage looks fairly comfortable, with net debt / equity at 0.01x and interest coverage at 7.83x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 32.3% of total debt, cash equals 7.7% of debt, and total debt stands at 158.7bn.

Leverage should be read alongside project structure, regulated assets, or industry-specific capital recovery.

Watchpoints

Cash buffer is thin relative to debt

Cash / debt stands at 7.7%, leaving limited liquidity buffer to monitor.

Cash Flow

Operating cash flow reached -62.8bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of 9.4bn.

Post-investment cash flow was negative +53.4bn. Financing cash flow was positive +3.1bn.

CFO / net income was -0.61x.

After spending +5.5bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −50.8bn.

FCF and CFO in this industry should be read alongside investment cycles and business model specifics.

Cash Conversion

TTM Cash Conversion · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

CFO TTM 45.3bn +83.2bn
Cash Capex 5.5bn +2.3bn
FCF TTM −50.8bn +80.9bn

Investment Takeaway

The business is showing a few weaker signals, but the current magnitude is not yet clear enough to conclude that this is a broader weakening phase. The next item to monitor is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is 15.8%. The main risk still sits in core profitability, with net margin down 16.0 pp.

Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 15.8% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at -0.61x.

Key risk: profitability remains under pressure, with trailing-12M net margin at 22.97% after a 16.0pp decline versus the same period last year.
