What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, KBC has not accelerated revenue, but profitability is improving more visibly — the growth momentum has held across consecutive periods. However, operating cash flow is significantly negative relative to profit — this needs monitoring in coming periods.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE is broadly flat at 6.6% — the components are offsetting one another.
Is the profit sustainable?
Accounting profit is positive but operating cash flow has not caught up — needs more time to confirm.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin expanded to 32.77%, rising 8.7pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 11.3pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 2.9pp (in addition, Other profit / Revenue rose 8.3pp added support while Net financial result / Revenue fell 8.0pp remained a drag).
The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital efficiency should be read in industry context — ROIC of 3.3% may fluctuate with business specifics.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC fell to 3.32%, losing 1.9pp. That translates to 3.32 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main pressure came from capital turnover fell 0.09x — capital is being absorbed faster than revenue is being generated; while invested capital expanded strongly by 13,308bn.
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. Capital structure is relatively light for the real estate sector — liabilities at 1.60x equity, net debt at 0.86x equity.
Development inventory ended the period at 27,073.1bn, about 38.9% of total assets — reflecting projects in progress awaiting handover.
Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 13,371.5bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and higher inventories. Part of that drag was offset by higher payables.
Working Capital Drivers
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Working Capital Efficiency
Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 2175.1 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 2166.0 days, DSO rose 45.9 days, and DPO rose 36.8 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
CCC stands at 4055.3 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.
DSO increased by +45.9 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Is financial risk significant?
Leverage is safe but FCF is negative at 13,231.9bn due to capex of 247.2bn — an investment choice, not an urgent risk.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage is balanced for now, with net debt / equity at 0.86x and interest coverage at 2.11x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 10.1% of total debt, cash equals 23.0% of debt, and total debt stands at 30,154.1bn.
Leverage should be read alongside project structure, regulated assets, or industry-specific capital recovery.
Watchpoints
Cash / debt stands at 23.0%, leaving limited liquidity buffer to monitor.

Cash Flow
Operating cash flow reached -17,343.9bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -3,575.1bn.
Post-investment cash flow was negative +20,919.0bn. Financing cash flow was positive +22,721.5bn.
CFO / net income was -8.19x.
After spending +247.2bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −13,231.9bn.
FCF and CFO in this industry should be read alongside investment cycles and business model specifics.

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 8.7 pp. The next item to monitor is capital efficiency, with ROIC at 3.3%.
Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 32.77% after expanding 8.7pp versus the same period last year.
Watchpoint: Capital efficiency needs cycle context.
