TTM YoY · 2025Q2 -> 2026Q2
Cash Flow
●Is profit converting into cash?
With leverage safe, cash flow shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 189.9bn against investing cash flow of -206.1bn (annual cash-flow figures for 2025).
Post-investment cash flow was negative +16.2bn. Financing cash flow was positive +7.1bn.
CFO / net income was 0,90 lần.
Track how much investment can be funded internally from operating cash flow.
Cash capex or FCF data is incomplete, so the cash-conversion view is only partial.
Earnings Quality
●How much income is non-core?
Non-core income makes up 19.6% of pre-tax profit — worth monitoring.
Within that, net financial result at +8.7%, other profit at +10.9% of PBT.
- Non-core / PBT
- 19.6% moderate
- Net financial / PBT
- 8.7%
- Other profit / PBT
- 10.9%
Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital is being used more efficiently — ROIC rose and cash cycle shortened to 32.1 days.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
▲▲ROIC expanded to 39.53%, rising 15.4pp. That translates to 39.53 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both NOPAT margin rose 11.6pp and capital turnover rose 0.14x, while invested capital expanded strongly by 107bn — capital-return quality improved from both sides.
Capital efficiency improved through NOPAT margin — this is a quality-led improvement when operating profit leads.
Working Capital Efficiency
▲▲Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 23.5 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 16.0 days, DSO fell 8.7 days, and DPO fell 1.2 days.
Improvement comes mainly from faster inventory turnover — watch whether this trend persists in coming periods.

Balance Sheet
●The asset structure shows capital being allocated increasingly efficiently. Balance sheet is exceptionally sound — liabilities at 0.24x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.08x equity.
Construction materials are input-cost-cycle businesses — gross margin is the thermometer. The cycle is FAVOURABLE: gross margin widened 10.7pp YoY to 50.24% (TTM).
Gross margin (TTM): 50.24% · YoY +10.7pp
Inventory 22.3bn — 3.07% of total assets, below the materials-group median (13.00%); ≈ 34 days of sales. Inventory is growing faster than revenue (328.86% vs 48.65% YoY) — stockpiling ahead of prices, or slow-moving goods; read with next period's gross margin.
Inventory / assets: 3.07% (group median 13.00%)

In summary
Research synthesis
What this reporting period is showing
The business is entering a broader improvement phase — not just stronger earnings but better operating quality as well. Margin and capital efficiency all improving shows the business is growing in a cleaner and more efficient way than before. Notably, the improvement trend has been confirmed across multiple cycles, from margin to capital efficiency. Even so, cash generation still needs confirmation remains the area to verify in upcoming periods.
- Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 35.81% after expanding 8.4pp versus the same period last year.
- Watchpoint: Cash generation still needs confirmation.

Whether margins hold around the current 35.81% level or narrow again.
Whether operating cash flow holds its 189.9bn (cumulative for 2025) level in upcoming periods or weakens.
