Analysis of business results & financial statements · Quý 2/2026
▼ Under pressure
Trailing net profit reached 362.4bn, rose 10.5bn compared with the same period last year. Key positives came from higher financial income, higher gross profit, lower tax, and lower finance costs. Offsetting pressure came mainly from higher administrative expenses and higher selling expenses. Detailed impact is shown below:

The current picture
What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q2 basis, NTC is showing a few mildly negative signals versus the same period, though nothing alarming at current levels — margins have been compressing consistently over multiple periods. More notably, a significant portion of profit is supported by non-core sources, further affecting earnings quality.

A closer look at what is happening inside the business
A company's statements are read with the questions that fit its type of business.
Is the profit sustainable?
Margins are under pressure while earnings still rely significantly on non-core sources.
Revenue Growth
▲Is growth real and durable?
Trailing-12-month revenue grew 15.4% year on year — but the quarterly pace is slowing (+348% → −43%).
2 of the last 4 quarters grew year on year.
- Revenue TTM
- 602bn +15.4%
- Latest quarter YoY
- −43% slowing
What is driving the margin?
▼▼Net margin fell to 60.21%, losing 7.3pp. The main pressure comes from SG&A / Revenue rose 9.1pp and Gross margin fell 4.0pp (with additional support from Net financial result / Revenue rose 1.3pp and Other profit / Revenue rose 0.8pp).
The pressure comes from core operations — this is a concerning type of decline, not a one-off movement.
- Net Margin
- 60.21% −7.3pp
- Gross Margin
- 53.28% −4.0pp
- SG&A / Revenue
- 17.86% +9.1pp
- Non-core / Revenue
- 33.66% +2.1pp
TTM YoY · 2025Q2 -> 2026Q2
Financial result accounts for 48.7% of PBT and lifted net margin by 2.1pp — separate the operating contribution from this source.
Cash Flow
▲Is profit converting into cash?
Leverage needs watching — cash flow shows the ability to service debt from operations. Operating cash flow reached 1,357.3bn against investing cash flow of 1,491.6bn (annual cash-flow figures for 2025).
Post-investment cash flow was positive +2,848.9bn. Financing cash flow was negative +2,719.8bn.
CFO / net income was 5,11 lần.
After spending +186.8bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +1,665.9bn.
FCF and CFO in this industry should be read alongside investment cycles and business model specifics.
Earnings Quality
▼How much income is non-core?
Non-core income reaches 48.7% of pre-tax profit — core earnings are thinner than the headline.
Within that, net financial result at +45.4%, other profit at +3.4% of PBT.
- Non-core / PBT
- 48.7% high
- Net financial / PBT
- 45.4%
- Other profit / PBT
- 3.4%
Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital efficiency should be read in industry context — ROIC may fluctuate with business specifics.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
●Track how much operating profit the business generates on invested capital.
Industry characteristics make ROIC cyclical — this is a reference signal and should be read with the business context.
Working Capital Efficiency
▼Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 12.6 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 0.2 days, DSO rose 12.9 days, and DPO rose 0.2 days.
Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to slower receivables collection — receivables quality needs monitoring.
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.
CCC is up by +12.6 days, indicating weaker working-capital turnover versus the prior year.
DSO increased by +12.9 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.
DuPont
What drives ROE?
ROE fell from 29.7% to 26.6% — net margin weakened the most, though leverage still provided support.
Is financial risk significant?
Financial risk is low — leverage is safe, both CFO and FCF are positive.
Leverage & Liquidity
▲Leverage looks fairly comfortable, with net debt / equity at 0.01x and interest coverage at 50.92x.
Debt maturity and the cash buffer remain the two key areas to monitor.
Leverage should be read alongside project structure, regulated assets, or industry-specific capital recovery.
- Net Debt / Equity
- 0.01x −0.71x
- Interest Coverage
- 50.92x +25.83x
- Cash / Debt
- None
- Short-term Debt / Total Debt
- None
TTM YoY · 2025Q2 -> 2026Q2
Balance Sheet
●Leverage runs above the real estate sector average — handover cycles warrant monitoring — liabilities at 3.65x equity, net debt at 0.01x equity.
Unearned revenue 5,084.5bn (as of 2026Q2, 74.61% of total assets) — land-lease cash already collected, waiting to be amortised into revenue; ≈ 8.4 years of current revenue already banked. For a collect-upfront park amortising over 30-50 years, accounting profit typically UNDERSTATES true cash health — the cash arrived long ago; accounting recognises it gradually. Over the last four quarters, operating cash flow was 1,852.7bn vs net profit 362.4bn — 5.11x. Up 36.49% YoY — the future-amortisation reserve is thickening.
Unearned revenue (ST + LT): 5,084.5bn
Share of total assets: 74.61%
Years of revenue banked: 8.4
CFO / NPAT (TTM): 5.11x
None
Over the last 12 months, working capital released 0.0bn of cash.
In summary
Research synthesis
What this reporting period is showing
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 7.3 pp. The next watchpoint is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is 45.4%. The main offsetting support comes from leverage pressure is easing, with net debt/equity down to 0.01x.
- Improvement: leverage pressure is easing, with net debt / equity down 0.71x to 0.01x while interest coverage holds at 50.92x.
- Watchpoint: cash flow is currently keeping pace with accounting earnings, with CFO / net income at 5.11x. Even so, net financial result still accounts for 45.4% of PBT, so the earnings mix still needs monitoring.
- Key risk: profitability remains under pressure, with trailing-12M net margin at 60.21% after a 7.3pp decline versus the same period last year.
What to verify next
Questions for the next period
Whether revenue sustains its +15,4% YoY pace or begins to slow.
Whether margins hold around the current 60.21% level or narrow again.
Whether operating cash flow holds its 1,357.3bn (cumulative for 2025) level in upcoming periods or weakens.
