What Is Changing

On a TTM 2025Q4 basis, PC1 is improving on both revenue and margins, suggesting current growth is backed by both scale and operating efficiency — profit is at an all-time high. The next test will be whether this pace holds as the comparison base gets tougher.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2024Q4 7.9% = 5.9% × 0.49 × 2.75
2025Q4 16.4% = 10.4% × 0.57 × 2.74

ROE rose from 7.9% to 16.4% — mainly driven by asset turnover, despite leverage moving in the opposite direction.

Net margin: 10.4% +4.5pp Asset turnover: 0.57x +0.09x Leverage: 2.74x -0.01x

Is the profit sustainable?

Margins are improving and earnings quality is solid — a durable foundation for ROE.

very positive positive stable watch under pressure

What is driving the margin?

Net margin expanded to 10.40%, rising 4.5pp. The main driver is Gross margin rose 1.0pp and SG&A / Revenue fell 0.7pp, moving in line with the stronger net margin (in addition, Net financial result / Revenue rose 2.9pp added support while Other profit / Revenue fell 0.0pp remained a drag).

Margin improves from both core operations and non-core items — the core foundation is positive, but the sustainability of non-core contributions needs monitoring.

SG&A / Revenue 4.98% −0.7pp

Is capital being used efficiently?

Capital efficiency for construction contractors should be read alongside project progress and receivables collection from developers — ROIC of 8.2% fluctuates with handover cycles.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

ROIC expanded to 8.16%, rising 4.6pp. That translates to 8.16 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both NOPAT margin rose 4.5pp and capital turnover rose 0.17x, with invested capital holding roughly steady — capital-return quality improved from both sides.

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

CAPITAL EFFICIENCY TREND

TTM YoY · 2024Q4 -> 2025Q4

ROIC 8.16% +4.6pp
NOPAT Margin 10.31% +4.5pp
Capital Turnover 0.79x +0.17x
Average Invested Capital 16,543.0bn +443.4bn

Balance Sheet

ROIC for construction contractors swings with project progress and handover cycles — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Capital structure is relatively light for construction contractors — liabilities at 1.77x equity, net debt at 0.89x equity.

Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 62.0bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables. Part of that drag was offset by lower inventories and higher payables.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2024Q4 -> 2025Q4

Receivables increased → lower CFO: −1,233.4bn
Inventories decreased → higher CFO: +52.2bn
Payables increased → higher CFO: +1,119.2bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 6.1 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 2.4 days, DSO fell 1.4 days, and DPO rose 2.3 days.

All 3 drivers (collection, inventory, payables) are improving — working capital turnover is strengthening across the board.

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.

Working Capital Efficiency

TTM YoY · 2024Q4 -> 2025Q4

Receivables 70.2 days −1.4 days
Inventory 54.6 days −2.4 days
Payables 51.3 days +2.3 days
Cash Conversion Cycle 73.4 days −6.1 days

Is financial risk significant?

Financial risk is low — leverage is safe, both CFO and FCF are positive.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 0.89x and interest coverage only at 1.89x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 36.4% of total debt, cash equals 32.6% of debt, and total debt stands at 11,705.7bn.

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

Interest coverage is thin

Interest coverage is 1.89x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Leverage and liquidity trend

Net Debt / Equity 0.89x −0.23x
Interest Coverage 1.89x +1.15x
Cash / Debt 32.6% +12.4pp
Short-term Debt / Total Debt 36.4% +9.0pp
CFO / NI 2.17x −0.78x

Cash Flow

With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 2,272.7bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -1,474.0bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +798.7bn. Financing cash flow was positive +728.9bn.

CFO / net income was 2.17x.

After spending +1,351.8bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +920.9bn.

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

Cash Conversion

Cash Capex 1,351.8bn +918.1bn
FCF TTM +920.9bn +283.0bn

Investment Takeaway

The business is showing brightening signals, but the improvement is still early and not yet thick enough to read as a confirmed trend. The brighter spot is operating efficiency, with net margin improving 4.5 pp. The next item to monitor is capital efficiency, with ROIC at 8.2%. The main risk still sits in leverage and liquidity, with interest coverage at 1.89x.

Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 10.40% after expanding 4.5pp versus the same period last year.

Watchpoint: Capital efficiency needs cycle context.

Key risk: leverage and liquidity still require discipline, with interest coverage only at 1.89x.
