What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, SD5 posted slightly higher revenue but margins narrowed — the two forces offset each other, leaving the overall picture largely unchanged — the growth momentum has held across consecutive periods. More notably, profit relies heavily on non-core sources while operating cash flow is negative — these two factors together suggest earnings quality needs cautious evaluation.

Drivers of SD5's profit
Net profit attributable to parent declined vs last year, mainly due to lower gross profit. Supporting and offsetting drivers:

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE is broadly flat at 4.9% — the components are offsetting one another.
Is the profit sustainable?
Margins are under pressure while earnings still rely significantly on non-core sources.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin stands at 0.77%, broadly flat versus the same period. Supportive factors and pressure points are offsetting one another.
Margin is nearly flat but the underlying components are moving — this is a transitional phase, more time is needed to see the real trend.
Profitability trend
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Watchpoints
Financial result accounts for 180.1% of PBT and lifted net margin by 1.1pp — separate the operating contribution from this source.
Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital efficiency for construction contractors should be read alongside project progress and receivables collection from developers — ROIC of 5.5% fluctuates with handover cycles.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC stands at 5.54%, broadly flat versus the same period. That translates to 5.54 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. NOPAT margin steady, but capital turnover rose 1.33x, with invested capital holding roughly steady — the two factors are offsetting each other, keeping overall ROIC nearly unchanged.
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 · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
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 1.88x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.09x equity.
Inventory ended the period at 425.9bn, roughly 30.7% of total assets.
Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 151.1bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and lower payables. Part of that drag was offset by lower inventories.
Working Capital Drivers
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Working Capital Efficiency
Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 15.6 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 20.6 days, DSO rose 1.2 days, and DPO fell 3.8 days.
Improvement comes mainly from faster inventory turnover — watch whether this trend persists in coming periods.
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.
Watchpoints
CCC stands at 112.8 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.
DSO increased by +1.2 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Is financial risk significant?
Financial risk is low — the company has net cash and CFO reached 76.3bn.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at -0.09x and interest coverage only at 0.20x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 94.8% of total debt, cash equals 126.1% of debt, and total debt stands at 161.5bn.
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 0.20x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.
Short-term debt accounts for 94.8% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.
Leverage and liquidity trend
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Cash Flow
With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 76.3bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -0.0bn.
Post-investment cash flow was positive +76.3bn. Financing cash flow was negative +25.3bn.
CFO / net income was -1.93x.
After spending +9.3bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −55.3bn.
For construction contractors, FCF swings sharply with project progress and payment cycles — should be read alongside backlog and receivables quality.
Cash Conversion

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. Even so, earnings quality still needs closer monitoring because net financial result remains elevated. The main risk still sits in leverage and liquidity, with interest coverage at 0.20x.
Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 179.2% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at -1.93x.
Key risk: leverage and liquidity still require discipline, with interest coverage only at 0.20x.
