What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, TA9 shows mild improvement in both revenue and margins, but the magnitude of change is narrow — profit momentum has been slowing across consecutive periods. This signal only becomes convincing if the improvement widens in coming periods.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 15.5% = 0.8% × 1.52 × 12.92
2026Q1 15.6% = 0.8% × 1.16 × 16.98

ROE is broadly flat at 15.6% — the components are offsetting one another.

Net margin: 0.8% +0.0pp Asset turnover: 1.16x -0.35x Leverage: 16.98x +4.06x

Is the profit sustainable?

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

What is driving the margin?

Net margin stands at 0.79%, 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.

Is capital being used efficiently?

Capital efficiency for construction contractors should be read alongside project progress and receivables collection from developers — ROIC of -411.1% fluctuates with handover cycles.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

ROIC fell to -411.14%, losing 431.7pp. That translates to -411.14 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main pressure came from capital turnover fell 601.09x — capital is being absorbed faster than revenue is being generated; while invested capital contracted by 128bn.

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

ROIC -411.14% −431.7pp

Average Invested Capital 5.7bn −128.3bn

Balance Sheet

ROIC for construction contractors swings with project progress and handover cycles — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Leverage is well above the construction contractors norm — liquidity risk becomes material if project acceptance slips — liabilities at 12.67x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 3.28x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 469.8bn, roughly 20.4% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 0.0bn of cash.

Working Capital Efficiency

Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 11.4 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 5.2 days, DSO rose 7.8 days, and DPO fell 8.9 days.

Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to shorter payment timing — may reflect pressure from suppliers.

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

Cash conversion cycle is lengthening

CCC is up by +11.4 days, indicating weaker working-capital turnover versus the prior year.

Receivables collection is slowing

DSO increased by +7.8 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Receivables 34.0 days +7.8 days
Inventory 118.8 days −5.2 days
Payables 63.9 days −8.9 days
Cash Conversion Cycle 88.8 days +11.4 days

Is financial risk significant?

Financial risk is low — the company has net cash and CFO reached 308.4bn.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at -3.28x and interest coverage only at 1.69x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 87.2% of total debt, cash equals 328.7% of debt, and total debt stands at 242.2bn.

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 1.69x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Short-term refinancing pressure is meaningful

Short-term debt accounts for 87.2% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

Net Debt / Equity -3.28x −4.53x
Interest Coverage 1.69x −0.72x

Cash Flow

With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 308.4bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -51.2bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +257.2bn. Financing cash flow was negative +12.7bn.

CFO / net income was 32.11x.

After spending +69.9bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +767.5bn.

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

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 earnings conversion is confirmed, with CFO/NI at 32.11x. The next item to monitor is capital efficiency, with ROIC at -411.1%. The main risk still sits in leverage and liquidity, with interest coverage at 1.69x.

Improvement: earnings conversion looks more confirmed, with CFO / net income at 32.11x.

Watchpoint: Capital efficiency needs cycle context.

Key risk: leverage and liquidity still require discipline, with interest coverage only at 1.69x.
