What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, VCC is growing strongly on the back of scale expansion, while margins have only improved slightly — margins have just broken out to a notably higher level. What is still missing is the ability to translate this revenue momentum into more visible margin improvement.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE rose from 3.1% to 9.9% — mainly driven by asset turnover, despite leverage moving in the opposite direction.
Is the profit sustainable?
Margins are improving and earnings quality is solid — a durable foundation for ROE.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin edged up to 1.60%, rising 0.9pp. Core operating signals are improving as SG&A / Revenue fell 1.7pp are enough to offset pressure from Gross margin fell 0.8pp (with additional support from Net financial result / Revenue rose 0.4pp and Other profit / Revenue rose 0.0pp).
Margin improves from both core operations and non-core items — the core foundation is positive, but the sustainability of non-core contributions needs monitoring.
Profitability trend
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital efficiency for construction contractors should be read alongside project progress and receivables collection from developers — ROIC of 4.4% fluctuates with handover cycles.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC expanded to 4.37%, rising 3.1pp. That translates to 4.37 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both NOPAT margin rose 0.8pp and capital turnover rose 0.97x, 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.

Balance Sheet
ROIC for construction contractors swings with project progress and handover cycles — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Leverage runs above the construction contractors average — project acceptance cycles warrant monitoring — liabilities at 3.84x equity, net debt at 1.18x equity.
Inventory ended the period at 531.2bn, roughly 37.7% of total assets.
Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 3.0bn of cash, mainly because of higher inventories. Part of that drag was offset by lower receivables and higher payables.
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 83.4 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 42.9 days, DSO fell 75.6 days, and DPO fell 35.1 days.
Improvement comes mainly from faster receivables collection — reflects the quality of receivables management.
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 158.0 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Is financial risk significant?
Check leverage, liquidity, and cash-flow conversion.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 1.18x and interest coverage only at 2.24x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 96.4% of total debt, cash equals 5.1% of debt, and total debt stands at 368.9bn.
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
Net debt / equity stands at 1.18x, increasing balance-sheet pressure.
Short-term debt accounts for 96.4% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

Cash Flow
With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 74.0bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -73.3bn.
Post-investment cash flow was positive +0.7bn. Financing cash flow was positive +20.4bn.
CFO / net income was 0.58x.
Track how much investment can be funded internally from operating cash flow.
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 brightening signals, but the improvement is still early and not yet thick enough to read as a confirmed trend. The next item to monitor is effective tax rate looks unusual, with effective tax rate at 30.3%. The main risk still sits in leverage and liquidity, with interest coverage at 2.24x.
Watchpoint: the effective tax rate looks unusual, so current net profit may not fully reflect underlying earnings quality.
Key risk: leverage and liquidity remain a pressure point, with net debt / equity at 1.18x and a thin cash buffer.
