What Is Changing
On a TTM 2025Q4 basis, BOT posted a very sharp profit drop versus the same period, showing that pressure has clearly fed through to the bottom line — profit is at an all-time high. More notably, most of the profit comes from non-core sources — this needs careful evaluation before concluding on growth quality.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE fell from 90.0% to -29.4% — all three components weakened, with net margin being the main drag.
Is the profit sustainable?
Margins are under pressure while earnings still rely significantly on non-core sources.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin fell to -155.35%, losing 215.4pp. The main pressure comes from Gross margin fell 18.8pp and SG&A / Revenue rose 9.5pp (with lingering pressure from Net financial result / Revenue fell 187.1pp).
The pressure comes from non-core items while core operations hold their rhythm — margin has a basis to recover once this factor passes.
Profitability trend

Watchpoints
Even though contribution decreased by 187.1pp, financial result still accounts for 136.3% of PBT — earnings durability should be monitored in coming periods.
Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital efficiency for construction contractors should be read alongside project progress and receivables collection from developers — ROIC fluctuates with handover cycles.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
Track how much operating profit the business generates on invested capital.
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
Balance Sheet
ROIC for construction contractors swings with project progress and handover cycles — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Capital structure is notably light for construction contractors — liabilities at -96.51x equity, net debt at 3.24x equity.
Over the last 12 months, working capital released 0.0bn of cash.
Working Capital Drivers
TTM YoY · 2024Q4 -> 2025Q4
Working Capital Efficiency
Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 294.1 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 81.8 days, DSO rose 488.6 days, and DPO rose 276.3 days.
Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to slower receivables collection — receivables quality needs monitoring.
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 186.0 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.
DSO increased by +488.6 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Is financial risk significant?
High leverage combined with negative operating cash flow — this area needs close monitoring.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 3.24x and interest coverage only at -0.73x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 48.6% of total debt, cash equals 0.6% of debt, and total debt stands at 978.0bn.
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 3.24x, increasing balance-sheet pressure.
Interest coverage is -0.73x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Cash Flow
High leverage combined with cash flow below reveals the actual liquidity pressure. Operating cash flow reached -79.5bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of 89.4bn.
Post-investment cash flow was positive +9.9bn. Financing cash flow was negative +5.0bn.
CFO / net income was 0.77x.
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.

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 core profitability, with net margin down 215.4 pp.
Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 136.3% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at 0.77x.
Key risk: profitability remains under pressure, with trailing-12M net margin at -155.35% after a 215.4pp decline versus the same period last year.
