What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, C69 posted a sharp profit increase versus the same period, suggesting a clear improvement from a low base — profit is at an all-time high. However, operating cash flow is significantly negative relative to profit — this needs monitoring in coming periods.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE rose from 2.9% to 6.3% — mainly driven by leverage, despite asset turnover moving in the opposite direction.
Is the profit sustainable?
Accounting profit is positive but operating cash flow has not caught up — needs more time to confirm.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin expanded to 5.82%, rising 3.6pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 4.1pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 1.0pp (in addition, Net financial result / Revenue rose 1.3pp added support while Other profit / Revenue fell 0.3pp remained a drag).
The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital efficiency for construction contractors should be read alongside project progress and receivables collection from developers — ROIC of 4.9% fluctuates with handover cycles.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC expanded to 4.90%, rising 2.6pp. That translates to 4.90 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main driver is NOPAT margin rose 3.9pp, with capital turnover fell 0.23x; while invested capital rose by 93bn.
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. Capital structure is notably light for construction contractors — liabilities at 0.73x equity, net debt at 0.45x equity.
Inventory ended the period at 951.3bn, roughly 61.8% of total assets.
Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 171.6bn 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
Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 132.9 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 145.9 days, DSO fell 10.3 days, and DPO rose 2.7 days.
Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to slower inventory turnover — more capital is being tied up in inventory.
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 311.2 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.
DIO increased by +145.9 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

Is financial risk significant?
Leverage is safe but FCF is negative at 139.8bn due to capex of 8.2bn — an investment choice, not an urgent risk.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage looks fairly comfortable, with net debt / equity at 0.45x and interest coverage at 6.16x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 44.0% of total debt, cash equals 6.1% of debt, and total debt stands at 435.9bn.
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
Cash / debt stands at 6.1%, leaving limited liquidity buffer to monitor.

Cash Flow
Operating cash flow reached -150.0bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -13.6bn.
Post-investment cash flow was negative +163.7bn. Financing cash flow was positive +157.9bn.
CFO / net income was -2.55x.
After spending +8.2bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −139.8bn.
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 operating efficiency, with net margin improving 3.6 pp. The next item to monitor is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is 24.3%. The main risk still sits in leverage and liquidity, with interest coverage at 6.16x.
Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 5.82% after expanding 3.6pp versus the same period last year.
Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 24.3% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at -2.55x.
Key risk: leverage and liquidity remain a pressure point, with net debt / equity at 0.45x and a thin cash buffer.
