What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, CDO has not accelerated revenue sharply, but profitability is improving visibly — 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.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 -0.5% = -5.2% × 0.09 × 1.13
2026Q1 1.8% = 15.6% × 0.11 × 1.10

ROE rose from -0.5% to 1.8% — mainly driven by net margin, despite leverage moving in the opposite direction.

Net margin: 15.6% +20.7pp Asset turnover: 0.11x +0.01x Leverage: 1.10x -0.02x

Is the profit sustainable?

Accounting profit is positive but operating cash flow has not caught up — needs more time to confirm.

very positive positive stable watch under pressure

What is driving the margin?

Net margin expanded to 15.58%, rising 20.7pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 5.4pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 0.1pp (with additional support from Net financial result / Revenue rose 15.4pp).

Most of the margin increase comes from non-core items — core operations have not kept pace, this is a margin expansion to watch carefully.

Watchpoints

Financial result is supporting margin

Financial result accounts for 104.0% of PBT and lifted net margin by 15.4pp — separate the operating contribution from this source.

Is capital being used efficiently?

Evaluate capital, asset, and working-capital efficiency.

Balance Sheet

Balance sheet is exceptionally sound — liabilities at 0.10x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.01x equity.

Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 5.0bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables. Part of that drag was offset by higher payables.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables increased → lower CFO: −5.0bn
Inventories were broadly stable → neutral CFO:
Payables increased → higher CFO: +0.0bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Track receivable, inventory, and payable turns to judge working-capital efficiency.

Track DSO, DIO, DPO components to evaluate working capital turnover efficiency.

Payables 90.3 days −34.4 days

Is financial risk significant?

Leverage is safe but FCF is negative at 6.4bn due to capex of 1.1bn — an investment choice, not an urgent risk.

Leverage & Liquidity

Track net leverage, interest coverage, and the liquidity buffer on the balance sheet.

Debt maturity and the cash buffer remain the two key areas to monitor.

Some leverage signals are missing, so the current read should be treated as contextual.

Cash Flow

Post-investment cash flow was positive +1.6bn. Financing cash flow was positive 0.0bn.

CFO / net income was -2.09x.

After spending +1.1bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −6.4bn.

Cash Conversion

TTM Cash Conversion · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Cash Capex 1.1bn −0.3bn
FCF TTM −6.4bn −2.6bn

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 20.7 pp. Even so, earnings quality still needs closer monitoring because net financial result remains elevated. The main risk still sits in self-funded cash generation remains weak.

Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 15.58% after expanding 20.7pp versus the same period last year.

Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 104.0% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at -2.09x.

Key risk: self-funded cash generation remains weak, with trailing-12M FCF still at 6.4bn.
