What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, CVN posted a very sharp profit drop versus the same period, showing that pressure has clearly fed through to the bottom line — margins have been compressing consistently over multiple periods. More notably, operating cash flow is significantly negative relative to profit — this is pressure that needs close monitoring.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 0.1% = 0.4% × 0.22 × 1.15
2026Q1 -3.1% = -48.4% × 0.06 × 1.16

ROE fell from 0.1% to -3.1% — net margin weakened the most, though leverage still provided support.

Net margin: -48.4% -48.9pp Asset turnover: 0.06x -0.17x Leverage: 1.16x +0.00x

Is the profit sustainable?

Start with profitability and earnings quality.

What is driving the margin?

Net margin fell to -48.43%, losing 48.9pp. The main pressure is SG&A / Revenue rose 24.0pp, outweighing the improvement in Gross margin rose 2.3pp (with lingering pressure from Other profit / Revenue fell 5.6pp and Net financial result / Revenue fell 5.0pp).

The pressure comes from core operations — this is a concerning type of decline, not a one-off movement.

Watchpoints

Contribution from financial result

Profit includes a contribution from financial result (32.1% of PBT), not dominant but worth monitoring across periods.

Is capital being used efficiently?

Capital efficiency should be read in industry context — ROIC may fluctuate with business specifics.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

Track how much operating profit the business generates on invested capital.

Industry characteristics make ROIC cyclical — this is a reference signal and should be read with the business context.

Balance Sheet

ROIC above should be read with industry context — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 0.17x equity, net debt at 0.15x equity.

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

Working Capital Efficiency

Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 229.5 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 63.5 days, DSO rose 220.4 days, and DPO rose 54.4 days.

Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to slower receivables collection — receivables quality needs monitoring.

Watchpoints

Cash conversion cycle remains stretched

CCC stands at 462.1 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Receivables collection is slowing

DSO increased by +220.4 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Is financial risk significant?

Check leverage, liquidity, and cash-flow conversion.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 0.15x and interest coverage only at -3.69x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 4.9% of debt, and total debt stands at 49.6bn.

Watchpoints

Interest coverage is thin

Interest coverage is -3.69x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Short-term refinancing pressure is meaningful

Short-term debt accounts for 100.0% 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 37.8bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -32.8bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +5.0bn. Financing cash flow was negative +4.5bn.

CFO / net income was -3.11x.

Track how much investment can be funded internally from operating cash flow.

Cash capex or FCF data is incomplete, so the cash-conversion view is only partial.

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. The next item to monitor is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is 20.2%. The main risk still sits in core profitability, with net margin down 48.9 pp.

Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 20.2% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at -3.11x.

Key risk: profitability remains under pressure, with trailing-12M net margin at -48.43% after a 48.9pp decline versus the same period last year.
