What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, LLM 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, a significant portion of profit is supported by non-core sources, making the picture not entirely clear.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 8.9% = 1.3% × 0.98 × 6.91
2026Q1 30.8% = 10.0% × 0.54 × 5.77

ROE rose from 8.9% to 30.8% — mainly driven by net margin, despite asset turnover and leverage moving in the opposite direction.

Net margin: 10.0% +8.7pp Asset turnover: 0.54x -0.44x Leverage: 5.77x -1.14x

Is the profit sustainable?

Margins improved (+8.7pp), but earnings still rely significantly on non-core sources — warrants closer scrutiny.

very positive positive stable watch under pressure

What is driving the margin?

Net margin expanded to 9.98%, rising 8.7pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 6.3pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 1.1pp (with additional support from Other profit / Revenue rose 4.5pp and Net financial result / Revenue rose 0.5pp).

Margin improves from both core operations and non-core items — the core foundation is positive, but the sustainability of non-core contributions needs monitoring.

Watchpoints

Other income is supporting margin

Other income accounts for 48.0% of PBT and lifted net margin by 5.1pp — separate the operating contribution from this source.

Is capital being used efficiently?

Capital efficiency for construction contractors should be read alongside project progress and receivables collection from developers — ROIC of -51.8% fluctuates with handover cycles.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

ROIC fell to -51.75%, losing 16.6pp. That translates to -51.75 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. ROIC is under pressure as NOPAT margin rose 5.9pp and capital turnover rose 29.62x have not provided enough support.

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 · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

ROIC -51.75% −16.6pp
NOPAT Margin 6.89% +5.9pp
Capital Turnover -7.51x +29.62x
Average Invested Capital 531.8bn −349.3bn

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 4.19x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 1.34x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 763.1bn, roughly 10.4% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 142.6bn of cash, mainly because of lower payables. Part of that drag was offset by lower receivables and lower inventories.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables decreased → higher CFO: +824.9bn
Inventories decreased → higher CFO: +23.7bn
Payables decreased → lower CFO: −991.2bn

Working Capital Efficiency

The inventory build-up noted above is reflected in a longer cash cycle. Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 91.0 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 21.2 days, DSO rose 116.0 days, and DPO rose 46.2 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

Cash conversion cycle remains stretched

CCC stands at 162.4 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Receivables collection is slowing

DSO increased by +116.0 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Is financial risk significant?

Check leverage, liquidity, and cash-flow conversion.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage is balanced for now, with net debt / equity at -1.34x and interest coverage at 2.43x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 338.4% of debt, and total debt stands at 873.3bn.

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

Short-term refinancing pressure is meaningful

Short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

Cash Flow

Operating cash flow reached -5.7bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of 46.4bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +40.7bn. Financing cash flow was negative +360.0bn.

CFO / net income was 1.77x.

After spending +14.2bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +676.8bn.

For construction contractors, FCF swings sharply with project progress and payment cycles — should be read alongside backlog and receivables quality.

Cash Conversion

TTM Cash Conversion · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

CFO TTM 691.0bn −24.1bn
Cash Capex 14.2bn +13.3bn
FCF TTM +676.8bn −37.4bn

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 brighter spot is operating efficiency, with net margin improving 8.7 pp. The next item to monitor is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is 6.4%.

Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 9.98% after expanding 8.7pp versus the same period last year.

Watchpoint: cash flow is currently keeping pace with accounting earnings, with CFO / net income at 1.77x. Even so, net financial result still accounts for 6.4% of PBT, so the earnings mix still needs monitoring.
