What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, QTC is improving on both revenue and margins, suggesting current growth is backed by both scale and operating efficiency — the growth momentum has held across consecutive periods. 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

2025Q1 6.2% = 3.2% × 1.44 × 1.31
2026Q1 9.9% = 4.4% × 1.64 × 1.36

ROE rose from 6.2% to 9.9% — all three components improved, with asset turnover contributing the most.

Net margin: 4.4% +1.2pp Asset turnover: 1.64x +0.20x Leverage: 1.36x +0.05x

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 edged up to 4.42%, rising 1.2pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 1.1pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 0.7pp (in addition, Other profit / Revenue rose 1.2pp added support while Net financial result / Revenue fell 0.5pp remained a drag).

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

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.

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 0.46x equity, net debt at 0.08x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 14.5bn, roughly 24.1% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 9.0bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and higher inventories.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables increased → lower CFO: −1.6bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −4.5bn
Payables decreased → lower CFO: −2.9bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 14.3 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 12.9 days, DSO fell 7.3 days, and DPO fell 8.8 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

Cash conversion cycle is lengthening

CCC is up by +14.3 days, indicating weaker working-capital turnover versus the prior year.

Inventory turnover is slowing

DIO increased by +12.9 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

Cash Conversion Cycle 85.5 days +14.3 days

Is financial risk significant?

Check leverage, liquidity, and cash-flow conversion.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage looks fairly comfortable, with net debt / equity at 0.08x and interest coverage at 11.35x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 11.6% of debt, and total debt stands at 3.9bn.

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

Short-term refinancing pressure is meaningful

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

Cash buffer is thin relative to debt

Cash / debt stands at 11.6%, leaving limited liquidity buffer to monitor.

Interest Coverage 11.35x −8.75x
Cash / Debt 11.6%

Cash Flow

Operating cash flow reached -3.0bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -0.9bn.

Post-investment cash flow was negative +3.8bn. Financing cash flow was negative +0.0bn.

CFO / net income was -0.68x.

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 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 1.2 pp. The next item to monitor is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is 19.9%.

Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 4.42% after expanding 1.2pp versus the same period last year.

Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 19.9% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at -0.68x.
