Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE rose from 0.6% to 2.9% — all three components improved, with net margin contributing the most.
Is the profit sustainable?
Margins are improving and earnings quality is solid — a durable foundation for ROE.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin expanded to 34.81%, rising 21.1pp. The main driver is SG&A / Revenue fell 28.2pp and Gross margin rose 12.7pp, moving in line with the stronger net margin (with lingering pressure from Net financial result / Revenue fell 12.2pp).
The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital efficiency for residential developers should be read alongside project cycles and handover timing — ROIC of 2.8% fluctuates with handover cycles.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC expanded to 2.78%, rising 2.3pp. That translates to 2.78 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main driver is NOPAT margin rose 23.9pp, with capital turnover broadly stable; with invested capital holding roughly steady.
For real estate developers, ROIC moves with project cycles — this is a reference signal, and the real assessment needs upcoming handover periods.

Cash Flow
With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 1.9bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of 0.7bn.
Post-investment cash flow was positive +2.5bn. Financing cash flow was negative +1.6bn.
CFO / net income was 0.30x.
Track how much investment can be funded internally from operating cash flow.
For residential developers, FCF and CFO swing with project cycles — negative during investment phases and positive at handover — not representative of single-year efficiency.

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 21.1 pp. The next item to monitor is capital efficiency, with ROIC at 2.8%.
Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 34.81% after expanding 21.1pp versus the same period last year.
Watchpoint: Capital efficiency needs cycle context.
