What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, SCG is showing some signs of improvement versus the same period, but the current picture is not yet broad enough to confirm a stronger trend — profit is at an all-time high. The point still to be proven is whether this improvement broadens out in coming periods.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 15.1% = 6.9% × 0.37 × 6.04
2026Q1 22.5% = 5.0% × 0.64 × 7.00

ROE rose from 15.1% to 22.5% — mainly driven by leverage, despite net margin moving in the opposite direction.

Net margin: 5.0% -1.8pp Asset turnover: 0.64x +0.27x Leverage: 7.00x +0.96x

Is the profit sustainable?

Margins narrowed but earnings quality remains clean — pressure is mainly operational.

very positive positive stable watch under pressure

What is driving the margin?

Net margin fell to 5.02%, losing 1.8pp. The main pressure is Gross margin fell 1.9pp, outweighing the improvement in SG&A / Revenue fell 1.6pp (in addition, Other profit / Revenue rose 0.1pp added support while Net financial result / Revenue fell 1.3pp remained a drag).

Margin is under pressure from multiple sides — temporary and structural components need to be separated to properly assess the risk.

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Is capital being used efficiently?

Capital efficiency for construction contractors should be read alongside project progress and receivables collection from developers — ROIC of 6.7% fluctuates with handover cycles.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

ROIC expanded to 6.71%, rising 2.7pp. That translates to 6.71 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main driver is capital turnover rose 0.77x — the business is generating more revenue per unit of capital, with NOPAT margin narrowed 1.9pp; while invested capital rose by 281bn.

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 6.71% +2.7pp
NOPAT Margin 5.01% −1.9pp
Capital Turnover 1.34x +0.77x
Average Invested Capital 5,167.7bn +281.2bn

Balance Sheet

ROIC for construction contractors swings with project progress and handover cycles — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Leverage is well above the construction contractors norm — liquidity risk becomes material if project acceptance slips — liabilities at 5.99x equity, net debt at 1.99x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 2,239.0bn, roughly 19.0% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 562.8bn of cash, mainly thanks to higher payables. Pressure from higher receivables and higher inventories only partly offset that benefit.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables increased → lower CFO: −1,692.7bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −2,009.3bn
Payables increased → higher CFO: +4,264.8bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 8.6 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 11.9 days, DSO fell 69.0 days, and DPO fell 48.5 days.

Improvement comes mainly from faster receivables collection — reflects the quality of receivables management.

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 269.7 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Inventory turnover is slowing

DIO increased by +11.9 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

Working Capital Efficiency

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables 191.3 days −69.0 days
Inventory 139.3 days +11.9 days
Payables 60.9 days −48.5 days
Cash Conversion Cycle 269.7 days −8.6 days

Is financial risk significant?

Check leverage, liquidity, and cash-flow conversion.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 1.99x and interest coverage only at 1.19x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 92.8% of total debt, cash equals 1.2% of debt, and total debt stands at 3,469.6bn.

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

Net leverage is elevated

Net debt / equity stands at 1.99x, increasing balance-sheet pressure.

Interest coverage is thin

Interest coverage is 1.19x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Leverage and liquidity trend

Net Debt / Equity 1.99x −0.80x
Interest Coverage 1.19x +0.53x
Cash / Debt 1.2% −2.5pp
Short-term Debt / Total Debt 92.8% −7.2pp
CFO / NI 1.88x +5.69x

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Cash Flow

Leverage needs watching — cash flow below shows the ability to service debt from operations. Operating cash flow reached 1,595.1bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -227.0bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +1,368.2bn. Financing cash flow was negative +1,388.6bn.

CFO / net income was 1.88x.

After spending +3.0bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +652.1bn.

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 655.1bn +1,382.6bn
Cash Capex 3.0bn +2.7bn
FCF TTM +652.1bn +1,379.9bn

Investment Takeaway

The business is under real pressure, but the current picture has not turned broadly adverse. A notable area has clearly weakened, making the near-term outlook hard to call bright; even so, other parts of the business are still holding up, with margins remain under pressure remaining the main constraint, with net margin down 1.8 pp. The next watchpoint is capital efficiency, with ROIC at 6.7%. The main offsetting support comes from earnings conversion is confirmed, with CFO/NI at 1.88x.

Improvement: earnings conversion looks more confirmed, with CFO / net income at 1.88x.

Watchpoint: Capital efficiency needs cycle context.

Key risk: profitability remains under pressure, with trailing-12M net margin at 5.02% after a 1.8pp decline versus the same period last year.
