What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, SD6 is under pressure on both revenue and margins simultaneously — margins have been compressing consistently over multiple periods. More notably, profit is significantly supported by non-core sources and operating cash flow is not yet positive — the earnings quality picture needs close monitoring.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 -17.0% = -39.5% × 0.10 × 4.28
2026Q1 -21.1% = -74.2% × 0.05 × 5.98

ROE fell from -17.0% to -21.1% — net margin weakened the most, though leverage still provided support.

Net margin: -74.2% -34.7pp Asset turnover: 0.05x -0.05x Leverage: 5.98x +1.69x

Is the profit sustainable?

Margins are under pressure while earnings still rely significantly on non-core sources.

very positive positive stable watch under pressure

What is driving the margin?

Net margin fell to -74.24%, losing 34.7pp. The main pressure is SG&A / Revenue rose 26.3pp, outweighing the improvement in Gross margin rose 49.1pp (with lingering pressure from Net financial result / Revenue fell 52.1pp and Other profit / Revenue fell 5.6pp).

The pressure comes from non-core items while core operations hold their rhythm — margin has a basis to recover once this factor passes.

Profitability trend

Net Margin -74.24% −34.7pp
Gross Margin 28.67% +49.1pp
SG&A / Revenue 44.46% +26.3pp

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Watchpoints

Financial result share remains high

Even though contribution decreased by 57.7pp, financial result still accounts for 78.7% of PBT — earnings durability should be monitored in coming periods.

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.

Capital Turnover 0.11x −0.09x
Average Invested Capital 331.3bn −125.7bn

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 5.34x equity, net debt at 1.54x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 343.1bn, roughly 47.5% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 98.4bn of cash, mainly thanks to lower receivables and lower inventories. Pressure from lower payables only partly offset that benefit.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables decreased → higher CFO: +119.1bn
Inventories decreased → higher CFO: +6.4bn
Payables decreased → lower CFO: −27.1bn

Working Capital Efficiency

The inventory build-up noted above is reflected in a longer cash cycle. Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 4253.0 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 3479.9 days, DSO rose 1882.1 days, and DPO rose 1108.9 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 remains stretched

CCC stands at 6985.9 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Receivables collection is slowing

DSO increased by +1882.1 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Working Capital Efficiency

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables 3622.4 days +1882.1 days

Payables 1535.3 days +1108.9 days
Cash Conversion Cycle 6985.9 days +4253.0 days

Is financial risk significant?

Check leverage, liquidity, and cash-flow conversion.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 1.54x and interest coverage only at -1.15x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 5.7% of debt, and total debt stands at 185.4bn.

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 1.54x, increasing balance-sheet pressure.

Interest coverage is thin

Interest coverage is -1.15x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Cash Flow

Leverage needs watching — cash flow below shows the ability to service debt from operations. Operating cash flow reached 81.6bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -1.0bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +80.7bn. Financing cash flow was negative +65.9bn.

CFO / net income was -2.64x.

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 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 34.7 pp. The next watchpoint is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is 70.8%.

Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 70.8% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at -2.64x.

Key risk: profitability remains under pressure, with trailing-12M net margin at -74.24% after a 34.7pp decline versus the same period last year.
