What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, SDA is in an offsetting state — revenue softened slightly but margins improved — margins have been expanding consistently over multiple periods. More notably, profit relies heavily on non-core sources while operating cash flow is negative — these two factors together suggest earnings quality needs cautious evaluation.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE is broadly flat at 5.6% — the components are offsetting one another.
Is the profit sustainable?
Accounting profit is positive but operating cash flow has not caught up — needs more time to confirm.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin expanded to 28.37%, rising 2.5pp. Despite pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 238.0pp and Gross margin fell 4.6pp, the offset came from Net financial result / Revenue rose 247.6pp.
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
Financial result accounts for 950.3% of PBT and lifted net margin by 247.6pp — separate the operating contribution from this source.
Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital efficiency should be read in industry context — ROIC may fluctuate with business specifics.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
Track how much operating profit the business generates on invested capital.
Industry characteristics make ROIC cyclical — this is a reference signal and should be read with the business context.

Working Capital Drivers
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Working Capital Efficiency
Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 84.0 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 15.0 days, DSO rose 50.9 days, and DPO rose 119.9 days.
Extended payment timing is the main driver — consider whether this trades off supplier relationships.
Watchpoints
DSO increased by +50.9 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Is financial risk significant?
Check leverage, liquidity, and cash-flow conversion.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 0.17x and interest coverage only at 0.11x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 18.3% of debt, and total debt stands at 15.9bn.
Watchpoints
Interest coverage is 0.11x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.
Short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

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 leverage and liquidity remaining the main constraint, with interest coverage at 0.11x. The next watchpoint is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is 950.3%. The main offsetting support comes from operating efficiency, with net margin improving 2.5 pp.
Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 28.37% after expanding 2.5pp versus the same period last year.
Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 950.3% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at -13.92x.
Key risk: leverage and liquidity still require discipline, with interest coverage only at 0.11x.
