## Asset intensity and goodwill

Ratios are derived from reported values. Goodwill is used only when separately reported, never inferred from combined intangible assets.

| Metric | Value | Sources |
| --- | ---: | ---: |

| Fixed assets ÷ total assets | 24.8% | S100YDXD |
| Goodwill ÷ parent equity | — | —, S100YDXD |

### Cash quality

Net cash = cash − interest-bearing debt. Net debt ratio = (interest-bearing debt − cash) ÷ positive operating cash flow. Omit when debt components are incomplete; other ratios are derived from reported figures.

| Metric | Value |
| --- | ---: |
| Cash ratio (cash ÷ total assets) | 13.4% |

| CapEx intensity (capex ÷ revenue) | 4.8% |
| Investing CF relative to operating CF | 16.5% |

## ROA and ROE

ROE is decomposed into net margin × asset turnover × financial leverage. Leverage can raise ROE, so the ratio alone does not assess a company's condition. Ending balances are used without a prior year; total equity approximates parent equity when unavailable.

## AI commentary（text by AI; the tables above are authoritative、claude-code）

- Revenue for the FY ending Mar 2026 was ¥2.06T, up +5.8% from ¥1.94T.
- Profit rose much faster: operating income climbed +67.1% to ¥118.7B, and net income attributable to owners rose +91.8% to ¥126.6B.
- Cash was a different story. Operating cash flow fell from ¥159.1B to ¥41.6B, and free cash flow turned negative at -¥57B.

### Drivers

- Domestic building projects became more profitable, which raised gross profit on construction work.
- Net income also got a lift from gains on selling investment securities, booked as extraordinary income.
- Operating cash flow shrank because more money was tied up in receivables from customers.

### Risks

- If material prices or labor rates rise sharply after a contract is signed and cannot be passed on, project profits can suffer.
- The skilled construction workforce is aging, and a shortage of new workers could hold back the company's capacity to build.
- Serious accidents or quality defects on site could bring large repair costs and delays.
