What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, AAT is improving on both revenue and margins, suggesting current growth is backed by both scale and operating efficiency — the growth momentum has held across consecutive periods. However, operating cash flow is significantly negative relative to profit — this needs monitoring in coming periods.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 0.5% = 0.6% × 0.48 × 1.62
2026Q1 2.3% = 1.7% × 0.72 × 1.92

ROE rose from 0.5% to 2.3% — all three components improved, with leverage contributing the most.

Net margin: 1.7% +1.0pp Asset turnover: 0.72x +0.24x Leverage: 1.92x +0.30x

Is the profit sustainable?

Accounting profit is positive but operating cash flow has not caught up — needs more time to confirm.

very positive positive stable watch under pressure

What is driving the margin?

Net margin edged up to 1.65%, rising 1.0pp. Core operating signals are improving as SG&A / Revenue fell 3.8pp are enough to offset pressure from Gross margin fell 4.4pp (with additional support from Net financial result / Revenue rose 0.6pp and Other profit / Revenue rose 0.3pp).

Most of the margin increase comes from non-core items — core operations have not kept pace, this is a margin expansion to watch carefully.

Net Margin 1.65% +1.0pp
Gross Margin 7.92% −4.4pp
SG&A / Revenue 2.85% −3.8pp

Is capital being used efficiently?

Capital is being used more efficiently — ROIC rose and cash cycle shortened to 12.7 days.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

ROIC edged up to 1.45%, rising 1.0pp. That translates to 1.45 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both NOPAT margin rose 0.8pp and capital turnover rose 0.34x, while invested capital rose by 120bn — capital-return quality improved from both sides.

NOPAT margin is the main cushion preventing ROIC from slipping as invested capital keeps expanding — the quality of this improvement depends on whether margin holds once the new capital is fully deployed.

Watchpoints

ROIC remains low

ROIC is currently 1.45% — below the typical cost-of-capital threshold; worth tracking whether upcoming periods can rise above this level.

CAPITAL EFFICIENCY TREND

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

ROIC 1.45% +1.0pp
NOPAT Margin 1.58% +0.8pp
Capital Turnover 0.91x +0.34x
Average Invested Capital 1,135.3bn +120.2bn

Balance Sheet

ROIC is improving — the asset structure below shows how capital is being allocated. Capital structure is balanced — liabilities at 0.95x equity, net debt at 0.56x equity.

Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 130.6bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and higher inventories.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables increased → lower CFO: −105.4bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −4.4bn
Payables decreased → lower CFO: −20.8bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 16.2 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 7.2 days, DSO fell 14.9 days, and DPO fell 5.9 days.

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

Working Capital Efficiency

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables 13.1 days −14.9 days
Inventory 4.7 days −7.2 days
Payables 5.1 days −5.9 days
Cash Conversion Cycle 12.7 days −16.2 days

Is financial risk significant?

Leverage is safe but FCF is negative at 326.0bn due to capex of 104.5bn — an investment choice, not an urgent risk.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 0.56x and interest coverage only at 0.59x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 55.6% of total debt, cash equals 5.7% of debt, and total debt stands at 448.8bn.

Watchpoints

Interest coverage is thin

Interest coverage is 0.59x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Cash buffer is thin relative to debt

Cash / debt stands at 5.7%, leaving limited liquidity buffer to monitor.

Cash Flow

Operating cash flow reached -90.4bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -28.8bn.

Post-investment cash flow was negative +119.2bn. Financing cash flow was positive +65.4bn.

CFO / net income was -8.87x.

After spending +104.5bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −326.0bn.

Cash Conversion

CFO TTM 221.5bn −71.7bn
Cash Capex 104.5bn
FCF TTM −326.0bn

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 capital efficiency remains weak remaining the main constraint, with ROIC at 1.4%. The main offsetting support comes from operating efficiency, with net margin improving 1.0 pp.

Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 1.65% after expanding 1.0pp versus the same period last year.

Key risk: Capital efficiency remains weak.
