What Is Changing

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE rose from 16.7% to 19.8% — all three components improved, with asset turnover contributing the most.
Is the profit sustainable?
Margins are improving and earnings quality is solid — a durable foundation for ROE.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin expanded to 23.15%, rising 2.2pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 3.1pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 1.1pp (in addition, Net financial result / Revenue rose 0.7pp added support while Other profit / Revenue fell 0.2pp remained a drag).
The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

Is capital being used efficiently?
Evaluate capital, asset, and working-capital efficiency.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC expanded to 16.80%, rising 2.6pp. That translates to 16.80 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main driver is NOPAT margin rose 2.3pp, with capital turnover broadly stable; while invested capital rose by 301bn.
Capital efficiency improved through NOPAT margin — this is a quality-led improvement when operating profit leads.

Balance Sheet
ROIC is improving — the asset structure below shows how capital is being allocated. Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 0.34x equity, net debt at 0.16x equity.
Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 19.1bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and higher inventories. Part of that drag was offset by higher payables.
Working Capital Drivers
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Working Capital Efficiency
Cash conversion cycle improved by 0.8 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 0.6 days, DSO rose 1.1 days, and DPO rose 1.3 days.
Working capital cycle is flat — components are offsetting each other.
Watchpoints
DSO increased by +1.1 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 15.2% of total debt, cash equals 25.5% of debt, and total debt stands at 474.9bn.

Investment Takeaway
The business is entering a broader improvement phase — not just stronger earnings but better operating quality as well. Margin, ROIC, and cash flow all improving shows the business is growing in a cleaner and more efficient way than before. Notably, the improvement trend has been confirmed across multiple cycles, from margin to capital efficiency and cash generation.
Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 23.15% after expanding 2.2pp versus the same period last year.
