What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, CDP has not moved the needle on revenue, but profitability has edged up slightly — margins have been expanding consistently over multiple periods. Notably, 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
ROE rose from 10.2% to 13.6% — mainly driven by leverage, despite asset turnover moving in the opposite direction.
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 stands at 0.97%, broadly flat versus the same period. Supportive factors and pressure points are offsetting one another.
Margin is nearly flat but the underlying components are moving — this is a transitional phase, more time is needed to see the real trend.
Profitability trend
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Is capital being used efficiently?
Evaluate capital, asset, and working-capital efficiency.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC edged up to 2.66%, rising 0.5pp. That translates to 2.66 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main driver is NOPAT margin rose 0.3pp, with capital turnover fell 0.46x; while invested capital rose by 139bn.
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 is currently 2.66% — below the typical cost-of-capital threshold; worth tracking whether upcoming periods can rise above this level.
CAPITAL EFFICIENCY TREND
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Balance Sheet
Leverage is very high, with clear pressure on the capital structure — liabilities at 9.60x equity, net debt at 4.27x equity.
Inventory ended the period at 944.9bn, roughly 39.1% of total assets.
Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 185.9bn 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 lengthened by 21.3 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 5.1 days, DSO rose 22.1 days, and DPO rose 5.9 days.
Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to slower receivables collection — receivables quality needs monitoring.
Watchpoints
CCC stands at 109.4 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.
DSO increased by +22.1 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Is financial risk significant?
High leverage combined with negative operating cash flow — this area needs close monitoring.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 4.27x and interest coverage only at 0.64x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 97.2% of total debt, cash equals 1.7% of debt, and total debt stands at 1,023.3bn.
Watchpoints
Net debt / equity stands at 4.27x, increasing balance-sheet pressure.
Interest coverage is 0.64x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.
Leverage and liquidity trend
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Cash Flow
High leverage combined with cash flow below reveals the actual liquidity pressure. Operating cash flow reached -91.0bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of 5.0bn.
Post-investment cash flow was negative +86.0bn. Financing cash flow was positive +95.0bn.
CFO / net income was -3.65x.
After spending +1.5bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −115.1bn.
Cash Conversion

Investment Takeaway
The business is showing a few weaker signals, but the current magnitude is not yet clear enough to conclude that this is a broader weakening phase. The brighter spot is earnings conversion is confirmed, with CFO/NI at -3.65x. The main risk still sits in capital efficiency remains weak, with ROIC at 2.7%.
Improvement: earnings conversion looks more confirmed, with CFO / net income at -3.65x.
Key risk: Capital efficiency remains weak.
