What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, DDM posted a sharp profit increase versus the same period, suggesting a clear improvement from a low base — profit is at an all-time high. The point still to be proven is whether this new profit level can hold once the low-base effect fades.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE fell from 10.5% to -12.6% — asset turnover weakened the most, though net margin and leverage still provided support.
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 50.07%, rising 84.5pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 14.0pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 3.2pp (with additional support from Net financial result / Revenue rose 10.8pp).
The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital efficiency is declining — check whether the drag is from margins or turnover.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC fell to 14.19%, losing 19.2pp. That translates to 14.19 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main pressure came from NOPAT margin rose 21.5pp, outweighing the movement in capital turnover.
Pressure came from the margin side — core operations are weakening, not just a temporary asset-management issue.

Balance Sheet
ROIC declined — the balance sheet shows how capital is being deployed. Balance sheet is exceptionally sound — liabilities at -1.47x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.53x equity.
Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 117.9bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and lower payables. Part of that drag was offset by lower inventories.
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 17.5 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 5.6 days, DSO rose 3.1 days, and DPO rose 26.1 days.
Extended payment timing is the main driver — consider whether this trades off supplier relationships.
Watchpoints
DSO increased by +3.1 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.
DIO increased by +5.6 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

Is financial risk significant?
Financial risk is low — the company has net cash and CFO reached 14.3bn.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at -0.53x and interest coverage only at -2.08x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 6.1% of total debt, cash equals 1.2% of debt, and total debt stands at 391.5bn.
Watchpoints
Interest coverage is -2.08x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.
Cash / debt stands at 1.2%, leaving limited liquidity buffer to monitor.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +53.5bn. Financing cash flow was negative +57.6bn.

Investment Takeaway
The business is heading the right way, but the current picture is still at partial confirmation — not yet a fully clean case. The positive points have clearly improved, showing the operating base is better than before. The brighter spot is operating efficiency, with net margin improving 84.5 pp. The next item to monitor is effective tax rate looks unusual, with effective tax rate at 0.1%. The main risk still sits in leverage and liquidity, with interest coverage at -2.08x.
Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 50.07% after expanding 84.5pp versus the same period last year.
Watchpoint: the effective tax rate looks unusual, so current net profit may not fully reflect underlying earnings quality.
Key risk: leverage and liquidity still require discipline, with interest coverage only at -2.08x.
