What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, DHB has not accelerated revenue sharply, but profitability is improving visibly — earnings have been recovering gradually over multiple periods. Profit growth is driven mainly by better operations rather than scale expansion — a foundation that tends to be more durable.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 -2.5% = -0.4% × 0.73 × 9.74
2026Q1 29.8% = 4.9% × 0.79 × 7.72

ROE rose from -2.5% to 29.8% — mainly driven by asset turnover, despite leverage moving in the opposite direction.

Net margin: 4.9% +5.2pp Asset turnover: 0.79x +0.06x Leverage: 7.72x -2.01x

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 4.85%, rising 5.2pp. The main driver is Gross margin rose 6.8pp and SG&A / Revenue fell 0.5pp, moving in line with the stronger net margin (in addition, Net financial result / Revenue rose 1.3pp added support while Other profit / Revenue fell 2.1pp remained a drag).

The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

Is capital being used efficiently?

Capital efficiency should be read in industry context — ROIC may fluctuate with business specifics.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

Track how much operating profit the business generates on invested capital.

Industry characteristics make ROIC cyclical — this is a reference signal and should be read with the business context.

ROIC
NOPAT Margin
Capital Turnover 1.70x +0.24x
Average Invested Capital 2,699.6bn −458.9bn

Balance Sheet

ROIC above should be read with industry context — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Leverage is very high, with clear pressure on the capital structure — liabilities at 8.16x equity, net debt at 1.89x equity.

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 67.1bn of cash, mainly thanks to higher payables. Pressure from higher receivables and higher inventories only partly offset that benefit.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables increased → lower CFO: −67.3bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −15.7bn
Payables increased → higher CFO: +150.1bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 9.3 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 7.4 days, DSO rose 0.1 days, and DPO rose 2.0 days.

Improvement comes mainly from faster inventory turnover — watch whether this trend persists in coming periods.

Watchpoints

Receivables collection is slowing

DSO increased by +0.1 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Is financial risk significant?

Check leverage, liquidity, and cash-flow conversion.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 1.89x and interest coverage only at 1.69x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 14.7% of total debt, cash equals 17.7% of debt, and total debt stands at 1,968.1bn.

Watchpoints

Net leverage is elevated

Net debt / equity stands at 1.89x, increasing balance-sheet pressure.

Interest coverage is thin

Interest coverage is 1.69x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Net Debt / Equity 1.89x −1.72x
Interest Coverage 1.69x +1.93x
Cash / Debt 17.7% +2.7pp

CFO / NI 4.08x +35.82x

Cash Flow

Leverage needs watching — cash flow below shows the ability to service debt from operations. Operating cash flow reached 590.9bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -30.6bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +560.3bn. Financing cash flow was negative +545.2bn.

CFO / net income was 4.08x.

After spending +14.6bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +891.0bn.

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 5.2 pp. The next item to monitor is capital efficiency. The main risk still sits in leverage and liquidity, with interest coverage at 1.69x.

Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 4.85% after expanding 5.2pp versus the same period last year.

Watchpoint: Capital efficiency needs cycle context.

Key risk: leverage and liquidity still require discipline, with interest coverage only at 1.69x.
