What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, DID is growing strongly on the back of scale expansion, while margins have only improved slightly — earnings have been recovering gradually over multiple periods. More notably, profit relies heavily on non-core sources while operating cash flow is negative — these two factors together suggest earnings quality needs cautious evaluation.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 0.8% = 0.5% × 0.79 × 2.12
2026Q1 1.5% = 0.7% × 1.04 × 1.98

ROE rose from 0.8% to 1.5% — mainly driven by asset turnover, despite leverage moving in the opposite direction.

Net margin: 0.7% +0.3pp Asset turnover: 1.04x +0.25x Leverage: 1.98x -0.14x

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 stands at 0.71%, 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.

Watchpoints

Other income is supporting margin

Other income accounts for 187.6% of PBT and lifted net margin by 1.8pp — separate the operating contribution from this source.

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 above should be read with industry context — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 0.50x equity, net debt at 0.33x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 42.7bn, roughly 15.2% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 0.0bn of cash.

Working Capital Efficiency

Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 7.6 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 7.3 days, DSO fell 17.3 days, and DPO fell 32.2 days.

Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to shorter payment timing — may reflect pressure from suppliers.

Watchpoints

Cash conversion cycle is lengthening

CCC is up by +7.6 days, indicating weaker working-capital turnover versus the prior year.

Is financial risk significant?

Leverage is safe but FCF is negative at 0.4bn due to capex of 0.3bn — an investment choice, not an urgent risk.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 0.33x and interest coverage only at -0.60x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 99.4% of total debt, cash equals 1.0% of debt, and total debt stands at 62.4bn.

Watchpoints

Interest coverage is thin

Interest coverage is -0.60x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Short-term refinancing pressure is meaningful

Short-term debt accounts for 99.4% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

Interest Coverage -0.60x −1.01x

Cash Flow

With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 0.5bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of 4.8bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +5.3bn. Financing cash flow was negative +5.5bn.

CFO / net income was -0.06x.

After spending +0.3bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −0.4bn.

Cash Conversion

TTM Cash Conversion · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

CFO TTM 0.2bn +1.9bn
Cash Capex 0.3bn −7.9bn
FCF TTM −0.4bn +9.9bn

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 cash generation. The next item to monitor is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is -145.8%. The main risk still sits in leverage and liquidity, with interest coverage at -0.60x.

Improvement: cash generation is recovering, with trailing-12M FCF improving by 9.9bn versus the same period last year.

Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for -145.8% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at -0.06x.

Key risk: leverage and liquidity still require discipline, with interest coverage only at -0.60x.
