What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, FHS posted slightly higher revenue but margins narrowed — the two forces offset each other, leaving the overall picture largely unchanged — the growth momentum has held across consecutive periods. What remains unclear is which side will dominate in coming periods.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 25.9% = 1.4% × 2.92 × 6.20
2026Q1 25.0% = 1.4% × 2.82 × 6.33

ROE fell from 25.9% to 25.0% — asset turnover weakened the most, though leverage still provided support.

Net margin: 1.4% -0.0pp Asset turnover: 2.82x -0.10x Leverage: 6.33x +0.13x

Is the profit sustainable?

Margins narrowed but earnings quality remains clean — pressure is mainly operational.

very positive positive stable watch under pressure

What is driving the margin?

Net margin stands at 1.40%, 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.

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.

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 5.70x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.18x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 867.3bn, roughly 54.4% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 73.1bn of cash, mainly thanks to lower receivables and higher payables. Pressure from higher inventories only partly offset that benefit.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables decreased → higher CFO: +11.3bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −142.3bn
Payables increased → higher CFO: +204.2bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 0.0 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 7.1 days, DSO fell 0.6 days, and DPO rose 6.5 days.

Working capital cycle is flat — components are offsetting each other.

Watchpoints

Cash conversion cycle is lengthening

CCC is up by +0.0 days, indicating weaker working-capital turnover versus the prior year.

Inventory turnover is slowing

DIO increased by +7.1 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

Receivables 7.1 days −0.6 days
Inventory 98.1 days +7.1 days
Payables 135.2 days +6.5 days
Cash Conversion Cycle -30.0 days +0.0 days

Is financial risk significant?

Financial risk is low — the company has net cash and CFO reached 44.7bn.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage looks fairly comfortable, with net debt / equity at -0.18x and interest coverage at 139.28x.

Debt maturity and the cash buffer remain the two key areas to monitor.

Some leverage signals are missing, so the current read should be treated as contextual.

Cash Flow

With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 44.7bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -7.5bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +37.2bn. Financing cash flow was negative +26.1bn.

CFO / net income was 1.70x.

After spending +2.5bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +101.9bn.

Investment Takeaway

The business is balanced but not yet fully stable — some components are moving the right way while others still need monitoring. This is a state to keep watching, with not enough signal to tilt the thesis either way. The brighter spot is balance-sheet flexibility, with net cash/equity at about -0.18x. The next item to monitor is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is 26.6%.

Improvement: the balance sheet remains flexible, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.18x of equity.

Watchpoint: cash flow is currently keeping pace with accounting earnings, with CFO / net income at 1.70x. Even so, net financial result still accounts for 26.6% of PBT, so the earnings mix still needs monitoring.
