What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, HAF posted a very sharp profit drop versus the same period, showing that pressure has clearly fed through to the bottom line — margins have been compressing consistently over multiple periods. More notably, a significant portion of profit is supported by non-core sources, further affecting earnings quality.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 -11.0% = -18.3% × 0.31 × 1.91
2026Q1 -23.6% = -96.5% × 0.11 × 2.25

ROE fell from -11.0% to -23.6% — net margin weakened the most, though leverage still provided support.

Net margin: -96.5% -78.1pp Asset turnover: 0.11x -0.21x Leverage: 2.25x +0.33x

Is the profit sustainable?

Margins are under pressure while earnings still rely significantly on non-core sources.

very positive positive stable watch under pressure

What is driving the margin?

Net margin fell to -96.45%, losing 78.1pp. The main pressure is SG&A / Revenue rose 35.0pp, outweighing the improvement in Gross margin rose 17.0pp (with lingering pressure from Other profit / Revenue fell 45.3pp and Net financial result / Revenue fell 14.1pp).

The pressure comes from non-core items while core operations hold their rhythm — margin has a basis to recover once this factor passes.

Watchpoints

Other income share remains high

Even though contribution decreased by 59.4pp, other income still accounts for 68.4% of PBT — earnings durability should be monitored in coming periods.

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. Capital structure is balanced — liabilities at 1.46x equity, net debt at 0.81x equity.

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 6.3bn of cash, mainly thanks to higher payables. Pressure from higher receivables only partly offset that benefit.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables increased → lower CFO: −3.4bn
Inventories were broadly stable → neutral CFO:
Payables increased → higher CFO: +9.7bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 405.3 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 6.2 days, DSO rose 21.2 days, and DPO rose 432.7 days.

Extended payment timing is the main driver — consider whether this trades off supplier relationships.

Watchpoints

Receivables collection is slowing

DSO increased by +21.2 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Inventory turnover is slowing

DIO increased by +6.2 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

Payables 550.8 days +432.7 days
Cash Conversion Cycle -502.0 days −405.3 days

Is financial risk significant?

Leverage is safe but FCF is negative at 28.9bn due to capex of 20.5bn — an investment choice, not an urgent risk.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 0.81x and interest coverage only at -1.58x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 4.9% of debt, and total debt stands at 89.6bn.

Watchpoints

Interest coverage is thin

Interest coverage is -1.58x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Short-term refinancing pressure is meaningful

Short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

Net Debt / Equity 0.81x
Interest Coverage -1.58x +0.29x

Cash Flow

Operating cash flow reached -18.7bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -25.9bn.

Post-investment cash flow was negative +44.6bn. Financing cash flow was positive +14.3bn.

CFO / net income was 0.31x.

After spending +20.5bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −28.9bn.

Investment Takeaway

The business is under real pressure, but the current picture has not turned broadly adverse. A notable area has clearly weakened, making the near-term outlook hard to call bright; even so, other parts of the business are still holding up, with margins remain under pressure remaining the main constraint, with net margin down 78.1 pp. The next watchpoint is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is 21.1%.

Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 21.1% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at 0.31x.

Key risk: profitability remains under pressure, with trailing-12M net margin at -96.45% after a 78.1pp decline versus the same period last year.
