What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, HTV has not accelerated revenue, but profitability is improving more visibly — earnings have been recovering gradually over multiple periods. However, a significant portion of profit is supported by non-core sources, making the picture not entirely clear.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 3.9% = 4.6% × 0.74 × 1.16
2026Q1 5.2% = 6.3% × 0.73 × 1.13

ROE rose from 3.9% to 5.2% — mainly driven by net margin, despite asset turnover and leverage moving in the opposite direction.

Net margin: 6.3% +1.7pp Asset turnover: 0.73x -0.00x Leverage: 1.13x -0.03x

Is the profit sustainable?

Margins improved (+1.7pp), but earnings still rely significantly on non-core sources — warrants closer scrutiny.

What is driving the margin?

Net margin expanded to 6.34%, rising 1.7pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 5.4pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 0.3pp (in addition, Net financial result / Revenue rose 0.4pp added support while Other profit / Revenue fell 3.3pp remained a drag).

Margin improves from both core operations and non-core items — the core foundation is positive, but the sustainability of non-core contributions needs monitoring.

Watchpoints

Financial result share remains high

Even though contribution decreased by 2.9pp, financial result still accounts for 48.4% 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. Balance sheet is exceptionally sound — liabilities at 0.14x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.08x equity.

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 9.1bn of cash, mainly thanks to lower receivables. Pressure from higher inventories and lower payables only partly offset that benefit.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables decreased → higher CFO: +17.8bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −1.0bn
Payables decreased → lower CFO: −7.7bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 5.4 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 1.8 days, DSO fell 16.1 days, and DPO fell 8.9 days.

Improvement comes mainly from faster receivables collection — reflects the quality of receivables management.

Watchpoints

Cash conversion cycle remains stretched

CCC stands at 109.5 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Inventory turnover is slowing

DIO increased by +1.8 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

Working Capital Efficiency

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables 142.3 days −16.1 days
Inventory 5.0 days +1.8 days
Payables 37.8 days −8.9 days
Cash Conversion Cycle 109.5 days −5.4 days

Is financial risk significant?

Financial risk is low — the company has net cash and CFO reached 14.7bn.

Leverage & Liquidity

Track net leverage, interest coverage, and the liquidity buffer on the balance sheet.

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 14.7bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -14.2bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +0.5bn. Financing cash flow was negative +3.9bn.

CFO / net income was 1.42x.

After spending +0.5bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +24.4bn.

Investment Takeaway

The business is showing a brighter picture at the headline-earnings level, but what deserves a closer look right now is the quality of that improvement. Margins and net profit may look better, but if financial income, other income, or unusually low taxes contribute too much, this is not yet a clean enough growth base to extrapolate further. The main bright spot is operating efficiency, with net margin improving 1.7 pp. Even so, the earnings mix still warrants monitoring in upcoming periods, when non-core contribution is 48.1%.

Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 6.34% after expanding 1.7pp versus the same period last year.

Watchpoint: cash flow is currently keeping pace with accounting earnings, with CFO / net income at 1.42x. Even so, net financial result still accounts for 48.1% of PBT, so the earnings mix still needs monitoring.
