Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

What is driving the margin?

Net margin expanded to 12.00%, rising 3.4pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 4.8pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 1.1pp (with additional support from Net financial result / Revenue rose 0.4pp and Other profit / Revenue rose 0.2pp).

Is capital being used efficiently?

Return on capital rose, but cash cycle lengthened by 8.7 days — working capital needs watching.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

ROIC expanded to 23.95%, rising 4.2pp. That translates to 23.95 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main driver is NOPAT margin rose 3.2pp, with capital turnover fell 0.24x; while invested capital rose by 305bn.

Capital efficiency improved through NOPAT margin — this is a quality-led improvement when operating profit leads.

Balance Sheet

Inventory ended the period at 546.1bn, roughly 11.7% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 263.4bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and higher inventories.

Working Capital Drivers

Receivables increased → lower CFO: −73.5bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −40.0bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 8.7 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 4.1 days, DSO rose 5.4 days, and DPO rose 0.7 days.

Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to slower receivables collection — receivables quality needs monitoring.

CCC stands at 91.2 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Receivables collection is slowing

DSO increased by +5.4 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

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 3.4 pp. The next item to monitor is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is 16.7%.

Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 12.00% after expanding 3.4pp versus the same period last year.

Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 16.7% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at 0.50x.
