Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 6.8% = 5.8% × 0.67 × 1.74
2026Q1 4.1% = 4.0% × 0.67 × 1.49

ROE fell from 6.8% to 4.1% — leverage weakened the most, though asset turnover still provided support.

Net margin: 4.0% -1.8pp Asset turnover: 0.67x +0.01x Leverage: 1.49x -0.25x

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 fell to 4.03%, losing 1.8pp. The main pressure is SG&A / Revenue rose 1.8pp, outweighing the improvement in Gross margin rose 0.2pp (with lingering pressure from Other profit / Revenue fell 0.6pp and Net financial result / Revenue fell 0.0pp).

Margin is under pressure from multiple sides — temporary and structural components need to be separated to properly assess the risk.

Profitability trend

Net Margin 4.03% −1.8pp
Gross Margin 14.25% +0.2pp
SG&A / Revenue 9.60% +1.8pp

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Is capital being used efficiently?

Capital efficiency is declining — check whether the drag is from margins or turnover.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

ROIC narrowed to 3.43%, falling 1.5pp. That translates to 3.43 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main pressure came from NOPAT margin narrowed 1.5pp, outweighing the movement in capital turnover; with invested capital holding roughly steady.

Pressure came from the margin side — core operations are weakening, not just a temporary asset-management issue.

Watchpoints

ROIC remains low

ROIC is currently 3.43% — below the typical cost-of-capital threshold; worth tracking whether upcoming periods can rise above this level.

CAPITAL EFFICIENCY TREND

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

ROIC 3.43% −1.5pp
NOPAT Margin 3.97% −1.5pp
Capital Turnover 0.86x −0.03x
Average Invested Capital 1,562.5bn −20.5bn

Balance Sheet

ROIC declined — the balance sheet shows how capital is being deployed. Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 0.28x equity, net debt at 0.07x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 272.2bn, roughly 15.1% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 307.9bn 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: +71.3bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −25.9bn
Payables increased → higher CFO: +262.6bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Cash conversion cycle improved by 0.0 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 3.9 days, DSO fell 1.5 days, and DPO fell 5.4 days.

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

Inventory 76.8 days −3.9 days
Payables 50.9 days −5.4 days
Cash Conversion Cycle 59.6 days −0.0 days

Is financial risk significant?

Financial risk is low — leverage is safe, both CFO and FCF are positive.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 0.07x and interest coverage only at 1.97x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 93.2% of total debt, cash equals 24.3% of debt, and total debt stands at 127.0bn.

Watchpoints

Interest coverage is thin

Interest coverage is 1.97x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Short-term refinancing pressure is meaningful

Short-term debt accounts for 93.2% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

Leverage and liquidity trend

Net Debt / Equity 0.07x −0.21x
Interest Coverage 1.97x −4.50x
Cash / Debt 24.3% +10.2pp

CFO / NI 10.78x +7.20x

Cash Flow

With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 361.3bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -388.3bn.

Post-investment cash flow was negative +26.9bn. Financing cash flow was negative +51.2bn.

CFO / net income was 10.78x.

After spending +14.1bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +276.4bn.

Cash Conversion

TTM Cash Conversion · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

CFO TTM 290.5bn +148.9bn
Cash Capex 14.1bn −126.0bn
FCF TTM +276.4bn +274.9bn

Investment Takeaway

The business is showing a few weaker signals, but the current magnitude is not yet clear enough to conclude that this is a broader weakening phase. The brighter spot is earnings conversion is confirmed, with CFO/NI at 10.78x. The main risk still sits in core profitability, with net margin down 1.8 pp.

Improvement: earnings conversion looks more confirmed, with CFO / net income at 10.78x.

Key risk: profitability remains under pressure, with trailing-12M net margin at 4.03% after a 1.8pp decline versus the same period last year.
