What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, NAV is losing revenue quickly, though margins have not been hit proportionally yet — 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 17.9% = 14.9% × 1.09 × 1.10
2026Q1 13.6% = 13.8% × 0.88 × 1.12

ROE fell from 17.9% to 13.6% — asset turnover weakened the most, though leverage still provided support.

Net margin: 13.8% -1.1pp Asset turnover: 0.88x -0.21x Leverage: 1.12x +0.02x

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 narrowed to 13.83%, falling 1.1pp. The main pressure comes from SG&A / Revenue rose 1.9pp and Gross margin fell 1.0pp (with additional support from Net financial result / Revenue rose 1.0pp and Other profit / Revenue rose 0.3pp).

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

Profitability trend

Net Margin 13.83% −1.1pp
Gross Margin 13.60% −1.0pp
SG&A / Revenue 9.26% +1.9pp
Non-core / Revenue 10.86% +1.3pp

Watchpoints

Financial result is supporting margin

Financial result accounts for 71.4% of PBT and lifted net margin by 1.3pp — separate the operating contribution from this source.

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 0.05x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.01x equity.

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 19.4bn of cash, mainly thanks to lower receivables and lower inventories. Pressure from lower payables only partly offset that benefit.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables decreased → higher CFO: +13.2bn
Inventories decreased → higher CFO: +7.3bn
Payables decreased → lower CFO: −1.0bn

Working Capital Efficiency

The inventory build-up noted above is reflected in a longer cash cycle. Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 46.8 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 4.1 days, DSO rose 45.4 days, and DPO rose 2.7 days.

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

Watchpoints

Cash conversion cycle remains stretched

CCC stands at 181.9 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Receivables collection is slowing

DSO increased by +45.4 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Cash Conversion Cycle 181.9 days +46.8 days

Is financial risk significant?

Financial risk is low — the company has net cash and CFO reached 25.5bn.

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 25.5bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -16.8bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +8.7bn. Financing cash flow was negative +22.4bn.

CFO / net income was 1.57x.

After spending +4.3bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +18.1bn.

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 working capital is tied up too long in the operating cycle remaining the main constraint, with CCC extended to 182 days. The next watchpoint is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is 68.5%. The main offsetting support comes from balance-sheet flexibility, with net cash/equity at about -0.01x.

Improvement: the balance sheet remains flexible, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.01x of equity.

Watchpoint: cash flow is currently keeping pace with accounting earnings, with CFO / net income at 1.57x. Even so, net financial result still accounts for 68.5% of PBT, so the earnings mix still needs monitoring.

Key risk: working capital remains tied up for too long, with cash cycle at 181.9 days.
