What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, PBP is showing a few mildly negative signals versus the same period, though nothing alarming at current levels — profit is at an all-time high. More notably, operating cash flow is significantly negative relative to profit — this is pressure that needs close monitoring.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE fell from 13.2% to 10.9% — asset turnover weakened the most, though net margin still provided support.
Is the profit sustainable?
Accounting profit is positive but operating cash flow has not caught up — needs more time to confirm.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin edged up to 2.44%, rising 0.5pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 2.1pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 1.6pp (with additional support from Net financial result / Revenue rose 0.1pp).
The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital efficiency is declining — check whether the drag is from margins or turnover.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC fell to 11.57%, losing 15.3pp. That translates to 11.57 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main pressure came from capital turnover fell 9.14x — capital is being absorbed faster than revenue is being generated; with invested capital holding roughly steady.
Pressure came from turnover — added capital has not been absorbed quickly enough, a typical investment-cycle dynamic.

Balance Sheet
ROIC declined — the balance sheet shows how capital is being deployed. Balance sheet is exceptionally sound — liabilities at 0.88x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.20x equity.
Inventory ended the period at 45.4bn, roughly 34.4% of total assets.
Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 49.6bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and higher inventories.
Working Capital Drivers
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Working Capital Efficiency
Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 29.8 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 33.5 days, DSO rose 0.9 days, and DPO rose 4.6 days.
Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to slower inventory turnover — more capital is being tied up in inventory.
Watchpoints
CCC is up by +29.8 days, indicating weaker working-capital turnover versus the prior year.
DSO increased by +0.9 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 30.3% of total debt, cash equals 207.5% of debt, and total debt stands at 13.6bn.

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 earnings conversion is confirmed, with CFO/NI at -4.59x. The next item to monitor is cash generation still needs confirmation.
Improvement: earnings conversion looks more confirmed, with CFO / net income at -4.59x.
Watchpoint: Cash generation still needs confirmation.
