On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, PHP is improving on both revenue and margins, though the magnitude is still moderate — profit is at an all-time high. This signal only becomes convincing if the improvement continues through the next few periods.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 15.8% = 37.6% × 0.33 × 1.26
2026Q1 16.2% = 38.1% × 0.31 × 1.35

ROE is broadly flat at 16.2% — the components are offsetting one another.

Net margin: 38.1% +0.5pp Asset turnover: 0.31x -0.02x Leverage: 1.35x +0.09x

Is the profit sustainable?

Margins are improving and earnings quality is solid — a durable foundation for ROE.

very positive positive stable watch under pressure

What is driving the margin?

Net margin edged up to 38.12%, rising 0.5pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 10.1pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 0.3pp (with lingering pressure from Other profit / Revenue fell 7.6pp and Net financial result / Revenue fell 2.0pp).

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

Gross Margin 48.91% +10.1pp
SG&A / Revenue 9.78% +0.3pp

Is capital being used efficiently?

Return on capital rose, but cash cycle lengthened by 5.6 days — working capital needs watching.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

ROIC edged up to 13.17%, rising 1.1pp. That translates to 13.17 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main driver is NOPAT margin rose 6.7pp, with capital turnover broadly stable; while invested capital expanded strongly by 1,596bn.

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

CAPITAL EFFICIENCY TREND

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

ROIC 13.17% +1.1pp
NOPAT Margin 36.52% +6.7pp
Capital Turnover 0.36x −0.04x
Average Invested Capital 8,034.3bn +1,595.9bn

Balance Sheet

ROIC is improving — the asset structure below shows how capital is being allocated. Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 0.45x equity, net debt at 0.24x equity.

Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 281.7bn of cash, mainly because of higher inventories and lower payables. Part of that drag was offset by lower receivables.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables decreased → higher CFO: +100.7bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −9.3bn
Payables decreased → lower CFO: −373.1bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 5.6 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 4.4 days, DSO fell 3.9 days, and DPO fell 5.0 days.

Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to shorter payment timing — may reflect pressure from suppliers.

Watchpoints

Cash conversion cycle is lengthening

CCC is up by +5.6 days, indicating weaker working-capital turnover versus the prior year.

Inventory turnover is slowing

DIO increased by +4.4 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

Working Capital Efficiency

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables 36.2 days −3.9 days
Inventory 30.7 days +4.4 days
Payables 71.7 days −5.0 days
Cash Conversion Cycle -4.9 days +5.6 days

Is financial risk significant?

Leverage is safe but FCF is negative at 1,560.1bn due to capex of 2,312.5bn — an investment choice, not an urgent risk.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage looks fairly comfortable, with net debt / equity at 0.24x and interest coverage at 24.85x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 0.6% of total debt, cash equals 14.6% of debt, and total debt stands at 1,973.4bn.

Watchpoints

Cash buffer is thin relative to debt

Cash / debt stands at 14.6%, leaving limited liquidity buffer to monitor.

Leverage and liquidity trend

Net Debt / Equity 0.24x +0.12x
Interest Coverage 24.85x −21.50x
Cash / Debt 14.6% −14.8pp
Short-term Debt / Total Debt 0.6% −1.9pp
CFO / NI 0.80x −0.10x

Cash Flow

With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 596.4bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -2,769.0bn.

Post-investment cash flow was negative +2,172.5bn. Financing cash flow was positive +2,068.8bn.

CFO / net income was 0.80x.

After spending +2,312.5bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −1,560.1bn.

Cash Conversion

TTM Cash Conversion · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

CFO TTM 752.4bn +26.6bn
Cash Capex 2,312.5bn +713.8bn
FCF TTM −1,560.1bn −687.2bn

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 0.80x. The main risk still sits in self-funded cash generation remains weak.

Improvement: earnings conversion looks more confirmed, with CFO / net income at 0.80x.

Key risk: self-funded cash generation remains weak, with trailing-12M FCF still at 1,560.1bn.
