What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, PTS has not moved the needle on revenue, but profitability has edged up slightly — margins have been expanding consistently over multiple periods. What remains unclear is whether this improvement can widen without revenue momentum to back it.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 8.0% = 2.1% × 1.60 × 2.37
2026Q1 9.4% = 2.7% × 1.67 × 2.12

ROE rose from 8.0% to 9.4% — mainly driven by asset turnover, despite leverage moving in the opposite direction.

Net margin: 2.7% +0.6pp Asset turnover: 1.67x +0.07x Leverage: 2.12x -0.25x

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 2.65%, rising 0.6pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 1.6pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 1.7pp (in addition, Net financial result / Revenue rose 0.9pp added support while Other profit / Revenue fell 0.2pp remained a drag).

Most of the margin increase comes from non-core items — core operations have not kept pace, this is a margin expansion to watch carefully.

SG&A / Revenue 9.69% +1.7pp

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 6.54%, rising 2.0pp. That translates to 6.54 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both NOPAT margin rose 0.7pp and capital turnover rose 0.10x, with invested capital holding roughly steady — capital-return quality improved from both sides.

NOPAT margin expansion has lifted ROIC above the deposit-rate threshold but below typical cost of equity — more same-direction periods are needed to confirm a structural shift.

CAPITAL EFFICIENCY TREND

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

ROIC 6.54% +2.0pp
NOPAT Margin 2.67% +0.7pp
Capital Turnover 2.45x +0.10x
Average Invested Capital 152.7bn −8.2bn

Balance Sheet

ROIC is improving — the asset structure below shows how capital is being allocated. Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 1.14x equity, net debt at 0.43x equity.

Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 4.2bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and lower payables. Part of that drag was offset by lower inventories.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables increased → lower CFO: −5.3bn
Inventories decreased → higher CFO: +1.3bn
Payables decreased → lower CFO: −0.2bn

Working Capital Efficiency

The inventory build-up noted above is reflected in a longer cash cycle. Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 8.7 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 1.9 days, DSO rose 2.5 days, and DPO fell 4.4 days.

All 3 drivers are deteriorating — working capital is becoming more deeply tied up in the operating cycle.

Watchpoints

Cash conversion cycle is lengthening

CCC is up by +8.7 days, indicating weaker working-capital turnover versus the prior year.

Receivables collection is slowing

DSO increased by +2.5 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Working Capital Efficiency

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables 14.3 days +2.5 days
Inventory 23.4 days +1.9 days
Payables 33.0 days −4.4 days
Cash Conversion Cycle 4.7 days +8.7 days

Is financial risk significant?

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

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage is balanced for now, with net debt / equity at 0.43x and interest coverage at 3.11x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 69.0% of total debt, cash equals 21.0% of debt, and total debt stands at 60.0bn.

Watchpoints

Short-term refinancing pressure is meaningful

Short-term debt accounts for 69.0% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

Cash buffer is thin relative to debt

Cash / debt stands at 21.0%, leaving limited liquidity buffer to monitor.

Leverage and liquidity trend

Net Debt / Equity 0.43x −0.01x
Interest Coverage 3.11x +1.79x
Cash / Debt 21.0% −0.2pp
Short-term Debt / Total Debt 69.0% +11.2pp
CFO / NI 2.52x +0.80x

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Cash Flow

With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 26.9bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -16.1bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +10.8bn. Financing cash flow was negative +7.1bn.

CFO / net income was 2.52x.

After spending +23.2bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +1.8bn.

Cash Conversion

TTM Cash Conversion · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

CFO TTM 25.0bn +11.4bn
Cash Capex 23.2bn +6.6bn
FCF TTM +1.8bn +4.8bn

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 2.52x. Warning and risk signals are not yet decisive enough to shift the picture.

Improvement: earnings conversion looks more confirmed, with CFO / net income at 2.52x.
