What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, SBV has not accelerated revenue sharply, but profitability is improving visibly — this marks a reversal from the difficult phase before. However, profit is significantly supported by non-core sources and operating cash flow is not yet positive — the improvement signal needs more time to confirm.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 -7.7% = -6.9% × 0.62 × 1.81
2026Q1 2.8% = 2.2% × 0.66 × 1.96

ROE rose from -7.7% to 2.8% — all three components improved, with leverage contributing the most.

Net margin: 2.2% +9.0pp Asset turnover: 0.66x +0.05x Leverage: 1.96x +0.15x

Is the profit sustainable?

Accounting profit is positive but operating cash flow has not caught up — needs more time to confirm.

very positive positive stable watch under pressure

What is driving the margin?

Net margin expanded to 2.16%, rising 9.0pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 7.2pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 1.4pp (with additional support from Other profit / Revenue rose 2.7pp and Net financial result / Revenue rose 0.0pp).

The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

Watchpoints

Non-core sources is supporting margin

Non-core sources accounts for 74.2% of PBT and lifted net margin by 2.7pp — separate the operating contribution from this source.

Is capital being used efficiently?

Return on capital rose, but cash cycle lengthened by 6.7 days — working capital needs watching.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

ROIC expanded to 0.45%, rising 3.1pp. That translates to 0.45 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both NOPAT margin rose 4.1pp and capital turnover rose 0.06x, with invested capital holding roughly steady — capital-return quality improved from both sides.

NOPAT margin led the improvement, but the ROIC level has not yet cleared typical cost of capital — margin needs to hold in coming periods rather than being a one-period rebound.

Watchpoints

ROIC remains low

ROIC is currently 0.45% — 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 0.45% +3.1pp
NOPAT Margin 0.56% +4.1pp
Capital Turnover 0.81x +0.06x
Average Invested Capital 707.8bn +8.4bn

Balance Sheet

ROIC is improving — the asset structure below shows how capital is being allocated. Capital structure is balanced — liabilities at 1.04x equity, net debt at 0.66x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 261.7bn, roughly 28.5% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 73.6bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and higher inventories.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables increased → lower CFO: −9.1bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −39.0bn
Payables decreased → lower CFO: −25.4bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 6.7 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 26.6 days, DSO fell 15.0 days, and DPO rose 4.9 days.

Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to slower inventory turnover — more capital is being tied up in inventory.

Watchpoints

Cash conversion cycle remains stretched

CCC stands at 290.6 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Inventory turnover is slowing

DIO increased by +26.6 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

Working Capital Efficiency

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables 128.7 days −15.0 days
Inventory 211.6 days +26.6 days
Payables 49.7 days +4.9 days
Cash Conversion Cycle 290.6 days +6.7 days

Is financial risk significant?

Leverage is safe but FCF is negative at 62.1bn due to capex of 21.9bn — an investment choice, not an urgent risk.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 0.66x and interest coverage only at 0.26x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 94.0% of total debt, cash equals 7.5% of debt, and total debt stands at 314.2bn.

Watchpoints

Interest coverage is thin

Interest coverage is 0.26x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Short-term refinancing pressure is meaningful

Short-term debt accounts for 94.0% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

Leverage and liquidity trend

Net Debt / Equity 0.66x +0.10x
Interest Coverage 0.26x +2.12x
Cash / Debt 7.5% +2.7pp
Short-term Debt / Total Debt 94.0% +1.8pp
CFO / NI -3.24x −2.78x

Cash Flow

Operating cash flow reached -13.7bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -12.9bn.

Post-investment cash flow was negative +26.6bn. Financing cash flow was positive +33.2bn.

CFO / net income was -3.24x.

After spending +21.9bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −62.1bn.

Cash Conversion

CFO TTM 40.1bn −56.6bn
Cash Capex 21.9bn −14.9bn
FCF TTM −62.1bn −41.7bn

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 operating efficiency, with net margin improving 9.0 pp. The next item to monitor is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is -68.2%. The main risk still sits in capital efficiency remains weak, with ROIC at 0.5%.

Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 2.16% after expanding 9.0pp versus the same period last year.

Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for -68.2% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at -3.24x.

Key risk: Capital efficiency remains weak.
