What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, SJ1 is maintaining revenue growth, but margins have not improved proportionally — profit is at an all-time high. However, operating cash flow is significantly negative relative to profit — this needs monitoring in coming periods.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 7.0% = 1.8% × 1.27 × 3.06
2026Q1 6.2% = 1.7% × 1.23 × 2.91

ROE fell from 7.0% to 6.2% — leverage weakened the most.

Net margin: 1.7% -0.1pp Asset turnover: 1.23x -0.04x Leverage: 2.91x -0.15x

Is the profit sustainable?

Margins narrowed but earnings quality remains clean — pressure is mainly operational.

very positive positive stable watch under pressure

What is driving the margin?

Net margin stands at 1.75%, broadly flat versus the same period. Supportive factors and pressure points are offsetting one another.

Margin is nearly flat but the underlying components are moving — this is a transitional phase, more time is needed to see the real trend.

Is capital being used efficiently?

Evaluate capital, asset, and working-capital efficiency.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

ROIC stands at 2.51%, broadly flat versus the same period. That translates to 2.51 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. NOPAT margin steady, but capital turnover fell 0.06x, while invested capital expanded strongly by 326bn — the two factors are offsetting each other, keeping overall ROIC nearly unchanged.

Overall ROIC is flat while internal components are moving — watch which side becomes dominant in coming periods.

Watchpoints

ROIC remains low

ROIC is currently 2.51% — 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 2.51% −0.1pp
NOPAT Margin 1.87% −0.0pp
Capital Turnover 1.34x −0.06x
Average Invested Capital 1,676.0bn +326.4bn

Balance Sheet

Leverage is elevated, requiring monitoring — liabilities at 2.18x equity, net debt at 1.82x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 413.8bn, roughly 20.8% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 58.0bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and higher inventories. Part of that drag was offset by higher payables.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables increased → lower CFO: −50.6bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −13.8bn
Payables increased → higher CFO: +6.5bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 0.4 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 8.1 days, DSO rose 9.1 days, and DPO rose 0.5 days.

Working capital cycle is flat — components are offsetting each other.

Watchpoints

Cash conversion cycle remains stretched

CCC stands at 95.2 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Receivables collection is slowing

DSO increased by +9.1 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Working Capital Efficiency

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables 42.7 days +9.1 days
Inventory 67.7 days −8.1 days
Payables 15.2 days +0.5 days
Cash Conversion Cycle 95.2 days +0.4 days

Is financial risk significant?

High leverage combined with negative operating cash flow — this area needs close monitoring.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 1.82x and interest coverage only at 0.86x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 85.9% of total debt, cash equals 2.5% of debt, and total debt stands at 1,179.1bn.

Watchpoints

Net leverage is elevated

Net debt / equity stands at 1.82x, increasing balance-sheet pressure.

Interest coverage is thin

Interest coverage is 0.86x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Leverage and liquidity trend

Interest Coverage 0.86x −0.02x
Cash / Debt 2.5% +0.7pp
Short-term Debt / Total Debt 85.9% −0.9pp
CFO / NI -0.49x +0.91x

Cash Flow

High leverage combined with cash flow below reveals the actual liquidity pressure. Operating cash flow reached -209.8bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -253.5bn.

Post-investment cash flow was negative +463.3bn. Financing cash flow was positive +454.2bn.

CFO / net income was -0.49x.

After spending +55.1bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −73.6bn.

Cash Conversion

TTM Cash Conversion · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

CFO TTM 18.4bn +29.6bn
Cash Capex 55.1bn −31.9bn
FCF TTM −73.6bn +61.5bn

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 capital efficiency remains weak remaining the main constraint, with ROIC at 2.5%. The next watchpoint is effective tax rate looks unusual, with effective tax rate at 30.8%. The main offsetting support comes from cash generation.

Improvement: cash generation is recovering, with trailing-12M FCF improving by 61.5bn versus the same period last year.

Watchpoint: the effective tax rate looks unusual, so current net profit may not fully reflect underlying earnings quality.

Key risk: Capital efficiency remains weak.
