What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, STG has not accelerated revenue sharply, but profitability is improving visibly — profit is at an all-time high. Profit growth is driven mainly by better operations rather than scale expansion — a foundation that tends to be more durable.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE rose from 8.8% to 13.0% — mainly driven by leverage, despite asset turnover moving in the opposite direction.
Is the profit sustainable?
Margins are improving and earnings quality is solid — a durable foundation for ROE.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin expanded to 12.51%, rising 4.2pp. The main driver is Gross margin rose 4.0pp and SG&A / Revenue fell 0.2pp, moving in line with the stronger net margin (with lingering pressure from Net financial result / Revenue fell 0.5pp and Other profit / Revenue fell 0.3pp).
The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

Is capital being used efficiently?
Return on capital rose, but cash cycle lengthened by 6.6 days — working capital needs watching.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC expanded to 13.23%, rising 3.3pp. That translates to 13.23 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main driver is NOPAT margin rose 4.4pp, with capital turnover fell 0.18x; while invested capital expanded strongly by 508bn.
Capital efficiency improved through NOPAT margin — this is a quality-led improvement when operating profit leads.

Balance Sheet
ROIC is improving — the asset structure below shows how capital is being allocated. Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 0.35x equity, net debt at 0.02x equity.
Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 305.5bn 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
Working Capital Efficiency
Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 6.6 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 1.5 days, DSO rose 10.9 days, and DPO rose 2.7 days.
Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to slower receivables collection — receivables quality needs monitoring.
Watchpoints
CCC is up by +6.6 days, indicating weaker working-capital turnover versus the prior year.
DSO increased by +10.9 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Is financial risk significant?
Leverage is safe but FCF is negative at 266.4bn due to capex of 355.4bn — an investment choice, not an urgent risk.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage looks fairly comfortable, with net debt / equity at 0.02x and interest coverage at 12.31x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 20.1% of total debt, cash equals 88.1% of debt, and total debt stands at 545.9bn.

Cash Flow
With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 189.3bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -441.0bn.
Post-investment cash flow was negative +251.8bn. Financing cash flow was positive +206.5bn.
CFO / net income was 0.28x.
After spending +355.4bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −266.4bn.

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 operating efficiency, with net margin improving 4.2 pp. The main risk still sits in self-funded cash generation remains weak.
Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 12.51% after expanding 4.2pp versus the same period last year.
Key risk: self-funded cash generation remains weak, with trailing-12M FCF still at 266.4bn.
