What is driving the margin?

Net margin expanded to 4.72%, rising 2.0pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 3.1pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 1.5pp (with additional support from Net financial result / Revenue rose 0.6pp and Other profit / Revenue rose 0.1pp).

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

Investment Takeaway

The positive points have clearly improved, showing the operating base is better than before. The brighter spot is operating efficiency, with net margin improving 2.0 pp. The next item to monitor is capital efficiency. The main risk still sits in working capital is tied up too long in the operating cycle, with CCC extended to 204 days.

Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 4.72% after expanding 2.0pp versus the same period last year.

Watchpoint: Capital efficiency needs cycle context.

Key risk: working capital remains tied up for too long, with cash cycle at 204.3 days.
