What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, TCK is holding revenue at an acceptable level, but margins are eroding visibly — the growth momentum has held across consecutive periods. More notably, a significant portion of profit is supported by non-core sources, further affecting earnings quality.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 -61.9% = 13.9% × 0.34 × -12.99
2026Q1 -32.4% = 2.8% × 0.42 × -27.27

ROE rose from -61.9% to -32.4% — mainly driven by asset turnover, despite net margin and leverage moving in the opposite direction.

Net margin: 2.8% -11.1pp Asset turnover: 0.42x +0.08x Leverage: -27.27x -14.28x

Is the profit sustainable?

Margins are under pressure while earnings still rely significantly on non-core sources.

very positive positive stable watch under pressure

What is driving the margin?

Net margin fell to 2.84%, losing 11.1pp. The main pressure comes from SG&A / Revenue rose 6.9pp and Gross margin fell 2.9pp (in addition, Other profit / Revenue rose 3.5pp added support while Net financial result / Revenue fell 4.1pp remained a drag).

The pressure comes from core operations — this is a concerning type of decline, not a one-off movement.

Profitability trend

Net Margin 2.84% −11.1pp
Gross Margin 19.33% −2.9pp
SG&A / Revenue 12.68% +6.9pp
Non-core / Revenue -3.02% −0.7pp

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Watchpoints

Financial result share remains high

Even though contribution decreased by 0.7pp, financial result still accounts for 36.4% of PBT — earnings durability should be monitored in coming periods.

Is capital being used efficiently?

Capital efficiency is declining — check whether the drag is from margins or turnover.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

ROIC fell to 14.05%, losing 45.3pp. That translates to 14.05 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main pressure came from NOPAT margin narrowed 14.8pp, outweighing the movement in capital turnover; with invested capital holding roughly steady.

Pressure came from the margin side — core operations are weakening, not just a temporary asset-management issue.

CAPITAL EFFICIENCY TREND

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

ROIC 14.05% −45.3pp
NOPAT Margin 3.88% −14.8pp
Capital Turnover 3.62x +0.44x
Average Invested Capital 96.8bn +1.4bn

Balance Sheet

ROIC declined — the balance sheet shows how capital is being deployed. Balance sheet is exceptionally sound — liabilities at -27.06x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 5.14x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 326.2bn, roughly 38.7% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 4.5bn of cash, mainly thanks to lower receivables and lower inventories. Pressure from lower payables only partly offset that benefit.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables decreased → higher CFO: +26.1bn
Inventories decreased → higher CFO: +11.0bn
Payables decreased → lower CFO: −32.6bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 156.0 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 162.0 days, DSO fell 49.2 days, and DPO fell 55.1 days.

Improvement comes mainly from faster inventory turnover — watch whether this trend persists in coming periods.

Watchpoints

Cash conversion cycle remains stretched

CCC stands at 524.5 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Working Capital Efficiency

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables 206.2 days −49.2 days
Inventory 436.8 days −162.0 days
Payables 118.6 days −55.1 days
Cash Conversion Cycle 524.5 days −156.0 days

Is financial risk significant?

Financial risk is low — the company has net cash and CFO reached 10.9bn.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage is balanced for now, with net debt / equity at -5.14x and interest coverage at 2.03x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 70.8% of total debt, cash equals 8.2% of debt, and total debt stands at 129.4bn.

Watchpoints

Short-term refinancing pressure is meaningful

Short-term debt accounts for 70.8% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

Cash buffer is thin relative to debt

Cash / debt stands at 8.2%, leaving limited liquidity buffer to monitor.

Leverage and liquidity trend

Net Debt / Equity -5.14x −1.59x
Interest Coverage 2.03x −2.61x
Cash / Debt 8.2% +1.9pp
Short-term Debt / Total Debt 70.8% +3.0pp
CFO / NI 1.38x +0.56x

Cash Flow

With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 10.9bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -4.5bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +6.3bn. Financing cash flow was positive +2.5bn.

CFO / net income was 1.38x.

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 margins remain under pressure remaining the main constraint, with net margin down 11.1 pp. The next watchpoint is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is -47.0%.

Watchpoint: cash flow is currently keeping pace with accounting earnings, with CFO / net income at 1.38x. Even so, net financial result still accounts for -47.0% of PBT, so the earnings mix still needs monitoring.

Key risk: profitability remains under pressure, with trailing-12M net margin at 2.84% after a 11.1pp decline versus the same period last year.
