On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, TKU posted a very sharp profit drop versus the same period, showing that pressure has clearly fed through to the bottom line. The key watch now is how long the business needs to stabilize its profit base.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 11.2% = 7.1% × 1.04 × 1.52
2026Q1 4.0% = 3.6% × 0.68 × 1.60

ROE fell from 11.2% to 4.0% — asset turnover weakened the most, though leverage still provided support.

Net margin: 3.6% -3.5pp Asset turnover: 0.68x -0.36x Leverage: 1.60x +0.08x

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 fell to 3.62%, losing 3.5pp. The main pressure comes from Gross margin fell 4.0pp and SG&A / Revenue rose 2.1pp (in addition, Net financial result / Revenue rose 1.1pp added support while Other profit / Revenue fell 0.6pp remained a drag).

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

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 5.07%, losing 6.0pp. That translates to 5.07 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both NOPAT margin narrowed 3.1pp and capital turnover fell 0.32x, with invested capital holding roughly steady — pressure came from both operational efficiency and asset efficiency.

Both margin and turnover weakened — this is a broad-based decline, and cyclical versus structural components need to be separated.

CAPITAL EFFICIENCY TREND

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

ROIC 5.07% −6.0pp
NOPAT Margin 4.21% −3.1pp
Capital Turnover 1.21x −0.32x
Average Invested Capital 508.7bn −44.4bn

Balance Sheet

ROIC declined — the balance sheet shows how capital is being deployed. Balance sheet is exceptionally sound — liabilities at 0.62x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.14x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 300.3bn, roughly 33.5% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 63.6bn of cash, mainly thanks to lower inventories and higher payables. Pressure from higher receivables only partly offset that benefit.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables increased → lower CFO: −1.8bn
Inventories decreased → higher CFO: +47.6bn
Payables increased → higher CFO: +17.8bn

Working Capital Efficiency

The inventory build-up noted above is reflected in a longer cash cycle. Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 28.3 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 14.9 days, DSO rose 14.8 days, and DPO rose 1.5 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 185.0 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Receivables collection is slowing

DSO increased by +14.8 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Working Capital Efficiency

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables 32.5 days +14.8 days
Inventory 168.8 days +14.9 days
Payables 16.4 days +1.5 days
Cash Conversion Cycle 185.0 days +28.3 days

Is financial risk significant?

Financial risk is low — the company has net cash and CFO reached 72.4bn.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage is balanced for now, with net debt / equity at -0.14x and interest coverage at 2.68x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 136.8% of debt, and total debt stands at 207.3bn.

Watchpoints

Short-term refinancing pressure is meaningful

Short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

Net Debt / Equity -0.14x −0.08x
Interest Coverage 2.68x −2.06x

Cash Flow

With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 72.4bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -18.6bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +53.8bn. Financing cash flow was negative +143.3bn.

CFO / net income was 4.74x.

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 next item to monitor is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is 16.0%. The main risk still sits in core profitability, with net margin down 3.5 pp.

Watchpoint: cash flow is currently keeping pace with accounting earnings, with CFO / net income at 4.74x. Even so, net financial result still accounts for 16.0% of PBT, so the earnings mix still needs monitoring.

Key risk: profitability remains under pressure, with trailing-12M net margin at 3.62% after a 3.5pp decline versus the same period last year.
