What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, VCP is improving on both revenue and margins, suggesting current growth is backed by both scale and operating efficiency — profit is at an all-time high. The next test will be whether this pace holds as the comparison base gets tougher.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE rose from 18.8% to 22.4% — mainly driven by asset turnover, despite leverage 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 21.94%, rising 2.6pp. Core operating signals are improving as SG&A / Revenue fell 1.8pp are enough to offset pressure from Gross margin fell 1.1pp (in addition, Net financial result / Revenue rose 3.2pp added support while Other profit / Revenue fell 0.2pp remained a drag).
Most of the margin increase comes from non-core items — core operations have not kept pace, this is a margin expansion to watch carefully.
Profitability trend
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital efficiency for utilities should be read alongside regulated tariffs and long-cycle depreciation — ROIC of 15.1% reflects a large fixed-asset base.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC expanded to 15.07%, rising 6.3pp. That translates to 15.07 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both NOPAT margin rose 2.8pp and capital turnover rose 0.23x, while invested capital contracted by 443bn — capital-return quality improved from both sides.
For utilities, ROIC reflects returns on a large fixed-asset base — this is a reference signal and should be read alongside regulated tariffs.

Balance Sheet
ROIC for utilities reflects a large fixed-asset base and regulated tariffs — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Leverage is elevated, requiring monitoring — liabilities at 1.57x equity, net debt at 1.11x equity.
Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 445.9bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and higher inventories.
Working Capital Drivers
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Working Capital Efficiency
Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 7.6 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 24.4 days, DSO fell 6.0 days, and DPO rose 10.9 days.
Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to slower inventory turnover — more capital is being tied up in inventory.
For utilities, working capital cycle reflects regulated pricing mechanics and long-term settlement contracts — DSO/DIO/DPO should be treated as contextual signals rather than pure efficiency indicators.
Watchpoints
CCC is up by +7.6 days, indicating weaker working-capital turnover versus the prior year.
DIO increased by +24.4 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

Is financial risk significant?
Check leverage, liquidity, and cash-flow conversion.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 1.11x and interest coverage only at 2.96x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 48.4% of debt, and total debt stands at 482.7bn.
Leverage for utilities reflects long-term capital needs for fixed assets and recovery through regulated pricing — elevated leverage is structural to the industry.
Watchpoints
Net debt / equity stands at 1.11x, increasing balance-sheet pressure.
Short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

Cash Flow
With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 342.7bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -1,240.7bn.
Post-investment cash flow was negative +898.0bn. Financing cash flow was positive +1,260.2bn.
CFO / net income was 0.37x.
Track how much investment can be funded internally from operating cash flow.
For utilities, high capex and long investment cycles are structural — short-term FCF volatility does not reflect long-term cash generation through regulated pricing.
Cash Conversion

Investment Takeaway
The business is showing brightening signals, but the improvement is still early and not yet thick enough to read as a confirmed trend. The brighter spot is operating efficiency, with net margin improving 2.6 pp. The next item to monitor is capital efficiency, with ROIC at 15.1%. The main risk still sits in leverage and liquidity, with interest coverage at 2.96x.
Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 21.94% after expanding 2.6pp versus the same period last year.
Watchpoint: Capital efficiency needs cycle context.
Key risk: leverage and liquidity remain a pressure point, with net debt / equity at 1.11x and a thin cash buffer.
