What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, VFG is retaining some revenue, but margins are collapsing sharply — profit momentum has been slowing across consecutive periods. Costs or the profit mix are deteriorating faster than revenue is declining — this is the factor to watch ahead of everything else.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 32.7% = 13.5% × 1.47 × 1.64
2026Q1 19.9% = 9.6% × 1.33 × 1.55

ROE fell from 32.7% to 19.9% — all three components weakened, with asset turnover being the main drag.

Net margin: 9.6% -3.9pp Asset turnover: 1.33x -0.14x Leverage: 1.55x -0.09x

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 9.62%, losing 3.9pp. The main pressure is Gross margin fell 2.3pp, outweighing the improvement in SG&A / Revenue fell 3.3pp (with lingering pressure from Net financial result / Revenue fell 0.4pp and Other profit / Revenue fell 0.0pp).

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 should be read in industry context — ROIC may fluctuate with business specifics.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

Track how much operating profit the business generates on invested capital.

Industry characteristics make ROIC cyclical — this is a reference signal and should be read with the business context.

Balance Sheet

ROIC above should be read with industry context — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Balance sheet is exceptionally sound — liabilities at 0.41x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.28x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 860.1bn, roughly 35.5% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 627.4bn of cash, mainly thanks to lower receivables and higher payables. Pressure from higher inventories only partly offset that benefit.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables decreased → higher CFO: +7.1bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −38.0bn
Payables increased → higher CFO: +658.3bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 39.3 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 12.0 days, DSO rose 5.8 days, and DPO rose 57.1 days.

Extended payment timing is the main driver — consider whether this trades off supplier relationships.

Watchpoints

Cash conversion cycle remains stretched

CCC stands at 126.1 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Receivables collection is slowing

DSO increased by +5.8 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Is financial risk significant?

Financial risk is low — the company has net cash and CFO reached 128.3bn.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage looks fairly comfortable, with net debt / equity at -0.28x and interest coverage at 8.78x.

Debt maturity and the cash buffer remain the two key areas to monitor.

Some leverage signals are missing, so the current read should be treated as contextual.

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 3.9 pp. The next watchpoint is capital efficiency. The main offsetting support comes from earnings conversion is confirmed, with CFO/NI at 2.84x.

Improvement: earnings conversion looks more confirmed, with CFO / net income at 2.84x.

Watchpoint: Capital efficiency needs cycle context.

Key risk: profitability remains under pressure, with trailing-12M net margin at 9.62% after a 3.9pp decline versus the same period last year.
