What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, VNT is improving on both growth and profitability, painting a notably more positive picture versus the same period — profit is at an all-time high. However, operating cash flow is significantly negative relative to profit — this needs monitoring in coming periods.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE rose from 2.1% to 8.9% — mainly driven by asset turnover, despite leverage moving in the opposite direction.
Is the profit sustainable?
Accounting profit is positive but operating cash flow has not caught up — needs more time to confirm.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin edged up to 1.31%, rising 1.0pp. Despite pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 0.2pp and Gross margin fell 0.0pp, the offset came from Other profit / Revenue rose 0.1pp (pressure remains from Net financial result / Revenue fell 0.7pp).
The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

Is capital being used efficiently?
Evaluate capital, asset, and working-capital efficiency.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC expanded to 4.90%, rising 3.8pp. That translates to 4.90 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main driver is NOPAT margin rose 0.9pp, with capital turnover fell 0.07x; with invested capital holding roughly steady.
NOPAT margin is the main cushion preventing ROIC from slipping as invested capital keeps expanding — the quality of this improvement depends on whether margin holds once the new capital is fully deployed.
Watchpoints
ROIC is currently 4.90% — below the typical cost-of-capital threshold; worth tracking whether upcoming periods can rise above this level.

Balance Sheet
ROIC is improving — the asset structure below shows how capital is being allocated. Capital structure is balanced — liabilities at 1.99x equity, net debt at 0.71x equity.
Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 30.9bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and lower payables.
Working Capital Drivers

Working Capital Efficiency
Track receivable, inventory, and payable turns to judge working-capital efficiency.
Track DSO, DIO, DPO components to evaluate working capital turnover efficiency.
Watchpoints
DSO increased by +10.0 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Is financial risk significant?
Leverage is safe but FCF is negative at 8.7bn due to capex of 0.2bn — an investment choice, not an urgent risk.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 0.71x and interest coverage only at 1.31x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 39.9% of debt, and total debt stands at 280.3bn.
Watchpoints
Interest coverage is 1.31x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.
Short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

Cash Flow
Operating cash flow reached -6.9bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -19.5bn.
Post-investment cash flow was negative +26.4bn. Financing cash flow was negative +25.7bn.
CFO / net income was -0.42x.
After spending +0.2bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −8.7bn.

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 capital efficiency remains weak remaining the main constraint, with ROIC at 4.9%. The main offsetting support comes from operating efficiency, with net margin improving 1.0 pp.
Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 1.31% after expanding 1.0pp versus the same period last year.
Key risk: Capital efficiency remains weak.
