What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, AMS is improving on both revenue and margins, though the magnitude is still moderate — profit momentum has been slowing across consecutive periods. 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

2025Q1 6.6% = 1.6% × 1.01 × 4.02
2026Q1 8.5% = 2.0% × 0.96 × 4.50

ROE rose from 6.6% to 8.5% — mainly driven by leverage, despite asset turnover moving in the opposite direction.

Net margin: 2.0% +0.3pp Asset turnover: 0.96x -0.04x Leverage: 4.50x +0.48x

Is the profit sustainable?

Accounting profit is positive but operating cash flow has not caught up — needs more time to confirm.

very positive positive stable watch under pressure

What is driving the margin?

Net margin edged up to 1.98%, rising 0.3pp. Core operating signals are improving as SG&A / Revenue fell 1.3pp are enough to offset pressure from Gross margin fell 2.1pp (with additional support from Other profit / Revenue rose 0.4pp and Net financial result / Revenue rose 0.3pp).

Margin improves from both core operations and non-core items — the core foundation is positive, but the sustainability of non-core contributions needs monitoring.

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Is capital being used efficiently?

Evaluate capital, asset, and working-capital efficiency.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

ROIC stands at 3.55%, broadly flat versus the same period. That translates to 3.55 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both components held their rhythm — NOPAT margin and capital turnover were both stable, while invested capital rose by 216bn.

ROIC is in a stable range — capital efficiency has not moved clearly.

Watchpoints

ROIC remains low

ROIC is currently 3.55% — below the typical cost-of-capital threshold; worth tracking whether upcoming periods can rise above this level.

CAPITAL EFFICIENCY TREND

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

ROIC 3.55% +0.2pp
NOPAT Margin 2.24% +0.1pp
Capital Turnover 1.59x +0.03x
Average Invested Capital 2,307.0bn +215.6bn

Balance Sheet

Leverage is elevated, requiring monitoring — liabilities at 3.54x equity, net debt at 1.94x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 1,130.1bn, roughly 28.9% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 142.7bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and higher inventories. Part of that drag was offset by higher payables.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables increased → lower CFO: −485.8bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −328.1bn
Payables increased → higher CFO: +671.2bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 24.1 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 7.4 days, DSO rose 3.0 days, and DPO fell 13.7 days.

All 3 drivers are deteriorating — working capital is becoming more deeply tied up in the operating cycle.

Watchpoints

Cash conversion cycle remains stretched

CCC stands at 162.4 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Receivables collection is slowing

DSO increased by +3.0 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Working Capital Efficiency

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables 52.6 days +3.0 days
Inventory 146.5 days +7.4 days
Payables 36.7 days −13.7 days
Cash Conversion Cycle 162.4 days +24.1 days

Is financial risk significant?

Check leverage, liquidity, and cash-flow conversion.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 1.94x and interest coverage only at 1.07x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 79.8% of total debt, cash equals 17.2% of debt, and total debt stands at 2,065.3bn.

Watchpoints

Net leverage is elevated

Net debt / equity stands at 1.94x, increasing balance-sheet pressure.

Interest coverage is thin

Interest coverage is 1.07x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Leverage and liquidity trend

Net Debt / Equity 1.94x +0.46x
Interest Coverage 1.07x −0.00x
Cash / Debt 17.2% +11.2pp
Short-term Debt / Total Debt 79.8% −3.9pp
CFO / NI -0.36x −5.41x

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Cash Flow

Leverage needs watching — cash flow below shows the ability to service debt from operations. Operating cash flow reached 236.2bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -206.4bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +29.7bn. Financing cash flow was positive +215.3bn.

CFO / net income was -0.36x.

After spending +423.8bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −450.2bn.

Cash Conversion

TTM Cash Conversion · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

CFO TTM 26.4bn −297.6bn
Cash Capex 423.8bn +333.9bn
FCF TTM −450.2bn −631.5bn

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 3.6%. The main offsetting support comes from earnings conversion is confirmed, with CFO/NI at -0.36x.

Improvement: earnings conversion looks more confirmed, with CFO / net income at -0.36x.

Key risk: Capital efficiency remains weak.
