What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, APC is going through a period of clear decline across multiple metrics at once. More notably, profit is significantly supported by non-core sources and operating cash flow is not yet positive — the earnings quality picture needs close monitoring.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE is broadly flat at -4.6% — the components are offsetting one another.
Is the profit sustainable?
Margins are under pressure while earnings still rely significantly on non-core sources.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin fell to -21.51%, losing 2.9pp. The main pressure comes from Gross margin fell 3.3pp and SG&A / Revenue rose 3.0pp (with additional support from Net financial result / Revenue rose 2.7pp).
The pressure comes from core operations — this is a concerning type of decline, not a one-off movement.

Watchpoints
Financial result accounts for 52.8% of PBT and lifted net margin by 2.7pp — separate the operating contribution from this source.
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. Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 0.37x equity, net debt at 0.28x equity.
Over the last 12 months, working capital released 3.4bn of cash, mainly thanks to lower receivables and lower inventories. Pressure from lower payables only partly offset that benefit.
Working Capital Drivers
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Working Capital Efficiency
Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 18.7 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 2.8 days, DSO fell 9.9 days, and DPO rose 5.9 days.
All 3 drivers (collection, inventory, payables) are improving — working capital turnover is strengthening across the board.

Is financial risk significant?
Financial risk is low — leverage is safe, both CFO and FCF are positive.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 0.28x and interest coverage only at -1.90x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 11.7% of total debt, cash equals 9.0% of debt, and total debt stands at 166.2bn.
Watchpoints
Interest coverage is -1.90x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.
Cash / debt stands at 9.0%, leaving limited liquidity buffer to monitor.

Cash Flow
With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 42.7bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of 1.1bn.
Post-investment cash flow was positive +43.8bn. Financing cash flow was negative +42.1bn.
CFO / net income was -1.70x.
After spending +1.0bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +41.8bn.

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. Even so, earnings quality still needs closer monitoring because net financial result remains elevated. The main risk still sits in core profitability, with net margin down 2.9 pp.
Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 52.8% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at -1.70x.
Key risk: profitability remains under pressure, with trailing-12M net margin at -21.51% after a 2.9pp decline versus the same period last year.
