What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q2 basis, ASG is improving on both revenue and margins, suggesting current growth is backed by both scale and operating efficiency — the growth momentum has held across consecutive periods. The next test will be whether this pace holds as the comparison base gets tougher.

A closer look at what is happening inside the business

A company's statements are read with the questions that fit its type of business.

01

Is the profit sustainable?

Margins are improving and earnings quality is solid — a durable foundation for ROE.

Revenue Growth

▲

Is growth real and durable?

Trailing-12-month revenue grew 35.4% year on year — but the quarterly pace is slowing (+42% → +35%).

4 of the last 4 quarters grew year on year.

What is driving the margin?

▲

Net margin expanded to 6.49%, rising 2.8pp. The main driver is Gross margin rose 1.6pp and SG&A / Revenue fell 0.6pp, moving in line with the stronger net margin.

The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

Cash Flow

▼▼

Is profit converting into cash?

With leverage safe, cash flow shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 220.0bn against investing cash flow of -343.6bn (annual cash-flow figures for 2025).

Post-investment cash flow was negative +123.6bn. Financing cash flow was positive +167.4bn.

CFO / net income was 3,04 lần.

After spending +516.2bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −127.3bn.

Earnings Quality

▲

How much income is non-core?

About 100% of pre-tax profit comes from core operations.

Within that, net financial result at −0.2%, other profit at +0.2% of PBT.

02

Is capital being used efficiently?

Capital is being used more efficiently — ROIC rose and cash cycle shortened to 13.4 days.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

▲▲

ROIC expanded to 6.53%, rising 3.7pp. That translates to 6.53 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both NOPAT margin rose 2.8pp and capital turnover rose 0.23x, with invested capital easing up by 117bn — capital-return quality improved from both sides.

NOPAT margin expansion has lifted ROIC above the deposit-rate threshold but below typical cost of equity — more same-direction periods are needed to confirm a structural shift.

Working Capital Efficiency

▲

Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 9.8 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 0.4 days, DSO fell 8.8 days, and DPO rose 0.6 days.

All 3 drivers (collection, inventory, payables) are improving — working capital turnover is strengthening across the board.

What drives ROE?

Net margin 6.5% +2.8pp
Asset turnover 0.75x +0.13x
Financial leverage 1.70x +0.09x
ROE 8.3% +4.6pp

ROE rose from 3.7% to 8.3% — all three components improved, with net margin contributing the most.

03

Is financial risk significant?

Leverage is safe but FCF is negative at 127.3bn due to capex of 516.2bn — an investment choice, not an urgent risk.

Leverage & Liquidity

●

Leverage is balanced for now, with net debt / equity at 0.27x and interest coverage at 3.88x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 35.1% of total debt, cash equals 40.1% of debt, and total debt stands at 1,000.4bn.

Balance Sheet

●

The asset structure shows capital being allocated increasingly efficiently. Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 0.72x equity, net debt at 0.27x equity.

None

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 109.2bn of cash, mainly thanks to higher payables. Pressure from higher receivables and higher inventories only partly offset that benefit.

Research synthesis

What this reporting period is showing

The business is heading the right way, but the current picture is still at partial confirmation — not yet a fully clean case. The positive points have clearly improved, showing the operating base is better than before. The brighter spot is operating efficiency, with net margin improving 2.8 pp. The main risk still sits in self-funded cash generation remains weak.

  • Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 6.49% after expanding 2.8pp versus the same period last year.
  • Key risk: self-funded cash generation remains weak, with trailing-12M FCF still at 127.3bn.

Questions for the next period

  1. Whether revenue sustains its +35,4% YoY pace or begins to slow.

  2. Whether margins hold around the current 6.49% level or narrow again.

  3. Whether operating cash flow holds its 220.0bn (cumulative for 2025) level in upcoming periods or weakens.
