What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, BPC is showing some signs of improvement versus the same period, but the current picture is not yet broad enough to confirm a stronger trend — earnings have been recovering gradually over multiple periods. The point still to be proven is whether this improvement broadens out in coming periods.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 1.3% = 0.5% × 1.42 × 2.02
2026Q1 1.8% = 0.6% × 1.43 × 2.01

ROE rose from 1.3% to 1.8% — mainly driven by asset turnover, despite leverage moving in the opposite direction.

Net margin: 0.6% +0.2pp Asset turnover: 1.43x +0.02x Leverage: 2.01x -0.01x

Is the profit sustainable?

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

very positive positive stable watch under pressure

What is driving the margin?

Net margin stands at 0.63%, broadly flat versus the same period. Supportive factors and pressure points are offsetting one another.

Margin is nearly flat but the underlying components are moving — this is a transitional phase, more time is needed to see the real trend.

Is capital being used efficiently?

Evaluate capital, asset, and working-capital efficiency.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

ROIC edged up to 1.44%, rising 0.6pp. That translates to 1.44 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both NOPAT margin rose 0.2pp and capital turnover rose 0.23x, with invested capital holding roughly steady — capital-return quality improved from both sides.

NOPAT margin led the improvement, but the ROIC level has not yet cleared typical cost of capital — margin needs to hold in coming periods rather than being a one-period rebound.

Watchpoints

ROIC remains low

ROIC is currently 1.44% — 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 1.44% +0.6pp
NOPAT Margin 0.62% +0.2pp
Capital Turnover 2.34x +0.23x
Average Invested Capital 116.0bn −11.7bn

Balance Sheet

Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 0.80x equity, net debt at 0.14x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 26.6bn, roughly 15.6% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 17.2bn 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: +15.8bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −7.1bn
Payables increased → higher CFO: +8.5bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 16.3 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 7.0 days, DSO fell 16.9 days, and DPO rose 6.5 days.

Improvement comes mainly from faster receivables collection — reflects the quality of receivables management.

Watchpoints

Cash conversion cycle remains stretched

CCC stands at 160.9 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Inventory turnover is slowing

DIO increased by +7.0 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

Cash Conversion Cycle 160.9 days −16.3 days

Is financial risk significant?

Check leverage, liquidity, and cash-flow conversion.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 0.14x and interest coverage only at 1.96x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 48.3% of debt, and total debt stands at 25.8bn.

Watchpoints

Interest coverage is thin

Interest coverage is 1.96x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Short-term refinancing pressure is meaningful

Short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

Leverage and liquidity trend

Net Debt / Equity 0.14x −0.18x
Interest Coverage 1.96x +0.86x
Cash / Debt 48.3% +34.0pp
Short-term Debt / Total Debt 100.0% 0.0pp
CFO / NI 11.66x +5.38x

Cash Flow

With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 6.0bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -0.6bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +5.4bn. Financing cash flow was negative +0.7bn.

CFO / net income was 11.66x.

Track how much investment can be funded internally from operating cash flow.

Cash capex or FCF data is incomplete, so the cash-conversion view is only partial.

Investment Takeaway

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 earnings conversion is confirmed, with CFO/NI at 11.66x. The next item to monitor is cash generation still needs confirmation. The main risk still sits in capital efficiency remains weak, with ROIC at 1.4%.

Improvement: earnings conversion looks more confirmed, with CFO / net income at 11.66x.

Watchpoint: Cash generation still needs confirmation.

Key risk: Capital efficiency remains weak.
