The current picture
What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q2 basis, BSL has not accelerated revenue sharply, but profitability is improving visibly — profit is at an all-time high. Profit growth is driven mainly by better operations rather than scale expansion — a foundation that tends to be more durable.

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.
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 3.0% year on year — not from a single spike: quarterly growth stepped up from −13% to +10%.
2 of the last 4 quarters grew year on year.
- Revenue TTM
- 952bn +3.0%
- Latest quarter YoY
- +10% accelerating
What is driving the margin?
▲▲Net margin expanded to 9.37%, rising 5.9pp. The main driver is Gross margin rose 6.6pp and SG&A / Revenue fell 0.1pp, moving in line with the stronger net margin (with additional support from Net financial result / Revenue rose 0.6pp).
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 70.7bn against investing cash flow of -48.3bn (annual cash-flow figures for 2025).
Post-investment cash flow was positive +22.4bn. Financing cash flow was negative +30.6bn.
CFO / net income was 0,35 lần.
After spending +16.8bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +14.6bn.
Earnings Quality
●How much income is non-core?
Non-core income makes up 16.7% of pre-tax profit — worth monitoring.
Within that, net financial result at +16.4%, other profit at +0.3% of PBT.
- Non-core / PBT
- 16.7% moderate
- Net financial / PBT
- 16.4%
- Other profit / PBT
- 0.3%
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.
Working Capital Efficiency
●Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 1.7 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 8.5 days, DSO rose 5.7 days, and DPO fell 4.5 days.
Working capital cycle is flat — components are offsetting each other.
CCC is up by +1.7 days, indicating weaker working-capital turnover versus the prior year.
DSO increased by +5.7 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.
DuPont
What drives ROE?
ROE rose from 6.7% to 17.6% — mainly driven by net margin, despite leverage moving in the opposite direction.
Is financial risk significant?
Financial risk is low — the company has net cash and CFO reached 70.7bn.
Leverage & Liquidity
▲Track net leverage, interest coverage, and the liquidity buffer on the balance sheet.
Debt maturity and the cash buffer remain the two key areas to monitor.
Some leverage signals are missing, so the current read should be treated as contextual.
- Net Debt / Equity
- −0.10x
- Interest Coverage
- None
- Cash / Debt
- None
- Short-term Debt / Total Debt
- None

Balance Sheet
▼Balance sheet is exceptionally sound — liabilities at 0.30x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.10x equity.
Inventory ended the period at 78.7bn, roughly 11.8% of total assets.
Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 78.2bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and higher inventories.
In summary
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 5.9 pp. The next item to monitor is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is 16.4%.
- Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 9.37% after expanding 5.9pp versus the same period last year.
- Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 16.4% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at 0.35x.
What to verify next
Questions for the next period
Whether revenue sustains its +3,0% YoY pace or begins to slow.
Whether margins hold around the current 9.37% level or narrow again.
Whether operating cash flow holds its 70.7bn (cumulative for 2025) level in upcoming periods or weakens.
