What Is Changing

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE rose from 19.2% to 33.1% — mainly driven by asset turnover, despite leverage moving in the opposite direction.
Is the profit sustainable?
Margins are improving and earnings quality is solid — a durable foundation for ROE.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin expanded to 12.29%, rising 5.2pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 8.0pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 3.0pp (with additional support from Net financial result / Revenue rose 0.3pp and Other profit / Revenue rose 0.0pp).
The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

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. Balance sheet is exceptionally sound — liabilities at 0.31x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.49x equity.
Over the last 12 months, working capital released 3.2bn of cash, mainly thanks to higher payables. Pressure from higher receivables and higher inventories only partly offset that benefit.
Working Capital Drivers
TTM YoY · 2024Q2 -> 2025Q3
Working Capital Efficiency
Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 1.4 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 0.2 days, DSO fell 2.9 days, and DPO fell 4.2 days.
Working capital cycle is flat — components are offsetting each other.
Watchpoints
CCC is up by +1.4 days, indicating weaker working-capital turnover versus the prior year.
DIO increased by +0.2 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

Is financial risk significant?
Financial risk is low — the company has net cash and CFO reached 27.3bn.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage looks fairly comfortable, with net debt / equity at -0.49x and interest coverage at 348.39x.
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.

Cash Flow
With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 27.3bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -1.7bn.
Post-investment cash flow was positive +25.6bn. Financing cash flow was negative +2.9bn.
CFO / net income was 1.35x.
After spending +2.1bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +25.2bn.

Investment Takeaway
The business is entering a broader improvement phase — not just stronger earnings but better operating quality as well. Margin, ROIC, and cash flow all improving shows the business is growing in a cleaner and more efficient way than before. Notably, the improvement trend has been confirmed across multiple cycles, from margin to capital efficiency and cash generation. Even so, effective tax rate looks unusual remains the area to verify in upcoming periods, with effective tax rate at 0.3%.
Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 12.29% after expanding 5.2pp versus the same period last year.
Watchpoint: the effective tax rate looks unusual, so current net profit may not fully reflect underlying earnings quality.
