What Is Changing

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE rose from 16.5% to 18.5% — mainly driven by net margin, despite asset turnover and leverage moving in the opposite direction.
Is the profit sustainable?
Margins improved (+44.1pp), but earnings still rely significantly on non-core sources — warrants closer scrutiny.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin expanded to 56.15%, rising 44.1pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 10.7pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 15.1pp (with additional support from Net financial result / Revenue rose 47.0pp).
Most of the margin increase comes from non-core items — core operations have not kept pace, this is a margin expansion to watch carefully.

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 operating efficiency, with net margin improving 44.1 pp. Even so, earnings quality still needs closer monitoring because net financial result remains elevated.
Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 56.15% after expanding 44.1pp versus the same period last year.
Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 105.8% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at 0.09x.
