Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 12.7% = 8.5% × 1.18 × 1.26
2026Q1 22.7% = 11.8% × 1.38 × 1.40

ROE rose from 12.7% to 22.7% — all three components improved, with asset turnover contributing the most.

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 11.76%, rising 3.3pp. The main driver is SG&A / Revenue fell 2.0pp and Gross margin rose 1.1pp, moving in line with the stronger net margin (in addition, Other profit / Revenue rose 1.1pp added support while Net financial result / Revenue fell 0.1pp remained a drag).

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

Is capital being used efficiently?

Capital is being used more efficiently — ROIC rose and cash cycle shortened to 48.4 days.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

ROIC expanded to 18.28%, rising 6.0pp. That translates to 18.28 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both NOPAT margin rose 2.4pp and capital turnover rose 0.23x, while invested capital rose by 102bn — capital-return quality improved from both sides.

Capital efficiency improved through NOPAT margin — this is a quality-led improvement when operating profit leads.

CAPITAL EFFICIENCY TREND

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

ROIC 18.28% +6.0pp
NOPAT Margin 10.92% +2.4pp
Capital Turnover 1.67x +0.23x
Average Invested Capital 753.8bn +102.3bn

Balance Sheet

ROIC is improving — the asset structure below shows how capital is being allocated. Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 0.54x equity, net debt at 0.24x equity.

Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 45.2bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and higher inventories.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables increased → lower CFO: −22.5bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −9.7bn
Payables decreased → lower CFO: −13.0bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 17.7 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 15.2 days, DSO fell 6.3 days, and DPO fell 3.8 days.

Improvement comes mainly from faster inventory turnover — watch whether this trend persists in coming periods.

Receivables 25.9 days −6.3 days
Inventory 39.5 days −15.2 days
Payables 17.0 days −3.8 days
Cash Conversion Cycle 48.4 days −17.7 days

Is financial risk significant?

Leverage is safe but FCF is negative at 23.1bn due to capex of 219.6bn — an investment choice, not an urgent risk.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage looks fairly comfortable, with net debt / equity at 0.24x and interest coverage at 21.78x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 94.6% of total debt, cash equals 26.1% of debt, and total debt stands at 222.9bn.

Watchpoints

Short-term refinancing pressure is meaningful

Short-term debt accounts for 94.6% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +30.8bn. Financing cash flow was negative +10.7bn.

CFO / net income was 1.32x.

After spending +219.6bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −23.1bn.

Cash Conversion

TTM Cash Conversion · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

CFO TTM 196.6bn −39.9bn
Cash Capex 219.6bn +26.8bn
FCF TTM −23.1bn −66.7bn

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. The residual risk still sits in self-funded cash generation remains weak.

Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 11.76% after expanding 3.3pp versus the same period last year.

Key risk: self-funded cash generation remains weak, with trailing-12M FCF still at 23.1bn.
