Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 18.3% = 10.3% × 0.65 × 2.73
2026Q1 40.8% = 22.9% × 0.83 × 2.16

ROE rose from 18.3% to 40.8% — mainly driven by asset turnover, despite leverage moving in the opposite direction.

Net margin: 22.9% +12.6pp Asset turnover: 0.83x +0.18x Leverage: 2.16x -0.57x

What is driving the margin?

Net margin expanded to 22.88%, rising 12.6pp. The main driver is SG&A / Revenue fell 8.8pp and Gross margin rose 7.4pp, moving in line with the stronger net margin (in addition, Net financial result / Revenue rose 0.9pp added support while Other profit / Revenue fell 0.6pp remained a drag).

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.

ROIC
NOPAT Margin
Capital Turnover 1.39x +0.30x
Average Invested Capital 211.2bn +12.5bn

Balance Sheet

ROIC above should be read with industry context — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 1.13x equity, net debt at 0.13x equity.

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 13.2bn 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: +12.2bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −13.1bn
Payables increased → higher CFO: +14.0bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 14.0 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 12.1 days, DSO fell 66.3 days, and DPO fell 64.3 days.

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

Is financial risk significant?

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, capital efficiency remains the area to verify in upcoming periods.

Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 22.88% after expanding 12.6pp versus the same period last year.

Watchpoint: Capital efficiency needs cycle context.
