What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, NHC is improving on both revenue and margins, suggesting current growth is backed by both scale and operating efficiency — earnings have been recovering gradually over multiple periods. However, a significant portion of profit is supported by non-core sources, making the picture not entirely clear.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE rose from 0.8% to 10.0% — all three components improved, with asset turnover contributing the most.
Is the profit sustainable?
Margins improved (+4.5pp), but earnings still rely significantly on non-core sources — warrants closer scrutiny.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin expanded to 5.21%, rising 4.5pp. Core operating signals are improving as SG&A / Revenue fell 2.8pp are enough to offset pressure from Gross margin fell 1.3pp (in addition, Other profit / Revenue rose 4.5pp added support while Net financial result / Revenue fell 1.3pp remained a drag).
Most of the margin increase comes from non-core items — core operations have not kept pace, this is a margin expansion to watch carefully.
Profitability trend
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Watchpoints
Other income accounts for 43.1% of PBT and lifted net margin by 3.2pp — separate the operating contribution from this source.
Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital is being used more efficiently — ROIC rose and cash cycle shortened to -10.8 days.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC expanded to 4.77%, rising 3.3pp. That translates to 4.77 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both NOPAT margin rose 1.5pp and capital turnover rose 0.57x, with invested capital holding roughly steady — capital-return quality improved from both sides.
NOPAT margin is the main cushion preventing ROIC from slipping as invested capital keeps expanding — the quality of this improvement depends on whether margin holds once the new capital is fully deployed.
Watchpoints
ROIC is currently 4.77% — below the typical cost-of-capital threshold; worth tracking whether upcoming periods can rise above this level.
CAPITAL EFFICIENCY TREND

Balance Sheet
ROIC is improving — the asset structure below shows how capital is being allocated. Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 0.44x equity, net debt at 0.16x equity.

Working Capital Drivers
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Working Capital Efficiency
Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 20.7 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 36.1 days, DSO fell 5.4 days, and DPO fell 20.8 days.
Improvement comes mainly from faster inventory turnover — watch whether this trend persists in coming periods.

Leverage & Liquidity

At present, short-term debt accounts for 12.5% of total debt, cash equals 38.2% of debt, and total debt stands at 15.4bn.

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 4.5 pp. The next item to monitor is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is -11.5%. The main risk still sits in capital efficiency remains weak, with ROIC at 4.8%.
Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 5.21% after expanding 4.5pp versus the same period last year.
Watchpoint: cash flow is currently keeping pace with accounting earnings, with CFO / net income at 2.67x. Even so, net financial result still accounts for -11.5% of PBT, so the earnings mix still needs monitoring.
Key risk: Capital efficiency remains weak.
