What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, NSC posted slightly higher profit versus the same period, but the increase is thin and not yet paired with clear improvement in revenue or margins. The point still to be proven is whether this profit level holds without further revenue momentum.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE is broadly flat at 15.1% — the components are offsetting one another.
Is the profit sustainable?
Margins are improving and earnings quality is solid — a durable foundation for ROE.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin edged up to 10.50%, rising 1.4pp. Core operating signals are improving as SG&A / Revenue fell 1.2pp are enough to offset pressure from Gross margin fell 0.2pp (with additional support from Other profit / Revenue rose 0.4pp and Net financial result / Revenue rose 0.0pp).
The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

Is capital being used efficiently?
Evaluate capital, asset, and working-capital efficiency.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC narrowed to 11.13%, falling 0.9pp. That translates to 11.13 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Although NOPAT margin rose 1.1pp, capital turnover fell 0.22x still pulled ROIC lower, while invested capital rose by 229bn.
Pressure came from turnover — added capital has not been absorbed quickly enough, a typical investment-cycle dynamic.
CAPITAL EFFICIENCY TREND

Balance Sheet
Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 0.62x equity, net debt at 0.28x equity.
Inventory ended the period at 796.5bn, roughly 30.5% of total assets.
Over the last 12 months, working capital released 254.1bn of cash, mainly thanks to lower receivables and lower inventories. Pressure from lower payables only partly offset that benefit.
Working Capital Drivers
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Working Capital Efficiency
The inventory build-up noted above is reflected in a longer cash cycle. Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 35.0 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 30.8 days, DSO fell 0.3 days, and DPO fell 4.5 days.
Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to slower inventory turnover — more capital is being tied up in inventory.
Watchpoints
CCC stands at 245.9 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.
DIO increased by +30.8 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

Is financial risk significant?
Check leverage, liquidity, and cash-flow conversion.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage looks fairly comfortable, with net debt / equity at 0.28x and interest coverage at 5.23x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 34.9% of debt, and total debt stands at 697.4bn.
Watchpoints
Short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

Post-investment cash flow was negative +220.7bn. Financing cash flow was positive +324.2bn.

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 1.4 pp. The main risk still sits in working capital is tied up too long in the operating cycle, with CCC extended to 246 days.
Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 10.50% after expanding 1.4pp versus the same period last year.
Key risk: working capital remains tied up for too long, with cash cycle at 245.9 days.
