What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, PAT posted slightly higher revenue but margins narrowed — the two forces offset each other, leaving the overall picture largely unchanged — the growth momentum has held across consecutive periods. More notably, operating cash flow is significantly negative relative to profit — this is pressure that needs close monitoring.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE fell from 51.7% to 51.1% — leverage weakened the most, though asset turnover still provided support.
Is the profit sustainable?
Margins narrowed but earnings quality remains clean — pressure is mainly operational.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin narrowed to 16.20%, falling 0.6pp. The main pressure is Gross margin fell 2.8pp, outweighing the improvement in SG&A / Revenue fell 1.8pp (with additional support from Net financial result / Revenue rose 0.1pp).
The pressure comes from core operations — this is a concerning type of decline, not a one-off movement.
Profitability trend

Is capital being used efficiently?
Evaluate capital, asset, and working-capital efficiency.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC stands at 44.35%, broadly flat versus the same period. That translates to 44.35 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. NOPAT margin narrowed 0.6pp, but capital turnover rose 0.08x, with invested capital holding roughly steady — the two factors are offsetting each other, keeping overall ROIC nearly unchanged.
Overall ROIC is flat while internal components are moving — watch which side becomes dominant in coming periods.

Balance Sheet
Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 1.44x equity, net debt at 0.28x equity.
Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 367.3bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and higher inventories.
Working Capital Drivers
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Working Capital Efficiency
Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 5.8 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 0.8 days, DSO fell 9.7 days, and DPO fell 16.2 days.
Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to shorter payment timing — may reflect pressure from suppliers.
Watchpoints
CCC is up by +5.8 days, indicating weaker working-capital turnover versus the prior year.

Is financial risk significant?
Leverage is safe but FCF is negative at 158.0bn due to capex of 101.0bn — an investment choice, not an urgent risk.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage looks fairly comfortable, with net debt / equity at 0.28x and interest coverage at 23.35x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 1.0% of debt, and total debt stands at 176.9bn.
Watchpoints
Short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.
Cash / debt stands at 1.0%, leaving limited liquidity buffer to monitor.

Investment Takeaway
The business is under real pressure, but the current picture has not turned broadly adverse. A notable area has clearly weakened, making the near-term outlook hard to call bright; even so, other parts of the business are still holding up, with leverage and liquidity remaining the main constraint, with interest coverage at 23.35x. The main offsetting support comes from earnings conversion is confirmed, with CFO/NI at -0.18x.
Improvement: earnings conversion looks more confirmed, with CFO / net income at -0.18x.
Key risk: leverage and liquidity remain a pressure point, with net debt / equity at 0.28x and a thin cash buffer.
