The current picture
What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q2 basis, PMB is showing some signs of improvement versus the same period, but the current picture is not yet broad enough to confirm a stronger trend — the growth momentum has held across consecutive periods. However, operating cash flow is significantly negative relative to profit — this needs monitoring in coming periods.

A closer look at what is happening inside the business
A company's statements are read with the questions that fit its type of business.
Is the profit sustainable?
Accounting profit is positive but operating cash flow has not caught up — needs more time to confirm.
Revenue Growth
●Is growth real and durable?
Trailing-12-month revenue grew 1.1% year on year — but the quarterly pace is slowing (+5% → −29%).
3 of the last 4 quarters grew year on year.
- Revenue TTM
- 2,521bn +1.1%
- Latest quarter YoY
- −29% slowing
What is driving the margin?
●Net margin stands at 0.90%, broadly flat versus the same period. Supportive factors and pressure points are offsetting one another.
Margin is nearly flat but the underlying components are moving — this is a transitional phase, more time is needed to see the real trend.

- Gross Margin

- SG&A / Revenue

Cash Flow
●Is profit converting into cash?
With leverage safe, cash flow shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 35.9bn against investing cash flow of 0.4bn (annual cash-flow figures for 2025).
Post-investment cash flow was positive +36.3bn. Financing cash flow was negative +8.4bn.
CFO / net income was −0,77 lần.
Track how much investment can be funded internally from operating cash flow.
Cash capex or FCF data is incomplete, so the cash-conversion view is only partial.
Earnings Quality
●How much income is non-core?
Non-core income makes up 10.7% of pre-tax profit — worth monitoring.
Within that, net financial result at +10.7% of PBT.
- Non-core / PBT
- 10.7% moderate
- Net financial / PBT
- 10.7%
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.
Working Capital Efficiency
●Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 1.1 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 1.7 days, DSO rose 0.7 days, and DPO rose 0.1 days.
Working capital cycle is flat — components are offsetting each other.
DSO increased by +0.7 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.
DuPont
What drives ROE?
ROE rose from 10.5% to 14.3% — mainly driven by net margin, despite asset turnover moving in the opposite direction.
Is financial risk significant?
Financial risk is low — the company has net cash and CFO reached 35.9bn.
Leverage & Liquidity
▲Track net leverage, interest coverage, and the liquidity buffer on the balance sheet.
Debt maturity and the cash buffer remain the two key areas to monitor.
Some leverage signals are missing, so the current read should be treated as contextual.

- −0.93x
- Interest Coverage

Balance Sheet
▼Balance sheet is exceptionally sound — liabilities at 0.61x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.93x equity.
Inventory ended the period at 35.3bn, roughly 14.6% of total assets.
Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 37.9bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and higher inventories. Part of that drag was offset by higher payables.
In summary
Research synthesis
What this reporting period is showing
The business is showing brightening signals, but the improvement is still early and not yet thick enough to read as a confirmed trend. The brighter spot is earnings conversion is confirmed, with CFO/NI at −0.77x. The next item to monitor is capital efficiency.
- Improvement: earnings conversion looks more confirmed, with CFO / net income at −0.77x.
- Watchpoint: Capital efficiency needs cycle context.
What to verify next
Questions for the next period
Whether revenue sustains its +1,1% YoY pace or begins to slow.
Whether margins hold around the current 0.90% level or narrow again.
Whether operating cash flow holds its 35.9bn (cumulative for 2025) level in upcoming periods or weakens.
