What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q2 basis, PPT is growing strongly on the back of scale expansion, while margins have only improved slightly — profit is at an all-time high. 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.

01

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 25.0% year on year — not from a single spike: quarterly growth stepped up from +29% to +32%.

4 of the last 4 quarters grew year on year.

What is driving the margin?

●

Net margin edged up to 0.67%, rising 0.4pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 1.0pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 0.1pp (with lingering pressure from Net financial result / Revenue fell 0.3pp).

The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

Cash Flow

●

Is profit converting into cash?

With leverage safe, cash flow shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 11.9bn against investing cash flow of -23.8bn (annual cash-flow figures for 2025).

Post-investment cash flow was negative +11.9bn. Financing cash flow was positive +17.6bn.

CFO / net income was −0,75 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?

About 100% of pre-tax profit comes from core operations.

Within that, net financial result at −45.4%, other profit at +0.1% of PBT.

Net financial / PBT

02

Is capital being used efficiently?

Capital is being used more efficiently — ROIC rose and cash cycle shortened to 12.8 days.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

▲▲

ROIC expanded to 9.18%, rising 7.1pp. That translates to 9.18 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both NOPAT margin rose 0.5pp and capital turnover rose 3.51x, with invested capital holding roughly steady — capital-return quality improved from both sides.

NOPAT margin expansion has lifted ROIC above the deposit-rate threshold but below typical cost of equity — more same-direction periods are needed to confirm a structural shift.

Working Capital Efficiency

▲

Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 4.7 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO fell 7.8 days, DSO rose 2.4 days, and DPO fell 0.8 days.

Improvement comes mainly from faster inventory turnover — watch whether this trend persists in coming periods.

Receivables collection is slowing

DSO increased by +2.4 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

DuPont

What drives ROE?

Net margin 0.7% +0.4pp
Asset turnover 10.64x +2.28x
Financial leverage 2.06x -0.43x
ROE 14.6% +9.9pp

ROE rose from 4.7% to 14.6% — mainly driven by net margin, despite leverage moving in the opposite direction.

03

Is financial risk significant?

Check leverage, liquidity, and cash-flow conversion.

Leverage & Liquidity

●

Leverage is balanced for now, with net debt / equity at 0.38x and interest coverage at 2.04x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 37.5% of debt, and total debt stands at 157.9bn.

Short-term refinancing pressure is meaningful

Short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

Balance Sheet

●

The asset structure shows capital being allocated increasingly efficiently. Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 1.51x equity, net debt at 0.38x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 140.5bn, roughly 27.8% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital released 0.0bn of cash.

Research synthesis

What this reporting period is showing

The business is showing a brighter picture at the headline-earnings level, but what deserves a closer look right now is the quality of that improvement. Reported net profit may look better, but if financial income, other income, or unusually low taxes contribute too much, this is not yet a clean enough growth base to extrapolate further. The main bright spot is earnings conversion is confirmed, with CFO/NI at −0.75x. Even so, cash generation still needs confirmation still warrants monitoring in upcoming periods.

  • Improvement: earnings conversion looks more confirmed, with CFO / net income at −0.75x.
  • Watchpoint: Cash generation still needs confirmation.

Questions for the next period

  1. Whether revenue sustains its +25,0% YoY pace or begins to slow.

  2. Whether margins hold around the current 0.67% level or narrow again.

  3. Whether operating cash flow holds its 11.9bn (cumulative for 2025) level in upcoming periods or weakens.
