What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, PSE 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 growth momentum has held across consecutive periods. 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 is broadly flat at 12.4% — the components are offsetting one another.
Is the profit sustainable?
Margins narrowed but earnings quality remains clean — pressure is mainly operational.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin stands at 0.56%, broadly flat versus the same period. Supportive factors and pressure points are offsetting one another.

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.

Balance Sheet
ROIC above should be read with industry context — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Balance sheet is exceptionally sound — liabilities at 0.71x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.12x equity.
Inventory ended the period at 32.9bn, roughly 11.0% of total assets.
Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 19.4bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables. Part of that drag was offset by lower inventories and higher payables.
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 3.7 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 0.1 days, DSO fell 5.0 days, and DPO fell 1.2 days.
Improvement comes mainly from faster receivables collection — reflects the quality of receivables management.
Watchpoints
DIO increased by +0.1 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

Is financial risk significant?

Some leverage signals are missing, so the current read should be treated as contextual.

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 earnings conversion is confirmed, with CFO/NI at 0.01x. The next item to monitor is capital efficiency.
Improvement: earnings conversion looks more confirmed, with CFO / net income at 0.01x.
Watchpoint: Capital efficiency needs cycle context.
