What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, SDN is declining across multiple metrics versus the same period, suggesting current pressure is not coming from just one side — margins have been compressing consistently over multiple periods. More notably, a significant portion of profit is supported by non-core sources, further affecting earnings quality.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 14.3% = 7.9% × 1.10 × 1.64
2026Q1 12.9% = 7.9% × 1.02 × 1.60

ROE fell from 14.3% to 12.9% — asset turnover weakened the most.

Net margin: 7.9% -0.0pp Asset turnover: 1.02x -0.08x Leverage: 1.60x -0.04x

Is the profit sustainable?

Margins are under pressure while earnings still rely significantly on non-core sources.

very positive positive stable watch under pressure

What is driving the margin?

Net margin stands at 7.89%, 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.

Watchpoints

Other income is supporting margin

Other income accounts for 48.2% of PBT and lifted net margin by 2.3pp — separate the operating contribution from this source.

Is capital being used efficiently?

Capital efficiency is declining — check whether the drag is from margins or turnover.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

ROIC fell to 5.95%, losing 2.7pp. That translates to 5.95 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both NOPAT margin narrowed 1.5pp and capital turnover fell 0.11x, with invested capital holding roughly steady — pressure came from both operational efficiency and asset efficiency.

Pressure came from the margin side — core operations are weakening, not just a temporary asset-management issue.

CAPITAL EFFICIENCY TREND

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

ROIC 5.95% −2.7pp
NOPAT Margin 4.15% −1.5pp
Capital Turnover 1.43x −0.11x
Average Invested Capital 79.3bn +2.1bn

Balance Sheet

ROIC declined — the balance sheet shows how capital is being deployed. Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 0.59x equity, net debt at 0.13x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 23.3bn, roughly 21.9% of total assets.

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

Working Capital Efficiency

Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 0.8 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 6.4 days, DSO rose 0.5 days, and DPO rose 6.1 days.

Working capital cycle is flat — components are offsetting each other.

Watchpoints

Cash conversion cycle remains stretched

CCC stands at 104.7 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Receivables collection is slowing

DSO increased by +0.5 days, pointing to slower receivables turnover.

Receivables 84.2 days +0.5 days
Inventory 109.5 days +6.4 days

Cash Conversion Cycle 104.7 days +0.8 days

Is financial risk significant?

Financial risk is low — leverage is safe, both CFO and FCF are positive.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 0.13x and interest coverage only at 1.52x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 27.1% of debt, and total debt stands at 12.7bn.

Watchpoints

Interest coverage is thin

Interest coverage is 1.52x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Short-term refinancing pressure is meaningful

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

Net Debt / Equity 0.13x −0.02x
Interest Coverage 1.52x −0.36x
Cash / Debt 27.1% −0.7pp

Cash Flow

With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 9.8bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -0.1bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +9.7bn. Financing cash flow was negative +8.6bn.

CFO / net income was 0.10x.

After spending +0.1bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +0.7bn.

Cash Conversion

TTM Cash Conversion · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

CFO TTM 0.9bn −3.0bn
Cash Capex 0.1bn −0.3bn
FCF TTM +0.7bn −2.7bn

Investment Takeaway

The business is showing a few weaker signals, but the current magnitude is not yet clear enough to conclude that this is a broader weakening phase. The next item to monitor is the earnings mix, when non-core contribution is -34.1%. The main risk still sits in leverage and liquidity, with interest coverage at 1.52x.

Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for -34.1% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at 0.10x.

Key risk: leverage and liquidity still require discipline, with interest coverage only at 1.52x.
