What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, SPC has not accelerated revenue sharply, but profitability is improving visibly — the growth momentum has held across consecutive periods. Profit growth is driven mainly by better operations rather than scale expansion — a foundation that tends to be more durable.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE rose from -25.0% to 24.0% — mainly driven by asset turnover, despite leverage moving in the opposite direction.
Is the profit sustainable?
Margins are improving and earnings quality is solid — a durable foundation for ROE.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin expanded to 3.15%, rising 7.2pp. Core operating signals are improving as SG&A / Revenue fell 7.9pp are enough to offset pressure from Gross margin fell 1.0pp (in addition, Net financial result / Revenue rose 0.6pp added support while Other profit / Revenue fell 0.3pp remained a drag).
The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.
Profitability trend
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital is being used more efficiently — ROIC rose and cash cycle shortened to 77.2 days.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC expanded to 14.10%, rising 26.4pp. That translates to 14.10 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both NOPAT margin rose 6.7pp and capital turnover rose 1.62x, while invested capital contracted by 56bn — capital-return quality improved from both sides.
Capital efficiency improved through NOPAT margin — this is a quality-led improvement when operating profit leads.

Working Capital Drivers
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Is financial risk significant?
Check leverage, liquidity, and cash-flow conversion.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 0.24x and interest coverage only at 0.65x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 93.0% of total debt, cash equals 53.0% of debt, and total debt stands at 71.2bn.
Watchpoints
Interest coverage is 0.65x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.
Short-term debt accounts for 93.0% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.
Leverage and liquidity trend

Post-investment cash flow was positive +31.8bn. Financing cash flow was negative +13.9bn.
CFO / net income was 2.65x.
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.

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 operating efficiency, with net margin improving 7.2 pp. The next item to monitor is cash generation still needs confirmation. The main risk still sits in leverage and liquidity, with interest coverage at 0.65x.
Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 3.15% after expanding 7.2pp versus the same period last year.
Watchpoint: Cash generation still needs confirmation.
Key risk: leverage and liquidity still require discipline, with interest coverage only at 0.65x.
