What Is Changing

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE rose from 16.6% to 19.9% — mainly driven by net margin, 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 59.49%, rising 6.0pp. The main driver is Gross margin rose 4.9pp and SG&A / Revenue fell 1.4pp, moving in line with the stronger net margin (in addition, Net financial result / Revenue rose 3.0pp added support while Other profit / Revenue fell 1.3pp remained a drag).
The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital efficiency for utilities should be read alongside regulated tariffs and long-cycle depreciation — ROIC of 10.8% reflects a large fixed-asset base.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC expanded to 10.85%, rising 2.3pp. That translates to 10.85 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main driver is NOPAT margin rose 7.1pp, with capital turnover broadly stable; while invested capital rose by 71bn.
For utilities, ROIC reflects returns on a large fixed-asset base — this is a reference signal and should be read alongside regulated tariffs.

Balance Sheet
ROIC for utilities reflects a large fixed-asset base and regulated tariffs — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Capital structure is balanced — liabilities at 1.06x equity, net debt at 0.75x equity.
Over the last 12 months, working capital released 0.0bn of cash.
Working Capital Drivers
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Working Capital Efficiency
Track receivable, inventory, and payable turns to judge working-capital efficiency.
Track DSO, DIO, DPO components to evaluate working capital turnover efficiency.
For utilities, working capital cycle reflects regulated pricing mechanics and long-term settlement contracts — DSO/DIO/DPO should be treated as contextual signals rather than pure efficiency indicators.

Is financial risk significant?
Financial risk is low — leverage is safe, both CFO and FCF are positive.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage is balanced for now, with net debt / equity at 0.75x and interest coverage at 10.83x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 25.5% of total debt, cash equals 5.3% of debt, and total debt stands at 232.0bn.
Leverage for utilities reflects long-term capital needs for fixed assets and recovery through regulated pricing — elevated leverage is structural to the industry.
Watchpoints
Cash / debt stands at 5.3%, leaving limited liquidity buffer to monitor.

Cash Flow
With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 94.2bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -78.4bn.
Post-investment cash flow was positive +15.8bn. Financing cash flow was negative +15.2bn.
CFO / net income was 1.74x.
After spending +70.2bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +22.0bn.
For utilities, high capex and long investment cycles are structural — short-term FCF volatility does not reflect long-term cash generation through regulated pricing.

Investment Takeaway
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 operating efficiency, with net margin improving 6.0 pp. The next item to monitor is capital efficiency, with ROIC at 10.8%. The main risk still sits in leverage and liquidity, with interest coverage at 10.83x.
Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 59.49% after expanding 6.0pp versus the same period last year.
Watchpoint: Capital efficiency needs cycle context.
Key risk: leverage and liquidity remain a pressure point, with net debt / equity at 0.75x and a thin cash buffer.
