What Is Changing

On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, TSB posted a sharp profit decline versus the same period — margins have been compressing consistently over multiple periods. More notably, profit is significantly supported by non-core sources and operating cash flow is not yet positive — the earnings quality picture needs close monitoring.

Financial Highlights

Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

2025Q1 3.1% = 1.4% × 1.37 × 1.66
2026Q1 0.8% = 0.3% × 1.46 × 1.76

ROE fell from 3.1% to 0.8% — net margin weakened the most, though asset turnover and leverage still provided support.

Net margin: 0.3% -1.1pp Asset turnover: 1.46x +0.09x Leverage: 1.76x +0.09x

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 narrowed to 0.31%, falling 1.1pp. The main pressure is Gross margin fell 2.0pp, outweighing the improvement in SG&A / Revenue fell 1.8pp (with lingering pressure from Net financial result / Revenue fell 0.3pp).

The pressure comes from core operations — this is a concerning type of decline, not a one-off movement.

Profitability trend

Net Margin 0.31% −1.1pp
Gross Margin 11.40% −2.0pp
SG&A / Revenue 10.61% −1.8pp
Non-core / Revenue 0.38% −0.3pp

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Watchpoints

Financial result share remains high

Even though contribution decreased by 0.3pp, financial result still accounts for 47.9% of PBT — earnings durability should be monitored in coming periods.

Is capital being used efficiently?

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

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

ROIC narrowed to 0.83%, falling 1.4pp. That translates to 0.83 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. The main pressure came from NOPAT margin narrowed 0.9pp, outweighing the movement in capital turnover; with invested capital holding roughly steady.

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

Watchpoints

ROIC remains low

ROIC is currently 0.83% — below the typical cost-of-capital threshold; worth tracking whether upcoming periods can rise above this level.

CAPITAL EFFICIENCY TREND

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

ROIC 0.83% −1.4pp
NOPAT Margin 0.45% −0.9pp
Capital Turnover 1.83x +0.18x
Average Invested Capital 105.7bn +0.6bn

Balance Sheet

ROIC declined — the balance sheet shows how capital is being deployed. Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 0.60x equity, net debt at 0.42x equity.

Inventory ended the period at 60.0bn, roughly 48.3% of total assets.

Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 19.8bn of cash, mainly because of higher receivables and higher inventories.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables increased → lower CFO: −6.7bn
Inventories increased → lower CFO: −6.1bn
Payables decreased → lower CFO: −7.0bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 6.1 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 2.1 days, DSO fell 6.0 days, and DPO rose 2.2 days.

Improvement comes mainly from faster receivables collection — reflects the quality of receivables management.

Watchpoints

Cash conversion cycle remains stretched

CCC stands at 148.9 days, suggesting that working capital remains tied up for a relatively long operating cycle.

Inventory turnover is slowing

DIO increased by +2.1 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

Working Capital Efficiency

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables 37.0 days −6.0 days
Inventory 136.5 days +2.1 days
Payables 24.6 days +2.2 days
Cash Conversion Cycle 148.9 days −6.1 days

Is financial risk significant?

Leverage is safe but FCF is negative at 18.1bn due to capex of 2.8bn — an investment choice, not an urgent risk.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 0.42x and interest coverage only at 1.77x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 6.8% of debt, and total debt stands at 34.6bn.

Watchpoints

Interest coverage is thin

Interest coverage is 1.77x, 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.

Leverage and liquidity trend

Net Debt / Equity 0.42x +0.04x
Interest Coverage 1.77x −1.05x
Cash / Debt 6.8% +1.4pp
Short-term Debt / Total Debt 100.0% 0.0pp
CFO / NI -25.57x −33.34x

Cash Flow

Operating cash flow reached -12.7bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of 8.5bn.

Post-investment cash flow was negative +4.3bn. Financing cash flow was positive +3.6bn.

CFO / net income was -25.57x.

After spending +2.8bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of −18.1bn.

Cash Conversion

TTM Cash Conversion · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

CFO TTM 15.2bn −33.8bn
Cash Capex 2.8bn −2.2bn
FCF TTM −18.1bn −31.6bn

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. Even so, earnings quality still needs closer monitoring because net financial result remains elevated. The main risk still sits in capital efficiency remains weak, with ROIC at 0.8%.

Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 47.9% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at -25.57x.

Key risk: Capital efficiency remains weak.
