What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, VCF shows mild improvement in both revenue and margins, but the magnitude of change is narrow — profit is at an all-time high. This signal only becomes convincing if the improvement widens in coming periods.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE rose from 23.0% to 30.7% — all three components improved, with asset turnover contributing the most.
Is the profit sustainable?
Margins are improving and earnings quality is solid — a durable foundation for ROE.
What is driving the margin?
Net margin edged up to 18.25%, rising 0.6pp. The main driver is Gross margin rose 1.2pp and SG&A / Revenue fell 0.2pp, moving in line with the stronger net margin (in addition, Other profit / Revenue rose 0.2pp added support while Net financial result / Revenue fell 0.9pp remained a drag).
Margin improves from both core operations and non-core items — the core foundation is positive, but the sustainability of non-core contributions needs monitoring.
Profitability trend

Is capital being used efficiently?
Return on capital rose, but cash cycle lengthened by 24.2 days — working capital needs watching.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC expanded to 28.85%, rising 5.3pp. That translates to 28.85 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both NOPAT margin rose 0.4pp and capital turnover rose 0.26x, while invested capital contracted by 341bn — capital-return quality improved from both sides.
Capital efficiency improved through turnover — a positive sign for asset efficiency, but this momentum needs to hold as capital expands.

Balance Sheet
ROIC is improving — the asset structure below shows how capital is being allocated. Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 0.43x equity, net debt at 0.14x equity.
Inventory ended the period at 373.0bn, roughly 23.0% of total assets.
Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 232.7bn of cash, mainly because of higher inventories and lower payables. Part of that drag was offset by lower receivables.
Working Capital Drivers
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Working Capital Efficiency
Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 24.2 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 26.1 days, DSO fell 0.3 days, and DPO rose 1.6 days.
Working capital cycle lengthened mainly due to slower inventory turnover — more capital is being tied up in inventory.
Watchpoints
CCC is up by +24.2 days, indicating weaker working-capital turnover versus the prior year.
DIO increased by +26.1 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

Is financial risk significant?
Financial risk is low — leverage is safe, both CFO and FCF are positive.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage looks fairly comfortable, with net debt / equity at 0.14x and interest coverage at 55.81x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 10.6% of debt, and total debt stands at 193.5bn.
Watchpoints
Short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.
Cash / debt stands at 10.6%, 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 449.6bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of 953.2bn.
Post-investment cash flow was positive +1,402.8bn. Financing cash flow was negative +1,430.9bn.
CFO / net income was 0.50x.
After spending +191.8bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +57.8bn.

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 0.50x. Warning and risk signals are not yet decisive enough to shift the picture.
Improvement: earnings conversion looks more confirmed, with CFO / net income at 0.50x.
