What Is Changing
On a TTM 2026Q1 basis, VPD is improving on both revenue and margins, suggesting current growth is backed by both scale and operating efficiency — the growth momentum has held across consecutive periods. The next test will be whether this pace holds as the comparison base gets tougher.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
ROE = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier
ROE rose from 13.9% to 18.8% — 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 39.52%, rising 3.7pp. Core operating signals are improving as Gross margin rose 4.5pp are enough to offset pressure from SG&A / Revenue rose 0.9pp (in addition, Net financial result / Revenue rose 1.5pp added support while Other profit / Revenue fell 0.3pp 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.

Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital efficiency for utilities should be read alongside regulated tariffs and long-cycle depreciation — ROIC of 20.9% reflects a large fixed-asset base.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC expanded to 20.93%, rising 7.1pp. That translates to 20.93 in after-tax operating profit for every 100 units of operating capital. Both NOPAT margin rose 3.9pp and capital turnover rose 0.14x, with invested capital easing slightly by 120bn — capital-return quality improved from both sides.
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. Balance sheet is exceptionally sound — liabilities at 0.10x equity, with a net cash position equivalent to 0.20x equity.
Over the last 12 months, working capital released 0.0bn of cash.
Working Capital Drivers
TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1
Working Capital Efficiency
Cash conversion cycle lengthened by 1.0 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 1.9 days, DSO fell 1.1 days, and DPO fell 0.2 days.
Working capital cycle is flat — components are offsetting each other.
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.
Watchpoints
CCC is up by +1.0 days, indicating weaker working-capital turnover versus the prior year.
DIO increased by +1.9 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

Is financial risk significant?
Financial risk is low — the company has net cash and CFO reached 299.1bn.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage looks fairly comfortable, with net debt / equity at -0.20x and interest coverage at 103.14x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, cash equals 2134.0% of debt, and total debt stands at 16.5bn.
Leverage for utilities reflects long-term capital needs for fixed assets and recovery through regulated pricing — elevated leverage is structural to the industry.
Watchpoints
Short-term debt accounts for 100.0% of total debt, raising near-term refinancing needs.

Cash Flow
With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 299.1bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -12.9bn.
Post-investment cash flow was positive +286.2bn. Financing cash flow was negative +226.8bn.
CFO / net income was 1.33x.
After spending +28.8bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +353.3bn.
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 3.7 pp. The next item to monitor is capital efficiency, with ROIC at 20.9%.
Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 39.52% after expanding 3.7pp versus the same period last year.
Watchpoint: Capital efficiency needs cycle context.
