## Asset intensity and goodwill

Ratios are derived from reported values. Goodwill is used only when separately reported, never inferred from combined intangible assets.

| Metric | Value | Sources |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| Asset intensity (fixed assets ÷ revenue) | 35.8% | S100YCV0 |
| Fixed assets ÷ total assets | 37.7% | S100YCV0 |
| Goodwill ÷ parent equity | 8.8% | S100YCV0 |

Goodwill over 4 years: 32,461 → 30,377 JPY; total investing cash flow: -181,852 JPY. This does not imply causation.

### Cash quality

Net cash = cash − interest-bearing debt. Net debt ratio = (interest-bearing debt − cash) ÷ positive operating cash flow. Omit when debt components are incomplete; other ratios are derived from reported figures.

| Metric | Value |
| --- | ---: |
| Cash ratio (cash ÷ total assets) | 5.2% |
| Cash ÷ revenue | 4.9% |
| Net cash (cash − interest-bearing debt) | — |
| Net debt ÷ operating cash flow | — |
| Cash conversion (operating CF ÷ operating income) | 83.3% |
| Cash vs. profit gap | 25,141 JPY mn (of net income 64.7%) |
| Shareholder returns / net income | 18.6% |
| Shareholder returns / FCF | 112.5% |
| Shareholder payments — dividends / net income | 18.6% |
| Shareholder payments — dividends / FCF | 112.5% |
| CapEx intensity (capex ÷ revenue) | 4.9% |
| Investing CF relative to operating CF | 93.0% |

## ROA and ROE

ROE is decomposed into net margin × asset turnover × financial leverage. Leverage can raise ROE, so the ratio alone does not assess a company's condition. Ending balances are used without a prior year; total equity approximates parent equity when unavailable.

| Period | Net margin | Asset turnover | ROA | Financial leverage | ROE | Sources |

## AI commentary（text by AI; the tables above are authoritative、claude-code）

- Revenue for the FY ending Mar 2026 was ¥1.18T, up 18.3% from ¥998.8B a year earlier.
- Operating income rose 34.0% to ¥76.9B and net income attributable to owners rose 39.0% to ¥38.9B, so profit grew faster than sales.
- Operating cash flow jumped from ¥9.12B to ¥64B, and free cash flow swung from -¥29.3B to a positive ¥6.44B.

### Drivers

- Overseas sales volumes rose at Tri-Arrows Aluminum Inc. and UACJ (Thailand) Co., Ltd., backed by steady demand for can stock, which lifted total sheet volumes
- Higher aluminum ingot prices lifted revenue; the company's own "business profit" measure, which strips out inventory valuation effects, grew far less than operating income
- Operating cash flow rose mainly because pretax income was higher

### Risks

- Sharp short-term swings in aluminum ingot prices can change inventory values and make profit jump around from period to period
- US tariff policy and tension in the Middle East could raise purchasing and shipping costs or make materials harder to secure
- Rising interest rates or tighter lending conditions could make borrowing more expensive
