## 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) | 40.9% | S100XU4V |
| Fixed assets ÷ total assets | 21.8% | S100XU4V |
| Goodwill ÷ parent equity | 63.6% | S100XU4V |

Goodwill over 4 years: 8,222 → 11,190 JPY; total investing cash flow: -7,456 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) | 5.9% |
| Cash ÷ revenue | 11.0% |
| Net cash (cash − interest-bearing debt) | -¥13.1B |
| Net debt ÷ operating cash flow | 4.40× |
| Cash conversion (operating CF ÷ operating income) | 183.8% |
| Cash vs. profit gap | 2,194 JPY mn (of net income 279.1%) |
| Shareholder returns / net income | — |
| Shareholder returns / FCF | — |
| Shareholder payments — dividends / net income | 91.9% |
| Shareholder payments — dividends / FCF | 47.3% |
| CapEx intensity (capex ÷ revenue) | 7.1% |
| Investing CF relative to operating CF | 67.7% |

## 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 |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| 2021 | 7.0% | 0.45× | 3.1% | 2.60× | 8.2% | S100QGP6 |
| 2022 | 10.5% | 0.59× | 6.2% | 2.62× | 16.2% | S100SWCD |
| 2023 | 11.3% | 0.59× | 6.7% | 2.49× | 16.7% | S100VHHH |
