Trend Analysis

ROE improved by 11.8 pp over 3 years. Driven by net margin improving (2.8% → 3.9%), asset turnover improving (0.29x → 0.89x), leverage rising (3.44x → 4.22x). High financial leverage (equity multiplier > 4x) amplifies returns but also risk.

How to read DuPont

  • Rising ROE from margin = pricing power, operational improvement (good)
  • Rising ROE from turnover = better asset utilization (good)
  • Rising ROE from leverage = more debt, amplified risk (caution)
  • Falling ROE across all three = structural deterioration (red flag)
