Trend Analysis

ROE declined by 68.1 pp over 2 years. Driven by net margin declining (-34.3% → -140.0%), asset turnover declining (0.29x → 0.15x), leverage rising (1.62x → 4.10x). 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)
