Hexagon’s Q2e outlook was better than feared after its Q1 profit warning. We see an attractive risk/reward following the recent sell-off amid: 1) the organic sales growth and earnings momentum story unfolding with defensive traits (albeit bruised); 2) the ‘NewCo’ spin-off crystallising values; 3) new leadership starting on Monday, which should appeal to a broader investor base; and 4) an undemanding valuation on absolute and relative bases, near a historical trough. We reiterate our BUY but have...
Reported Q1 earnings were in line with consensus. However, we still believe the turbulent environment with tariffs, huge FX swings and geopolitical uncertainty could hurt the company. We suspect these factors could have a large effect from Q2. The stock market probably read the comments on the global environment as a risk, leading to the sell-off in the stock. We reiterate our BUY and SEK250 target price.
Given its geographical sales exposure, Getinge should see a strong tailwind from FX in Q1, but if spot rates stay as they are, this should turn abruptly into a significant headwind in Q2.

We reiterate our BUY, but have trimmed our target price to SEK250 (255).
After recent market volatility, we see upside potential due to: 1) a long-awaited acceleration in organic growth (with defensive traits); 2) earnings momentum translating into YOY adj. EPS growth of 17% in 2025e; 3) the ‘NewCo’ spinoff (c25% of group EBIT) crystallising values; 4) new leadership appealing to a broader international investor base; 5) strong Q4 results that encouraged bulls and de-risked the 2025e case, potentially attracting new investors; and 6) undemanding valuation, in our opi...
Our recent field trip to India (visiting Volvo, Epiroc, Trelleborg, Autoliv and others) alongside our analysis suggests the country is set to take centre stage as a global manufacturing hub over the coming decade, shifting from being the sixth- to the third-largest end-market for the Swedish Industrial sector. India’s strong economic growth trajectory and favourable demographics mean the companies: 1) see double-digit growth as sustainable; 2) are pursuing manufacturing capacity expansions; and ...
