Executive summary
Q3 saw flat organic sales growth, with strong performance in professional segments, especially robotics and handheld, but subdued demand in residential and North American markets.
Operating income and margin improved year-over-year, driven by cost control, favorable product mix, and ongoing cost savings programs, despite currency and tariff headwinds.
Cash flow remained strong, enabling significant net debt reduction and a healthier balance sheet.
Announced closure of the Brastad facility in Sweden to support an asset-light strategy, with SEK 100m in annual cost savings expected from 2027.
New CEO Glen Instone appointed in August 2025, focusing on competitiveness, cost efficiency, and innovation.
Financial highlights
Q3 net sales were SEK 9,204m, with flat organic growth and a -5% currency impact; operating income rose to SEK 141m (1.5% margin) from SEK 52m (0.5%).
Net debt reduced to SEK 9.9bn (12.8bn), net debt/EBITDA ratio improved to 2.2 (2.4).
Cash flow positive at SEK 4.6bn year-to-date; direct operating cash flow in Q3 was SEK 3,455m.
Inventory reduced by SEK 1.3bn, including SEK 400m from a plant divestment.
Robotics and Battery segments now represent 22% of net sales, up from 20% a year ago.
Outlook and guidance
Continued focus on innovation and product launches, especially in robotics and automation, with new AI-based robotic mowers and a strategic roadmap to be presented in December 2025.
Full effect of cost savings program expected in 2026; Brastad closure to generate SEK 100m annual savings from 2027.
Q4 headwinds anticipated from currency (approx. SEK 100m) and tariffs (approx. SEK 100m), with ongoing weak consumer sentiment.
No significant price increases expected in 2025; price development expected to be flat overall.
Uncertainty remains due to trade policy, FX volatility, and weak consumer sentiment, especially in North America.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
