Elekta stock (SE0000163628) closed at SEK 50.05 on Nasdaq Stockholm on September 9, 2026, up 0.50 percent on the day, with 1,654,266 shares traded. MarketScreener also shows the stock down 11.81 percent for 2026 and trading below the 52-week high of SEK 66.70.

Analysts stay cautious

According to MarketScreener, UBS reiterated a sell view on Elekta on September 8, 2026, and Barclays raised its target to SEK 45.50 from SEK 44.50 on September 1, 2026. The same page shows 14 analysts with a HOLD consensus and an average target price of SEK 59.69, or 19.27 percent above the last close of SEK 50.05.

Barclays' higher target still sits below the average target on MarketScreener, which underlines how split the coverage is around the Swedish medtech name. Pareto Securities and SB1 Markets both lifted their targets to SEK 68 and SEK 60 respectively on August 28, 2026, while UBS stayed negative on September 8, 2026.

Q4 numbers set the frame

On Elekta's investor relations page, the company says the year-end report for May-April 2025/26 was published on May 28, 2026, and that full-year net sales rose 1 percent in constant exchange rates. The same report says annualized cost savings exceeded SEK 500 million and that the Q4 adjusted EBIT margin reached 18.9 percent, compared with 16.3 percent a year earlier.

The company also said net debt fell to SEK 3,191 million in that report. For investors, the combination of a 1 percent sales increase, a 18.9 percent margin and more than SEK 500 million in annualized savings is the cleaner read-through than the modest daily price move.

Stockholm close and event clock

The share is still below the 2026 high of SEK 66.70 and above the 2026 low of SEK 45.70, so the chart remains in a broad but contained range. Elekta's next annual general meeting was scheduled for September 3, 2026 on the investor relations page, and the next Q2 report is listed for November 25, 2026.
