Hexagon stock reports 12 percent organic sales growth

Hexagon stock (ISIN SE0015961909) was trading at SEK 97.88 on Nasdaq Stockholm on September 24, 2026, down 0.93 percent from the previous close. The measurement technology group reported second-quarter net sales of EUR 1,050 million, 4.7 percent above consensus and 4 percent higher than a year earlier.

Second-quarter figures beat estimates

According to MarketScreener, adjusted operating profit reached EUR 272 million in Q2 2026, 5.8 percent above consensus and 4.6 percent higher year over year. Organic sales growth was 12 percent in the same quarter, giving the result a stronger operating profile than the headline revenue growth alone suggests.

The comparison matters because Hexagon exceeded expectations on both sales and adjusted operating profit. For investors, the combination of a 4.7 percent sales beat and a 5.8 percent operating-profit beat provides a clearer gauge of execution than the reported 4 percent year-over-year sales increase.

Acquisitions expand measurement reach

Hexagon completed the acquisition of the remaining 49 percent of Wuhan ZG Technology on September 7, 2026, taking full ownership of the 3D scanning specialist, according to MarketScreener. Hexagon had previously owned 51 percent of the company since 2021.

The transaction brings ZG Technology fully onto Hexagon's platform for portable 3D scanning. That strategic step complements the company's industrial and geospatial technology base, while the second-quarter figures show the existing business was already producing double-digit organic growth.
