Husqvarna stock was trading at EUR 3.08 at Lang & Schwarz on September 29, 2026 at 4:03 p.m. CEST, down 0.65 percent versus the prior close of EUR 3.10. The latest analyst cuts point to a weaker third-quarter setup, even as Husqvarna's second-quarter figures showed SEK 14.38 billion in revenue and SEK 1.03 billion in earnings.
Analysts lower their targets
According to MarketScreener on September 22, 2026, SB1 Markets kept its neutral rating and cut its target from SEK 40.00 to SEK 35.00. The bank also reduced its 2026 to 2028 earnings-per-share forecasts by 7 percent to 12 percent after a warm, dry summer weakened lawn-mowing demand.
MarketScreener reported on September 18, 2026, that Pareto Securities lowered its target from SEK 37.00 to SEK 35.00 and maintained a hold rating. Pareto expected the first negative adjusted EBIT for a third quarter since the 2006 spinoff, citing weak sales, competition and hot weather.
Q2 results provide a counterweight
Yahoo Finance lists Q2 FY26 revenue of SEK 14.38 billion and earnings of SEK 1.03 billion. The earnings figure represented a 7.16 percent profit margin for the quarter, giving investors a concrete benchmark against the weaker third-quarter expectations.
The company also secured a regulatory foothold for its U.S. robotic-mower expansion. In a September 11, 2026 release, PR Newswire said four advanced Husqvarna mower platforms received conditional FCC approval for the U.S. market and are expected to launch in 2027. U.S. sales accounted for 24 percent of Group net sales in 2025, according to the release.
Stock remains below its yearly high
Husqvarna's market capitalization was SEK 19.9 billion on September 29, 2026. The 52-week range stood at SEK 33.96 to SEK 52.74, putting the Nasdaq Stockholm B-share near the lower end of its annual band and underscoring the market's caution toward the 2026 outlook.
For investors, the contrast is clear: Q2 delivered SEK 1.03 billion in earnings, while analysts are already modeling pressure on the next quarter. The September 29, 2026 Lang & Schwarz snapshot showed EUR 3.08 in trading, down 0.65 percent from the EUR 3.10 prior close on September 28, 2026.
