Securitas B

Securitas shares lost 11.4%, falling to SEK 150.30 after the interim report for Q2 2026, which contained a clear growth warning. Revenue declined from SEK 38.56bn to SEK 37.84bn and organic revenue growth collapsed to 0% (prior year: 5%). Adjusted operating margin improved slightly to 7.6%, EPS rose 7% and cash generation remained solid, but analysts' doubts about the growth outlook drove the sell-off and wiped out much of last year’s gains. » Altro su de.investing.com

Securitas reports an adjusted operating margin of 7.0% in Q1 2026 (+30 basis points) with organic revenue growth of 0% (2% adjusted). Operating profit rose 8% in real terms, EPS benefited from disposal gains, and operating cash flow and free cash flow improved markedly. The Technology and Solutions business contributed disproportionately to profitability, while North America was weighed down by stagnant revenues and installation issues. The stock fell after the results, but management sticks to full-year targets and points to a Capital Markets Day on 16 June 2026 for further strategic clarification. » Altro su de.investing.com

Securitas released Q1 figures: the operating margin improved for the 21st consecutive quarter to 7.0%, and the Technology and Solutions segment reached an operating margin of 10.7%. Organic revenue growth stagnated, and adjusted growth of 2% was below expectations, with weaker installation business in North America weighing particularly on results. Adjusted EPS grew 34% in real terms, yet the stock fell about 4.5% after the earnings call. Management continues to focus on margin improvement, strong free cash flow generation and debt reduction, targeting conversion of 70–80% of operating profit into cash flow. » Altro su de.investing.com
