Addtech acquired 82 percent of Mechanical Power Transmission Ltd on October 5, 2026, and Addtech stock gained 2.01 percent at Lang & Schwarz by 12:21 p.m. CEST on October 9, 2026. According to Cision, the transaction closed on October 2 and should have a marginally positive effect on earnings per share in the current fiscal year.

Three milestones shape the story

On May 20, 2026, Addtech reported fiscal-year 2025/26 revenue of SEK 22.70 billion, up 4.20 percent from the prior fiscal year, according to Affarsvarlden. On July 14, 2026, first-quarter revenue reached SEK 6.17 billion, up 5.40 percent, while operating profit was SEK 870.00 million.

The October 5 acquisition is the latest event in that chronology. Mechanical Power Transmission, which operates under the DePe Gear brand, employs 57 people and makes custom-engineered gears, transmissions and driveline components for industrial customers.

What comes next for earnings?

Addtech's first-quarter operating margin was 14.10 percent, compared with 14.70 percent in the preceding quarter, while profit after tax was SEK 631.00 million. The figures show continued earnings growth, but the lower sequential margin places more weight on mix, acquisition integration and organic demand in the next report.

Affarsvärlden lists October 22, 2026, as the next interim report date and February 2, 2027, for the following report. Addtech's acquisition model remains central: the MPT deal adds industrial capability, but its earnings contribution is described only as marginal rather than quantified.

Stock remains below its yearly high

On Nasdaq Stockholm, Addtech was last at SEK 323.00 at 12:24 p.m. CEST on October 9, 2026. Its 52-week range was SEK 283.20 to SEK 365.40, while market capitalization was SEK 83.10 billion on the same date. The share therefore remained below its yearly high even as the euro quotation gained against its prior close.

Lang & Schwarz showed EUR 28.92 in trading on October 9, 2026 at 12:21 p.m. CEST, plus 2.01 percent versus the prior close of EUR 28.35 on October 8, 2026. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of Addtech stock.
