Epiroc A (ISIN SE0015658109) stock is trading near its recent highs after the Swedish mining equipment group reported higher Q2 2026 earnings and secured an approximately SEK 610 million underground equipment order linked to the expansion of the Khoemacau Copper Mine in Botswana, as of September 1, 2026.
Large Botswana order supports Epiroc A stock
According to industry coverage compiled by IM Mining and other sector sources, Epiroc has secured an order worth about SEK 610 million from MMG Limited and its mining contractors for underground mining equipment to support the expansion of the Khoemacau Copper Mine in Botswana.
The order covers face drilling rigs, production drilling rigs, cable-bolting rigs, loaders and underground mine trucks, together with remote-control systems, spare parts, training and on-site technical support, with deliveries scheduled to begin in Q4 2026 and run through Q2 2028.
Such a multi-year order helps underpin revenue visibility in the underground equipment segment and gives investors a reference point for future backlog and capacity utilization as the Botswana expansion progresses.
Q2 2026 results show earnings growth
Per data referenced in an Epiroc-focused corporate report, the company has published its Q2 2026 report as the most recent quarterly set of figures available to investors.
In that Q2 2026 report, Epiroc highlighted year-on-year growth in revenue and profit, with total revenue for the quarter climbing compared with Q2 2025 and operating profit increasing as well, illustrating that the large order environment is feeding through to the income statement.
While the detailed segment breakdown is not fully reproduced in the same overview, the Q2 2026 report is identified as the latest interim report, meaning the numbers from that period are the current basis for fundamental analysis as of early September 2026.
For investors, the combination of growing Q2 2026 earnings and new orders like the SEK 610 million Botswana contract helps support the investment case that Epiroc is capturing demand in underground mining as expansion projects move ahead.
Sustainability and technology add to the story
In addition to financial metrics, Epiroc continues to emphasize sustainability and innovation, which can play a role in long-term valuation.
On September 2, 2026, sector outlet Mining Metal News reported that Epiroc AB had, for the second year in a row, earned a Gold Medal from global sustainability ratings firm EcoVadis for its sustainability work, underlining that environmental and social performance is increasingly part of the group’s profile.
The same day, a detailed technical article on IM Mining described Epiroc’s Automatic Bit Changer for large down-the-hole drilling rigs, noting extensive field tests and planned deployments on D65 rigs in markets such as Australia where autonomous drilling fleets are already in operation.
For shareholders, these developments illustrate an effort to align Epiroc’s product portfolio with both productivity and sustainability requirements, potentially strengthening its competitive position in bids like the Khoemacau Copper Mine expansion.

Representative product: underground drilling rigs
Epiroc is widely known for its underground drilling rigs, which are central to contracts like the Khoemacau Copper Mine order and to the broader underground mining market.
The equipment package for Botswana includes face drilling rigs and production drilling rigs designed to support high-precision underground development, cable-bolting rigs for ground support, loaders and mine trucks for material handling, and remote-control systems that allow safer and more efficient operation in demanding underground conditions.
These products form a significant part of Epiroc’s portfolio, and orders that combine multiple rig types with automation and service components can provide recurring revenue from support and parts over the life of the fleet, which investors often view as an important factor in valuation.
