Epiroc stock (ISIN SE0015658109) was last at SEK 263.60 on Nasdaq Stockholm on October 2, 2026, up 1.97 percent from the previous close. The move followed a new underground equipment order for a platinum mine in South Africa, while the next quarterly report is scheduled for October 28, 2026.
South African order extends mining demand
According to Yahoo Finance on September 30, 2026, Epiroc will supply Sibanye-Stillwater with underground mining equipment for the Siphumelele shaft at the Rustenburg platinum mine. Deliveries are expected to start in Q4 2026, adding equipment demand to a market already supported by mine mechanization projects.
The order includes LHD 5.5 LP low-profile loaders, UV42 utility vehicles and UV42 cassettes. The equipment portfolio draws on Epiroc's 2023 acquisition of AARD Mining Equipment, which broadened its underground solutions, according to the same September 30, 2026 report from Yahoo Finance.
Q2 revenue rose 16.4 percent
In Q2 2026, revenue reached SEK 16.702 billion, up 16.4 percent from SEK 15.130 billion in Q2 2025. Operating profit increased to SEK 3.316 billion from SEK 2.831 billion, while the operating margin widened to 19.9 percent from 18.7 percent, according to Affärsvärlden in its Q2 2026 financial data.
That comparison matters because Epiroc's quarterly revenue also rose from SEK 14.351 billion in Q1 2026 to SEK 16.702 billion in Q2. The figures point to stronger sequential activity, but the October report will show whether the improvement carried into the second half.
Q3 report arrives October 28
Epiroc said on October 1, 2026, that it will publish Q3 2026 results on October 28, 2026, followed by an investor, analyst and media presentation. The date gives investors a defined checkpoint for order intake, revenue growth and margin performance.
