Epiroc A (SE0015658109) stock rose after the group won a SEK 610 million underground equipment order from MMG Limited for the Khoemacau Copper Mine in Botswana, and MarketScreener showed a real-time estimate of SEK 265.20 at 08:37:49 on September 1, 2026.
The order was booked in Q3 2026, while Epiroc said the equipment will be delivered from Q4 2026 to Q2 2028. MarketScreener also put the average target price at SEK 279.81, about 5.75 percent above the last close of SEK 264.60.
Botswana order moves the tape
According to MarketScreener, the deal covers face drilling rigs, production drilling rigs, cable bolting rigs, loaders and mine trucks. Epiroc said the fleet will support the expansion of the Khoemacau Copper Mine in northwest Botswana.
The company also said the package includes a remote-control solution, spare parts, tools and on-site service, which points to more than a single equipment sale. That matters because the mix reaches into aftermarket and support revenue, not only the machine order itself.
Price and target gap
The same MarketScreener page showed a last close of SEK 264.60 and an average target price of SEK 279.81 on September 1, 2026. That leaves a gap of SEK 15.21, or 5.75 percent.
