Sandvik (ISIN SE0000667891) was trading at EUR 31.76 at Lang & Schwarz on October 16, 2026, at 9:48 a.m. CEST. Handelsbanken raised its Sandvik target from SEK 370 to SEK 380 and kept its Hold rating on October 15, 2026, according to Placera.
Target rises before quarterly results
The target revision arrives shortly before Sandvik's third-quarter report. The company has scheduled publication for October 22, 2026, at 8:00 a.m. CEST, followed by an investor webcast and conference call at 10:00 a.m. CEST, according to Sandvik. The timing gives the target change a near-term test: the next report will show whether the operating momentum behind the analyst view continued into the third quarter.
What does the margin say?
Sandvik's second-quarter indicators provide the clearest operating context. Revenue grew 24.00 percent at fixed exchange rates, while adjusted EBITA margin reached 22.60 percent and financial net debt to EBITDA stood at 1.00, according to the company's investor materials dated October 16, 2026. Those figures point to growth combined with a comparatively contained leverage measure, although the forthcoming report will determine whether the margin held.
Three dated signals for the stock
The recent sequence began with Sandvik's October 1, 2026 invitation to a Capital Markets Day scheduled for November 24-25, 2026. On October 5, 2026, the company announced the October 22 reporting date. Handelsbanken's October 15 target increase to SEK 380 is the latest of the three developments.
The Capital Markets Day will take place at Sandvik Mining's site in Tampere, Finland, and will cover strategic priorities, digitalization and automation, according to Sandvik. For investors, the dates create two separate checkpoints: the earnings release for near-term execution and the November event for longer-term strategy.
Stock price and next checkpoints
Sandvik's market capitalization was SEK 445.3 billion as of October 16, 2026, while its 52-week range was SEK 262.70 to SEK 413.10. The stock therefore remains below the upper end of its annual range, leaving the October 22 report as the next concrete test of the valuation backdrop.
Sandvik was trading at EUR 31.76 at Lang & Schwarz on October 16, 2026, at 9:48 a.m. CEST. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of Sandvik stock.
