Husqvarna AB (publ) stock (ISIN SE0001662230) closed at SEK 37.13 on Nasdaq Stockholm on September 10, 2026, down 2.26 percent from the previous close of SEK 37.99 and 20.17 percent year to date per Nasdaq Stockholm data.

Stock performance and valuation context

According to Yahoo Finance, Husqvarna’s B share traded in a 52-week range between SEK 34.19 and SEK 52.74, putting the September 10, 2026 closing price roughly 29.5 percent below the recent high and about 8.6 percent above the recent low.

On the same date, Nasdaq Stockholm data show an intraday volume of 995,614 shares and an intraday market capitalization of SEK 21,234,000,000, highlighting that the move came in a reasonably active trading session for the mid-cap Swedish industrial.

New 400 series chainsaws and product backdrop

As Simply Wall St reported on September 11, 2026, Husqvarna has expanded its 400 series chainsaw range with three new models, including the AutoTune equipped 450X Rancher, which the analysis frames as a product launch arriving after a weak year for the stock.

The same commentary notes that Husqvarna shares were at SEK 37.13, with the 30-day share price return down 5.52 percent and the year-to-date price return down 20.25 percent, while the 1-year total shareholder return declined 26.46 percent, underscoring that the new chainsaws are being introduced into a period of soft momentum rather than a rally.

Analyst fair value and fundamental snapshot

According to the valuation overview in Simply Wall St, a widely followed narrative currently anchors Husqvarna’s fair value at SEK 43 per share, implying that the September 10, 2026 closing price of SEK 37.13 reflects a discount of around 13.7 percent versus that fair value estimate.

Price multiples from Yahoo Finance show a trailing price-earnings ratio of 14.97 based on diluted earnings per share of SEK 2.48 over the last twelve months, alongside a trailing revenue of SEK 44,980,000,000 and net income attributable to common shareholders of SEK 1,420,000,000 over the same period.

On the balance-sheet side, Husqvarna reported total cash of SEK 3,460,000,000 and a total debt-to-equity ratio of 53.91 percent, while levered free cash flow over the trailing twelve months stood at SEK 1,440,000,000 per the same data set, indicating that the company combines moderate leverage with positive free cash generation.

Earnings trends and margin profile

The earnings trends section on Yahoo Finance shows that in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026 Husqvarna generated revenue of SEK 14,380,000,000 and earnings of SEK 1,030,000,000, corresponding to a profit margin of 7.16 percent for that quarter.

Profitability metrics over the trailing twelve months put Husqvarna’s overall profit margin at 3.16 percent, return on assets at 3.12 percent and return on equity at 5.64 percent, illustrating that while quarterly margins have been higher in recent periods, the full-year picture still reflects relatively modest returns.

Shareholder returns and risks around the launch

Despite the recent product launch, the long-term return record described by Simply Wall St shows that Husqvarna’s 3-year total shareholder return is down 52.24 percent and the 5-year total shareholder return is down 63.73 percent, even as new high-spec products such as the AutoTune equipped 450X Rancher have been introduced to support the long-term story.

The same analysis cautions that the rerating narrative around Husqvarna, which assumes faster earnings growth, higher margins and continued expansion in battery-powered and robotic outdoor equipment, faces key risks if weak North American demand persists or if low-cost robotics competitors continue to force deeper price cuts, potentially pressuring both revenue growth and profitability.

Dividend yield and upcoming dates

Per Yahoo Finance, Husqvarna’s forward dividend is SEK 1.50 per share with a forward dividend yield of 3.95 percent based on the current share price, and the next expected ex-dividend date is October 19, 2026.

The same source lists October 21, 2026 as the upcoming earnings date, which currently appears as the next scheduled reporting event in Husqvarna’s calendar and will give investors an updated view on whether the new 400 series chainsaws and broader electrified product mix are translating into the revenue and margin improvements assumed in fair value estimates.

Husqvarna stock below fair value estimate

Against this backdrop, Husqvarna stock is trading materially below the SEK 43 fair value level referenced by Simply Wall St while also sitting closer to the lower end of its 52-week price range, which for investors means the product-driven story around robotics and electrification is being tested in a valuation environment that still prices in the multi-year share price decline.
