Investor AB B (ISIN SE0015811963) was trading at EUR 37.51 at Lang & Schwarz on October 14, 2026 at 1:29 p.m. CEST. The investment group backed a planned split of Mölnlycke into two companies on September 16, 2026, according to Cision. The combination of a portfolio restructuring and a near-term results date gives the stock a clear event calendar.
What does the split change?
Patricia Industries, Investor AB's owner of Mölnlycke, supports separating Operating Room Solutions and Gloves into a new company called Mölnlycke Surgical. Wound Care and Antiseptics would remain in Mölnlycke. The separation is expected during 2027, subject to customary approvals, while both businesses would remain under Patricia Industries ownership, Cision reported on September 16, 2026.
The planned structure separates two businesses with different operating profiles. In 2025, Wound Care and Antiseptics generated EUR 1.3 billion in net sales and an EBITDA margin of 38 percent, while Operating Room Solutions and Gloves generated EUR 0.8 billion and an EBITDA margin of 11 percent, according to the company release.
How strong were second-quarter results?

Operating profit reached SEK 117.85 billion in the second quarter, versus SEK 32.03 billion in the first quarter, according to Affärsvärlden.
