Pareto reiterated its Buy recommendation for SKF and set a SEK 305 price target on September 14, 2026, according to Zonebourse. Against the Nasdaq Stockholm price of SEK 273.70 on October 13, 2026, that target is 11.44 percent higher. The euro quote was EUR 24.51 at Lang & Schwarz on October 13, 2026 at 2:35 p.m. CEST, up 0.33 percent on Nasdaq Stockholm versus October 12, 2026.
Pareto target stays above SEK 300
The target gives SKF a measurable valuation marker rather than a broad sector call. Pareto's recommendation followed a meeting with SKF's chief executive and investor-relations head, while the research note said demand was improving slightly and volumes remained below prior records, according to Zonebourse's September 14, 2026 report.
SKF makes bearings, seals and lubrication systems for industrial and automotive customers. The company is organized around Industrial and Automotive operations, giving the stock exposure to factory investment, vehicle production and maintenance spending.
