Skanska B (ISIN SE0000113250) was trading at EUR 22.78 at Lang & Schwarz on October 8, 2026 at 12:32 p.m. CEST, down 3.15 percent versus the prior close of EUR 23.52. Yahoo Finance reported on October 6, 2026 that Skanska had signed a USD 138.00 million additional contract for a technology facility in the United States.
US contract enters third-quarter orders
The contract is with an existing client and is worth about SEK 1.30 billion. The work began in April 2026 and is scheduled for completion in the first quarter of 2028, while the booking is assigned to Skanska's US order intake for the third quarter of 2026, according to Yahoo Finance.
For investors, the contract adds another multi-year US technology project to Skanska's construction pipeline, but the source gives no project margin or client name. That limits what can be inferred about the contract's direct earnings contribution even as the order booking improves workload visibility.
Second-quarter figures show stronger earnings
Simply Wall St reported that second-quarter 2026 revenue rose 4.10 percent from the prior-year quarter to SEK 48.03 billion. Net income increased 53.00 percent to SEK 2.55 billion, and earnings per share reached SEK 6.17 compared with SEK 4.05 in the second quarter of 2025.
Order bookings reached SEK 68.00 billion in the second quarter, up 20.00 percent from the prior-year quarter, according to Simply Wall St. Skanska's investor page lists a 4.30 percent Construction operating margin on a rolling-12-month basis for the second quarter of 2026, alongside a 1.30 percent return on capital employed in Project Development and 10.80 percent return on equity.
Stock falls ahead of the next report
The latest move leaves the euro reference price 3.15 percent below the Lang & Schwarz prior close, while the operating picture combines higher orders with the execution demands of large, long-duration projects. MarketScreener lists November 4, 2026 as the next earnings release date and identifies the share as SKA B on Nasdaq Stockholm.
