Electrolux delivered a stronger-than-expected third quarter on October 23, 2026, as revenue and adjusted operating income exceeded analyst forecasts. The report also raised the group's full-year cost-efficiency savings target, according to Investing.com.

Revenue and profit beat forecasts

Third-quarter revenue rose to SEK 33.919 billion from SEK 32.318 billion a year earlier, ahead of the cited consensus of SEK 33.486 billion. Adjusted operating income reached SEK 912 million, compared with analyst expectations of about SEK 840 million.

Organic sales growth was 3.5 percent, above the 1.4 percent forecast cited in the report. Electrolux said cost-efficiency programs helped offset higher raw-material and logistics costs as well as pressure from United States tariffs.

Savings target rises as outlook softens

Electrolux lifted its full-year cost-efficiency savings target to approximately SEK 4 billion from a previous range of roughly SEK 3.5 billion to SEK 4 billion. At the same time, the company changed its outlook for full-year volume, price and product mix to neutral from previously positive.

That combination leaves investors weighing operational progress against more cautious assumptions for sales conditions. Analyst views before the report included a SEK 29 price target from Handelsbanken, reduced from SEK 32, and a SEK 40 target from SB1 Markets, which maintained a Buy rating.
