Assa Abloy stock (ISIN SE0007100581) traded at SEK 355.40 on Nasdaq Stockholm on September 24, 2026, down 0.48 percent from the previous close. The central operating signal is stronger: the group reported a record Q2 EBIT margin of 17 percent, according to Yahoo Finance.

Revenue accelerates in Q2

ASSA ABLOY reported Q2 2026 revenue of SEK 39.259 billion and operating income of SEK 6.680 billion in the company materials. The figures were linked to the Q2 report on the ASSA ABLOY investor relations page.

Compared with Q1 2026, revenue increased 9.8 percent from SEK 35.751 billion, while operating income rose 22.4 percent from SEK 5.459 billion. That gap matters because earnings grew faster than sales, pointing to operating leverage in the quarter.

Margin reaches a new high

The Q2 earnings call put the EBIT margin at 17 percent and the adjusted margin at 16.5 percent after one-time items. The same discussion cited an EBITDA margin of 18.1 percent, giving investors three separate measures of the quarter's profitability.

Acquisitions also remain part of the growth formula. ASSA ABLOY acquired Pacific Lock Company on September 16, 2026, according to MarketScreener. The transaction adds another US security hardware business to the group's access solutions portfolio.

Stock stays below yearly high

At SEK 355.40 on September 24, 2026, the stock stood 10.5 percent below its 52-week high of SEK 396.90 and 13.1 percent above its 52-week low of SEK 314.20. Its market capitalization was SEK 394,768,993,566 on the same date.

Analyst expectations moved higher before the current session. On September 18, 2026, MarketScreener reported that Barclays raised its price target from SEK 459 to SEK 467 and reiterated an Overweight rating. The target increase contrasts with the stock's current position below the yearly high and places valuation alongside margin execution as the key reading for the next results cycle.
