Essity stock closed at SEK 182.50 on Nasdaq Stockholm on September 18, 2026, down 0.8 percent from the prior session. The move came against a weaker market backdrop, with the OMX Stockholm 30 finishing 0.4 percent lower that day.
September 18, 2026 in numbers
Essity B (ISIN SE0009922164) ended the last session between SEK 181.20 and SEK 184.60, with the close sitting near the middle of that range. The stock also remained inside its 52-week band of SEK 165.00 to SEK 205.00, leaving it SEK 22.50, or 11.0 percent, below the high and SEK 17.50, or 10.6 percent, above the low.
According to ad hoc news, the share volume was about 1.2 million shares in that session. The same report linked the softer finish to the broader market tone, with Swedish equities easing alongside the benchmark index.
Today in Stockholm
Essity has no dated company event in the public calendar for today. The broader market backdrop still matters, because Nordic consumer staples often trade with moves in regional equity sentiment and rates expectations, and the S&P 500, Dow Jones and Nasdaq Composite all closed mixed on September 18, 2026, according to Mitrade.
