Securitas stock (ISIN SE0000163594) traded at SEK 152.70 on September 17, 2026, while a consensus page published by Zonebourse put the average target at SEK 167.57, or 9.74 percent above the last close. The same page listed 14 analysts and a consensus recommendation of Hold on September 17, 2026.

Security-tech mix matters

According to MarketScreener, the first half showed that security technology and solutions accounted for 35 percent of sales and 54 percent of operating profit. That gap is the core message for investors: the higher-margin mix is doing more work than the sales split alone suggests.

On the same day, Placera reported that the adjusted operating margin rose to 7.3 percent and earnings per share increased 11 percent. That combination gives the stock a simple frame: profitability is improving faster than the top line mix.

Stock stays near SEK 153

Another Placera item showed Securitas B at SEK 152.30, down 0.26 percent on September 17, 2026. The stock therefore stayed close to the consensus level, with the gap to the SEK 167.57 target still measuring 10.02 percent.
