→ Summary Robust earnings growth in a gradually improving market
The Group reported increased revenue, higher
earnings and strong cash flow during the third quarter, driven primarily by a positive performance in the Industry business area, with organic growth and earnings improvements as well as significant contributions from acquired businesses in both business areas. The organic sales trend was marginally positive overall, with a good performance in the Swedish market.

→ President’s statement We are strengthening our model for continued profitable growth The business climate in our core markets in the Nordic countries continued to improve during the third quarter of the year with increased demand, primarily in Sweden. The Group reported higher revenue and earnings as well as strong cash flow, supported by a slight improvement in underlying sales, higher gross margins and significant contributions from acquired businesses. At the same time, we are now taking the next step in our development with a new Group structure and a further refined Momentum model that strengthens the opportunies for continued profitable growth and for reaching our goal of once again doubling our earnings from SEK 340 million to SEK 680 million by the end of 2030.
Market and earnings performance
The market conditions improved overall, with variations
between different customer segments and geographic markets. Above all, we noted increased demand in Sweden, with positive trends in the mining industry and a gradual improvement in the automotive industry. The service operations also performed well, while activity levels in the paper and pulp sector remained low. The Danish market continued to be dominated by weak demand.
The slight improvement in underlying sales, combined
with higher gross margins and a continued broad focus on cost control and streamlining, enabled higher earnings and improved margins. Acquired businesses also contributed positively to both revenue and earnings. Our companies are continuing to adapt their operations to the prevailing market conditions, while at the same time we are investing in sales promotion and customer-facing activities.
New Group structure for profitable growth
Momentum Group has grown significantly in recent years, and our organisation and work methods must also develop as the Group expands and diversifies. That is why, as an important step in Momentum Group 3.0, we are introducing a new Group structure starting on 1 January 2027, with the current two business areas and four business units being replaced with three business areas: Power Transmission, Industrial Solutions, and
Process Technology.
This new structure creates better conditions for business development, acquisitions and operational improvements through clearer responsibilities, more efficient business support and resource allocation. These business areas will have more distinct roles as active owners tasked with supporting, challenging and developing their companies. At the same time, the companies will retain full responsibility for their customers, markets and earnings. We will thereby strengthen our active ownership without compromising on the strong decentralisation and entrepreneurship that are the foundation of our business model. From dual engine to four mutually reinforcing engines In parallel, we are continuing to develop the Momentum model, built around four mutually reinforcing engines: the company building engine, the entrepreneurship engine, the acquisitions engine and the capital engine. Combined, these engines enhance our capacity to systematically develop companies and business leaders, complete successful acquisitions and invest capital where it will generate the greatest long-term value. Using clear principles, shared approaches and a continual exchange of experiences, we will build structural capital and a more scalable platform for profitable growth while maintaining decentralised responsibility for earnings.
Outlook
Market conditions remain somewhat challenging, but we
are seeing a gradual improvement in demand in a growing number of customer segments. Our companies remain focused on the areas that they can influence themselves through close customer relationships, cost control, streamlining and active marketing efforts. Our goal remains the same: to once again double our EBITA by the end of 2030. With our refined business model, strong cash flow and a controlled balance sheet, we are well positioned to continue to develop our companies and complete value-generating acquisitions and investments that over time will enable higher profit and increased earnings per share.

Sales performance
Comments on the market
Overall, the business climate in the Group’s core markets in the Nordic countries developed positively during the quarter. Above all, demand in Sweden increased in a growing number of customer segments. Service sales also performed well, with good capacity utilisation, primarily due to scheduled maintenance stops. Activity levels in paper and pulp remained low, and a broad focus on costs among these customers led to postponed service work and lower product sales. Both business areas in the Danish market delivered a weak performance, mainly due to lower project sales following the completion of a number of major projects during the third quarter of last year. Demand in Finland and Norway was stable. However, revenue in Norway was negatively impacted during the quarter by certain delays in product deliveries. The business climate has gradually improved during the year, but as in previous quarters, differences between customer segments continued to be seen. The performance in the mining industry was positive and a gradual improvement was noted in the automotive industry, while paper and pulp remained sluggish. Signs of a cautious recovery in project sales were also noted. Purchase prices for some product types continued to rise, in part due to the situation in the Middle East. The
Group’s companies maintained a good delivery capacity
and price discipline, with generally improved gross margins. The market climate for Nordic industry – and thus many of the Group’s customers – gradually improved. At the same time, uncertainties persist both globally and in our local markets, and customers are expected to continue to display a certain degree of caution. The Group’s companies are responding to this trend by maintaining their focus on cost control, streamlining, price adjustments and efforts to promote sales. The current situation has not led to any changes in material bases of judgement compared with those applied in the annual report for 2025.
Performance in the third quarter of 2026
Sales for comparable units were slightly positive during the quarter. In the Industry business area sales for comparable units increased by 5 per cent, primarily driven by strong performance in Sweden and increased demand from the engineering industry. In Infrastructure corresponding sales decreased by 4 per cent, impacted by slightly weaker performance in Norway and Denmark and continued subdued demand in certain customer segments. In total, revenue increased by 8 per cent to SEK 805 million (746), of which acquisitions contributed SEK 52 million. The quarter included 0.5 more trading days than last year, weighted by the Group’s geographical distribution.

Operations
Sales in Power Transmission increased overall during the
quarter, with good growth in the mining and automotive industries and a stable to positive trend in several other customer segments. The exception was paper and pulp, where demand decreased. Combined with improved gross margins, the increase in sales contributed to a positive earnings performance.
Sales in Specialist increased organically during the
quarter, with a positive performance in most companies. The Danish market continued to be characterised by low activity levels and restrained investment decisions. Earnings improved as a result of organic sales growth and continued cost control. Acquired businesses contributed revenue of SEK 23 million and had a strong impact on earnings.

→ Infrastructure business area
Offers products, services and solutions to critical industrial infrastructure. The companies are mainly resellers and service providers, with the ability to deliver complete and customised solutions. The focus is on secure operation, longer service life, increased efficiency and precise measurability. The business area comprises the Flow Technology and Technical Solutions business units.
Revenue Q3 2026, SEK million
Operations
In Flow Technology, sales for comparable units declined during the quarter, primarily as a result of lower volumes in Norway and continued weak demand in Denmark. The sales trend in Sweden was positive, and improvements were also noted in parts of the Finnish operations. Lower sales levels impacted earnings negatively, but were offset in part by positive effects from cost adjustments implemented in
Denmark. Acquired businesses contributed revenue of SEK
21 million and had a strong impact on earnings.
Sales in Technical Solutions improved gradually during
the quarter, partially as a result of scheduled maintenance work. Demand remained cautious in parts of the operations, primarily from customers in paper and pulp. Improved gross margins enabled a positive earnings performance. Acquired businesses contributed revenue of SEK 8 million, with a positive impact on earnings. Financial performance in the third quarter of 2026 Revenue increased by 4 per cent to SEK 373 million (358) compared with the same quarter last year. Revenue for comparable units, measured in local currency and adjusted for the number of trading days, decreased by 4 per cent. EBITA increased by 10 per cent to SEK 55 million (50), corresponding to an EBITA margin of 14.7 per cent (14.0).

Profitability
The Group’s profitability, measured as the return on working capital (EBITA/WC), amounted to 59 per cent
- for the most recent 12-month period. The return on
equity for the same period was 24 per cent (25).
Cash flow for the period January–September 2026
Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital for the reporting period was SEK 290 million (256). Cash flow was impacted by paid tax of SEK –74 million (–68). In the reporting period, inventories decreased by SEK 11 million. Operating receivables increased by SEK 54 million and operating liabilities increased by SEK 16 million. Accordingly, cash flow from operating activities for the reporting period amounted to
SEK 263 million (190).
Cash flow from investing activities for the reporting period amounted to SEK –194 million (–250). Cash flow includes business combinations of SEK –169 million (–206), settlements of deferred payments regarding acquisitions of SEK –16 million (–32) and net investments in non-current assets of SEK –9 million (–12). Cash flow from financing activities for the reporting period, which amounted to SEK –73 million (129) was mainly attributable to the net change in interest-bearing liabilities of SEK 13 million (233), dividends paid of SEK –75 million (–66), of which SEK –6 million (–2) to non-controlling interests and a change in ownership in partly owned subsidiaries of SEK –11 million (–40) in connection with the exercise of call options. Cash flow for the comparative period was impacted by sales of own shares in connection with acquisitions of SEK 2 million. The Group’s financial net loan liability at the end of the reporting period was SEK 678 million, compared with SEK 571 million at the beginning of the year. At the end of the period, the Group’s operational net loan liability amounted to SEK 450 million, compared with SEK 344 million at the beginning of the financial year. The difference is largely attributable to cash flow from operating activities, dividends paid and acquisitions during the period. Cash and cash equivalents, including unutilised granted credit facilities, totalled SEK 860 million. The credit granted corresponds to the company's revolving facility of SEK 1,000 million with a maturity until 31 December 2028 with the possibility of a two-year extension. The credit granted consists of a credit facility totalling SEK 300 million with a maturity of one year (to be extended during the first quarter). Of the company’s revolving facility and committed credit facility, SEK 605 million and SEK 206 million , respectively, were unutilised at the end of the reporting period. In addition, the Group had available funds outside existing credit facilities of SEK 49 million. At the end of the reporting period, the Group had met all financial obligations to lenders. The equity/assets ratio at the end of the reporting period was 36 per cent (32). Equity per share totalled SEK 18.35 at the end of the reporting period, compared with SEK 16.35 at the beginning of the year. The balance sheet total at the end of the reporting period was SEK 2,534 million, compared with SEK 2,245 million at the beginning of the year. Acquisitions account for a large part of the change during the year, and the acquired assets and liabilities are presented in Note 4.

Transactions with related parties
No transactions having a material impact on the Group’s position or earnings occurred between Momentum Group and its related parties during the reporting period. The related-party transactions in place pertain primarily to lease expenses in acquired companies. These leases have been entered into on market terms. The remuneration of senior executives follows the guidelines established by the General Meeting.
Risks and uncertainties
Momentum Group’s earnings, financial position and
strategic position are impacted by a number of factors that are within the control of Momentum Group as well as a number of external factors. The most important external risk factors for Momentum Group are the economic and market situation for the industrial sector. Other risks include the competitive situation in the Group’s markets and the significance of efficient logistics with high accessibility, in which the accessibility of the Group’s logistics centres are important for certain flows of goods, as well as a dependence on identifying and developing relationships with qualified suppliers. The Group’s opportunities and risks also include the completion of acquisitions and related capital requirements and the intangible surplus value that this can result in. Cyberrelated risks are also considered important. The future trend in the market and in demand may be impacted by the challenging security situation. Delivery times and the availability of components as well as rising prices, interest rates and inflation could also impact market conditions. The Parent Company is impacted indirectly by the above risks and uncertainties through its function in the Group.
Events after the end of the period
After the end of the quarter Polymore, a specialist in polymer dosing equipment with a focus on water and wastewater treatment, was acquired. As of 1 January 2027, the business will be divided into three business areas: Power Transmission, Industrial Solutions and Process Technology.

- Accounting policies
The Interim Report for the Group was prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and applicable parts of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and, for the Q2 report, also the Swedish Securities Market Act. In addition to the financial statements and associated notes, other disclosures in accordance with IAS 34.16A are also presented in other parts of the report. The Interim Report for the Parent Company was prepared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and for the Q2 report also the Swedish Securities Market Act, which conforms to the provisions detailed in RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities. The same accounting policies and bases of judgement as in the annual report for 2025 have been applied. IASB has issued additions and amendments to standards that will take effect for the Group on or after 1 January 2026. These additions and amendments are deemed not to be material for the consolidated financial statement.
Parent Company accounting policies
The Parent Company applies the Swedish Annual Accounts Act (1995:1554) and recommendation RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities issued by the Swedish Financial Reporting Board. RFR 2 stipulates that the Parent Company, in the annual accounts for the legal entity, is to apply all IFRS and statements adopted by the EU to the greatest extent possible within the framework of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and with due consideration given to the relationship between accounting and taxation. The recommendation states which exceptions/additions should be made from/to IFRS. Combined, this results in differences between the Group’s and the Parent Company’s accounting policies in the primary areas of subsidiaries, leased assets, taxes, Group contributions and shareholder contributions.
- Financial instruments
Momentum Group measures financial instruments at fair value or amortised cost in the balance sheet depending on their classification. In addition to items in financial net debt, financial instruments also include accounts receivable and accounts payable. The carrying amount of all of the Group’s financial assets is deemed to be a reasonable approximation of their fair value. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value comprise hedging instruments for which fair value is based on observable market data and which are therefore included in level 2 according to IFRS 13 and liabilities for contingent purchase considerations that are measured using discounted cash flow and which are thus included in level 3.
The accounting policies for the Group and the Parent Company are published in full in the annual report for 2025.

Acquisition analysis – business combinations with closing during the period The total purchase consideration for the acquisitions was SEK 203 million, excluding acquisition costs. Acquisition costs totalling approximately SEK 1 million were recognised in the item other operating expenses. In accordance with the preliminary acquisition analysis presented below, SEK 95 million of the purchase consideration has been allocated to goodwill and SEK 71 million to customer relationships. The allocation to customer relationships is based on the discounted value of future cash flows attributable to each asset class, where an assessment was conducted that included margin, tied-up capital and turnover rate of the customer base, among other things. Goodwill on the acquisition date refers to the amount by which the cost of the acquired net assets exceeds their fair value. Goodwill is motivated by the anticipated future sales performance and profitability as well as the fact that the subsidiaries’ position in their current markets is expected to be strengthened. The fact that the acquisition analysis is considered to be preliminary is mainly due to the fact that only a short period of time has elapsed since the acquisitions were completed. Impact on the Group's cash and cash equivalents In addition to the acquisitions completed during the reporting period, cash flow from the acquisition of subsidiaries has also been affected by the settlement of deferred payments of SEK 16 million.
Of recognised goodwill of SEK 95 million, none is expected to be tax deductible. Non-controlling interest is calculated as the proportional share of the identified net assets. Contingent purchase considerations is recognised at a value corresponding to some 64 per cent in average of a maximum outcome. The outcome of the contingent purchase considerations will be determined continuously during 2026-2028 and is dependent on the earnings of the acquired subsidiaries. The potential undiscounted amount to be paid amounts to approximately SEK 30 million. The deferred payment will be settled in 2027 and 2028.

→ Performance measures Momentum Group uses certain financial performance measures in its analysis of the operations and their performance that are not defined in accordance with IFRS. Momentum Group believes that these alternative performance measures provide valuable information for the company’s Board of Directors, owners and investors, since they enable a more accurate assessment of current trends and the company’s performance when combined with other performance measures calculated in accordance with IFRS. Since not all listed companies calculate these financial performance measures in the same way, there is no guarantee that the information is comparable with other companies’ performance measures of the same name. Hence, these financial performance measures must not be viewed as a replacement for those measures calculated in accordance with IFRS.
