Market sentiment
Sentiment has deteriorated materially after the Q1 disappointment and heightened ESG/customer-risk debate; Renewable Energy positives are not enough to offset the broader picture.
Why SELL ?
Downgrade to Reduce: Q1 confirms a weak cyclical backdrop with a sharp earnings decline and pressured margins, while ESG criticism from high-profile customers raises the risk of volume/price pressure and higher remediation costs. With the stock near a 52-week low there is a potential bottoming case, but risk/reward is weaker until pricing stabilises and customer exposure becomes clearer.
- Reduce/trim exposure (especially if position sizing is large) and wait for clearer evidence of price/margin stabilisation and that ESG/customer issues do not translate into material volume losses; keep only a core position if you have a long horizon and accept cyclical/ESG risk.
Recent News
- Since 2026-04-16, SCA released its Q1 report (2026-04-24) with net sales ~SEK 4,740m (-8% YoY) and EBITDA ~SEK 1,107m (-33% YoY), showing clear margin pressure from lower prices, negative FX and higher input costs. The share fell ~4% on the report day and traded around SEK 104–105 (near a 52-week low). At the same time, ESG-related criticism/claims of phase-out by major customers (incl. Nestlé and Zalando) increased focus on customer and reputational risk. Renewable Energy was a bright spot with record performance, but did not offset weakness in pulp/packaging/wood products.
Bull case
- **Q1 earnings** could show stronger margins if price hikes stick.
- **Announced price increases** in kraftliner/pulp may support profitability.
