General analysis — not personal advice.
Maintain; consider adding if Q2 shows continued organic growth (especially in North America) and sustained/improving EBIT margin, or on attractive valuation post ex-div.
Q3 showed margin improvements but weak organic growth and North America pressure support maintaining HOLD signal pending clearer development.
Sentiment remains mildly positive after margin improvements, yet the market reacted negatively to the lower-than-expected organic growth and weakness in North America.
HOLD is the call. Positive is the market mood. Medium risk means some things can go wrong.

Thule Group AB (publ) designs and sells premium products for active lifestyles and transport, including roof boxes, bike carriers, strollers, and bags. The company remains profitable but has seen weak organic growth, while new categories (e.g., dog transportation) and the Quad Lock acquisition are expected to support future growth. The next key data point is the Q1 report on 29 April 2026.
Bull case
Europe growth and new product categories such as Active with Kids & Dogs drive organic development with improved margins.
Bear case
North America remains weak and macro uncertainty may dampen demand for discretionary goods.
Why this signal
Q3 showed margin improvements but weak organic growth and North America pressure support maintaining HOLD signal pending clearer development.
