Alimak Holds Margin Line as Construction Slump Hits Q1 Orders

Alimak Group AB ( (SE:ALIG) ) has shared an announcement.

Alimak Group reported a softer first quarter of 2026, as weak construction markets and geopolitical tensions weighed on performance, pushing order intake down 11% and revenue down 5% year on year, while adjusted EBITA margin slipped to 16.7%. Despite lower earnings, the company achieved 3% organic revenue growth, maintained a solid book-to-bill ratio above 1, and saw strong contributions from its Industrial, Wind, Facade Access and Height Safety divisions, even as cash flow and construction equipment demand remained under pressure.

Management highlighted resilient execution of its New Heights strategy, continued investment in product development and sales, and active pursuit of value-accretive acquisitions supported by a modest leverage ratio of 1.85x EBITDA. With wind and industrial segments benefiting from electrification and infrastructure trends, and services and retrofit partially offsetting construction weakness, Alimak positions itself to strengthen long-term performance despite near-term volatility for customers, employees and shareholders.

The most recent analyst rating on (SE:ALIG) stock is a Buy with a SEK145.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Alimak Group AB stock, see the SE:ALIG Stock Forecast page.
