An update from Boliden AB ( (SE:BOL) ) is now available.
Boliden reported a strong first quarter of 2026, with revenues rising to SEK 27.8 billion and operating profit reaching SEK 5.25 billion, supported by higher metal prices and solid performances in both its Mines and Smelters divisions. Free cash flow turned positive and earnings per share increased markedly, underlining improved profitability.
Operationally, the Aitik and Kevitsa mines delivered continued strong production and the smelters saw a significant year-on-year increase in gold and silver output, while the Odda zinc smelter began ramping up its expansion. However, abnormal seismic activity at the Garpenberg mine forced a SEK 700 million asset write-down, reduced volumes by SEK 400 million and led Boliden to sharply cut its 2026 volume guidance and lower its 2027 production outlook there, highlighting a key operational headwind despite otherwise robust group performance.
The most recent analyst rating on (SE:BOL) stock is a Hold with a SEK510.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Boliden AB stock, see the SE:BOL Stock Forecast page.
