The latest update is out from Boliden AB ( (SE:BOL) ).
Boliden reported a strong fourth quarter of 2025, driven by higher metal prices—particularly for precious metals—and stable production across its mining and smelting operations. Operating profit excluding inventory revaluation rose to SEK 4,061 million from SEK 3,814 million, revenues increased to SEK 28,131 million, and mines delivered a record quarterly operating profit of SEK 3,174 million despite generally lower grades, supported by strong output at the Aitik mine and record copper cathode production at the Harjavalta smelter. For the full year, earnings per share declined to SEK 33.39 from SEK 36.65 and free cash flow turned negative due to high investment levels, while net debt increased and returns on capital and equity moderated; nevertheless, management highlighted improved operational stability, successful near-mine exploration at Garpenberg under a newly revised environmental permit, and the growing importance of precious metals, which account for about a third of group gross profit. Reflecting confidence in its financial position and long-term outlook, the board proposed an ordinary dividend of SEK 11.00 per share, underscoring Boliden’s message that the company enters 2026 in its strongest shape to date, with tailwinds from both market conditions and years of internal efficiency and productivity efforts.
The most recent analyst rating on (SE:BOL) stock is a Hold with a SEK640.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Boliden AB stock, see the SE:BOL Stock Forecast page.
