Bufab AB ( (SE:BUFAB) ) just unveiled an update.
Bufab AB reported a solid start to 2026, with first-quarter net sales rising 1.7 percent to SEK 2,222 million and organic growth of 2.2 percent, as order intake slightly exceeded sales. Gross margin improved to 32.9 percent and adjusted operating margin (EBITA) strengthened to 15.3 percent, while earnings per share increased to SEK 1.09, indicating enhanced profitability despite modest topline growth.
The improved profitability was supported by tighter cost control, as operating expenses rose more slowly than gross profit, and by robust cash generation, with operating cash flow up 22.6 percent to SEK 201 million and cash conversion at 58 percent. Net debt to EBITDA edged down to 2.4, underlining a stable balance sheet that provides financial flexibility, and the stronger margins and order trends suggest Bufab is consolidating its competitive position early in the year to support continued performance across its industrial customer base.
