An announcement from Electrolux Professional AB ( ($SE:EPRO.B) ) is now available.
Electrolux Professional reported a 7.3% decline in fourth-quarter net sales to SEK 3.1 billion, largely driven by negative currency effects, but managed to lift its EBITA margin to 12.6% as strong European performance in both Food & Beverage and Laundry offset weaker demand in the US and parts of APAC-MEA. For 2025, organic growth was modest and underlying profitability improved despite significant headwinds from currency and tariffs, while the board proposed a higher dividend of SEK 0.95 per share and operating cash flow remained solid. Strategic initiatives included continued investment in new laundry and horizontal cooking platforms ahead of 2026 launches, an efficiency program expected to yield savings in 2026–27, and the acquisition of US cooking player Royal Range’s assets to broaden the US product offering and leverage Electrolux Professional’s sales network; governance continuity and renewal were signaled by the upcoming CEO transition from Alberto Zanata to Paolo Schira in May 2026. These moves collectively aim to reinforce the company’s competitive position, particularly in Europe and the US, bolster margins in a challenging macro environment, and support its sustainability-led value proposition for customers and shareholders.
The most recent analyst rating on ($SE:EPRO.B) stock is a Hold with a SEK64.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Electrolux Professional AB stock, see the SE:EPRO.B Stock Forecast page.
