â–²(7.60% Upside)
The score is driven primarily by strong underlying financial performance (healthy profitability, improving 2025 margins, and manageable leverage). Technicals support the uptrend, but overbought conditions raise near-term downside risk. A relatively high P/E and modest dividend yield weigh on the overall score.
Positive Factors
Diversified business model with recurring aftermarket
Sandvik's multi-segment model and a sizeable aftermarket service business create diversified, recurring revenue streams. This reduces reliance on single end-markets, supports stable margins and aftermarket-driven cash generation, and increases resilience across industrial cycles over months.
Sustained high margins and recent margin improvement
Robust gross margins (~40%) and improved 2025 operating/net margins reflect product mix, pricing power and higher-value materials/tooling. Sustained margins support durable profitability, funding R&D and aftermarket investments that underpin long-term competitive positioning and cash flow stability.
Strong free cash flow generation in 2025
Material free cash flow in 2025 and high FCF conversion versus net income provide durable internal funding for capex, R&D, and debt reduction. Strong cash generation enhances financial flexibility and supports investment in growth initiatives over the medium term.
Negative Factors
Cyclical demand and recent revenue volatility
Revenue and margin performance have shown cycle sensitivity, with a 2024 dip followed by a sharp 2025 rebound. This structural exposure to industrial cycles can compress margins and cash flow during downturns, requiring conservative capital allocation during weak phases.
Inconsistent cash conversion and working-capital swings
Operating cash conversion has varied materially, implying working-capital timing swings. This inconsistency can make near-term cash availability less predictable, complicating planning for capex, dividends, or debt repayment during periods of weaker sales.
Meaningful absolute debt exposure despite improving leverage
Leverage has improved, but absolute debt remains sizable (~40.7B). In a prolonged industry slowdown this debt burden could strain flexibility and require higher interest/capital servicing, limiting ability to invest or return capital without stronger cash generation.

Sandvik AB Business Overview & Revenue Model

Company DescriptionSandvik AB (publ) operates as an engineering company in the areas of mining and rock excavation, rock processing, manufacturing and machining, and materials technology in Sweden and internationally. The company offers mining and rock solutions, including drill rigs, underground loaders and trucks, rock drills and other tools, and parts and services, as well as digital and sustainability solutions; and rock processing applications, which include crushing, screening, feeding, breaking, demolition, and recycling. It also provides manufacturing solutions, comprising traditional metal cutting under the Sandvik Coromant, Walter, Wolfram, Seco, and Dormer Pramet brands; and manufactures tools and tooling systems for advanced metal cutting. In addition, the company develops and manufactures advanced stainless steels, powder-based alloys, and special alloys. It serves aerospace, automotive, construction, mining, general engineering, nuclear power generation, oil and gas, process, and renewable energy industries. The company was founded in 1862 and is headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden.
How the Company Makes MoneySandvik generates revenue through several key streams. The primary revenue stream comes from the sale of machinery and equipment in the Mining and Rock Solutions segment, which includes drilling rigs, crushers, and loaders. The Manufacturing and Machining Solutions segment contributes significantly through the sale of cutting tools, tool systems, and software for manufacturing processes. Additionally, Sandvik's Materials Technology division provides high-performance materials and components that serve various specialized industries. The company also benefits from a strong aftermarket business, providing maintenance services, spare parts, and technical support, which creates a recurring revenue model. Strategic partnerships with other companies and investments in research and development also enhance its competitive edge and contribute to long-term earnings growth.

Sandvik AB Financial Statement Overview

Summary
Overall financials indicate a high-quality industrial business: solid multi-year revenue growth with a strong 2025 rebound, consistently healthy margins (gross ~40% with improved operating and net margins in 2025), and manageable/improving leverage. Key constraint on the score is cyclical volatility (notably 2023–2024) and somewhat uneven cash conversion despite strong 2025 free cash flow.
Income Statement
78
Positive
Revenue has grown solidly from 2020 to 2025 despite a dip in 2024 (2025 growth rebounded to +25.8% after -2.9% in 2024). Profitability is consistently healthy for an industrial name, with gross margin holding around ~40% and operating profitability improving in 2025 (operating margin ~17.8% vs ~15.5% in 2024). Net margin also strengthened to ~12.2% in 2025 from ~10.0% in 2024. Key watch-out: earnings and margins have shown some year-to-year volatility (notably 2023→2024), suggesting cycle sensitivity.
Balance Sheet
74
Positive
Leverage looks manageable and improving, with debt-to-equity down to ~0.44 in 2025 from a higher ~0.64 in 2022. Equity remains sizable (~93B in 2025), supporting balance-sheet resilience. Returns on equity are attractive overall (~15.8% in 2025; peaked higher in prior years), though they have moderated from the stronger levels seen in 2021–2023. Main risk: debt is still meaningful in absolute terms (~40.7B in 2025), leaving the company somewhat exposed if industrial demand weakens.
Cash Flow
71
Positive
Cash generation is solid: free cash flow increased materially over time and was strong in 2025 (free cash flow ~16.1B; growth sharply positive vs prior year). Free cash flow is also broadly supported by earnings (about ~81% of net income in 2025). However, cash conversion has not been consistently strong across years, with operating cash flow relative to EBITDA remaining moderate and fluctuating (roughly ~0.24–0.55 range), implying working-capital or timing swings that can pressure near-term cash reliability.
