The CoMinVi contract comes after a strong run for Sandvik, with the share price up 29.52% year to date and a 1 year total shareholder return of 72.88%. However, the recent 7 day share price decline of 5.08% and slightly weaker 90 day share price return of 1.59% suggest momentum has cooled in the short term.

After Sandvik’s sharp share price run and with the new CoMinVi order in hand, the stock now sits close to analyst price targets. Does the current valuation still leave enough upside to justify the risk?
On the most followed fair value view, Sandvik's last close of SEK390.9 sits slightly above the narrative estimate of SEK383.95, which frames the stock as only modestly stretched.
Sandvik is benefiting from strong market momentum in its Mining segment, particularly in regions like Australia and South America, which could drive future revenue growth. The company's launch of electrification and automation-ready products in mining and new product introductions in software are likely to enhance market position and boost future revenue.
Curious what sits behind that premium price tag? This narrative leans on compounding revenue gains, thicker margins and a future earnings multiple that assumes real staying power. The exact mix of those inputs is what investors will want to scrutinise.
Result: Fair Value of SEK383.95 (OVERVALUED)
