Simply Wall St · 3d ago

Paradox Interactive (OM:PDX) has drawn fresh attention after announcing three upcoming titles at gamescom, including LEGO Skylines, Afterworld, and expanded multi platform plans for Transport Fever 3 with several edition tiers.

Paradox Interactive shares last closed at SEK142.7, and while the 90 day share price return of 8.93% hints at improving short term momentum, the total shareholder return has declined 16.4% over the past year and 43.72% over three years. Investors may see the latest gamescom announcements as an early test of whether sentiment is starting to turn.

The fair value of SEK154.4 for Paradox Interactive comes from growth and cash flow assumptions, yet the current P/E of 119.2x tells a different story. It is well above the Swedish Entertainment industry at 13x, the peer average at 50.9x, and the fair ratio of 42.3x, which suggests a high bar for future execution.
