Boliden (OM:BOL) Heads Into Q3 Report With Fair Value Still In Question

Simply Wall St · 1d ago

Boliden (OM:BOL) is heading into a busy period, with its third quarter 2026 interim report due on Thursday 29 October, and a same day press and analyst conference set to unpack the numbers.

Recent trading has been choppy, with a 1-day share price return of 4.76% and 7-day share price return of 5.12% partly offsetting a 30-day share price return that declined 4.38%. The 1-year total shareholder return of 38.59% and 5-year total shareholder return of 99.94% point to momentum that has been building over a longer horizon as investors respond to Boliden’s operational updates and governance moves such as the newly formed Nomination Committee for the 2027 AGM.

Scan how Boliden’s setup compares with other potential metal producers that are gearing up for their own catalysts by running your filters against our curated 16 top copper producer stocks list.

The share price has sprinted ahead over the past year, yet Boliden still trades only slightly below the consensus target, while our intrinsic estimate implies a far wider gap. Where does fair value really sit?

Most Popular Narrative: 100% Undervalued

On the most followed view of Boliden, the fair value of SEK551.47 sits only a touch above the last close at SEK546.20. Yet the same framework behind that estimate also supports an intrinsic value of SEK1,080.92 based on projected cash flows discounted at 7.27%.

The Odda green zinc smelter expansion is on track with ramp-up in H2 2025 and full contribution expected in 2026, leveraging stricter environmental standards and demand for low-carbon metals in Europe. This should improve both revenue growth and net margins due to potential premium pricing.

See why 38 investors see Boliden as 1% undervalued.

Result: Fair Value of SEK551.47 (UNDERVALUED)

Still, the narrative around Boliden can shift quickly if lower ore grades persist at key mines or if treatment charges for copper and zinc remain severely depressed and continue to squeeze smelter profitability.
