Hexagon (OM:HEXA B) Rebounds On Earnings As The Valuation Case Gets Harder To Ignore

Simply Wall St · 2d ago

Why Hexagon’s latest earnings matter for shareholders

Hexagon (OM:HEXA B) has investors’ attention after its 23 October quarterly update, which showed higher sales and a swing back to profit compared with the loss reported a year earlier.

Hexagon’s quarterly rebound has come alongside a clear shift in sentiment, with the share price delivering a 7.9% 7 day gain and a 17.6% 90 day share price return, while the 1 year total shareholder return of 15.7% and roughly flat 5 year total shareholder return suggest that recent momentum is picking up from a much slower longer term journey.

Scan how Hexagon’s rebound compares with other high quality businesses by reviewing our hand picked list of 200 high quality undervalued stocks that are poised for stronger sentiment shifts.

Hexagon’s sharp rebound has already rewarded holders, yet the share price still sits close to its estimated intrinsic value. Is most of the upside already reflected, or does the recent move leave meaningful room ahead?

Most Popular Narrative: 6% Overvalued

Hexagon last closed at SEK110.10, slightly above the most followed fair value estimate of SEK104.03. This estimate is based on a 7.1% discount rate and detailed analyst scenario work around growth, margins and cash generation.

Rising investment in humanoid robotics, with costs guided to about €50m in 2026 and expected to increase further, may take longer than anticipated to translate into meaningful humanoid or autonomy revenue. If commercial traction or pricing power disappoints, the drag on earnings and group return on investment could undermine the current valuation and pressure the share price.

See why 20 investors see Hexagon as 6% overvalued.

Result: Fair Value of SEK104.03 (OVERVALUED)

Still, Hexagon’s case relies heavily on cost discipline and stable demand, so any squeeze on margins or prolonged weakness in key end markets could quickly challenge this narrative.

Another View: What Hexagon’s P/E Is Telling You

The first fair value narrative points to Hexagon as roughly fully priced, yet the P/E picture looks different. At 10.3x earnings, the stock trades far below the European Electronic industry at 19.5x and well under its peer group on 28x, while only slightly above a 9.6x fair ratio. Is that a cushion or just thinner upside than it appears?
