    Swedencare rose slightly over the week while the broader market was roughly flat.

    The last session saw a clear rise against a clear market fall, on heavy trading.

    The main company news was Kristy Murphy being named interim CEO of NaturVet on Wednesday 4 November, after Geoff Granger stepped down.

    Short positions also fell over the period, which can ease pressure on a stock.

    Swedencare was roughly unchanged without a company-news explanation.

    In the last session, Swedencare moved less than OMX Stockholm 30, which fell slightly.

    The move was an ordinary size for Swedencare, within its usual daily range.

    Over the last five trading days, Swedencare was roughly unchanged while the market rose slightly.

    The share trades near its lowest close of the past year, well below its highest from early January.

  • −0.31% market +0.83% Swedencare was roughly unchanged, a move within its usual daily range. Read →

    Swedencare was roughly unchanged, a move within its usual daily range.

    The market rose clearly over the same day, so Swedencare lagged it.

    Swedencare named Kristy Murphy interim CEO of NaturVet, after Geoff Granger left the role with immediate effect.

    Over the last five trading days the shares were roughly unchanged, while OMX Stockholm 30 rose slightly.

    Her appointment is a leadership change, not a new sales or profit figure, so it is unlikely to have moved the share price much.

  • −3.55% market +3.01% Swedencare fell clearly over the week while the OMX Stockholm 30 index rose clearly, so it moved against the market. Read →

    Swedencare fell clearly over the week while the OMX Stockholm 30 index rose clearly, so it moved against the market.

    The main driver was its third-quarter report on 21 October, where growth and profit fell short of expectations and the company lowered its full-year growth ambition.

    Several analysts then cut their price targets, the share price they see as fair, on 22 October, which likely kept pressure on the shares.

    Over the same days, peer stocks in the sector rose, so the sector did not explain the fall.

  • −2.54% market +1.57% Swedencare fell, moving against a rising market as company news explains it. Read →

    Swedencare fell, moving against a rising market as company news explains it.

    Its share price fell hard over the last five trading days, a very big move for this stock.

    The most likely reason is the Q3 2026 earnings call, where organic growth was only 2%, a weak result that also raised doubts about the full-year growth target.

    Analysts cut their price targets after the report, adding to the pressure.

    Watch the next earnings report on Thursday 11 February 2027.

  • +2.28% market +0.41% Swedencare rose clearly, with no company news explaining the move. Read →

    Swedencare rose clearly, with no company news explaining the move.

    Over the same session, OMX Stockholm 30 rose slightly, so Swedencare moved more than the market.

    Over the last five trading days, Swedencare fell very sharply, while OMX Stockholm 30 fell sharply, a very big move for the stock.

    The main drag was the weak Q3 2026 report, which missed expectations, and several brokers cutting their price targets, the share prices they see as fair value.

    Next, watch the earnings report on Thursday 11 February 2027.

  • −16.53% market −3.67% Swedencare fell very sharply over the last five trading days, clearly more than the broader OMX Stockholm 30 index. Read →

    Swedencare fell very sharply over the last five trading days, clearly more than the broader OMX Stockholm 30 index.

    The drop was very big for the stock, rare in the past year.

    It followed weaker third-quarter results, with revenue growth slowing and profit below expectations.

    Several analysts cut their target prices, the share prices they see as fair, and kept their ratings.

  • +2.45% market −2.51% Swedencare rose sharply, against a falling market. Read →

    Swedencare rose sharply, against a falling market.

    Company news from that day explains the rise only partly: several analysts cut their target prices, the share price they see as fair, and Qube Research & Technologies stopped being a public short seller.

    Over the last five trading days the shares fell very sharply, a very big move for Swedencare, and the Stockholm index OMX Stockholm 30 fell clearly as well.

    Earnings from yesterday's quarterly report missed expectations, and the company lowered its full-year growth ambition, which likely weighed on the shares.

    Next, watch the full-year report due on 11 February 2027.

  • −20.17% market +0.17% Swedencare fell sharply after its Q3 report missed expectations. Read →

    Swedencare fell sharply after its Q3 report missed expectations.

    Against the market, OMX Stockholm 30 was roughly flat, so Swedencare's drop was company-specific.

    Revenue rose only 3%, and operational EBITDA (core operating profit before depreciation) fell 3%, below the expected 162 million SEK.

    The company also lowered its full-year growth ambition, which likely drove the sell-off.

    Over the last five trading days Swedencare fell very sharply, far more than the market's slight decline, a very big move for the stock.
