Focus today is directed toward interim reports from Lundin Mining, Lundin Gold, and Skanska, the capital markets day of hygiene and health company Essity, and the tech firm Silex Microsystems, which begins trading on Nasdaq Stockholm. Furthermore, the Riksbank will announce its interest rate decision at 09:30.

Hygiene and health company Essity is reiterating its financial targets at its capital markets day. This implies annual organic sales growth exceeding 3 percent and an EBITA margin, excluding IAC, exceeding 15 percent.

Essity is also initiating a strategic review of its Consumer Tissue global business area. According to the company, the review may lead to a divestment or separation of the business, although no decision has been made. Consumer Tissue generated sales of SEK 43.5 billion last year, corresponding to 31 percent of Essity's net sales.

The initial public offering of tech company Silex Microsystems was several times oversubscribed. The company gains 14,000 new shareholders. The stock begins trading on Nasdaq Stockholm today. The subscription price was pre-determined at SEK 81 per share.

Mining company Lundin Gold reports record-high free cash flow and net earnings for the first quarter, driven by high gold prices and stable operations at the Fruta del Norte mine. The company is simultaneously raising its quarterly dividend to USD 1.21 per share (1.15), consisting of a fixed dividend of USD 0.30 and a variable dividend of USD 0.91 per share.

Sector peer Lundin Mining's adjusted EBITDA came in slightly lower than analysts' expectations, while revenue was in line with consensus. The company reiterates its 2026 full-year outlook regarding production, cash costs, and capital expenditures.

Construction company Skanska reports revenue and operating profit for the first quarter of 2026 that were lower than analysts' expectations.

Forest industry company Stora Enso's adjusted operating profit in the first quarter came in significantly higher than consensus.

Communication services company Sinch reports a better-than-expected first-quarter report, regarding both revenue and earnings. CEO Laurinda Pang intends to step down from her post. She will remain in the role until a successor has been appointed, though no later than December 31.

Credit management company Intrum is raising SEK 7.5 billion in new capital, divided into SEK 1.5 billion through a directed share issue and a rights issue of SEK 6 billion.

Fiber communications company Hexatronic has completed a directed share issue providing gross proceeds of SEK 600 million. The issue was initially intended to be SEK 550 million but was increased by SEK 50 million due to being oversubscribed. The subscription price of SEK 38 represents a discount of 8.2 percent against the latest closing price.
