59.1% margin and SEK 239m one off
- The trailing 12 month net profit margin sits at 59.1%, compared with 45.1% a year earlier, and includes a SEK 239 million one off gain that lifted reported profitability.
- Bears often focus on quality of profits, and this concern is supported here as the SEK 606 million trailing net income and SEK 3.94 EPS include that SEK 239 million gain, which means:
- The sharp 74.6% reported earnings growth over the past year is partly tied to a single item rather than only to recurring rental income.
- The higher margin level could look less robust once investors look through that gain and compare Fastighetsbolaget Emilshus with real estate peers that do not have similar boosts in the last 12 months.
Revenue up to SEK 1.0b but EPS mixed
- On a trailing basis, Fastighetsbolaget Emilshus reports SEK 1,026 million of revenue and SEK 3.94 of EPS, while quarterly EPS over the last six periods has moved within a SEK 0.52 to SEK 1.10 range as revenue rose from SEK 202 million in Q1 2025 to SEK 274 million in Q2 2026.
- What bullish investors might highlight is that revenue is forecast to grow about 5.7% per year and reported earnings grew 74.6% over the past year, but the pattern of quarterly EPS, from SEK 0.52 in Q2 2025 to between roughly SEK 0.93 and SEK 1.10 in the most recent four quarters, also shows:
- Top line progress is consistent with the SEK 718 million to SEK 1,026 million move in trailing revenue between early 2025 and Q2 2026, which fits a revenue growth story.
- At the same time, the forecast that earnings may decline about 12.5% per year over the next three years sits awkwardly alongside the recent EPS range, so bulls have to reconcile positive revenue expectations with a less supportive profit trend.
P/E of 15.2x versus SEK 54.60 price
- At a share price of SEK 54.60 and with trailing EPS of SEK 3.94, Fastighetsbolaget Emilshus trades on a P/E of 15.2x, compared with 20.2x for the Swedish market, 11.4x for the real estate industry, and a DCF fair value of SEK 19.85 cited in the data.
- Critics highlight valuation and balance sheet risks, and the numbers back up parts of that bearish angle because:
- The P/E of 15.2x is below the wider Swedish market but above the industry average and slightly above the peer average of 14.6x, so the stock is not the cheapest option within its sector based on these figures.
- Interest payments are described as not well covered by earnings, which, combined with a trading level well above the DCF fair value of SEK 19.85, gives bears concrete figures to point to when questioning how much safety is priced into SEK 54.60.
