Adjusted EBIT reached SEK2,762 million, 1% above consensus expectations of SEK2,728 million. The Industrial division’s adjusted EBIT of SEK2,482 million exceeded forecasts by 1.3%, while Automotive’s SEK280 million fell slightly short by 0.7%.

The group’s EBIT margin came in at 12.3%, slightly ahead of the 12.2% consensus. Industrial margins stood at 15.5%, while Automotive margins were 4.3%.

Net cash flow from operations was SEK1,840 million, compared to SEK977 million in Q1 2025 and SEK2,817 million in Q2 2025.

SKF reconfirmed its guidance for Q4 2025, expecting organic sales to remain relatively unchanged year-over-year, while current consensus estimates project 1.6% growth.
