The company's earnings are expected to grow by 16.9% annually, outpacing the Swedish market forecast of 14.1%. However, its dividend coverage is weak despite recent affirmations of a SEK6.50 per share annual payout.

Recent elections and dividend affirmations underscore stability in governance and shareholder returns.

The company's revenue growth is robust at 12% annually, surpassing the Swedish market average of 1.9%.
