EPS trend backs profit focused story

  • Basic EPS has moved from 3.37 SEK in Q1 2025 to 4.61 SEK in Q2 2026, while trailing 12 month EPS reached 16.07 SEK alongside net income of SEK240.6 million.
  • What is interesting for a bullish view is that this steady EPS climb sits next to 21.1% trailing earnings growth and a 10.6% net margin, which together point to profit coming through the income statement rather than being diluted by weaker profitability.
    • Bulls who focus on MedCap as a way to gain broad exposure to Nordic healthcare companies can point to this 21.1% earnings growth alongside rising EPS as evidence that the existing portfolio has been converting revenue into profit consistently.
    • At the same time, the small step up in net margin from 10.4% to 10.6% means the bullish case is grounded in earnings quality and not just top line expansion, which fits the story of a specialist owner improving underlying businesses.

Revenue climb to SEK619.3 million fits MedCap’s healthcare theme

  • Quarterly revenue has moved from SEK498.3 million in Q1 2025 to SEK619.3 million in Q2 2026, while on a trailing 12 month basis revenue has shifted from SEK1.84 billion to SEK2.27 billion.
  • Supporters of a bullish narrative often highlight MedCap as a diversified way into healthcare and assistive technology, and the rise in trailing 12 month revenue alongside 7.7% expected annual revenue growth provides numbers that can be used to argue that the underlying portfolio is adding sales while still maintaining a double digit margin.
    • The combination of SEK2.27 billion in trailing revenue and SEK240.6 million of net income shows that revenue scale has been accompanied by profitability, which helps bullish investors who care about more than just top line size.
    • Expected revenue growth of 7.7% per year compared with a Swedish market forecast where revenue is expected to decline 1.6% gives bulls a relative context, as MedCap’s portfolio companies are projected to expand sales faster than the broader market benchmark they are often compared with.

Valuation and margins line up for MedCap

  • MedCap’s P/E of 35x sits below both the peer average of 50.8x and the Global Life Sciences industry average of 38.7x, while trailing net margin stands at 10.6% with earnings growth of 21.1% and a DCF fair value of SEK675.28 against a share price of SEK560.
  • Supporters of the bullish side of the story can point out that this mix of profit margin and valuation metrics heavily supports the idea of a company where current pricing has not fully caught up with the earnings profile, but they also need to weigh that against their own risk work because no company specific risk items were provided here.
    • The roughly 17.1% gap between the DCF fair value of SEK675.28 and the current price of SEK560, alongside a P/E that is lower than both peers and the wider industry, is the core of that bullish valuation talking point.
    • At the same time, the 14.2% expected annual earnings growth that sits on top of a 10.6% net margin gives bulls extra support for a profit centered thesis, yet without explicit risk flags in the data, cautious investors may want to investigate portfolio concentration, healthcare regulation or private equity style leverage on their own.
