Teqnion AB (publ)

“Teqnion is an early-stage version of the blue-chip Nordic serial acquirers (Lagercrantz, Lifco), with a founder-led management team owning ~20% of shares, a proven acquisition engine generating 20-25% ROIIC into a structurally vast Nordic SME target pool, and clean financials. The business quality is genuinely strong. However, at SEK 162.60 (28x trailing earnings, ~16-17x EV/EBITA), the current price is fair — not cheap — offering a 10-year return of approximately 2.5-3.5x in the base case, which is acceptable but insufficient for high-conviction deployment. The primary permanent-loss risk is acquisition discipline failure as scale grows, which remains manageable but real. Track for entry at SEK 125-140 where risk/reward becomes compelling.”
