Pareto Securities preliminarily expects to cut its forecast for defense technology company W5 Solutions’ adjusted EBIT for 2026 by 50–75 percent and raise its sales forecast by 4–10 percent.
The defense company issued a profit warning following a project delay that shifts around SEK 20 million of EBIT into the fourth quarter.
Pareto views recurring margin disappointments as signs of more structural challenges and assesses that the margin target for 2027 will not be reached before 2028.
