Handelsbanken reiterates its Buy rating with a price target of USD 145 for automotive safety company Autoliv, according to a recent analysis.
The bank expects a record number of launches of new car models to drive sales growth of 6 percent in 2027. Adjusted operating profit is expected to increase by 21 percent and the operating margin to reach 12 percent.
Growth is also supported by market share gains in China and increased safety content in India. However, Handelsbanken lowers its earnings forecasts for 2026 and 2027 by around 2 percent.
Strong cash flow and continued share buybacks are expected to provide additional support.
