Invitation to Ferronordic’s investor presentation February 12, 2026

Ferronordic will publish its year‑end report for 2025 on 12 February 2026 at 07:30 CET, with a management presentation and Q&A at 10:00 CET led by CEO Henrik Carlborg and CFO Erik Danemar accessible via webcast or telephone (recording to follow). The announcement reiterates upcoming reporting and corporate calendar items (Q1 interim report and AGM scheduled for 13 May 2026) and notes Ferronordic’s dealer operations for Volvo CE, Volvo/ Renault Trucks and others across parts of the US, Germany and Kazakhstan, with 37 outlets and approximately 800 employees; investors should monitor the report for earnings, guidance and any management commentary that could move the Nasdaq Stockholm‑listed stock.

Analysis

Market structure: The immediate event is an investor presentation and FY2025 report for Ferronordic (listed on Nasdaq Stockholm) on Feb 12, 2026 — a classic event-driven liquidity point that primarily benefits active dealers, short-term derivatives traders and OEM counterparties (Volvo CE, Hitachi, Sandvik). Dealers with strong aftermarket/service revenue will gain pricing power if construction activity in the U.S. Midwest/South stays firm; conversely weaker small independent dealers and cyclical suppliers with stretched inventories are most exposed. Expect limited broader market impact beyond the Nordic industrials and emerging-market (Kazakhstan) exposure unless surprises on receivables/inventory appear.

Risk assessment: Tail risks include a negative surprise on receivables or inventory build (>€10–20m range would be meaningful for a ~€200–400m revenue dealer), renewed Russia/CIS sanctions affecting Kazakhstan operations, or a U.S. construction demand shock from Fed-driven recession. Immediate (days) risk is headline-driven volatility around Feb 12; short-term (1–3 months) risk is supply-chain parts delays and FX (SEK/KZT) swings; long-term (quarters) risk is structural shift to electrification impacting parts/service mix. Hidden dependencies: earnings quality tied to OEM spare-parts supply agreements and localized truck markets in Germany/Kazakhstan.

Trade implications: Direct: consider establishing a tactical 2–3% long position in Ferronordic ahead of Feb 12 to capture an event-driven move, paired with a 3-month protective put at ~90% of spot (stop-loss -15%, take-profit +20%). Options: if implied volatility rises >30% pre-report, buy a 3-month ATM call spread (buy ATM, sell 25% OTM) to cap cost and target 25–50% upside; if expecting a >15% binary move, buy a 1-week straddle around the release. Pair trade: long Ferronordic 2% vs short Volvo AB (VOLV-B) 1.5% to isolate dealer execution vs OEM cyclical exposure.

Contrarian angles: Consensus will treat the event as routine; that misses the recurring-service margin optionality — even a 1–2 percentage-point aftermarket margin improvement could lift EPS by mid-single digits over 12 months. Conversely, market may underprice Kazakhstan operational risk; a small negative surprise could push shares >15% lower intraday. Historical parallel: dealer networks outperformed in 2016–18 recovery phases; if macro stabilizes, Ferronordic could re-rate versus small-cap industrial peers over 6–12 months.

Key Decisions for Investors

• Establish a tactical long (2–3% portfolio weight) in Ferronordic (listed on Nasdaq Stockholm) before the Feb 12, 2026 report; hedge with a 3-month put at ~90% of spot. Trim position on a +20% move or cut on a -15% move.
• If implied volatility on Ferronordic options exceeds 30% pre-release, purchase a 3-month call spread (buy ATM, sell 25% OTM) sized to 1–2% portfolio exposure to capture upside while capping premium; if expecting a binary >15% move, buy a 1-week straddle around Feb 12 sized to <1% of portfolio risk.
• Implement a relative-value pair: long Ferronordic 2% vs short Volvo AB (VOLV-B) 1.5% to isolate dealer aftermarket execution; rebalance after the Feb 12 report and reassess at next quarter or if divergence >10% from expected EPS delta.
• Reduce or avoid direct exposure (>5% portfolio) to mid-cap suppliers with >30% revenue from Kazakhstan/Russia until Ferronordic discloses receivables and inventory quality; if Ferronordic flags >€10m receivable growth QoQ, tighten stop-losses and rotate into larger OEMs with diversified geographies.
