What matters now
- A high-quality business (quality 70/100), yet the market already pays well above fair value. Quality at a full price, with little margin of safety.
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (kr 142.32). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- A fairly wide model range (kr 70.43 to kr 142.32) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

How to read this chart
60‑month range kr 85.95 – kr 211.50 · fair‑value band kr 70.43 – kr 142.32 · the kr 207.90 price screens above the kr 112.59 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 27, 2026.
Analysis
Atlas Copco AB (ATCO-A) currently trades at kr 207.90, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is kr 112.59, implying the stock looks roughly 45.8% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 70/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: high).
Over the trailing twelve months, Atlas Copco AB generated revenue of 166B SEK at a net margin of 15.7%. Revenue declined 5.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 22.4%. Net debt stands at 19.4B SEK. Fundamentals as of Aug 27, 2026
Our scenario range runs from kr 70.43 (bear case) to kr 142.32 (bull case); at kr 207.90, the current price sits above that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades near its 52-week high and 49% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -52% fair-value upside, at -46%, ATCO-A screens cheaper than that median.
Fair Value models
This estimate rests on fiscal year 2025 figures, and about 8 months have passed since. In that time the company retained roughly 0.31 SEK per share, which is 0.3 % of the fair value. The fair value deliberately does not add this in: the models value reported figures, not a projection.
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.
All 24 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (kr 113.89) versus Asset-Based (kr 15.15). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (77).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 69 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 71
Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.
All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
