Kepler lifts its target
According to MarketScreener, Kepler Cheuvreux raised its target for Investor from SEK 403 to SEK 443 on October 21, 2026, while reiterating a hold recommendation.

Three events shape the picture
Investor reported adjusted net asset value of SEK 1,258 billion in the third quarter of 2026, up 4 percent from the second quarter. Its adjusted net asset value per share reached SEK 411, compared with SEK 397 in the previous quarter, according to MarketScreener. On October 16, Investor also reported SEK 11,899 million in profit after tax for the quarter, compared with SEK 59,814 million a year earlier.
The chronology is clear: on October 16, 2026, adjusted net asset value reached SEK 1,258 billion, up 4 percent quarter over quarter; on October 19, SEB raised its target to SEK 425 from SEK 417; and on October 21, Kepler Cheuvreux raised its target to SEK 443 from SEK 403. These figures point to stronger asset values alongside a more cautious stance on the share price.
What does NAV growth mean?

Major Patricia subsidiaries posted 7 percent organic sales growth and 26 percent adjusted EBITA growth in the third quarter, according to Investing.com.
