Winston Score

A decent business — some strong pillars, some weaker.

Winston Score between 40 and 70. The stock passes some quality checks but not all.

L E Lundbergföretagen is a Swedish investment holding company that owns large stakes in a collection of well-established Nordic businesses. Its portfolio includes major companies across real estate, construction materials, banking, and industrial manufacturing. The Lundberg family controls the company and has held these positions for decades, making it one of Sweden's most prominent family-controlled conglomerates.

The company makes money primarily through dividends and capital gains from its holdings, rather than selling products or services directly. It operates almost entirely in Sweden and the broader Nordic region, with its largest positions including stakes in companies like Industrivärden, Holmen, Husqvarna, and Hufvudstaden. Its main competitive advantage is its patient, long-term ownership style and the Lundberg family's deep relationships within Swedish industry. The key risk is that its stock value is closely tied to the performance of a relatively small number of large holdings, meaning a downturn in any one of them can have an outsized impact on the whole company.

Winston looking concerned
Revenue declining

L E Lundbergföretagen AB (publ)'s revenue is actually shrinking. In a growth stock, that removes the core investment thesis. The low Winston Score here may be warranted — unless there's a turnaround story.

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
