Winston Score

Winston is worried

Weak fundamentals across most pillars.

Winston Score below 40. The stock fails on most of our quality checks.

Wästbygg Gruppen is a Swedish construction company that builds residential homes, commercial properties, and public buildings. Its customers include property developers, municipalities, and private businesses across Sweden. The company focuses on contracting work — meaning it gets hired to construct projects designed by others — and also develops some properties on its own account.

Wästbygg earns money primarily through fixed-price and cost-plus construction contracts, where it charges clients for completing building projects. It operates mainly in Sweden, with a market capitalization of roughly $0.1 billion, making it a small player in a fragmented Nordic construction market. The financial data tells a difficult story: negative gross and operating margins suggest the company is currently losing money on its projects, likely due to cost overruns, inflation in materials and labor, or weak contract pricing — a persistent risk in fixed-price construction that the company will need to manage carefully to return to profitability.
