New Customers / Segments They'Re Targeting: Sandvik is actively targeting new customer segments, particularly within its Machining business, where Medical & Electronics is highlighted as a strategically important segment with high growth potential. They are also expanding their reach in the mining industry by strengthening their aftermarket and digital offerings through acquisitions like ThoroughTec Simulation, which provides OEM-agnostic training simulators, addressing a skills gap in the industry. Additionally, the acquisition of K&Y Diamond enhances their capabilities in ultraprecision applications for high-growth segments such as optics, medical, and aerospace.
Supply Chain And Sourcing Geographies: The transcript highlights tungsten as a key raw material for Sandvik's cutting tools and powder business. Sandvik sources a portion of its tungsten, specifically 10% to 15%, from its own mine in Austria. The company also sources tungsten from China, noting a widening gap in tungsten prices between China and other markets. Sandvik emphasizes its secure supply chain for tungsten as a competitive advantage. Beyond tungsten, the transcript does not provide specific geographic details for the sourcing of other products or components.
Sales Geographies And Expansion Plans: Sandvik maintains a global sales presence. In Q1 2026, the company observed a strong recovery in infrastructure markets in both the U.S. and Europe. In Asia, the picture was mixed, with China being more muted while India showed strong growth. For its Machining business, general industry showed improvement across all regions, Aerospace & Defense was strong globally (though flattish in China), and Light vehicles experienced mixed performance (down in North America and China, strong in India, flattish in Europe). Intelligent Manufacturing reported its strongest growth in North America. The company's focus appears to be on leveraging growth within these existing regions and specific market segments rather than explicitly announcing plans to expand into entirely new geographic territories.
How Key Themes May Help/Hurt: The 'Atoms Bits Long '26: Mining Capex' theme is largely beneficial for Sandvik. The theme's premise of a capital rotation to physical materials and infrastructure, driven by AI's demand for power and materials, directly translates into increased mining capital expenditure. Sandvik, as a leading supplier of mining and rock excavation equipment, tools, and services, is well-positioned to capitalize on this. The transcript confirms a 'strong Mining market' with 'record high order intake' and 'double-digit organic order intake growth in equipment', fueled by favorable commodity prices, high production pace, and investments in digital and automation. The theme's bull points regarding fleet replacement, maintenance, and brownfield expansion align with Sandvik's reported strong aftermarket growth and brownfield strength. However, the theme's bear points, such as increasing operational complexity and a potential moderation in global GDP growth, could present challenges. While Sandvik's digital solutions aim to mitigate operational complexity, a broader economic slowdown could temper overall commodity demand, potentially impacting future mining capex and, consequently, Sandvik's order intake. The company acknowledges a 'continued uncertain geopolitical and macro environment.'

3 Main Long-Term Bull Details

Strong and Diversified Exposure to Critical Industrial Growth: Sandvik benefits from structural growth drivers in key industries, including mining (driven by demand for critical minerals for energy transition and AI infrastructure), advanced manufacturing (aerospace, medical, electronics), and infrastructure recovery. 2.

Sandvik is observing competitors facing raw material constraints, particularly with tungsten, leading customers to seek Sandvik as a reliable supplier, which may result in market share gains. While key competitors are following Sandvik's price increases, Sandvik's unique and secure supply chain provides a competitive advantage. The company notes that premium suppliers like Sandvik have a lower raw material cost share compared to mid-market providers, creating a favorable dynamic for Sandvik when raw material prices increase. There is a possibility that smaller cutting tool producers may find it increasingly difficult to secure material supply due to a physical shortage of tungsten.	The broader industry is experiencing strong demand across all business areas, with double-digit organic growth. The mining market shows continued strong momentum, high activity levels, and favorable commodity prices, driving consumption of parts and services due to high production pace, advanced machines, and an aging fleet. There are strong investments in digital and automation, and increasing exploration activities in mining. The infrastructure market is seeing a strong recovery in the U.S. and Europe, while Asia presents a mixed picture with muted activity in China but strong growth in India. Early signs of improvement are noted in the general industry across all regions. The Aerospace & Defense segment continues to be very strong, while the light vehicles market is muted overall. The tungsten market is characterized by volatile dynamics and a real supply shortage, driven by China's export restrictions, reduced mine output, and increased demand from the defense and electronics industries. The geopolitical and macro environment remains uncertain.	The launch of EverPath is anticipated to be very important for Sandvik's future. The Medical & Electronics segment is strategically important and expected to show high growth. Sandvik's focus is on delivering consistent financial performance while investing in building a stronger company for the long term. The company expects continued growth in subscription sales for Intelligent Manufacturing over the next few years. Rock Processing margins are expected to recover throughout the year as delivery delays are resolved. The aftermarket business is projected to be a high single-digit growth business in the long term, despite a very strong recent quarter. A currency headwind of SEK 0.5 billion is expected in the second quarter.	Mining	Digitalization and automation are significant trends across the mining and manufacturing industries, with strong investments noted. AI's role in software is emerging as a key theme; Sandvik views AI as a net positive for its specialized software business, which is tied to hardware and proprietary knowledge, helping to accelerate visions like closed-loop manufacturing and optimizing mine output. The industry is also grappling with a skills gap, which Sandvik is addressing through offerings like training simulators. Supply chain resilience and security, particularly concerning critical materials like tungsten, are becoming increasingly important.	We had a strong start to the year, strong demand across all business areas with double-digit organic growth in the quarter in all 4 business areas. Total order intake grew by 12% and organic order intake growth was 23%. I cannot underestimate how important this launch has been or will be going forward. Aerospace & Defense continues to be very strong across the board. order intake of SEK 36.8 billion, which is an all-time high. I see it as a net positive for our software business.	In Asia, it's a bit more mixed picture where China is more muted, while India is strong. Light vehicles is down overall, muted market, a bit flattish in Europe, but down in North America and China, very strong in India, but quite weak in the rest of the world. Profitability was weak in the quarter, SEK 290 million, a margin of 12%, down from 15.1% last year. continued uncertain geopolitical and macro environment. We still expect a headwind in the second quarter of SEK 0.5 billion.
