Event Summary

Electrolux Group reported its Q2 2026 results on July 29, 2026. Net sales were SEK 31,569m with organic growth of 2.0%. Operating income excluding non-recurring items was SEK 1,202m (margin 3.8%), while reported operating income was SEK -1,005m due to SEK -2.2bn in restructuring charges related to the Midea Group partnership in North America and other initiatives. The company completed a SEK 9.1bn rights issue. North America faced weak demand and cost pressure from extended U.S. Section 232 tariffs, prompting Electrolux to raise prices 5-20%. Cost efficiency measures contributed SEK 1.4bn. The company revised its capex outlook to SEK 3.0-3.5bn.
