What the Analysts think about Sword Group S.E.
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Sword Group S.E. stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Sword Group S.E. stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Organic growth accelerated to 17.1% in Q3 2026, with EBITDA margin holding at 12%; Sword also reaffirmed its full-year growth and profitability targets. This points to strong trading momentum without a near-term margin give-up. (GlobeNewswire, MarketScreener)
Sword Services Greece is leading a consortium awarded a four-year European Entry/Exit System contract estimated at €93 million. The project adds a sizeable public-sector programme and supports revenue visibility, although the contract value is for the consortium. (MarketScreener)
The CirrusHQ acquisition expands Sword’s cloud capabilities, with the acquired business generating about £6 million of annual revenue and a 12%+ EBIT margin; Sword budgeted 20% annual organic growth for it after integration. If delivered, this could add both growth and strategic depth. (Euronext)
Sword reported net debt of €62.9 million at June 2026 after acquisition spending, and management expected it to remain at €35 million at year-end. That reduces financial flexibility and makes further deal-making more dependent on cash generation and funding. (StockAnalysis)
H1 EBIT margin fell 30 basis points year on year to 9.2%, despite a steady 12% EBITDA margin. That gap suggests that costs below EBITDA and continued investment could limit how much growth reaches operating profit. (BourseDirect)
Management acknowledged that AI could make software development more productive and put Sword’s traditional time-and-materials work under pressure if the group fails to adapt. Its growth case therefore depends partly on executing the shift towards AI-enabled services rather than simply replacing lost legacy work. (StockAnalysis)
