What believers are saying

  • Q2 2026 order intake reached SEK 68.4 billion, driven by Poland and Ukraine.
  • Saab is adding factories in Michigan and India, expanding delivery capacity globally.
  • NIB and other state-backed financing funded AI, autonomy, and command-and-control R&D.

What critics are saying

  • Management called supply chain the biggest bottleneck, limiting faster growth through 2026.
  • Saab booked a SEK 200 million naval write-down after losing Sweden's frigate program.
  • Any Gripen or GlobalEye delivery failure would cripple Saab's export credibility for years.

What makes Saab unique

  • Gripen, GlobalEye, and submarines give Saab sovereign platforms across air, sea, and surveillance.
  • Saab's NATO and Canada selections validate export appeal beyond Sweden's domestic market.
  • Its 2026 backlog hit SEK 318 billion, locking in multi-year production visibility.

Saab AB hits record $30.5B order backlog with 30% organic growth and 11% EBIT margin

Saab AB reported record results in Q2 2026, with an order backlog reaching SEK318 billion and order intake exceeding SEK68 billion, driven by major contracts including a SEK47 billion submarine deal with Poland and Gripen fighter contracts with Ukraine. The Swedish defence company achieved nearly 30% organic growth. EBIT margin improved to 11%, representing a 41% quarterly increase, whilst gross margin expanded by more than one percentage point year-on-year. Cash flow turned positive at SEK1 billion for the first half, compared to minus SEK1.1 billion the previous year. The company increased R&D investment by SEK700 million and maintained its BBB+ credit rating from S&P. Saab has been hiring approximately 3,000 employees annually to scale production capacity. However, the Naval division recorded a SEK200 million write-down after failing to secure the Swedish frigate programme.

Canada chooses Saab-Bombardier surveillance planes over US options for Arctic defence

Canada will purchase early warning radar planes from Sweden's Saab and Canada's Bombardier, Prime Minister Mark Carney announced Wednesday, choosing the option over two American alternatives from Boeing and L3Harris. The government is negotiating to acquire Saab's Airborne Early Warning & Control Aircraft, built on Bombardier's Global 6500 platform with 20% US content. The decision aligns with Carney's strategy to diversify military spending away from the United States, with a cap ensuring no more than 70 cents of every defence dollar goes to America. Canada joined a major EU defence fund last year and is seeking six radar aircraft capable of detecting threats across the Arctic. Canada is also reviewing its planned purchase of US F-35 fighter jets, exploring alternatives including Saab's Gripen, which would be assembled in Canada.
