Business

Is the company getting stronger, not just bigger? · 2 findings
−3 of −30
  • Return on capital
    ROE 15.2% (TTM) and a target of only 17% in 2028, vs 27–31% at the Norwegian P&C insurers Gjensidige and Protector; a capital-heavy life and pension balance sheet with guaranteed products.
    −2
  • Quality of growth
    Segment income grew about 5% (TTM DKK 19.2bn vs 18.3bn in 2025), but analysts expect only 6% EPS growth in 2026 and about 10% a year over three years; part of the AUM growth (+10%) is market-driven.
    −1

Price

Today's multiples against the company's own history and its peers. · 2 findings
−8 of −35
  • Multiples vs own history
    P/B 2.50 vs 1.10–2.18 in 2021–2025 (a record), trailing P/E 17.0 vs 9.6–16.8 and forward P/E 15.5 vs 9.2–15.5 (the top). Market value has doubled since 2023 (DKK 40bn → 81bn), while EPS has risen from DKK 7.31 to 11.44.
    −6
  • Peers
    The forward P/E of 15.5 is in line with Sampo (15.0) and Gjensidige (15.2), which have markedly higher ROE (24–27%); the price is at analysts' average target (DKK 198).
    −2

Cracks

Cash flow, customers, debt, insiders, guidance and what sits behind the headline numbers. · 2 findings
−3 of −35
  • Market sensitivity
    The Q2 group profit of DKK 1,799m includes about DKK 680m on top of the operating profit of 1,119m (financial items and risk result), and fees follow AUM; solvency fell from 206% to 200% because of the symmetric equity adjustment.
    −2
  • Guaranteed products and regulation
    New rules for flexible guarantees from 1 July 2026 are expected to trigger customer outflows of about DKK 13bn from hybrid and guaranteed products; the interest-rate risk in the guaranteed book remains.
    −1

Plus

Only documented strengths. · 2 findings
+4 of +15
  • Dividend and buybacks
    Dividend of DKK 5.40 (about 2.3bn) plus buybacks of DKK 2bn in 2026 (1bn in H1, 1bn in H2) = about 4.3bn, below net profit of 4.85bn (TTM); share count −2.3% in a year and a target of at least DKK 12bn of buybacks up to 2030 (solvency 200% vs a threshold of 175%).
    +3
  • Insurance growth
    The insurance result rose to DKK 480m from 289m in Q2, premiums grew 12%, and unit-linked reserves 19%; operating profit +17%.
    +1

Caveats

What the score does not capture, or where the data is weak.
Life and pension insurance: stockanalysis' revenue, EBITDA, EV and ROIC are distorted by customer funds and investment returns on behalf of policyholders (revenue DKK 108bn TTM); valued on P/B and P/E, and payouts are measured against net income. Analyst price targets range from DKK 142 to 245. The Swedish business (SPP) and the Knif Trygghet acquisition have not been examined separately.
