Loomis (OM:LOOMIS) drew investor attention after its intrinsic value estimate suggested the shares trade at a sizeable discount to assessed worth, prompting fresh questions about how the SEK 55.5b cash handling specialist is currently priced.
Loomis shares have eased slightly in the very short term, with a 1-day share price return of 0.63% lower and a 7-day share price return of 0.27% lower.

Loomis last closed at SEK555, exactly in line with the most followed fair value estimate of SEK555. The debate now centers on how durable its cash-driven business model really is as payments keep shifting toward digital options.
Resilient demand for physical cash handling, especially in key emerging and established markets, continues to drive stable growth in Loomis' core CIT and CMS segments. Persistent regulatory complexity benefits established, compliant operators, underpinning recurring revenues and pricing power. Ongoing technological investments in automation (smart safes, digital monitoring, cash recyclers) and Loomis Pay are enabling upselling, margin expansion and diversified revenue streams. This is positioning the company to capture a greater share of integrated security and cash management spending, impacting both revenue and earnings.
