Swedish medtech maker of surgical workflow, sterilization and acute cardiopulmonary/critical care equipment for hospitals.
Sells long-life hospital equipment, then earns again from service contracts, spare parts and single-use consumables used with it, so the installed base brings steady income beyond new orders. Hospital budgets decide the timing of big equipment purchases. The investor Carl Bennet, through his holding company, is the controlling shareholder.
In one line: A Swedish Baxter International/Stryker hybrid.
Moat: narrow (installed base, switching costs, regulatory licence). Long-life hospital capital equipment creates service/upgrade lock-in, though execution/quality issues have hurt trust.
Headquarters: Gothenburg, Sweden · Founded: 1904 · Employees: 12,118
