Fundamentals
Valuation and ratings
Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (publ) trades at $9.19. Our model's figure for Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (publ) is more than double the highest analyst price target on record. That points to a problem with the inputs rather than a bargain, so we publish no estimate until they produce one that passes this check.
Our moat model scores it 65 out of 100, which is a moat, but not a deep one. A moat is a structural reason competitors cannot take the profits away, and it matters more to a long holding period than any single quarter's numbers do.
It changes hands at 14.7 times earnings. Be careful reading that in isolation: for a cyclical business a low P/E arrives at the top of the cycle, when profits are peaking and about to fall, which is exactly when the shares look cheapest and are not.

ERIC earnings and analyst estimates
Recommendation mix, 7 published ratings
Estimates are the published analyst consensus and move often. An earnings date is scheduled, not certain, and a share tends to reprice most violently on the day itself.

A word of warning on reading these figures: a 13F reports the market value of a holding, so a fund that traded nothing at all still appears to have sold when the price fell. We found 102 companies where the standard reading gives the opposite answer. Only the share count is honest.
