HEXA-B.ST · PEAD ↑ 32

Hexagon AB reported Q3 2026 EPS of 0.08 on 2026-10-22, beating the 0.07 consensus by 0.01 (+14.3%); no prior-year comparable available in the feed.

Print-day reaction was −2.5%, as the stock closed lower despite the earnings beat, suggesting the market had already priced in a stronger outcome or took issue with qualitative disclosures. Overnight, however, price gapped up +3.9% at the next open, signalling a meaningful after-hours reassessment. The Day 1–3 drift added a further +3.4%, sustaining the recovery with consistent follow-through. Cumulative abnormal return of +5.2% versus SPY.US (which returned −0.4% over the same window) places this firmly in PEAD long territory; the documented drift pattern holds through 2027-01-19.
