Conviction: MEDIUM
A high-quality Nordic construction-software (SaaS) compounder (quality 76, recurring revenue) — but small absolute EP and a price embedding ~6.6% perpetual growth leave it fully valued on the reverse-DCF. Quality SaaS, full. HOLD.

Thesis

SmartCraft provides vertical SaaS for the Nordic construction and trades sector (project management, field tools, estimating), a sticky, recurring-revenue franchise with high retention and a buy-and-build M&A strategy. A quality score of 76 and 11% adjusted ROIC reflect the SaaS economics.

The equity at SEK 15.6 embeds ~6.6% perpetual growth (reverse-DCF), and economic profit is small in absolute terms (+SEK 24M) on a small base. SaaS quality and growth are real, but the static reverse-DCF reads the equity as fully valued.

Valuation · reverse-DCF & scenarios

Bridging adjusted NOPAT through modest net debt, reverse-DCF fair value runs SEK 7.6–8.8 across scenarios — well below the SEK 15.6 price (~6.6% implied growth), a harsh-perpetuity reading for a high-retention SaaS compounder but a signal that the price embeds continued growth.

Base SEK 15.6 (flat); bull SEK 20 (recurring-revenue growth + accretive M&A + margin expansion); bear SEK 11 (Nordic construction-cycle softness slows new subscriptions).

At today’s enterprise value the constant-ROIC reverse-DCF maxes out: even at its sustainable-growth ceiling (~10.5%, limited by ROIC 11% ≈ WACC 8%) it cannot reach the current EV. No-growth value is SEK 8/share (49% of price); the market prices in growth and/or a higher ROIC than booked — richly valued on this lens. Read the sensitivity grid.

Green = fair value above the current price of SEK 15.30. The reverse-DCF conclusion is dominated by WACC and growth — see the whole surface, not a single fair value.

Method & data. NOPAT SEK 82, invested capital and ROIC 11.0% are observed (adjustments.json); WACC 8.0% and terminal g 2.5% are assumptions. EV→equity uses net debt SEK -91. The model holds ROIC constant (no fade) over the explicit horizon; the CAP figure instead fades excess returns to WACC.

Key drivers

1. Vertical SaaS stickiness

Mission-critical construction software with high retention and recurring revenue.

2. Buy-and-build M&A

A disciplined acquisition strategy in fragmented Nordic construction software.

3. Recurring-revenue growth

Subscription growth plus upsell drives durable compounding.

4. Quality score 76

High-quality SaaS economics and cash conversion.

5. Digitalisation tailwind

Construction-sector digitalisation is a structural demand driver.

Key risks
Conclusion

SmartCraft is a high-quality Nordic construction-SaaS compounder at a full price on the reverse-DCF. HOLD, medium conviction; base target SEK 15.6 (flat) — accumulate on construction-cycle weakness.

Recurring-revenue growth plus accretive M&A is the upside; construction cyclicality and full valuation are the principal considerations.
