Kamux Oyj KAMUX.HE

Finland · Nasdaq Helsinki · Vertical: Listed companies from Finland

1.27EUR−0.47% · 1 dayClose 04 Nov 2026

Kamux Oyj is a Finnish retailer of used cars, operating in Finland, Sweden and Germany through its own showrooms and integrated financing and insurance services. In 2024 sales grew slightly, but profitability fell under pressure from competition and problems in Sweden, and the company is now working to rebuild its margins. Sales of cars across the group after a weak year make 2025 performance an important test of the model.

At the close of 04 Nov 2026, Kamux Oyj (KAMUX.HE) stock was 1.27 EUR (−0.47% on the day), with market capitalisation 48.8 m EUR, P/E 10.6 on diluted EPS of 0.12 EUR over the last 12 months, dividend yield 13.95%, beta 0.58, 52-week range 1.26–2.36 EUR.

Memo

Kamux Oyj (KAMUX.HE). Latest full fiscal year: 2024; data up to 2024-12-31.

Figures computed from the financial statements: revenue 1.0 bn EUR in 2024; YoY growth 0.8%; net margin 0.5%; ROE 4.2%; net debt/EBITDA 1.4x.

The estimated value range is 2.41–3.10 EUR per share (median of 3 methods, agreement: medium); assumptions are illustrative. Against the central value of 2.78 EUR, the price of 1.27 EUR leaves a potential of 118.9% (value / price − 1) and a margin of safety of 54.3% (1 − price / value). The range is the median of the methods' low, central and high values, not a probability interval.

olivLaw score 47/100, methodological classification: neutral profile (score, margin of safety and method agreement together; not a judgement of the right price). Groups assessed only in part: growth, returns. Not investment advice.

Text generated deterministically from the figures shown; no language model. Not investment advice.

What supports the thesis

  • Current ratio: 2.1x
  • P/E (TTM): 10.6x
  • EV/EBITDA: 3.6x
  • Shareholder yield (distributions): 15.6%
  • The price is below the estimated value range

What contradicts it

  • FCF conversion: -8.7%
  • Net debt / EBITDA: 1.4x
  • FCF yield: -0.8%

Not assessed (insufficient data or a ratio without meaning): Revenue CAGR 3Y, EPS CAGR 3Y, Interest coverage, Payout ratio (FCF).

In brief

Kamux Oyj is a Finnish retailer of used cars, operating in Finland, Sweden and Germany through its own showrooms and integrated financing and insurance services. In 2024 sales grew slightly, but profitability fell under pressure from competition and problems in Sweden, and the company is now working to rebuild its margins. Sales of 1 cars across the group after a weak year make 2025 performance an important test of the model.

SWOT

Strengths

  • Own showroom network and integrated financing, insurance and warranty services that diversify revenue beyond car sales.
  • Presence in three markets, Finland, Sweden and Germany, which reduces dependence on a single economy.
  • Experience in processing cars bought through B2B channels and in cooperation with leasing partners.

Weaknesses

  • Low operating margin and falling adjusted profit, which limit the ability to absorb shocks.
  • Negative results in Sweden linked to volume losses, high staff turnover and conduct problems.
  • Weak cash generation in 2024, driven by higher inventory and working capital tied up in cars.

Opportunities

  • If the integration of services and digital channels grows, the company could earn more stable revenue per sale.
  • Partnerships such as those with mobility-as-a-service providers could open new customer segments.
  • Optimising the showroom network and reducing inventory could improve efficiency and cash flow.

Threats

  • Intense competition for purchases and sales could compress margins in all three countries.
  • Changes in tax policy on cars or in lending conditions could affect demand.
  • Uncertainty about repair costs and residual value of electric and hybrid vehicles may influence inventory prices.

Risks

  • Inventory value riskhigh

    Cars in stock can lose value quickly if demand or market prices shift, particularly for vehicles with newer powertrains.

  • Competition riskhigh

    Stronger competition for purchases and sales could reduce margins and volumes, especially in Sweden, where results were already weak.

  • Financing riskmedium

    If the cost of credit rises or banks restrict supply, customers may buy less and commission income could shrink.

  • Tax regulation riskmedium

    Changes to car legislation or taxation could directly affect demand and the company's costs.

  • Reputation and conduct risklow

    Past conduct problems showed that customer trust can be damaged quickly, which could reduce sales and make it harder to attract staff.

Investment thesis

What would need to be true (bull case)

  • If the recovery of margins in Finland and the improvement of Swedish results are confirmed, operating profit could grow significantly from the weak 2024 level.
  • Integrated services and products such as Kamux Plus can bring more predictable revenue, which would support results even in periods of lower volume.
  • Reducing inventory and improving working capital could release cash and lower the need for financing.

What would break the thesis

  • Operating profit and margins fell in 2024, and if the trend continues, the company could remain with low profitability.
  • Problems in Sweden and staff turnover show that operational execution remains vulnerable, and recovery could take longer than expected.
  • Intense competition and pressure on purchase prices could prevent a quick rebuilding of margins, especially if demand cools.

What to watch

Products, market & competition

AI-generatedAI-generated analysis (Claude) from cited public sources; it may contain errors. Not investment advice. As of 27 Oct 2026 · Model: claude-haiku-5-5.

The business

Kamux sells used passenger cars through its own showrooms and online channels, and in 2024 the group reported revenue of 1 million euros. Its model includes integrated services such as financing, insurance and the Kamux Plus product, which extends the seller's statutory liability for defects. These are offered on a commission basis, and revenue from them is a small but growing share of the total.

At the end of 2024 the company had 1 showrooms in Finland, Sweden and Germany, after several locations were closed or moved to new premises. The network aims to offer a better buying experience, measured by the NPS indicator, which rose slightly in 2024. Alongside retail sales, the group has also built vehicle purchasing and processing activities.

Sales depend on volume and margin per car, so developments in purchase prices, inventory and processing costs directly affect the result. The company reported higher inventory and weak cash generation in 2024, which shows the model's sensitivity to working capital management.

Segments

Finland

Finland is Kamux's largest market, with revenue of 1 million euros and 1 car sales in 2024. Growth was driven by a higher average price, but adjusted operating profit fell because acquiring cheaper combustion-engine cars became harder in the second half of the year.

Sweden

Sweden was the weakest market in 2024, with sharply lower sales and a negative adjusted operating result. Conduct problems in the second half of 2023, high staff turnover and volume losses weighed on operations, and management reported that corrective measures were completed by year-end.

Germany

Germany grew in vehicles sold and reported total revenue of 1 million euros, but profitability remained negative, although it improved from the previous year. The company opened one new showroom and closed two locations, which points to a network in reconfiguration.

Market context

The used car market in the Nordic region and Germany is highly fragmented, with competitors ranging from large national dealers to private sellers. Demand was good in 2024 in all three countries, but competition intensified, especially in Sweden, where aggressive offers increased towards year-end.

The market is influenced by new car registration levels, customer financing conditions and demand for different powertrains. Sales of used electric and hybrid vehicles grew in Finland, but repair and insurance costs for these cars remain hard to estimate, which could change market prices.

Trends

  • Steady demand for used carstailwind

    Demand for used passenger cars remained good in Finland, Sweden and Germany in 2024, which supports the company's sales volume if the pace holds.

  • Growing competitive intensityheadwind

    Several players have entered used car sales aggressively, and in Sweden attractive offers pressured margins. If the pressure continues, the company could have to accept lower margins to maintain volume.

  • Shift towards electric and hybrid vehiclesmixed

    Sales of electric and hybrid cars rose sharply in Finland, but uncertainty about repair, insurance and residual value costs may affect market prices of these vehicles.

  • Pressure from financing costsheadwind

    Customer financing conditions and working capital costs influence demand and margins. According to the report, a sudden change in lending rates could reduce customers' access to financing or raise the company's cost of funds.

Competitive position

Kamux competes with chain used-car dealers, online sellers and private individuals, in a highly fragmented market where entry barriers are relatively low. In 2024 competition intensified, mainly in car purchasing, as several players that previously focused on new cars shifted their emphasis to used ones.

The company's advantage lies in its showroom network, integrated financing and insurance services, and products such as Kamux Plus, which extend the offer beyond simple sales. As a weakness, the Swedish results show that losing volume and staff can quickly reduce competitive position in a market.

  • Finnish national used-car dealers

    Local and regional dealers that compete directly for the same customers and the same cars at purchase.

  • German online used-car sellers

    Digital platforms that compete on transparent prices and home delivery.

  • Swedish used-car dealers

    Competitors that brought aggressive offers to Sweden towards the end of 2024.

  • Individual sellers and regional chains

    Part of the fragmented market that adds pressure on both purchase and selling prices.
