What the numbers say
Cobuilder Group AS had an equity ratio of 100.0% in 2025. The company is not ranked: revenue not reported.
No large changes in the key figures from 2024 to 2025.

Three simple methods
One method gives a figure: 986 MNOK.
| Method | Multiple | Estimate |
|---|---|---|
| P/E | 17.4 | not meaningful |
| EV/EBIT | 12.4 | not meaningful |
| P/B | 1.4 | 986 MNOK |
The listed basis is the value at listed multiples. The estimate is lowered for size: a small-company premium of 2% on the cost of equity gives a value 24% lower. No separate marketability discount is applied, because the premium already allows for the company being small and unlisted.
The multiples are from the listed industry that matches the NACE code (58): Publishing & Newspapers.
Not financial advice. The value range is a rough model estimate from listed-company multiples, not a valuation, a price target or a price offer. The actual value may differ greatly. Read more
A mechanical estimate from public accounts, not advice. A mechanical estimate from public accounts with listed multiples and fixed adjustments. Not a valuation and not advice to buy or sell. See the calculation

Based on: Interest coverage (times) −23.1 (median 8.3); Financial costs as a share of debt 3.3% (median 1.0%).
- watch
The company made a loss before tax. Are these one-off items or a pattern?
Based on: Profit margin – (median 6.5%).
Indications based on the latest annual accounts from open data. Not investment or financial advice.
