The industry or the company: what drove the result?
In 2025 the operating margin of Buer AS fell by 4.3 percentage points. Comparable companies fell by a median 0.5 points. So the company did 3.7 points weaker than the industry, for reasons of its own.
Over 2 year-to-year changes Buer AS moved the same way as comparable companies 2 times. About 15% of the changes in operating margin were common to the industry; the rest was the company's own.
| Year | The company | Comparable (median) | Change, company | Change, industry | The company's own |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 8.0% | 5.4% | +0.1 percentage points | +0.1 percentage points | 0.0 percentage points |
| 2025 | 3.7% | 4.9% | −4.3 percentage points | −0.5 percentage points | −3.7 percentage points |
Comparable companies are those in the same industry and Morning company class. Their change shows what hit the whole industry, the sector drivers below included. The rest is the company's own: contracts, costs, one-off items or operations. The share is approximate, and we claim no cause.

Three simple methods
The methods give between 45 MNOK and 78 MNOK.
| Method | Multiple | Estimate |
|---|---|---|
| P/E | 19.5 | 78 MNOK |
| EV/EBIT | 16.4 | 45 MNOK |
| P/B | 3.0 | 50 MNOK |
| EV/EBIT: from enterprise value to equity | NOK |
|---|---|
| Enterprise value (EV) at the listed multiple | 79 MNOK |
| Enterprise value after the size adjustment | 49 MNOK |
| Less net debt (rough figure) | 3 MNOK |
| Equity value | 45 MNOK |
Net debt is a rough figure: long-term liabilities minus cash. The accounts do not split interest-bearing debt from other liabilities, and short-term borrowings are not included. The size adjustment applies to the enterprise value, not to the debt.
The listed basis is the value at listed multiples. The estimate is lowered for size: a small-company premium of 4% on the cost of equity gives a value 38% 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 (10): Food Processing.
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
