The industry or the company: what drove the result?
In 2025 the operating margin of Travers Lab AS rose by 14.8 percentage points. Comparable companies fell by a median 0.2 points. So the company did 15.1 points better than the industry, for reasons of its own.
Over 2 year-to-year changes Travers Lab AS moved the same way as comparable companies 1 times. About 2% 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 | −1.6% | 8.0% | −14.4 percentage points | −0.5 percentage points | −13.9 percentage points |
| 2025 | 13.3% | 7.8% | +14.8 percentage points | −0.2 percentage points | +15.1 percentage points |

Three simple methods
The methods give between 2 MNOK and 3 MNOK.
| Method | Multiple | Estimate |
|---|---|---|
| P/E | 22.4 | 2 MNOK |
| EV/EBIT | 17.4 | 3 MNOK |
| P/B | 4.1 | 2 MNOK |
| EV/EBIT: from enterprise value to equity | NOK |
|---|---|
| Enterprise value (EV) at the listed multiple | 4 MNOK |
| Enterprise value after the size adjustment | 2 MNOK |
| Less net debt (rough figure) | −1 MNOK |
| Equity value | 3 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. Net debt is −51% of the enterprise value after the size adjustment, so the equity value from EV/EBIT is sensitive to errors in the debt figure.
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 (74): Business & Consumer Services.
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
