Three simple methods
One method gives a figure: 1 MNOK.
| Method | Multiple | Estimate |

| P/E | 18.0 | not meaningful |
| EV/EBIT | 14.9 | not meaningful |
| P/B | 3.6 | 1 MNOK |
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 (62): Computer Services.
