Three simple methods
Suggested price: about 3 MNOK
The mean of the 3 methods below (P/E, EV/EBIT and P/B with listed multiples and a size adjustment), rounded to two significant figures. It is a calculation, not a bid or a valuation. The median of the methods is 2 MNOK. The mean is the suggested price, but the median is less sensitive to one method that deviates. The methods differ widely (the highest is 8.7 times the lowest), so the estimate is uncertain.
That is about 9,667 NOK per share, on 300 shares in the shareholder register.
The methods give between 1 MNOK and 6 MNOK.
| Method | Multiple | Estimate |
|---|---|---|
| P/E | 19.2 | 2 MNOK |
| EV/EBIT | 15.1 | 6 MNOK |
| P/B | 2.4 | 1 MNOK |
| EV/EBIT: from enterprise value to equity | NOK |
|---|---|
| Enterprise value (EV) at the listed multiple | 8 MNOK |
| Enterprise value after the size adjustment | 5 MNOK |
| Less net debt (rough figure) | −1 MNOK |
| Equity value | 6 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 NACE code has no listed industry of its own in the table, so the multiples are the sector median: Total Market (without financials).
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

Figures you will not find in any register
We calculated these figures ourselves from the accounts and registers we have read. The company has not reported them and the Brønnøysund Register Centre does not publish them. They are indications and are not part of the index. How we calculate
- Implied dividend (net payout)
- Equity moved as the result implied in 2025.
Calculated as retained earnings at the start of the year + net result − retained earnings at the end of the year. What remains is dividends and group contributions, plus transfers to other items and corrections of earlier years. It is not a dividend figure. - Owners and leadership aged 60 or older
- Several signs that a generation change may be coming.
- The chair is 60 or older.
- The managing director is 60 or older.
- 1 of 2 on the board are 60 or older.
- What the largest owner can do alone
- The largest owner holds 100.0% of the shares, at least two thirds. The owner can alone secure decisions that need a two-thirds majority, such as changes to the articles (Companies Act § 5-18), and all decisions by ordinary majority (§ 5-17).
The owner is a private person.
Applies to the largest single owner in the shareholder register (2025). The articles can limit voting rights and owners can vote together, and we cannot see either. Ownership through other companies is not counted. - Board and managing director as owners
- 1 of the 2 who sit on the board or are managing director hold shares directly, together at least 100.0% of the shares.
A combined figure with no names. The people are found by the same birth year and the same words in the name in the company's owner list (2025). Someone who owns through a holding company, or is entered under another name, is not found, so the figure is a lower bound and does not say the others own nothing.
Not financial advice. The index, rank, signals and advice are rule-based indications from the latest filed annual accounts. They are not a credit rating, an assessment of management or a recommendation to buy, sell or do business with the company. Read more
