The operating result is negative, so the interest coverage is negative: operations cover none of the financial costs.
Net working capital (current assets less bank deposits less current liabilities): −0.1 MNOK.
Of the financial costs of 0.5 MNOK, 0.3 MNOK is reported as interest costs in the accounts.
The median and the bar refer to companies in the Morning class Micro in the same sector in 2025. The bar shows the share of the group with a lower figure: higher is not always better, long receivable days tie up capital, for example. These figures do not count in the score.
Returns, debt against earnings and quality

2.58 | 2.46 | |
| Debt and financing | |||
| Net debt in times operating result Long-term liabilities less cash, over the operating result: roughly how many years the business must earn to repay the debt. A negative figure means more cash than long-term debt. Rough, because the accounts do not split out interest-bearing debt. Only calculated when the operating result is positive. |

– | 1.4 | |
| Payroll costs over revenue Payroll costs (with employer's contribution and pension) over revenue. Shows how much of revenue is a fixed cost in a service business. |
– | 35.6% | |
| Revenue safety margin How far revenue can fall before the operating result is zero, assuming payroll is fixed and all other costs follow revenue. A calculation, not a measurement: depreciation and rent are also fixed, so reality is lower. |

| Cash runway (months) Cash over the operating loss per month, only for years with a loss. Assumes the loss continues unchanged and no new financing arrives. Capped at 120 months. |
11 mo. | 20 mo. | |
DuPont on the closing balance: net margin −12.5% × asset turnover 6.77 × multiplier 2.58 = −217.2% of equity at the end of the year. The return on equity above uses average equity and can differ slightly.
The operating result is not positive, so net debt over operating result and the safety margin are not calculated.
The median and the bar are for companies in the Morning class Micro in the same sector in 2025. The bar shows the share of the group with a lower figure: high is not always good. The figures are our own calculations from the annual accounts and do not count in the score. Open data has no depreciation, so no EBITDA, and the accounts do not split out interest-bearing debt. How we calculate
The industry or the company: what drove the result?
In 2025 the operating margin of AE Frogner AS rose by 242.4 percentage points. Comparable companies rose by a median 0.1 points. So the company did 242.3 points better than the industry, for reasons of its own.
Over 2 year-to-year changes AE Frogner AS moved the same way as comparable companies 0 times. About 0% 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 | −248.1% | 4.9% | +1,618.6 percentage points | −0.2 percentage points | +1,618.8 percentage points |
| 2025 | −5.7% | 5.0% | +242.4 percentage points | +0.1 percentage points | +242.3 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
Suggested price: about 0 MNOK
The mean of the 1 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. Fewer than three methods gave a figure, so the mean is weaker than it looks.
That is about 175 NOK per share, on 2,000 shares in the shareholder register.
One method gives a figure: 0 MNOK.
| Method | Multiple | Estimate |
|---|---|---|
| P/E | 19.6 | not meaningful |
| EV/EBIT | 17.7 | not meaningful |
| P/B | 1.8 | 0 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 (52): Transportation.
