How we calculate
The industry or the company: what drove the result?
In 2025 the operating margin of Vask AS rose by 19.6 percentage points. Comparable companies rose by a median 0.0 points. So the company did 19.6 points better than the industry, for reasons of its own.
Over 2 year-to-year changes Vask AS moved the same way as comparable companies 0 times. About 1% 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 | 26.2% | 3.7% | +13.2 percentage points | −0.1 percentage points | +13.3 percentage points |
| 2025 | 45.8% | 3.8% | +19.6 percentage points | +0.0 percentage points | +19.6 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 5 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 6 MNOK. The mean is the suggested price, but the median is less sensitive to one method that deviates.
That is about 51,000 NOK per share, on 100 shares in the shareholder register.
The methods give between 4 MNOK and 6 MNOK.
| Method | Multiple | Estimate |
|---|---|---|
| P/E | 19.2 | 6 MNOK |
| EV/EBIT | 15.1 | 6 MNOK |
| P/B | 2.4 | 4 MNOK |
| EV/EBIT: from enterprise value to equity | NOK |
|---|---|
| Enterprise value (EV) at the listed multiple | 9 MNOK |
| Enterprise value after the size adjustment | 6 MNOK |
| Less net debt (rough figure) | 0 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.
Over 2 years it equals 0% of the sum of the results.
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 1 on the board are 60 or older.
- What the largest owner can do alone
- The largest owner holds 100.0% of the shares, more than nine tenths. The owner is a company and can then buy out the other shareholders by compulsion (Norwegian Companies Act § 4-26), provided it also holds the corresponding share of the votes. Every other decision the owner can secure alone.
The owner is a Norwegian company.
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. - Control against ownership through the chain
- A private person holds a majority at each of 2 links and so controls the company, but owns at least 100% of it itself.
The top owner is the highest we can establish, and it can itself be owned by others. The figure is «at least» because other routes between the owner and the company only add to it. The articles can limit voting rights, and we cannot see that. Shareholder register (2025).
