Key facts

Net working capital (current assets less bank deposits less current liabilities): 1.3 MNOK.
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.

| 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.

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 Aarnseth AS fell by 19.5 percentage points. Comparable companies fell by a median 0.3 points. So the company did 19.2 points weaker than the industry, for reasons of its own.
Over 2 year-to-year changes Aarnseth AS moved the same way as comparable companies 2 times. About 4% 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 | 12.7% | 9.2% | −11.3 percentage points | −1.0 percentage points | −10.2 percentage points |
| 2025 | −6.8% | 8.9% | −19.5 percentage points | −0.3 percentage points | −19.2 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 18 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 18 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 5.5 times the lowest), so the estimate is uncertain.
That is about 183 NOK per share, on 98,254 shares in the shareholder register.
The methods give between 6 MNOK and 30 MNOK.
| Method | Multiple | Estimate |
|---|---|---|
| P/E | 18.8 | 30 MNOK |
| EV/EBIT | 23.4 | 6 MNOK |
| P/B | 1.1 | 18 MNOK |
| EV/EBIT: from enterprise value to equity | NOK |
|---|---|
| Enterprise value (EV) at the listed multiple | 9 MNOK |
| Enterprise value after the size adjustment | 5 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 multiples are from the listed industry that matches the NACE code (86): Hospitals/Healthcare Facilities.
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

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

- 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
- No sign of a near generation change in the ages.
- The chair is under 60.
