When policy rate fell in 2025, 1,005 of 2,001 ranked companies kept their operating margin at or above the year before. Among the largest: Ving Norge AS (2.1% → 2.9%), Tui Norge AS (−0.9% → 0.4%), Nes Advantage AS (1.3% → 1.7%), Norwegian Crew Services AS (0.9% → 1.6%), Securitas AS (4.0% → 5.0%).

We show the drivers and the margin side by side and claim no cause. Sensitivity per company is not computed until we have at least 10 years of accounts per company: with three years such figures are false precision.
