An M&A Compounder

M&A compounder companies have demonstrated superior valuations the past decade

Sweden serves as a benchmark market, illustrating the potential of the decentralized M&A-driven compounder model.

EQVA is in the early stages of its compounder

Companies employing this strategy have consistently achieved robust growth, sustained profitability, and predictable earnings – contributing to high valuation multiples on the Stockholm Stock Exchange.

Peers EV / EBITA

C cc " -and- "-approach, regularly acquiring smaller businesses at lower multiples compared to their own valuations – creating substantial value (often above 20x EBITA) and investor returns.

(NOK 1,000)

* The IMTAS transaction was completed at the end of March. According to IFRS, performance must be recognized from the transaction date. To show the consolidated group as starting from January 1 we have included IMTAS.

** On March 26, EQVA divested its ownership in Vassnes Group for NOK 10 million. The gross profit from the sale (37,6 MNOK) is significant - mainly due to the demerger effect from previously reported negative equity value in Vassnes (per Q4 24). The accounting profit from the sale (less operational P&L for Vassnes for the period) is presented as discontinued operations on next slide.
