The industry

We cannot compare this company

The accounts cover less than a full year, most likely the first period after incorporation. Both revenue and margin then mean something different from a full year of trading, so a comparison against other companies would mislead.

How the company stands

Margin says how it went, the balance sheet says how the company stands

Two companies on the same margin can be in entirely different situations. These figures come from the balance sheet and say something about how well the company would take a bad quarter.

2.3Current ratioStrong

The company has comfortable cover for what falls due. How many kroner the company holds in current assets for every krone falling due within the year. Below 1 means the bills coming due are larger than what there is to pay them with.

0.8Debt to equityStrong

The company is financed mainly with its own money. How many kroner of debt the company carries per krone of equity. Lower is safer.

14.2Interest coverStrong

Interest is a small part of what the company earns. How many times the operating result covers the interest the company pays.

2.6 m krRetained earningsStrong

The company has earned back more than was put in. How much the company has earned and kept across its whole life, beyond what the owners put in.

Next step

The figures say where the company stands, not why

The accounts show the result of how the company is run, but say nothing about where in the working day the time and the money disappear. That is only found by walking through the flow itself, from the job coming in to the money being on the account.
