Norbit is a technology company. The company specializes in sonar solutions used in the marine sector. The technology is based on proprietary technology and is mainly used for inspection and control of underwater environments, 3D imaging, and various system integrations. In addition, various products are offered for surveillance, digital signal processing, and high-resolution data. The largest operations are found in North America and Europe. The headquarters are located in Trondheim, Norway.

It’s great that Norbit has ended up on your watchlist ;). You’re likely more well-informed regarding insider information than I am, but my understanding is that this falls under that category. For Norbit, this kind of announcement has typically led to a contract, and the company is just providing information to the investor at an early stage. After all, even the delivery schedule is already pretty much agreed upon. So, this deal will get over the line too, and Q2 PIR will get at least those 200 MNOK in deliveries ;). I’m not a big fan of these ‘maybe contracts’ myself either, but with Norbit, they have meant actual contracts.

A bit strange, these “maybe there’ll be a deal” announcements?  If things are going so well, why the need to hype it up?                   Inderes              NORBIT – Advanced negotiations regarding a NOK 115 million contract - Inderes    Trondheim, 25 February 2026 NORBIT today announces that segment PIR is in advanced negotiations with a European client within defence and security regarding an order for contract manufacturing...

Inderes              NORBIT - Transaction by Primary Insider - Inderes    Trondheim, 12 February 2026 Christina Hallin, director and primary insider of NORBIT ASA has on 11 February 2026 purchased 1 000 shares in NORBIT at an average price of NOK 185.00 per share....                              Christina Hallin, director and primary insider of NORBIT ASA has on 11 February 2026 purchased 1 000 shares in NORBIT at an average price of NOK 185.00 per share. Following the transaction, Hallin owns 1 000 shares in NORBIT.   Small streams…!

Let’s get back to the Q4 report by segment. The quarter was the best in the company’s history. I’m listening to the conference call at the same time and will add more details as I go. Oceans   Basic sonars are performing well, Wingheads are not. Usually the strongest quarter, but clearly weaker this year. As @stockenstain wrote above, for a few orders, delivery likely shifted to Q1. Oceans shouldn’t be viewed just quarter by quarter, but over a longer period: full-year development was very good. New innovations during the quarter, long-range sonars for mapping deep water bodies → expands the company’s TAM.  Connectivity   GNSS OBUs are rocking, as explained in the messages above. The Toll4Europe cooperation provides nice support; the 160MNOK order received during the quarter will be delivered during H1. Only part of the large 160MNOK order was delivered in Q4, and part shifted to Q1’26. A slower-than-expected production ramp-up was the reason.  PIR   An absolutely insane quarter driven by the defense sector. This is a double-edged sword: Is it just a temporary hype, and PIR will return to low-margin stagnation, or will this become the new normal? If it does, Norbit would turn even this historically weaker segment into a real powerhouse, significantly brightening the company’s future (as good demand can be expected across all segments). Demand in the defense sector remains high. Q4 EBIT margin rose from 14% to 22% year-on-year, and for the full year from 10% to 19%. Two large orders are estimated to be delivered during Q1’26 (120MNOK and 170MNOK).

PIR’s share of revenue rose from 31%→43% and defense revenue from 103M→696M, which is the most significant change in this report. ROCE rose to 34% (27% the previous year). The Oceans segment was weak in Q4, mainly due to an export license issue in the security sector and the postponement of renewable energy projects — management expects Q1 to improve. 2026 guidance is >3.0 billion NOK with margin improvement, and the 2027 targets were surpassed a couple of years ahead of schedule. New long-term targets through 2030 will be released in August. Based on this report, this morning’s dip looks illogical and like a good buying opportunity.

Inderes              NORBIT - Fourth quarter and preliminary annual results 2025 - Inderes    Trondheim, 11 February 2026 NORBIT delivered record-high revenues of NOK 2.5 billion million for the financial year 2025, with an operating profit (EBIT) for the full-year period at NOK 555....                              NORBIT delivered record-high revenues of NOK 2.5 billion million for the financial year 2025, with an operating profit (EBIT) for the full-year period at NOK 555.4 million, representing a margin of 22 per cent. The fourth quarter also set a record, with revenues reaching NOK 791.1 million - an increase of 42 per cent compared to the same period in 2024. The EBIT result for the quarter was NOK 178.4 million, representing a margin of 23 per cent.  The Oceans segment reported revenues of NOK 213.4 million, a 21 per cent decrease from Q4 2024, with an EBIT margin of 26 per cent. The Connectivity segment reached revenues of NOK 190.2 million, an increase of 25 per cent, and an EBIT margin of 28 per cent. The Product Innovation & Realization segment achieved a revenue growth of 173 per cent to NOK 407.9 million, with an EBIT margin of 22 per cent.   I’ll be updating this throughout the day as work permits! At first glance, this report leans toward the disappointing side. It fell short of both the company’s own guidance and analyst estimates. Important part: medium-term targets will be surpassed a year ahead of schedule, as was already known here.  The target for 2026 is to deliver more than NOK 3.0 billion in revenues and an EBIT margin improvement compared to the 22 per cent reported in 2025. The targets are supported by growth and improved financial performance through operational leverage, scalability and maintaining cost discipline.   New long-term ambitions toward 2030 will be presented at the second quarter reporting in August.

Quick update on expectations for next Wednesday, Feb 11th, interim report. Q4 will be wrapped up, and thus the entire 2025 will be in the books. Overall, the company guides for 2500-2600 MNOK in revenue for the full year, with an EBIT margin of 24-25%.  Q4 expectations by segment (company’s own) Oceans:  ~ 230 MNOK revenue.  Connectivity:  ~ 200-240 MNOK revenue.  PIR  ~ 390-420 MNOK revenue.  The company’s own range for Q4 revenue is therefore 820-890 MNOK, while analysts expect 846 MNOK. Analysts are expecting ~28% EBIT margin (236 MNOK), which I believe the company might slightly miss due to high PIR revenue (lower margin). If they reach the company’s own expectations, it will be another monster quarter, with year-on-year growth in the tens of percent. Peer Kongsberg’s Discovery segment Kongsberg reported its results a couple of days ago, and Discovery, which is highly comparable to Oceans, had a strong quarter. The company exceeded expectations overall. Kongsberg’s results highlighted strong demand for AUVs (unmanned vehicles) and the continued need for them: Norbit mentioned the same in their Q3 conference call, and I assume Norbit will also see strong revenue for Oceans from this in Q4. On this front as well, I’m heading toward the Norbit report with a positive mindset; there seems to be momentum across the entire market. As an aside, Kongsberg is spinning off its Maritime segment into a separate listed company. The spin-off will happen on April 23rd this year when it lists on the Oslo Stock Exchange. Consequently, the “original” Kongsberg will retain the Kongsberg Discovery and Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace segments. Very interesting—if the parent company takes a significant hit after the spin-off, I might be interested in this gem as well ;). Another top-tier quarter is expected from Norbit on Wednesday—no need to worry! Let’s hope we also get something in the way of guidance for this year. The medium-term targets are going to be absolutely crushed, as they would only require about 5% revenue growth this year to be met.                                                ps. The company is expected to see 16% revenue growth and 14% EPS growth this year. If this is achieved, the company trades at EV/EBIT 18x and P/E 23x.
