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.

A few slides from that annual report, seasoned (perhaps) with my own thoughts. I’ve already linked many of the events here, so it’s pretty familiar stuff.    What can I say about the revenue and earnings. The growth has been beautiful, and last year’s record results crowned it. Overall, the security & defense orders received for the PIR segment have acted as a clear driver. I don’t see this demand fading anytime soon.   All segments are growing. Oceans and Connectivity are up a bit under 20%, and PIR exploded into 100% growth for the reasons mentioned above (although I’m confident in the defense sector’s demand, there’s still a small risk of an earnings bubble here). On the other hand, the company itself emphasizes that there is currently demand for European technology in Europe. Big surprise! As you bunnies following this thread already knew in advance from yours truly, Norbit will reach its 2027 targets a year early. So you read it here first, and only now is Norbit announcing it in its annual report. I’m most excited about this part of the CEO’s statement:  As we approach our 2027 ambition ahead of schedule, it is natural to lift our perspective further. During 2026, we intend to present our ambitions towards 2030 — building on the same development-oriented culture,  commercial discipline, and industrial capability that have brought us this far.   Those were the highlights. Need to keep browsing.

Fresh 2025 annual report available:           norbit.com              NORBIT%20ASA%20-%20Annual%20Report%202025.pdf    9.55 MB                            In the afternoon, I’ll get to read that most beautiful thing again!  The stock price is rocketing today as well, as the suits have raised their target prices. Wonderful to be alive!

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.
