Analysis

Middle-of-the-road

Orkla ASA is a middle-of-the-road business: neither the economics nor the price stand out from the peer group.

The price is attractive. You pay 9.6× its owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year, which is in the historically attractive zone.

The trajectory is tepid and the balance sheet is adequate. The company scores 20/20 on our value-creation score: strong value creator.

What to watch: Reported profits have run ahead of actual cash for several periods. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
