Memo
POLARIS MEDIA ASA (POL.OL). Latest full fiscal year: 2025; data up to 2025-12-31.
Figures computed from the financial statements: revenue 3.4 bn NOK in 2025; YoY growth 1.4%; net margin 0.2%; ROE 0.3%.
The estimated value range is 108.41–135.43 NOK per share (median of 2 methods, agreement: low); assumptions are illustrative. Against the central value of 120.54 NOK, the price of 58.20 NOK leaves a potential of 107.1% (value / price − 1) and a margin of safety of 51.7% (1 − price / value). The range is the median of the methods' low, central and high values, not a probability interval.
Insufficient data for a verdict (score weight coverage: 52.1% of at least 60%).

In brief
Polaris Media ASA is a Norwegian-Swedish media group that publishes regional newspapers and distributes press in Norway and Sweden. In fiscal 2025 advertising revenue declined while user revenue grew, and the group is shifting more strongly to digital amid global competition and the decline of print.
SWOT
Strengths
- Established regional brands and a strong local position, backed by reader trust and editorial quality.
- Steady growth in digital subscriptions and a recurring revenue model.
- A solid financial position with good liquidity and financial flexibility.
Weaknesses
- Still high dependence on print, with structural decline in print advertising and distribution.
- Distribution in Sweden is loss-making and relies on staff reductions.
- Advertising revenue is sensitive to the economic cycle.
Opportunities
- Continued shift to digital subscriptions and higher realised prices.
- Use of artificial intelligence for efficiency and data-driven journalism.
- The position in Sweden could be strengthened through digital offers and a more efficient commercial organisation.
Threats
- Strong competition from global digital platforms for advertising.
- AI-generated news services could change media consumption habits.
- Macroeconomic uncertainty and monetary policy changes can weigh on advertising.
Risks
- Decline of print advertisinghigh
Print advertising is declining structurally, and revenue from it could keep falling faster than digital compensates.
- Advertising sensitivity to the economymedium
Advertising revenue depends on the economic cycle, and a slowdown could weigh on group results.
- Distribution in Swedenmedium
Losing the Early Bird contract and closing parcel activity may bring extra costs and pressure on results.
- IT security and datamedium
Cyberattacks or leaks of personal data could damage reader trust and raise compliance costs.
- Value of the Vend stakelow
An important part of group assets is the investment in Vend Marketplaces, exposed to market risk, so its carrying value can change.
Investment thesis
What would need to be true (bull case)
- If digital subscriptions keep growing, the group could gradually turn its business model into a more recurring one less dependent on paper.
- Efficiency measures and a leaner cost base could support margins even while revenue declines.
- Strong regional brands and good liquidity give room to invest in products and technology.
What would break the thesis
- If the decline of print advertising accelerates, total revenue could fall faster than digital subscriptions can grow.
- Distribution in Sweden remains loss-making, and closing parcel activity could bring extra costs in the coming year.
- Global competition for advertising and AI-generated news services could reduce the pricing power of media houses.
What to watch

AI-generatedAI-generated analysis (Claude) from cited public sources; it may contain errors. Not investment advice. As of 27 Oct 2026 · Model: claude-haiku-5-5.
The business
Polaris Media ASA owns several of the most established local and regional media brands in Norway and Sweden, grouped into media houses such as Stampen Media in Sweden. The group earns revenue from subscriptions and reader sales, from advertising, and from distribution services for newspapers and parcels. In fiscal 2025, distribution revenue in Norway was MNOK 382 and in Sweden MNOK 320. User revenue is rising while structural decline weighs on print advertising.
Segments
Media houses (Norway and Sweden)
The media houses own regional newspapers and digital publications, with digital subscription revenue growing and forming a larger share of user revenue. User revenue grew 7% in 2025, and three in four subscriptions were already digital at year end 1.
Distribution Norway
Distribution in Norway delivers newspapers and parcels, and revenue fell in 2025 on lower print volumes. EBITDA dropped to MNOK 16 from MNOK 22, according to the annual report 1.
Distribution Sweden
Distribution in Sweden was the weakest area of the group in 2025, with negative EBITDA and a reduction of parcel activity. The parcel distribution agreement with Early Bird was terminated and the activity will fully end on 30 June 2026 1.
Market context
The media market in Norway and Sweden faces a structural decline in print and strong competition from global digital platforms for advertising. The group's advertising revenue fell 2% in 2025 while subscription revenue grew 7%, showing demand moving to paid digital products 1.
Macroeconomic conditions weigh mainly on advertising, which is more cyclical than subscriptions. Management points to uncertainty from geopolitical conflict and monetary policy, and an economic recovery could stabilise the advertising market 1.
Trends
- Shift to digital subscriptionstailwind
Digital subscriptions are growing fast and reduce dependence on print, supporting a recurring business model.
- Decline of print advertisingheadwind
Print advertising is falling structurally due to lower publication frequency and changed distribution, pressuring total revenue.
- Artificial intelligencemixed
AI could lower production costs and support data-driven journalism, but it could also create news services that compete directly with traditional media.
- Cost efficiency and restructuringtailwind
Efficiency measures and staff reductions have limited the growth of operating costs, which could support margins if revenue stabilises.
Competitive position
The group competes for advertising with global digital platforms that have strong reach in audiences and ad targeting. In regional and local press, competition also comes from other media groups in Norway and Sweden that fight for subscribers and advertising budgets.
In distribution, activity depends on print volumes and contracts with other publishers, and price and profitability pressure is constant. The group's advantage lies in its established regional brands and reader trust, which global competitors cannot easily replicate.
