OSLO, Norway, Feb. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Multiconsult ASA (OSE: MULTI)
Multiconsult ended the year with another stable quarter, despite continued pressure from rising costs and a persistently high level of competition.
Net operating revenues increased by 5.4 per cent to NOK 1 521.5 million, with organic revenue growth of 3.9 per cent when adjusted for the calendar effect.

The board of directors proposes a dividend of NOK 5.00 per share to be paid as ordinary dividend for 2025.
"The development seen in the previous quarters regarding pressure on rates and a high competitive market continues, and the strong measures we outlined last quarter to address these issues are being implemented as planned.
