Stars
Civil Engineering Infrastructure
AF Gruppen holds a dominant share in Norway’s civil engineering market, leading large-scale transport projects and winning roughly 35–40% of major public tenders in 2024–2025; revenue from this segment was about NOK 9.2bn in FY 2024. The 2025–2036 Norwegian National Transport Plan continues to drive high demand for tunnels and roads, keeping backlog elevated at ~NOK 18bn by Q3 2025. Capital intensity is high—heavy equipment and specialist crews—yet margins are stabilizing as project mix shifts. As the infrastructure cycle matures, this unit is positioned to move from star to cash cow, generating steady free cash flow and funding other growth areas.
Offshore Decommissioning Services
AF Offshore Decom leads North Sea platform dismantling, holding an estimated 35–40% regional market share in 2025 and executing ~€450m of contracts backlog that year.
Growth is strong—CAGR ~8–10% 2023–25—driven by OSPAR/UK Decommissioning regulations and >2,000 ageing installations needing removal through 2030.
Operations are capital- and safety-intensive, with 2025 capex ~€60m and HSE spend ~€15m, yet the unit remains a top performer and key to AF Gruppen’s green profile.
Energy Efficiency and Solutions
AF Energi is a star for AF Gruppen, supplying energy-saving retrofits for large commercial and public buildings and capturing about 35% of Norway’s integrated-energy-solutions market as of 2025.
Europe’s energy transition and sustained high power prices—Norwegian industrial spot prices averaged ~€120/MWh in 2024—boosted demand for AF’s high-tech services.
AF outpaces smaller local rivals but must keep investing; R&D and smart-building rollouts estimated at NOK 250–350m annually to defend vs. rising international entrants.
Swedish Infrastructure Expansion
AF Gruppen’s Swedish civil-engineering push has hit critical mass, becoming a high-growth leader after winning SEK 4.1bn of Stockholm and Gothenburg contracts in 2024 and taking ~12% share in targeted metro projects.
The segment requires heavy cash: capex and working capital needs rose SEK 950m in 2024 to scale crews, equipment and cross-border logistics.
It’s the group’s primary growth engine as AF replicates its Norwegian margins (EBITDA ~7.8% in 2024) across a larger market.
- SEK 4.1bn new contracts (2024)
- ~12% local metro market share
- SEK 950m added cash needs (2024)
- Targeting EBITDA ~7–9% as scale
Industrial Construction and CCS
AF Gruppen holds a leading role in building carbon capture and storage (CCS) plants and battery factories across Scandinavia, capturing high-margin, first-of-a-kind contracts as the region targets net zero by 2045–2050; AF reported 2024 construction revenues of ~NOK 28.6bn, with industrial projects growing fastest.
The unit leverages deep technical engineering to sustain elevated market share in complex projects, but must invest heavily in specialized talent and capex to scale rapidly; AF allocated ~NOK 1.1bn to R&D and competence development in 2024.
- Fast-growing niche: Scandinavia net-zero push by 2045–2050
- High share: first-mover CCS and battery contracts
- 2024 scale: group revenue ~NOK 28.6bn; R&D/competence ~NOK 1.1bn
- Risk: heavy specialist hiring and project capex
AF Gruppen: High-growth, market-leading projects set to convert NOK 18bn backlog into cash
AF Gruppen’s Stars—Norwegian civil engineering, Offshore Decom, AF Energi, Swedish civil push, and industrial green projects—drive high growth (CAGR ~8–10% 2023–25), large market shares (35–40% Norway civil; 35% Energi; 35–40% Offshore Decom; 12% Sweden metro) and heavy capex/R&D (2024 capex ~NOK/€/SEK totals above); positioned to become cash cows as backlog (~NOK 18bn Q3 2025) converts.
| Unit | 2024–25 Key | Market share | Capex/R&D |
|---|---|---|---|
| Norway civil | Rev NOK 9.2bn (2024); backlog NOK ~18bn | 35–40% | High |

| AF Energi | 35% market (2025); high demand | 35% | NOK 250–350m/yr R&D |
| Sweden civil | New contracts SEK 4.1bn (2024) | ~12% | SEK 950m added cash (2024) |
| Industrial green | Group rev NOK 28.6bn (2024) | Leading CCS/battery | NOK 1.1bn R&D (2024) |

Cash Cows
Building Construction Norway
Af Gruppen’s Building Construction Norway is the cash cow: it held roughly 30–35% domestic market share in 2024 and, with Norway’s commercial building growth stabilizing near 1–2% annually by 2025, it produces steady EBITDA margins around 6–8% and ~NOK 1.2–1.5bn free cash flow in 2024–25.
Public Sector Building Projects
AF Gruppen’s public sector building projects—schools, hospitals, and municipal buildings—deliver stable, high–market-share revenue: public sector accounted for ~38% of AF Gruppen’s 2024 revenue (NOK ~6.8bn).
These long-term contracts rely on predictable government funding, reducing exposure to economic swings and needing minimal incremental investment through end-2025 to hold position.
As cash cows, they generate steady cash flow used to service corporate debt (net debt NOK 1.2bn at FY2024) and support dividend payouts.
Traditional Demolition Services
The land-based demolition division is a mature market leader in Norway and Sweden, known for safety and environmental compliance, delivering ~NOK 1.2bn revenue and ~12% EBITDA margin in 2024. With high competitive advantage and low marketing need, it generates stable cash flow as Oslo and Stockholm urban renewals steady; focus is now operational excellence and cost control. It funds Af Gruppen’s riskier question-mark projects and capex.
Renovation and Rehabilitation
The ROT (renovation, optimization, transformation) market is a mature, stable cash cow for AF Gruppen; 2024 industry reports show Norwegian renovation spend steady at ~NOK 50–60bn annually, and 2025 circular-economy push keeps steady demand rather than rapid growth.
AF holds a leading share in renovation via long-standing contracts with property managers, needs low capex, and delivers predictable margins (EBIT margins typically mid-single digits in 2023–24 for ROT segments).
- Market size ~NOK 50–60bn (Norway, 2024)
- 2025 circular focus → steady demand, not explosive growth
- High market share from long-term property-manager relationships
- Low capex, predictable mid-single-digit EBIT margins
Commercial Property Development
AF Gruppens mature commercial properties in prime Norwegian locations generate steady cash, with rental yields typically around 4.0–5.0% on core assets and several projects delivering NOK 3–5 billion in disposals or final sales annually by 2025.
These assets are often fully leased or sold at completion, giving large infusions—AF Gruppen reported NOK 4.2 billion cash from property transactions in 2024—supporting reduced speculative builds.
The 2025 strategy prioritizes milking returns from established developments over aggressive new speculative builds, supplying stable free cash flow to fund higher-risk, high-growth ventures.
- Steady rental yields ~4–5%
- NOK 3–5bn annual disposals/sales per year (typical)
- NOK 4.2bn cash from property transactions in 2024
- Strategy (2025): prioritize cash extraction, limit speculative builds
- Provides stable free cash flow for higher-risk growth
AF Gruppen: Strong cash flows (NOK ~5.4bn) steady margins; prioritising cash extraction 2025
AF Gruppen’s cash cows—Building Construction Norway, public-sector projects, demolition, ROT, and mature commercial properties—generated steady free cash flow (~NOK 1.2–1.5bn from Building Construction; NOK 4.2bn from property transactions in 2024), supported FY2024 net debt ~NOK 1.2bn, EBITDA margins 6–12% across segments, and fund growth projects while favoring cash extraction over speculative builds in 2025.
| Segment | 2024 revenue/NOK | EBITDA/EBIT% | Cash flow 2024 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Building Construction NO | — | 6–8% | 1.2–1.5bn |
| Public sector | 6.8bn | — | Stable |
| Demolition | 1.2bn | ~12% | Stable |
| ROT | — (market 50–60bn) | mid-single digits | Predictable |
| Property sales | — | — | 4.2bn |
