Stars
Norsun Solar Wafer Production holds a leading ~28% share of the premium monocrystalline wafer market and generated NOK 420m revenue in 2024, making it Holta Invest AS’s growth engine as global demand for high-efficiency components rose 12% in 2025 YTD.
Planned capacity expansion needs ~NOK 1.1bn through 2026; despite capex, Norsun’s low-carbon electrolysis and 0.45 kg CO2e/W production advantage secure its strategic star status.
Holta Invest AS has captured roughly 18% market share in Northern Europe’s large-scale green infrastructure segment after 2023 expansion, driven by wins in offshore wind and grid-scale storage projects.
These assets face high sector growth—national grid decarbonization raised capex flows 22% CAGR 2021–2025—boosting revenue visibility through 2025.
Although upfront capex exceeds EUR 1.2bn per major project, rapid asset-value appreciation (estimated +30% 2022–2025) and strategic grid importance offset financing strain.
Holta Invest AS’s Advanced Manufacturing Technologies unit is a star: reshoring boosted EU demand 18% in 2024 and 22% in 2025, driving unit revenue growth to €78m in 2025 (up 34% YoY) and EBITDA margin ~21%. Continuous R&D spend equals 7.5% of revenue (€5.85m in 2025) to sustain tech lead against German and Taiwanese rivals, supporting a projected CAGR of 19% through 2027.
Strategic Green Real Estate Development
Strategic Green Real Estate Development is a Star: Norway’s carbon-neutral commercial buildings saw 28% rent premium in 2024 and 22% annual leasing growth in Oslo’s premium eco-office segment, giving Holta Invest AS high market share versus traditional office stock.
Holta continues heavy capex—≈NOK 1.1bn allocated in 2025 to finish three flagship projects—supporting expected IRR of ~9–11% over 10 years and positioning the portfolio for long-term yield compression.
- 28% rent premium (2024)
- 22% leasing growth (Oslo premium, 2024)
- NOK 1.1bn capex earmarked (2025)
- Projected IRR ~9–11% (10y)
Active Growth Equity Fund
Active Growth Equity Fund targets high-growth tech scale-ups and has captured early market share in digitalization, with several holdings—notably industrial software firms—reaching market-leader status by end-2025 and reporting combined ARR growth of ~85% YoY.
The fund still consumes cash to fund expansion, with portfolio capex and opex totaling NOK 420m in 2025; management aims to convert these stars into future cash cows through scaling and margin expansion.
- Captured early market share in digitalization
- Several leaders by end-2025 (industrial software)
- Combined ARR growth ~85% YoY
- Portfolio cash burn NOK 420m in 2025
