Warning! This is a task that requires mathematical and economical skills.
You are going to write a report geared towards investors who are considering investing in the Norwegian stock market. You must choose a company that has been listed on the Oslo stock exchange for at least 5 years, and you CAN NOT choose one of the following companies:
1. Statoil
2. Telenor
3. Norsk Hydro
4. SalMar
5. Lerøy Seafood Group
6. Marine Harvest
7. Norway Royal Salmon
8. Grieg Seafood
9. Norwegian Air Shuttle
10. Scatec Solar
11. Kongsberg Gruppen ASA
12. Ekornes
13. Yara International
14. Entra
15. Orkla
16. Medistim
17. Byggma
18. Olav Thon Eiendomsselskap
19. Aker ASA
20. Bakkafrost
21. Kitron ASA
I have already chosen Wilh. Wilhelmsen Holding, but you can choose another company if it’s easier to access information that is relevant to the task. Keep in mind that Wilhelmsen has 2 companies listed on the Oslo stock exchange, so you will have to choose one of them.
I have uploaded the course description, which also includes the main source for this financial report, which is Corporate Finance by Hillier, Ross, Westerfield, Jaffe and Jordan. I think you also should be able to find a free e-version of the book online. I’ve uploaded all the information that the teacher has given so far, and will possible upload more files later if the teacher does so as well. But you have more than enough sufficient information to complete the task already now, and if you’ve done a financial report earlier that’s even better. Just write me a message at your earliest convenience of which company you have chosen so I can inform my teacher about it. Keep in mind that it’s only the main body of the task that needs to be 25 pages. You will find all the necessary information in the materials that are included, but send me a message anyway if anything is unclear. Even if the sources you can use to complete the task is unlimited, try to use the main source as much as possible. Thank you, and good luck!
