VRTQ · Launching soon

Know what you own

VRTQ breaks down Swedish-listed companies in plain language — what they do, who runs them, and whether the people in charge have a track record worth trusting. Independent. No commissioned research.

VRTQ is not yet live — join the waitlist to be first in. This is information and analysis, not personalised investment advice.

How it works

01

Search a company or a person

One search bar. Companies and the people who run them are treated as connected entities, so you can start from either and end up at the other.

02

See everything already public

A plain-language business summary, the full board and management, and the largest shareholders — collected in one place and aggregated free of charge.

03

Unlock the layer underneath

Click into any person to see their track record across every other company they have been involved with, and what happened to those companies.

See how it works

A full breakdown of one company, in the format VRTQ will use at launch.

Illustrative example — not a real company. Nordkedja Group AB is fictional and exists only to demonstrate the format.

Nordkedja Group AB

Builds and services automation systems for industrial supply chains — the software and hardware that moves goods through warehouses and factory lines. Most revenue comes from long-running service contracts with Nordic manufacturers.

Share price

14.80 SEK

Market cap

~740 million SEK

P/E ratio

~19x

What a P/E of ~19x actually means

The whole company is priced at roughly 740 million SEK, and it earns around 39 million SEK a year in profit. So you are paying about 19 SEK for every 1 SEK of yearly profit — at today's profit level, it would take about 19 years of earnings to pay back the price. A higher number means buyers expect profits to grow; a lower number means they doubt it, or see risk.

Board and management

Largest shareholders

  • Malmborg Invest AB18.4%
  • Nordisk Kapitalförvaltning11.2%
  • Fond Sverige Småbolag7.9%
  • Birgitta Sandell (private)4.1%
  • Other shareholders58.4%

Financial health

Revenue has grown steadily for four years, and the company has been profitable in each of them. Debt is modest relative to earnings, and cash covers the next two years of repayments. The main weak point is customer concentration: the three largest customers account for a little under half of revenue, so losing one would be felt immediately.
