Norwegian defence and technology company KONGSBERG reported an order backlog of NOK 174.2 billion at the end of the third quarter of 2026. Order intake for the quarter reached NOK 23.3 billion, compared with NOK 9.5 billion in the same period last year.
The company said revenue grew 50 per cent in the quarter, while EBIT increased by 66 per cent. Its book-to-bill ratio was 2.06.
Demand remained strong for KONGSBERG missiles, air defence systems and remote weapon stations. In July, the U.S. Air Force ordered additional Joint Strike Missiles for its F-35 fleet. Later in the quarter, KONGSBERG signed a framework agreement with the U.S. Marine Corps for production and sustainment support for the Naval Strike Missile.
