Analyst Opinion

The Box Office market in Norway has been experiencing steady growth in recent years, driven by customer preferences for high-quality entertainment and a strong local film industry.

Customer preferences:
Norwegian audiences have a strong appetite for both local and international films, with a particular interest in high-quality productions that offer unique storytelling and immersive experiences. This has led to a rise in demand for a diverse range of genres, from drama and comedy to action and fantasy. Additionally, there is a growing trend among Norwegian moviegoers to seek out films that address social issues and promote diversity and inclusivity.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the Norwegian Box Office market is the increasing popularity of local films. Norwegian filmmakers have been successful in creating compelling stories that resonate with domestic audiences, leading to a surge in box office revenues for homegrown productions. This trend can be attributed to the strong support for the local film industry by the Norwegian government, which provides funding and incentives to promote the production and distribution of Norwegian films. Another notable trend is the growing demand for immersive cinema experiences. Norwegian moviegoers are increasingly seeking out theaters that offer state-of-the-art technology, such as IMAX screens and Dolby Atmos sound systems, to enhance their movie-watching experience. This trend has prompted theater operators to invest in upgrading their facilities to meet the rising expectations of audiences.

Local special circumstances:
Norway's relatively small population and geographical location present unique challenges and opportunities for the Box Office market. With a population of just over 5 million, the potential audience size is limited compared to larger markets. However, the Norwegian film industry has been able to thrive by focusing on quality over quantity and catering to the specific preferences of local audiences. The Norwegian government's support for the film industry through funding and incentives has also played a crucial role in the success of the Box Office market. This support has enabled local filmmakers to produce high-quality films that resonate with domestic audiences and compete with international releases.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The strong performance of the Box Office market in Norway can be attributed to several underlying macroeconomic factors. Norway has a high standard of living and a relatively affluent population, which enables people to spend more on entertainment and leisure activities, including going to the movies. Additionally, the stable and prosperous economy of Norway provides a favorable environment for the film industry to thrive. In conclusion, the Box Office market in Norway is experiencing steady growth due to customer preferences for high-quality entertainment, the popularity of local films, the demand for immersive cinema experiences, and the support of the Norwegian government. These factors, along with the underlying macroeconomic conditions, have created a favorable environment for the Box Office market to flourish in Norway.

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on the Cinema market, which comprises revenues from box office, advertsing and concessions. The market includes both consumer and advertising spending. All monetary figures refer to consumer spending on tickets and concessions. This spending factors in discounts, margins, and taxes.

Modeling approach / market size:

The market size is determined through a bottom-up approach. We use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party studies and reports, survey results from our primary research (e.g., Consumer Insights), as well as performance factors (e.g., user penetration, price per product, usage) to analyze the markets. To estimate the market size for each country individually, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific industry associations, such as various macroeconomic indicators, historical developments, current trends, and reported performance indicators of key market players. In particular, we consider average prices and annual purchase frequencies.

We apply a variety of forecasting techniques, depending on the behavior of the relevant market. For instance, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting digital products and services due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption. The main drivers are GDP per capita, consumer spending per capita, and 4G coverage.
