It was Finansavisen that mentioned the case first. Earlier this year, the boat manufacturer had to cut down on staff from 49 to 42. The company had a turnover of just under NOK 73 million last year. The deficit was NOK 36 million. The deficit last year is mainly due to increased costs of goods and other costs that have increased, according to the board&#8217;s report for last year. The company in Fredrikstad has 26 employees. It was the board of the company that filed for bankruptcy, according to the district court&#8217;s ruling. The reason is that Hydrolift is unable to meet its financial obligations. &#8211; It is very sad. It&#8217;s like having a friend with cancer that you know can&#8217;t survive. Finally, when he takes his last breath, Eker says about the bankruptcy of the newspaper. &#8211; The figures are a bit unclear. In the accounts, a debt of just over NOK 151 million is listed, and values \u200b\u200bfor just under NOK 78 million, according to the district court&#8217;s ruling on the opening of the bankruptcy. But even though there are listed values \u200b\u200bfor 78 million, the board of the company believes that the real values \u200b\u200bare lower. The company has accumulated a debt of around NOK 160 million, says B\u00e5rd Eker to finansavisen. The company has produced leisure boats in the size 22 to 32 feet. According to the board&#8217;s report, in recent years Hydrolift has invested in all-electric zero-emission ferries for its sister company HYKE. The main market is in Norway, but last year they also invested in the foreign market. 84 percent of sales last year went abroad. &#8211; We are struggling. We haven&#8217;t had proper accounting, so the figures are a bit unclear, says Eker, who does not want to elaborate more on this.
