Winston Score History

The full picture

SkiStar is a Swedish company that owns and operates ski resorts. It runs some of the largest alpine ski destinations in Scandinavia, including Sälen, Åre, and Vemdalen in Sweden, plus Hemsedal and Trysil in Norway. The company sells lift passes, ski rentals, ski school lessons, and accommodation to winter sports vacationers, mostly families and recreational skiers.

SkiStar earns money through a mix of lift ticket sales, lodging rentals, equipment hire, and ski instruction fees, with most revenue concentrated in the November-to-April ski season. It operates almost entirely in Sweden and Norway, making it heavily exposed to Scandinavian weather patterns and consumer spending. The company holds a strong regional position because it owns the physical mountain infrastructure, which is difficult and expensive for competitors to replicate. The main risk is climate change, which threatens reliable snowfall and could shorten or disrupt ski seasons over the long term, even with artificial snowmaking investments.

Cash watch

SkiStar AB has less than a year of cash at its current burn rate. Growth investors should watch for potential share dilution from future fundraising — that directly reduces your ownership.

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
