(Nettavisen): Brothers Bård and Vegard Ylvisåker in the comedy duo Ylvis has long been among the most profitable comedians in Norway
However, after a record year in 2016, where the production company of the brothers Concorde TV has paid 4.6 million, 2017 a slowdown.
Although the production company 's turnover rose from ten million to 41 million, the year' s result in Concorde fell to 2.7 million.

Increased costs
This is due to a sharp increase in operating costs, from 25 to 37 million NOK.
However, the CEO of the company, Hans Christian Lindmo, will not comment
– I do not want to comment. We do not tend to do it. We are eager to make good TV, says Lindmo to Nettavisen
Due to the much lower annual result, the brothers are much less distinguished from the company. While Concorde could overthrow owners of NOK 4.6 million in dividends last year, dividends have been reduced to 1.7 million this year.
This means that each of the brothers received 374,000 Concorde crowns this year (they own all 22%), compared to more than one million the year before.
Ylvis' major commitment last year was the musical series "Stories of Norway". As the brothers themselves described as "an expensive series" to produce.
The seals were disappointing after a very good start, and three out of four viewers left the series during the season
Nettavisen did not comment on Ylvis' manager, Jørgen Thue.
