LOW FEED CONVERSION RATE
STRONGER GROWTH



Industry average = 1.27**
+1 kilo
Extra growth compared to Skretting's growth table
Energy use per kilo produced salmon
97.5%
Industry average = 83.3%*
Source: *Fish Health Report 2023, ** 2022 industry average

Industry average = 84%**


First report covered first six months in pool
Second report covers the entire first production cycle
Underlines Andfjord Salmon's sciencebased approach to land-based fish farming
Extensive examination of biological conditions, fish welfare and fish health
"Andfjord Salmon applied a very comprehensive welfare and health documentation plan for the first production cycle."


PATENTED LAMINAR WATER FLOW: Overview of the sampling points for horizontal and vertical water and velocity profiling of the system prior and during salmon production at Andfjord Salmon





LAKSVEL: Standarized method to monitor salmon welfare.




SMOLT RELEASE Smolt weight: 100-150 grams

AFTER 3 MONTHS Smolt weight: 500 grams









Significant surplus pool capacity at the start of each production cycle enables post-smolt production
10% increase in biomass turnover
Shorter runway to revenue, positive cash flow effects

Initial production plan approved by the Norwegian Directorate of Fisheries

Agreement in place with Eidsfjord Sjøfarm/Holmøy Havbruk to farm post-smolt for locations near Kvalnes for upcoming production cycles
INCREASES EBIT
Strong fundamentals for post-smolts drives an estimated 15-25% increase in EBIT by utilising this combined production strategy

More robust fish released in combination with shortened production time in sea bring multiple biological and environmental benefits

Appendix




Post-smolt is salmon that has become accustomed to seawater for a long period and weighs up to approx. 1 kg.
Smolt is salmon that weighs approx. 100 grams and has recently been introduced to seawater.

Post-smolt is a more robust fish, considered to be a key to further growth in the Norwegian salmon farming industry, since it provides improved sustainability and fish health.





ADDITIONAL POST-SMOLT PRODUCTION HUMAN GRADE SALMON PRODUCTION

Harwest weight: 4-6 kg

Enhanced cooperation between ocean-based and land-based farmers = positive for regional economic development




• Enables a closer working relationship with conventional farming partners in the region, and enhances smolt supply access

• Andfjord Salmon becomes a strategic partner to conventional farmers with added competence and infrastructure sharing


Substantial demand for post-smolt due to the major benefits of shortening the ocean-based grow-out phase


Ocean-based fish farmers keen on releasing larger, more robust fish into net pens as this offers multiple biological and environmental benefits
Surplus space in land-based pools following release of smolt can be used for further growth
SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTION
Norwegian aquaculture industry is dedicated to achieving even more sustainable salmon production

The combination of land and ocean-based farming is a unique opportunity for Norway and the Norwegian salmon farming industry

*Post-smolt are salmon that have grown accustomed to seawater over a long time and are approximately 1 kg in size.
