Operational EBIT and operational EBITDA are 2 APMs utilised by the Group, which are commonly used in the farming industry. In order to meet managements, investors and analysts need of information in terms of performance and comparability between peers, these APMs have now been adopted by the group. They replace the previously used APMs EBIT before fair value adjustments related to biological assets and EBITDA before fair value adjustments related to biological assets.
In operational EBIT and operational EBITDA some items are excluded. The main item excluded is fair value adjustment on biological assets. The reason for exclusion is because this adjustment has nothing to do with the Group`s operational performance. The change in fair value arises from changes in forward prices on salmon at Fishpool. Another item to be excluded is onerous contract provision. This item is indirectly related to biological assets, since loss on onerous contracts is calculated based on the increased value on fish in sea from the fair value adjustment. In addition, the production fee, implemented from 2021, on slaughtered volume of salmon and trout, has also been excluded. This is explained with the fact that the production fee is tax related. It was adopted as an alternative to resource rent tax. Further on, isolated events not expected to reoccur, such as litigation costs, are excluded. For practical reasons, a materiality threshold of MNOK 15 is applied.in LSG Group. This type of cost is not considered relevant for the current operation, and thus not relevant when analysing the current operation. Finally, change in unrealised internal margin on stock, has been excluded. Feedback from investors and analysts have been that this item is perceived as confusing when evaluating the operational performance of the period. Since it is a non-significant part of the result of the period, it has been excluded from the APMs.
The Group`s joint ventures and associated companies are significant enterprises in their segments and represents substantial values for the Group. Income from joint ventures and associates are therefore part of the operational EBIT.
