Key enablers for continued value creation

A fundamental need for more sustainable proteins for the growing world population

Global demand for salmon is increasing… …but supply growth is lagging the demand

SalMar is well positioned to utilize the organic growth potential in our value chain

SalMar with a strong development during the last strategy period

  • Strenghtened position as a leader in the industry
  • Lower cost increase compared to peers
  • Increased the difference in margin
  • Increased share of local processing
  • Largest growth in the industry
  • Pioneered and led the development offshore
  • Going forward, challenges still remain similar
  • Cost inflation, biological challenges, access to area, supply growth from new technology, increasing demand vs. supply gap

Achieved this through a strong strategic and operational focus

We have believed in a concept…

…made strategic moves that fit in…

… and we have built a strong culture

Rigorous focus on performance throughout the organization

  • Salmon farming is all about the details
  • SalMar operating a focused value chain to ensure optimal performance at each and every step – Strategic suppliers for key input factors
  • Focus is on the elements we can impact
  • Our employees are measured on the elements they can do something about
  • Strong local managment teams in each region

Recent cost inflation related to feed

  • Cost of raw materials in feed basket has been the main driver for recent increase in cost
  • Other cost elements increased due to general inflationary pressure
  • Continous monitoring of cost development – Systems in place to track our input factors
  • SalMars position as cost leader in the industry vital to secure pole position going forward

Change in production cost - farming

Internal cost development monitoring

Strong synergy potential with NRS, NTS and SalmoNor confirmed and increased

  • Estimate of total synergies increased to NOK 844 million
  • Increased 26% from previous target of NOK 671 million
  • Estimated total restructuring cost NOK 103 million unchanged
  • At the end of August 71% or NOK 597 million realized – Expect 100% to be realized at the end of 2023
  • Yearly recurring cost savings achieved through:
  • Improved operational set-up
  • Increased efficiency
  • Scale advantages
  • Strong utilization of increased license capacity in 2023
  • Increased utilization materializing in increased harvest volume from 2024

Synergi realization as of August 2023

Development MAB Utilization in 2023

Ongoing investments continuing – large industrial investments on hold
