Resource tax proposal

  • 28th of September 2022 the Norwegian Government proposed to implement a new resource tax, with additional 40% tax on profit generated in the open sea phase of farming
  • The proposal has immediate and long-term negative effects for the industry, which includes significant reductions in investments as well as making it basically impossible to do contracts
  • Hearing on the proposal until 4th of January 2023, with the tax concluded in parliament before summer 2023. The tax will take effect from 1st of January 2023. The process adds significant uncertainty
  • Lerøy has invested significantly also in human capital and to build an integrated value chain for seafood. A value chain that meets customers need and drive demand for salmon. The proposal is challenging for integrated business models, and has a significant risk of lowering the demand for Norwegian salmon
