Regulatory update

• All Norwegian brands in the Fjordkraft Group are successfully certified in accordance with DNV GL's "Trygg Strømhandel" ("Safe electricity purchasing")
• Comprehensive process of certification with requirements that go further than the mandatory Norwegian legislation on several matters
• A customer compliance officer has been employed in order to monitor and further increase the focus on compliance going forward
• Fjordkraft has issued a writ regarding the termination of Fjordkraft's payment solution "Full Kontroll", which enables the customer to pay the same amount each month in order to ease out fluctuations. The service is in line with EU regulations (EU Directive EU2019/944) that is expected to be implemented also in Norway
• There are no maximum price regulations in the Nordic markets, with reference to the situation in UK where several retailers have defaulted due to the elspot price being higher than the maximum price allowed to charge end users

Hedging strategy

• In order to adapt to the demand of more predictable electricity costs, and to increase the predictability of Fjordkraft's purchase price, Fjordkraft have started to hedge a larger portion of the variable contract portfolio
• Fjordkraft utilise hedge accounting on the majority of the financial contracts related to the variable products in Norway
• The market price and the value of the financial contracts may change rapidly and the price level at quarter end does not reflect the price in the period of delivery
• Due to Fjordkraft's volume and the limited liquidity in the financial market, Fjordkraft will not disclose further details on the hedging strategy
