• 2021 volume guidance of 445k GWT reiterated

Outlook

  • We believe in a tighter market balance
  • Demand on the road to full recovery driven by less restrictive Covid-19 measures
  • Global supply growth projected to be only 2% for 2021
  • Previous low price levels and a shift in demand towards more elaborated products expected to boost demand post Covid-19
  • Mowi well positioned to capitalise on a recovery
  • Contract share deliberately reduced for 2021 to position the company to benefit from increasing prices
  • Farming volume guidance of 445k GWT for 2021 reiterated
  • Quarterly dividend payment in Q2 2021 of NOK 0.77 per share

Dividend policy

  • Mowi's ambition is to create long-term value for the shareholder through both positive share price development and a growing dividend in line with long-term earnings
  • − Quarterly ordinary dividend shall under normal circumstances be at least 50% of underlying earnings per share (EPS)
  • − Excess capital will be paid out as extraordinary dividends
  • When deciding excess capital the Board of Directors will take into consideration expected cash flow, capital expenditure plans, financing requirements and appropriate financial flexibility. Further to this a long-term target level for net interest-bearing debt is determined, reviewed and updated on a regular basis
  • Shareholder returns are distributed primarily as cash dividends with the option of using share buybacks as a complementary supplement on an ad-hoc basis
