NATURAL CONDITIONS

BAKKAFROST – A WORLD CLASS SALMON FARMING COMPANY

Margin diverted since 2010

  • Compared to a large selection of production in Norway, EBIT per kg has diverted significantly since 2010
  • The absolute improvement for Bakkafrost is a function of
  • Robust farming framework with ability to maintain biological control
  • Market recognition of high end product (price achievement)
  • Efficiency in the value chain

Price and EBIT per kg

RECORD PRICES, YET CHALLENGING TO RETAIN WINDFALL PROFITS

  • Global output has generally exceeded practical capacity given current tools (technology, regulations, industry cooperation/ practice and pharmacy)
  • Pending progress in the constraining factors, nature responds by increased biological problems and in turn escalating costs
  • The Faroe Islands implemented a robust, scalable regime after its biological issues in 2003
  • The Faroese production has hence become an exception and in a position to retain windfall profits

BIOLOGICAL CONTROL – CRITERIA 1 A GOOD REGULATORY FARMING ENVIRONMENT

Biological meltdown paved way for robust regulatory regime

During the period 2001-2004 the Faroe Islands were severely struck by ISA outbreaks

New legislation and regulation was introduced in 2003 known as "The Faroese Veterinary Model":

  • One generation based farming model
  • Fallowing periods between each generation
  • Immunisation and vaccination programs
  • Restricting movement of equipment and fish
  • Density limits introduced
  • Brood stock facilities allowed on land only
  • Fish for harvest not allowed in open waiting cages at harvest stations
  • Minimum distances between farms and hatcheries
  • Rules to fight and control sea-lice introduced

The Model has resulted in one of the most predictable fish production environments in the world with good KPI for salmon farming, such as FCR, Mortality and Growth rate

Source: Bakkafrost, Kontali

The mortality rate with the Faroese Veterinary Model has been between 5 and 10%, compared to 20 to 25% before – although the annual production has never been higher than now

BIOLOGICAL CONTROL – CRITERIA 2 FEW PLAYERS IN EACH PRODUCTION REGION

  • A tight regulatory regime is not enough
  • A large number of decisions will always be left to the operators
  • As opposed to most other industries, operators are directly exposed to each others behaviour
  • Efficient production requires a high degree of cooperation in the waters, e.g.
  • Coordinated fallowing periods
  • Coordinated lice treatment in direction of current
  • Hard to get «all the ducks in a row» as coordination will always carry a cost to some operator, e.g.
  • Requirement to await next generation to join new fallowing regime
  • Self-reporting of disease in order to protect surrounding farms

Highly fragmented industry, except Faroes

The "tragedy of the commons" is challenging to avoid in a fragmented industry

BIOLOGICAL CONTROL – CRITERIA 3 MINIMISE EXPOSURE TO OTHER COMPANIES IN EACH PRODUCTION AREA

Structure of production zones

  • Strong regulatory framework
  • Few players to agree on coordination of unregulated matters – avoids "tragedy of the commons"
  • Limited overlap of players within production zones
  • Swaps have enforced each players "independence"

Licenses

  • Existing licenses are operated on a 12-year rolling lifespan system
  • Automatic renewal unless
  • Failure to fulfil the veterinary conditions
  • Conflict with governmental or municipalities' planning areas
  • Conflict with animal welfare
  • Conflict with environmental protection
  • License give right to utilise given area of fjords for farming fish
  • No MAB, but strict regulative measures on farming activity maintaining environmentally sustainability

Risks

  • Biological risk
  • Diseases, such as ISA, PD, AGD etc.
  • Sea lice
  • Weather condition storms
  • Price of salmon
  • Geopolitical situation market access
  • Fishery and quotas in the North Atlantic Ocean raw material for FOF segment
  • Feed contaminants
  • Financial risks
  • Foreign exchange risk
  • Credit risk
  • Counterparty risk
  • Liquidity risk

SIZE AND SURVIVAL MATTERS!

  • Yield per smolt a key KPI
  • Function of average harvest weight and mortality
  • Faroe Island performs on both parameters

2010-2012G vs 2013G

Average mortality (%) 2010-2012G vs 2013G

30,00

SIZE AND SURVIVAL MATTERS!

Significant benefits of yield per smolt performance

  • Larger fish generally catches a price premium; early/accelerated harvest is punisher with discount
  • Healthy fish keeps costs down
  • Low mortality
  • Less treatments, better feed conversion and faster growth
  • Fixed cost dilution with larger size 1,30

THE MARKET IS WILLING TO PAY UP FOR PREMIUM PRODUCTS

  • Consistent large sized fish forms baseline for price premium
  • Bakkafrost has further tailored its product for the premium market through
  • Investing in very high inclusion rates of marine raw materials
  • Development of a demand driven value added processing franchise
    • Including capability of "upgrading" parts of ~10% of fish normally sold at discount as "downgraded" due to skin scars, deformities etc.
  • Superior market access as the Faroe Islands is rarely part of recurring trade sanctions/embargos/dumping duties etc.

Price differential, Norway/Faroes

MARINE RAW MATERIAL IS A FINITE RESOURCE

  • Fishmeal and fish oil key raw material for aquaculture (salmonids in particular)
  • Extracted from wild catch (pelagic fish) with finite supply
  • Growing demand requires reduced inclusion rates

Constant marine raw material availability

BAKKAFROST OFFERS A PREMIUM PRODUCT

  • Supply constraints makes fish oil and fish meal costly ingredients
  • Keeping the diet closer to the natural diet of wild salmon provides measurable benefits
  • Healthier nutritional profile of end product
  • Superior meat structure
  • Higher production efficiency due to animal welfare has positive impact on non-feed cost elements

HEALTHY FEED

  • Local raw materials
  • High marine ingredient in feed
  • A different taste taste of the Faroe Islands
  • Full traceability
  • Certifications and quality systems
  • Fish oil cleaned for pollutants

TRADE PATTERNS DRIVEN BY LOGISTICAL COSTS AND TRADE BARRIERS

Trade barriers

Trade issues such as the Russia sanctions and strained relationship between Norway and China favours "independent" origins

KONTALI'S FORWARD LOOKING ESTIMATES FOR OUTPUT

FACTORS DRIVING HIGHER GROWTH

  • Lower sea lice pressure Norway reduced treatment
  • Faster development of alternatives to antibiotics, for control/combat of SRS - Chile
  • Higher & faster than expected granting of development licences - Norway
  • Positive sea lice situation through 16/17, allowing for full, green "traffic-light" based capacity growth
  • Improvement in survival/yields particularly in larger regions
  • Implementation larger smolt taking place faster than anticipated

FACTORS DRIVING LOWER GROWTH

  • Low and slow issuance of development licences Norway
  • Continued high prevalence of SRS & sea lice Chile Limiting earnings & cash flow
  • Negative sea lice-situation in 16/17, reducing "traffic-light" based capacity growth
  • Set-backs linked to biology or fish-health related issues Particularly Norway / Chile
  • General deterioration in productivity factors, such as survival, yields etc.

"We can provide fresh high quality marine based feed to Bakkafrost's salmon within 3 hours from landing of pelagic fish"

HAVSBRÚN - FOF

Separate business unit with its own P&L

  • Value increase of fish by-product, fish offcuts
  • Fish not suitable for human consumption
    • Fish for which there is no market
  • Rejected pelagic fish for human consumption

FACTS – HAVSBRÚN (FOF)

Production capacity

  • Conversion of 2,000 tonnes of raw material per day to fishmeal and oil
  • 550 tonnes of feed per day

Large storage capacity

  • 4,800 tonnes of raw material
  • 35,000 tonnes of fishmeal
  • 13,500 tonnes of fish oil
  • 3,000 tonnes fish feed

NO NEED TO IMPORT RAW MATERIAL FROM AFAR

Optimal raw material availability

  • Blue Whiting
  • Winter Capelin
  • Summer Capelin
  • Mackerel
  • Herring

Short distance from fishing grounds to feeding the salmon

  • Blue Whiting concentrated south of Faroe Islands
  • New pelagic fleet with super cooling system

  • Since 1998 Blue Whiting is main species

  • Blue Whiting requires high power (new technology) fishing vessels
  • Since 1998 the quantity has been below 200,000 tonnes in the period from 2009 - 2014

New Pelagic industry in the Faroe Islands

  • The Faroe Islands have built a large pelagic processing industry since 2012
  • By-products / fish offcuts important resource
  • Bakkafrost can apply these products sustainably
  • No conflict with human consumption

Salmon guts

Additional raw material will be available from the new processing/VAP plant for processing of salmon meal and salmon oil

Benefits from large pelagic industry

3 HOUR'S FROM RAW FISH TO FEEDING THE SALMON

Short distance from fishing grounds to feeding the salmon

  • Blue Whiting concentrated south of Faroe Islands
  • New pelagic fleet with super cooling system
  • A unique 3 hours process step
  • A marine based recipe
  • Advantages in key factors
  • Consumers are able to taste the difference

MARINE RAW MATERIAL IS A FINITE RESOURCE

  • Fishmeal and fish oil key raw material for aquaculture (salmonids in particular)
  • Extracted from wild catch (pelagic fish) with finite supply
  • Growing demand requires reduced inclusion rates

Constant marine raw material availability

BRANDING BAKKAFROST SALMON

Special high-performance feed

  • Higher content of marine ingredients, compared with industry standard (Natural diet)
  • Especially rich in Omega 3 fatty acids
  • Purified fish oil

Produced of fish from sustainable quotas

  • Produced from off-cuts and fish, which is not used for human consumption
  • Only use of non GMO-ingredients
  • Total traceability from initial catch to final feed
  • Locally caught fish used for the feed

BAKKAFROST OFFERS A PREMIUM PRODUCT

  • Supply constraints makes fish oil and fishmeal costly ingredients
  • Keeping the diet closer to the natural diet of wild salmon provides measurable benefits
  • Healthier nutritional profile of end product
  • Superior meat structure
  • Higher production efficiency due to animal welfare has positive impact on non-feed cost elements

Standard feed recipe 2016E(1)

Over the last 20 years inclusion of marine ingredients have been reduced from 72% in total to 44% in total

Marine ingredients reduced over time Inclusion rates of marine ingredients in Bakkafrost feed

Fish Meal Fish Oil

Cleaning of fish oil

  • In Q1 2015 Havsbrún started cleaning all relevant fish oil used for Bakkafrost salmon
  • Cleaning of the fish oil removes and reduces environmental pollutants
  • By cleaning pollutants we expect to remove doubts regarding salmon intake
  • Should make intake limitations for salmon redundant
  • Salmon feed with purified fish oil is new in the global salmon market and could be a differentiator

  • Lowest mortality

  • Best fish welfare
  • Highest yield per smolt
  • Highest harvest weight
  • Lowest FCR
  • High growth - high TGC
  • Highest fillet yield, low harvest yield
  • Highest in Omega 3
  • Highest market price

Main objectives

  • Zero disease, zero lice and low environmental impact
  • Efficient feed conversion (EFCR to HOG of about 1,3)
  • Low mortality (<5%)
  • Growth (TGC) of 3.0 3.2 (between 17.2 18.3 months from 100 gram to 5.2 kg HOG)

• To gradually introduce larger smolt in order to limit exposure to biological issues and avoid bottlenecks in the value chain

Fuglafjørður is the fourth largest town of the Faroe Islands with 1,514 citicens (01.01.2015). The town is located in Eysturoy, and is the home of Havsbrún. The harbour in Fuglafjørður is busy, as the town's economy is based on the processing of fish and fishmeal. There is fishing-industry, a slip, production of trawl and also oil-depots.

Where the Gjógvará stream meets the sea in the village, archaeologists have discovered the remains of a Viking longhouse, seventeen metres (56 feet) in length, with walls 1.5 metres (4 feet 11.1 inches) thick. It was found by removing four or five more recent layers of ruins, showing a continuity of habitation for many centuries.

In the 1840s, the small village Hellur north of Fuglafjørður was established. However, this village never grew large and now only approximately 30 of the municipality's inhabitants live there.

In the 1980s, the suburb of Kambsdalur was established, and now about 180 of the population in the municipality live here. In Kambsdalur there is also a large industrial cluster, the educational centre of the northeastern Faroes and the regional sportscentre used mainly for handball, volleyball and indoor football.

LEARNED FROM A HARD LESSON – ROBUST SCALABLE FRAMEWORK

During the period 2001-2004 the Faroe Islands were severely struck by ISA outbreaks

New legislation and regulation was introduced in 2003 known as "The Faroese Veterinary Model":

  • One generation based farming model
  • Fallowing periods between each generation
  • Immunisation and vaccination programs
  • Restricting movement of equipment and fish
  • Density limits introduced
  • Brood stock facilities allowed on land only
  • Fish for harvest not allowed in open waiting cages at harvest stations
  • Minimum distances between farms and hatcheries
  • Rules to fight and control sea-lice introduced

Source: Bakkafrost, Kontali

The mortality rate with the Faroese Veterinary Model has been between 5 and 10%, compared to 20 to 25% before – despite the annual production has never been higher than now

BAKKAFROST / Capital Markets Day 7 June 2016 Page 87

COORDINATED PRODUCTION AND REGULATIONS KEY SUCCESS FACTOR

  • Strong regulatory framework
  • Few players to agree on coordination of unregulated matters – avoids "tragedy of the commons"
  • Limited overlap of players within production zones
  • Swaps have enforced each players "independence"
  • Existing licenses are operated on a 12-year rolling lifespan system
  • Automatic renewal unless
  • Failure to fulfill the veterinary conditions
  • Conflict with governmental or municipalities' planning areas
  • Conflict with animal welfare
  • Conflict with environmental protection
  • License give right to utilise given area of fjords for farming fish
  • No MAB, but strict regulative measures on farming activity maintaining environmentally sustainability

ASC SERTIFICATION PROCESS

  • The Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) has defined a certification system together with WWF
  • Objective to minimize or eliminate the key negative environmental and social impacts of salmon farming
  • Difference from other standards:
  • Measureable parameters /common indicators
  • Bakkafrost had its first site certified in 2015 and expect all sites to be certified by 2020
  • 2015: First certification A 25 Gøtuvík
  • 2016: A-06 Gulin already audited, expected certification mid 2016
  • 2017: A-57 Fuglafjørður og A-71 Funningsfjørður
  • 2018: A-12 Kunoyarnes

  • The standard has 7 main principles/criteria with key indicators

    1. Legal compliance (obeying the law, the legal right to operate)
    1. Preservation of the natural environment and biodiversity
    1. Preservation of water resources
    1. Preservation of diversity of species and wild populations, e.g. preventing escapes
    1. Responsible use of animal feed and other resources
    1. Animal health no unnecessary use of antibiotics and chemicals
    1. Social responsibility, e.g. no child labour, health and safety of workers, freedom of assembly, community relations
  • Main practical implementation challenges/process changes include:
  • Compliance to threshold of 9 lethal incidents marine mammals/birds per 2 years
    • Requires diligence wrt. entaglement etc.
  • Reduce copper levels by discontinuing copper impregnation of nets
  • Compliance to tight upper limit for parasitic treatment index through:
    • Bigger smolt size to reduce exposure to biological threats in sea water stage
    • Non medicinal solution, e.g. fresh water treatment in new well boat, lumpfish, thermolicer

QUALITY MANAGEMENT INTEGRATED IN ON-GOING INVESTMENTS

  • The construction teams have had quality management as an integral part of the ongoing construction projects in order to secure optimal adaptation to the various certification criteria
  • Bakkafrost has a central quality management team, which has supported the implementation
  • Bakkafrost has initiated a number of investments aimed at improving quality, biosecurity and ability to rapidly solve undesired events. Investments are also aimed at reducing emissions and improving HES factors and general efficiency

Examples within farming and fish transport:

  • Larger sea water farming cages resulting in lower density
  • Central surveillance of oxygen measurement including alarms, in order to improve reaction time when low oxygen levels are measured
  • Gradual phasing out the use of cobber impregnated nets
  • Improved well boat capacity
  • Reduced handling of fish, which in turn reduces stress levels and improves the quality of animal welfare and the quality of the product
  • Efficient lice filters

  • Examples within primary processing and VAP:

  • New electric stunning system
  • Improved cooling chain
  • Optimal utilisation of gutting machines through sorting of based on sizes
  • Reduced risk of microbiological contamination through securing appropriate production flow
    • Hygienic design
    • CIP cleaning
    • In house styropor box production
  • Integrated Innova quality module
    • Electronic registration
    • Eases possibility to run trend analysis for optimisation, focus areas and traceability
  • Green profile
    • No transport of flamingo boxes and plastic fish boxes between sites
    • Use of surplus heat from the styrofoam plant
    • Disinfection of surplus water
