  • Bakkafrost has to some extent a natural hedge with large import of raw materials in USD
  • So far Bakkafrost has not been hedging currency risks

  • NOK reduced value in 2015 against most currencies, but regained somewhat in Q1 2016

  • This means that the competitive advantage gained in 2015 for Norwegian export was more flat in Q1 2016, as a big share of costs are priced in NOK
  • RUB has lost value since April 2015, and is now at its lowest
  • The consumption in Russia is negatively affected by the development
