From backyard beginnings to world leadership

Since the Mowi adventure started in 1964, we have continued to invest in our value chain and today enjoy full control of our product, from the parental broodstock to sales. It's a remarkable story. From its humble beginnings, when a few pioneers started farming fish in their backyards, Mowi has become a global leader in its field.

60 years later, our investments in areas such as genetics, smolt, value-added processing and smart technology have transformed our business and now place us in a leading position that few foodproducing companies can match.

was close to 40 million postsmolt, equivalent to a quarter of Mowi's annual smolt production. The postsmolt share in Mowi Norway was 50% when excluding the naturally more resilient Region North, and approx. 30% in Mowi Scotland.

Mowi also continues to pursue accretive M&A opportunities. At the beginning of 2025, Mowi entered into a share purchase agreement to increase its ownership in Nova Sea from 49% to 95%. Nova Sea is a leading fully integrated salmon farmer in production area 8 in Northern Norway and covers the value chain from broodstock and smolt production to harvesting and sales. The company expects to harvest 52k GWT of salmon in 2025. Mowi has been a large minority owner in Nova Sea since 1995 and knows the company well. Nova Sea is a pioneer of the Norwegian aquaculture industry and is known for its excellent biological performance and industryleading margins. Over 50 years, the company and the Olaisen family have invested in the organisation and developed it into an impressive operation. It is therefore with great pleasure that we are now, after 30 years, combining our operations (subject to customary closing conditions, including approval from competition authorities).

Mowi's 2029 volume target announced at the Capital Markets Day in September 2024 has been increased from 600k GWT to exceed 650k GWT with Nova Sea on board. For the group, this translates into annual growth of 6.1% since 2018, or as much as 225k GWT. To put this figure into perspective, it is about the annual volumes harvested by the world's second largest salmon farmer. Mowi has indicated an investment need of approx. EUR 600 million to reach this volume target. The group now expects to reach 600k GWT already in 2026, with Mowi Norway alone expecting to exceed 400k GWT in 2029.

2024 was a record year for Mowi and the company achieved several milestones. Operational revenue of EUR 5.62 billion was the highest ever, driven by record-high volumes of 502k tonnes. In the Farming segment, seawater production was the best ever, and stocking of postsmolt to sea reached a new high. Furthermore, Mowi set new volume and revenue records in Consumer Products and Feed, as well as all-time high annual earnings in Feed. Operational EBIT for the group was EUR 829 million, equivalent to underlying earnings per share of EUR 1.05. The company has delivered on its three strategic pillars – volume growth, cost competitiveness and sustainability. These achievements were only made possible by the dedication and hard work of Mowi's employees.

The world needs more food Ivan Vindheim Chief Executive Officer

Group operational revenue was EUR 5 617 million (EUR 5 513 million) driven by all-time high volumes, while market prices were slightly down. Price achievement was also affected by quality downgrading in Norway in the first half of the year.

In Farming, harvest volumes for 2024 were all-time high at 502k GWT (475k) following strong production and increased smolt stocking. In our three largest Farming units, Norway, Scotland and Chile, volumes were record-high with new production milestones achieved.

Volume growth across our business areas is a key value driver and one of Mowi's strategic pillars. Growth within Mowi Farming has been impressive in recent years, and 2024 marked another good year with all-time high harvest volumes of 502k GWT, equivalent to growth of 5.7% vs. industry supply growth of 1.3%. In 2025, Mowi's volume guidance is 530k tonnes, representing another year of solid growth equivalent to 5.7%. This is supported by record-high biomass in sea which was 10% higher year-on-year. As recently as 2018, harvest volumes were 375k GWT, hence we will have grown our farming volumes by 155k GWT in the period to 2025, equivalent to a CAGR of 5.1% versus a projected CAGR for the industry of 2.8%. This is mainly organic growth, and Mowi has initiated further initiatives that are still expected to contribute to additional organic volume growth. The most important initiative in this respect is postsmolt, i.e. robust and large smolt which has several advantages. By increasing smolt stocking and producing postsmolt, Mowi will further improve its license utilisation. Postsmolt production increases license turnover, improves biological KPIs through shorter production time in sea and better survival rates, and reduces cost. At the end of 2024, postsmolt capacity in Mowi

Ivan Vindheim Chief Executive Officer

Harvest volumes GWT (1 000): Mowi performing better than the overall industry in volume growth with CAGR 6.1% vs. 3.1%

This impressive volume growth has been realised in the last years, following a more growth-focused and Farming-oriented strategy for Mowi which resulted in the implementation of a long list of measures. In the years preceding the large merger back in 2007, volumes were in fact quite stable until 2019 onwards.

Consumer Products, our value-added leg, delivered Operational EBIT of EUR 145.8 million (EUR 151.7 million) equivalent to ROCE of 19.0%, and record-high volumes of 247k tonnes product weight. These are stellar results in a highly competitive business. Mowi's Smart Factories concept, managed by our global Mowi Processing Excellence Team, drives the introduction of more modern technologies and automation across our factories to reduce cost and increase value. Mowi also continues to develop new innovative and high-quality products that are easily accessible to our customers, to keep pace with constantly evolving food habits. Our branded MOWI products have supported these developments by growing consumer awareness and loyalty to our products. MOWI is now a trusted name in 16 countries across Europe, the US and Asia, and Mowi will continue its branding strategy unabated in 2025 and the years ahead.

Mowi Feed can also celebrate its best year so far with Operational EBITDA of EUR 62.2 million. Sold volumes reached a new record high of 585k tonnes for the full year, up 12% year-on-year following strong growth in sea and consequently good feed demand. To cater for growing feed demand, Mowi Feed is expanding the Norwegian feed plant with a new production line adding 60k capacity. This brings the capacity of our two state-of-the-art feed mills to 460k tonnes in Norway and 240k tonnes in Scotland, i.e. 700k tonnes capacity in total. In March 2025, Mowi initiated a strategic review of the Feed division. In just a few years, Mowi has grown from a 400k GWT farmer to approaching a 600k GWT farmer with production in seven countries and 11 farming regions with all the complexity that entails. Mowi also has an extensive downstream business. In order to streamline our operations, the time is ripe to assess how our Feed division will be organised in the future. The review will assess all available options, including a sale.

On cost, Mowi is the best or second best performer in all the regions where we farm salmon. We are now also the best performer in Norway, based on average figures for the last three years. We are also ahead in our downstream operations. Cash cost-to-stock fell throughout 2024 driven by lower feed prices and consequently we expect lower P&L released-from-stock cost in 2025. Furthermore, we expect the positive feed price development to continue. In 2024, the organisation delivered on its cost-cutting targets for the year, achieving EUR 42 million in annualised savings. A total of EUR 327 million in annualised savings has been achieved since Mowi's cost savings programmes began in 2018. Addressing cost has become engrained in Mowi's workflow, and the company has initiated another global cost savings programme for 2025 with a target of EUR 30 million of savings during the year which comes in addition to targeted savings in the areas of postsmolt, Mowi 4.0, productivity and efficiency. At the Capital Markets Day in 2024, Mowi announced a total cost reduction potential in the range of EUR 300-400 million over the coming five years.

Mowi decided in 2020 to include a productivity programme in the cost savings programme, targeting a 10% reduction in FTEs for the company as-is by 2024. By year-end 2024, FTEs had been reduced by a total of 3 161 FTEs on a like-for-like basis, equivalent to a full 21%. FTEs in 2024 were 13 806, 6% fewer than 14 998 in 2019, despite 15% higher volumes, and consequently we have over-delivered on the 10% like-for-like target set back in 2020. In 2025, the target is to reduce FTEs by another 300 through the productivity programme.

For the sixth consecutive year, Mowi was ranked top in the Coller FAIRR Protein Producer Index, the comprehensive assessment of the largest listed animal protein producing companies on critical environmental, social and governance issues. Mowi's mission to provide sustainable and healthy food to a growing world population is crucial. To yet again occupy the top position in the prestigious Coller FAIRR ranking is extremely encouraging and demonstrates that Mowi is at the forefront of sustainable food production. Salmon has superior sustainability credentials, including carbon footprint, compared with other animal proteins. Mowi's salmon production

Feed

Mowi's feed performs very well, which is an essential quality as feed is the most important input factor in salmon production. Mowi is self-sufficient for feed in Europe with our state-of-theart plants in Valsneset, Norway and Kyleakin, Scotland. Sold volumes reached 584 586 tonnes for the year, an increase of 12% from 2023 on good growth in sea and higher volumes, and consequently higher demand for feed. Operational EBITDA came in at EUR 62.2 million (EUR 52.1 million), equivalent to a margin of 5.5%. Mowi Feed's core assets include a 460,000 tonnes feed mill in Norway and a 240,000 tonnes feed mill in Scotland, i.e. a combined capacity of 700,000 tonnes. These figures include an ongoing 60,000 tonnes capacity expansion in Norway expected to be fully operational in Q2 2026. In March 2025, Mowi initiated a strategic review of the Feed division. The background is Mowi's significant growth in farming volumes the last few years, and the complexity related to being a 600k GWT farmer with production in seven countries and 11 farming regions. Mowi also has an extensive downstream business. In order to streamline our operations, now is the time to assess how our Feed division will be organised in the future. The review will assess all available options, including a sale.

Farming

Mowi Farming works along three strategic pillars: Volume growth, cost, and sustainability. In recent years, Mowi has achieved strong results across all these areas. With regards to cost, Mowi Farming is competitive and is the best or the second-best cost performer vs. peers in the regions in which the company operates. The company has implemented a culture which is more focused on cost and FTEs to address the underlying inflation and cost pressure in the industry. On sustainability, Mowi has been ranked #1 amongst listed animal protein producers for the sixth consecutive year, and survival rate, seawater production rate and feed conversion ratio were all improved in 2024 vs. 2023. The ramp-up of postsmolt volumes and the ongoing implementation of Smart Farming and other Mowi 4.0 technologies are expected to have a positive impact not only on productivity and costs, but

saves the world 2 million tonnes of CO2e emissions annually by replacing the corresponding amount of land animal protein production. In addition to the positive ESG credentials with regards to the product itself, Mowi has ambitious targets for further reducing the carbon footprint related to the company's activities.

Mowi is by far the largest producer of salmon, a scientifically proven natural superfood. Salmon is versatile and appeals to people of all ages with its highly appetising taste, look, texture and colour. The megatrends driving salmon demand are strong and driven by health trends and a growing need for more low-carbon diets, more food from the ocean and less ultra-processed food. With its size, integrated value chain, global market presence and focus on operational excellence, Mowi is well positioned to capitalise on these megatrends. Mowi, with a proud 60-year history going back to the very start of the salmon farming industry, is working on many important initiatives that will further develop the company and propel it into the future. In Farming, we are working along three main pillars; volume growth, cost and sustainability. In Sales & Marketing, we are putting the customer at the core of all our activities related to products, branding and operational excellence. As regards the Feed division, we continue to work on operational improvements and cost optimisation, and it is encouraging to see that our feed is performing very well.

In 2025, Mowi will continue to invest across the value chain to support further organic growth and strengthen the asset base. The capital expenditure budget for 2025 is approximately EUR 310 million, up from EUR 290 million in 2024, with the majority of investments allocated to the Farming segment. Three large postsmolt investments in Norway have already been completed, and in 2025 we will invest further into selected seawater expansion initiatives across our farming footprint, as well as finalising the new broodstock facility in Scotland. We are also investing in postsmolt in closed containment systems in sea as well as lice lasers and submerged pens. In addition to the expected positive operational and financial effects, these investments will contribute to our efforts to further improve fish welfare and sustainability. Furthermore, Consumer Products expects to undertake several automation and packaging technology projects, and Mowi Feed is investing in increased capacity.

With effect from 2 April 2025, 25% tariffs have been imposed on goods imported from Canada to the USA. The situation is fluid and it is difficult to see how this will play out, including other countries. Mowi will continuously monitor any developments related to this subject and will be prepared to redistribute our volumes from our seven origins with respect to prevailing trade policies at any given time to best serve our customers.

We believe in a positive market outlook for the company. Supply growth has been limited in recent years and we do not expect significant volume growth for the industry in the next five years. This would under normal circumstances be supportive of good salmon prices. We expect global megatrends to continue to drive demand for salmon and we expect demand growth to outpace supply growth, despite short-term headwinds from the generally increased cost of living, particularly in the US. With good operational performance as a backdrop, the organisation is well set to deliver on its ambitious targets over the coming years.

also on fish welfare and sustainability. When it comes to volume growth, Mowi Farming has grown more than the industry, and based on 2025 guidance of 530,000 GWT (excluding Nova Sea), volume growth since 2018 equals 155,000 GWT or 5.1% CAGR vs. 2.8% for the wider industry. In Mowi Norway, our largest and most important farming entity, harvest volumes reached a record-high level of 304k GWT in 2024 and license utilisation and production efficiency are industry-leading. The guidance of 315k GWT for Mowi Norway in 2025 implies growth of 85k GWT since 2018 and an impressive CAGR of 4.6% vs. 3.1% for the industry. Mowi's goal is to continue to capture market share in the salmon category in the coming years by growing its farming volumes, both organically and acquisitively. Mowi has initiated further organic growth initiatives, including postsmolt, which are expected to contribute to continued volume growth above the overall industry level.

In 2021, Mowi Farming launched a venture into postsmolt. Following completion of the Fjæra (Norway Region South) and Nordheim (Norway Region Mid) facilities in 2023 and the Haukå (Norway Region West) facility in 2024, approx. 40% of the postsmolt programme in Mowi Norway is completed. Mowi Norway also has postsmolt production in semi-closed containment systems in sea. The results of these investments are now beginning to show and at year-end 2024, the postsmolt share in Mowi Norway was approx. 50% when the naturally more resilient Region North is excluded from the equation. In Mowi Scotland, the share was approx. 30%, and the total postsmolt capacity in Mowi was close to 40 million postsmolt, equivalent to a quarter of the smolt produced annually. This is expected to further improve license utilisation and result in improved biological KPIs including survival rates and average harvest weights.

Ivan Vindheim Chief Executive Officer

Mowi owns 51% of the shares in Icelandic salmon farmer Arctic Fish. Mowi's clear goal is to develop Arctic Fish into a streamlined and cost-effective operation. Volume guidance for 2025 is 15,000 GWT, and volumes are expected to increase steadily in the coming years.

Mowi also has some inherent growth opportunities in its operations in Ireland and the Faroes. Combined volume guidance for 2025 from these two regions is 20,000 GWT.

Mowi's volumes should increase beyond 650,000 GWT by 2029 through reaping the fruits of the postsmolt investments completed so far and adding on the volumes from Nova Sea. The company would then still have organic growth opportunities within the current license footprint. This comes in addition to further potential M&A activities and purchasing of additional capacity. Mowi's clear strategy is to continue to grow more rapidly than the industry as a whole.

Sales & Marketing

This division contains all our downstream activities, including our steadily growing production of consumer-ready products. Operational results for Consumer Products were strong with Operational EBIT of EUR 145.8 million. Demand was generally good, and Consumer Products sold a record-high 247 333 tonnes of finished products, proving that putting the customer at the core of everything we do downstream bears fruit and creates unique customer experiences.

Mowi will further enhance our value proposition downstream in the years to come, and our branding strategy, with its ultimate goal of de-commoditising the salmon category, will play a key part in this. Demand for our MOWI-branded products is increasing. We have great belief in our MOWI brand strategy, and our long-term target of EUR 1 billion in turnover at 10% earnings margin remains in place.

Within our Sales & Marketing division there is a strong focus on automation and digitalisation, where our cross-border Processing Excellence team has been tasked with realising improvements in our processing plants. By establishing benchmarks and best practices, the team will continue to focus on automation and the right use of technology to further improve our processing operations, ensuring efficient and lean factories. We are the largest value-added operator in the salmon sector with 33 primary and secondary facilities in 20 countries and our plans to realise further operational improvements continue unabated.

Sustainability

Farming the ocean holds the key to ensuring a stable, healthy and sustainable food source for a growing world population. Aquatic food is a nutritional powerhouse, rich in protein, essential fatty acids, vitamins and vital minerals. It provides income and jobs, particularly in coastal regions, and supports flourishing local economies and communities. The benefits of farming the ocean extend to our planet as well. The ocean provides billions of people with nutritious food, with a much smaller environmental footprint than land-animal food production. In fact, a dietary shift from landbased animal protein to aquatic food is recognised as a vital step towards achieving more sustainable food systems.

In recent years, food systems and in particular aquatic or blue food systems have been high on the agenda with increasing recognition of their potential to solve global planetary challenges such as food insecurity and climate change. In 2024, FAO released its updated State of the World Fisheries and Aquaculture report (SOFIA), showing for the first time that aquaculture has surpassed capture fisheries in aquatic animal production, contributing over 57% of aquatic animal products used for direct human consumption. This significant milestone underscores the growing importance of aquaculture in meeting global food demands, with production expected to increase by 10% by 2032, driven by aquaculture expansion. Continued high consumption of food products with high GHG footprints, including land animal proteins, contributes unnecessarily to the emissions of agrifood systems. We believe that aquaculture and salmon farming are well positioned to facilitate a much needed dietary shift and to deliver food from the ocean in a sustainable way.

We remain committed to the principles of the United Nations' Global Compact and to maximising our contribution to its Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). At Mowi, we pursue an integrated sustainability strategy where long-term targets have been established for all our guiding principles: Planet, People, Product and Profit. For the first year Mowi is reporting on the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) from the EU.

Our sustainability strategy, Leading the Blue Revolution Plan, reflects Mowi's commitment to sustainable development. In 2024, we continued the implementation of our sustainability strategy, and demonstrated progress in key strategic programmes and reduction in Mowi's scopes 1 and 2 GHG emissions in line with our Science Based targets (SBT). Mowi has set climate targets aligned with 1.5° C which also include reduction in GHG emissions from Forest, Land and Agriculture (FLAG). We continue to develop new policies and update existing ones to reflect the input we get from our stakeholders. It is encouraging that our work in this area has been recognised, including by the Coller FAIRR Protein Producer Index which Mowi topped for the sixth consecutive year. The index assesses 60 of the largest listed global meat, dairy and aquaculture companies on ten environmental, social and governance themes aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Overall, Mowi was rated 'Industry Best' on many of the criteria aligned to the SDGs including sustainability governance, water use & scarcity and waste & pollution. In 2024, Mowi was also named one of world's most sustainable companies in the world by Time Magazine.

'Leading a Blue Revolution' is not easy but we believe Mowi's unique strengths – our global presence, being fully integrated and being a front runner on innovation and R&D – will make a positive impact in the world.

Chile's efforts to further improve operations, the use of freshwater treatments have been ramped up, with good results so far.

With regards to Canada, the imposition of 25% tariffs on goods imported from Canada to the US with effect from 4 March 2025 adds uncertainty. The situation is fluid and it is difficult to see how this will play out, including other countries. Mowi monitors developments and is prepared to redistribute volumes from our seven origins with respect to prevailing trade policies at any given time to best serve our customers.

In addition to tariffs, framework conditions for Mowi Canada West have been adversely impacted by the authorities' decision in June 2024 to ban traditional marine salmon farming from mid-2029. Consequently, Mowi Canada West is a 20k GWT level operation with uncertain future prospects. Following the political decision, Mowi initiated a strategic review of the Canada West business unit and will explore all available options before taking appropriate action.

The situation related to tariffs is also negative for Canada East. In this region, Mowi has experienced several environmental and biological incidents since the acquisition of Northern Harvest in 2018. However, in the last few years, ISA detections and sea lice levels have improved and the region has secured a steady improvement in farming performance and biological KPIs. The cost curve has also improved considerably. On the back of improved biological control and reduced cost at stock, volumes are expected to increase in the coming years. Volumes were 8k GWT in 2024 and are guided to increase to 16k GWT in 2025. Mowi still has many unused licenses in this region and there is significant potential for growth. The government decision in Canada West related to licenses does not affect Canada East.

In Scotland, Mowi has experienced increasingly challenging environmental conditions over the past few years, driven by rising seawater temperatures, and this has also negatively impacted cost. This development calls for more robust salmon and a shorter production cycle in sea in order to, amongst other things, avoid a second summer and autumn in sea. With this in mind, Mowi acquired the Dawnfresh bankruptcy estate's Loch Etive trout sites in 2023 and has converted sites from trout production to postsmolt salmon production. The first postsmolts were transferred to ordinary marine sites in 2024 and will be harvested in 2025. At year-end 2024, postsmolt coverage in Scotland was 30%, with lower capital expenditure, shorter realisation time and lower running production cost than an equivalent land-based solution. Another important part of Mowi Scotland's biological turnaround plan is to become self-sufficient for eggs. Mowi Scotland is therefore constructing a new bespoke broodstock and egg facility at Ardessie in Northern Scotland. When complete in 2025, it will provide a secure supply for 100% of Mowi Scotland's egg requirements. Mowi Scotland is also developing new sites to utilise new licenses awarded in recent years. 2025 volumes for Mowi Scotland are guided at 70k GWT, up from an all-time high 66k GWT in 2024. In 2029, expected volumes are 80k GWT, and processing capacity is being expanded to handle this increase.

In Mowi's operations in Chile, overall biology and cost performance have been good. Mowi expects to grow volumes from 73k GWT in 2024 to 77k GWT in 2025 and plans to increase volumes in the coming years in line with the traffic light system in Chile which aims at controlling the industry's sanitary situation. In 2029, expected volumes are 95k GWT. Mowi Chile continues to focus on efficient production and low cost, and one of the recent initiatives is a trial of a new SRS vaccine. As part of Mowi

Stakeholders

Our corporate foundation

We believe that by farming the ocean, we can sustainably produce healthy, nutritious and tasty food for society at large. 70% of our planet is covered by water, yet the United Nations Food and Agriculture organisation (FAO) estimates that only around 2% of the world's food caloric supply comes from the ocean. This includes both farm-raised and wild-caught fish. We know that global consumption of farm-raised seafood will increase in the future, both in terms of overall volumes and as a percentage of the global food supply. The biennially FAO report (Sofia, 2024) on the state of world fisheries and aquaculture estimates that rising incomes and urbanisation, improvements in post-harvest practices and changes in dietary trends are projected to drive a 12% increase in aquatic food consumption by 2032, reaching an average of 21.3 kg per capita.

The Mowi way – From vision to action

Our financial results are created through interaction between people, the natural environment and technology. Our goal is to find an optimal combination of these elements to create long-term success, whilst understanding that our growth must be environmentally, socially and financially sustainable. To manage the risks that may prevent us from reaching our goals and delivering on our strategy, we have developed the "Mowi Way". The Mowi Way combines our vision, values, strategy, leadership, and our guiding principles.

Our vision

Our vision, "Leading the Blue Revolution", gives direction and outlines possibilities. The possibilities lie in the increased need for protein to supply a growing and increasingly prosperous world population with healthy, sustainable food products. We believe the most efficient way to produce more protein is by farming the ocean.

Guiding principles

The way we operate our business is centred around our four guiding principles that underpin our vision and behaviour: Planet, Product, People and Profit. Balancing the four principles is a prerequisite for Leading the Blue Revolution and creating long-term value. This ensures that we continue to deliver a premium product with minimal negative impact to the environment that also generates value for the local communities in which we operate, as well as focusing upon delivering healthy shareholder returns and ensuring access to capital.

Our strategy

We aim to be an integrated provider of proteins from the ocean, taking the lead in all key areas. By integrating the value chain, we can control our products from roe to plate, and be more proactive in addressing various challenges. We see research and development as an integral part across our value chain, which differentiates Mowi within the industry.

From Vision to Action

Vertical integration

We believe there are benefits to vertical integration, due to the greater capacity it gives us to control the production process. We refer to activities which occur after farming (i.e. secondary processing) as downstream operations, and activities occurring prior to farming (i.e. feed production) as upstream operations. Our integrated production helps us stabilise costs, control the quality of our products and improve efficiency. Over time, vertical integration is expected to result in more stable earnings and unlock future growth. We expect to be less exposed to the cyclical nature of salmon prices, and to be better able to control the quality of our products. An important prerequisite for building the MOWI brand and gaining brand awareness is to gain consumer trust, and through Mowi's integrated value chain, we believe that the company can differentiate the way our products are perceived, positioned and sold.

Our leadership principles

Taking the lead is about setting a course and taking responsibility, and our leadership principles provide an important guide for managers' behaviour:

Inspire people: We recruit the very best and build talent for the future. We strive to create winning teams and challenge people to succeed.

Make it happen: We challenge existing thinking and promote change and innovation. We encourage people to propose solutions and learn from mistakes.

Live the values: We want our leaders to be role models and build our culture; leaders should show direction and engage with stakeholders.

Think and act: We want our leaders to think and act as if the company was their own. Leaders should do what is best for the company, bearing in mind both our short- and long-term goals.

Our values

Our global values — Passion, Change, Trust and Share — inspire us to act in the right way and are key enablers for reaching our goals. Passion for the company and the product: Passion is the key to our success and how we make a difference.

Change is the new "normal": We are ready for change and work continuously to improve our operations.

Trust is essential in everything we do: Our operations provide safe, delicious and healthy food, and we deliver on our promises. Share underpins the performance of our employees: We share knowledge and experience, we are open and transparent, and we cooperate with key stakeholders globally.

Overall Group Performance in 2024

Operational revenues in 2024 amounted to EUR 5 616.6 million, an increase of 1.9% from 2023. This was driven by record-high harvest volumes of 501 530 tonnes gutted weight of salmon in 2024, up from 474 664 tonnes in 2023. Market prices were slightly reduced from a high level in 2023, and quality downgrading in Norway in the first half of the year had a negative effect. Operational EBIT came in at EUR 828.9 million in 2024, compared with EUR 1 027.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease was driven by lower achieved prices. While cash cost to stock decreased during 2024, realised P&L cost in Farming increased somewhat from 2023 driven by previous inflation. Our earnings before financial items (EBIT) totalled EUR 758.6 million in 2024, compared with EUR 981.0 million in 2023. We achieved a return on capital employed (ROCE) of 15.5% in 2024, above our long-term target of 12.0%. The comparable figure for 2023 was 21.3%. At year-end, the Group had a net interest-bearing debt (NIBD) of EUR 1 867 million, above the long-term NIBD target of EUR 1 700 million. The NIBD target will be revised following closing of the Nova Sea acquisition. NIBD at yearend 2023 was EUR 1 790 million.

The Market in General

Supply

2024 marked a year with lower global commodity prices as rising cost of living in an inflationary environment took its toll on consumer demand in many end markets. The salmon market was not insulated

Reference prices

The reference price for salmon of Norwegian origin decreased slightly in the market currency from a high level in 2023. This was also the case for Seattle prices. The average price in Miami increased by 3.4% for the year, and the Boston/New York reference price decreased by 6.1%.

from these effects, however, demand fundamentals for salmon fared quite well in this context all the same. The overall global value for salmon at farm gate prices was estimated at approx. EUR 20 billion in 2024 which was stable versus 2023. The estimated global blended salmon price declined marginally by 1% on a global supply increase of 1%. Market expectations for 2025 are favourable with an expectation of higher salmon prices on recovering demand and modest supply growth. Global industry harvest volume of Atlantic salmon was approximately 2 541 500 tonnes gutted weight in 2024. This was 25 200 tonnes more than in 2023, an increase of 1.0%. Supply from Norway increased by 28 000 tonnes in 2024 on generally improved biological KPIs in sea resulting in improved production and harvesting. Supply from Scotland increased by 31 200 tonnes, equivalent to 22.6% y-o-y, due to improved biological conditions, improved fish welfare and higher survival rates. Supply from Chile decreased by 59 400 tonnes on slightly lower growth than expected in the start of the year and some delayed harvesting into 2025.

Global consumption increased by 3.0% in 2024 compared with 2023 including inventory adjustments. The estimated global value of salmon remained at a record-high level, demonstrating the strong underlying growth drivers for salmon as a nutritious and sustainable source of protein.

Consumption in the EU and the UK increased by 5.6% compared with 2023 on increased supply and product availability. Overall, the European market experienced good demand developments in the retail segment with the fresh category leading the way. Demand developments within the foodservice segment, on the other hand, were relatively stable. In the last part of the year the foodservice sector saw some higher activity, indicating some rebound from the downturn caused by the increased cost of living.

The US market consumed close to 600k tonnes, equivalent to a market share of 22%. After several years with growth in excess of the wider market, consumption was reduced by 3.1% in 2024. Availability of volumes from Chile was reduced vs. 2023. While the US market lags somewhat behind Europe in terms of demand recovery, the retail channel experienced volume growth. The fresh pre-packed category continued to drive retail developments.

Consumption in the Asian market increased by 6.2% compared with 2023 with good growth in all key markets. Availability of larger sizes improved during the year which aligned with strong demand in the foodservice segment.

In 2024, the contract share varied between the different business units. The Group's overall contract share was 27%, the same level as in 2023. The contract share for Norwegian origin was 23%.

The overall share of the volumes sold as superior quality was 87% in 2024, slightly down from 88% in 2023 and below the group target of at least 92%. Superior share was negatively affected by quality downgrading in Norway. This was the result of an unusually cold winter combined with a less efficacious vaccine for winter sores in recent years, compounded by the largest prevalence of string jellyfish for 20 years. On a positive note, biology in Norway in the 2024/2025 winter season has improved significantly following an improved vaccine for winter sores, operational improvements, less prevalence of string jellyfish as well as higher temperatures.

Segment Reporting

The following is a presentation of our operating performance by business segment, using Operational EBIT per kg of fish harvested as a key measure of performance. The table below shows Operational EBIT for each of our operating segments for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023:

Feed

Operational EBITDA for our Feed segment of EUR 62.2 million was record-high and up from EUR 52.1 million in 2023 on good volumes and strong operational performance. Operational EBIT in 2024 ended at EUR 46.8 million, up from the previous year (EUR 35.5 million). Feed raw material costs have improved for most input factors, including marine ingredients, compared with 2023. The two most recent anchovy wild catch seasons in Peru in 2024 were strong with regards to volumes and yield, and this has contributed to a favourable raw material price development. Operational EBITDA margin was 5.5%, up from 4.9 % in 2023.

Mowi Feed's core assets include a 460,000 tonne feed mill in Norway and a 240,000 tonne feed mill in Scotland. The two top modern mills have a combined capacity of 700,000 tonnes including an ongoing 60,000 tonnes capacity expansion expected to be fully operational in Q2 2026. In 2024, Mowi Feed sold 584 586 tonnes, up from 523 167 tonnes in 2023 driven by good growth in our farming operations, and supplied 96% of the feed requirements of Mowi's European salmon farming operations in 2024 (95% in 2023). In March 2025, Mowi initiated a strategic review of the Feed division. The review will assess all available options, including a sale. The background for the strategic review is that Mowi has grown significantly in Farming in just a few years, and is approaching 600k

Our Markets

Geographic market presence

Our main source of revenues is sale of Atlantic salmon. Europe is by far the largest market for our salmon, representing approximately 70% of our total revenues in 2024 (71% in 2023). Mowi experienced good sales growth in most European countries. The UK, France and Germany continue to be very important markets.

Compared with 2023, the relative share of sales to the American market increased slightly related to increase of harvest volumes in Canada and Chile. The relative share of sales to the Asian market in 2024 was relatively stable compared with 2023.

Sales by product

The share of sales related to salmon products increased slightly compared with the previous year, at 94.7% and 94.1% of our revenues for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 respectively. Fresh whole salmon (i.e. primary processed salmon) represented 50.7% of our total revenues in 2024, relatively stable from 50.2% in 2023. In the same periods, elaborated salmon, including smoked/marinated, MAP, sushi and other prepared and value-added products accounted for 49.3% and 49.8% of our revenues respectively.

For the market in general, the foodservice segment represents approx. 40%, while the retail segment represents approx. 60%.

Mowi has an aim of further increasing our capacity to produce elaborated and value-added products, which generally command more stable consumer prices. In line with this strategy, we have opened new value-added plants in several countries in recent years, and we have also expanded several of our existing plants. Consequently, we have good coverage of the main markets in Europe, the US and Asia.

Price achievement

As described in the previous section, market prices were somewhat down in 2024 from a high level in 2023. With regards to price achievement relative to the reference price, this was somewhat reduced in Norway driven by quality downgrading in the first half of the year. This effect was offset by improved price achievement in Scotland and other regions. Consequently, Mowi achieved a combined global price 2% above the weighted reference price in 2024, same as in 2023. Relative to the reference price, contract sales including contribution from Consumer Products made a positive contribution also in 2024.

GWT with production in seven countries and 11 farming regions with all the complexity that entails. Mowi also has an extensive downstream business. In order to streamline our operations, the time is ripe to assess how our Feed division will be organised in the future.

Farming

Farming's Operational EBIT totalled EUR 443.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2024, compared with EUR 682.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2023. The reduction from the 2023 Operational EBIT was mainly driven by lower achieved prices and realisation of higher cost. These effects were partly offset by higher volumes. Although realised P&L cost increased, cash cost to stock was reduced during 2024, and cost at stock per year end was EUR 0.13 per kg LWT lower than the year before, driven by feed price decreases. This is expected to contribute to lower realised P&L cost in 2025. Mowi Farming continued to be the best or second best cost performer vs. peers in the various farming regions. Volumes were all-time high at 501 530 tonnes up from 474 664 in 2023, an increase of 5.7% y-o-y. Stocking of postsmolt to sea was all-time high in 2024 and volumes are expected to increase by another 5.7% to 530k GWT in 2025, excluding Nova Sea. For details of our farming entities' operational performance, please see the comments under Operational performance by country of origin.

Sales and Marketing

Our Sales & Marketing operations consist of the reporting segments Markets (trading-related activities) and Consumer Products (valueadded operations).

Markets

Markets' Operational EBIT for the year came to EUR 206.5 million, compared with EUR 170.1 million in 2023. Revenue increased driven by higher volumes. The earnings effect of approx. EUR 29 million of upgrading downgraded salmon in Norway is included in the Markets segment and was higher than normal in 2024 due to the challenging winter sore situation.

Consumer Products

volumes and continued first-class operational performance. The volume sold ended at 247 333 tonnes end-product weight, an increase from 232 169 tonnes in 2023.

Europe

Consumer Products Europe benefited from strong operational performance and increased volumes. Revenue increased on higher volumes. Good efficiency in production, value chain optimisations and yield improvements contributed positively. However, margin pressure compared with 2023 had a negative influence on earnings. Retail development was good overall, while foodservice was relatively stable.

Americas

Mowi Consumer Products is geographically organised, but constitutes one reporting segment. Consumer Products' Operational EBIT for the year ended December 31, 2024 came to a EUR 145.8 million, slightly down from EUR 151.7 million in 2023. The negative effect of margin pressure in Europe was partly offset by higher Our Operational EBIT for salmon of Norwegian origin was EUR 616.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared with EUR 831.5 million in 2023. The results were negatively affected by reduced prices, partly offset by all-time high volumes and

Volumes and earnings in Consumer Products Americas were relatively stable in 2024 compared with 2023. Earnings in the Chilled segment were good, while the Fresh segment in the US experienced margin pressure due to a more sluggish market, especially in the first half of 2024. Compared with Europe, the US market is still somewhat behind on the recovery curve. However, we expect demand to work itself out in due course. The second half of the year saw positive developments in the fresh pre-packed category in the retail segment.

Asia

Our Asian operations saw increased volume in 2024 compared with 2023. Operational performance was strong in most units. Improved availability of larger sizes as the year progressed had a positive impact, and this aligned with positive demand developments in the foodservice segment.

strong operational performance. Full cost per kg salmon increased somewhat from 2023 on realisation of previous feed inflation. Other cost items were relatively stable y-o-y. Operational EBIT per kg was EUR 2.03 compared with EUR 2.82 in 2023. Our EBIT for salmon of Norwegian origin was EUR 685.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared with EUR 853.4 million in 2023. EBIT per kg was EUR 2.26 in 2024 compared with EUR 2.90 in 2023.

Price and volume developments

Harvest volumes of 303 501 tonnes in 2024 were the highest ever, and volumes are set to further increase to 315k GWT in 2025 excluding Nova Sea. Volumes in 2029 including Nova Sea are expected to exceed 400k GWT.

The reference price for Atlantic salmon of Norwegian origin in 2024 was reduced from record-high levels in 2023. Furthermore, price

achievement was negatively impacted by quality downgrading in the first half. Since 2020, the winter sore vaccine has become less efficacious. This, combined with an unusually cold winter and the largest prevalence of string jellyfish for 20 years, negatively impacted superior share and prices. A new winter sore vaccine, helped by operational improvements, less string jellyfish and higher temperatures, have led to significantly improved biology in the 2024/2025 winter season.

Our price achievement for the year ended December 31, 2024 was 3% below the reference price, compared with price achievement at the reference price level in 2023, driven by lower superior share of 83% vs. 86% in 2023. Contribution from contracts, including Consumer Products, was positive in 2024, same as in 2023. The contract share was 23% in 2024, compared with 25% in 2023.

Costs and operations

Performance in Mowi Norway was strong in 2024 with all-time high seawater production and harvest volumes, high license utilisation and increased smolt stocking. Biological KPIs were improved, including net production and feed conversion ratio. Performance in Region West and Region South was particularly positive, while financial and biological performance in Region Mid was at a lower level than the other three regions.

Region West had another strong year with strong biological KPIs and financial results, all-time high volumes and the highest margin of the four regions in Norway. Region South also had record-high volumes, and the region saw improvements in biological performance vs. 2023 and a margin at the same level as Region North. Region North was impacted by somewhat lower volumes impacted by a PD incident towards the end of 2023, and experienced more pressure than usual from environmental conditions in 2024. Region Mid had another challenging year and the turnaround process is ongoing. Environmental conditions and low volumes negatively impacted full year results for this region.

Full cost per kg for salmon of Norwegian origin harvested in 2024 increased slightly compared with 2023, as lower feed cost was offset by inflationary pressure on other items. Sea lice mitigation and treatment costs were relatively stable compared with 2023, and development of non-medicinal tools and methods continued in collaboration with Mowi's Global R&D and Technical department. Incident-based mortality costs totalled EUR 49.0 million in 2024, stable from EUR 48.9 million in 2023, mainly caused by gill issues and knock-on effects from lice treatments, in addition to winter sore issues.

Region South

For Region South, 2024 was another strong year with record-high volumes, good improvements in biological KPIs such as mortality and feed conversion ratio, and relatively good cost performance. Operational EBIT amounted to EUR 137.1 million in 2024 compared with EUR 221.2 million in 2023. The decrease was mainly due to lower prices and higher realised cost on the back of previous inflationary pressure, partly offset by dilution effect from higher harvest volume and lower realised feed cost. Operational EBIT per kg harvested was EUR 2.01, i.e. the second highest in our

Norwegian operations in 2024, compared with EUR 3.33 in 2023. The volume harvested was all-time high 68 282 tonnes gutted weight, compared with 66 375 tonnes in 2023. Volumes were positively affected by strong seawater production and improved survival rate.

Region West

Region West had yet another record year in 2024, and was our best performing region in Norway in 2024. Operational EBIT amounted to EUR 202.8 million in 2024 compared with EUR 226.8 million in 2023. The decrease was mainly due to lower achieved prices, partly offset by lower cost and higher harvest volumes. Feed cost were reduced by 4%, while other cost items were relatively stable. Harvest volumes ended at record-high 84 479 tonnes gutted weight compared with 81 937 tonnes in 2023 on overall good biological performance. Operational EBIT per kg harvested was EUR 2.40 vs. EUR 2.77 in 2023.

Region Mid

Operational EBIT amounted to EUR 88.5 million in 2024 compared with EUR 72.2 million in 2023. Over time, performance in Mowi Region Mid has not been satisfactory compared with peers and other regions, and a turnaround process is ongoing. Harvest volume increased from 2023 on good production and reduced mortality in the first half of the year. Average harvest weight and superior share also improved from 2023. Cost improved from a high base in 2023 driven by positive developments in the first half of 2024 and scale effects from higher volumes. In the second half of 2024 the region faced more troublesome biological challenges with string jellyfish and increased lice pressure. Volumes harvested increased to 56 127 tonnes gutted weight from 47 065 tonnes in 2023 as a result of the above-mentioned improved production and biology in the first half of 2024. Operational EBIT per kg harvested was EUR 1.58, compared with EUR 1.53 in 2023.

Region North

Operational EBIT in Region North amounted to EUR 188.0 million in 2024 compared with the record-high EUR 311.3 million in 2023. Harvest volumes were 94 551 tonnes gutted weight, down from 99 124 tonnes in 2023 driven by enforced culling of small PD-positive fish at two sites towards the end of 2023. Region North also had more pressure than usual from environmental conditions in 2024, with winter sores and an unusually cold winter in the first half, exacerbated by string jellyfish, and record-high sea temperatures and high lice pressure in the autumn. Achieved prices were also reduced from 2023. The Operational EBIT margin was reduced to EUR 1.99 from EUR 3.14 in 2023.

1) We measure our harvest volume in terms of tonnes of gutted weight of salmon. Harvest volume of salmon is a key measure of our success and is the volume-related driver of our profit. In the absence of trading, it corresponds to the volume of salmon available for sale.

2) The average price achievement measures the prices that we are able to achieve on our products compared with a salmon price index. Price achievement is measured against NASDAQ for salmon of Norwegian, Scottish and Faroese origin and Urner Barry for salmon of North American and Chilean origin. The market reference prices are spot prices for superior quality salmon, while our achieved price is a blend of spot and contract price for all qualities. Average price achievement measures our ability to sell our products at above market rates and is thus important for understanding our performance. In situations where contract prices deviate from spot prices, or the quality of our sold fish is low, our achieved price will deviate from the reference price. 3) The contract coverage measure represents the percentage of our products that was sold pursuant to contracts. A contract is for this purpose defined as a

commitment to sell our salmon at a fixed price for a period of three months or longer. We have a sales contract policy aimed at limiting our exposure to short and medium-term fluctuations in salmon prices.

4) The superior share of salmon is the percentage graded as being of superior quality, divided by the total volume of harvested salmon. If salmon for some reason, e.g., pale colour or scale loss, cannot be classified as a superior product, it is downgraded and sold as production or ordinary grade product at a lower price.

5) Feed cost per kg harvested is calculated by dividing our total cost of fish feed for harvested fish by tonnes of gutted weight of salmon harvested. 6) Total cost per kg harvested is calculated by dividing our total cost for harvested fish by tonnes of gutted weight of salmon harvested.

Salmon of Scottish origin

Operational EBIT

Operational EBIT for salmon of Scottish origin was EUR 110.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared with EUR 76.5 million in 2023. Biology was improved in 2024 with lower seawater temperatures and less issues with algae and jellyfish compared with 2023. Prices, cost and volumes were improved in 2024.

Operational EBIT per kg was EUR 1.68 in 2024 compared with EUR 1.39 in 2023. Our EBIT for salmon of Scottish origin was EUR 105.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared with EUR 76.0 million in 2023. EBIT per kg was EUR 1.60 in 2024 compared with EUR 1.38 in 2023.

Price and volume developments

Achieved prices improved slightly in 2024. Our price achievement for salmon of Scottish origin for the year ended December 31, 2024 was 25% above the reference price, compared with 15% above in 2023. Contribution from contracts, including contribution from Consumer Products, was positive relative to the reference price in 2024 as they were in 2023. The contract share was 57% in 2024 compared with 56% in 2023. The superior share was 94% in 2024, stable from 94% also in 2023. At 65 977 tonnes gutted weight, harvested volume in the year ended December 31, 2024 increased from 54 950 tonnes in 2023 on the back of increased full-year production and an improved biological situation.

Costs and operations

Full cost per kg for salmon of Scottish origin harvested in 2024 decreased compared with 2023 mainly as a result of decreased mortality cost on the back of improved biology and scale effects from higher harvest volumes, partly offset by general inflationary pressure. EUR 13.7 million was recognised as incident-based mortality in 2024, a significant reduction from EUR 24.4 million in 2023.

The more challenging environmental conditions over the last years have called for more robust salmon and a shorter production cycle in sea in order to, amongst other things, avoid a second summer and autumn in sea. With this in mind, Mowi acquired the Dawnfresh bankruptcy estate's Loch Etive trout sites in 2023. Loch Etive is particularly suitable for postsmolt farming due to its brackish water. This will give us a total annual postsmolt production in Scotland of 7 million smolt, equivalent to a coverage of 30%. Consequently, Mowi Scotland's postsmolt project has several benefits compared with a land-based facility, including lower capital expenditure, shorter realisation time and lower running production cost. In 2024 the first postsmolt produced in Loch Etive was transferred to ordinary sea sites, with harvesting commencing in 2025.

Another important part of Mowi Scotland's biological turnaround plan is to become self-sufficient for eggs. Construction of the new broodstock facility at Ardessie in Northern Scotland is ongoing and is expected to be completed in 2025. When complete, it will provide a secure supply for 100% of Mowi Scotland's egg requirements.

Salmon of Chilean origin

Operational EBIT

Our Operational EBIT for salmon of Chilean origin was EUR 57.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared with EUR 60.5 million in 2023. The overall biological situation as well as the cost level for Mowi Chile was good. Harvest volumes increased to all-time high levels and exceeded 70k tonnes for the first time since 2008. However, market conditions for salmon of Chilean origin were difficult also in 2024 on the back of a more challenging US market. Operational EBIT per kg was EUR 0.79 in 2024 compared with EUR 0.87 in 2023. Our EBIT for salmon of Chilean origin was EUR 35.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2024 compared with EUR 37.1 million in 2023. EBIT per kg was EUR 0.49 in 2024 compared with EUR 0.54 in 2023.

Price and volume developments

Market prices for salmon of Chilean origin increased by 3.4% in 2024 compared with 2023. Although demand was still somewhat lacklustre in 2024, the Chilean market regained some of the gap vs. Europe, with reference to the two-way division of the market since Q2 2023. Price achievement was 6% above the reference price in 2024, compared with 3% above the reference price in 2023. Contracts had a positive effect on price achievement in both 2024 and in 2023. The contract share was 29% in 2024 (30% in 2023).

The superior share for salmon of Chilean origin was 92% in 2024 (91% in 2023), i.e. at the group target of 92%. Harvest volumes of 72 694 tonnes gutted weight in 2024 were all-time high (69 199 tonnes in 2023).

Costs and operations

Overall biology was good in 2024, although with some issues driven by SRS which affected production and survival rates. On a positive note, harvest weights improved from 2023. SRS continues to be a challenge for Chilean salmon farming, and a new vaccine is being tested.

Higher prevalence of lice has been managed by use of freshwater treatments from wellboats, with good results so far.

Cost increased slightly, but limited given the inflationary environment. Incident-based mortality in the amount of EUR 17.1 million was recognised in 2024, which was an increase from EUR 6.5 million in 2023.

Salmon of Canadian origin

Operational EBIT

Operational EBIT per kg was EUR 0.11 in 2024 compared with EUR 0.66 in 2023. Our EBIT for salmon of Canadian origin was EUR -71.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2024 compared with EUR -3.3 million in 2023. EBIT per kg was EUR -2.34 in 2024 compared with EUR -0.11 in 2023.

Price and volume developments

Market prices for salmon of Canadian origin decreased by 5.5% and 6.1% in West and East respectively versus 2023. Our price achievement in 2024 was 2% below the combined reference price, compared with 1% below in 2023. Price achievement was negatively impacted by quality downgrading. There were no contracts for salmon of Canadian origin in 2024, i.e. same as in 2023. The superior share was 91% in 2024, compared with 91% in 2023, slightly below the group target of 92%.

The harvest volume in the year ended December 31, 2024 was 30 426 tonnes gutted weight compared with 28 575 tonnes in 2023.

In Canada East, harvest volume decreased from 9 749 tonnes in 2023 to 8 435 tonnes in 2024. In Canada West, harvest volumes were 21 991 tonnes in 2024 vs. 18 826 tonnes in 2023, positively impacted by uneven site mix.

Our Operational EBIT for salmon of Canadian origin was EUR 3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared with EUR 18.9 million in 2023. Spot prices were reduced on more challenging market conditions, and this was the main driver behind the earnings decrease. Volumes from Canada West increased slightly from a low level in 2023 due to site mix. Volumes in Canada East was slightly down from 2023 on low opening biomass. Combined cost was stable; cost increased in Canada West due to an algae bloom in the summer, while cost decreased in Canada East. Salmon of Irish origin Operational EBIT Our Operational EBIT for salmon of Irish origin was EUR 14.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared with EUR 1.2 million in 2023. Harvest volumes increased from a low level in 2023 due to previous biological issues. Cost was positively affected by increased harvest volumes. Prices were down from

Costs and operations

Full cost per kg for salmon of Canadian origin harvested in the year ended December 31, 2024 was stable compared with 2023 on relatively stable volumes, but despite general inflationary pressure. Incident-based mortality of EUR 11.3 million was recognised in 2024 in our Canadian operations (EUR 10.3 million in 2023) mainly related to algae and low oxygen levels in Canada West.

In Canada East, volumes are expected to gradually increase over the coming years on increased smolt stocking while maintaining control over biology and cost. Following environmental and biological incidents in the aftermath of the acquisition of Canada East in 2018, biological performance in this region has now been good for several years. The cost level has also improved. Mowi has significant unutilised license capacity in this region.

In Canada West, Mowi has a 20k GWT level operation with uncertain future prospects following the authorities' decision in June 2024 to ban traditional marine salmon farming from mid-2029. Mowi has decided to initiate a strategic review of the Canada West business unit and will explore all available options before taking the appropriate action. The governmental decision in Canada West does not affect Canada East and Mowi's strategy for that region.

high level in 2023, but prices for organic salmon were still good also in 2024. Operational EBIT per kg amounted to EUR 1.57 in 2024 compared with EUR 0.27 in 2023. Our EBIT for salmon of Irish origin was EUR 13.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2024 compared with EUR 3.1 million in the same period in 2023. EBIT per kg was EUR 1.48 in 2024 compared with EUR 0.69 in 2023.

Price and volume developments

Mowi Ireland mainly produces organic salmon and there is no reference price available for benchmarking. Compared with 2023, achieved prices were 6% lower for the year ended December 31, 2024. As in previous years, earnings were positively impacted by sale of eggs. Our contract share was 60%, a decrease from 87% in 2023. The superior share of salmon harvested was 92% in 2024 and 87% in 2023. The harvest volume in the year ended December 31, 2024 was 8 887 tonnes gutted weight compared with 4 534 tonnes in 2023.

Costs and operations

Full cost per kg for salmon of Irish origin harvested in the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased compared with 2023 driven by dilution effect from higher harvest volumes, partly offset by higher mortality cost. 2024 smolt have been vaccinated against SRS which is expected to have a positive impact in due course. Biological metrics improved in 2024, including seawater production, survival rate, feed conversion ratio, superior share and average harvest weights.

Salmon of Faroese origin

Operational EBIT

Our Operational EBIT for salmon of Faroese origin was EUR 22.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared with EUR 32.4 million in 2023. Mowi Faroes had another very good year in 2024 with strong biology and stable prices, partly offset by slightly higher cost and lower volumes. Operational EBIT per kg was EUR 2.42 in 2024 compared with EUR 2.94 in 2023. Our EBIT for salmon of Faroese origin was EUR 25.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2024 compared with EUR 33.2 million in 2023. EBIT per kg was EUR 2.69 in 2024 compared with EUR 3.01 in 2023.

Price and volume developments

Achieved prices in 2024 were 9% above the reference price level, compared with 2023 when the achieved prices were 4% above the reference price level. There were no contracts in Mowi Faroes in 2024 or 2023. The harvest volume in the year ended December 31, 2024 was 9 378 tonnes gutted weight compared with 11 027 tonnes in 2023. Harvest volumes fluctuate from year to year in our Faroese operations due to low number of sites. The strong biological performance was underlined by good average harvest weights and improved survival rate in 2024. The latter is at a very impressive level. As the biological situation was good, harvesting was kept low in order towards the end of 2024 to benefit from expected market improvements in 2025.

Costs and operations

In 2024, the cost level for salmon of Faroese origin was slightly increased compared with 2023 on inflationary pressure, but on a positive side realised feed cost was reduced compared to 2023. EUR 0.5 million was recognised as incident-based mortality in 2024, compared with none in 2023.

Liquidity, Cash Flow and Borrowings

Liquidity and capital resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand, revenues generated from our operations, loans and other financings. Our principal needs for liquidity have been, and will likely continue to be, costs of raw materials, including fish feed, other working capital items and capital expenditures, to service our debt and to fund M&A activity and dividend payments. We believe that our liquidity is sufficient to cover our working capital needs in the ordinary course of business.

Our cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2024 was EUR 290.2 million compared with EUR 302.8 million as of December 31,

Salmon of Icelandic origin

Operational EBIT

Operational EBIT for salmon of Icelandic origin was EUR 14.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared with EUR 13.5 million in 2023. Operational EBIT per kg was EUR 1.38 in 2024 (EUR 1.14 in 2023). Our EBIT for salmon of Icelandic origin was EUR 13.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2024, up from EUR -5.6 million in 2023. EBIT per kg was EUR 1.29 in 2024 compared to EUR -0.47 per kg. in 2023.

Price and volume developments

Prices for salmon of Icelandic origin had a positive development in 2024 compared with 2023. A new sales agreement with Mowi Sales & Marketing has been entered into, replacing Arctic Fish' old external agreement. The aim of the new agreement is to improve value realisation and market access. Price achievement in 2023 was negatively impacted by temporary logistics issues. There were no contracts on salmon of Icelandic origin in 2024. The harvest volume in the year ended December 31, 2024 was 10 667 tonnes gutted weight, a slight decrease from 11 878 tonnes in 2023.

Costs and operations

Full operational cost increased in 2024 from 2023 on slightly lower harvest volume. The cost level in Iceland is still too high for Mowi and the rest of the industry, and streamlining of operations and cost reductions continue to be high priorities going forward. Biology improved from 2023 which had a positive effect on biological KPIs such as survival rate, feed conversion ratio, production and average harvest weight.

Several measures have been taken the last years to improve operational and financial performance. Arctic Fish entered into a new feed contract with Mowi Feed from July 2023, and in the same month the new processing facility in Bolungarvík commenced operations. Consequently, Arctic Fish is no longer dependent on external harvesting capacity. This is expected to improve operational efficiency and the cost level going forward.

Our clear goal is to develop Arctic Fish into a streamlined and cost-effective operation. This includes improved lice strategy and treatment capacity which is a priority for the company, in addition to streamlining of the bureaucracy related to the Icelandic salmon industry.

  1. Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash and bank deposits, including restricted funds. Restricted funds are mainly related to employees' income tax withholdings.

Our NIBD (excluding effects of IFRS 16) was EUR 1 867.1 million as of December 31, 2024, up from EUR 1 790.3 million as of December 31, 2023, of which EUR 132.7 million in Arctic Fish. Per year-end, NIBD exceeded the long-term target of EUR 1 700 million, but Mowi will revert to a revised NIBD target following completion of the Nova Sea acquisition.

Capital expenditures

Our capital expenditures primarily relate to investments in our operating facilities and equipment used in our operations. Net capital expenditures were approximately EUR 354.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, or EUR 290 million adjusted for acquisition of licenses in Norway. This was a decrease from EUR 388.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. For 2024 and 2023 respectively, EUR 203.6 million and EUR 221.8 million of the total net capital expenditure was attributable to our farming operations in Norway. The bulk of the capital expenditure in Norway was related to postsmolt projects and purchase of license capacity.

Cash flows

Cash flow from operations

Cash flow from operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 came to EUR 916.6 million, compared with EUR 992.2 million for 2023. Adjusted for IFRS 16 effects, cash flow from operations was EUR 669.9 million in 2024 vs. EUR 782.1 million in 2023. The decrease was mainly related to lower operational earnings driven by lower prices. Working capital tie-up was lower in 2024 than in 2023 due to lower feed prices and less inflationary pressure. Tax payments increased due to prepayments in Norway of EUR 81 million which will reduce tax payments in 2025 accordingly.

Cash flow from investments

Cash flow from investments for the year ended December 31, 2024 came to EUR -332.1 million, compared with cash flow from investments of EUR -413.6 million in 2023. In both years, net capex was the main contributor, with EUR 290.0 million in 2024 vs. EUR 362.2 million in 2023. The reduction was due to several large projects being completed, including postsmolt facilities in Norway and the new processing facility in Region Mid. Norway.

In addition, acquisition of license capacity in Norway amounted to EUR 64.0 million in 2024 vs. EUR 26.3 million in the residual auction in 2023.

Furthermore, other investments include a net cash inflow of EUR 21.9 million in 2024 related to dividends from associates vs. a net cash outflow of EUR 25.3 million in 2023. The 2023 figure includes the acquisition of assets from the Dawnfresh bankruptcy estate in Scotland related to the postsmolt programme for Mowi Scotland.

Cash flow from financing

Cash flow from financing for the year ended December 31, 2024 came to EUR -598.3 million, compared with EUR -458.2 million for 2023. This includes effects of proceeds from interest-bearing debt and down payments of leasing debt. Cash flow outflows related to dividends decreased from EUR 326.1 million in 2023 to 292.2 million in 2024 on lower earnings, while interest expenses increased from 2023 to 2024.

Borrowings

As of December 31, 2024 our main outstanding borrowings consisted of the EUR 2 000 million secured sustainability-linked facility maturing in 2026, a green unsecured bond of EUR 213 million maturing in 2029, a green unsecured bond of EUR 85 million maturing in 2032, a green unsecured bond of EUR 200 million which matured in January 2025 and was repaid, as well as an unsecured Schuldschein loan of EUR 150 million maturing in 2026. Arctic Fish has a separate financing.

Production of food from the ocean makes sense

From the United Nations (FAO, UN Global Compact) to world-leading scientists there is an overall agreement that food from the ocean is a triple win: for people because it is healthy, for the planet because it is climate-friendly, and for the economy because it sustains local and global economies.

Aquaculture has already surpassed capture fisheries in aquatic animal production and the latest FAO report on the State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture (SOFIA, 2024) clearly recognises the role of aquatic animal foods, including salmon, to reduce food and nutrition insecurity and tackle many forms of malnutrition, providing high-quality nutrients with a moderate energy contribution.

The Blue Food Assessment, the High Level Panel for a Sustainable Ocean Economy and FAO's Blue Transformation roadmap, continue to provide a credible and transparent assessment of the potential for aquaculture as a sustainable ocean economy. Blue foods have lower environmental footprints than land-based foods. Farmed salmon, in particular, has lower GHG emissions , water use and land use per kg of edible weight when compared with chicken. Taking an industry average, farm-raised Norwegian salmon has an emissions intensity that is 20% that of beef (SINTEF, 2020). The carbon footprint of farm-raised salmon is 6.4 kg of carbon equivalent per kg of edible product, compared with 12.2 kg of carbon equivalent per edible kg of pork and 39.0 kg per edible kg of beef (SINTEF, 2020, 2022).

For the consumer, replacing pork and beef with fish would significantly reduce their personal carbon footprint. Not only is the carbon footprint of farm-raised salmon lower but its edible yield is higher (68%) as compared with chicken (46%), pork (52%) or lamb (38%). For Mowi, high edible yields combined with 100% re-use of by-products (i.e.offcuts and trimmings) means that nearly every single gram of salmon is used, thereby avoiding food waste.

Mowi's vision of Leading the Blue Revolution and our sustainability strategy are aimed at realising the potential of blue foods, ie making more healthy and sustainable food from the ocean available to an increasing world population. In 2024, we further implemented our sustainability strategy with the achievement of key milestones such as:

  • update of our climate targets aligned with 1.5˚C
  • development of our CSRD aligned climate transition plan
  • update of our CDP Climate and Water report and our biodiversity framework (Farming in Harmony with Nature)
  • inclusion of the aquaculture sector guidance in our TNFD report, and
  • significant progress towards reduction of our scope 1 and 2 emissions as well our scope 3 (FLAG) emissions.

Scope emissions and renewable electricity

Avoided GHG Emissions

1.9 million tonnes CO² e emissions are avoided annually by replacing the corresponding amount of land animal protein production.

Climate Change

Mowi is commitment to the Paris Agreement, to limit the increase in global average temperature to below 1.5˚C, and has approved Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi). Climate change entails both impacts and risks such as increased seawater temperatures and extreme weather events but also opportunities linked with an increasing recognition that seafood is a climate friendly alternative to land animal protein. Mowi reports on climate change aligned with regulatory and global frameworks such as the CSRD (ESRS E1), GHG Protocol,TCFD aligned with IFRS S2 and CDP Climate.

In 2024, Mowi's Science Based Targets have been updated to be aligned with 1.5˚C, reflecting more ambitious targets to reduce scope 1, 2 and 3 (including FLAG) targets. Our new targets are:

  • Reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 50.6% by 2030, from a 2019 base year
  • Reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions 27.5% by 2030, from a 2019 base year
  • Reduce absolute Scope 3 FLAG (Forest, Land & Agriculture) GHG emissions 33.3% by 2030, from a 2019 base year

We have developed a climate transition plan aligned with the CSRD requirements (see ESRS E1), which include the identification of the most important actions (decarbonisation levers), estimated reduction of GHG emissions of each decarbonisation lever and estimated Opex and Capex needed to execute such plan.

Data on energy consumption, renewable electricity, GHG emissions and actions plans are disclosed under E1.

In summary, in 2024, Mowi reduced its scope 1 and 2 emissions despite the increase in production volumes.

We continue to reduce our dependency on fossil fuels at our seawater operations by connecting sites to land power and introducing more hybrid management systems. Our on-site generation of renewable electricity has kicked-off in 2024, at our processing operations in Poland and feed plant in Scotland. In addition, we continue to increase the purchase of renewable electricity. The main contributor to our scope 3 emissions, sourcing of feed raw materials, has shown significant progress with both Mowi Feed and our external feed suppliers reducing GHG FLAG-emissions per tonne of feed produced.

By increasing our production volumes of climate friendly protein to 501 530 GWT in 2024, we avoided GHG emissions* of approximately 1.9 million tonnes of CO2e, equivalent to removing 397 000 gasoline-powered passenger vehicles driven for one year.

*Avoided emissions were calculated by starting to convert the production volumes of Mowi salmon in 2024 to edible yield (using a 55% conversion), then calculating the carbon footprint of that volume originating from animal protein mix. This was done by using a mix of consumption (OECD) of 40% chicken, 38% pork and 22% beef and the reported GHG emissions from SINTEF 2020.

Brattholmen, Mowi Norway North

www.epa.gov/energy/greenhouse-gas-equivalencies-calculator was used to convert the net avoided CO2e emissions resulting from replacing land animal protein by Mowi salmon, to number of cars that can be removed from the road every year.

Mowi's climate roadmap identifies our strategic actions towards achieving our Science Based Targets aligned with 1.5°C.

By establishing our climate roadmap, we aim for transparency in addressing our climate impact across operations and the supply chain. We believe we can drive dietary shifts towards seafood, a climate-friendly alternative to land-based animal protein.

Freshwater and Marine Resources

Freshwater is important for Mowi and is used both directly and indirectly in our operations, in the initial stages of farming to produce smolts prior to sea transfer as well as at our processing plants to keep high hygienic standards, and from the use of agricultural feed raw materials. Mowi is committed to using freshwater in a responsible way and has set targets to address water withdrawal in areas where water scarcity is a potential issue. Limited freshwater availability creates both impacts and risks from an operational point of view, but also opportunities linked with an increasing recognition that farmed salmon has lower freshwater use compared to alternative land animal proteins.

Our freshwater use policy guides our business units, including Mowi's feed supply chain, to key actions on freshwater use stewardship. In addition, we continuously invest in technological developments in order to comply with local regulations and, where possible, improve water-use efficiency.

Our sustainable feed sourcing policy includes elements of good agricultural practices, which also addresses water use. Marine resources are linked with the sustainable use of marine feed raw materials and are addressed under ESRS E3, where we have also aligned our freshwater-related disclosures. This information is complemented by our CDP water report. Our risk profile within Mowi's own operations and our supply chain remained similar to previous years with only a limited number of assets and suppliers being located in areas of high water scarcity.

The updated Aqueduct water risk framework was used in our 2024 assessment and results are presented under ESRS E3. The freshwater withdrawal in 2024 increased compared to 2023, following the increased production of smolts and postsmolt while water consumption decreased in 2024. We continue to implement water-saving initiatives across our business units.

Our exposure to high water scarcity is very limited with only 0.08% of our water withdrawal originating from areas with high water scarcity. Additional to Mowi's certification schemes that ensure agricultural raw materials are sourced from areas where water management is

considered, we performed a water risk assessment using Mowi's global due diligence process for suppliers. For those suppliers rated as high-risk in our water index (consisting of a wastewater discharge treatment index and a baseline water stress index) we have developed a Mowi Environmental survey including a water risk assessment to further understanding the risk profile and the actions being taken by our suppliers on aspects related to water scarce areas, monitoring of water withdrawal, consumption and discharge as well as water risk policies, water infrastructure, sustainable water supply, the protection of water bodies from pollution by agriculture activity, and water related targets. This assessment ensures that our suppliers meet water-related requirements as part of our sustainable purchasing process.

focus on implementation of good practices for water management and irrigation, maintaining the quality and quantity of natural water resources, minimising the use of energy, giving preference to renewable sources, and adopting good practices on nutrient use. In 2024, we provided direct support and guidance to suppliers on water stewardship which included several training sessions.

Our sustainable sourcing policy, which governs our procurement procedure for feed raw materials, includes requirements for Good Agricultural Practices (GAP), which outlines the need to have nutrient management plans in place. Several of our vegetable feed raw material suppliers are engaged in projects to promote good agricultural practices and are exposed to training provided by Mowi. Our training events include examples of good agricultural practices such as compensatory measures to recover areas of native vegetation and restoration or maintenance of native vegetation of riparian forests, steep slopes and hilltops as well as defining and promoting regenerative agriculture. In addition, our suppliers Biodiversity and Ecosystems Mowi depends on well-functioning and stable ecosystems to produce our salmon under optimal conditions for them to thrive and be healthy. Several key steps in our value chain are directly dependent on specific nature services needed for production. This ranges from the sourcing of marine and vegetable feed ingredients to the freshwater for rearing smolts, and the coastal marine waters where we farm our salmon until harvest. It is important to recognise the potential impact our operations can have on the very same natural resources upon

We also introduced GAP as part of Mowi's environmental due diligence. These include questions related with water stewardship, wastewater management, pollution, biodiversity, GHG and other emissions and identification of specific GAP projects such as crop rotation, use of cover crops, agroforestry, soil health management, plant nutrient management, training of farmers etc. Physical climate risks such as severe drought and flooding can have an impact on the availability and price of agricultural commodities. Implementation of regenerative agriculture can help in mitigating such risks, reducing exposure to price volatility. Good agricultural practices are already implemented within our vegetable feed raw materials, and includes responsible use of pesticides.

Sea site, Mowi Chile

which we and others rely. For these reasons it is critical that we raise awareness of the nature-linked impacts and dependencies in our own operations and in our supply chain.

Mowi has developed a Biodiversity Framework and a Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) report, both available on our website. Mowi's farming activities adhere to voluntary certifications which address biodiversity and nature protection. In addition, Mowi is reporting according to ESRS E4, on biodiversity and ecosystems, reflecting the materiality of biodiversity to our own operations and the supply chain

In 2024, we had a total of 30 projects aimed at understanding and minimising our potential impact on biodiversity. Chile developed a biodiversity training project to raise awareness of the importance of biodiversity conservation, which will be implemented in 2025. We have also run two plankton monitoring projects, where AI and satellite imagery are used to improve data to predict harmful algae blooms. In Norway, we have run several monitoring projects focusing on topics such as migration of salmon from rivers and the impact of operations on nearby rivers, the impacts of sea lice pressure on sea trout migration patterns, and ecological and chemical conditions in costal areas. Support was also given to local river keepers to manage their rivers and lakes in a sustainable way, both financially and socially. In addition, we have conducted research projects on vulnerable habitats and species whose results directly affect applications for site expansions, as well as current operations at our sites.

In Scotland, we have 2 projects to restore native salmon populations in Loch Arkaig and the River Garry. Further, a three-year post closure monitoring project in Loch Ewe was also conducted to assess and track the rate of benthic recovery using traditional assessment metrics (macrobenthic data) but also new monitoring innovation through the use of eDNA metabarcoding. The project was closed in 2024, and data collected across the study has conclusively shown that the limited effects of fish farming on the seabed (that are managed and controlled by regulatory frameworks) are fully recoverable, with a rapid trajectory of benthic recovery once farming In addition to monitoring possibly affected rivers and recapturing any escaped fish, Mowi has launched a project to investigate whether this escape incident will contribute to genetic introgression in local rivers. The remaining escape incidents in Norway related to equipment failure at exposed sites, or sites with high water currents. Mitigation actions have been implemented, including improved training and onboarding of employees, improved standard operational procedures and risk-assessment of equipment in exposed sites.

We will continue our efforts to reduce the number of escape incidents by strengthening our collaboration and training with equipment and service suppliers, improving our training programmes to minimise human error, ensuring that best practices for delousing operations are followed, and implementing anti-fouling strategies that reduce the need for net cleaning. In addition, a positive progress towards zero-escapes has been linked to bonus remuneration in the senior management team.

Detailed disclosure on the number of escape incidents, escaped fish, reasons for the incident and mitigation actions are shows under ESRS E4.

Seabed

Certifications

Mowi's target is that 100% of our yearly harvest volume is certified with a Global Sustainable Seafood Initiative (GSSI) recognized standard, such as the Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC), Best Aquaculture Practices (BAP) or Global GAP standards. This target has been achieved in 2024. To become GSSI recognized, the certification standards are required to include assessments and documentation of nature-related risks connected to key biodiversity topics, including seabed impact, interaction with wildlife and responsible use of medicines.

Producing salmon in pens means that organic substances from fish faeces and excess feed can be released to surrounding waters and potentially accumulate on the seabed. Benthic impact is of critical importance to Mowi, to ensure we coexist with the surrounding natural environment in a sustainable way. Benthic impact in all countries where we farm is covered by regulatory requirements, our global biodiversity policy and voluntary certifications. Regular benthic surveys allow us to apply adaptive management of our farming practices to ensure they have minimum impacts on the seabed and surrounding areas. All farming operations are certified according to standards that account for biodiversity (i.e. Global GAP, BAP and ASC). every year, including 2024 and 2025. Our focus on preventing escape incidents includes a wide variety of actions focusing on working with suppliers to make our equipment more resilient and on preventing human errors. In 2024, the number of escape incidents and escaped fish in Norway increased, primarily due to an incident at a freshwater location. Smolt (approximately 120 g) escaped into the sea during delivery to a wellboat because of primary and secondary barrier failures. Factors, such as the size of the fish and the time of year for the incident (December), make it unlikely that escapees will survive or migrate to rivers, and therefore makes the likelihood of negative environmental impact in rivers low.

Global GAP, ASC and BAP have been recognized by GSSI as certification schemes that successfully completed a rigorous and transparent benchmark process. This process is based on FAO guidelines and standards assessing overall environmental impact of how seafood is produced. GSSI is one of the largest pre-competitive collaborations in the world aligning business, NGOs, governments, and international organizations representing the full seafood value chain.

Escapes

Escaped farm-raised salmon may have a negative impact on the environment, due to ecological interactions and interbreeding with wild populations, and therefore we have a zero-fish escape target,

operations cease. Mowi Scotland is also an active member of the BactMetBar project, a partnership of academic institutions, fish farming companies and regulators. This project and its outputs have the potential to create a shift change in how the Scottish salmon farmers assess the impacts of their farms using eDNA. The benefits stretch beyond regulatory compliance assessment, supporting improved production efficiencies and the development of new farms through improved modelling. We have further developed a georeferenced 3D photogrammetry, a tool for monitoring finfish aquaculture impacts on hard seabeds. An additional project will provide industry, regulators and certifiers with a knowledge base, monitoring approaches and modelling tools needed to improve freshwater salmonid production.

In Canada, we have two monitoring and modelling projects to gain better insights into the interactions between salmon farming and climate change. The environmental genomics-based monitoring programme will help us to understand how environmental profiles and functional group characterisations (biodiversity) of water and seabed correlate with fish health and production regulatory outcomes in British Columbia. The oceanography will help us assess climate change impacts on an offshore-influenced coastal fish farming region on the Northwest coast of Vancouver Island, BC using weather, ocean and freshwater input data. We have also run a project on migration of juvenile salmon and their interactions with aquaculture.

Our efforts in Ireland were aimed at expanding knowledge on forecasting harmful jellyfish blooms and fouling for the salmon aquaculture industry through our Jelly4Cast project as well as genetic and population ecology of wrasse in Irish embayments.

Our European processing plants are running local biodiversity projects, such as establishing beehives on site to support pollination and promote local biodiversity. One example is the establishment of four beehives on the grounds of our plants in Bruges and Ostend (Belgium), where the honey produced is sold to raise financial support for a local charity.

used in these activities. This includes everything from the main structural components at our farms to smaller materials and equipment like ropes, metals, packaging and other typical household waste resulting from day-to-day operations. We have a strong focus on responsible sorting, storage and safe removal of waste to avoid its release to the natural environment where it could cause direct negative impact on nature and wildlife. Another waste-related impact is GHG emissions from waste disposal, where more sustainable pathways like reuse and material recycling have lower GHG emissions than disposal methods like incineration and landfill. We work closely with our local waste handlers to ensure we recapture as much as possible of the value of our waste through reuse and material recycling, also avoiding unnecessary GHG emissions.

Waste-related data is incorporated in Mowi's corporate sustainability reporting, where progress and trends are monitored for the Group. Non-solid waste such as sludge and ensilage are not included in the total solid waste. Optimal solutions for avoiding waste to disposal are unfortunately not yet available in all countries and locations where we operate. Where this is the case we continue to invest in on-site equipment and solutions to avoid and reduce waste generation, and support local initiatives and new alternatives for improved waste management.

To address waste management in Mowi's supply chain, we have implemented an environmental due diligence process for our suppliers. This process consists of applying global indices which assess environmental risk and a Mowi questionnaire, assessing supplier waste management practices.

In 2024, we continued our work towards the target of zero non-

In our farming operations, we use dispersion modelling to predict benthic impact, determine optimal site locations and fallowing, where necessary, between production cycles to facilitate seabed recovery. Inorganic loading and the risk of eutrophication is assessed by either water quality measurements as requested by certification schemes like ASC (nitrogen and phosphorus), existing classification of water quality as defined by the EU Water Framework Directive or chlorophyll trends, used as a proxy of eutrophication. In addition, through Smart Farming Technology, autonomous feeding, and best practices, we ensure efficient feeding and minimise pellet loss. We also keep stocking densities at sea well below 25 kg/m3 to ensure we stay within the carrying capacities of the environment.

In 2024, results show that, on average, 89% (94%) of our sea sites surveyed have a minimal impact on faunal communities and/or sediment chemistry near to the fish pens. Detailed disclosure of benthic impact per farming country can be found in ESRS E4.

Waste

We recognise that to protect our natural capital, we need to adopt a circular economy perspective and derive the most value from natural resources during their lifetime. Moving from a finite and linear model to a circular approach is making our business more resilient and resource efficient, benefiting the environment and avoiding unnecessary costs.

We are committed to responsible waste management, by avoiding or reducing waste generation, optimising waste streams to improve reuse and material recycling and ensuring responsible disposal methods where waste to disposal cannot be avoided. Mowi generates solid waste as a result of our feed, farming and processing operations and the input of materials and equipment

hazardous waste to landfill from our processing plants and we are getting closer to having 100% of our processing plants with waste handling alternatives to incineration. Data on waste is presented in our Biodiversity Framework.

Wildlife interactions

There is a rich diversity of wildlife around our farms, including marine mammals and birds. It is a priority for Mowi to take preventative action and implement measures to avoid negative impacts, such as wildlife mortalities. Our policy on human-wildlife interactions is included in our Group policies, and is listed as one of the priority risks in our Biodiversity Framework.

Our strategy includes the use of preventative and passive control measures such as bird nets of appropriate mesh size. Such equipment is to be maintained and installed for optimal use at the farm. Bird and mammal mortalities are registered and assessed locally, ensuring that mitigation measures and strategies are adapted to prevent mortality incidents from reoccurring.

In 2024, we experienced only accidental mortalities, with the numbers remaining very low across the group. Disclosures on bird and mammal mortalities are part of our biodiversity and ecosystems chapter under ESRS E4. Complementary disclosures are part of our Biodiversity Framework and TNFD report, available on our website.

Sustainable feed

Feed is a key component in ensuring the best possible fish health and performance. In any life cycle assessment (LCA) of salmon farming, feed makes the largest contribution to its environmental footprint. To remain at the forefront of environmental responsibility,

we prioritise the sourcing of sustainable feed ingredients, and strive to utilise feed as efficiently as possible at our fish farms. Sourcing sustainable feed ingredients is crucial if we are to remain a front-runner with regard to environmental responsibility. Our policy for sustainable feed ingredients applies to all feed purchased externally, as well as the feed we produce ourselves. Mowi is selfsufficient with regards to feed in Europe. Both of our feed plants are Global GAP and, from 2024, also ASC certified*.

In 2024, we maintained our 100% compliance with our sustainable sourcing policy, meaning all soy protein concentrate sourced continues to be deforestation-free, our marine feed raw materials are sustainably certified or part of Fisheries Improvement Projects, and we continue to increase the inclusion of emerging feed raw materials and reduce the GHG emissions intensity of the feed we produce. Detailed disclosures on marine raw materials are under ESRS E3, while disclosures related with sustainable vegetable feed raw materials in under ESRS E4.

We continue to focus on feed innovation to reduce our scope 3 GHG emissions. In 2024, we continued our collaboration with research institutions, other industry players and novel feed raw materials suppliers in the Millennial Salmon project. One of the key aims of this project is to run a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to provide a comprehensive figure on climate impact of sustainable feeds.

Animal welfare

Protecting the health and welfare of our fish is paramount for their well-being, achieving optimal performance, and is both financially rewarding and positive for the environment. Mowi's disclosures on Animal Welfare are included under CSRD G1 (Business conduct) and include entity-specific metrics on fish survival, medicine use and sea lice management.

Across all our farming operations, animal welfare is recognised as a strategic objective and our primary goals are to rear healthy fish and protect their well-being. Ocean farming allows us to rear salmon under conditions that allow them to thrive, with clean water, space and food, and ensuring they obtain the necessary nutrients for good health and performance throughout their lives. Our fish are stocked at densities that safeguard their welfare, ensuring they have ample space to swim and express innate behaviour. Biosecurity, health management plans, coordinated fallowing and synchronised production are integral components of our farming practices, which reduce biological risk.

The application of good husbandry and management practices, biosecurity standards and veterinary health plans, all under the supervision of our dedicated fish health professionals, contribute to the optimisation of fish welfare, their well-being and propensity to thrive. Our farms are certified to the highest possible standards (namely Global GAP, ASC and BAP) which address fish welfare aspects related to feed, water quality, health management, transport, harvesting and slaughter. Our Irish operations are 100% organic certified, as is a proportion of our Scottish operations. In addition, our Scottish operations are 100% certified against the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) standard, as are our freshwater sites in Ireland. Smolt quality and effective vaccines are the cornerstones of fish health. We vaccinate 100% of our fish to reduce the risk of disease and compromised welfare, and we apply the utmost care to ensure the highest quality and robustness of our smolts, to reduce health risks.

In 2024, the Group monthly survival rate measured on fish numbers and based on GSI definition*) increased in seawater (99.3%) and was kept stable at the same levels for freshwater (99.2%). This survival rate measured in accordance with GSI methodology is suitable for comparisons across companies applying the same methodology.

* reported in accordance with the Global Salmon Initiative (GSI) methodology: (total # mortality in sea last 12 months / (closing # in sea last month + total # mortality # in sea last 12 months + total # harvested last 12 months + total # culled fish in sea) X 100)

The survival rate is the complement of the mortality rate.

An alternative calculation of monthly mortality rate, which is simpler and better reflects how the companies themselves and various governmental bodies monitor mortality, is to measure the number of mortalities relative to the opening biomass number. The monthly numbers may be aggregated either per year (annual mortality) or per generation. We refer to this as the industry definition of mortality, as opposed to the GSI definition described above. Measured in accordance with the industry definition, annual mortality in seawater for Mowi Farming, i.e. across all seven farming countries, was 16.2% in 2024 (17.4% in 2023).

Mortality rates vary from country to country and from region to region depending on e.g. environmental conditions such as temperatures, weather conditions, oxygen levels, prevalence of algae and plankton etc. Mowi's best-performing region with regards to mortality is the Faroes with 6.8% annual mortality in 2024. In the largest Farming entity, Mowi Norway, annual mortality was 14.7% in 2024, i.e. better than the overall group figure.

Measured for the complete production cycle (freshwater and seawater), the monthly average mortality rate for Mowi Norway is 0.7%, i.e. lower than for pig (2.9%), chicken (2.2%) and lamb (1.5%). However, because of the salmon's long production cycle of up to three years in total, the nominal cycle mortality rate for salmon is higher than for all of these animals. Also note that in the wild, mortality rates for salmon range from 65% to 95%, i.e. significantly higher than for farmed salmon. The salmon is a so-called R-strategist producing a high number of reproductive cells, aiming for at least a few offspring to survive. This as opposed to so-called K-strategists producing a low number of reproductive cells. This means that from nature's side, reproductive biology and mortality rates are very different for salmon than for most land farmed animals. This, combined with the significantly longer production time, represents a challenge when comparing mortality rates with other farmed animals. That being said, Mowi puts great emphasis on reducing mortality as much as possible. This is important for many reasons, including fish welfare. Also, from a financial point of view, mortality represents a pure loss.

Industry mortality rates have been relatively stable for the last thirty years, although Mowi saw an improvement in 2024 vs. 2023. However, we expect that our ongoing implementations of postsmolt, as well as shielding technologies (such as submerged pens and closed-containment systems), lasers and other Mowi 4.0 technologies, will further improve mortality rates. With regards to postsmolt, larger smolt is more robust, and the seawater phase can be reduced to one year given a smolt size of approx. 700 grams. This has the potential to significantly reduce mortality, as mortality mainly occurs in the seawater phase.

One key trend we have observed is the increasing preference for convenient meal solutions that do not compromise on taste or quality. Furthermore, at-home dining has been on the rise due to a combination of economic and lifestyle factors. Finally, sustainability and health aspects of food are at the top of consumers' priorities. In response to these trends, last year we launched MOWI Burgers in Germany, offering a quick and delicious meal option that is offered through both retail and foodservice channels. The MOWI Burgers come in two versions: the MOWI FJORD BURGER, a classic salmon burger that highlights the natural flavor of our premium salmon, and the MOWI VIKING BURGER, which adds a deliciously crispy twist to the traditional burger experience.

We further strengthened our product portfolio with the expansion of the MOWI Bistro range in the UK. The Bistro range offers a premium dining experience at home, making high quality meals more accessible to a broader audience, including those with limited cooking skills or those seeking a convenient yet special meal solution. The latest addition, the MOWI Bistro Scottish Salmon Fillets with a Lemon & Herb Butter, was created by our chef. Each fillet is carefully infused with lemon oil and seasoning, complemented by a flavorful herb butter and a bay leaf garnish to create a great aroma from your oven. In addition to the Bistro range, we also introduced the seasonal BBQ Slow Roasted Scottish Salmon Fillets followed by the succulent Honey and Citrus flavour Slow Roasted fillets. These products meet the demand for quick, delicious midweek meals or lunches, and provide consumers with versatile ready-to-eat options that can be enjoyed either hot or cold. By offering a variety of products, we cater to both traditional palates and adventurous consumers seeking bold culinary experiences, regardless of their culinary skills.

Our approach

At Mowi, we are committed to bringing excellence to the seafood industry, driven by our passion for delivering high quality products.

Every year we develop hundreds of new products globally, which serves as a testament to our commitment to value adding innovation.

Health benefits of salmon

Our salmon offers an exceptional taste and health profile that stands out from other options. It is rich in essential Omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), essential vitamins (B12, E, and D), and key minerals like selenium and iodine. The nutrients in salmon support optimal health and help to reduce the risk of a range of diseases and disorders.

Consumption of essential Omega-3 acids supports heart health by lowering blood pressure and triglycerides, reduces the risk of coronary heart disease, supports brain function, and may help prevent cognitive decline in the elderly, in addition to lowering the risk of arthritis. Furthermore, the protein and amino acid content in salmon provides a range of additional health benefits. Protein plays a key role in maintaining the structure, function, and regulation of human tissues and organs. Salmon is considered a "complete protein" because it contains all nine essential amino acids the body needs from dietary sources, as these cannot be synthesized internally.

Engagement with our stakeholders such as regulators, scientists, certification bodies, and retailers helps us understand expectations and trends in healthy foods.

Innovation as a cornerstone of product development

Innovation is at the heart of Mowi's product development strategy. We continuously strive to deliver products that enhance consumer taste experiences, deliver superior nutritional value, and cater to a diverse range of lifestyles and demographic groups.

Healthy seafood

Nutrient-dense foods such as salmon play an important role in meeting our individual dietary requirements without excess energy intake. The nutrients in salmon support optimal health and help to reduce the risk of a range of diseases and disorders. Our salmon is an excellent source of high-quality protein, vitamins, minerals and Omega-3 fatty acids.

The Blue Food Assessment states that blue foods from the ocean, such as salmon, on average have much greater nutritional benefits than terrestrial animal foods, and many also have a smaller environmental footprint.

For details on all the health benefit's and our actions and targets in regard to further develop healthy and safe seafood see mowi.com/ products.

Safe, high quality seafood

Consuming Mowi salmon is both safe and healthy. Every day, we produce high-quality farm-raised salmon and value-added products. High quality is ensured through procedures, training, and the sharing of best practices across the Group. In addition, we are constantly improving our monitoring programmes and quality assurance systems, and implementing technology that helps us deliver high-quality products across the world.

Our approach at Mowi is to be transparent and share information which demonstrates to our customers and consumers that our products are safe and healthy. Mowi has a strong food safety culture in-house and share best practice between different factories and segments.

Mowi as a producer of aquatic food has a role to play in food security. At local, regional, national and global levels Mowi takes action through partnerships to further develop sustainable aquaculture.

Our global Operational Excellence Programme, ONE Mowi, helps us to operate in a consistent way throughout the Group. All our operations must comply with a minimum set of third-party verified certification schemes addressing food safety, environmental responsibility, social responsibility and fish welfare. Chain of Custody certifications must be achieved, as required by Global G.A.P., GAA/ BAP, ASC and MSC.

All our farming operations is to be certified with a Global Sustainable Seafood Initiative (GSSI) recognised standard, and that means either GAA BAP, ASC or Global G.A.P. All Mowi processing plants have a Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) recognised standard.

In 2024, Mowi had 3 (5) food safety incidents with all resulting in recall, with a total volume of 2.4 tonnes. No market bans did occur and we have not identified any non-compliance with food safety regulations. Cost related to food safety incidents in 2024 was EUR 0.1 million. Mowi has a global traceability system through the whole value chain, which makes Mowi more robust when food safety incidents occur. In these cases the ability to communicate promptly and with reliable data is crucial.

More information related with food safety and quality can be found in Mowi's Food Safety Policy (Policies - Mowi Company Website), Mowi's certification table (Our certifications - Mowi Company Website) and Mowi's Nutritional Product Profile, Taste & Health -

Looking ahead, we are committed to expanding access to healthy, sustainable, and delicious food options across all channels. Our strategy is focused on growth in foodservice, retail, and e-commerce, in addition to raising awareness of the salmon category and educating consumers about our products' health and sustainability benefits.

We continue to prioritise fair and transparent compensation. Our aim is to offer competitive compensation yet aligned with the local market and industry. No employee is paid less than the official national living wage indicated for the relevant location. We employ a global job architecture system to ensure transparent processes with objective criteria for job grading, as well as the determination of compensation and benefits. Regular assessments of gender pay are conducted, and our analysis consistently shows no significant gender pay disparities across functions or within relevant locations.

Freedom of association

Mowi respects, recognises, and support our employees' freedom of association and the right to engage in collective bargaining. Employees are free from reprisals due to union membership or engagement. Mowi is committed to the constructive dialogue and cooperation with labour unions and employee representatives and strongly consider these partnerships to be of vital importance to lead and find common solutions for our employees.

Diversity and equality

Mowi values the diversity of our workforce and the valuable contribution it makes. We believe that a diverse work force gives us a competitive advantage in our business operation, our access to future talent, and maintaining our attractiveness as an employer. Mowi have a long-standing commitment to equal opportunity. We continuously work to create a workplace that is free from discrimination or harassment based on race, sex, colour, national or social origin, religion, age, disability, sexual orientation, political opinion, or any other status protected by law and international human rights. Any recruitment, hiring, promotion, training, reward, and other advancement at the company is based on qualifications, skills, experience, and performance.

At Mowi, the principles of equality, diversity and inclusion are built into our Code of Conduct where fair, respectful and ethical treatment of others is core to who we are and our company culture.

Leading a revolution

Leading a revolution requires engaged and passionate people, who share our common vision and values. Our shared company culture unites our diverse organisation and inspire us to reach our common goals. Our vision, "Leading the Blue Revolution", gives direction and outlines possibilities. Our values "Passion, Change, Trust and Share" inspire us to act in the right way and are key enablers for reaching our goals. Our leadership principles 'Inspire people', 'Make it happen', 'Live the values' and 'Think and act', provide an important guide for our managers.

Society is changing at a fast pace and impacts our people and our organisation. Our goal is to be an employer of choice, and our leaders have an important role to embrace and lead change, to attract and retain the best people, as well as remaining at the forefront of industry and digital innovation.

Leaders in Mowi, as part of a global company, must have broad cultural insight and a global mindset. We aim to develop our leaders through leadership development and mobility programmes, building a pipeline of leaders who will inspire, lead, and transform the business, the Mowi Way. In Mowi we nurture a strong performance culture. We aim at being a cost leader in our industry, with an emphasis on achievement of cost control and efficiency, driving operational excellence, and increasing sharing of information and best practices cross-organisation.

We are preparing the organisation for future needs and opportunities. Our productivity and efficiency programmes prepare the organisation and our people to meet current and future challenges in a forward looking and responsible way, including building a competitive organisation of highly skilled people and leaders, as well as right sizing activities.

People development

Our goal is to be an employer of choice, creating a workplace rooted in the Mowi culture, with a strong focus on attracting, developing, sharing, and learning talent. We strive to cultivate a robust learning culture, where employees take ownership of their individual growth, while Mowi provides the resources and opportunities necessary for developing future skills and supporting ongoing employee development

Our training and development programs support lifelong careers at Mowi. Learning opportunities are accessible to everyone, regardless of background or role. We maintain strong relationships with external partners, such as local schools and universities, offering apprenticeships and internships to young talents.

Learning is progressively shifting to digital platforms, making it more accessible to employees worldwide. At the heart of our learning initiatives is Mowi Academy, our global learning management platform. This advancement is closely aligned with Mowi's digitalization strategy, where digital learning is essential to adapting to the ongoing digital transformation in both our industry and society.

Ethical business conduct

Abiding by the Code of Conduct is an essential element in our ability to engender trust and is an integral part of the Mowi Way. Our employees are committed to high ethical standards in our business dealings worldwide. We expect our employees to make our Code of Conduct a personal commitment, as it provides direction and guidelines and clarifies where we draw the line. Our suppliers are required to take on the same commitment to comply with our Code of Conduct.

The Code of Conduct outlines the expected standards of behaviour for both internal and external interactions. It covers areas such as whistleblowing, anti-fraud and anti-corruption, financial reporting, and regulatory compliance, along with safety, fair working conditions, culture, human rights, and sustainability. Our group-wide policies are communicated globally, discussed with, and implemented by local management teams as part of our risk management, internal control, and governance processes. In the spirit of transparency, the Code of Conduct highlights the responsibility to report any violations or concerns.

The Code of Conduct also defines our relationship with suppliers and sets clear expectations for them. Through our collaboration with suppliers, we ensure that ethical standards are maintained throughout our supply chain.

Ethical business practices are closely tied to environmental responsibility. Through Mowi's Code of Conduct, we promote sustainable practices such as freshwater management, responsible waste disposal, and energy-saving initiatives, encouraging both our employees and suppliers to be mindful of their environmental impact.

Our whistleblower channel provides a secure way to report concerns related to potential compliance issues involving laws, regulations, and our Code of Conduct. All reported concerns are shared with the Board of Directors' Audit Committee on a quarterly basis.

Reporting of concern may cover any area including environment, human and labour rights, equality and diversity, health and safety, business ethics and anti-corruption, and conflict of interest. The channel aims to prevent discrimination and ensure compliant and professional behaviours. The whistleblower channel is managed by an independent third party. Notifications may be done anonymously and are handled confidentially. All cases are logged, evaluated,

risk assessed and investigated. Investigations are carried out either centrally or locally, depending on the subject matter of the concern and the person being reported upon, ensuring information from all relevant parties are gathered. Business units report the conclusions of their investigations, including initiatives, mitigation, remedy or any actions taken.

In the event of organizational changes within our operations, our company follows a fair, lawful, and transparent process. We ensure early notification and work closely with employee representatives in the affected organization(s) to maintain a collaborative approach.

The importance of ethical business standards and behaviour have continued to be communicated through our leadership development, training and internal communication, to ensure strong ethical business principles are known and upheld by management and employees.

Our global supplier relationship management system enhances our commitment to securing human rights across our operations and supply chain, playing a vital role in our human rights due diligence process. The system supports risk management processes carried out in our business units, and facilitates our processes on supplier qualification, risk management and mitigation, as well as audits, remedy, communication and training. The system provides the framework for our Human rights due diligence process and gives valuable data on our supply chain performance and compliance, which forms the basis for reporting, mitigation and remedy, learning and decision making in relation with our supply chain and other stakeholders.

We are partnering with our suppliers to ensure they align with global standards and our Code of Conduct. We will continue to work with the suppliers and engage with those with identified risk areas to improve.

Safeguarding of our employees' personal data is a continuous effort and a priority. Our network of GDPR coordinators facilitates the protection of personal data throughout the Group, ensuring compliance and enhancing the protection of personal data of employees and contractors. All employees are offered training on managing personal data. All employees who handle personal data have completed a mandatory personal data training.

Employee health and safety

Our goal is zero workplace injuries. Health and safety is foundational in everything we do and we will never compromise on safety for any other business priority. Our long-term goal is to foster a strong safety culture, and we are fully committed to ensuring a healthy and safe working environment for all employees, contractors, and visitors. This is achieved through systematic safety programs designed to raise awareness and cultivate a safetyfocused mindset.

By prioritizing worker safety and improving safety behaviours, we aim to reduce risks associated with injuries, illnesses, environmental incidents, and property damage, all of which can have significant financial consequences.

Building a strong talent pipeline has been a key strategic focus for Mowi in recent years, and we will continue to prioritize securing a diverse pool of talent. Attracting and retaining talent from various backgrounds will enable Mowi to harness the full potential of its workforce, with managers playing a crucial role in driving this success.

Leadership programmes

The nature of our work environment, its location, and the availability of skilled and motivated personnel is evolving rapidly, posing added challenges for our managers. To maintain Mowi's competitiveness, it is crucial that both our managers and employees demonstrate resilience, along with the ability to adapt and remain flexible in the face of change.

Mowi's Executive Leadership Programme is aimed at developing senior leaders for the future. The programme is carried out in collaboration with Harvard Business School, and managers from all parts of the value chain participates. The programme is fully digital, which again proved highly successful and effective and enabled

managers to maintain high attendance and engagement and effectively obtaining leadership skills.

Our goal is to continue to empower leaders and employees by building a learning culture and strengthening leadership skills and competencies to ensure we have employees and managers with business acumen, who inspire people, seize business opportunities, and transform the business. Our emphasis on talent and leadership development to secure the right skills and competences for the future continues. Our efforts on internal promotion will continue at full speed, to enhance career opportunities for our employees.

Preventive measures are taken where possible to counteract these risks, in line with our safety principles and with local laws and regulations on preventive work in the health and safety area.

Our progress in health and safety is measured through several key indicators, including lost-time incidents (LTIs) per million hours worked, and the rate of absenteeism. LTIs are tracked and reported in three categories of seriousness – low, medium, and high – for both employees and non-employees, and in categories of injuries. LTIs per million hours worked are down 80% vs. the level ten years ago, as the group has worked systematically to reduce the number of LTIs over time.

Employees are encouraged to report on incidents as well as nearmisses within their organisation. Employees may also report via the external whistleblower channel, where anonymous reporting is an option. Health and safety paragraphs are included in collective work agreements, including working hours and shift structures. Safety targets are included in the bonus agreements for all senior managers. Health and safety topics are routinely discussed in health and safety network meetings, with labour union representatives, or in local safety committees.

Our business units are certified on Health and Safety by recognised, third party certification standards, including ASC, Global G.A.P and GSA BAP. More information on certifications may be found at mowi. com/sustainability/certifications.

Due to the limited volumes of antimicrobials used in our farming operations and the type of antimicrobials used (which follows the World Health Organisation guidelines, see Planet section) the risk for antimicrobial resistance for the workforce is negligible.

Each Business Unit within Mowi is required to establish safety committees, which include participation from both management and employees, as well as labour unions where applicable. Every Business Unit also designates dedicated safety representatives responsible for overseeing safety across all locations and sites within their operations

Employee health and well-being

Our business units have continuously worked to highlight the link between healthy food, proper nutrition, and psychological well-being to foster wellness among our employees. Many units have introduced healthy eating initiatives at their locations. Our dedication to promoting nutritious eating is evident through ongoing training and workshops on nutrition, healthy habits, and overall wellbeing. These efforts aim to increase awareness of the benefits of incorporating salmon into diets, ensuring that both employees and partners are well-informed about its advantages.

A global engagement survey is conducted every two years to assess engagement and enablement. This survey serves as a valuable tool for Mowi to evaluate our performance as an employer and gain insights into the key factors influencing employee engagement and enablement.

Our objective is to make safety the top priority for all employees, ensuring everyone returns home safely each day. We recognize that many incidents are the result of inattention. Our global safety program, BrainSafe, is a behavior-based safety initiative that empowers employees, contractors, and hired staff to take control of their own safety and raise awareness across the organization.

The best outcomes are achieved through a holistic approach that considers individuals, their environment, and daily routines, with fostering a safety-oriented mindset being the key to success. Additionally, we aim to promote wellness among our employees by emphasising the link between healthy food, proper nutrition, and psychological well-being.

The global standards for Mowi's health and safety commitment are outlined in our health and safety policy and lifesaving rules. These principles guide our efforts toward achieving our zero-accident goal while fostering a culture of continuous learning and improvement by identifying, assessing, and mitigating potential risks of serious injuries or fatalities across our business units.

Safety program

Mowi operates under a systematic approach to hazard and risk management, including hazard identification, analysis of the potential risk, and mitigation strategies under the hierarchy of controls starting with elimination, substitution, engineering controls, administrative controls, and personal protective equipment (PPE). Necessary elements to support this process include:

Reporting

Reporting of all hazards, dangerous work environments, near misses, incidents and accidents.

Stakeholders

Including all stakeholders in risk analysis including subject-matter experts, end-users, leadership, and safety personnel.

Communication

Implementing safety communication methods across functions, levels and business units with opportunities for feedback loops.

Inspections

Conducting regular audits and inspections.

Analysis Effective root cause analysis for any incidents.

Safety training

Research & Development

Pioneering the future of aquaculture

Mowi 4.0

In 2024, we continued our digitalisation and automation journey from roe to plate, featuring our MOWInsight platform for data analytics, remote operation centres and SMART farming concepts.

Smart Farming

Integrating cutting-edge technology at every stage of salmon growth, from real-time water quality monitoring in RAS systems to the use of robots and next-generation underwater cameras in net-pen farming, ensuring enhanced fish health

and welfare.

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Mowi has made significant progress in leveraging AI across various aspects of its integrated value chain, including yield improvement, optimizing sales and supply planning, automating business processes, and introducing language models to facilitate administrative tasks, knowledge sharing

and internal training.

By harnessing cutting-edge technologies, Mowi's R&D is revolutionising fish farming, enhancing fish health and welfare, and driving overall sustainability.

Mowi is committed to addressing global challenges like food security and climate change by producing sustainable seafood with a low carbon footprint. Our vision of Leading the Blue Revolution aligns with the UN's Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021-2030), focusing on innovation to support a sustainable ocean economy. Mowi emphasises caring for their fish and producing healthy food sustainably, leveraging their unique value chain and continuously investing in new technologies and research. From data to insights to artificial intelligence

Smart Farming is happening all across Mowi. It consists of three main elements – Remote Operations Centres, Seawater Technologies, and the MOWInsight data platform – that mutually reinforce each other to push our farming operations into the digital age.

Further down our value chain, Industry 4.0 Smart Factory and Smart Operations technologies are being applied in a variety of additional ways to automate and streamline our operations. We are trying out new vision technologies and experimenting with AI together with the world's best technology vendors to assess how digitalisation can transform our factories.

We are adopting advanced supply chain planning tools, and we have successfully automated certain administrative sales processes through Robotics Process Automation (RPA), thereby reducing our FTE count and freeing up time for staff to focus on more value-added activities. These innovation projects illustrate how Mowi is taking advantage of new Information Technology to deliver business value.

MOWInsight is at the heart of our digitalisation effort – and is a real game changer for Mowi. Gathering data throughout our value chain helps us be more data-driven in the various individual parts of our operations. But it's so much more than that. Establishing a digital

How we innovate

Mowi's innovation activities, from local initiatives to global research projects, focus on producing sustainable, healthy, and safe seafood. Our vision of Leading the Blue Revolution is integrated with our R&D and technical development efforts across the entire value chain, requiring sustained financial commitment, diverse competencies, and scientific expertise. Over time, Mowi has built world-leading R&D and technical capacities within Mowi Genetics, Mowi Feed, Processing Excellence and the Global R&D and Technical Department. These efforts, including cuttingedge genetic selection, tailored feeds, SMART Farming and SMART factory innovations, keep Mowi at the forefront of the Blue Revolution. In 2024, Mowi has invested EUR 45* (35) million in R&D, with an additional annual fee paid to the Norwegian Seafood Research Fund (FHF) to support the aquaculture industry.

Optimising our value chain

Mowi's innovation efforts have significantly enhanced our integrated value chain by leveraging access to big data and machine learning techniques. This approach allows for precise and rapid improvements across genetics, production, and processing, giving Mowi a competitive edge and enabling them to tap into previously untapped potentials.

value chain means that our activities are connected in a whole new way. This means that we can link an outcome to specific actions and events in previous stages of the lifecycle of the fish – and we can use upstream data to improve downstream operations. For example, when we harvest our fish we get clear data that provide valuable answers on genetic performance. The same data can provide valuable information to our downstream operations so that they know how to maximise the value of the raw material based on parameters like size, colour and quality.

The size of Mowi and the nature of our integrated value chain means that we have access to broader and deeper data set than our peers – and we are constantly adding new sources of data and pushing for new insights. As we are advancing into the exciting era of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Mowi has a better and stronger base of data on which to build our AI models, which can give greater value faster to the company.

Long before Artificial Intelligence (AI) became a global hot topic, Mowi started working with leading technology companies to use cameras, sensors and machine learning models to improve seawater operations by monitoring biomass growth, counting lice, and run AI-enabled autonomous feeding, resulting in an awardwinning "undersea AI" solution.

Quality tests at Jøsnøya primary processing facility, Mowi Norway Mid.

With access to 20% of global Atlantic salmon farming data, it puts us in a unique position to take advantage of advancements in Artificial Intelligence across our integrated value chain. Our cloud-based platform enhances decision-making via Big Data analytics, data science, KPI reporting, and AI. Using Large Language Models (LLM) and generative AI, we streamline administrative tasks and improve knowledge sharing and skill development.

Here some examples:

  • Machine Learning models and real-time information about fish growth and fish health helps improve our operations in relation to feeding, welfare, and harvesting. Some of this information is also valuable for downstream operations.
  • Our MOWInsight data platform can be queried directly through natural language (Generative AI / LLM) to provide answers to questions to topics like quality procedures and reporting.
  • AI applied on images and other data sources from the smolt vaccination process help improve fish welfare at an early stage of the lifecycle of the salmon.
  • Mowi Genetics is using a wide variety of tools and methods to gather and analyse large data sets throughout the life cycle of the salmon, including use of AI on images to understand growth, resistance, and other variables in genetics.
  • We see significant opportunities with AI to enhance sustainability by optimising raw material allocation, ensuring that the right quality and sizes are efficiently utilised to create products that best align with customer needs and maximise value.
  • Standard software solutions contain copilots and other AI tools that help reduce administrative tasks. HR, for example, is reporting efficiencies in tasks such as writing job descriptions and job postings with generative AI.

Progress in Breeding and Genetics

Mowi's breeding programmes have rapidly progressed through high-resolution data adoption, enabling more precise selection of top broodstock genetics. Advanced Breeding & Genetic Selection is now fully implemented across all programmes, utilising tens of thousands of DNA markers to enhance breeding value accuracy. A standardised analysis pipeline has strengthened the reliability and consistency of genetic evaluations, ensuring long-term genetic progress and improved performance.

Further advancing our data-driven approach, Mowi has introduced automated data collection in broodstock grading at sea for the first time. This marks a significant step toward future autonomous sorting and data-driven selection of superior broodstock for egg production. In Norway, genetic improvements in Cardiomyopathy Syndrome (CMS) resistance have led to a reduction in mortality rates in 2024, a trend expected to continue as resistance levels increase. Selection for improved growth at sea has also contributed to record-high harvest volumes and improved feed conversion efficiency, with further R&D focused on maximising these gains.

Extensive research into breeding for sea lice resistance has reinforced the complexity of this trait, helping to identify key areas for further study. Ensuring that genetic improvements result in a meaningful and consistent reduction in lice treatments remains a core focus of our breeding strategy. Looking ahead, Mowi is actively developing new genomic technologies to tackle biological challenges, including fish sterility, to enhance production efficiency and sustainability in areas where traditional breeding approaches have limited power. By continuing to invest in cutting-edge research and innovation, we remain committed to driving the next generation of genetic advancements in aquaculture.

Innovation in Mowi Feed

In terms of R&D in Mowi Feed, our objective is to better quantify the nutrient requirements of salmon and to fully exploit the true value of sustainably sourced raw materials. Our research is focused on four areas: Nutrient requirements; raw material optimisation and utilisation; fish health, welfare and quality; and feed technology.

On nutrient requirements, Mowi Feed continues to focus on optimising phosphorous nutrition for salmon. We have identified ways to reduce phosphorous levels in feed for large salmon without compromising bone health and reaffirmed phosphorous requirements for small fish in freshwater. These efforts not only reduce phosphorous consumption and emissions but also improve fish growth and feed conversion ratios. We continue to work towards increasing nutrient density of salmon feed while decreasing indigestible carbohydrates and superfluous minerals.

Through our activities in the Norwegian Research Council financed programme, Millennial Salmon, we continue to investigate lipidenergy metabolism and essential fatty acid requirements, with focus on long chain omega-3 PUFAs. This research is crucial for managing the use of omega-3 from fish oil and future sources like algal and GM oil seeds.

On raw material optimisation, our long-term goal is to achieve independence from specific raw material sources, ensuring cost competitiveness and flexibility in commodity markets. Fish meal remains the benchmark feed material due to its digestible protein, balanced amino acids, high-quality lipids, and micronutrients. Despite efforts to reduce dependence on fish meal, it will continue to play a crucial role in salmon nutrition. We are revisiting our fish meal quality criteria for both small and large salmon and working with suppliers to meet Mowi's standards. While we don't plan to replace fish meal with marine invertebrates like krill or copepods, we are evaluating these materials for their unique features as more tactical ingredients.

Our search for emerging, non-marine, ingredient sources has shown significant potential in protein concentrates from pulses, legumes, and underexploited cereals. These materials are nearing commercial viability and could compete with soy protein concentrate. The Millennial Salmon project also evaluates oil-rich biomass, algal oil, and insect products as salmon feed ingredients. More details can be found in our policy on emerging feed raw materials on Mowi.com.

On fish health, welfare and quality, promoting fish resilience through feed is central to Mowi Feed's strategy. We conducted several projects using functional ingredients like plant extracts and essential oil blends to support salmon exposed to skin and gill damage. Nutritional antioxidants, including vitamins E & C, carotenoids, polyphenols, and selenium, play a crucial role in salmon health and quality. Further research in 2024, supported our new winter health feed strategy and focus on skin and gill repair and robustness against viral cardiomyopathies.

Mowi Feed has focused on developing winter and spring feeds for salmon grown in regions with water temperatures below 6°C. These conditions affect salmon digestion and metabolism, requiring different feed formulations compared to summer and autumn. In 2024, Mowi Feed continued to apply a low temperature-specific digestibility coefficients and updated the specifications for winter health feeds, implemented across Mowi's operations in Norway, The Faroe Islands, and Iceland.

On feed technology, we continue to optimise feed formulation and feed manufacturing techniques by partial fish oil replacement with algal oils. Organic regulations posed challenges in retaining high fat levels in salmon feeds, but we invested in optimizing feed processes and testing organic-compliant ingredients to stabilize fats without affecting digestibility. Additionally, we developed feeds for closed and semi-closed systems (RAS) to maintain high water quality and nutrient retention.

You can read more about our effort in feed, including our new feed range optimised for closed rearing systems and our updated policy on emerging feed raw materials on Mowi.com/R&D.

Innovation in Farming

Our Global R&D and Technical department, in collaboration with Farming divisions, have worked to close knowledge gaps in freshwater and seawater farming, focusing on improving fish performance, health and welfare.

Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS)

Developing and optimising farming practices in freshwater

Our smolt and postsmolt production is dependent on evolving RAS technology, Closed Containment Systems (CCS) as well as traditional and proven flow through systems with reuse of water. It is vital to us to provide all life stages of our salmon with a healthy and sustainable environment safeguarding welfare and production volumes.

Our main focus regarding freshwater technology and the production environment are:

  • Upgrade production sites for smolts and postsmolts in Norway
  • Update our ONE Mowi RAS global standard based on recent learnings and ensure best practices for design and operation of RAS systems
  • Validate new RAS systems for water quality and microbiological performance
  • Test and contribute to the development of new CCS for postsmolts
  • Ensure smooth startup and restart of new and existing RAS systems
  • Contribute to development of new smart robotics for tank wall cleaning
  • Prevent human error by training and implementing results from innovations and learnings in RAS
  • Share key learning points after R&D projects and incidents with the freshwater global technical team
  • Pursue constant improvement through R&D, focusing on smoltification, water quality, light regimes and microbiology

Monitoring the production at Jøsnøya primary processing facility, Mowi Norway Mid.

FRESHWATER PRODUCTION CLOSED CONTAINMENT SYSTEMS SEAWATER PRODUCTION PROCESSING

In 2024, we strengthen our large-scale production of postsmolts in large marine CCS. First harvest of fish with CCS origin indicates that low mortality and zero lice treatment is achievable. We have developed and validated particle traps and end-of-pipe cleaning systems in the new CCS, comparing the performance of these postsmolts with traditional smolts. Our results showed that CCS can keep sea lice levels below treatment thresholds and that recovery of valuable resources from the discharge is possible.

We use RAS technology to produce more than half of our smolts, applying versions of RAS in all business units except Ireland. Our RAS expertise is based on years of experience and participation in research projects. We are continuously implementing results from several research-projects and we continue to align our staff's understanding of RAS technology through internal training.

Improved production protocols, together with increased sharing of knowledge and cooperation across business units, avoided massmortality incidents in our land-based smolt and postsmolt production in 2024. Land-based biomass production of smolt has almost doubled in Norway since 2019. This volume growth is gained as a result of the postsmolt strategy.

By the end of 2024, Mowi's postsmolt capacity was close to 40 million, equivalent to a quarter of the smolt produced annually. The postsmolt share in Mowi Norway was approximately 50%, excluding Region North, and around 30% in Mowi Scotland. This will drive higher license utilization and improve biological KPIs through shorter production times at sea and increased survival rates. Our 2024 focus was on ensuring the quality and quantity of smolts, monitoring the welfare and performance of postsmolts produced

in RAS and CCS, and validating new freshwater systems to reduce risk and enhance global learning.

We support external R&D to improve smolt welfare, growth, and survival, ensure stable microbiota in RAS, and find alternative treatments for biosecurity and production protocols. Additionally, we continued to develop SMART farming within freshwater production, such as automatic tank washers, accurate biomass measurement and calculation, and real-time H2S monitoring systems.

Developing and optimising farming practices in seawater net pens

Our R&D and technical development efforts in farming focus on equipment and farming practices improvement, sea lice management tools and safeguarding fish health and welfare.

On farming equipment and best practice, Mowi has reduced high-pressure cleaning of salmon nets and dependency on copperbased antifouling paints since 2020. In Mowi Norway we continue the testing and adoption of robotic net cleaning technology. We continue to refine our net- and antifouling strategies, as well as testing and introducing new high-performing and durable net concepts. Additionally, we are working on several projects to improve predation control by optimizing net design.

Our focus on defining best practices for farming in exposed locations continued in 2024, focusing on selecting the best pen equipment for high-energy sites. In Norway, we initiated activities at the Blue Revolution Center (BRC) in collaboration with Mowi, Sintef, and NMBU to optimize technology, operations, and biology for high-exposure sites.

  • 15 Market insight for planning and innovations
  • 16 Optimised logistics & temperature control
  • 17 Optimised nutrition production, by-products
  • 18 Cyber security

Together with suppliers, we continually develop and refine riskbased tools to select the best pen equipment for all farm conditions. This optimization includes pen choice, net material, and geometry for both sheltered and exposed locations. We ensure all farms are equipped with best-in-class production equipment tailored to their environment, reducing escape risks and safeguarding salmon welfare.

On sea lice management, we continue to improve our sea lice treatment systems to be gentler on salmon, advanced automatic sea lice counting and prevention technologies. We initiated projects to enhance lice control in harsh weather conditions, such as using submerged pens in Region Mid in Norway. We also continued to refine best practises for non-medicinal combination treatments and the development and testing of passive treatment concepts.

Additionally, we implemented solutions to improve the performance and survival of farmed cleanerfish and validated best practices for their lice control. Our Breeding and Genetics division continued to focus on genomic selection for lice resistance in the Mowi strain.

On fish health, we are working with suppliers to develop and improve vaccines, aiming for better survival rates moving forward. Extensive data analysis on pancreas disease, gill health, wounds, and cardiomyopathies has provided insights to optimize our biosecurity programs, veterinary health plans, and best practices. Key projects on gill health have increased our knowledge and improved management approaches. We continued investigating SRS management practices and researching alternative health products and vaccines, and initiated activities to monitor and prevent against harmful species of plankton and jellyfish.

Board statements

Board of Directors' report

Board of Directors' report

Strong operational performance resulted in record-high revenue and volumes in 2024. In Farming, seawater growth performance was alltime high and there was a general improvement in biological KPIs. Mowi Farming maintained its competitive cost position versus peers. Mowi also set new volume and revenue records in Consumer Products and Feed, including all-time high earnings in Feed. Yet again, Mowi was shown to be at the forefront of sustainable food production as the company was top tanked in several prestigious ESG ratings, including the number one position in the Coller FAIRR index for the sixth consecutive year. The Board takes pride in these results which demonstrate that we continue to deliver on our strategy centered on volume growth, cost competitiveness and sustainability.

2024 was a record year with all-time high operational revenues of EUR 5 616.6 million and harvest volumes of 501,530 tonnes for the group. Mowi's operational earnings decreased to EUR 828.9 million from EUR 1 027.5 million in the previous year driven by lower achieved prices and realisation of higher cost, partly offset by higher harvest volumes. Although Farming cost per kg increased slightly from 2023 due to previous inflation, cash cost to stock was reduced during 2024, and cost at stock per year end was EUR 0.13 per kg LWT lower than the year before. Mowi maintained its good cost position relative to peers in the various regions during 2024. Farming KPIs including survival rate, seawater production rate and feed conversion ratio were improved in 2024 vs. 2023.

In Farming, volume growth, costs, and sustainability are the three main pillars the company is working along. When it comes to volume growth, Mowi has increased volumes significantly in recent years. As recently as 2018, volumes were 375,000 GWT, and with its 2025 volume guidance of 530,000 GWT, Mowi will have grown its farming volumes by as much as 155,000 GWT in the period. This is equivalent to a CAGR of 5.1%, well above market growth of 2.8%. Mowi's goal is to continue to grow volumes in the coming years through organic growth and accretive M&A. On 30 January

company for the sixth year in a row by the Coller FAIRR Protein Producer Index. This index assesses 60 of the largest listed global meat, dairy and aquaculture companies on ten environmental, social and governance themes aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Overall, Mowi was rated 'Industry Best' against many of the criteria aligned to the SDGs including sustainability governance, water use & scarcity and waste & pollution.

Mowi achieved a group-wide ROCE of 15.5% which is above our long-term target of 12%. The company's financial position at yearend was solid with a covenant equity ratio of 49.8% and NIBD at EUR 1 867.1 million. NIBD was above the long-term target level of EUR 1 700 million, but Mowi will revert to a revised NIBD target following closing of the Nova Sea acquisition. Dividends of NOK 6.60 per share were paid to shareholders in 2024, down from 7.20 in 2023 on lower earnings. Financial EBIT decreased to EUR 758.6 million in 2024 from EUR 981.0 million in 2023, driven by the price development.

The Mowi Group

At Mowi, we believe the right way to supply a growing world population with healthy, nutritious protein products is by sustainably farming the ocean. Our vision is "Leading the Blue Revolution" and our ambition is to be a world-leading, integrated producer of seafood proteins. In order to achieve this, we aim to capitalise on our integrated value chain and be the leader in key areas from fish feed production to meeting the needs of the consumer market.

We are the world's largest producer of farm-raised salmon, both by volume and revenue, offering fresh, whole salmon, processed salmon and other processed seafood products to customers in approximately 70 countries. We currently engage in three principal types of production activities:

  • Salmon feed production in Norway and Scotland;
  • Salmon farming and primary processing of salmon in Norway, Scotland, Canada, Chile, Ireland, Iceland and the Faroe Islands; and
  • Secondary processing of seafood in Norway, Scotland, Ireland, Poland, France, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain, Turkey, Chile, Canada, United States, Japan, Vietnam, Taiwan, China and South Korea.

Mowi is self-sufficient for high-quality fish feed in Europe, produced at two top modern feed mills.

We are working along three main pillars in Farming; volume growth, costs and sustainability. When it comes to volume growth, we are focused on capitalising on the many organic growth opportunities within our current license footprint, and volumes are expected to exceed 600,000 tonnes in 2029 when also including Nova Sea. Mowi Farming grows volumes by applying new farming technologies including realising effects from our investments in postsmolt, i.e. large and robust smolt, in addition to purchasing additional capacity and undertaking M&A activities.

2025, Mowi announced that the company has entered into a share purchase agreement which will increase Mowi's ownership of Nova Sea from 49% to 95%. The transaction is subject to competition approval in addition to certain other standard closing conditions. Expected harvest volumes for Nova Sea in 2025 are 52,000 GWT.

In Norway, our most important farming region, 2024 harvest volumes reached a record-high level of 303,501 GWT on improved production and increased smolt stocking. This puts Mowi Norway towards the top of license utilisation and production efficiency in Norway. When it comes to cost and sustainability, Mowi Norway also performs very well compared with peers, but the company continues relentlessly to seek further improvements in these areas.

With regards to Farming cost, feed cost has trended down throughout 2024 and we expect positive developments also in 2025. Full cost increased somewhat from 2024 due to previous inflation, partly offset by positive effects from strong cost focus, dilution effects from higher volumes and overall improved operational KPIs. Furthermore, Mowi's farming cost has over time been the best or second-best compared with peers in the geographical regions where the company operates. Nevertheless, Mowi continuously work on cost measures through further development of farming technologies, adoption of more effective processes and continuing cost-saving initiatives.

When it comes to the market, prices in Norway were negatively impacted by winter sore issues in the first half compounded by string jellyfish, and prices in Americas were affected by temporarily muted US demand following increased cost-of-living. Overall demand in Europe was good, and there were positive retail developments in the US during the year. Global market supply increase of salmon was modest at 1%.

Mowi's value-added operations had another record year with the highest ever produced volume of 247,332 tonnes and good operational earnings for the Consumer Products segment at EUR 145.8 million, equivalent to ROCE of 19.0%. Mowi Consumer Products delivered improved yield in 2024, and our Smart Factories concept initiated by the global Mowi Processing Excellence Team has driven the introduction of more modern technologies and automation across our factories in Europe, the US and Asia to reduce cost and increase value.

Mowi Feed produces salmon feed which performs very well with regards to seawater growth and biological performance. Feed is the most important input factor in salmon production. Mowi is selfsufficient for feed in Europe with its modern and technologically advanced plants in Valsnes, Norway and Kyleakin, Scotland. In 2024, the plants produced all-time high volumes of 582 061 tonnes of feed, up from 527 751 tonnes in 2023 driven by good growth in our Farming operations. Operational EBITDA came in at EUR 62.2 million, up from EUR 52.1 million in 2023, equivalent to a return on sales of 5.5%. Mowi continues to work on producing highperforming feed and optimising feed ingredients while maintaining its focus on sustainability and high quality. With two modern facilities strategically located close to its farming operations, Mowi Feed is well positioned to streamline operations and improve costs. To meet growing feed demand we have decided to expand our Norwegian feed plant with a new production line which will increase production capacity by 60 000 tonnes. In March 2025, Mowi initiated a strategic review of the Feed division. The review will assess all available options, including a sale. The background for the strategic review is that Mowi has grown significantly in Farming in just a few years, and is approaching 600k GWT harvest volumes with production in seven countries and 11 farming regions with all the complexity that entails. Mowi also has an extensive downstream business. In order to streamline our operations, the time is ripe to assess how our Feed division will be organised in the future.

Our commitment to the sustainable development of the industry continues. In 2024, we continued the implementation of our sustainability strategy, and demonstrated significant progress in key strategic programmes such as Mowi's scope 1 and scope 2 GHG emissions in line with our Science Based Targets (SBT). The sustainable development of our industry demands improved solutions to the sea lice challenge, and Mowi is working on several different initiatives to address this, including technology projects, improved treatment capacity and investment in our freshwater facilities. 95% of Mowi's committed financing is labelled green or sustainability-linked and the group is on track to meet its 100% target by 2026. In 2024, Mowi was ranked the number one

In Mowi Norway, our largest and most important farming entity, harvest volumes reached a record-high level of 304k GWT in 2024 and license utilisation and production efficiency are industryleading. The guidance of 315k GWT for Mowi Norway in 2025 implies a growth of 85k GWT since 2018 and an impressive CAGR of 4.6% vs. 3.1% for the industry. 2029 volumes are expected to exceed 400k GWT including Nova Sea.

In 2021, Mowi Farming launched a venture into postsmolt. Stocking of robust and large postsmolt with target size 700 grams and above has several advantages: Time in sea is reduced, which increases survival and reduces risk and treatment needs. Furthermore, turnover of license capacity is improved. Cost is reduced through less treatment costs and biological costs, in addition to positive scale effects from higher volumes. Following completion of the Fjæra (Norway Region South) and Nordheim (Norway Region Mid) land-based freshwater facilities in 2023 and the Haukå (Norway Region West) facility in 2024, approx. 40% of the postsmolt programme in Mowi Norway is completed. Mowi Norway also has postsmolt production in closed containment systems in sea. The results of these investments are now beginning to show and at yearend 2024, the postsmolt share in Mowi Norway was approx. 50% when the naturally more resilient Region North is excluded from the equation. Total postsmolt capacity in Mowi was close to 40 million postsmolt, equivalent to a quarter of the smolt produced annually. This is expected to further improve license utilisation and result in improved biological KPIs including survival rates and average harvest weights.

On 30 January 2025 Mowi announced it was increasing its ownership in Nova Sea from 49% to 95% by entering into an agreement with Nova Sea's main shareholder to acquire its controlling stake. Nova Sea is a leading salmon farmer in production area 8 in Northern Norway and covers the entire value chain from broodstock and smolt production to harvesting and sales. The company expects to harvest 52k GWT of salmon in 2025.

Mowi Scotland has an annual postsmolt production of 7 million (approximately 30% coverage), with lower capital expenditure, shorter realisation time and lower running production cost than an equivalent land-based facility. Our postsmolt operations in Loch Etive are developing as planned. The four site system is being fallowed twice per year, which has resulted in major biological improvements and much lower sea lice pressure. Another important part of Mowi Scotland's biological turnaround plan is to become selfsufficient for eggs. Mowi Scotland is therefore constructing a new broodstock and egg facility. When complete in 2025, it will provide a secure supply for 100% of Mowi Scotland's egg requirements. Mowi Scotland is also developing new sites to utilise new licenses awarded in recent years. 2025 volumes for Mowi Scotland are guided at 70k GWT, up from 66k GWT in 2024. Expected 2029 volumes are 80k GWT.

In Mowi's operations in Chile, overall biology and cost performance has been good. Volumes increased by 5% on increased smolt stocking, and exceeded 70k tonnes for the first time since 2008. Mowi expects to grow volumes from 73k GWT in 2024 to 77k GWT in 2025 and plans to increase volumes further in the coming years in line with the traffic light system in Chile. Expected 2029 volumes are 95k GWT.

The strategic review of Mowi Canada West following the changes in framework conditions is ongoing, and Mowi will explore all available options before taking the appropriate action.

In Canada East, biological performance has been good over time. Cost at stock has also improved. Canada East is not impacted by the above-mentioned changes in framework conditions in British Columbia. With increasing smolt stocking on the back of improved biological control, volumes are expected to increase in the coming years from the guided 2025 level of 16k GWT. Mowi has many unused licenses in this region and there is significant potential for growth. Expected 2029 volumes are 25k GWT.

In Iceland, Mowi acquired 51.28% of Arctic Fish in 2022. 2024 volumes were 11k GWT and expected 2029 volumes are 25k GWT. The current cost level is too high, and streamlining of operations and cost reductions continue to be high priorities for our Icelandic operations.

Mowi also has some inherent growth opportunities in its operations in Ireland and the Faroes. Combined volume guidance for 2025 from these regions is 20k GWT.

Moreover, the ongoing implementation of Smart Farming technologies is expected to have a positive effect on volumes and costs, as well as on fish welfare and sustainability. With Smart Farming we will get a fully digital integrated value chain through, amongst other initiatives, remote operation centres, automatic feeding, real-time monitoring of biomass, digital lice counting and tracking fish welfare using artificial intelligence.

Downstream, we currently operate 21 secondary processing facilities, of which the largest are located in Ustka, Poland; Bruges, Belgium; Rosyth, Scotland; Boulogne, France and in Miami and Dallas, USA. To achieve our ambition of growth in sales of both new and existing products, we must have the necessary production capacity, and with our investments in processing plants and automation in recent years, Mowi is well positioned for further growth. The MOWI brand is now present in 16 countries. Mowi will now focus on making improvements in the countries where the brand is already launched. Our long-term target for the MOWI brand strategy of EUR 1 billion in turnover at 10% earnings margin remains unchanged, with an ultimate goal of de-commoditising the salmon market over time.

Financial Results

Financial results are created through interaction between people, the natural environment and technology. Our goal is to find an optimal combination of these elements to create long-term success, whilst understanding that our growth must be environmentally, socially and financially sustainable. We use key performance indicators within our four interrelated guiding principles, Profit, Planet, Product and People to measure the Group's progress. This contributes to sustainable long-term results for all stakeholders. Developments with regard to key performance indicators within each guiding principle are discussed in detail in separate sections in this Integrated Annual Report.

There has been a significant inflationary cost pressure the last years, and nominal costs have increased. Nevertheless, measured in percentage of revenue, cost of materials was stable in 2024 vs. 2023. This includes costs for harvested salmon and sold products and represents the individually largest cost component. Operational improvements, scale effects from higher volume, and cost saving measures including the productivity programme, partly offset the inflationary pressure. Salary/personnel costs were somewhat up measured in percentage of revenue, reflecting pressure from increased cost-of-living and increased activity. Other operating expenses were also somewhat up reflecting increased regulatory/ compliance costs and high inflation. Increased investments and completion of several large projects led to increased depreciation costs. Revenue and other income for the year ended December 31, 2024 totalled EUR 5 603.8 million, an increase of 2%, or EUR 98.0 million compared with the EUR 5 505.7 million achieved in 2023. The increase in revenue was explained by 6% higher harvest volumes and 6.5% increase in sold volumes in Consumer Products, partly offset by lower market prices. Farming spot prices decreased somewhat compared with the high levels of 2023. Prices in Norway were negatively impacted by winter sore issues in the first half compounded by string jellyfish, and prices in Americas were affected by temporarily muted US demand following increased cost-of-living. Mowi achieved a combined global price achievement 2% above the weighted reference price in 2024, same as in 2023.

In order to address this cost pressure, Mowi has completed global cost-saving programmes since 2018 with EUR 327 million in annualised savings, and a new EUR 30 million cost savings programme has been initiated for 2025. The company will ensure that cost-saving initiatives do not compromise safety, quality and growth.

Revenue and volumes

Mowi harvested a total of 501 530 tonnes gutted weight in the year ended December 31, 2024. Volumes were all-time high for the group as a result of good seawater growth performance and increased smolt stocking. Volumes were also all-time high in Norway at 303 501 tonnes, in Chile at 72 694 tonnes and in Scotland at 65

977 tonnes. Mowi Canada harvested 30 426 tonnes which was an increase from 2023. Combined volumes from Mowi Faroes and Mowi Ireland were 18 265 tonnes. Arctic Fish in Iceland contributed with 10 667 tonnes in 2024.

Cost of materials

The cost of materials for the year ended December 31, 2024 totalled EUR 2 796.2 million compared with EUR 2 738.1 million in 2023. Cost per kg harvested in Farming (realised blended full cost in box across all regions) increased by 3% which was better than the 10% increase the year before. With lower cost at stock per yearend, realised full cost in 2025 is expected to be lower than 2024. Cost per kg in the Feed segment decreased from 2023 on lower feed raw material prices. In Sales & Marketing, raw material cost per kg decreased due to the lower salmon prices, while improved operations including yield have contributed positively.

Salary and personnel expenses

Total salaries and personnel expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024 totalled EUR 705.5 million. This item increased to 13% in 2024 from 12% in 2023 measured relative to revenues, driven by salary pressure from increased cost-of-living and increased activity. Since 2019, productivity has been improved by 21%, from 6% nominal FTE decrease and 15% increased volumes through the productivity programme launched in 2020. In 2025 the target is to reduce FTEs by another 300.

Other operating expenses

Other operating expenses increased from 13% in 2023 to 15% in 2024, measured in percentage of revenues. The increase from 2023 was EUR 148.9 million, mainly explained by maintenance costs, rent/leases and waste collection costs, partly offset by lower electricity/fuel costs, third party services and travel costs.

Net fair value adjustment and onerous contracts provision

Mowi recognised a net fair value adjustment of EUR 40.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, relatively stable from EUR 37.4 million in 2023. The change in the onerous contracts provision in 2024 was positive EUR 27.6 million compared with a negative effect of EUR 18.3 million in 2023. The net effect of these line items is an adjustment of EUR 68.2 million in 2024 on a positive price outlook at year end. This was an increase from the adjustment of EUR 19.1 million in 2023. For more information, please refer to Note 6 to the Group financial statements.

Restructuring costs and other provisions

In 2024, we recognised EUR 19.5 million in net restructuring costs mainly related to Canada West.

License/production fees

In 2024, we recognised EUR 43.8 million in production fees, an increase from prior year, based on increased fees and increased volumes. For more information, please refer to Note 15 to the Group financial statements.

Income/loss from associated companies and joint ventures

Income from associated companies and joint ventures of EUR 29.5 million in 2024, relatively stable from EUR 28.4 million in 2023. The income is mainly related to our associated company Nova Sea in

Norway where Mowi is the largest shareholder, owning 49% of the company. For more information, please see Note 21 to the Group financial statements. In 2025, Mowi entered into a share purchase agreement which will increase Mowi's ownership to 95%, and when the transaction is closed, Nova Sea will be fully consolidated into Mowi group figures.

Impairment losses

Impairment losses and write-downs recognised in 2024 of EUR 66.2 million was mainly related to changed framework conditions in Canada West. See Note 8 to the Group financial statements for further details.

Earnings before financial items (EBIT)

As a result of the items described above, in addition to nonoperating items and depreciation costs, EBIT came to EUR 758.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2024, compared with EUR 981.0 million in 2023.

Operational EBIT

Group Operational EBIT decreased to EUR 828.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 from EUR 1 027.5 million in 2023. This change was the result of lower achieved prices, partly offset by higher volumes.

Return on capital employed (ROCE)

We achieved a return on capital employed (ROCE) of 15.5% in 2024, which exceeds our long-term target of 12.0%. The comparable figure for 2023 was 21.3%.

Financial items

Interest expenses increased to EUR 143.5 million in 2024 from EUR 113.1 million in 2023. Net interest-bearing debt at year-end totalled EUR 1 867.1 million versus 1 790.3 million in 2023. Net currency effects for the year ended December 31, 2024 amounted to EUR 9.0 million, compared with EUR 35.9 million in 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2024, other financial items totalled EUR 7.6 million compared with EUR -5.1 million in 2023. For more information about financial items, please see Note 12 to the Group financial statements.

Income taxes

For the year ended December 31, 2024, we recognised a tax expense in profit and loss of EUR 156.9 million, compared with EUR 459.2 million in 2023. The main driver for the higher tax expense in 2023 was the Norwegian resource rent tax including implementation effects of EUR 224.6 million. For more information, including a full reconciliation between earnings before taxes and the tax expense, please see Note 15 to the Group financial statements.

Profit and loss for the year

As a result of the foregoing, our profit and loss for 2024 came to EUR 474.8 million, somewhat up from EUR 439.5 million in 2023.

Business areas and segments

Feed

In 2024, the Feed division generated operating revenues of EUR 1,122 million and Operational EBITDA of EUR 62.2 million (EUR 52.1 million). Operational EBIT was EUR 46.8 million in 2024, up from EUR 35.5 million in 2023. Mowi Feed's core assets include a 460,000 tonnes feed mill in Norway and a 240,000 tonnes feed

mill in Scotland. The two top modern mills have a combined capacity of 700,000 tonnes including an ongoing 60,000 tonnes capacity expansion expected to be fully operational in Q2 2026. In 2024, Mowi Feed sold 584 586 tonnes, up from 523 167 tonnes in 2023 driven by good growth in our farming operations, and supplied 96% of the feed requirements of Mowi's European salmon farming operations in 2024 (95% in 2023). Feed raw material costs have improved for most input factors, including marine ingredients, compared with 2023. Consequently, feed sales prices were reduced during 2024 in line with industry costplus pricing. In March 2025, Mowi initiated a strategic review of the Feed division. The review will assess all available options, including a sale.

Farming

Farming's Operational EBIT totalled EUR 443.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2024, compared with EUR 682.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease was mainly due to lower achieved prices, in addition to somewhat higher realised cost, partly offset by increased volumes. Cost at stock per year-end improved from 2023 and realised full cost in 2025 is expected to be decreased. Harvested volume of 501 530 tonnes (474 664 tonnes) was all-time high.

For details of our farming entities' operational performance, please see the comments under Operational performance by country of origin in Part 2 of this Integrated Annual Report.

Sales & Marketing

Our Sales & Marketing operations consist of the reporting segments Markets and Consumer Products.

Markets

Markets achieved Operational EBIT of EUR 206.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared with EUR 170.1 million in 2023 on higher volumes. The earnings effect of approx. EUR 29 million of upgrading downgraded salmon in Norway is included in the Markets segment and was higher than normal in 2024 due to the winter sore situation.

Consumer Products

Mowi Consumer Products is organised geographically, but constitutes one reporting segment. Consumer Products' Operational EBIT for the year ended December 31, 2024 came to EUR 145.8 million, compared with EUR 151.7 million in 2023. Mowi Consumer Products produced record-high volumes on continued good retail demand and significant yield and efficiency improvements. Volumes were 247 333 tonnes product weight (232 169 tonnes). Still, earnings are mainly related to non-branded products, but the Consumer Products division has a target of further increasing the share of MOWI-branded volumes. The MOWI brand has been launched in 16 countries and Mowi will further enhance the value proposition downstream in the years to come and our branding strategy, with its ultimate goal of de-commoditising the salmon category, plays a key part in this context.

Licenses

The recognised book value of our fish-farming licenses in our Statement of Financial Position was EUR 1 233.9 million and EUR 1 213.9 million as at December 31, 2024 and 2023 respectively. The increase is mainly attributable to the purchase of farming licenses in Norway of EUR 64.0 million through the 2024 traffic light auction and fixed-price MAB purchase. Measured in EUR per kg salmon harvested, book license values in Norway were approximately EUR 2.2 in 2024 (2.0 in 2023). Mowi's license utilisation in Norway has improved in the past few years to exceed the industry benchmark. Through the postsmolt venture resulting in larger and more robust smolt, we plan to further improve our license utilisation. We also have significant unused license capacity, including unused capacity in Chile and Canada East.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand, revenues generated from our operations and, to a lesser extent, loans and other financing arrangements. Our principal needs for liquidity have been, and will probably continue to be, cost of raw materials, including fish feed, other working capital items and capital expenditures, debt service, and funding of dividend payments and acquisitions. We believe that our liquidity is sufficient to cover our working capital needs in the ordinary course of business.

NIBD totalled EUR 1 867.1 million as of December 31, 2024, compared with EUR 1 790.3 million as of December 31, 2023. Per year-end, NIBD exceeded the long-term target of EUR 1 700 million, and Mowi will revert to a revised NIBD target after closing of the Nova Sea acquisition.

Cash Flow

Cash flow from operations

Cash flow from operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 came to EUR 916.6 million, compared with EUR 992.2 million for 2023. Adjusted for IFRS 16 effects, cash flow from operations was EUR 669.9 million in 2024 vs. EUR 782.1 million in 2023. The decrease was mainly related to lower operational earnings driven by lower prices. Working capital tie-up was lower in 2024 than in 2023 due to lower feed prices and less inflationary pressure. Tax payments increased due to prepayments in Norway of EUR 81 million which will reduce tax payments in 2025 accordingly.

Cash flow from investments

Cash flow from investments for the year ended December 31, 2024 came to EUR -332.1 million, compared with cash flow from investments of EUR -413.6 million in 2023. In both years, net capex was the main contributor, with EUR 290.0 million in 2024 vs. EUR 362.2 million in 2023. The reduction was due to several large projects being completed, including postsmolt facilities in Norway and the new processing facility in Region Mid. Norway.

In addition, acquisition of license capacity in Norway amounted to EUR 64.0 million in 2024 vs. EUR 26.3 million in the residual auction in 2023.

Furthermore, other investments include a net cash inflow of EUR 21.9 million in 2024 related to dividends from associates vs. a net cash outflow of EUR 25.3 million in 2023. The 2023 figure includes the acquisition of assets from the Dawnfresh bankruptcy estate in Scotland related to the postsmolt programme for Mowi Scotland.

Cash flow from financing

Cash flow from financing for the year ended December 31, 2024 came to EUR -598.3 million, compared with EUR -458.2 million for 2023. This includes effects of proceeds from interest-bearing debt and down payments of leasing debt. Cash flow outflows related to dividends decreased from EUR 326.1 million in 2023 to 292.2 million in 2024 on lower earnings, while interest expenses increased from 2023 to 2024.

Mowi ASA profit for the year

The parent company made a profit for the year of EUR 193.9 million, somewhat down from EUR 224.9 million in 2023 mainly related to FX effects. Total net profit of EUR 193.9 million is allocated to other equity.

Operational earnings in 2024 for salmon of Norwegian origin across the value chain and independent of legal entity structure came to EUR 616.5 million, down from EUR 831.5 million in 2023. The decrease mainly relates to lower achieved salmon prices. For more comments related to the Norwegian farming operations, which constitutes the bulk of operational activities in the parent company, please refer to the Operational Performance subsection of the Profit chapter in Part 2 of this report.

Operational result for the Corporate segment part of the parent company, i.e. headquarter activities and the Global R&D & Technical department, amounted to a negative result of EUR 13.9 million in 2024, compared with a negative result of EUR 12.2 million in 2023.

Dividend

Mowi ASA paid a dividend per share of NOK 6.60 in 2024, down from NOK 7.20 in 2023, due to lower Operational EBIT. The decisions to distribute dividends in 2024 are supported by good earnings, a positive market outlook and a strong balance sheet.

Going Concern

The Board confirms that the financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company is a going concern, in accordance with section 3-3a of the Norwegian Accounting Act, and that such an assumption is justified. This confirmation is based on the reported results and the Group's business strategy, financial situation and established budgets.

Risk and Risk Management

We categorise risk based on the COSO enterprise risk framework, which divides risk into four categories:

  • 1. Operational risk
  • 2. Strategic risk
  • 3. Reporting risk
  • 4. Compliance risk

We consider our operational risk to cover several individually important subcategories, and have therefore chosen to divide our operational risks into the following sub-categories:

  • a. Risks related to the sale/supply of our products
  • b. Risks related to government regulations
  • c. Risks related to our fish farming operations
  • d. Risks related to our supply of fish feed and feed operations
  • e. Risks related to our industry
  • f. Risks related to our business
  • g. Risks related to our financial arrangements
  • h. Risks related to tax and legal matters
  • i. Risks related to climate change

j. Risk related to cyber security and technological innovation

All risk categories could, if not properly managed, have material adverse effects on our business operations and financial results. Each risk category includes one or more identified risks factors that individually and/or in combination with others could significantly affect our performance. The group monitor and manges these risks through our continuous risk management process. See Corporate Governance in section 3 for more details on our governance and below for the financial risks.

Risks related to our financial arrangements

Financial risk

The Group monitors and manages the financial risks arising from its operations. These include currency risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and price/liquidity risk.

Currency risk

Several business units carry out a large number of business transactions in currencies other than their domestic currency. For the Group, the relative importance of these transactions is substantially larger on the revenue side than on the cost side. To mitigate potential fluctuation effects on our cash flows, we maintain a foreign exchange strategy designed to manage these exposures both in the short and long term. The Group has defined a hedging strategy for each of Mowi's units.

The Group's predominant currency is EUR, which accounts for more than 50% of net cash flow. Since the establishment of the Group in 2006, Mowi has managed its cash flow in EUR and has used EUR as its main financing currency. Mowi's Group's financial reporting currency is EUR. The functional currency of the parent company Mowi ASA is EUR and all of our Norwegian subsidiaries apply EUR as their functional and reporting currency.

Interest rate risk

Our financing is generally at floating interest rates. Over time, Mowi ASA shall hedge 0%-35% of the Group's long-term interest-bearing debt by currency through fixed-interest or interest-rate derivatives for the first 5 years, and 0% at fixed rates thereafter. Interest-bearing debt includes external interest-bearing debt and leasing in the parent company or subsidiaries. The interest rate hedges shall be based on the targeted currency composition. Interest rate exposure in currencies other than EUR, USD, GBP and NOK shall not be hedged. All interest-rate hedging shall be undertaken by the parent company. At year-end 2024 the Group had a small portfolio of interest swaps with a net market value of EUR -0.7 million increased from EUR -1.0 million in 2023.

Credit risk

We are exposed to the risk of losses if one or more contractual partners fail to meet their obligations. To mitigate this risk the Group trades only with recognised, credit worthy third parties. It is the Group's policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms be subject to credit verification procedures. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis and as a rule the Group's trade receivables are fully credit insured. The Group monitors its exposure to individual customers closely and is not substantially exposed in relation to any individual customer or contractual partner as of December 31, 2024. The maximum exposure is disclosed in Note 17 to the Group financial statements.

The Group enters into derivative transactions only with counterparts with which it has an established business relationship.

Price/liquidity risk

The Group continuously monitors its liquidity, and estimates expected liquidity developments on the basis of budgets and monthly updated forecasts from the units. Mowi's financial position depends heavily on developments in the spot price for salmon, and these prices have historically been volatile. As such we are exposed to movements in supply and demand for salmon. We have to some extent mitigated our exposure to spot prices by entering into bilateral fixed-price/volume contracts with our customers. The contract share has normally varied between 20% and 50% of our sold volume, and the duration of the contracts has typically been three to twelve months. Furthermore, we reduce our exposure to spot price movements through value-added processing activities and the tailoring of products to specific customer requirements. Other key liquidity risks include fluctuations in production and harvested volumes, biological issues, and changes in the feed price, which is the most important individual factor on the cost side. Feed costs are correlated to the commodity prices of the marine and agricultural ingredients.

Leverage and capital access risk

Leverage and capital access i.e. capital management refers to the process of acquiring and utilising capital in the most efficient manner given the available alternatives.

Capital access risk

Feed production, salmon farming and seafood processing are capital-intensive industries. Our future development and growth may depend on access to external capital in the form of debt and/or equity capital. Access to borrowed capital is continuously monitored and we maintain a continuous dialogue with our lenders.

Leverage risk

We have significant indebtedness. Our current debt is on favourable terms including the syndicated loan facility. The syndicated loan facility sets forth an equity ratio as the only financial covenant. The remaining portfolio of interest-bearing debt does not include more restrictive financial covenants. Mowi complied with the covenant in its loan agreements during 2024 and at the close of the year. Details of the Group's main loan programmes are described in Note 11 to the Group financial statements.

For further information about our financing arrangements, capital management and risk management, please see Notes 11 and 13 to the Group financial statements.

Reporting risk

Mowi are subject to the rules of the Oslo Stock Exchange and other Norwegian and European Union financial market regulations.

For further information regarding the Group's internal control procedures, please refer to Corporate Governance in Part 3 of this Integrated Annual Report.

Sustainability

We live in a world that is facing major environmental challenges, including climate change and the depletion of natural resources, but also a world where future food production needs to match global demand. Fish farming can improve the world's standard of living by producing food that is both highly nutritious and of high quality, while at the same time delivering a reduced carbon footprint. Fish farming is one of the most climate-friendly ways of producing protein from animal husbandry. Eating salmon instead of land-based animal proteins would, by itself make a difference to climate change.

Delivering continuous excellence means tackling environmental challenges in a holistic way. In 2024, we continued the implementation of our sustainability strategy, Leading the Blue Revolution Plan. This strategy aims at inspiring, leveraging and guiding our day-to-day actions and decision-making so that we can realise our vision of Leading the Blue Revolution. It includes our targets on key areas including GHG emissions, plastic reduction, eco efficient value chain, freshwater use, waste management, sea lice, fish health and welfare, medicinal use, sourcing of feed raw materials and sustainable certification.

Factors that might influence the environment

From a global perspective, the two most significant challenges related to food production are greenhouse gas emissions and the feed used for animal protein production. We consider these challenges to represent opportunities for the salmon farming industry, as farm-raised salmon utilises significantly less feed than competing animal protein sources, and causes lower emissions of greenhouse gases.

Salmon farming is climate friendly food production

When comparing the carbon footprint of farm-raised salmon with that of traditional meat production, the salmon footprint comes out at 5.1 kg carbon equivalent per kg of edible product, whereas pork and beef produce, respectively, 12.2 kg and 39 kg carbon equivalent per kg of edible product. Farm-raised salmon is also an excellent protein and energy converter compared with alternative meat sources. Producing proteins by farming salmon with sustainable sourced feed is therefore good resource management.

In 2024, we further developed our climate roadmap, aligned with the CSRD Climate Transition Plan. In addition, we have also released our Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) report aligned with IFRS S2.

The use of feed for animal protein production

Continuous access to sustainably managed feed ingredients is a prerequisite for the salmon farming industry. Over the past ten years, we have been able to reduce our dependence on marine raw materials (fish meal and fish oil) in salmon feeds by 50%. This is made possible by a significant substitution of marine raw materials by vegetable sources and the use of high-quality by-products from poultry in Chile and Canada. However, such an improvement brings new challenges, including the use of sustainably sourced vegetable ingredients and a continuous effort to source marine ingredients from responsibly managed fisheries.

We believe the coming years will be key to finding alternative EPA and DHA-rich sources that could further reduce our dependence on fish oil. Our efforts to source sustainable feed ingredients will always go hand-in-hand with the goal of ensuring that our salmon remain a rich source of Omega-3 fatty acids.

Farming in harmony with nature

We are committed to developing our business in a way that safeguards the planet's natural capital, including its biodiversity. Our fish farming operations are done in a way that allow the coexistence of wild populations and salmon farming. Where a potential risk to wild populations exist we take the needed measures to minimise that risk and promote solutions and innovations that lead to a positive effect on biodiversity.

In 2024, we have updated our Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures and our Biodiversity Framework (Farming in Harmony with Nature), taking into account the additional sector guidance specifically for the aquaculture industry. This includes considerations of water stewardship, interactions with wildlife (eg escape incidents and benthic impact), waste management, responsible plastic use including farming equipment and plastic packaging and environmental due diligence of our supply chain.

For further information regarding sustainability, see Mowi's Sustainability Statements.

Research and development

We believe that successful growth of the industry within a sustainable framework is only possible by overcoming biological challenges and controlling sea lice. Research and development (R&D) at Mowi is an engine for sustainable growth, and is integral to our vision of Leading the Blue Revolution. We focus on creating sustainable value and competitive advantage by making improvements and breakthroughs in our Feed and Farming, as well as our Sales & Marketing business areas.

The specialists in our Global R&D and Technical Department work directly with technical staff at our operating units through participation in global technical teams and collaborative projects. This ensures that our work constantly benefits from a culture of shared expertise and knowledge. Through collaboration and the allocation of defined responsibilities, we ensure knowledge sharing and continuous improvement throughout the organisation.

Our commitment to R&D is reflected in our significant R&D spending. R&D costs for the group was EUR 44.9 million for 2024, up from

EUR 35.3 million in 2023. For more information about R&D in Mowi, please see the Research and development section.

People

People and organisation

All employees in Mowi have an impact on the Blue Revolution and are critical to the success of our company.

Human rights

Mowi is committed to responsible business conduct and the respect of human rights in our operation and our supply chain. A detail review of Mowi's human rights programme and due diligence process, can be found at Mowi.com/sustainability.

Concerns received in the Whistleblower channel are reported to the Board of Directors' Audit Committee on a quarterly basis.

Health and safety

Mowi aims to have zero injuries among its staff. Employee safety and a healthy working environment are high on the Board's agenda, and safety will never be compromised for any other business priority. We foster a strong safety culture, in which our employees feel responsible for their own safety as well as the safety of their colleagues. In order to achieve our safety vision of zero injuries, we utilise a global safety programme, BrainSafe. Rolling 12 months Lost Time Incidents (Rolling LTIs) per hours worked is down 80% vs. the level ten years ago, as the group has worked systematically to reduce the number of LTIs over time.

Compared with the industry average, our rate of absenteeism has remained low for several years. The rate was 4.9% in 2024, stable from 2023. The Board continues to aim for an absentee rate below 4%. The Board will continue to emphasise the imperative of improved health and safety performance going forward.

Diversity and equal rights

Mowi is committed to the Norwegian Anti-Discrimination Act and strive to provide equal opportunities. We do not discriminate and we value everyone as an individual. The Group works actively in the area of recruitment including offering apprenticeships to young employees, as well as promotion and development opportunities.

Future prospects

The Board takes pride in the good results achieved in 2024 which demonstrate that we continue to deliver on our strategy centered on volume growth, cost competitiveness and sustainability.

Volume growth across the value chain is one of Mowi's strategic pillars. Growth within Mowi Farming has been impressive in recent years, and 2024 marked another good year with all-time high harvest volumes of 502k GWT, equivalent to growth of 5.7% vs industry supply growth of 1.3%. In 2025 Mowi's guidance is increased to 530k tonnes from 520k tonnes which represents another year with solid growth equivalent to 5.7%. The volume guidance is supported by record-high biomass in sea with 10% growth year-on-year. As recently as 2018 harvest volumes were

375k GWT, hence we will have grown our farming volumes by 155k GWT in the period to 2025E, equivalent to a CAGR of 5.1% versus a projected CAGR for the industry of 2.8%. This is mainly organic growth, and Mowi still has further organic growth initiatives that are expected to contribute to additional volume growth.

On 30 January 2025 Mowi announced it was increasing its ownership in Nova Sea from 49% to 95% by entering into an agreement with Nova Sea's main shareholder to acquire its controlling stake. Nova Sea is a leading salmon farmer in production area 8 in Northern Norway and covers the entire value chain from broodstock and smolt production to harvesting and sales. The company expects to harvest 52k GWT of salmon in 2025. Mowi has been a large minority owner in Nova Sea since 1995 and knows the company well. Nova Sea is a frontrunner in the Norwegian aquaculture industry and is known for its excellent biological performance and industry-leading margins. Over 50 years, the company and the Olaisen family have invested in the organisation and developed it into an impressive, fully integrated operation. It is therefore with great pleasure that we are now, after 30 years, combining our operations.

At Mowi's Capital Markets Day in September 2024 it was announced that the company's targeted harvest volume for 2029 was 600k GWT. Provided that the above transaction is completed, Mowi is now expected to reach 600k GWT in harvest volumes by 2026 and 650k GWT by 2029, all else equal. Also, by including Nova Sea in Mowi Farming Norway's volumes, Mowi's volume target for Norway alone increases to 377k GWT in 2026 (from 315k GWT in 2025 standalone) and to more than 400k GWT in 2029.

On cost, Mowi is still the best or second best in all the regions where we farm salmon, and we are also ahead in our downstream operations. We expect continued positive developments in feed raw material prices, and with lower cost at stock per year-end 2024 vs. the year before, realised full cost is expected to be reduced in 2025 vs. 2024. Cost competitiveness is one of Mowi's strategic priorities, hence a new target of EUR 30 million of savings has been set for 2025 which comes in addition to targeted savings in the areas of postsmolt, Mowi 4.0, productivity and efficiency. Mowi has identified a total cost reduction potential of EUR 300-400 million in the next five years. With regards to productivity, the target in 2025 is to reduce FTEs by a further 300 through the productivity programme.

Consumer Products had an impressive 2024, yet again setting operational and financial records on good consumer demand. Annual operational EBIT of EUR 146 million, equivalent to ROCE of 19.0%, and record-high volumes of 247,000 tonnes product weight are stellar results. Our Smart Factories concept initiated by our global Mowi Processing Excellence Team has driven the introduction of more modern technologies and automation across our factories to reduce cost and increase value. Mowi also continues to develop new, innovative, high-quality products that are easily accessible to our customers, to keep pace with constantly evolving food habits. Our branded MOWI products have supported these developments by growing consumer awareness and loyalty to our products. MOWI is now a trusted name in 16 countries across Europe, the US and Asia and Mowi will continue its branding strategy unabated in 2025.

Feed can celebrate its best year so far with an Operational EBITDA of EUR 62 million. Sold volumes reached a new record high of 585k tonnes for the full year, up 12% year-on-year, following strong growth in sea and consequently good feed demand. To meet growing feed demand we have decided to expand our Norwegian feed plant with a new production line of 60k tonnes. In March 2025, Mowi initiated a strategic review of the Feed division. The review will assess all available options, including a sale.

In 2025 Mowi will continue to invest across its value chain to support further organic growth and strengthen the asset base. The capital expenditure budget for 2025 is approximately EUR 310 million, up from EUR 290 million in 2024, and the majority of investments will be allocated to the Farming segment. Three large postsmolt investments in Norway have already been completed, and in 2025 we will invest further into closed containment systems. Selected seawater expansions across our farming footprint will also be undertaken in addition to finalising the new broodstock facility in Scotland. Furthermore, Consumer Products expects to undertake several automation and packaging technology projects in Europe, US and in Asia. Investments of a new production line in the Norwegian feed plant will also be initiated.

The third and final pillar of Mowi's strategy is sustainability including fish welfare, and the Board is proud of the many sustainability awards the company has recognised over the years. In the fourth quarter, Mowi won the top spot yet again in the Coller FAIRR ranking as Mowi was ranked number one for the sixth consecutive year by the Coller FAIRR Protein Producer Index. The Coller FAIRR Protein Producer Index is the world's most detailed assessment of meat, dairy and farmed fish producers on material environmental, social and governance risks.

With effect from 2 April 2025, 25% tariffs have been imposed on goods imported from Canada to the USA. The situation is fluid and it is difficult to see how this will play out, including other countries. Mowi will continuously monitor any developments related to this subject and will be prepared to redistribute our volumes from our seven origins with respect to prevailing trade policies at any given time to best serve our customers.

We believe in a positive market outlook for the company. Supply growth has been limited in recent years and we do not expect significant volume growth for the industry in the next five years. We expect global megatrends to continue to fuel demand for salmon despite short-term headwinds from the generally increased cost of living, particularly in the US.

1. Implementation and Reporting of Corporate Governance Principles

The Board of Directors of Mowi (the "Board") is aware of its responsibility for the development and implementation of internal procedures and regulations to ensure that the Company and its subsidiaries (together, the "Group") complies with applicable principles for good corporate governance. The Board reviews the overall position of the Group in relation to such principles annually, and reports thereon in the Company's annual report in accordance with the requirements for listed companies and the Norwegian Code. The Board has defined the Group's overall vision as "Leading the Blue Revolution". Closely linked to the vision are the Group's global values "Passion", "Change", "Trust" and "Share".

  • Passion for the company and the product: passion is the key to our success and how we make a difference.
  • Change is the new "normal": we are ready for change and work continuously to improve our operations.
  • Trust is essential in everything we do: our operations provide safe, delicious and healthy food, and we deliver on our promises.
  • Share is the foundation for the performance of our employees: We share knowledge and experience, we are open and transparent, and we cooperate with key stakeholders globally.

Mowi's leadership principles were put in place to strengthen the link between individual management actions and our vision. Our leadership principles are:

  • Inspire people: we recruit the very best and build talent for the future. We strive to create winning teams and challenge people to succeed.
  • Make it happen: we challenge existing thinking and promote change and innovation. We encourage people to propose solutions and learn from mistakes.
  • Live the values: we want our leaders to be role models and build our culture; leaders should show direction and engage with stakeholders.
  • Think and act: we want our leaders to think and act as if the company was their own. Leaders should do what is best for the company, bearing in mind short and long-term goals.

The Group is made up of individuals with different backgrounds, nationalities, cultures and customs. Their conduct - what each and every employee does and says each day - determines the Group's ability to succeed as an organisation. The Code of Conduct sets standards for behaviour that can be expected between colleagues, and that external parties can expect from employees of the Group. The Code of Conduct was updated in 2021. It has been communicated to employees, and it is expected that all employees make a personal commitment to abide by the Code of Conduct. Testing of each employee's understanding has been, and will continue to be, carried out regularly. The most recent test was performed in 2024. The Code of Conduct is available at Mowi.com.

Our four guiding principles underpin our vision and guide our behaviour in a balanced way. Growth must be sustainable from an environmental, social and financial perspective. We need good financial results to drive the sustainable development of our operations. This interdependency is the foundation for our four important guiding principles: "Profit", "Planet", "Product" and "People".

  • Profit: our profits hinge on our ability to provide customer value from healthy, tasty and nutritious seafood that is raised cost-effectively and in an environmentally sustainable way that maintains the aquatic environment and respects the needs of the wider society.
  • Planet: our operations and long-term profitability ultimately depend on sustainable and environmentally responsible interactions with the natural environment. We rely on qualified personnel to maintain fish health, avoid escapes and minimise the environmental impact of our operations.
  • Product: we aim to continually deliver healthy, tasty and responsibly-produced seafood to our customers to deliver longterm financial profitability.

People: the safety, self-respect and personal pride of our employees cannot be compromised if Mowi is to succeed as a company and maintain good relationships with local communities.

Mowi has defined specific ambitions for each principle, with corresponding key performance indicators. Defining targets is an integrated part of the budget and long-term planning processes, and achievements are reported in operational review meetings with the business units, and in business review meetings with the three Business Areas; Feed, Farming and Sales & Marketing. Development and implementation of best practice is achieved through the global quality system, ONE Mowi, which contains our standard operating procedures. In addition, a global set of policies has been drawn up to guide decisions, manage risk and achieve results. Mowi's governance and management structure is further described on the website at Mowi.com.

2. Business

Mowi's objective is defined in the company's articles of association: "The objective of the company is production, refinement, sale and distribution of seafood and goods used in seafood production, either directly or through participation in other companies and hereto-related activities."

The articles of association are available from the Group's website at Mowi.com. To achieve the objective set forth in the articles of association, the Board has adopted a corporate strategy whose ambitions and priorities lie within the framework of the Group's vision and four guiding principles. The vision "Leading the Blue Revolution" provides direction and shows possibilities. The Group's overall ambition is to achieve profitable growth organically as well as through acquisitions.

In Feed, Mowi will continue to work on producing high-performing feed and optimising feed ingredients while maintaining our focus on operational efficiency, sustainability and high quality. In Farming we work along three strategic pillars: volume growth, cost and sustainability, and the aim is to continue to deliver on all three pillars. Our ambition within Consumer Products is to become a seafood category leader with strong focus on quality, innovation, brand building and excellent customer service. We continue our work to improve efficiency in this segment by streamlining and using new technology.

The material aspects of the four guiding principles are systematically assessed at regular intervals by the Group Management Team. The process of defining material aspects is discussed in the section "Leading the Blue Revolution". The ambitions and the priorities set to achieve them are regularly reviewed and revised by the Board. Through its annual discussion of the long-term plan, the Board sets the targets for the Group for the following five years. Many of the targets are discussed in the relevant sections of this Integrated Annual Report.

3. Equity and Dividends

The shareholders' equity as of December 31, 2024 was EUR 3 839.2 million (3 593.3 million), which represents 46.8% (45.6%) of the Group's total assets. Mowi ASA's objective is to maintain an equity level that is appropriate for the company's strategy and risk profile.

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. Dividend has been an important component of Mowi's financial strategy and to make dividend payments more predictable and transparent the Board decided in 2020 to operationalise the dividend policy by introducing ordinary and extraordinary dividends. The dividend policy states:

  • Quarterly ordinary dividends 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 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 buy-back as a complementary supplement on an ad hoc basis.

To facilitate quarterly distribution of dividends in an efficient and cost effective manner, the Board seeks a general authorisation from the General Meeting to distribute dividends. Such authorisations shall, however, be limited to a maximum aggregate amount, and limited in time to the next Annual General Meeting ("AGM"). At the 2024 AGM, the Board was granted the following authorisations:

  • (1) To approve the distribution of dividends based on the Company's annual accounts for 2023. The authorisation may be used to approve the distribution of dividends up to an aggregate amount of NOK 7 500 000 000. The authorisation is valid for dividends from the date of the AGM in 2024 until the AGM in 2025, however no later than June 30, 2025.
  • (2) To purchase up to 51 711 109 shares in the Company (representing 10% of the shares in issue at the time) during the period up until the AGM in 2025, however no later than June 30, 2025.
  • (3a) To increase the Company's share capital by up to 51 711 109 shares (representing 10% of the shares in issue at the time) provided that the the combined number of shares that are issued pursuant to this authorisation and the authorisation in item 3b below shall not in aggregate exceed 10% of the Company's current share capital. The authority did not define the purpose(s) of such a capital increase. The authority expires at the AGM in 2025, however no later than June 30, 2025.
  • (3b) To take up convertible bond loans of up to NOK 3,200 million (par value), convertible to a share capital equivalent by up to 51 711 109 shares provided that the the combined number of shares that are issued pursuant to this authorisation and the authorisation in item 3a above shall not in aggregate exceed 10% of the Company's current share capital. The authority expires at the AGM in 2025, however no later than June 30, 2025.

4. Equal Treatment of Shareholders and Transactions with Related Parties

Mowi ASA has one class of shares.

Any purchase or sale by the Company of its own shares will be carried out either through the Oslo Stock Exchange or at prices quoted on the Oslo Stock Exchange.

Mowi also has American Depositary Shares (ADSs) represented by American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), traded in the US over-thecounter.

Any transaction between the Company and a related party will be on arm's length terms or, if relevant, will rest on a valuation obtained from an independent third party. Mowi ASA will make sure that major transactions with related parties are approved by the AGM in accordance with the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act.

The Board is currently authorised to set aside the pre-emption rights of existing shareholders in capital increases if it exercises its authority to issue new shares, cf. above. This is to simplify the procedure in connection with capital increases to finance further growth and/or the offering of shares as consideration in acquisitions where this is deemed a favourable form of settlement. Members of the Board and the Global Management Team have an obligation, pursuant to the Company's Code of Conduct, to disclose to the Board any material interest in transactions to which the Group is a party. The Code of Conduct is available at Mowi.com.

5. Freely Negotiable Shares

All shares in the Company have equal rights and may be traded freely. Mowi also has American Depositary Shares (ADSs) represented by American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), traded in the US over-the-counter.

6. General Meetings

The interests of the company's shareholders are primarily exercised at the company's general meetings. It is the company's goal that as many shareholders as possible are given the opportunity to participate in its general meetings and that the general meetings are organised so as to ensure that they represent an effective forum for the company's shareholders to express their views.

Notices of general meetings are made available on the company's website, Mowi.com, and through a separate notice to the Oslo Stock Exchange at least 21 days in advance of the general meeting.

All shareholders with a known address are notified of general meetings a minimum of two weeks in advance. The notice contains detailed information on the resolutions proposed and matters to be considered at the general meeting. It includes the deadline for shareholders to register their intention to attend the general meeting, as well as instructions on how they can cast their votes by proxy. The deadline for registration is set as close to the date of the general meeting as possible.

When documents concerning matters that are to be dealt with at a general meeting have been made accessible to the shareholders on the company's website, the requirement stipulated by the Norwegian Public Companies Act that the documents shall be sent to shareholders by ordinary mail does not apply. This also applies to documents which, according to law, shall be included in or enclosed with the notice of a general meeting. A shareholder can, however, demand that documents concerning matters that are to be dealt with at a general meeting be sent to him or her by ordinary mail.

The notice of a general meeting shall contain a reference to the company's website, where shareholders can access relevant documents and, if appropriate, any other information that shareholders may need to gain access to such documents. The Chair of the Board, the CEO and the external auditor shall all be present at the AGM. Mowi does not have a policy that requires the other members of the Board to attend the AGM.

The AGM elects a chair to preside over the meeting and one person to sign the minutes of the meeting together with the elected chair. The minutes are published on the company's website.

The AGM approves the annual financial statements and annual report, the Board of Directors' report and any proposed dividend. The AGM also approves the remuneration to be paid to the members of the Board, the Nomination Committee (as defined below) and the external auditor.

Other items on the agenda for the AGM may include authorisation for the Board to acquire the Company's shares and to increase the company's share capital, to take up loans convertible into shares, and the election of the members of the Board and the Nomination Committee (please refer to section 3 Equity and Dividends).

Pursuant to Section 6-16a of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act, the Board has implemented guidelines for the determination of the remuneration payable to the company's CEO and other senior executives. These guidelines are tabled for resolution at the AGM.

All shares carry an equal right to vote at general meetings. Resolutions at AGMs are normally passed by simple majority unless otherwise required by Norwegian law.

The Annual General Meeting was held on May 30, 2024.

7. Nomination Committee

The AGM elects the company's nomination committee (the "Nomination Committee"). The Nomination Committee consists of three members; Anne Lise E. Gryte (Chair), Ann Kristin Brautaset and Peder Weidemann Egseth. All members of the committee are independent of the Board and the company's executive management. In addition, Mrs Gryte and Mr Egseth are independent of the company's largest shareholders. The Nomination Committee submits its recommendations to the AGM regarding the election of members to the Board and the Nomination Committee and their respective remuneration.

The general meeting has approved a set of instructions defining the responsibilities of the Nomination Committee. These instructions are available at Mowi.com. All shareholders are invited to propose candidates to the Board and the Nomination Committee through the company's website.

8. Corporate Assembly and Board of Directors: Composition and Independence

The company does not have a corporate assembly.

According to the company's articles of association, the company shall have a Board consisting of a minimum of six and a maximum of 12 members. The Chair of the Board and the Deputy Chair of the Board are both elected by the general meeting based on a proposal from the Nomination Committee, as are the other members representing the shareholders. Board members are elected for a period of one or two years at a time. In order to ensure continuity, not all seats on the Board come up for election in the same year.

At present, the Board consists of ten members, of which seven are elected by the general meeting and three are representatives of the employees in Norway. All shareholder elected Board members are considered independent of the company's executive management and material business partners. Four out of seven shareholder elected Board members, including the Chair of the Audit Committee, are considered independent of the Company's

largest shareholders; Kristian Melhuus, Lisbet K. Nærø (Chair of Audit Committee), Kjersti Hobøl and Leif Teksum. No Mowi executives are members of the Board.

The members of the Board are presented in this Integrated Annual Report. The shareholdings of Board members are listed in Note 24. The Board is of the opinion that it has sufficient expertise and capacity to perform its duties in a satisfactory manner.

9. The Work of the Board of Directors

According to the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act, the Board has overall responsibility to oversee the management of the company, while the CEO is responsible for day-to-day management. The Board is responsible for ensuring that the Group's activities are soundly organised, and for approving all plans and budgets for the activities of the Group. The Board approves a statement of the CEO's duties, responsibilities and authorisations.

The Board keeps itself informed about the Group's activities and financial situation, and is under an obligation to ensure that its activities, financial statements, sustainability reporting and asset management are subject to adequate control through the review and approval of the Group's monthly and quarterly reports and financial statements. The Board shall also ensure that the Group has satisfactory internal control systems.

The CEO is in charge of the day-to-day management of the Group, and is responsible for ensuring that the Group is organised in accordance with applicable laws, the company's articles of association and the decisions adopted by the Board and the company's general meeting. The CEO has particular responsibility for ensuring that the Board receives accurate, relevant and timely

The responsibility of the Audit Committee is to monitor the company's financial reporting process and the effectiveness of its systems for internal control and risk management. The Audit Committee shall also keep in regular contact with the company's auditor regarding the auditing of the annual accounts and sustainability reporting and shall evaluate and oversee the auditor's independence. The Audit Committee reviews ethical and compliance issues. The members of the Audit Committee are deemed to be independent of the company's major shareholders and the company's management. The Audit Committee reports to the Board. The Audit Committee conducted six meetings during 2024, with 100% attendance rate from both members.

The Audit Committee has formally assessed its performance and expertise in 2024 as part of the Board's assessment.

10. Risk Management and Internal Control

The Board and management attach great importance to the quality of the Group's risk management and internal control systems, including ESG risks. Risk management and internal control systems are important to enable the Group to meet its strategic goals. These systems form an integrated part of management's decisionmaking processes and are central elements in the organisation of the Group and the development of routines.

By means of a materiality assessment we have identified areas of opportunity and risk that could influence our ability to achieve our goals and deliver on our strategy.

Risk management is what the company does to manage risk in order to provide reasonable assurance to stakeholders that it will achieve its goals. The COSO enterprise risk framework, dividing risk into four categories is applied:

  • 1. Operational risk
  • 2. Strategic risk
  • 3. Reporting risk
  • 4. Compliance risk

As the company considers its operational risk to cover several individually important sub categories of risk, a more detailed risk categorisation has been chosen. The operational risk category therefore includes the following sub categories:

information in order to enable it to carry out its duties. The CEO shall also ensure that the Group's financial statements comply with Norwegian legislation and regulations and that the assets of the company are soundly managed. The CEO is also responsible for the Sustainability reporting.

The Board has formally assessed its performance and expertise in 2024 as recommended by the Norwegian Code. The assessment focuses on the Board's effectiveness to continuously improve governance and support the company's performance. Furthermore, it evaluates several areas of work including, but not limited to, the work of the Board, its composition, work climate and the Board's competence. External resources are brought in at regular intervals to evaluate the work of the Board. Regardless of whether it is conducted internally or externally, the evaluation forms a foundation for the company's Nomination Committee's work related to the nomination of Board members. In 2024, the evaluation was conducted as a self-assessment and discussion with each of the Board members separately. The results were reported to the Board and communicated to the Nomination Committee.

The Board held 12 meetings during 2024. The overall attendance rate was 96%.

In 2024 the Board continued to spend significant time on the strategic positioning of Mowi throughout the value chain.

The Board has chosen not to appoint a remuneration committee. Matters relating to the remuneration of executive personnel are discussed by the Board without presence of the CEO or other management representatives.

The Board has one subcommittee: The Audit Committee.

  • a. Risks related to the sale/supply of our products
  • b. Risks related to governmental regulations
  • c. Risks related to our fish farming operations
  • d. Risks related to our supply of fish feed and feed operations
  • e. Risks related to our industry
  • f. Risks related to our business
  • g. Risks related to our financial arrangements
  • h. Risks related to tax and legal matters
  • i. Risks related to climate change
  • j. Risk related to cyber security and technological innovation

The company believes that this risk categorisation addresses the main risk areas that could influence the ability to deliver on the strategy. The company works continuously to mitigate identified risks and capitalise on opportunities by tracking and following up key performance indicators within the framework of the guiding principles. The company believes that the long-term success depends on its ability to manage the risks associated with its operations, strategy, reporting and compliance.

For more detailed descriptions of the risks associated with the company's operations, please see the sections Profit, Planet, Product and People. For a more detailed description of the risks related to the financing arrangements, please refer to the Board of Directors report and Note 13 to the Group financial statements.

A continuous risk management process, including analysis, management and follow-up of significant risks, is performed to ensure that the Group is managed in accordance with the risk profile and strategies approved by the Board. This process encompasses the Group's guiding principles and ethical guidelines. The Board reviews the Group's overall risk profile in relation to strategic, operational and transaction-related issues at least once every year. The status of the overall risk situation is reported and discussed with the Board in connection with the annual budget process. The Audit Committee assists the Board and functions as a preparatory body with regards to surveillance of the company's systems for internal control and risk management.

As part of the company's risk management policy, Mowi ASA has entered into Property and Casualty Insurance for the company including all subsidiaries. Included in this insurance programme is Directors & Officers Liability Insurance coverage which specifies its own global coverage with a corresponding master policy. All Directors and Officers in Mowi are part of this insurance coverage which has a total limit of NOK 350 million.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Board and Group management are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The process for internal control is developed under the supervision of the Chief Financial Officer. The process is intended to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting

and the preparation of the Group's Financial Statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and the interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) as adopted by the European Union (EU IFRS) and the Norwegian Accounting Act.

The Audit Committee monitors financial reporting and its related internal controls, including application of accounting principles and informed judgements. Group management and the Audit Committee have regular meetings with the external auditor present to discuss issues related to financial reporting.

Financial reporting in Mowi is an integrated part of the Group's corporate governance. Distinct roles, responsibilities and duties have been established. Requirements with regard to content and deadlines, including accounting policies, checks and validations, have been clearly defined. A key element in the financial reporting process is risk assessment. A risk assessment is performed at least annually, and key controls and control procedures are established to mitigate identified risks. Compliance is reported to the Audit Committee. The Group's applied accounting principles are described in an online accounting manual.

All business units periodically upload their financial statements into a common consolidation system, based on a common chart of accounts. All subsidiaries are responsible for the accuracy of their reported figures, and for ensuring that their financial reporting is in compliance with the Group's accounting principles. In addition, general and analytical controls of the reported figures are performed at corporate level.

Additional information is disclosed in connection with quarterly and annual reporting. Extended controls are carried out as part of the quarterly and the year-end reporting processes.

The Group has sufficient expertise to complete proper and efficient financial reporting in accordance with IFRS and the Norwegian Accounting Act.

Internal Control over IT Security

The Board and Group Management Team are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over IT Security. The process for internal control is developed under the supervision of the Chief Financial Officer and the Group IT Director.

Oversight of the company's information security risk management is assigned to the Board, and followed up by the Audit Committee.

Mowi has a global IT Security Team that spans all areas of IT. This team is led by the Group Infrastructure & Operations Manager. The Group Infrastructure & Operations Manager has frequent and regular discussions with the Group IT Director on security issues. The Group IT Director in turn updates the CFO on a weekly basis. The Group Management Team and the Board are also updated regularly.

Mowi has three Board members with information security experience; Mr Melhuus, Mr Strand and Mrs Nærø. The CFO has a degree in Information Technology.

Mowi has a group security team, with internal and external security experts tasked with the assignment to protect Mowi from cyber threats and attacks. Cyber monitoring takes place 24/7 and action is taken constantly to mitigate risks, handle threats, and remediate issues, as needed. The approach is not disclosed to any external company.

Over the last three years Mowi has not experienced a security breach. Mowi incurred the most recent information security breach 6 years and 7 months ago. As a result no costs have been incurred, other than the costs of ongoing security improvements.

An annual external audit is conducted on IT processes. The audit is performed according to top information security standards, with full scope. Additionally, Mowi uses a 3rd party certified security vendor to analyse the IT environment to highlight potential threats and weaknesses. Mowi is using well known and established and certified partners to run the global infrastructure on Mowi's behalf. Certifications and third party attestations and quality review are important tool for Mowi to mitigate risk.

The external IT audit covers the Mowi Group.

Mowi has an extensive information security training programme and the programme is robust. All employees logging on to Mowi networks and applications must complete mandatory security and awareness training on a monthly basis.

Code of Conduct and Ethical Guidelines

The Code of Conduct describes Mowi ASA's commitment and requirements in connection with ethical issues relevant to business practice and personal conduct. Mowi ASA will, in its business activities, comply with applicable laws and regulations, and act in an ethical, sustainable and socially responsible manner. The Code of Conduct has been communicated to employees, and each employee is expected to make a personal commitment to abide by the Code of Conduct. The third-party-operated whistleblower channel facilitates the reporting of concerns about potential violations of the law and breaches of Mowi's Code of Conduct in all areas. On whistleblowing, 46 (21) cases were reported through our whistleblower channel in 2024. All cases are closed, but one notice from 2018 is kept open, where we are still in legal process. None of the reported cases are related to corruption.

Mowi has also established a group-wide policy to combat fraud and corruption as part of its risk management, internal control and corporate governance process.

11. Remuneration of the Board of Directors

Remuneration for the members of the Board is determined by the AGM based on a proposal from the Nomination Committee. The remuneration reflects the Board's responsibility, expertise, time, commitment and the complexity of the Company's activities. Remuneration is not linked to the Company's performance. All members of the Board, with the exception of the Chair and the Deputy Chair receive the same remuneration. The members of the Audit Committee receive separate, additional remuneration. The fee paid to the members of the Board is fixed for each 12-month period (from AGM to AGM). The remuneration paid to members of the Board is disclosed in the Remuneration Report according to Allmennaksjeloven (The Public Limited Liability Companies Act) § 6-16 b.

12. Remuneration of Executive Management

The Board of Mowi ASA determines the principles applicable to the Group's policy for compensation of senior executives. The Board is directly responsible for determining the CEO's salary and other benefits. The CEO is, in consultation with the Chair of the Board, responsible for determining the salary and other benefits for the Group's other senior executives. The Group's senior executives include the management team of each Business Area as well as the senior members of the corporate staff.

The following guidelines underpin the determination of compensation payable to the Group's senior executives:

  • The total compensation offered to senior executives shall be competitive, both nationally and internationally.
  • The compensation shall contain elements providing necessary financial security following termination of the employment relationship, both before and after retirement.
  • The compensation shall be motivating, both for the individual and for the senior executives as a group.
  • Variable elements in the overall compensation package shall be linked to the value generated by the Group for Mowi ASA's shareholders.
  • The system of compensation shall be understandable and meet general acceptance internally in the Group, among the company's shareholders and with the public.
  • The system of compensation shall be flexible and contain mechanisms that make it possible to carry out individual adjustments based on the results achieved and contributions made towards the development of the Group.

Remuneration of the company's CEO and the executive management team is disclosed in the Remuneration Report according to Allmennaksjeloven (The Public Limited Liability Companies Act) § 6-16 b.

In compliance with the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act, the Board prepares a statement regarding the remuneration of the executive management team for consideration by the AGM. The remuneration package for corporate executive staff consists of the following main elements:

  • Fixed salary
  • Benefits-in-kind
  • Pension
  • Termination payment
  • Bonus

In addition, the Group has a Share Option Scheme ("Scheme") for key employees. The Scheme is limited to two years' salary for each individual. The details of the Scheme are described in Note 14 to the Mowi Group Financial Statements, and in Note 4 to the Mowi ASA financial statements.

13. Information and communications

The company publishes its financial calendar every year, identifying the dates on which it will present its quarterly reports, Integrated Annual Report and when the AGM will be held.

All information concerning major events and acquisitions is publicly disclosed in line with the requirements of the Oslo Stock Exchange, and posted on the Company's website (Mowi.com). All financial reports and other information are prepared and disclosed in such a way as to ensure that shareholders, investors and others receive correct, clear, relevant and up-to-date information equally and in a timely manner.

The Company holds public presentations of its results quarterly.

The Board has formalised guidelines for dialogue with the company's shareholders outside the AGM. Mowi ASA is entitled by the Norwegian Securities Trading Act to publish all information (including its annual financial statements) in English only.

14. Takeovers

The Board will not seek to hinder or obstruct any public bid for the company's activities or shares unless there are particular reasons for doing so. In the event of a takeover bid for the company's shares, the Board will not exercise mandates or pass any resolutions with the intention of obstructing the takeover bid, unless this is approved by the company's general meeting following the announcement of such a bid.

The Board acknowledges that it has a particular responsibility to ensure that the company's shareholders are given sufficient information and time to form a view of any public offer for the company's shares. If an offer is made for a significant and controlling stake of the shares, the Board will issue a statement evaluating the offer and will make a recommendation as to whether or not shareholders should accept it.

The Board has not established explicit guiding principles for dealing with takeover bids as recommended by the Norwegian code.

15. Audit and Risk Oversight

The company's elected external auditor is EY. The auditor is independent of Mowi ASA and is appointed by the AGM. The auditor's fee is approved by the AGM.

The auditor presents a plan to the Audit Committee for the audit, and is present at Board meetings dealing with the preparation of the annual accounts where the audited financial statements are

reviewed and approved. The auditor participates in the AGM. The Board and the Audit Committee hold regular meetings with the auditor without the presence of management. The auditor is also present at all meetings with the Audit Committee. The minutes from these meetings are distributed to all Board members. This practice is in line with the EU audit directive.

The auditor submits a summary document to the Audit Committee and the Board following its audit of the Group's and the company's annual financial statement and sustainability reporting. The summary document, in addition to describing the audit review, includes an evaluation of the Group's internal control systems. The auditor has not issued an adverse opinion in the past year. Lisbet K. Nærø (Chair) serve as the financial expert in the audit committee.

The new Public Audit Act became effective as of January 1, 2021. Extended tasks related to the selection, evaluation of independence and follow-up of the external auditor as well as purchase of auditor services are handled by the audit committee. The Audit Committee has sufficient competence to challenge the statutory auditor in relevant areas. When evaluating the independent auditor, emphasis is placed on the firm's competence, capacity, local and international availability and the level of the fee expected.

Information about the fee paid to the auditor is stated in Note 32 to the Group financial statements. The independent auditor's remuneration is split between audit services, tax services and other non-audit fees. To the extent that the auditor provides services other than the regular audit, this is discussed separately on a case-bycase basis, to ensure that there are no conflicts of interest. The non-audit fee represents 38% (37%) of total fees in 2024.

As a global leader in seafood production, Mowi is at the forefront of sustainable aquaculture, championing the "Blue Revolution" to meet the growing global demand for healthy, nutritious food from the ocean. Mowi's sustainability strategy is deeply rooted in its guiding principles of Planet and People, aligning with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Our comprehensive sustainability strategy includes reducing greenhouse gas emissions in line with the Paris agreement, promoting sustainable feed, ensuring sustainable use of freshwater resources, safeguarding animal welfare and farming in harmony with nature, protecting ecosystems, and maintaining biodiversity.

Mowi's commitment to sustainability is not just about environmental stewardship but also about creating longterm social and economic value. We nurture a sustainable supply chain while supporting the well-being of our own employees. Our efforts are crucial in producing safe, highquality seafood while minimising environmental impact, thus playing a vital role in addressing global food security challenges such as malnutrition and climate change.

Sustainability statements

Mowi's CSRD material topics emphasise sustainable practices throughout our operations and supply chain. We have created a double materiality assessment tool to pinpoint the most critical topics, considering both impact and financial significance. Our sustainability statements cover Mowi's general disclosures and specific disclosures on key environmental (E1, E3, E4), social (S1, S2), and governance (G1) topics, including Animal Welfare.

General basis for the sustainability statement

Mowi has implemented the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the underlying European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). Mowi has a long history of sustainability reporting and the implementation of the new directive will further strengthen our sustainability reporting. In 2024, we have updated our double materiality assessment and restructured the sustainability statements to adapt to the new requirements in ESRS. A summary of Mowi's assessment of material impacts, risks and opportunities (IRO) is included in the BP-1 General basis for preparation section.

The 2024 sustainability statement of Mowi reflects our commitment to sustainability and provides an overview of our sustainability initiatives and their impacts. We focus on transparency and accountability in our operations and along our value chain.

Sustainability is integral to how we operate as a business. Throughout everything we do, we are guided by how and where we can create the most value for both society and our business. This is further reflected in our Sustainability Strategy, Leading the Blue Revolution Plan and our publicly available policies.

The new EU Directive, the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), is a way to harmonise sustainability reporting. Our sustainability reporting is aligned with the CSRD disclosures on Mowi's material topics, risks and opportunities in relation to environmental, social, and governance sustainability matters. The European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) form the basis of our disclosure after our material impacts, risks and opportunities have been identified.

Our expectation is that users of the sustainability statement are able to understand Mowi's material impacts on both people and environment and the material effects of sustainability matters on our development, performance and position. For all material topics, Mowi has included this in our governance and strategy documents and considered impacts, risks and opportunities and updated relevant metrics and targets.

General

Basis and consolidation of sustainability statement

The sustainability statement for the year 2024 has been prepared on a Group consolidated basis, including all the subsidiaries and operations under the Mowi umbrella. This approach allows for an overview of our sustainability performance, our sustainability strategy and our corporate objective. The sustainability statement has been prepared on a consolidated basis with the scope of consolidation being the same as for the financial statements. The sustainability statement presents Mowi's governance and performance related to material sustainability topics, including detailed performance indicators.

Value chain

The sustainability statement covers Mowi's upstream and downstream value chain when material. This is in particular relevant to Mowi's scope 3 emissions which include upstream and downstream emissions. It also applies to our due diligence process in our supply chain where both up- and downstream suppliers are included in both environmental and social due diligence. On the upstream front, we have engaged with our suppliers and partners to further develop sustainable practices in raw material sourcing and production processes. In terms of the downstream value chain, our main focus has has been on logistics of our products to markets, providing a transparent view of sustainability matters in that regard.

Mowi has a system to estimate and monitor value chain data. Our identified metrics encompass areas such as carbon footprint and due diligence, which are important in assessing our environmental and social impact. The preparation basis for these metrics involves utilising primary data from suppliers and country indices to estimate upstream and downstream impacts accurately. We continue to work on improving accuracy, including through closer collaboration with our suppliers to obtain precise data.

Roles and responsibilities

The Board of Directors is the highest governance body for sustainability and ultimately approves the strategic directions and targets. The Board holds the overarching responsibility for overseeing the impacts, risks and opportunities associated with our operations. They are instrumental in setting targets and monitoring the progress of our sustainability initiatives. The Board and The Group Management Team, together with the Audit Committee, develop, approve and update Mowi's vision, values, guiding principles, leadership principles, materiality analysis, strategies, policies and targets related to sustainable development.

The responsibility of the Audit Committee is to monitor the company's financial and sustainability reporting processes and the effectiveness of its systems for internal control and risk management. The Audit Committee also has regular contact with our auditor regarding the auditing of the annual accounts and sustainability reporting and evaluates and oversee the auditor's independence. The Audit Committee also reviews ethical and compliance issues.

Supporting the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee is the Sustainability Committee, tasked with developing and implementing sustainability strategies. The Sustainability Committee consists of members of Mowi's Group Management Team and internal representatives of areas such as investor relations, communication, procurement and branding. The Sustainability Committee monitors and manages the impacts, risks, and opportunities associated with our business operations. Part of this committee is our CFO, who works closely with the Chief Sustainability Officer, who leads our sustainability initiatives, and reports to the Board and the Audit Committee on sustainability matters.

The Chief Sustainability Officer reports regularly to the Board on progress and developments in our sustainability initiatives. Dedicated controls and procedures are in place for managing impacts, risks, and opportunities, integrated with other internal functions. These include our yearly budget process, our long-term plan which is updated every year, and our sustainability committee meetings. All of the above include considerations of material impacts, risks and opportunities (IRO) in Mowi's own operations and supply chain.

Furthermore, the Board of Directors and Group Management Team oversee the setting of targets related to material impacts, risks, and opportunities, monitoring the progress towards these targets on a quarterly basis, ensuring a systematic and structured approach to achieving our sustainability goals. The Board oversees all management impact while at the management level the social impacts are delegated to the Chief Human Resources Officer and the environmental impacts to the Chief Sustainability Officer. Delegation is done in alignment with Mowi's long-term plan. Mowi's sustainability strategy and policies are implemented through out the group and influence all business areas and business units. Mowi's ESG governance includes how all bodies relate to Mowi's sustainability strategy and how to relate to IRO's within each entity and business area in the group.

Our annual updates follow the double materiality concept, i.e., an assessment of the impacts of Mowi products and operations on people, environment, and society as well as an analysis of sustainability-related commercial risks and business opportunities for Mowi. Annually, we review our materiality analysis in our global sustainability networks, in the Group Management Team and in the Board of Directors. The Board runs a strategic discussion on actual and potential positive and negative impacts on the economy, the environment and people, across Mowi's own operations and its business relationships.

All business units periodically upload their sustainability reporting into a common consolidation system. All subsidiaries are responsible for the accuracy of their reported figures, and for ensuring that their sustainability reporting is in compliance with the Group's reporting principles. In addition, general and analytical controls of the reported figures are performed at corporate level and reviewed by both business area and group functions.

At Mowi, we are committed to ensuring that our sustainability governance bodies possess the necessary skills and expertise to oversee sustainability matters effectively. We have put in place mechanisms to ensure that these bodies can either directly possess or leverage sustainability-related expertise, for instance, through access to industry experts or regular training programmes.

Moreover, we have ensured that these skills and expertise directly relate to Mowi's material IRO's, providing us with the necessary tools and knowledge to navigate effectively the complex landscape of sustainability. Mowi has board members with experience of implementation of SDGs in a business perspective, green financing, UN Climate Neutral Now programme, the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative and the additional Collective Commitment to Climate Action.

Omission of information, exemption for disclosure or special circumstances

Mowi has not used the option to omit a specific piece of information corresponding to intellectual property, know-how or the results of innovation, and has not used the exemption from disclosure of impending developments or matters in the course of negotiation. Mowi has not used exemptions in regards to disclosures to protect the interest of our stakeholders and there are no special circumstances to report for Mowi in the reporting year.

Time horizons

The time horizons considered in this reporting align with those applied in the financial statements. Short term is the reporting period in our financial statement, one year. Medium term is from the end of the short-term up to five years and long-term is defined as more than five years. Very long-term (context of climate change) is considered from 2030 to 2050. Mowi has no major deviations from the defined time horizons.

Sources of estimation, outcome uncertainty and reporting errors in prior periods

In our reporting, we have identified several areas where there exists a degree of uncertainty, primarily attributed to external factors. These areas include future revenue and cost projections, market

share estimations, updates of external databases/global indices and environmental impact metrics. The sources of this uncertainty relate to economic fluctuations, regulatory changes and variability in environmental data. Mowi uses the best-available environmental data as a basis for our reporting.

We recognise that the forward-looking information presented in this report is subject to uncertainty. This is primarily due to the dynamic nature of market conditions and environmental factors that influence our business operations, as well as the fact that Mowi's Farming operations are exposed to biological factors. We have updated our reporting to reflect all the new CSRD requirements but made no significant changes to prior periods of sustainability data. Further, no material errors from prior periods have been identified.

Mowi has incorporated information from other recognised standards and legislation to provide a comprehensive view of our sustainability performance. We have referenced the Greenhouse Gas Protocol for environmental reporting. Our reporting foundations are also basis on other reporting frameworks, namely the Global reporting Initiative (GRI) and the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB).

Sustainability governance

Board of Directors

At present, the Board of Directors consists of ten members, of whom seven are elected by the general meeting and three are employee representatives. All shareholder-elected Board members are considered independent of the company's executive management and material business partners. Four of the seven shareholder elected Board members, including the Chair of the Audit Committee, are considered independent of the Company's largest shareholders. These are Kristian Melhuus, Lisbet K. Nærø (Chair of Audit Committee), Leif Teksum (member of the Audit Committee) and Kjersti Hobøl. None of the Mowi executives are members of the Board. The Board gender diversity ratio is four females to six males. The Board has an average gender ratio of 40% females to 60% males.

The Board has formally assessed its performance and expertise in 2024 as recommended by the Norwegian Code of Corporate Governance. The assessment focuses on the Board's effectiveness to continuously improve governance and support the company's performance. Furthermore, it evaluates several areas of work including, but not limited to, the work of the Board, its composition, work climate and the Board's competence.

Furthermore, we have ensured representation from our employees with three representatives in the Board. These representatives bring relevant insights from our operations and represents a positive addition to Board decision-making processes.

Our board members have relevant experience as regards the salmon industry, our products and the geographic locations where Mowi operates, providing us with the expertise required to navigate the complex landscapes we operate in. Moreover, we have a significant percentage of independent board members, ensuring an unbiased and objective approach to our governance processes.

Group Management Team

Our Group Management Team comprises nine members, all of whom have extensive experience and expertise in their respective fields. The team has a gender ratio of two females to seven males. The team's background, expertise and composition brings a balanced perspective to our leadership. The gender split on our Group Management Team is 20% females to 80% males.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee supports the Board of The Directors and the Group Management Team and is responsible for the integrity and compliance of the CSRD reporting. The Audit Committee meets six times a year and will annually review our CSRD reporting. The Audit Committee reports to the Board.

The overall purpose for Mowi's Remuneration Guidelines for the Executive Management is to provide a strong framework for executive remuneration that contributes to achieving Mowi's business strategy, is in Mowi's long-term interests and ensures the company is run sustainably, for continuous creation of long-term shareholder value. The key elements of the group strategy for the Company is long-term growth, cost performance and sustainability. The Guidelines are in line with recognised principles of corporate governance, and the remuneration principles shall be transparent, understandable and meet general acceptance internally in the Company, among the Company's shareholders and with the public. The remuneration principles for variable compensation are linked to the Company goals and as such support the Company strategy, long-term interest and financial sustainability.

Each year, details regarding remuneration to senior executives are presented in a separate report according to Allmennaksjeloven (The Public Limited Liability Companies Act) § 6-16 b. The remuneration report for 2023 was approved at the annual general meeting in 2024. The report is available at the company website www.mowi. com.

Mowi's incentive schemes are linked to sustainability matters, amongst other factors. These incentive schemes are variable components of the general remuneration policy referred to as our Short-Term Incentive Programme (STIP) and Long-Term Incentive Programme (LTIP), both of which are received by members if certain performance criteria (KPIs) are fulfilled.

Integration of climate-related considerations in remuneration

Our remuneration policy has been structured to encourage strategies and decisions that are in sync with our long-term climaterelated objectives. As of 2024, a portion of the remuneration awarded to members of the Group Management Team (especially the Chief Sustainability Officer, CSO) is tied to performance against predetermined climate-related targets:

For 2024, approximately 10% of the variable remuneration from the Short-Term Incentive Programme (STIP) for senior and middle management was directly linked to the achievement of sustainability-related targets. Our variable remuneration is regulated in our bonus policy and bonus KPIs are evaluated yearly. The HSE (Health Safety and Environment) target is measured by an LTIF (Lost Time Incident Frequency) target of below 3 per million hours worked, as a sustainability-related global KPI for 2024 that is applicable for all employees at all levels who are eligible to take part in the Mowi Bonus scheme. In addition to global sustainability KPIs, our segments have their own sustainability related goals (e.g. salmon survival rates and electricity savings), and some individuals have individual sustainability related goals (e.g. the Chief Sustainability Officer has 10% of variable compensation linked to achieving energy efficiency and biodiversity targets). This linkage is designed to underscore the importance we place on sustainability in our overall business strategy. Sustainable Growth: Incentivising strategies that facilitate sustainable business growth while minimising adverse environmental impacts. Performance assessment against GHG emission reduction targets In 2024, the performance of our CSO has been assessed against the outcome of an ESG global benchmark, which includes performance on greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction targets set in our sustainability roadmap: Established GHG emissions reduction targets aligned with 1.5ºC. Science Based Targets.

  • 10% of the variable compensation is linked to climate-related considerations.
  • Performance is assessed against the GHG emission reduction targets outlined under Disclosure Requirement E1-4.

The climate considerations factored into the remuneration policy include

  • Emissions Reduction: Rewarding efforts and initiatives that contribute directly to the reduction of GHG emissions in our operations.
  • Innovation & Adaptation: Encouraging the development and deployment of innovative solutions to reduce our carbon footprint and enhance our resilience to climate impacts.
  • Stakeholder Engagement: Promoting active engagement with stakeholders to encourage collaboration and knowledge sharing in climate actions.
  • Achieved a reduction in GHG emissions aligned with approved

Sustainability matters addressed by Mowi's sustainability governance bodies

Mowi's sustainability strategy - Leading the Blue Revolution Plan - has matured over the years and is embedded in Mowi's policies and throughout Mowi's global system for group policies and standard operational procedures (SOP) - ONE Mowi. Our ONE Mowi operational excellence programme, by centralising group policies and SOP, ensures we follow a one-company approach and ensures flow of information and active engagement by our sustainability governance bodies in addressing sustainability matters and groupwide implementation.

This section of the report includes the strategies and guidelines that have been important in developing a common culture of sustainability within Mowi. The link between management and operational execution of our sustainability strategy is ensured through our sustainability committee, our Chief Human Resources officer and our Chief Sustainability officer. These functions run global network meetings with representatives from our business units to maintain a common link between operational risks and opportunities and the corporate sustainability strategy and goals.

Information distribution

Mowi's Sustainability Committee ensures material information is distributed to relevant bodies. This process is conducted twice a year and includes detailed reports and regular additional meetings, when needed. During these sessions, a wide range of topics are covered, including but not limited to, material IROs, the progress of due diligence implementation, and the effectiveness of policies, actions, metrics, and targets adopted to address them. This comprehensive approach ensures that stakeholders are wellinformed and actively engaged in Mowi's sustainability journey. Through active participation in discussions and decision-making processes, these bodies influence Mowi's strategy and decisions in regards to sustainability.

During the reporting period, the sustainability governance bodies were well informed about Mowi's IROs. The Sustainability Team presents Mowi's material IROs at GMT monthly meetings, offering a comprehensive view of progress and areas that need attention.

Consideration of impacts, risks, and opportunities

The governing bodies at Mowi have been involved in incorporating the insights on IROs into the organisational strategy and decisionmaking processes. This integration is evident in the strategic planning where a significant emphasis is placed on implementing our sustainability targets.

During the reporting period, the governing bodies addressed a variation of material IROs. A significant step was made in sustainability through initiatives aimed at increasing fish health and welfare, carbon footprint reduction in our own operations, sourcing sustainable feed raw materials and increasing the inclusion of emerging feed raw materials, and increasing the due diligence of our supply chain.

In terms of risks, the bodies were attentive in navigating market fluctuations and potential supply-chain disruptions. Regulatory compliance has been observed to ensure that Mowi operates within the stipulated legal frameworks.

On the opportunities front, we made an effort to explore increased production volumes, enabling more food from the ocean to become available to a growing middle class. The execution of our postsmolt strategy and Mowi 4.0 were notable milestones, coupled with ongoing organic growth.

Performance monitoring and governance structure

While our governance bodies focus on overall sustainability targets, the sustainability committee, along with our management team, handles detailed targets. To ensure effective performance monitoring:

  • We run quarterly network meetings with our operational sustainability teams to ensure a detailed discussion on the performance of key performance indicators that reflect progress towards our established targets.
  • The sustainability department is tasked with regular monitoring and reporting on progress towards detailed sustainability targets to the governance bodies.
  • Furthermore, we have integrated a sustainability dashboard into our internal management systems, facilitating the visualisation and internal awareness of key performance indicators.

Business model and value chain description

We believe that by farming the ocean, we can sustainably produce healthy, nutritious and tasty food for society at large. 70% of our planet is covered by water, yet the United Nations Food and Agriculture organisation (FAO) estimates that only around 2% of the world's food caloric supply comes from the ocean.

The ocean has the potential to provide over six times more food than it does today, food that is highly nutritious containing essential vitamins, minerals, omega 3 and other nutrients not found in plantbased or other animal proteins. In fact, according to the Blue Food Assessment, the nutritional contribution of blue foods is significantly higher than previously estimated.

This approach ensures that our outputs, comprising sustainable products and services, translate into enhanced customer satisfaction, positive environmental impacts, and increased investor confidence.

We aim to be an integrated provider of proteins from the ocean, taking the lead in all key areas, from the production of fish feed to meeting the needs of the market. By integrating the entire value chain, we can control our products from roe to plate, and be more proactive in addressing challenges related to sustainable feed, breeding and genetics, farming and secondary processing. We also see research and development as integral across our value chain.

We believe there are benefits to vertical integration, due to the greater capacity it gives us to control the production process. We refer to activities which occur after farming (i.e. secondary processing) as downstream operations, and activities occurring prior to farming (i.e. feed production) as upstream operations. Our integrated production helps us stabilise costs, control the quality of our products and improve efficiency. Over time, vertical integration is expected to result in more stable earnings and unlock future growth. We expect to be less exposed to the cyclical nature of salmon prices, and to be better able to control the quality of our products. An important prerequisite for building the MOWI brand and gaining brand awareness is to gain consumer trust, and through Mowi's integrated value chain we believe that the company can differentiate the way our products are perceived, positioned and sold.

We collaborate closely with suppliers upstream to ensure the sustainability of raw materials and also downstream to secure eco-friendly products and meet our customers' ever increasing sustainability expectations.

Mowi has in place a global due diligence process for its suppliers which is the basis for assessing risk in our supply chain, both upstream and downstream. It covers ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance). Our human rights due diligence process is founded on principles of ethical business conduct, as expressed in our Code of Conduct, our global policy framework ONE Mowi, our human rights programme, and our risk assessment and management processes.

Revenue breakdown

Our main source of revenues is the sale of Atlantic salmon. Mowi produces and sells Atlantic salmon and our activities encompass most of the value chain for salmon. Europe is by far the largest market for our salmon, followed by Americas and Asia. Revenue for the Group derives mainly from the sale of Atlantic salmon and elaborated products either on spot sales or from contracts. We continually assess the alignment of our current product range and market strategies with our overarching sustainability goals. Mowi has not engaged in the production or distribution of any products or services that have been banned in certain markets, underscoring our adherence to regulatory compliance and ethical business practice. There have been no major changes with regards to our market presence in the reporting year. See note 4 of our financial statements for details.

Sustainability-related goals

Mowi has set ambitious sustainability-related goals which cover both environmental and social goals. Environmental goals include climate change (see E1), water and marine resources (see E3), and biodiversity and ecosystems (see E4). Social goals include our own workforce (S1) and workers in the value chain (S2). We also have animal welfare goals under Governance.

Strategy elements relating to sustainability

Leading scientists, international organisations such as the United Nations, and heads of state are coming together to recognise that food from the sea, so-called Blue or Aquatic Food, is uniquely positioned to contribute to the most pressing challenges humanity is facing: food security and climate change. From the United Nations (FAO, UN Global Compact) to world-leading scientists (see Blue Food Assessment and Ocean panel) there is an overall consensus that food from the ocean is a triple win: for people because it is healthy, for the planet because it is climate-friendly, and for the economy because it sustains local and global economies.

Mowi's vision of Leading the Blue Revolution and our sustainability strategy are aimed at realising the potential of blue foods. Mowi recognises the challenges and opportunities that lie before us, including adapting to changing regulatory landscapes and ensuring supply chain sustainability. Mowi has its own Research and Development department and invests in research and development to foster innovation and collaboration. Mowi has not utilised any exemptions as per Article 18, paragraph 1, sub-point (a) of Directive 2013/34/EU, maintaining our commitment to full transparency in our financial reporting.

Statement on Due Diligence

Mowi adheres to national and global standards of good corporate practice, including the United Nations Global Compact, the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises and the International Labour Organisation's Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. Mowi has implemented a risk-based due diligence approach centred around accountability, transparency, collaboration, and proactive engagement with stakeholders across our value chain.

Mowi's growth must be sustainable from an environmental, social and financial perspective. We need attractive financial results to have the financial strength to drive the sustainable development of our operations. This interdependency has led us to develop four equally important guiding principles for our operations – Profit,

Strategy, business model and value chain

Our sustainability strategy, Leading the Blue Revolution Plan, reflects Mowi's commitment to sustainable development.

Our sustainability strategy aims at inspiring, leveraging and guiding our day-to-day actions and decision-making so that we can realise our vision of Leading the Blue Revolution. It includes our targets on key areas including GHG emissions, freshwater stewardship and responsible use of marine resources though feed raw materials, biodiversity, animal welfare, social stewardship including our own workforce, and our supply chain. Our value chain includes a network of suppliers, manufacturers and distributors who collaborate to deliver value to our customers. This network is underpinned by a collective ambition to minimise environmental and social impacts and promote sustainable practices at every juncture.

From a global perspective, the two most significant challenges related to food production are greenhouse gas emissions and the feed used for animal protein production. We consider these challenges to represent opportunities for the salmon farming industry, as farm-raised salmon utilises significantly less feed than competing agricultural protein sources, and causes lower emissions of greenhouse gases.

The world needs more food from the ocean and blue foods have a key role to play in providing healthy and climate-friendly food for a growing world population. By providing more than 8 million healthy and sustainable meals every day, Mowi is part of the solution, providing food, nutrition and employment. For details on strategy, business model, and value chain and how this relates to our sustainability matters see also individual business areas, Dear stakeholder and Board report.

Interests and views of stakeholders

As a global seafood company, our activities influence a diverse group of stakeholders. At the same time, our stakeholders' viewpoints and decisions also have an impact on the success of our business. Therefore an ongoing engagement with our key stakeholders is inherent to our way of working. Stakeholders are identified based on their interests being affected by the economical, social and environmental impacts of Mowi's activities. Dialogue helps build trust, and as trust is one of Mowi's core values, we value every opportunity to listen to our stakeholders, to identify trends, to address critical issues and to build partnerships. Understanding our stakeholders' needs and interests will help us shape our strategy and better meet their expectations. Our policy on stakeholder engagement identifies our key stakeholders, the key ESG topics discussed and how we consider stakeholder input.

In addition, engagement with sustainability benchmark developers (e.g. the Coller FAIRR Index, Seafood Stewardship Index, Food and Agriculture Benchmark) help us to understand key sustainability and innovation trends.

This section of the report describes the processes and mechanisms through which we integrate stakeholder engagement into our business model and strategy.

Stakeholder engagement strategy

Our Code of Conduct underpins how we interact with stakeholders, and our internal standard and publicly available policy on Community Engagement define our strategy to engage key stakeholders in the communities where we operate. Our community engagement policy also sets minimum requirements on community engagement plans including those related to the Aquaculture Stewardship Council certification.

Continuous identification and prioritisation of relevant stakeholders and their topics of interest is done through Mowi's communication and sustainability global networks. The added insight from such networks contributes to our double materiality assessment.

Our stakeholder engagement policy describes the ongoing engagement we have which has influenced our CSRD-aligned double materiality assessment. This policy is not static but evolves continually to reflect the changing dynamics of our business environment and stakeholder expectations.

Stakeholder engagement

In general, the salmon sector has reported on sustainability for a long period and performs well in key international sustainability rankings (e.g. FAIRR, CDP, Sustainalytics, TIME, etc). For a long period of time we have received input from large stakeholder groups, we also have included "to work closely with our stakeholders" as part of our vision. As a global seafood company, our activities influence a diverse group of stakeholders. At the same time, our stakeholders' viewpoints and decisions also have

an impact on the success of our business. Therefore, an ongoing engagement with our key stakeholders is inherent to our way of working. Our engagement with these stakeholders is not sporadic but occurs at regular intervals, ensuring a continuous flow of feedback and insights.

We have identified several key stakeholders, including consumers and customers, local communities and indigenous peoples, suppliers, industry, employees, authorities, investors and creditors, media and NGO's.

Investors and creditors, through roadshows, capital markets days, quarterly results presentations and other presentations to share ambitions and concerns. We interact with this stakeholder group by face-to-face meetings/dialogue, responding to inquiries and through our website.

Authorities, to facilitate the development and implementation of smart, fair and enforced industry regulations. We organise site visits, participate in policy discussions, provide feedback to open hearings regarding changes in legislation etc, and use our website.

Consumers and customers, including key retailers, for product and process development and greater understanding of consumer expectations in general. Example of feedback is customer surveys, trade fairs, meetings/dialogue responding to inquiries, marketing activities of our MOWI brand and other products, audits, site visits and our website.

Suppliers, to ensure that we have a shared approach to the delivery of goods and services, sustainability, human rights and ethics in general. We arrange regular meetings to learn about new developments and accelerate more sustainable and affordable solutions, have dialogue in the context of industry initiatives, trade fairs, site visits, due diligence processes and our website.

Media, including social media, to understand the public perception of seafood in general and our business in particular. We maintain a dialogue with media in the context of press trips, press releases, trade fairs, international events and social media.

NGOs, for the mutual exchange of ideas and information. We maintain a dialogue with NGOs in the context of partnerships, responding to inquiries and through media and website interactions.

Employees, utilising their potential for personal and company growth and progress. We interact with this stakeholder group by employee survey, intranet, dialogue with employees and managers, training, website, diversity and safety awareness weeks.

Local communities and indigenous rights holders connected with where we operate, to promote healthy cooperation and create mutually beneficial solutions. We interact with this stakeholder group by community engagement plans, visits to farming sites, career days, beach clean-up days, career days, and through our website and social media.

The industry, for a unified approach to common global and local challenges, for greater seafood industry cooperation and continuous progress on global sustainability challenges, and for country-specific challenges, through local industry associations, e.g. Norwegian Seafood Federation (Sjømat Norge). We interact with this stakeholder group by local and global industry initiatives (e.g FEAP, Sjømat Norge, Chilean Salmon Council), via social media and through our website.

Understanding of stakeholder interests and views

During our due diligence and materiality assessment processes, we have increased our understanding of the interests and views of our key stakeholders. This understanding is not superficial but extends to how these interests and views relate to our strategy and business model. The insights gathered during these processes have for a long period of time shaped our sustainability initiatives and strategies, ensuring that our business operations are aligned with stakeholder expectations and societal needs.

In response to the insights gathered from our stakeholders, we have undertaken several amendments to our strategy and business model. Our updated targets, policies and actions reflect input from key stakeholders.

We maintain a mechanism to keep our administrative, management, and supervisory bodies informed about the views and interests of affected stakeholders concerning our sustainability impacts. Regular reports and updates are shared with these bodies, facilitating informed decision-making and strategy formulation, thereby ensuring that our business operations are aligned with our sustainability goals.

SBM-3

Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model

In adherence to the ESRS standards, Mowi is committed to maintaining transparency and sustainability in its operations. We are pleased to present a comprehensive disclosure of the material impacts, risks, and opportunities that influence our business model and strategy. This report aims to provide stakeholders with a detailed understanding of these elements and how they interact with our business operations.

Material impacts, risks, and opportunities assessment

Mowi has updated and improved the materiality assessment every year based on input from key stakeholders. We follow the double materiality concept of CSRD, i.e., an assessment of the impacts of Mowi products and operations on people, environment and society as well as an analysis of sustainability-related commercial risks and business opportunities for Mowi.

During the Materiality process we have identified key material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interactions with our strategy and business model are described. There is also a description of the process of identifying the material impacts, risks and opportunities and how this is linked to our final reporting of key sustainability figures or data points.

As regards the value chain, we include both upstream and downstream activities and give detailed analysis of where our largest risks and footprints are found. Mowi has in place a global due diligence process for its suppliers which is the basis for assessing risk in our supply chain, both upstream and downstream. Our human rights due diligence process is founded on principles of ethical business conduct, as expressed in our Code of Conduct, our global policy framework ONE Mowi, our human rights programme, and our risk assessment and management processes. The process on environmental due diligence starts with exposing all suppliers to global indices addressing biodiversity, water, and climate risks. Suppliers rated as high-risk are further exposed to a Mowi survey which goes into more granular questions regarding policies, monitoring and actions taken on climate topics, freshwater stewardship, responsible waste and wastewater management, air pollution and good agricultural practices.

Mowi has had both a top-down and a bottom-up process in regards to materiality, since the regulatory framework is significantly updated for reporting for 2024 and onwards. The final summary of impacts, risks and opportunities has been reviewed and compared to the "old" materiality matrix. In addition, the wording of some of the risk has been updated to reflect CSRD regulation.

Scoring of impacts, risks and opportunities was done using our current internal knowledge and that of our stakeholders throughout the engagement processes. Our CSRD-aligned double materiality tool included the CSRD requirements on assessing impact and financial materiality including considerations and definitions of scale, scope, irremediability, likelihood and potential magnitude as well as the rationale behind the definitions.

The outcomes of the materiality assessment have been presented and approved by the administration, group management team and the board.

Material impacts analysis

From all the sustainability matters assessed, we reached a crucial impact on Climate change (E1) as this topic was considered to have potential for a high positive impact by our business. The potential of blue foods to promote dietary shifts and reduce the emission gap needed to achieve the Paris Agreement is clear and supported by science and our stakeholders. Therefore, we concluded that production of Atlantic salmon could have a widespread positive contribution. The potential negative impacts of climate change to our own operation, as well as potential disruptions in the value chain, were also considered. In addition to Climate change, Business conduct (under Governance) was also considered to have a crucial impact. Our corporate culture and how we address topics such as corruption and animal welfare are fundamental to building trust and positive perception of our sector and company, and ultimately to retaining our license to operate.

Biodiversity and Ecosystems (E4) was considered to have a significant impact as Mowi's vision is to Lead the Blue revolution and unlock the potential of the ocean in a way that respects our planet. Our operations must contribute to stable and resilient ecosystems, and we must co-exist within planetary boundaries. Our stewardship of the environment is essential to reach our long-term goals and to safeguard the interests of future generations. Although this topic was considered to have both a positive and negative impact, our stakeholders provided higher scores to the potential negative impact. Water and Marine Resources (E3) was also considered to have a significant impact. As fish farmers we are dependent of both freshwater resources mainly for the production of smolts, and marine resources as input to feed in the form of fish oil and fish meal. Our stakeholders identified both positive impacts, such as lower freshwater use as compared to other land animal proteins, but also negative impacts such as dependency on marine raw materials in fish feed.

Our Own workforce (S1) was also considered as having a significant impact with health and safety being considered as one of the most material impacts. Mowi's commitment to offering safe, meaningful, and attractive jobs, fostering an environment where every voice is heard and respected is recognised by our stakeholders, including our own employees. Workers in the value chain (S2) was also considered to be significant from an impact point of view as our business depends on a well functioning value chain where both environmental and social due diligence are considered.

Potential financial effects and strategy

We have updated the financial materiality analysis in our own operations by rating the risks and opportunities of a sustainability topic.

The potential financial risks and opportunities were rated based on likelihood of occurrence and magnitude of financial effect. The financial risk identification took into consideration the continuing use of resources and business relationships for all the types of capital (financial, manufacturing, natural, human and social and relationship). Financial materiality for Mowi Group is set in the range of EUR 30-50 million, based on 5-year average profit before tax. An amount above this threshold could potentially influence the decisions of a user of the financial statements.

For internal risk management we use this as a baseline, but much smaller amounts are followed up and monitored. Internally the internal control and risk management approach is built on the COSO model, and we have a strong culture for internal control and a close monitoring of the different business units and their performance/reporting. This approach will also to a large extent be applied for our Sustainability reporting. We also run a resilience analysis on topics such as climate change and biodiversity to help us understand the potential financial impact of these topics. The Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) report aligned with IFRS S2 is also seen as part of our resilience analysis.

Mowi invest in new technologies and projects that have positive effects on both financials and sustainability, including postsmolt and Mowi 4.0 technologies. With regards to cost, this is one of our strategic pillars. Addressing cost has become engrained in Mowi's workflow, and the company has initiated another global cost savings programme for 2025 with a target of EUR 30 million of savings during the year, which comes in addition to targeted savings in the areas of postsmolt, Mowi 4.0, productivity and efficiency. At the Capital Markets Day in 2024, Mowi announced a total cost reduction potential in the range of EUR 300-400 million over the coming five years. Cost is also part of the company's bonus model. In addition there is an energy saving programme strongly linked with the action plan to reduce our climate impact.

Our strategy is to produce a healthy, safe and environmental friendly food from the ocean by integrating the entire value chain for Atlantic salmon. This is strongly connected to the financial effects for Mowi Group. Our financial success hinges on our ability to provide customer value from healthy, tasty and nutritious seafood that is raised both cost-effectively and in an environmentally sustainable way.

We don't expect any major financial effects or cash flows in the upcoming annual reporting period with regards to the changes described above. Increased capex or opex with regards to sustainability is reflected in our financial statements and also in our impairment assessments.

Mowi has a robust financial strategy where the primary objective of the Group's capital management is to ensure access to capital contributing to satisfactory operations and maximum generation of shareholder value. The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in underlying economic conditions. Access to borrowed capital is continuously monitored and the Group has a continuous dialogue with its lenders. For details on our debt and financing arrangements please see note 11.

Mowi strives to align its financing with our sustainability strategy. In 2020, Mowi became the first seafood company in the world to issue a green bond and in 2021 we established a loan facility linked

Mowi's double materiality

alongside a summary of impacts, risks and opportunities has been approved by Group management and the Board. Mowi's material topics are listed in the double materiality illustration.

Our materiality framework

Drawing inspiration from globally accepted approaches, we developed a systematic materiality framework tailored to Mowi's context and value chain. We arranged the prioritised topics into a structured matrix.

Mowi follows the double materiality concept, i.e., an assessment of the impacts of Mowi products and operations on people, environment and society as well as an analysis of sustainabilityrelated commercial risks and business opportunities. Understanding and prioritising the sustainability topics that resonate with our stakeholders and have a profound impact on our operations is vital for Mowi's sustained success. To guide our sustainability initiatives and to ensure our alignment with stakeholders, we aligned our existing materiality assessment with the CSRD principles for the year 2024. Mowi has had both a top-down and a bottom-up process with regards to materiality. The final double materiality assessment

to Mowi's performance against carefully selected sustainability indicators. Mowi's goal for the coming years is for its entire debt financing to be in sustainable format, promoting progress towards both company-wide climate targets and investments towards a low-carbon and environmentally sustainable economy. In 2023 Mowi published its Green and Sustainability-Linked Financing Framework, taking a step further towards this goal by allowing Mowi to raise capital through bonds and loans, and in both green and sustainability-linked formats. The Green and Sustainability-Linked Financing Framework is therefore divided into two sections that describe the commitments of each format: the Green Financing Framework and the Sustainability-Linked Financing Framework. Mowi's target is 100% green or sustainability-linked financing and at year-end 2024, 95% of our financing is green or sustainabilitylinked.

IMPACT MATERIALITY

Topic identification

Mowi has a long history of materiality reporting. In 2024, Mowi had a full review of the materiality process and developed a systematic framework and approach. The materiality analysis included a long list of potential sustainability topics relevant to Mowi, our industry and our complete value chain. We have used external and internal benchmarking, industry standards, and emerging global trends. Mowi assesses material sustainability related impacts, risks and opportunities according to the ESRS concept and requirements of double materiality.

Stakeholder engagement

We captured stakeholder viewpoints as follows:

  • Discussions were conducted amongst Mowi employees and management.
  • Targeted interviews with both internal and external stakeholders.
  • Regular engagements with our shareholders and supply chain partners.

Topic prioritisation

Based on the feedback and data gathered, we analysed the topics, assigning them scores based on their significance to stakeholders and potential business impact. Impact materiality is assessed in terms of actual and potential sustainability impacts from Mowi's own activities and/or business relationships in the upstream and downstream value chain, as well as an assessment of actual and potential positive sustainability impacts. Financial materiality is assessed in terms of risk of negative reputational, financial, or commercial consequences that are associated with sustainability topics, as well as potential sustainability-related upside risks, or opportunities. Prioritisation is performed in conjunction with executive management based on how often sustainability topics are raised by stakeholders and their impacts on the economy, the environment and people.

IRO-1

Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities

Methodologies and assumptions

Mowi has developed its own assessment tool, grounded in the CSRD requirements, to run a double materiality assessment based on three steps. Step 1 is to understand the context and identify which ESRS topics could be relevant for Mowi. Step 2 is to assess the most material topics for our own operations and supply chain taking into consideration impact and financial materiality. Step 2 is further split into two main sub-steps: 2.1. impact materiality of selected topics from step 1, in our own operations as well as the value chain, and step 2.2. financial materiality of selected topics from step 1, in our own operations. Lastly, step 3 is a final assessment and determination of the material Impacts, Risks and Opportunities (IROs) related to sustainability matters

Understanding the context

Mowi's activities and business relationships are an integrated part of the materiality process. Mowi produces and sells Atlantic salmon and our activities include most of the value chain for salmon. Mowi's reporting segments are: Feed, Farming and Sales & Marketing. For details, reference is made to note 4 in the group financial statements.

Mowi has used a comprehensive framework to identify, assess, and manage the material impacts, risks, and opportunities that are inherent in our operations and value chain. At Mowi, we employ a three-step approach to identify and assess the material impacts, risks, and opportunities that our operations and value chain present. This approach is rooted in a comprehensive review of internal data, stakeholder engagement, industry data and consultations with external experts. The elements identified through this process are meticulously assessed based on their potential impact on the environment, society, and our business operations. Regarding other contextual information and understanding of key stakeholders we use input from investors, media, customers, employees, suppliers, NGOs, scientific articles etc. Our Policy on Stakeholder Engagement identifies the key engagement processes we have in place throughout the year, which serve as touchpoints for discussions related to materiality, impacts, risks and opportunities. Identify the actual and potential impacts, risks and opportunities related to sustainability

In regards to the value chain, we include both upstream and downstream activities and have performed detailed analysis on where our largest risks and footprints are (see table below). Mowi has in place a global due diligence process for its suppliers which is the basis for assessing risk in our supply chain, both upstream and downstream, covering Environmental, Social and Governance aspects.

Our human rights due diligence process is founded on principles of ethical business conduct, as expressed in our Code of Conduct, our global policy framework ONE Mowi, our human rights programme and our risk assessment and management processes.

The process of environmental due diligence starts with screening suppliers against global indices addressing biodiversity, water and climate risks. Suppliers rated as high-risk are further exposed to a Mowi survey which goes into more granular questions regarding policies, monitoring and actions taken on climate topics, freshwater stewardship, responsible waste and wastewater management, air pollution and good agricultural practices.

matters

Mowi has updated the materiality matrix based on input from stakeholders, best practice, experience from previous years and also based on input from the Board and management. Mowi has both a top-down and a bottom-up process with regards to materiality. The final impacts, risks and opportunities have been reviewed and compared to previous materiality assessments.

By applying the assessment tool, each identified IRO has been assigned a score according to the level of significance. A score of 1 (lowest risk or opportunity), 2 (medium risk or opportunity) and 3 (highest risk and opportunity) was used.

The consolidated score for each sub- or sub-sub-topic within each ESRS is the result of the sum of all other scores per topic. The threshold to make a topic move forward to step 2 has been set to ≥12. Topics, sub-topics or sub-sub-topics scoring above the pre-defined threshold have been subject to an Impact and Financial Materiality Analysis in our own operations and value chain. An explanation has been provided for topics scoring below the threshold. Any assumptions used for the analysis were also identified in the materiality tool.

Scoring of impacts, risks and opportunities was done using our current internal knowledge and thatose of our stakeholders throughout the engagement processes. Several internal and external documents were used, which reflects the ongoing assessment of our business reality and future direction done in collaboration with stakeholders:

Environment

  • Internal documents: Annual Report, CDP water and climate, TCFD, TNFD, Biodiversity Framework, Sustainability Strategy, Policies, Certification Table/Overview, Green Bond Impact Report, Financial Reports, UN Global Compact Report, Capital Market Days presentations, Internal Sustainability Networks (Feed, Farming, Processing Plants, Sustainability Committee), Long Term Plan.
  • External documents: FAIRR assessment, Seafood Stewardship Index (SSI) from the World Benchmark Alliance, relevant peerreview papers, Ocean Panel reports and papers, Blue Food Assessment, FAO reports

Our key findings

We have identified our impacts on the environment and society (impact materiality assessment), how Mowi products and operations impact people, the environment and society as well as the sustainability-related risks that we are exposed to (financial materiality assessment), commercial-related risks and business opportunities. The outcome is aggregated per ESRS topic, showing that E1, E3, E4, S1, S2 and G1 are our most material sustainability matters.

Focus areas

  • Environmental: Climate Change (E1), Water and Marine Resources (E3) and Biodiversity and Ecosystems (E4)
  • Social: Own Workforce (S1) and Workers in the value chain (S2)
  • Governance: Business Conduct (G1) and animal welfare

Moving forward

Our updated materiality matrix reflects updated targets and is aligned with our sustainability strategy, Leading the Blue Revolution Plan. Throughout our review we also align our sustainability topics, targets and performance metrics with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The materiality assessment is important for our strategic sustainability initiatives for the coming years. Mowi will periodically revisit and refresh this assessment, ensuring our alignment with dynamic stakeholder expectations and evolving industry landscapes.

The Board together with senior executives develops, approves and updates Mowi's vision, values, guiding principles, leadership principles, materiality analysis, strategies, policies and targets related to sustainable development. The Board discusses, on at least a quarterly basis, the effectiveness of the actions being taken to address impacts on financials, the environment and people. Mowi is positioned to navigate the sustainability landscape confidently, ensuring that we continue to create value for our stakeholders and drive positive change within our industry and beyond.

Scope of impact

We used the rating scale below, from 0 (none) to 5 (global/ total), indicating how widespread the impact is, i.e. number of affected or extent of the environmental or social damage. From all the sustainability matters we reached a maximum impact of 4 (widespread) on Climate change as our business, through the production of food, can have a widespread positive contribution. It is not considered global/total due to the fact that salmon is not yet sold everywhere and focus on addressing malnutrition from an obesity perspective and not from a hunger perspective.

Irremediability

We used the rating scale below, from 0 (very easy to remedy) to 5 (non-remediable/irreversible) to indicate the extent to which the impact can be remediated e.g. whether, through compensation or restitution, the people affected can be restored to their exercise of right in question. We focused on the negative impacts. From all the sustainability matters we reached a maximum irremediability of either 1 (relatively easy to remedy short-term) or 2 (remediable with effort). Examples of remediable efforts are implementation of climate mitigation and adaption actions such as use of renewable electricity, deployment of batteries on feed barges, efforts to reduce water withdrawal at processing plants located in water scarcity areas, monitoring biodiversity protection, sourcing sustainable feed raw materials, investing in health and safe training and awareness, and maintaining and developing our due diligence process towards suppliers.

Likelihood

We applied a likelihood rate, varying from 0 to 100% in steps of 20%, indicating our estimate of how likely it is that a potential positive or negative impact will occur. The highest we achieved was an 80% likelihood of a negative impact on health and safety related issues in our own workforce. Summary of scale used for Likelihood: Almost certain (5), likely (4), possible (3), unlikely (2), rare (1) and never (0).

After all relevant risks and opportunities were ranked according to the scoreboards above, the materiality score was summarised and categorised into the following thresholds, which led to the final material topics to be fully included in our sustainability statement.

Materiality score

during 2024, with the mandate of making the objective, end goal, measurable targets and scope of each policy clearer. All of our policies can be found here.

Total materiality score is then summarised into the following scores. Critical 16-19, significant 12-15, important 8-11, informative 4-7 and minimal 0-3. In our process to identify impacts, risks and opportunities we focus on both direct and indirect impacts on people and the environment arising from our own operations and those resulting from our business relationships. We prioritise negative impacts based on their relative severity and likelihood, and positive impacts based on their scale, scope, and likelihood. Furthermore we analyse the financial implications of these elements and prioritise sustainability-related risks relative to other types of risks.

Important decisions affecting our sustainability targets are reflected in our strategy, supported by our internal controls, and continually updated to reflect the latest information in regards to sustainability.

Assessment and determination of the material IROs related to sustainability matters

Mowi followed two main steps to execute a CSRD double materiality analysis. Step 1 was to map which ESRS topic, sub-topics and subsub topics could be relevant for Mowi (see section above) and step 2 was to identify the most material topics for our own operations and supply chain taking into consideration an impact and financial materiality. Step 2 was split into two main sub-steps:

  • Impact materiality of selected topics from step 1, in our own operations and value chain
  • Financial materiality of selected topics from step 1, in our own operations.

Our CSRD-aligned double materiality tool included the CSRD requirements on assessing impact and financial materiality including considerations and definitions of scale, scope, irremediability, likelihood and potential magnitude as well as rational behind the definitions.

From step 1, we brought all the topics, sub-topics and sub-sub-topics that had crossed the threshold and performed an Impact Materiality analysis in our own operations by rating the negative and positive impacts (both actual and potential). We used the rating description below for scale, scope, irremediability and likelihood, in combination with negative and positive impacts both actual and potential. The internal and external documentation as well as the interaction with our stakeholders was used as support for these ratings.

Scale of impact

We used a rating scale, from 0 (none) to 5 (absolute), indicating the magnitude of effect or how grave the impact is for each of the topics that had crossed the threshold at step 1. From all the sustainability matters we reached a maximum impact of 4 (high) on Climate change, as this topic was considered to have the potential for a high positive impact on our business: The potential of blue foods to promote dietary shifts as a tool to reduce the emission gap needed to achieve the Paris Agreement.

Risk relates to uncertainty and the factors that may prevent us from generating expected returns, reaching our goals and delivering on our strategy. Through our risk management processes we identify, quantify, and define actions to manage the risks we are facing. We split our defined risks into subcategories within our four guiding principles Profit, Planet, Product and People to ensure that they are addressed by our most capable people within each area. Sustainability risk is fully integrated in our general risk model and similarly into the management process of identifying, assessing and managing opportunities to align financial and sustainability targets. Our process is informed by a range of input parameters both internal and external. In 2024 a more comprehensive analysis has been performed to ensure compliance with CSRD requirements.

ESG in brief

Our environmental, social and governance disclosures are based on the CSRD requirements. A number of tools and frameworks are used to support our disclosures, providing a complete overview of how we approach ESG in Mowi.

E1-1

Transition plan for climate change mitigation

At Mowi, we are committed to align with global efforts to mitigate the adverse impacts of climate change. As part of this commitment, we have developed a climate transition plan aligned with the CSRD requirements.

Mowi's transition plan for climate change mitigation identifies the key actions aimed at reducing our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and aligning our operations with the goals of the Paris Agreement. The plan includes initiatives across our operations, including energy efficiency, renewable energy adoption, supply chain management and adoption of new technology.

Mowi's climate transition plan identifies the key actions to reduce scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions aligned with the Paris Agreement. To reduce scope 1 emissions, two main actions have been identified, which are i) to reduce dependency on fossil fuels in our farming operations by connecting seawater sites to land power in Norway, and ii) to increase the installation or retrofitting of hybrid management systems in seawater farms in Norway, Chile and Scotland. The other main action is connected with scope 2 emissions which is to increase the share of renewable electricity, by purchasing guarantees of origin (GoO) or Renewable Electricity Certificates (RECs) and/or Power Purchase agreements (PPA) which enable the installation of solar panels on the roofs of our processing plants, feed plants and/or freshwater production facilities.

The reduction in scope 3 emissions is divided into actions related to FLAG and non-FLAG emissions. The transition plan identifies key actions to reduce the non-FLAG emissions related to reduced use of fuel from external vessels, feed (improved land-based management practices) and logistics (reduced use of ice, increased transportation of fillets versus HOG, greener road transportation, moving volumes from air freight to sea transport, use of sustainable aviation fuel). Several of these actions are dependent on new cost-effective technology to be developed within the next 5 years. FLAG emissions are expected to be reduced due to more strategic procurement prioritising suppliers with lower carbon footprints. To achieve climate neutrality by 2050, energy infrastructure will need to be developed in the farming countries where land power is not yet sufficiently developed in coastal areas (e.g. Canada, Scotland and Chile) to allow a transition from fuel generators to electricity. On our scope 3 emissions, the achievement of climate neutrality by 2050 will be possible if novel low carbon footprint raw materials become available and at a cost and volume that allows a significant transition from the higher carbon footprint vegetable feed raw materials to lower GHG emissions alternatives. In addition, our air freight volumes would need to be reduced and a transition to sea transport would need to become a reality. This should be possible if new freezing technologies allow products to remain of high quality and if consumers/retailers accept this shift without changing the perception of product quality.

Our climate transition plan is integrated into our overall business strategy and financial planning. Key strategic projects for the coming years, such as increasing production volumes, our postsmolt strategy and Mowi 4.0, will lead to extended usage of

E1 Climate change Environment

renewable electricity to meet rising energy demands. Additionally, higher production volumes call for more feed and the necessity of prioritising purchase of feed raw materials with lower carbon footprints.

The transition plan has been approved by Mowi's Sustainability Steering Committee, the Group Management Team and the Board of Directors.

Compatibility of GHG emission reduction targets with the Paris Agreement

In line with the Paris Agreement, we have established GHG emission reduction targets, aiming to reduce our scope 1 and 2 emissions by 51%, our scope 3 (non-FLAG) emissions by 28% and our scope 3 FLAG emissions by 33%, by 2030 (using 2019 as a reference year). These targets are approved by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) and designed to contribute towards limiting global warming to 1.5°C.

SBTi methodologies provide science-based emissions reduction pathways consistent with the decarbonization required to meet these temperature goals. These pathways are grounded in global carbon budgets from leading climate science, particularly the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which outline the total CO₂ that can be emitted globally to remain within 1.5°C or 2°C limits. By following the trajectory modelled by SBTi tools, Mowi establishes a decarbonization roadmap that ensures our targets are scientifically robust and aligned with the Paris Agreement.

Decarbonisation levers

The actions described above include the following decarbonization levers: Transport fuel switching (greener road transportation, use of sustainable aviation fuel and greener portfolio of external vessels), industrial electrification (electrification of seawater farms in combination of hybrid energy systems that allow a reduction of fuel use), use of renewables (through on-site generation of renewable electricity, off-site Power Purchase Agreements, PPA and purchase of Guarantees of Origin, GoO or international Renewable Electricity Certificates, iREC) and supply chain decarbonization (preferential sourcing of feed raw materials with a lower carbon footprint).

Investments and funding

Mowi's financial resources allocated to our climate action plan (OpEx) are estimated to be in total 13 MEUR (2025-2030). This relates mainly to purchasing of renewable electricity and sustainable aviation fuel.

Total estimated capex for the execution of our climate roadmap (2025-2030) is 21 MEUR which relates mostly to the installation and retrofitting of energy hybrid management systems at our seawater sites. Such systems allow a reduction in fuel usage and cost.

Locked-in GHG emissions: A qualitative assessment of potential locked-in GHG emissions from our key assets and products has been conducted. Our findings indicate that the investment in hybrid management systems at our seawater farms as per today is connected with the reduction of fossil fuels. This systems, however can also be used if other forms of energy are used such as solar, current or wind and therefore are not considered a lock-in investment. Investments done in new working vessels or new feed barges in our own operations that are not electric/hybrid are considered locked-in.

Impacts, risks and opportunities

Climate change impacts and GHG emissions

Mowi has identified and assessed the impacts of our operations on climate change, particularly focusing on our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Our GHG emissions inventory, which is conducted annually, employs methods consistent with internationally recognized standards, including the Greenhouse Gas Protocol. Our impacts relate to scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions. Our scope 1 emissions are primarily driven by fossil fuels in our farming operations. Scope 2 emissions originate mainly from electricity use throughout our feed, farming and processing activities. Our scope 3 emissions, which represent more than 90% of all GHG emissions originate mainly from sourcing of feed raw materials on the upstream side and from logistics on the downstream side of our value chain.

As of 2024, our total GHG emissions are 2 477 798 metric tonnes of CO2 equivalent.

Our strategy includes a continuous effort to reduce our carbon footprint through energy efficiency improvements, the transition to renewable energy sources and further developments in our upstream and downstream supply chain.

Mowi has identified several strategies to adapt to climate change across different time horizons. In the short term, our focus is on financial support, particularly green financing, to support our immediate sustainability initiatives. For the medium term, we are implementing our postsmolt and Mowi 4.0 strategies, allowing us to be better prepared for environmental changes and reducing the exposure to biological and environmental risks. In the long term, we are committed to implementing new cost-effective technologies that allow us to reduce emissions linked with feed raw materials and logistics.

More details on the actions we are taking to mitigate climate change can be found in E1-3.

We disclose our GHG emissions strategy and performance in association with the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). Mowi has improved its CDP climate rating from A- to A reflecting our continuous work on performance and transparency on climaterelated metrics.

Resilience analysis to assess climate-change physical and transitional risks

The resilience analysis encompasses an assessment of our entire value chain – from procurement to product development, operations, and distribution. The analysis focuses on the potential impacts of identified climate-related risks and opportunities over short, medium, and long-term horizons. We apply the same short-, medium-, and long-term horizons as defined earlier. These time frames align with the expected lifecycle of our key assets, our strategic planning cycles, and anticipated shifts in climate patterns. For instance, the medium-term horizon corresponds with our major investment cycles and the expected timeframe for significant regulatory changes related to climate change.

The resilience analysis was conducted in 2024, utilising climate scenario analysis as referenced in the Disclosure Requirement related to ESRS 2 IRO-1 and the associated application requirement paragraphs.

Mowi's climate scenario analysis focuses on two critical questions: "What impact will extreme weather events and rising sea surface temperatures have on our farming operations?" and "What effect will a transition to a net zero economy have on carbon taxes?" Addressing these questions is important for ensuring our operational and financial sustainability.

To identify material risks, Mowi conducted a comprehensive risk assessment, evaluating physical risks such as the increased frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, rising sea temperatures, and harmful algal blooms. These factors can disrupt farming operations, affect fish health, and potentially increase mortality rates. Additionally, we assessed transition risks associated with regulatory changes, particularly the potential introduction of higher carbon taxes as economies shift towards net zero emissions. Such changes could increase our operational costs, especially in areas heavily reliant on fossil fuels for energy.

Complementing the risk assessment, a financial analysis was conducted to quantify the potential impacts on Mowi's revenue, costs and overall financial performance. Through this detailed analysis, Mowi aims to develop strategies that mitigate risks, capitalize on opportunities, and ensure the resilience of our operations. Despite the potential for a financial impact, Mowi's resilience analysis concluded that such impact is not significant as adaptation and mitigation strategies would minimize the realization of the financial impact.

The scenarios chosen for the analysis were selected based on examining two different categories of risk; physical and transition.

  • SSP1-2.6; The SSP1-2.6 scenario is aligned with limiting global warming to around 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. This pathway covers a time horizon up to year 2100 and is based on the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP) framework developed by the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) and other research institutions. It represents a scenario characterized by strong climate policies and substantial progress in sustainable development.
  • SSP5-8.5; The SSP5-8.5 scenario corresponds to a significant temperature increase, projected to be around 3.5°C to 4.5°C above pre-industrial levels. This scenario extends to year 2100 and is also part of the SSP framework. It reflects a future with high greenhouse gas emissions and minimal mitigation efforts, highlighting a trajectory of continued reliance on fossil fuels and high energy consumption.
  • IEA NZE (Net Zero Emissions); The IEA NZE (Net Zero Emissions) scenario is designed to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, aiming to limit global temperature rise to well below 2°C, ideally around 1.5°C. This scenario covers the period up to 2100 and is developed by the International Energy Agency (IEA). It focuses on a comprehensive transition to clean energy and substantial reductions in emissions to meet longterm climate targets.

Progress in implementing the transition plan

Since the launch of the transition plan, we have successfully implemented several initiatives, and we are on track to achieve scope 1 and 2 emission reduction targets within the stipulated timeframes. In 2024, we increased our share of renewable electricity from 12% in 2019 and 58% (location-based; or 37% market based) in 2023 to 59% (location-based; or 62% market based) in 2024. We also increased the number of sites using hybrid management systems to a total of 34 systems, compared to 31 in 2023.

On our scope 3 emissions, we have strengthened our collaboration with feed raw material suppliers to obtain higher quality primary data and prioritized sourcing vegetable feed raw materials with a lower carbon footprint. Therefore, we are on track to achieve our scope 3 - FLAG targets. Additionally, we have reduced ice usage in transportation and increased the volume of fillets transported, contributing to more efficient product logistics throughout our value chain. Despite these actions, our non-FLAG related scope 3 emissions have increased over time.

Upon conducting the resilience analysis, we observed that our business model exhibits strong resilience under various climate scenarios. Our proactive measures, including the investment in postsmolt and Mowi 4.0 including Smart Farming, position us favourably in the transition to a low-carbon economy. However, under more severe climate scenarios, physical risks like extreme weather events and increased seawater temperatures could potentially put greater pressure on farming operations. To address this, we expect to realise further projects as part of our postsmolt strategy and Smart Farming initiatives to increase visibility and prediction of environmental conditions and also reduce the production time at sea.

Furthermore, our scenario analysis highlighted opportunities to further strengthen our resilience by increasing innovation in low-carbon technologies and enhancing our engagement with stakeholders to develop collaborative solutions to mitigate climate change impacts. We continue to monitor and adjust our strategies to ensure the long-term sustainability and resilience of our business in a changing climate landscape.

Climate change related risks and opportunities

To identify climate-related hazards, we considered high emission climate scenarios including a SSP5-8.5 scenario corresponding to a significant temperature increase, projected to be around 3.5°C to 4.5°C above pre-industrial levels. This scenario extends to 2100 and is also part of the SSP framework. Our assessment showed that our assets and business activities can be exposed to climate-related hazards.

Under this scenario, we identified as potential hazards:

  • increased frequency of extreme weather events (potentially impacting both our own operations and our value chain). We consider the possible increase in frequency and intensity of extreme weather events as a physical risk. These events have the potential to disrupt our supply chains by for example impacting logistic flows and/or impacting availability of feed raw materials. Our own operations may also be impacted by extreme weather events which can lead to infrastructure damage leading for example to escape incidents.
  • increased seawater temperatures (potentially impacting mainly our own operations). Fish stock survival, health, growth and welfare is affected by environmental factors such as plankton, low oxygen levels and fluctuating seawater temperatures. Increased seawater temperatures can e.g. cause Harmful Algae Blooms (HABs) leading to fish illness and mortality.

Mowi has also conducted an assessment to understand the extent to which our assets and business activities are exposed and sensitive to increased seawater temperatures. For our farming operations, we use satellite data sets (gathered from NASA's Earth Observing System Data and Information System) to further understand possible climate impact. The comparison of average monthly records of ocean temperature in 2024 with the same data set from the average of the past 20 years indicates no clear

Significant capex in coal, oil, and gas-related activities: Mowi has no significant capex in coal or oil and gas-related activities. EU Paris-aligned benchmarks: Mowi is not excluded from the EU Paris-aligned benchmarks, showcasing our dedication and alignment with the goals of the Paris Agreement.

As of the reporting year 2024, we have started to implement our CSRD-aligned transition plan along with our SBTi updated targets, aligned with 1.5°C target. Prior to 2024, Mowi has developed a climate roadmap, which served as the foundation for the CSRDaligned climate transition plan.

The development of our transition plan involves comprehensive stakeholder engagement, including consultations with environmental experts, industry peers, and representatives from all levels of our workforce. We are also leveraging insights from our existing sustainability initiatives to shape the plan.

The plan focuses on several key areas, including reducing GHG emissions, increasing energy efficiency, transitioning to renewable energy sources, and investing in low-carbon technologies. It also encompasses measures to enhance our operational resilience against climate-related risks and opportunities. In formulating this plan, we are aligning our goals and strategies with international standards and agreements, particularly the Paris Agreement. This alignment ensures that our efforts contribute effectively to global climate change mitigation objectives.

Recognizing the scale of the climate change challenge, Mowi is exploring collaborations and partnerships with external stakeholders such as the UN Global Compact, the Global Sustainable Seafood Initiative, the High Level Panel for a Sustainable Ocean Economy and industry associations.

The development and implementation of the transition plan are overseen by our Chief Sustainability Officer and Mowi's Sustainability Committee. The Sustainability Committee is responsible for ensuring that the plan is integrated across all areas of our operations and for monitoring the progress. Mowi's Climate Transition Plan has been approved by the Group Management Team and the Board of Directors.

pattern in local ocean temperature changes at our seawater farming locations, except for an increase in sea surface temperature in Region North in Norway.

In the short term, we are focusing on extreme weather events (acute hazard). Over the medium term, we are monitoring rising average temperatures (chronic hazard). In the long term, our focus is on supply chain disruptions. We have screened the location of our farming activities to understand their exposure to these hazards, using tools like sea surface temperature predictions under different climate scenarios.

Our definitions of short-, medium-, and long-term time horizons are aligned with the strategic planning cycles, and capital allocation plans. For example, the medium-term horizon aligns with our major infrastructure investment cycles and anticipated regulatory changes in climate policy.

Mowi utilizes a combination of in-house research and external consultancy to identify and anticipate these hazards.

Climate change related transition risks and opportunities

Mowi has identified potential climate-related transition events under a 1.5°C scenario. These events include regulatory changes promoting low carbon economy, technological advancements, and shifts in market preferences towards sustainable products and services. Our analysis includes both regulatory drivers such as carbon pricing and non-regulatory drivers like new technology and consumer preferences.

Mowi has identified the transition events over short-, medium-, and long-term horizons. Such identification was done based on internal research, stakeholder input and use of external consultancy. In the short term, we are focusing on immediate shifts in consumer preferences towards low-carbon products. Over the medium term, we anticipate broader market shifts and technological advancements in sustainable energy. In the long term, we are preparing for a transformational shift in industry standards and practices aligned with climate-related public goals. Each of these time frames has been used to screen our assets and business activities for exposure to transition events.

We have conducted an assessment to understand how our assets and business activities might be exposed to and affected by these transition events. Under the IEA Net Zero Emissions (NZE) scenario, carbon pricing in Norway is projected to rise significantly as part of a global strategy to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. This scenario involves substantial policy shifts and increasing carbon prices to drive reductions in greenhouse gas emissions across various sectors. Currently, Norway's carbon pricing mechanisms include both the European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) and national carbon taxes.

By 2030, the IEA NZE scenario projects that the carbon price in Norway will likely reach approximately 130 to 150 EUR per tonne of CO₂. This anticipated rise is driven by the need to intensify efforts to meet intermediate climate targets and push for deeper emission reductions. The significant increase in carbon pricing will directly impact the cost of diesel, a major fuel used by Mowi for powering

feed barges and other operational equipment. Currently, with diesel prices around 1.5 EUR per litre and a carbon price of 100 EUR per tonne, the carbon component of diesel costs about 0.15 EUR per litre. If the carbon price increases to 150 EUR per tonne by 2030, the carbon-related cost component will rise to approximately 0.22 EUR per litre.

Higher carbon prices under the IEA NZE also have the potential to impact Mowi's supply chain costs and logistics as suppliers could potentially pass on the increased costs associated with their own carbon emissions.

To adapt to these financial transitions, Mowi is prioritising more investment in cleaner technologies, installing hybrid energy systems for feed barges or connecting site to land power, wherever possible, to reduce diesel consumption and associated carbon costs. This transition requires capital expenditure but is essential for long-term cost savings and compliance with stricter climate regulations under this scenario.

We have identified the following transition risks emerging from the transition to a low-carbon economy:

  • Transition to Low-Carbon Technologies: the use of Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS), which benefits a reduction in water withdrawal, could increase the energy-intensity of farming operations, as these systems are more energy demanding compared to flow-through systems.
  • Regulatory Compliance and Policy Changes: Increased carbon taxation on GHG emissions is becoming common practice in several countries where we operate. These prices have the potential to increase which may impact operational costs. Actions such as the electrification and the installation of hybrid management systems at our seawater sites mitigate this risk.
  • Reputational Risks are linked with extreme weather events that could lead to escape incidents and negatively impact the perception of our sector.

Opportunities comprise potential increase in product demand, linked with dietary shifts from land-based animal protein to seafood. Mowi is actively strategising to leverage the opportunities while mitigating the risks, thus aligning our business model to a sustainable and resilient future.

We also align these scenarios with our assumptions regarding future expenditures on climate mitigation and adaptation measures. Our capex and opex forecasts incorporate expected investments in renewable energy, energy efficiency improvements, and other

needs. Mowi has implemented robust policies to manage our material impacts, risks, and opportunities related to climate change mitigation and adaptation. These policies cover aspects such as reducing carbon emissions, enhancing energy efficiency, and adapting our operations to be more resilient against climate-related risks. Our policies also include proactive measures to engage with stakeholders on climate-related issues and integrate climate considerations into our decision-making processes.

Compatibility of climate scenarios with financial assumptions

Mowi has used climate scenarios that align with the critical climaterelated assumptions in our financial statements. In our financial projections and asset valuations, we assume a gradual transition to a low-carbon economy, consistent with a 1.5°C warming scenario. This assumption underpins our estimations of asset life, depreciation and potential impairments.

green initiatives, which are important for maintaining business resilience in line with our climate scenario projections. In summary, the climate scenarios used by Mowi are part of our strategic planning and aligned with the assumptions and estimations in our financial statements. This alignment ensures that our financial reporting provides a realistic view of our future financial performance in the context of evolving climate-related risks and opportunities. E1-2 Management of impacts, risks and opportunities Policies Mowi is fully committed to contributing positively towards the global fight against climate change. Our production of food from the ocean has clear credentials as a climate smart protein. The role of dietary shifts from land animal protein to aquatic food is clearly part of the solution to reduce the emissions gap the world The Mowi Climate Change and Energy Use Policy outlines the company's commitment to the Paris Agreement, to limit the increase in global average temperature to below 1.5˚C, and outlines our approved Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi). Our policy addresses impacts and risks of climate change such as increased seawater temperatures and extreme weather events but also opportunities linked with an increasing recognition that seafood is a climate friendly alternative to land animal proteins. Our scope 1, 2 and 3 GHG emissions data are subject to external audits and reported publicly on an annual basis, and the policy describes targets for each, alongside a climate roadmap to reduce GHGs in each of our business areas: Feed, Farming and Sales & Marketing. In addition, we engage with our upstream feed raw material and downstream logistic suppliers to reduce our Scope 3 emissions. Our process for monitoring energy use and GHG emissions is in place and includes our monthly and quarterly reporting for own operations. Our supply chain is also covered by using global risk indices linked with climate change and a more detailed Mowi survey for suppliers at risk. Mowi reports on climate change aligned with global frameworks such as the GHG Protocol, TCFD/IFRS S2 and CDP. Our Chief Sustainability Officer has the main responsibility for the implementation of this policy.

The climate scenarios we use are integrated into our financial risk assessments. This ensures that our financial reporting reflects potential impacts from climate change, such as shifts in market demand, changes in energy prices, and regulatory developments. For instance, our revenue projections consider increases in consumer awareness of seafood as a climate smart protein.

Objective of the Policy: Ensure responsible, transparent and proactive reduction in GHG emissions, aligned with our Science Based Targets and the Paris agreement.

The policies are integrated into our business strategy and operational procedures to create a resilient and sustainable business model. The following section outlines the key areas of focus:

E1-3

Actions and resources

Mowi has initiated several actions aimed at climate change mitigation and adaptation. To facilitate these actions, we have allocated resources in both financial and operational areas.

Our approach to combating climate change encompasses several decarbonisation levers. Here we outline key actions taken in 2024 and our strategic plans for the upcoming years:

  • Transition to Renewable Energy: In 2024, we purchased renewable electricity through GoO, aiming to reduce our scope 2 emissions. We also installed our first solar panels at our processing plant in Poland and at our feed plant in Scotland. We also initiated a PPA using wind energy in Poland.
  • Industrial electrification and Energy Efficiency: Implemented energy-saving initiatives, summing up to a total of 18 438 MWh being saved. These initiatives include installation of hybrid

energy management systems at our seawater sites in Norway, Chile and Scotland.

Supply chain decarbonization: In 2024, we continued our engagement process with key suppliers of feed raw materials and logistic partners to increase quality and accuracy of primary data.

By the end of 2024, Mowi successfully achieved 113 196 tonnes of CO2e reduction in total GHG emissions, relative to emissions in the base year, through our combined efforts. We anticipate a reduction of 843 689 tonnes of CO2e GHG emissions by 2030.

In the Farming business area, scope 1 and 2 emissions decreased from 316 kg in 2023 to 265 kg CO2e/tonne biomass produced in 2024 (market-based), and remained stable at 205 (203) kg CO2e/ tonne biomass produced in 2024 (location-based). In absolute terms this means a reduction from 184 293 in 2023 to 168 069 tonnes of CO2e in 2024. Our largest farming entity, Farming Norway (includes all freshwater, seawater and primary processing in Norway) showed a reduction in scope 1 and 2 emissions, from 95 109 tonnes CO2e in 2023 to 69 354 tonnes CO2e in 2024 (market based) and an increase from 27 575 tonnes CO2e in 2023 to 30 118 tonnes CO2e in 2024 (location based).

Nearly 50% of all active marine sites in Mowi are now using hybrid energy systems or are connected to land power. In Norway, 79% of our farming sites are either connected to land power, or using hybrid energy systems, or both. In 2024, we had a total of 22 hybrid energy systems installed in Mowi Norway, four installations in Mowi Scotland, five in Mowi Chile, one in Mowi Canada West, one in Mowi Ireland and one in Mowi Faroes. Total number of installed energy hybrid systems for the group in 2024 is 34. Mowi Faroes is 100% connected to land power while in Ireland, 54% of our seawater farming sites are connected to the grid.

Innovation projects continue to be part of Mowi's focus to reduce GHG emissions. Our Smart Farming concept is being implemented in all operations and sites through various digitalisation and automation projects. Examples of such projects are the installation and optimisation of Remote Operation Centres, automation and digitalisation of water quality sensors, implementation of fish health diagnostic and monitoring tools and net cleaning robots. These projects are contributing to making our farming operations more efficient and reducing GHG emissions by reducing the use of service vessels and associated fuel. In Norway, we are well underway with the implementation of next-generation underwater cameras allowing biomass monitoring and automated sea lice counting. Such automation removes the need for manual counting, leading to a reduction in vessel and fuel usage and a reduction in scope 1 emissions. In 2024, we have also strengthened training on operating vessels in a climate-friendly way. In our freshwater production we have focused on adjusting production temperature to reduce energy consumption and therefore GHG emissions. We have also installed energy management systems at selected Recirculating Aquaculture Systems installations.

In the Feed business area (including the plant in Norway and the one in Scotland), the intensity of GHG emissions (scope 1 and 2, market-based) increased from 33 to 35 kg CO2e/tonne feed produced (7% increase). In absolute terms this means an increase

processes, identifying the most relevant physical and transitional risks and opportunities and describing the most important actions, in our own operations and in our supply chain, which contribute to Mowi's climate transition plan.

Climate Change Adaptation: Understanding that climate change is a reality, Mowi is taking robust steps in adapting to the changing climate conditions. We have developed a Climate Change Action Plan that focuses on making our own operations more energy efficient, while working with our upstream and downstream suppliers to create awareness, set common targets and enhance performance in our supply chain. Creating flexibility in our feed raw material supply chains, while improving our feed conversion ratio is fundamental to a more sustainable future.

Energy Efficiency: Our commitment to energy efficiency is reflected in the introduction of energy-efficient programs in our production facilities.

Renewable Energy Deployment: We are in the process of installing solar panels at several processing plants and have purchased renewable electricity to cover 30% of the group energy needs in 2024. This initiative is in line with our objective to transition to a lowcarbon economy.

Other: In addition to the areas mentioned above, Mowi is actively involved in several other initiatives promoting sustainability. We have launched a postsmolt programme and Mowi 4.0 strategies which we believe will enhance our ESG metrics. Our Biodiversity Framework, Farming in Harmony with Nature, is also a key strategy towards biodiversity conservation. Moreover, we are involved in partnerships with organizations working towards a sustainable use of the oceans which include sustainable aquaculture.

Our strategies for climate change mitigation and adaptation are intertwined with our initiatives for energy efficiency and renewable energy deployment. Together, they form a business model set not only to withstand the challenges posed by climate change but also to leverage the opportunities that come with producing food from the ocean which has a lower carbon footprint in comparison with land animal proteins.

from 17 413 tonnes of CO2e in 2023, to 20 580 tonnes of CO2e in 2024. The increase in 2024 is mainly related to a power outage at our plant in Scotland where we had to use diesel generators. In 2024, 100% of the electricity used at the Scottish feed plant was from renewable sources. We continued our efforts to optimise energy efficiency at both plants, by focusing on improving the efficiency of the feed drying process, by optimising the air flow in our driers, measuring and gathering more data, using the data to optimise the process and finally automating the process to reduce the possibility of suboptimal operation.

The intensity of GHG emissions (scope 1 and 2, market-based) from the Sales & Marketing business area, which includes our secondary processing units and sales offices across the globe, also decreased from 72 to 69 kg CO2e/tonne sold end product. In absolute terms this means an increase from 31 956 in 2023 to 33 330 tonnes of CO2e in 2024. We continue to purchase renewable electricity and to focus on energy-saving initiatives at our plants. In 2024, our annualised energy saving initiatives added up to 1 390 MWh saved as a result of building new cold storage, replacing fluorescent lamps with LED, installation of air curtains in store freezers, removal of compressed air leaks, modernisation of the vacuum installation, adjustment of A/C systems, avoidance of running equipment when not in use, installation of motion sensors for lights in transit areas and recovery of heat from cooling installations.

In 2024, Mowi Feed's Scope 3 (including energy/industry and FLAG emissions) emitted 1 014 335 tonnes of CO2e (843 946) or 1.74 kg CO2e/kg feed produced (1.59). The absolute GHG emissions related to sourcing of feed raw materials and the intensity (kg CO2e/kg feed produced) increased in 2024 due to increased feed production.

The capital expenditures (capex) and operational expenditures (opex) allocated towards our sustainability efforts are detailed in note 10 and note 28 within our financial statements. Capex spent on Environmental Initiatives was EUR 5.9 million and opex related to sustainability projects was EUR 4.9 million. Mowi has no eligible activities under the EU Taxonomy.

Our sustainability efforts are closely monitored through the following key performance indicators:

  • Reduction in Carbon Footprint: 39%
  • Increase in Energy Efficiency: Farming 15%, Sales & Marketing 5% and Feed 23%

The implementation of our climate change actions depends on the availability and allocation of resources. Access to financing at a competitive cost of capital is important, especially for significant initiatives such as our postsmolt strategy, acquisitions and R&D investments. In 2024, we secured senior unsecured EUR 298 million green bonds which support our climate action plans.

Our engagement with our feed raw material suppliers includes discussions on primary data collection following the Product Environmental Footprint (PEF) guidelines, FLAG, and reductions in GHG emissions in their own value chains. We have also run several training events throughout 2024 with our suppliers of vegetable feed raw materials on developing and implementing good agricultural practices, including regenerative agriculture. More information regarding these supplier engagements is disclosed within E4-3. In 2024, we have seen several of our suppliers reducing GHG emissions by implementing practices to reduce energy use at their processing sites, but also at the farm level by giving preference to renewable energy sources (e.g ESG in the field programme by CJ Selecta). Our innovation work on testing new feed raw materials and optimising feed formulation has also resulted in a reduction in FFDRm for Mowi Group. forestry and aims to target Mowi's land-related emissions stemming from raw materials for fish feed production. Within the FLAG target, Mowi is committed to ensuring no deforestation across our primary deforestation-linked commodities. This commitment includes monitoring and reporting mechanisms to track progress. Mowi believes that future development linked with our postsmolt strategy and Mowi 4.0 will contribute to a further reduction in our scopes 1 and 2 emissions. Reduction in scope 3 emissions will be dependent of further developments in our upstream (lower carbon footprint feed raw materials) and downstream (improved freezing technologies that facilitate the transition from air freight to sea transportation and/or availability and acceptable cost of sustainable aviation fuel) value chains.

With regards to our green bonds and sustainability-linked loan, Mowi is committed to align its capital expenditures with its GHG targets. By 2024, the allocation of proceeds to green categories including those related to GHG emissions (sustainable feed) was EUR 164 million.

Targets and metrics

Mowi has established a series of ambitious climate-related targets, grounded in scientific research and aligned with global efforts to limit the rise in average global temperatures to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. These near-term targets are validated and externally assured by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) and are integral to our broader climate change policy, addressing material climate-related impacts, risks, and opportunities.

The underlying climate scenarios for these targets are based on the latest IPCC reports and reflect anticipated emissions reductions consistent with a 1.5°C trajectory. Policy scenarios consider current and emerging regulations, as well as anticipated market trends that support decarbonization efforts. The FLAG target has been derived using a sectoral decarbonization pathway, which incorporates specific climate and policy scenarios relevant to land use and

We are tracking the effectiveness of our policies and actions through a set of defined targets. These targets are monitored and evaluated periodically to ensure alignment with our strategic objectives. Here, we present a detailed breakdown of these targets. All our climate targets use 2019 as a reference year.

  • GHG Emissions Reduction (scope 1 and 2): Achieve a 50.6% reduction by the year 2030*
  • GHG Emissions Reduction (scope 3, non-FLAG): Achieve a 27.5% reduction by the year 2030 **
  • GHG Emissions Reduction (scope 3, FLAG): Achieve a 33.33% reduction by the year 2030***

Action plan

Our approach includes engagement with our vegetable feed raw materials and sourcing soy that is 100% deforestation-free.

In order to manage climate-related impacts, risks and opportunities more effectively, Mowi has established a plan that includes setting specific GHG emissions reduction targets. Mowi transparently presents its GHG emission reduction targets in absolute values. This method facilitates a clear and transparent monitoring of our advancements over time. Our emission reduction objectives encompass scopes 1, 2, and 3, each addressed with strategies to ensure emission reduction.

The GHG emission reduction targets are gross targets and do not include GHG removals, carbon credits or avoided emissions as a means of achieving the GHG emission reduction targets.

The organizational boundaries and the operational boundaries applied in the GHG inventory are the same as for the target, i.e. Mowi uses the operational control approach to define organizational boundaries of both the GHG inventory and the emission reduction targets, to assure alignment. The targets cover all emissions in the inventory that are assessed as relevant for Mowi's operation, meaning all scope 1 and 2 emissions, and all significant scope 3 emissions, to ensure consistency between the targets and the inventory boundaries.

E1-4-34

The anticipated decarbonisation levers and their respective contributions to achieving the GHG emission reduction targets are outlined in the table given below. Through a combination of strategies, including improvements in energy efficiency, fuel switching and increased utilization of renewable energy, we aspire to meet our GHG emission reduction targets, contributing to a greener and more sustainable future.

From 2030, target values will be set after every 5-year period thereafter.

The expected decarbonisation levels and their contributions are as follows:

The SSP1-2.6 and IEA NZE scenarios have significantly influenced Mowi's decarbonisation strategy, providing a roadmap for aligning Mowi's actions with global sustainability targets including climate targets aligned with 1.5°C.

The SSP1-2.6 scenario emphasises the need for significant emissions reductions across all sectors, with a focus on sustainable practices, technological innovations, and regulatory support. This pathway assumes a global shift toward carbon-neutral technologies, with a reduction in global CO2 emissions of 50% by 2050 compared to 2010 levels. Mowi's actions, such as reducing logistics emissions through shifts in freight volumes (from whole fish to fillets) and adopting dry ice technology, are consistent with these assumptions. Specifically, the scenario assumes that by 2030, 60% of global transport will be decarbonized through cleaner technologies, encouraging Mowi's shift toward greener fuels in road transport and sea freight. Mowi's move to reduce air freight emissions by purchasing SAF certificates is also aligned with the IEA NZE scenario, which predicts that SAF will contribute to decarbonising 10% of global aviation fuel demand by 2030. Both scenarios guide Mowi in reducing logistics emissions in line with the anticipated regulatory changes and technological advancements.

Similarly, the IEA NZE scenario, with its specific focus on achieving net-zero emissions by 2050, highlights the need for technological breakthroughs, cleaner energy sources, and systemic changes in sectors such as transport and food production. The IEA NZE scenario outlines a 70% reduction in transport emissions by 2030 and mandates that 50% of new vehicles must be electric by 2035. This ambitious decarbonisation target aligns with Mowi's actions, such as shifting to hybrid or electrified vessels for farming operations, which supports the scenario's vision of a global fleet that transitions to zero-emission vessels by 2040. Furthermore, the SSP1-2.6 scenario assumes that policies like the EURO7 emissions standards will enforce a 15% reduction in CO2 emissions from heavyduty vehicles by 2025 and a 30% reduction by 2030, reinforcing Mowi's move to procure greener fuels for its road transport fleet. Mowi's engagement with fish feed suppliers to improve land management practices is similarly aligned with these scenarios' emphasis on reducing emissions from agricultural and supply chain activities, a key area where both scenarios expect a 25% reduction in emissions from food systems by 2030.

By leveraging these scenario-based assumptions, Mowi is strategically positioning itself to meet the sustainability and decarbonisation goals outlined in both the SSP1-2.6 and IEA NZE pathways.

Baseline value representativeness

Mowi has selected 2019 as the baseline year as it represents our three business areas, Feed, Farming and Sales & Marketing in full operation.

This provides a stable and reliable benchmark for measuring emissions reductions and progress towards targets. If and when a merger and/or acquisition takes place after the baseline year, we apply the SBTi recalculation criteria and adjust baseline values following the GHG Protocol guidance to include the full year of operations of the new entity from the baseline year and forward.

In case of a necessary change in the baseline year or value due to major operational changes, Mowi will transparently report how this affects the target, its achievement, and progress representation.

For future target settings, Mowi will ensure that the base year selected does not precede the first reporting year of the new target period by more than 3 years, maintaining comparability and relevance.

Energy consumption and mix

As part of our commitment to transparency and adherence to global sustainability standards, we present the detailed breakdown of our energy consumption and mix. In 2024, Mowi undertook a series of initiatives aimed at optimizing our energy consumption and diversifying our energy mix to include a higher proportion of renewable sources.

Detailed breakdown of energy consumption

Total energy consumption for the group is 1 018 364 MWh.

(a) Fossil sources

Our energy consumption from fossil sources remains a significant part of our energy mix, with 694 589 MWh. The share of fossil sources on total energy consumption is 68%. This category includes energy derived from non-renewable resources. In 2024, we have continued with our programs to reduce our dependency on these sources.

(b) Nuclear sources

The share of nuclear energy as a component of our energy mix is 20 068 MWh, i.e. only 2%.

(c) Renewable sources

In 2024, we ramped up our consumption of renewable energy, and the total share of renewable sources is 30%, which is disaggregated into the following sub-categories:

Fuel Consumption for Renewable Sources: This includes energy derived from biomass, biofuels, biogas, and hydrogen from renewable sources, and adds up to 1 664 MWh. We are investing in research and development to increase the efficiency and sustainability of these renewable fuels.

  • Purchased or Acquired Renewable Energy: This category encompasses the renewable energy we purchase in the form of electricity, heat, steam, and cooling. The total amount was 293 046 MWh in 2024. We are actively working to increase the proportion of purchased renewable energy in our energy mix.
  • Self-Generated Non-Fuel Renewable Energy: This refers to the renewable energy we generate ourselves, excluding fuelbased sources. From the solar panels within our facilities we generated 8 997 MWh in 2024.

Disaggregation of fossil source consumption in high climate impact sectors

This detailed breakdown below helps us to pinpoint areas where we can make the most significant improvements in reducing our carbon footprint.

  • Coal and Coal Products: not used as a direct source of energy.
  • Crude Oil and Petroleum Products: This category includes energy derived from oil and its by-products, and stands for 389 454 MWh. We are exploring alternatives to these products, focusing on increasing energy efficiency and reducing emissions.
  • Natural Gas: Consumption from natural gas was 141 997 MWh. As a cleaner-burning fossil fuel, natural gas forms a transitional component in our journey towards a more sustainable energy mix. We are optimizing our natural gas consumption to balance energy needs and environmental concerns.

Purchased or Acquired Fossil Energy: This refers to the energy we purchase from fossil sources in the form of electricity, heat, steam, and cooling. In 2024, the consumption was 163 139 MWh. We are working to reduce our reliance on purchased fossil energy by increasing our consumption of renewable energy.

Disaggregation of energy production

The detailed breakdown below shows our energy production, highlighting our efforts to increase the share of renewable energy in our production mix.

  • Non-Renewable Energy Production: This category includes energy produced from fossil sources. We don't have any energy production from fossil fuels.
  • Renewable Energy Production: This category includes energy produced from renewable sources, both fuel-based and non-fuel-based. In 2024, we increased our renewable energy production, focusing on solar sources, as part of our commitment to a greener future. The total renewable energy production for the year 2024 was 8 997 MWh.

Energy intensity based on revenue

Energy intensity is a metric that helps us understand the energy efficiency of our operations. It is calculated as the total energy consumption (in MWh) per unit of revenue generated (in EUR). The "Energy Intensity Calculation" is based on 1 018 364 MWh, indicating the cumulative energy utilized across our operations. This is compared with the revenue generated from these sectors, amounting to EUR 5 604 million. Consequently, the energy intensity, is 0.00018 (0.00017) MWh/EUR or 18 173 MWh/million EUR. This corresponds to an increase of energy intensity per revenue of 6% compared to 2023.

Energy intensity in high climate impact sectors

Our activities fall under the following Norwegian NACE codes:

  • iisc: 03.211: Production of fish and shellfish in marine aquaculture
  • iiisc: 03.222: Production of fry and juveniles in freshwater aquaculture
  • iiiisc: 10.209: Processing and preserving of fish and fish products.

All three of these sectors falls under the ESRS high climate impact sectors, in section A which is for agriculture, forestry and fishing/ aquaculture, and in section C for manufacturing/industry.

Gross scopes 1, 2, 3 and total GHG emissions

Mowi conducts a thorough examination of its emissions under three categories:

  • Scope 1: This pertains to emissions from sources under Mowi's operational control from fuels, refrigerants, and stationary combustion. All greenhouse gases are covered.
  • Scope 2: This covers emissions resulting from purchased electricity and heat in all our facilities and operations. All greenhouse gases are covered.
  • Scope 3: This looks into emissions from activities in our upstream and downstream value chain. Primary activities are purchased raw materials and transportation of products. All other relevant categories of emissions like business travel, waste treatments and services are also included, covering all relevant greenhouse gases.

Mowi aligns these emission metrics with its climate-centric strategy and risk-management process, adhering to the GHG Protocol's accounting standards (GHG Protocol Corporate Standard (version 2004); GHG Protocol Scope 2 guidance (2015); GHG Protocol Corporate Value Chain (Scope 3) Accounting and Reporting guidance (Version 2011). In 2023, Mowi incorporated the new draft guidance from the GHG Protocol on emissions from the land sector to enhance our implementation of the emission reduction target for FLAG emissions (GHG Protocol Land Sector & Removals Guidance – Pilot Testing and Review, Draft (2022).

Our assumptions included the use of regional emission factors for electricity consumption. Additional GHGs like PFCs from our manufacturing processes were also included. We used the latest IPCC GWP values for calculating CO2eq. (E1-6-AR 39-(b))

In our commitment to transparency and accountability, we updated our science based targets in 2024 to align with the 1.5°C trajectory. By 2030, we're determined to reduce our Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 51% from the 2019 levels. Our strategies for achieving this include:

  • Increasing the connection of seawater sites to land power and installation of hybrid energy systems
  • Increasing the purchase of renewable electricity
  • Increasing processing energy/efficiency

We assess our carbon footprint based on the GHG Protocol, a globally accepted framework for calculating and documenting GHG emissions. Our reports cover all three categories defined by the protocol: Scope 1 (direct emissions from owned sources), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased electricity), and Scope 3 (indirect emissions related with our supply chain).

Mowi's total GHG emissions (scope 1, 2 and 3) were 2 477 798 tonnes CO2e in 2024 which is 4.4% lower than total emissions in reference year of 2019 (2 590 994 tonnes CO2e). Compared with 2023, total group emissions (scope 1, 2 and 3; market based) increased 4.6%, mainly driven by a 5.6% increase in scope 3

emissions (13.1% increase in industry related scope 3 emissions and -13.7% in FLAG related scope 3 emissions) while scope 1 and 2 decreased by 5% (vs 2023) and 39% (vs 2019). For Mowi, emissions intensity remained stable at 4.94 tonnes CO2e/tonne biomass harvested in 2024.

Scope 1 and 2 emissions

As outlined by the GHG Protocol, scope 1 emissions are direct emissions stemming from sources that a company owns or has control over. This includes emissions from farming, feed and processing operations. Our direct emissions include greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4 ), and refrigerants like hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and perfluorocarbons (PFCs), resulting from the combustion of fuels, stationary combustion activities, and our farming practices and manufacturing processes.

According to the GHG Protocol, scope 2 emissions refer to indirect emissions resulting from the generation of energy bought from utility providers. Currently, our entire scope 2 energy consumption is from electricity. To determine our scope 2 emissions, we apply both the location- and market-based approach.

Mowi's GHG emissions (scope 1 and 2, market based) decreased by 5%, from 233 663 tonnes CO2e in 2023 to 221 979 tonnes CO2e in 2024 (Feed: 20 581 tonnes CO2e, Farming: 168 069 tonnes CO2e, Sales & Marketing: 33 330 tonnes CO2e). Compared with 2019, Mowi's scope 1 and 2 emissions in 2024 decreased by 39%. A reduction of 11% is achieved when using location-based* scope 2 emissions. Our scope 1 emissions increased 14.9% compared to 2023 due to increased production at sea, despite the efforts done on fuel-saving initiatives and new installations of hybrid energy management systems.

Our reduction in scope 2 emissions is due to increased purchases of renewable electricity (GoO and green contracts with our electricity suppliers) and energy efficiency projects. In 2024, Mowi's renewable electricity accounted for 62% (market based) and 59% (location based) of the total electricity use.

Scope 3 Emissions

The GHG Protocol categorizes scope 3 emissions as those indirect emissions not covered by scope 2, which arise within a company's value chain. Scope 3 emissions are a consequence of the activities of the company that occur from sources not owned or controlled by the company. Categories that were assessed as relevant for Mowi Group were included in scope 3 emissions; namely purchased goods and services, fuel and energy-related activities, upstream transportation and distribution, waste generated in operations, business travel, employee commuting, downstream transportation and distribution and EoL of sold products.

Total scope 3 emissions (i.e. industry and FLAG) increased 1.2% from our reference year (2019) from 2 228 873 tonnes CO2e in 2019 to 2 255 818 tonnes CO2e in 2024. When compared with 2023, total scope 3 increased from 2 135 209 tonnes CO2e in 2023 to 2 255 818 tonnes CO2e in 2024, a 5.6% increase. Within scope 3, industry related scope 3 emissions increased from 1 540 601 tonnes CO2e in 2023 to 1 742 469 tonnes CO2e in 2024 (13% increase). FLAG emissions decreased from 594 608 tonnes CO2e in 2023 to

Scope 3 non-FLAG

513 349 tonnes CO2e in 2023 (14% decrease) and 37% compared with our reference year (819 229 tonnes CO2e in 2019). The reduction in FLAG emissions since 2019 is related with the selection of feed raw materials, particularly vegetable feed raw materials with lower GHG emissions and improved primary data from key vegetable feed raw materials such as Soy Protein Concentrate.

In 2024, we have calculated and audited our scope 3 emissions in connection with sourcing feed raw materials for our feed business area (following the FLAG guidance.) We have also applied guidance from LCA experts and LCA studies to improve primary data use. Sourcing and transportation of feed raw materials by Mowi Feed (including energy/industry and FLAG emissions) resulted in 1 014 335 tonnes of CO2e in 2024 (843 946) or 1.74 (1.60) kg CO2e/kg feed produced. The absolute GHG emissions related to sourcing of feed raw materials increased in 2024 due to increased feed production.

Mowi's climate mitigation actions aligned with GHG emissions reduction targets Mowi's climate mitigation actions aligned with GHG emissions reduction targets

In 2024, we have also calculated Mowi's scope 3 emissions and compared them with equivalent emissions in 2023 and our reference year of 2019. Scope 3 emissions are a consequence of

Scope 1 & 2 Scope 1 & 2

the activities of the company that occur from sources not owned or controlled by the company. Categories that were assessed as relevant for Mowi Group were included in scope 3 emissions; namely purchased goods and services, fuel and energy-related activities, upstream transportation and distribution, waste generated in operations, business travel and downstream transportation and distribution. 58% of scope 3 emissions related to feed, both the purchase of feed from external parties and the sourcing of feed raw materials for Mowi Feed, followed by 29% related to downstream transportation. Air freight, road, sea and train transport accounted for 17%, 4%, 0,2% and 0%, respectively, of total scope 3 emissions. In 2024, there has been no changes to reporting boundaries as compared to 2023.

Reporting periods for GHG Emissions

Mowi ensures the use of the most recent data for accuracy and all reporting are to be consistent with our financial reporting period including external data used. Mowi will update it's figures to reflect significant events, such as new acquisitions, that might impact our emission profiles.

  • Biogenic emissions refer to CO2 emissions released during the combustion or bio-degradation of biomass. Biomass typically includes organic materials like wood, agricultural residues, and biofuels.
  • Biogenic CO2 emissions must be reported separately from other Scope 1 GHG emissions. This distinction is crucial because biogenic CO2 is part of the natural carbon cycle, whereas CO2 from fossil sources adds on to the overall concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, hence contributing to climate change.
  • While biogenic CO2 is reported separately, emissions of other types of GHGs resulting from the use of biomass (such as CH4 and N2O) should be included in the total Scope 1 GHG emissions.
  • Mowi's total Scope 1 emissions for 2024 are reported as 139 739 metric tonnes of CO2, including biogenic emissions.
  • The biogenic emissions of CO2 from the combustion or biodegradation of biomass included in Scope 1 GHG emissions is 588 tCO2e. This figure is derived from our biomass consumption data and relevant conversion factors.
  • In addition to biogenic CO2, any emissions of CH4 and N2O from the combustion or degradation of biomass are included in Mowi's total Scope 1 emissions. This ensures a comprehensive accounting of all GHG emissions associated with biomass use.

Preparation of information on Gross Scope 2 GHG emissions

  • Approximately 62% of our Scope 2 GHG emissions are linked to contractual instruments. This reflects our commitment to sourcing energy from more sustainable and renewable sources.
  • Around 2% of our market-based Scope 2 GHG emissions were associated with purchased electricity bundled with instruments, like PPAs and installation of solar panels at our own plants.
  • Around 60% of our Scope 2 emissions were associated with unbundled energy attribute claims. This percentage indicates our investment in purchasing energy attributes separately from the physical energy flow. For unbundled energy attribute claims, the primary type of contractual instrument used in 2024 was Guarantees of Origin (GoOs), they represent 45% of the total. These choices were based on availability, cost-effectiveness, and alignment with our sustainability goals.

In 2024, Mowi did not include biogenic emissions from the combustion or biodegradation of biomass in our Scope 2 GHG emissions calculations. Our Scope 2 emissions are predominantly from purchased electricity, where the biogenic component is minimal and not directly controlled by Mowi.

Biogenic emissions are included in FLAG emissions related with Mowi Feed and included in category 1 of scope 3 emissions. For these and other categories in Scope 3, biogenic emissions are incorporated in emission factor calculations. They are not split out as separated biogenic scope 3 emissions, as data is not currently available and reliable.

We followed the GHG Protocol Corporate Value Chain Standard to account for all relevant Scope 3 emissions, ensuring comprehensive coverage and accuracy. Each of the 15 Scope 3 categories were evaluated. Major contributors included Purchased goods and services, Downstream transportation and distribution and Fuel and energy-related activities.

Purchased goods and services, Downstream transportation and distribution, and Fuel and energy-related activities, accounting for 1 527 601 tons, 657 481 tons and 50 932 tons of CO2eq, are the most significant contributors.

The scope 3 GHG emission criteria was considered to be as follows: Financial spend (High), Influence (Moderate), Transition Risks and Opportunities (Low), Stakeholder views (Moderate).

We utilized specific supplier-specific or activity-based average emission factors for each category to ensure accurate estimations. We update our Scope 3 emissions inventory annually and plan a comprehensive review after any significant operational change.

In 2024, 100% of our Scope 3 GHG emissions were calculated using primary data. This data was predominantly sourced directly from our key suppliers and logistic partners, ensuring a higher degree of accuracy and reliability in our emissions reporting.

Our Scope 3 emissions encompass all relevant activities from raw material acquisition to end-of-life treatment of our products. For purchased goods and services, we used a mix of supplier-specific and activity-based approach, calculating emissions based on purchased volumes of raw materials and packaging with emission factors from suppliers and internationally recognized databases. For upstream and downstream transportation, we calculated emissions based on the distance and mode of transport, using emission factors from DEFRA (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs). Business travel emissions were estimated based on travel data provided by our corporate travel agency, utilizing average emission factors for different modes of travel. Emissions from employee commuting and End-of-Life of sold products were calculated using number of FTE and volumes of sold products together with national statistics per country.

Justification for Exclusions: Mowi excludes emissions from Capital Goods and Investments (Scope 3 categories 2 and 15) from our GHG emissions inventory based on estimated calculations that demonstrate these categories are insignificant and have a minimal influence on our overall emissions profile. Our analysis provides sufficient evidence for exclusion, indicating that the emissions associated with these categories do not materially impact our sustainability goals or reporting accuracy. This approach allows us to focus on the most relevant and impactful areas of our emissions, ensuring our efforts are aligned with our commitment to effective climate action. We believe this exclusion provides a more accurate representation of our current operational impact.

Screening of assets & activities

Freshwater represents a nature dependency for Mowi, as we need available freshwater volumes that meet quality requirements for both our direct production and upstream supply chain activities:

  • directly in the initial stages of farming to produce smolts prior to sea transfer. Mowi continues to invest where possible to improve water use efficiency through technological solutions (such as Recirculating Aquaculture Systems – RAS) at our freshwater farming sites.
  • directly at our processing plants to keep high hygienic standards, and
  • indirectly from the use of agricultural feed raw materials. Mowi uses certification schemes (e.g ProTerra), where available, to ensure agricultural raw materials are sourced from areas where water management is considered. In addition, Mowi engages directly with key vegetable feed raw material suppliers to encourage work and provide training on regenerative agriculture.

Similarly to what occurs in the wild, farmed-raised salmon spend the initial phase of production growing in freshwater. Therefore, the majority (99%) of freshwater withdrawal in our business comes from the initial life stage of production of salmon. Although we do not farm in countries with freshwater scarcity, we still focus our efforts and resources on freshwater efficiency at our freshwater farming units, feed and processing plants.

All of our facilities, as well as our feed supply chain (vegetable feed raw materials specifically), are assessed annually using the Water Risk Assessment tool Aqueduct version 4.0 to evaluate overall water risk, and ensure responsible management of water resources in our areas of operation. The water risk framework follows a composite index approach and allows multiple water-related risks to be combined into comprehensive aggregate scores. Overall Water Risk measures all water-related risks, by aggregating all selected indicators from the Physical Risk Quantity, Physical Risk Quality and Regulatory and Reputational Risk categories. Higher values indicate higher water risk. This index consists of a wastewater discharge treatment index and a baseline water stress index, referring to the proportion between total water withdrawals and available renewable surface and groundwater supplies. All suppliers of vegetable feed raw materials were also assessed using the same Aqueduct tool, and the more granular Mowi survey if highlighted as high risk, which addresses good agricultural practices, including water stewardship, in more detail.

Water scarcity is a nature-linked dependency. For Mowi's direct operations, potential freshwater-related risks are connected to sites located in areas of high or extremely high risk of water stress. Our findings showed that only four of our processing facilities operate in areas of high water scarcity, whilst none of our farming operations do. The plants are located in Belgium, Shanghai and Vietnam, where the physical risk of limited available water resources can potentially impact production by halting or reducing processing activities in

the short-medium term. Despite this risk, none of our processing facilities have recorded any actual impacts due to water scarcity during 2024.

Freshwater is withdrawn to be used in our direct operations but the Group's actual water consumption is negligible, as water withdrawn for farming operations is returned to its source in almost its entirety (in flow-through systems) or is recycled (in recirculating aquaculture systems). None of our farming operations are operated in areas of water risk. Having a low, and potentially lower water consumption compared to other protein producers, could lead to future opportunities for increased business performance, due to product recognition as sustainable from a water stewardship perspective.

By operating in the marine environment, farming an aquatic species and using marine feed raw materials means that Mowi has a dependency on marine resources. Risks are related to sourcing of marine raw material for salmon feed, with fish meal (FM) and fish oil (FO) important sources of key nutrients. High quality feed is essential for ensuring the best possible fish health and performance, but threats to wild fish stocks such as climate change and overexploitation could lead to reduced availability of such main ingredients, resulting in financial risks for Mowi.

Opportunities for Mowi related to marine resources are linked with improved resource efficiency and contribution to increase the availability of less natural-resource intensive raw materials, such as vegetable ingredients produced by regenerative agriculture practices. There are also opportunities to support sustainable fisheries. Through improved use of trimmings and continued work to diversify our feed raw material basket and reduce single-ingredient dependency through emerging feed raw materials, we believe there is opportunity for increased sustainable feed production in the future. Mowi aims to produce robust, sustainable, high quality salmon using the widest available spectrum of raw materials in the most efficient way. Mowi's in-house R&D activities are strongly focused on finding and developing a diverse and effective raw material pallet that optimises salmon health, well-being and quality using the most sustainable options wherever possible. As such, emerging feed raw materials play an important role to increase raw material flexibility.

Stakeholder consultations

All of Mowi's processing plants assessed to be located in the high overall water risk category are consulted as a minimum on a quarterly basis, in order to review and, if necessary, enhance each facility's water saving initiatives or strategies in line with Mowi's targets to reduce water withdrawal at these locations. These reviews also allow an opportunity to assess any actual impacts of water scarcity, however, to date none have been recorded.

To assess freshwater risk within our supply chain, Mowi evaluate the average risk for manufacturers in regards to both access to sanitation and baseline water stress, as mentioned above. Our suppliers of vegetable feed raw materials are asked to complete Mowi's water risk assessment to clarify their full risk profile and understand their actions to minimise risks linked with water use, such as water infrastructures, sustainable water withdrawal, protection from pollution, conserving buffer zones and proper irrigation. In this way we make clear that suppliers are expected to use water responsibly. We also ask these suppliers to have a water use reduction target (this is done through our supplier relationship management platform). If vegetable feed raw materials are rated in the medium or high risk under Mowi's water risk assessment we initiate an engagement programme with those specific suppliers.

Materiality assessment on water and marine resources using the LEAP approach Phase 1: Locate

Interface with nature in operations and value chain Our seawater farming sites are located within coastal regions, and interact directly with marine ecosystems, whilst our freshwater farming sites utilise freshwater for the initial life stage of salmon production. Additionally, our processing facilities rely on freshwater resources to maintain high hygiene standards, making us closely intertwined with freshwater resources. Our suppliers, primarily those associated with vegetable raw feed material production, rely on freshwater as a resource for successful growth and processing. Our external feed producers also rely on marine resources when utilising marine feed raw materials.

Phase 2: Evaluate dependencies and impacts Dependencies

Both our farming and processing entities are heavily dependent on consistent freshwater water supply quality and quantity. We are also dependent on marine resources for feed ingredients, although this is reduced through methods outlined in the following opportunities section.

Impacts

Our wastewater discharge, if not treated properly, can impact freshwater quality.

Phase 3: Assess material risks and opportunities Risks

Potential water scarcity in certain operational regions can disrupt our production. Regulatory penalties related to freshwater discharge or marine pollution can also impact our financial health. Risks are also associated with sourcing of marine materials in salmon feed, including fish meal and fish oil.

Opportunities

Whilst freshwater is withdrawn for our direct operations, the Group's actual water consumption is negligible. We can continue to enhance this by investing in further water recycling and withdrawal reduction to reduce our dependency on freshwater sources. Having a low, and potentially lower, water consumption compared to other protein producers could lead to future opportunities for increased business performance, due to product recognition as sustainable from a water stewardship perspective. In relation to marine feed ingredients, Mowi uses sustainably sourced marine raw materials and it actively working towards developing emerging feed raw materials. In addition, as a processor of salmon, Mowi Nutrition is an active contributor of salmon by-products to the supply chain. Our objective is to increase the proportion of our non-food by-products entering the market in the form of fishmeal and fish oil. These ingredients are highly suited for use in non-salmon aquaculture and in pet feed applications where forage fish are often used today.

More information on risks and opportunities related with freshwater stewardship is provided in our CDP water report.

Phase 4: Prepare and report results of the materiality assessment

Findings

Our assessment revealed that none of our assets operate in areas of high risk, with only 4 of our processing plants (9.4% based on freshwater withdrawal volumes) located in water-stressed regions. Of our vegetable feed raw material manufacturers, 2 within India were found to be high risk with regards to average water risk, considering both access to sanitation and baseline water stress, and were subjected to a subsequent, more granular Mowi survey to best understand the risks associated. All suppliers were subsequently accepted, based on more specific understanding of each company and their actualised risks, which were acceptably low. Water storage is not material for Mowi's operations, or within our supply chain, with consumption also negligible within Mowi's direct operations. Freshwater withdrawal and wastewater discharge treatment are deemed to be the key water management topics for focus.

Actions

We have initiated a water withdrawal intensity reduction target, which aims to reduce our water withdrawal intensity (m3 /tonne production). Topics for attention identified by Mowi to be linked with freshwater and marine resources include: Water risk monitoring, freshwater efficiency projects, supplier water risk assessment, certified marine feed ingredients, increase of trimmings, recapturing marine resources, eliminating IUU catches and eliminating red listed species.

Management of impacts, risks and opportunities

Policies related to water and marine resources

Mowi has a strong focus on responsible water and marine resource management for the benefit of both the environment and our business operations. Mowi has adopted a policy framework to manage the material impacts, risks, and opportunities related to water and marine resources, presented below. This framework has been formulated in accordance with ESRS 2 MDR-P policies pertaining to material sustainability matters. Mowi's Freshwater Use Policy and Sustainable Feed/Emerging Raw Feed Material Policies are outlined in full detail within the Board of Directors Report, within the specific section on MDR-P.

(a) Water management

Mowi has policies to address water management, the use and sourcing of water and marine resources in its own operations, and water treatment.

Our Freshwater Use and Wastewater Discharge Policy guides all of our business units, including Mowi's feed supply chain, to commit to key actions on freshwater use stewardship, with a focus on responsible freshwater withdrawal.

Objective of the policy: Effectively and efficiently manage freshwater use and wastewater discharge, and work to responsibly manage our operations to reduce associated risks.

The Mowi Freshwater Use and Wastewater Discharge Policy outlines the company's commitment to manage freshwater use and wastewater discharge responsibly, particularly in areas assessed to have high water scarcity risk. Freshwater is a nature dependency for Mowi within both direct production and upstream supply chain activities, although consumption is negligible. The policy outlines how risks and opportunities are managed and optimised within Mowi's own operations, for example through water-saving initiatives and investment in Recirculating Aquaculture Systems, and the company's supply chain, for example through sustainable feed ingredient sources. Steps to achieve a reduction of water withdrawal intensity at Mowi's assets in areas of high water scarcity risk are outlined, with a view to reducing this wherever possible. Opportunities linked with freshwater use are also identified, namely the opportunity that seafood consumption offers as a replacement of land animal proteins which have a higher freshwater use dependency. Our processes for monitoring water stewardship take place every quarter and include internal reporting on freshwater withdrawal and discharge. We perform yearly risk assessments on our supply chain and own assets based on global standards such as the Aqueduct tool. Mowi also reports yearly to CDP water. Our Chief Sustainability Officer has the main responsibility for the implementation of this policy.

There are a number of further specific items of focus, listed within the policy and applicable across all business areas of Mowi, as relevant:

  • Prioritise technology (such as RAS) in our smolt and postsmolt production to reduce the dependency of freshwater at the initial stages of salmon farming.
  • Work towards an improved efficiency of freshwater use at our processing sites, without compromising the high standards of hygiene we are committed to, by:
  • developing water efficiency plans at our processing plants.
  • stimulating innovative solutions to reduce water withdrawal or reuse e.g. packaging to promote ice reduction.
  • sharing solutions and efficiency improvement plans amongst business units.
  • reporting data on freshwater use as requested in the sustainability reporting.
  • Ensure that Mowi's operations do not compromise the right of local communities to access water.
  • Treat wastewater effectively following, as a minimum, national regulation.
  • Raise awareness on effective water stewardship by supporting our employees to understand this policy.
  • Engage with vegetable feed raw material suppliers to understand their water risk profile and actions to reduce risk.

Work in partnerships to optimise freshwater use efficiency. Over the last years, Mowi has participated in several research projects investigating closed-containment aquaculture systems. The main goal has been to develop technological and biological innovations that will make closed systems a reliable and economically viable technology.

Our Sustainable Sourcing Feed Policy includes elements of good agricultural practices which also address water use and wastewater discharge.

Objective of the Policy: Ensure sourcing of sustainable feed ingredients to secure the best possible fish health and performance, whilst considering environmental footprint and social responsibility.

Mowi's Policy on Sustainable Salmon Feed highlights the importance of prioritising the sourcing of sustainable feed ingredients, and striving to utilise feed as efficiently as possible at our fish farms, to remain at the forefront of environmental responsibility. This policy outlines the company's commitments and steps to ensure this is achieved, and applies to all feed purchased externally, as well as the feed Mowi produces. Suppliers of feed materials are expected to comply with Mowi's Code of Conduct and be assessed by Mowi's Supplier Relationship Management Tool. A risk assessment relating to price increase, nutritional quality, certification, climate impact, and reputation of ingredients and products based on Mowi's feed composition for a 5 year timeline is provided, including fish meal, fish oil, and soy protein concentrate. A series of commitments within both Mowi's own operations, and our supply chain are outlined in the policy to demonstrate how this shall be achieved, including ingredient traceability, diversification and certification. Opportunities are also identified linked with the use of trimmings, emerging feed raw materials and upcycling by-products originating from the salmon processing. Our process for monitoring compliance with our feed policy is in place through contracts with suppliers and metrics being followed on a yearly basis. Mowi reports on sustainable feed use aligned with standards such as definitions provided by the Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC). Our Chief Operational Officer Feed together with our Chief Sustainability Officer has the main responsibility for the implementation of this policy.

The sourcing and use of marine resources is covered as well in our Emerging Feed Raw Materials Policy.

Objective of the Policy: Identify and select emerging feed raw materials for inclusion in our salmon feed.

The Mowi Emerging Feed Raw Materials Policy describes the company's focus on R&D activities to find and develop a diverse and effective raw material pallet to optimise salmon health, well-being and quality whilst using the most sustainable options wherever possible. These emerging materials, defined as having potential within feed composition but requiring further development before full commercialisation, will act to increase raw material flexibility whilst safeguarding against dependence on any specific raw material sources. The policy describes key categories used in Mowi's risk assessment for selection of emerging feed raw materials: Nutritional value, price competitiveness, certification, climate impact, market readiness/availability/scalability, reputation and market acceptance. Opportunities are also identified as

emerging feed raw materials can originate from by-products of other commercial products. This policy is key for both our own feed production plants, and any externally produced feed bought by Mowi to supplement our own production. Suppliers of emerging feed materials are expected to comply with Mowi's Code of Conduct and be assessed by Mowi's Relationship Management Tool. Mowi reports on the use of emerging feed raw materials every year. Our Chief Operational Officer Feed together with our Chief Sustainability Officer has the main responsibility for the implementation of this policy.

This policy for sustainable feed ingredients outlines our commitments and steps to ensure this is achieved, and applies to all feed purchased externally, as well as the feed Mowi produces. The policies ensures Mowi minimises its impacts on biodiversity and natural capital by prioritising fishmeal and oil that are responsibly produced according to the MarinTrust Standard and/or produced from fish derived from an MSC (Marine Stewardship Council) certified sustainable fishery and/or achieve Fish Source scores ≥ 6 in all categories. If volumes as specified above are unavailable, material can be sourced from fisheries that are engaged in timebound fishery improvement projects (FIPs) for example those registered with Fishery Progress and/or that are recognised by the MarinTrust and/or the MSC. The emerging feed raw material policy addresses our strategy to identify and select emerging feed raw materials in our salmon feed, with a target of 10-15% inclusion of emerging feed raw materials by 2030.

(b) Product and service design

Our R&D and Technical teams continuously engage with suppliers to improve equipment efficiency overall, including in view of addressing water-related issues and the preservation of marine resources. This is covered within our Freshwater Use Policy, particularly as outlined within actions 1 and 2 in section (a) above. Mowi's feed and purchasing departments continuously works to align with preservation of marine resources through adherence with our Sustainable Feed policy and Emerging Feed Raw Materials Policies, with a focus on responsible feed ingredient sourcing, and diversification of materials relied upon.

(c) Reduction in water consumption

Water consumption is not considered material to Mowi, as the volumes are negligible. Rather, in our direct operations, we have a focus on the reduction of water withdrawal, especially in highrisk areas. As mentioned in part (b) above, Mowi have a strong focus on innovation to drive this, with some examples provided in the upcoming Overview of Actions and Resources section. These actions are aligned with, and driven by, Mowi's target for 10% reduction in water intensity at high overall water stress assets by 2025, in particular the 4 processing plants assessed as such for 2024, as required by our Freshwater Use Policy.

With regards to our supply chain, as mentioned above, Mowi expose all raw feed materials to an assessment to ensure they align with responsible freshwater use, as driven by our Sustainable Feed Policy.

Operations in high-water stress areas

Mowi's Freshwater Use Policy addresses a commitment to reduce material water withdrawal in areas of high water risk, rather than

consumption, as mentioned just above. The target on withdrawal intensity reduction is explicitly outlined within this policy, with all Mowi's assets being in scope, but only four processing plants falling into a high risk profile, following Aqueduct analysis.

The percentage of water withdrawal from areas classified as high overall water stress (using Aqueduct, water quality assessment), is only 0.08% for Mowi Group, showing a slight decrease from 2023 (0.09%) (318 641 m3 , all sourced from surface water). These areas are all part of our Sales & Marketing operations, more specifically from 4 processing plants located in China, Vietnam and two in Belgium. None of the water used in our Feed and Farming operations originate from areas of water scarcity.

Sustainable oceans and seas

Beyond freshwater resources, Mowi recognises the value of oceans and seas. We have adopted policies (e.g. our Biodiversity Policy and Framework, Sustainable Feed Policy, and Human-Wildlife Interactions Policy) that promote sustainable practices, ensuring that our operations do not negatively impact marine ecosystems. We are also part of global partnerships such as the UN Global Compact, Ocean Panel, and Global Sustainability Seafood Initiative, all contributing to sustainable ocean use. Mowi considers that their operations borrow ocean space to produce food, with no permanent disturbance to nature, ensured by our benthic monitoring programmes globally.

E3-2

Actions and resources

As required by ESRS 2 MDR-A, Mowi outline below, as well as an overview provided in the Board of Directors report, section MDR-A, our actions and commitments toward the sustainable utilisation of water and marine resources. Our overarching goal is to minimise our footprint on these invaluable resources and to contribute to their restoration and conservation.

Mowi's own operations focus conservation efforts on reducing water withdrawal intensity at plants in water stress areas, but the overall aim is for continuous improvement in freshwater use efficiency at all our processing plants, without compromising the high standards of hygiene we are committed to. We also continue to invest where possible to improve water use efficiency through technological innovations at our freshwater farming sites.

As highlighted above, during 2024 there have been a number of specific items of focus, outlined under our Detailed Policies, section (a) Water Management. Several specific water-saving initiatives were implemented at our processing plants in 2024. Mowi Bruges invested in installation of throttle valves to reduce water release in the pin-bone machine, alongside ceasing use of water to melt used ice, instead just putting ice in containers outside to melt with the outside temperature. Mowi Shanghai have implemented a new management regime to aid water reduction, including flow control of their washing guns, reduced water withdrawal for washing, and adapted cleaning regimes featuring increased mechanical cleaning. Mowi Lebork in Poland have reduced water use through the purchasing of a new, more fuel-efficient basket washer in early 2024. A number of Mowi's processing plants have also achieved

a significant reduction in freshwater consumption during 2024 through initiatives to reduce ice use in EPS boxes for transport to customers, e.g. at our Blar Mhor plant in Scotland and Eggesbønes in Norway. Several processing plants have also examined operating strategies, and reduced water use through schemes such as switching off all related water during team breaks, or altering shift patterns.

Mowi follows wastewater discharge limits (discharge volume and quality) per national regulations. All our processing plants discharging wastewater to freshwater do it through third-party wastewater treatment plants where regulatory limits are set on water quality parameters (these are set by national environmental governmental agencies).

Mowi's freshwater use is audited by a third-party. We also publicly disclose our risks and opportunities related to water management via the the CDP Water Security questionnaire. Third-party certification plays a key part in Mowi's freshwater stewardship, with Mowi recognising credible aquaculture sustainability standards as those recognised by the GSSI (Global Sustainable Seafood Initiative). Global GAP, ASC and BAP have been recognised by GSSI as certification schemes that successfully completed a rigorous and transparent benchmark process. Such a process is based on FAO guidelines and standards assessing overall environmental impact of how seafood is produced.

Our marine raw materials processed from whole fish are sourced from suppliers who adhere to responsible fishery management practices and that are certified as sustainable (MSC, Marin Trust standard or similar) or part of Fisheries Improvement Projects (FIPs). We work to continuously improve the fish in-fish out (FIFO) ratio, which provides the amount of kg of wild fish (excluding trimmings) it takes to produce one kg of salmon. The species used in fish meal and fish oil production are from reduction fisheries and trimmings not used for human consumption. We are also dedicated to increase the use of fish trimmings to produce fishmeal and fish oil, in both our integrated feed production and externally sourced feed.

Mowi produces by-products such as offcuts in our processing activities which would be considered food waste if not used for other applications such as non-salmon aquaculture diets and pet food. In addition to reducing food waste, the upcycling of these by-products represent a recapture of the fishmeal and fish oil used as marine raw materials. Such feed raw materials are therefore used not only to produce our salmon but also become part of non-salmon aquaculture diets and pet food. Mowi is well positioned to capture the value of such by-products through Mowi Nutrition.

Addressing areas at water risk

As already covered in our Screening of Assets and Activities section, Mowi undertake an annual assessment of water risk across all our operational sites using the third party tool Aqueduct, to evaluate whether any of our sites are within the scope of our freshwater intensity target, previously described. This drives assets in scope to reduce water intensity (m3 /tonne of production) through equipment upgrades, innovation, and management decisions. Furthermore, as mentioned, our supply chain are assessed for responsible freshwater use, and would be rejected as suppliers if found through Mowi's targeted assessment not to fulfil our water

management criteria. During 2024, none of our suppliers had to be rejected on these grounds.

Collective actions involving other stakeholders

Responsible freshwater management in our feed supply chain

Our work towards responsible freshwater use also extends to our vegetable feed raw material suppliers.

100% of Mowi's soy sourcing is from either ProTerra, Europe Soya or Organic certified sources. These standards include good agricultural practices including nutrient and water management. Water management requirements include conservation of natural water resources and best practices for water management. In addition, soil and crop management requirements, including the use of cover crops, management of vegetation, management of crop succession and rotation, are core to the ProTerra standard.

In 2024, additional to Mowi's certification schemes that ensure agricultural raw materials are sourced from areas where water management is considered, we ran a water risk assessment using Mowi's global due diligence process for suppliers. For those suppliers rated as high-risk in our water index (consisting of a wastewater discharge treatment index and a baseline water stress index) we have developed a Mowi Environmental survey including a water risk assessment to further understanding the risk profile and the actions being taken by our suppliers on aspects related to water scarce areas, monitoring of water withdrawal, consumption and discharge as well as water risk policies, water infrastructure, sustainable water supply, the protection of water bodies from pollution by agriculture activity, and water related targets. This assessment ensures that our suppliers meet water-related requirements as part of our sustainable purchasing process, and makes clear that suppliers are expected to use water responsibly.

According to the overall water risk mapping (Aqueduct baseline water stress and access to sanitation), only 2 vegetable raw material suppliers were identified as high-risk, representing 4% of all our vegetable/raw materials suppliers in 2024. These suppliers are located in India and supply Mowi with guar protein, representing just 0.2% and 0.05% of feed materials used in Norway and the UK respectively, during 2024.

In 2024, we provided direct support and guidance to suppliers on water stewardship which included several training events with the soy protein content suppliers and also with other vegetable feed raw materials to explain what good agricultural practices mean as well as the identification of best practices to improve efficiency. We also introduced GAP as part of Mowi's environmental due diligence. These include questions related with water stewardship, wastewater management, pollution, biodiversity, GHG and other emissions and identification of specific GAP projects such as crop rotation, use of cover crops, agroforestry, soil health management, plant nutrient management, training of farmers etc. Physical climate risks such as severe drought and flooding can have an impact on the availability and price of agricultural commodities. Implementation of regenerative agriculture can help in mitigating such risks, reducing exposure to price volatility.

E3-3

Targets and metrics

Water and marine resources targets

None of our farming or feed business units are located in waterstressed areas and therefore our target is applicable to our Sales and Marketing business area only, which covers our secondary processing plants. We have four processing facilities that operate in areas with high water scarcity risk: Mowi Vietnam, Mowi Shanghai and Mowi Belgium (Ostend and Bruges). Mowi aims for a continuous improvement in water use efficiency in all our business areas. Our time-bound, science-based targets are set for our business units which are located in water-stressed areas.

By 2025

A reduction of 10% on the intensity of water withdrawal at our processing plants located in high water scarcity risk, using a reference year of 2018, or the closest fully operational year if more recent.

Our target is directed at water withdrawal, as water consumption is negligible. The KPI for this is percentage reduction in water intensity. Water intensity within our target refers to m3 /tonne of fish processed.

Every year

Comply 100% with the volume and quality regulatory limits for wastewater discharge to freshwater.

When considering wastewater discharge directly to freshwater environments (i.e. surface wastewater discharge), we follow, as a minimum, the World Bank wastewater limits for Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD), Total Nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorus (TP), where the limit is applicable to the specific geography.

In relation to using marine resources sustainably, Mowi has specific targets of:

  • 100% compliance with our sustainable feed sourcing policy, every year.
  • 100% of marine raw materials certified (Marin Trust or equivalent), 100% of soy certified and deforestation-free (Proterra or equivalent), every year
  • 100% of salmon feed suppliers are Global GAP, ASC or BAP certified by an accredited certification body (CB), every year
  • 100% traceability of feed raw material, every year.

By 2030

10-15% of our feed ingredients must come from emerging feed raw materials.

As mentioned above, these certifications also help to ensure responsible water use. Our marine raw materials processed from whole fish are sourced from suppliers who adhere to responsible fishery management practices and that are certified as sustainable (MSC, Marin Trust standard or similar) or part of Fisheries Improvement Projects (FIPs). None of our raw materials originate from illegal, unregulated and unreported (IUU) catches, or from fish species classified as endangered on the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) red list. We also work to continuously improve the fish in-fish out (FIFO) ratio, which provides the amount of kg of wild fish (excluding trimmings) it takes to produce one kg of salmon. The species used in fish meal and fish oil production are from reduction fisheries and trimmings not used for human consumption. We are also dedicated to increase the use of fish trimmings to produce fishmeal and fish oil, in both our integrated feed production and externally sourced feed. Mowi supports and closely follows the ongoing development and testing of emerging feed raw materials.

Mowi's target regarding freshwater withdrawal intensity going forward is as follows:

By 2030, a 10% reduction in freshwater withdrawal intensity (m3 / tonne of fish processed) at our processing plants located in high overall water risk (using 2024 as our new reference year). Using 2024 as our new reference year allows us to focus on the most recent year which captures the reality of our business in a more complete way.

Tracking effectiveness of policies

To establish our water targets, we run water risk scenarios at our processing plants located in high water scarcity areas. We did not identify specific national, EU or international policies, besides the overall framework of the EU green deal and the Global Biodiversity Framework, that determined our water target setting. Mowi considers our water-related target scientific based as it uses, as a basis for defining high water scarcity areas, information provided by the Aqueduct tool, developed by the Water Resource Institute. To set our water target, several internal and external stakeholders were consulted including our internal environmental experts, investors, financial institutions, environmental standard developers and our global partnerships. In regard to our 2024 results, no significant changes have taken place to our targets or metrics linked to water stewardship.

Our KPI associated with water withdrawal intensity (m3 /tonne of fish processed) at our processing plants located in high overall water risk is percentage reduction in water intensity. 2018 water intensity data at our processing plants located in high water scarcity areas are used as the baseline for assessing the target in place during 2024 (or the most recent complete year of typical production, if 2018 is not applicable). Freshwater withdrawal and discharge are reported internally on a quarterly basis by all of our processing plants, whilst a detailed freshwater survey of all our processing, farming, nutrition and feed plants is undertaken on an annual basis for public disclosure through our annual report.

KPIs relating to marine resources include origin of fish meal and fish oil, the percentage of fish meal and fish oil which is sustainably certified, percentage of trimmings used, recaptured fish-in-fish-out (FIFO; explained hereafter), and inclusion of emerging feed raw materials. Since the Fish in-Fish out concept first arose in the 2000s, technological improvements have been implemented across the entire fish meal/fish oil (FM/FO) value-chain. The recapture of FM/ FO from farmed fish takes this process a step further; we call this the Recapture FIFO (rFIFO), a metric that more accurately reflects the 'net' use of FM/FO. Mowi is able to recapture FO and FM from our Mowi Nutrition operations (in Norway and Poland). This allows us to

keep giving back into the global fund of marine ingredients – and to continue "doing more and better with less". In 2024 Mowi's rFIFO was 0.60, reflecting a clear advantage of circularity and ensuring that all value of our product is fully utilised. All of our ingredients used in salmon feed shall have a traceability system in place.

Correlation of targets

Our water withdrawal intensity target has a particular focus on areas of high water-stress. We've identified four such locations within our processing plants, and are implementing processes to reduce water withdrawal intensity at these sites, as described above. Mowi does not have a target associated with water consumption since it is assessed to be negligible. Our discharge quality targets adhering to national and the world bank guidelines ensure we are actively mitigating our risks and harnessing opportunities to foster better aquatic ecosystems. Further details are provided earlier in this section of the report.

Our target for sustainably sourced marine raw materials ensures responsible management of marine resources. For 2024, 100% of marine raw materials used as feed raw materials were sustainably sourced (either though MSC, Marin Trust of part of a FIP). The targets we have set are voluntary, deriving from our commitment to safeguarding our planet's resources.

E3-4

Water consumption performance

Water is a vital resource for Mowi's operations and the communities in which we operate. Recognising its importance, we have implemented rigorous water management systems to reduce our consumption, increase recycling and reuse, and ensure the longevity of this crucial resource. Indeed, water consumption by Mowi is negligible. In line with our commitment to transparency, we disclose information on our water consumption performance, highlighting the areas of risks, opportunities, and impacts.

Water consumption data for own operations

Total water consumption

In 2024, Mowi's total water consumption was 607 752 m3 (621 542 m3 ). This figure represents all water used across our operations, including farming, processing, feed production and nutrition. As mentioned, our primary area of interest in regards to water management is directed at withdrawal intensity, as water consumption is negligible.

Water consumption in areas at water risk

Of the total consumption, 364.6 m3 was in regions identified using Aqueduct as high-water stress areas. This is reduced in comparison with the 978.0 m3 reported in 2023. We have prioritised water stewardship in these areas by implementing water-saving technologies and recycling initiatives, with examples described in the earlier section 'Water and Marine Resources-related Actions and Implementation Resources'.

Water recycled and reused

Mowi's most modern and recent RAS facilities are operating with a percentage of recirculation varying from 95% to 99.9% and recycled 33 727 828 m3 of freshwater in 2024, an increase versus 2023 (31 068 319 m3 ). This reflects Mowi's increased investment in RAS during 2024, supporting our postsmolt development strategy.

Water stored

As disclosed in the materiality assessment results, Mowi does not store significant quantities of water at our sites, and so this metric is not material to our water resource management performance. This was verified again in 2024 through our annual freshwater survey, completed by all entities within farming, feed and processing.

Farming has been split into our freshwater production and primary processing plants. Our Sales & Marketing business area (S&M) include our secondary processing plants. *Freshwater consumption is calculated as freshwater withdrawal minus freshwater discharge. For our Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) we have assumed 1% of water consumption linked with make-up water used to compensate for evaporation. At our processing plants, consumption is linked with ice production. Our targets are therefore directed to water withdrawal as consumption is already negligible.

Contextual information regarding water consumption

Mowi's total freshwater consumption considers the combination of our freshwater farming, feed, and sales & marketing assets. A survey is completed by all of these assets on an annual basis, which captures in-depth information about freshwater withdrawal and wastewater discharge. 85% of our assets have either metered withdrawal and discharge points (i.e. measured internally), or receive detailed invoices to provide measured volumes (i.e. measured externally). 15% of these assets use estimates to complete the annual survey, if neither meters nor invoices are available. In the scenario where volumes are calculated, this is completed by multiplying the maximum intake pump volume by the number of running hours to get a maximum potential volume of freshwater withdrawal, where actual total volume withdrawn is likely much smaller, implementing the precautionary principle. In regards to wastewater discharge, where this is not measured, it is often estimated to be equal to withdrawal, taking into account any known water losses, e.g. within sludge uplift.

feed and processing consumption is measured (44.5% of total group consumption), whilst 100% of our freshwater farming consumption (within RAS facilities) is a best estimate, based on 1% consumption assumed at each site (55.5% of total group consumption). Water intensity Mowi's freshwater consumption intensity for the year 2024 was 108.45 m3 efficiency of our water use in relation to economic output and track improvements over time. In 2023, this value was 112.97 m3 EUR of net revenue, showing an improvement year on year. We also measure freshwater withdrawal intensity in terms of production volume, resulting in a water intensity ratio of 0.62 m3 kg fish produced, versus a value of 0.57 m3 2023. It is thought this small increase is likely to be due to increased investment in RAS facilities during 2024, as the majority of Mowi's freshwater withdrawal is associated with smolt production. Since the majority of this water withdrawn is recirculated, this does not have a noteworthy impact on consumption figures, with freshwater consumption intensity negligible at 0.0010 m3 equal to 2023 results.

Water withdrawals and discharges

In many cases, assets can only report total wastewater discharged, which includes both seawater and freshwater. This means that for most of our assets, besides our feed plants, it is not possible to confirm freshwater consumption by subtracting freshwater discharge from freshwater withdrawal directly. Due to this, Mowi assume 1% consumption of freshwater withdrawn at each of our RAS facilities, due to evaporation, whilst in our flow-through facilities freshwater withdrawal is returned to its source in its entirety. At our processing plants, ice production is used as a proxy for consumption, and this is either measured directly, or calculated from the number of boxes sold during the production year multiplied by the quantity of ice used per box. For these reasons, 100% of our 0.0006 m3 /kg of feed produced, equal to results from 2023. The percentage of water withdrawal from areas classified as high water scarcity risk (using Aqueduct, water quality assessment), is only 0.08% for Mowi Group (318 641 m3, all sourced from surface water). This represents a slight decrease in comparison with 2023 results (0.09%) These areas are all part of our Sales and Marketing operations, more specifically from 4 processing plants located in China, Vietnam and Belgium. None of the water used in our feed and farming operations originate from areas of water scarcity. Mowi Vietnam saw a reduction from 62.6 m3 /tonne production in 2018 (reference year) to 55.67 m3 /tonne production in 2024, resulting in a total intensity reduction of 11 %; Mowi Shanghai saw a reduction from 49.4 m3 /tonne production in 2018 to 12.49 m3 /

In 2024, direct freshwater withdrawal at Mowi's freshwater production units (RAS and flow-through), feed plants and primary and secondary processing plants around the world totalled 393 309 085 m3 (337 400 214 m3 ). Water discharges were 421 584 181 m3 (336 020 198 m3 ), meeting all local environmental standards before release. This includes all freshwater sources, including surface water used to grow our smolts.

As in 2023, 99% of freshwater withdrawal was used for our smolt production in flow-through systems and recirculating aquaculture systems, and 1% at our processing plants and feed plants. Focusing on our major freshwater withdrawal, smolt production, the total freshwater withdrawal from third parties, such as municipal water networks, accounts for as little as 9% (35 307 381 m3 ) of the Group's total freshwater withdrawal. Most freshwater withdrawal is coming from surface water (85%) which is almost in its entirety returned to its source (in flow through systems) or reused (in our Recirculating Aquaculture Systems).

For Farming Norway, our freshwater withdrawal in 2024 was 222 975 491 m3 , representing 0.62 m3 /kg fish produced in Norway. Again, these both demonstrate a slight increase compared with 2023 results (173 210 009 m3 , and 0.49 m3 /kg fish produced in sea, respectively), but reflect the increase in RAS production in Norway during 2024. For Mowi Feed, water intensity was negligible at

/million EUR of net revenue. This ratio helps us monitor the /million / /kg fish produced in /kg fish produced, and tonne production in 2024, resulting in a reduction of 75 %. Mowi Belgium came into scope during 2024 for both processing plants, Ostend and Bruges. Whilst Bruges reduced the use of 2.37 m3 / tonne production in 2023 to 2.18 m3 / tonne production in 2024 (9 % reduction compared to 2018), Ostend saw a small increase from 12.28 m3 /tonne production in 2023 to 12.70 m3 /tonne production in 2024 (2% increase compared to 2018). This means that two out of four processing facilities located in areas with high water scarcity have not only reached, but exceeded their intensity reduction target. The two Belgian plants only came into scope for this target during 2024, meaning that it was not possible to introduce additional, targeted water saving initiatives during the year, but will become an area of focus going into 2025. Mowi Boulogne, which was in scope when the target was set, and remained in scope until 2024, has achieved a 7% reduction in freshwater withdrawal intensity compared to 2018, decreasing from 3.56 m3 / tonne production in 2023 to 3.33 m3 /tonne production in 2024. Wastewater discharge in these water-stressed areas was 321 687 m3 .

Mowi follows wastewater discharge limits (discharge volume and quality) per national regulations and aims to comply 100% with the volume and quality regulatory limits. All our processing plants discharging wastewater to freshwater do it through third-party wastewater treatment plants where regulatory limits are set by national environmental governmental agencies (therefore 0 m3 discharged to freshwater environments). In 2024, wastewater discharge for Mowi Group was 421 584 181 m3 (331 206 208 m3 of wastewater is discharged to the sea, 88 392 327 m3 to surface water and 1 985 646 m3 to third parties).

Our freshwater production units, used to produce smolt, discharged 416 640 289 m3 back to the environment.

In 2024, 0 of our processing plants incurred penalties related to wastewater discharge volumes or wastewater discharge quality.

Marine resource performance

% of marine raw materials MSC, MarinTrust or equivalent certified

100% of our marine raw materials (fish meal and fish oil) were either MSC, MarineTrust Standard (former IFFO-RS) certified or part of fisheries improvement projects aimed at achieving the MarinTrust certification. More specifically, 20% (28%) of marine raw materials originated from MSC certified fisheries, 76% (38%) Marin Trust and the remaining part of a MarinTrust Improvement Project or a Fisheries Improvement Project.

In 2024, Mowi Feed's marine raw materials that were not certified by MarinTrust or sourced from MSC fisheries originated from fisheries that were engaged in fishery improvement projects (FIPs). The FIPs in Mowi Feed's scope were as follows:

  • The MarinTrust / NAPA North East Atlantic Blue Whiting Fishery Improvement Project (FIP rating D)
  • The NAPA North East Atlantic Mackerel and Atlanto-Scandian Herring Fishery Improvement Project (FIP rating C)

FCR

The feed conversion rate (FCR) is a ratio that describes the amount of feed used to produce a certain amount of salmon. It is defined as kg feed consumed/kg biomass gained. The lower the FCR, the more efficient our salmon are at converting the energy in the feed. Biological feed conversion ratio expresses the amount of feed used to produce 1 kg of salmon. On a global level in 2024, we used 1.17 kg (1.17 kg) of fish feed to grow 1 kg of salmon.

Volumes and % trimmings FM and FO

We continue our efforts to increase the use of fish trimmings to produce fishmeal and fish oil, in both our integrated feed production and externally sourced feed. In 2024, Mowi Feed sourced 68 177 tonnes of fish meal from whole fish and 26 245 tonnes from trimmings/by-products, and 47 461 tonnes of fish oil from whole fish and 19 236 tonnes of fish oil from trimmings/by-products. This means that in 2024, 28% and 29% of fish meal and fish oil respectively, used by Mowi Feed, originated from trimmings.

FIFO and rFIFO

Fish in-fish out (FIFO) provides the amount of kg of wild fish (excluding trimmings) it takes to produce one kg of salmon. The species used in fish meal and fish oil production are from reduction fisheries and trimmings not used for human consumption. In 2024, 0.77 kg of low consumer preference wild fish (like anchovy and sardine) produced one kg of Mowi farm-raised salmon. If we take into account the fish meal and fish oil that is produced from the salmon by-products during processing, the rFIFO (recaptured FIFO) is 0.60 for Mowi Group.

FIFO= ((%FM in diet + %FO in diet)/ (%yield FM+%yield FO))*eFCR; where FM is fish meal and FO is fish oil and eFCR is economic feed conversion ratio. rFIFO= ((%rFM in diet + %rFO in diet)/ (%yield FM+%yield FO))*eFCR; Where rFM and rFO is the recaptured fish meal and fish oil (i.e. fish meal and oil produced from by-products originated from salmon processing)

FFDRo and FFDRm

Our Forage Fish Dependency Ratios (FFDR) for meal and oil are presented in the tables, as a group (weighted average based on seawater production) and per farming country. FFDR represents the quantity of wild fish used to produce 1 kg of fish, in accordance with ASC certification calculations requirements.

Consideration of biodiversity and ecosystems in strategy and business model

In recent years, biodiversity, i.e. the diversity of all living things on our planet, has been declining at an alarming rate. Species and ecosystems are deteriorating at high rates and along with them the services and resources humans depend on for a good quality of life. To reverse the rapid decline in biodiversity and restore natural ecosystems there is an urgent need to transform and change the way we use and manage nature today. This message was put into action by the adaptation of the Kunming Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) by 188 nations gathered at the 15th Conference of Parties (COP 15) to the UN Convention on Biological Diversity in December 2022. The framework consists of four global goals and 23 targets to be reached by 2030, providing a package of critical measurements for a turn-around plan to halt and reverse nature degradation and secure sustainable use of nature for the future. To conceptualise the link between biodiversity impact drivers and human activity and where efforts should be concentrated, the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) has laid out a model consisting of five direct drivers of biodiversity and ecosystem change - climate change, land- water- and sea-use change, resource exploitation, invasive species and pollution. Climate change is considered one of the most pressing global challenges our planet is facing and is inextricably linked in cause and effect to the other four drivers.

Mowi depends on well-functioning and stable ecosystems to produce our salmon under optimal conditions for them to thrive and be healthy. Several key steps in our value chain are directly dependent on specific nature services needed for production. This ranges from the sourcing of marine and vegetable feed ingredients to the freshwater for rearing smolts, and the coastal marine waters where we farm our salmon until harvest. It is important to recognize the potential impact our operations can have on the very same nature services on which we and others depend on. Awareness is the foundation for Mowi to take responsibility and act to protect natural capital.

Resilience of our strategy and business model

Nature-related dependencies, impacts, risks and opportunities have an effect on Mowi's business model and strategy, including transition plans and financial planning. Salmon farming is a relatively new sector compared to others in the food industry. One clear advantage of being a young sector is that the focus on nature dependencies and impacts has been there from the start. Comprehensive regulatory frameworks have been developed over time ensuring that salmon farming operations are located in suitable areas where co-existence with nature is possible.

Mowi's Leading the Blue Revolution Plan and Mowi's Biodiversity Framework In Harmony with Nature, describe our sustainability strategy which entails Mowi's commitments and actions in preserving biodiversity and ecosystems. Preserving biodiversity is a corner stone in our sustainability strategy, and is directly linked to our other sustainability programs and our work to mitigate and minimise the risk of negative impacts.

Our Biodiversity framework is an extension of our existing strategic sustainability programmes and policies on the topic of protecting nature, and function as our main tool for understanding our nature footprint and guide us in the further development of our business planning. The aim is to capture and communicate transparently our efforts to protect biodiversity.

Our biodiversity framework presents Mowi's nature-related impacts and dependencies with connected risks and opportunities. The framework also described the process of how these are identified, assessed and incorporated into the Mowi way of working and our business strategy. We have used different tools for guidance and prioritisation. To evaluate our main impacts and dependencies we used the Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF), the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) and the WWF Biodiversity Risk Filter (BRF) guidelines. The WWF BRF provides guidance on sector specific dependencies and impacts for the fishing and aquaculture sector. We also used the Integrated Biodiversity Assessment Tool (IBAT) to screen for sites in sensitive areas, as recommended and provided by the TNFD. Mowi's internal supplier relationship management (SRM) system was used to support the assessment of Mowi's upstream operations. The process on environmental due diligence exposes all suppliers to global indices addressing biodiversity.

Examples of key strategic decisions made in the recent years that mitigate negative impacts on nature are:

  • the start of our own feed production in Europe in 2012, which allowed us to optimise inbound and outbound logistics with relevant impacts on reducing GHG emissions related with transport. It also allowed us to have more control on sustainable sourcing of feed raw materials and ensure 100% free-deforestation sourcing of soy and 100% sustainable sourcing of marine raw materials. Having ownership to feed produced in Europe, allow us to work towards further reduction in feed conversion ratio (FCR) which is the biggest lever of environmental footprint.
  • incorporating and further developing our secondary processing operations (e.g. acquisition of Morpol in Poland in 2013) allowed us to optimise logistics, energy efficiency and ensure that our by-products are upcycled to avoid food waste while bringing to the market marine by-products that can be used as feed raw materials in other aquaculture species. As a consequence pressure on pelagic fisheries as source of feed raw materials can be reduced.
  • the acquisition of Arctic Fish in Iceland in 2023, allowing us to build on the sustainable certification volumes available every year. 100% of our sites in Iceland, at point of acquisition, were ASC certified.
  • investing in new Recirculating Aquaculture System as part of Mowi's postsmolt strategy allow us to reduce biological risk by reducing the production time at sea and therefore reducing risks of escapes, use of medicines while increase survival rates and fish welfare.
  • setting Science Based Targets for the reduction of GHG emissions, followed by a climate transition plan has been matched with clear operational decisions on connecting sites

to land power, use of hybrid energy management systems, on-site generation and purchase of renewable electricity. This is allowing us to reduce the dependency on fossil fuels in our seawater production while increasing the share of renewable electricity for the group.

implementing across our operations the mitigation hierarchy principles to avoid waste to landfill by maximizing reusability and recyclability of solid waste including farming equipment. By promoting the principles of extended producer responsibility in our procurement practices, we are also achieving good progress on reducing and recycling plastic packaging.

Results of analysis

The resilience analysis covers our direct operation Feed, Farming and Sales & Marketing, as well as our Supply Chain, meaning upstream and downstream operations, resulting in a list of priority topics linked to our strategic sustainability programmes and the mitigation actions we take to avoid, prevent and reduce negative nature impacts in our value chain. The analysis focuses on the potential impacts and dependencies of identified risks and opportunities over short, medium, and long-term horizons, as defined in ERSR 2. The resilience analysis is summarised in a table at the end of IRO-1 Material Impacts, Risks and Opportunities related to Biodiversity and ecosystems.

Through the development of our sustainability strategy and our biodiversity framework, where priority has been assigned by assessment of WWF biodiversity risk rating (BRF), the GBF and the TNFD recommendations, we have secured an in-depth assessment of the resilience of our strategy and business model.

We committed to the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) in 2023, by announcing Mowi as one of 320 financial institutions listed as early adopters of the framework. In 2024, we have updated our TNFD with the aquaculture sector guidance disclosures. When conducting the benchmarking of the 23 targets set in the Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) to be achieved by 2030 and beyond, we assess if we were aligned with the critical measurements needed to halt and reverse nature degradation and secure sustainable use of nature for the future. The conclusion of this benchmark is that we are aligned with the targets set that are applicable to Mowi.

  • Nature-related risk and impact assessments are integrated in the Mowi way of working and are governed through national regulations, internal policies and recognised voluntary certification programs. Our farming operations are certified according to standards that take account of biodiversity. These standards, such as Global GAP, BAP and ASC, include criteria to minimise environmental impact and preserve biodiversity.
  • Identified nature-related risks and opportunities are incorporated in our Leading the Blue Revolution Plan and global sustainability programs and targets. We monitor and report on our progress towards specific targets to reduce or prevent negative nature-related impacts and realise naturerelated opportunities.
  • We invest in technology and solutions to improve resource efficiency and prevent negative nature-impacts.
  • Mowi engages with our supply chain through our supplier due diligence process, assessing biodiversity and ecosystems risks.
  • Our responsible sourcing policy for feed ingredients is key to ensuring that both the marine and non-marine raw materials used in our fish feeds do not compromise biodiversity. Both our own feed plants and external feed suppliers must comply with this policy.

We believe that producing more healthy food from the ocean is an integral part of dealing with major challenges faced by humanity such as biodiversity loss and climate change. Food from the ocean is part of the solution to prevent biodiversity loss. By producing sustainable seafood at scale, the aquaculture industry is in a position to help tackle global challenges. This is at the very core of our vision of Leading the Blue Revolution.

Stakeholder involvement

Throughout the development of Mowi's Biodiversity Framework we ran several engagement meetings with relevant external stakeholders, including the World Wildlife Fund (WWF Global), the Global Sustainable Seafood Initiative (GSSI) and the UN Global Compact. Additionally, several internal stakeholders in Mowi were involved to bring the perspective on nature risks and opportunities, impacts and dependencies of the different steps in our value chain. These internal stakeholder groups represented finance and investor relationships, human resources, procurement, quality and environment, and operations in all business areas (Feed, Farming and Sales & Marketing). Indigenous Rights Holders as well as stakeholder groups like the media were also considered in this process.

Especially when new operational areas are explored, engagement with local Indigenous Rights Holders is of high importance to Mowi. In Canada such engagement process aims to provide the local First Nation community with a full, comprehensive understanding of the operations and production cycle of salmon farming. Based on this shared knowledge, the community can assess all benefits and potential risks and make an informed decision on whether they wish to make a mutual beneficial agreement. Our agreements are long enough to provide business certainty and include a five-year review cycle that allows us to incorporate input from the Nations into our long term production plans. Implementation committees are also established to ensure continuous communication with the community through recurring meetings, regular reporting, indigenous presence on our farms and site tours. Additionally, our Community Partnerships team maintains a physical presence in the areas we farm which allows us to readily address community concerns while providing further opportunities for engagement via community events, training, employment, site tours and student internships.

How we engage with our stakeholders and address current and anticipated nature-related impacts, risks and opportunities, is addressed in our Sustainability Governance Policy.

SBM-3 and IRO-1

Disclosure on biodiversity-sensitive areas

For Mowi there is both an opportunity and a risk related to farming in the marine environment. Opportunities for Mowi come from the recognition of the coexistence between salmon farming and nature, while the risk is related to marine protected areas, and how they will be governed and potentially changed in the future.

A key aspect of understanding potential nature-related issues is to know our nature interface, and if any of our operations are located in critical, highly sensitive environmental areas, special areas of conservation (SAC) and/or special protected areas (SPA). We have screened and mapped all direct operational farming sites to assess if they are located in areas of high biodiversity value, such as sites within the borders of areas designated for protection at national or sub-national levels, wetlands protected under the Ramsar convention, UNESCO world heritage sites and key biodiversity areas (KBAs). For this purpose, the Integrated Biodiversity Assessment Tool (IBAT) was used to screen for sites in sensitive areas, as recommended and provided by TNFD. Sites classified as being in a biodiversity-sensitive area are of special concern to us, as our direct operations potentially pose a higher risk to biodiversity than locations elsewhere. The potential considered impacts on wild species and marine ecosystems, and especially threatened species and sensitive ecosystems, are escapes, pathogens, organic waste and chemical releases. Using the TNFD guidance on biomes and the IUCN Global Ecosystem Typology (GET) tool we have also identify which biomes and ecosystem habitats all of our direct operational sites are located in. We also mapped the biomes connected to our sites located in areas with high overall water risk. The result form the screening is presented in the table below.

In Norway, eight sites are located in Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), whereas one of them is also located in a National Preservation fjord for Atlantic salmon. Two additional sites are located in a KBAs not under national protection. We follow closely the results from our benthic surveys to ensure these sites have a minimum negative impact.

In Scotland, we operate five seawater sites located only in a Special Areas of Conservation (SAC), two sites in Marine Protected Area (MPA), ten sites in areas classified as both a SAC and MPA, and two sites are classified as SAC, MPA and National Scenic Areas. Further, nine sites are located in National Scenic Areas (NSA) only, two sites are both in a NSA and a MPA, while one site is in a NSA and under the Ramsar convention. The majority of the sites have been in operation prior to the date of designation reflecting the minimal impact that farming operations have had, and continue to have on the conservation objectives of these designations. In order to safeguard Protected Areas there is a robust environmental assessment process that applies to the licensing of new activities and such activities will only be licensed by regulatory authorities if it can be demonstrated there is no significant risk to the status of these areas.

In Canada West, none of our sites operate in official High Conservation Value Areas (HCVA) or Federal Marine Protected Areas. Five marine sites border the Broughton Archipelago Provincial Marine Park. In the Port Hardy area, one site borders a marine park and another site borders a provincial conservancy. In Canada East, none of our sites are located close to protected areas, official HCVA or federal MPAs, while five seawater sites are located in KBAs.

In Chile, we operate two sites located in the Priority Conservation Area Isla Kent-Quitralco. These sites have all permits to operate in these areas and all operations are regulated by law. All sites have environmental impact assessments to make sure all site activities are within national regulations.

Material impacts, risks and opportunities related to biodiversity and ecosystems

Being aware of and understanding the risk and effect of negative impacts, as well as the nature-related dependencies and opportunities resulting from sustainable strategies, is integrated in our Biodiversity Framework. Mowi has assessed actual and potential impacts and dependencies, risks and opportunities connected to biodiversity and ecosystems through process of a LEAP assessment. The scope of the assessment included both Mowi's direct operations and up- and downstream value chain, and covers physical risk, transition risk and systemic risk. Identified risks are integrated in our internal risk assessments and mitigation practices, where we also monitor and report on related metrics and KPIs for our direct, upstream and downstream operations, this process connects to monitoring of actual nature-linked impacts.

Through our materiality assessment we have identified that the sub-topic contribution to direct impact drivers on biodiversity loss is material to Mowi, whereas four of the five main direct drivers of biodiversity and ecosystem change has been identified as material sub-sub-topics - climate change, land-, freshwater- and sea-use change, invasive alien species and pollution.

Below is a summary of the LEAP assessment. The identified impacts, risks, dependencies and opportunities is presented in a table at the end, together with how they relates to the direct impact drivers of biodiversity and ecosystem change - climate change, land- waterand sea-use change, invasive alien species and pollution. The last phase of the LEAP assessment (Prepare) is covering what we do to protect nature, which is outlined in our policies (E4-2), metrics (E4-5) and targets (E4-4), and the actions (E4-3) we are taking to progress.

Phase 1: Locate

Mowi's nature footprint and priority locations

We mapped our sites located in priority locations, meaning operational sites in areas of high biodiversity value, such as areas of significant water risk or within the borders of areas designated for protection at national or sub-national levels, wetlands protected under the Ramsar convention, UNESCO world heritage sites and key biodiversity areas (KBAs). For this purpose, the Integrated Biodiversity Assessment Tool (IBAT) was used to screen for sites in sensitive areas, as recommended and provided by the TNFD. Mowi also used the IUCN Global Ecosystem Typology tool to map relevant Ecosystems and Biomes. Identified sites in priority locations are disclosed in SBM-3.

Mowi's supply chain channels significant volumes of materials and services from thousands of businesses globally. Through these relationships we impact a variety of environments around the world and we recognise that with this comes a significant responsibility. Mowi's supply chain has been screened using Mowi's s internal

In Ireland, nine of our marine sites are located within SAC and one site in a KBA. The SAC sites have several habitats listed in Annex I and Annex II of the EU Habitats Directive such as coastal lagoons, tidal mudflats, sandflat, large shallow inlets and bays, reefs, mudflats, and sandflats not covered by seawater at low tide. Six sites are located in a OSPAR MPA, which is a collaborative governance managed by the OSPAR commission, who established a network of MPAs in the North-East Atlantic with the purpose of protecting and conserving species, habitats and ecosystems. A further two marine sites are located within five kilometres of special protected areas (SPA) designated under the EU Birds Directive. For all marine sites we undertake annual monitoring of the seabed, resulting in a comprehensive database of seabed animals under and adjacent to our sites. Periodic riverbed quality surveys are carried out below discharge points from our smolt units. This coupled with careful feed management and site fallowing ensures that we do not negatively impact these areas. The marine sites in areas of nature priority cover a total estimated surface of 0.88 km2.

There is a rich wildlife around our farms, including marine mammals and birds. It is a priority for Mowi to take preventive action and implement measures to avoid negative impact on wildlife. All bird and mammal mortalities are registered with a special emphasis on red listed species. None of the birds and mammals mortalities are listed as endangered species in the IUCN Red List. Awareness of such species in the nearby areas of our operations becomes important to ensure we prioritise our efforts where it is the most important.

All direct operations are subject to licensing under environmental regulations which includes detailed environmental assessment of sensitive habitats and species. Our environmental licences are issued with limits and conditions to ensure our operations comply with environmental standards and conservation thresholds, underpinned by monitoring requirements. All applications for establishing new or expanding existing sites are evaluated through environmental impact assessments. The aim of this process is to assess if and how the operations might impact nature, based on the environmental and physical conditions of the location and knowledge about the surrounding ecosystems and wildlife. National regulations and requirements thereby establish a knowledge-based and location specific assessment for all sites.

Based on the assessment of our sites located in and near biodiversity sensitive area, there are no need to implement any additional biodiversity mitigation measures, according to those identified in Directive 2009/147/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on the conservation of wild birds; Council Directive 92/43/EEC on the conservation of natural habitats and of wild fauna and flora; an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) as defined in Article 1(2), point (g), of Directive 2011/92/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council on the assessment of the effects of certain public and private projects on the environment; and for activities located in third countries, in accordance with equivalent national provisions or international standards, such as the International Finance Corporation (IFC) Performance Standard 6: Biodiversity Conservation and Sustainable Management of Living Natural Resources.

Although there is no need to implement any mitigation measures according to regulations, Mowi has taken several actions that contributes to the protection of biodiversity and ecosystems. The actions are disclosed in E4-3.

Mowi has 66 sites located in biodiversity sensitive areas, but none of these sites have documented negative impact on the local habitat with regards to land degradation, desertification or soil sealing or to the disturbance of the species for which the protected area has been designated.

supplier relationship management (SRM) system. The process on environmental due diligence starts by exposing all suppliers to global indices addressing biodiversity, water and climate risks. The biodiversity index includes screening of areas designated as marine protected, terrestrial protected as well as an index on the ratification of environmental treaties per country. For vegetable feed raw material suppliers the biodiversity index also addresses the loss of forest through the addition of a global deforestation index. All suppliers have been given a risk rating. We operate with a risk matrix placing suppliers into one of four risk categories according to their scoring in the indexes. Category 1 is low risk and category 4 is high risk.

Phase 2: Evaluate

Mowi's nature-related impacts and dependencies

The next step in our LEAP assessment, is to evaluate Mowi's priority impacts and dependencies, which were identified using the Global Biodiversity Framework, TNFD and the WWF Biodiversity Risk Filter (BRF) guidelines.

The Biodiversity Risk Filter (BRF) tool published by the World Wildlife Foundation (WWF) was used to identify nature-linked impacts and dependencies rated by level of impact or dependency for the fishing and aquaculture industries, thereby setting the initial criteria for the assessment. The framework breaks risk into 33 different indicators, covering aspects of biodiversity that may be material risks from a financial, environmental or social perspective. Impact and dependency levels for each indicator are rated from very high to very low by the BRF. Indicators rated as high or very high were selected for further assessment, focusing on how they connect to our operational sites and activities as well as value chain. The very high indicators for the fishing and aquaculture sector are water scarcity, water conditions, limited marine fish availability, ecosystems conditions, landslides, extreme heat, tropical cyclones, land, freshwater and sea use change and pollution. The high indicators are fire hazard and plant/forest/aquatic pests and diseases. One exception is the protected/conserved area indicator, which is rated as a medium impact by the BRF tool, but which Mowi considers as highly relevant for our direct operations from a risk and opportunity perspective. Priority was further assigned by evaluation of the targets set by the Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) and the EU Biodiversity strategy for 2030, the TNFD recommendations and existing strategic sustainability topics and programs in Mowi.

Mowi's supply chain has been further evaluated based on priority impact and dependencies and the result of the biodiversity indexes rating. Through this process we can prioritise our efforts towards the relevant suppliers. We pay a special attention to feed raw materials and risks related to high impact commodities such as soy, fish meal and fish oil. In 2024, our global index assessment identified six suppliers at high-risk, all suppliers of vegetable (or additives) feed raw materials. All marine, vegetable and additive suppliers regardless of risk rating, are subjected to Mowi's assessment survey.

Phase 3: Assess

Mowi's nature-related risks and opportunities

For each identified priority nature impact or dependency, the relevant nature related risks to the organisation were assessed and further categorised in terms of location in the value chain, risk type

(physical, transition or systemic) and time horizon. The assessment also considered how nature-related opportunities for Mowi and our business connect to our impacts and dependencies.

Most of the priority impacts and dependencies are already evaluated and risk assessed on site specific level, as part of the three-step approach we take to ensure we operate in harmony with nature; 1. Regulatory compliance, 2. Mowi Policies and 3. Voluntary standards. These three steps thereby set the criteria for if and how risks are identified and where in our operations or value chain they occur.

Regulatory compliance

Mowi adheres to applicable laws and regulations including environmental protection. The national laws are not only regulating how we operate but also where we operate. All applications for establishing new or expanding existing sites are evaluated through environmental impact assessments. The aim of this process is to assess if and how the operations might impact nature, based on the environmental and physical conditions of the location and knowledge about the surrounding ecosystems and wildlife. National regulations and requirements thereby establish a knowledgebased and location specific assessment for all sites, which is the first of three steps we take to ensure good ecosystem condition and minimal risk for negative nature impacts. The regulatory requirements in the countries where we farm today ensure responsible and sustainable siting and production through impact assessment. The robust regulatory frameworks that govern Mowi operations ensure that any new or expanding site developments incorporate appropriate mitigation measures designed to limit or remove any significant adverse environmental effects.

Mowi Policies

Our global policies ensure we follow a one-company approach, where the policy commitments and requirements are implemented in our local operations all over the world. The policies are directly linked with nature risk assessments and Mowi's governance and mitigation strategies. Policy topics include, but are not limited to, biodiversity, freshwater use, plastics, sustainable salmon feed and use of antimicrobial agents.

Voluntary certifications

Third-party certification is the final step in our assessment and plays a key part in Mowi's Biodiversity Framework. Mowi's target is that 100% of our yearly harvest volume is certified with a Global Sustainable Seafood Initiative (GSSI) recognised standard, such as the Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC), Best Aquaculture Practices (BAP) or Global GAP standards. To become GSSI recognised, the certification standards are required to include assessments and documentation of nature-related risks connected to key biodiversity topics. Key requirements on biodiversity related topics, categorised as essential components of the GSSI Global Benchmark Tool, is;

  • Aquatic animal health management
  • Culture and hygienic standard at operation sites
  • Aquaculture waste and benthic environment
  • Escape prevention and mitigation
  • Restoration of damaged sensitive habitats
  • Record of endangered species
  • Predator control

As a part of the Assess phase we also run a scenario analysis to understand the potential implications linked with biodiversity protection and ecosystems.

When assessing our supply chain, the suppliers rated as high-risk based on the environmental indices are further exposed to a Mowi survey which goes into more granular questions regarding policies, monitoring and actions taken on biodiversity topics. This include questions related with water stewardship, wastewater management, pollution, biodiversity, GHG and other emissions. For feed raw material suppliers we also introduce good agricultural practice in the surveys, and identification of specific GAP projects such as crop rotation, use of cover crops, agroforestry, soil health management, plant nutrient management, training of farmers etc. The six high-risk suppliers of vegetable (or additives) feed raw materials identified in 2024 were subject to Mowi's assessment survey, which resulted in all six suppliers being approved.

Identified physical risks:

  • Climate risks related to storm damage due to extreme weather events and algae blooms due to increased temperatures.
  • Risk of seabed impact beyond environmental carrying capacity.
  • Risk related to feed raw materials, such as severe drought, deforestation and limited marine fish stocks, can have an impact on the availability and price of agricultural commodities.
  • Freshwater-related risks connected to sites located in areas of high or extreme high risk of water stress, where the risk of limited available water resources can potentially affect production by halting or reducing processing activities.
  • Escaped farm-raised salmon can represent a risk as it may have a negative impact on the environment, due to ecological interactions and interbreeding with wild populations.

Nature-related transition risks are risks to an organisation that result from a misalignment of economic actors with actions aimed at protecting, restoring and/or reducing negative impacts on nature.

Identified transitional risks:

  • Legislation or regulations imposing overall caps or taxes on greenhouse gas emissions, or mandating the increased use of electricity from renewable energy sources.
  • Failing monitoring requirements and having poor benthic conditions could have financial implications as well as negative reputational effect, this is an especially important risk in biodiversity sensitive locations. If regulations for existing operations would become stricter there might be

Nature-related risk considerations

Nature-related physical risks are risks to an organisation that result from the degradation of nature and consequential loss of ecosystem services. Physical risk is driven by the ways in which a company depends on nature and can be affected by both natural and humaninduced changes to the condition of land- and seascapes.

consequences in terms of changes in allowed biomass, fallowing periods or other operational requirements leading to increased costs or limitation of production. Despite responsible use and residue control aligned with regulatory compliance, there is a reputational risk for Mowi when using antimicrobials, which is linked with the concern for antimicrobial resistance.

Marine protected areas and how they will be governed and potentially changed in the future, and a reputational risk related to mortalities of birds and mammals, with a special emphasis on red listed species.

Nature-related systemic risks are risks to an organisation that arise from the breakdown of the entire system, rather than the failure of individual parts. Nature-related systemic risk can be divided into two categories - Ecosystem stability risk and financial stability risk.

  • Destabilisation of natural ecosystems which we depend on, leading to oceans no longer can provide the ecosystem services in the same manner as before.
  • The migration of marine fish stocks to new areas also poses a systemic risk.

Mowi also recognises the strong connection between biodiversity and society. Healthy ecosystems and thriving biodiversity have been recognised as prerequisites for achieving the sustainable development goals (SDGs) and ensuring human rights by access to healthy ecosystem services providing for basic needs, such as safe and clean environments, food, medicines, clean air and water. Awareness of how risks and impacts interact as drivers of biodiversity loss, and their potential of contributing to systemic risks where entire ecosystems and important ecosystem services with them are irreversible lost, is therefore important to Mowi.

Community consultations

Mowi is committed to actively engage with communities and Indigenous Right Holders that are directly impacted through our business, to share the results of environmental risk and impacts assessments and measurements, as well as openly discuss outcomes, alternatives, and solutions. Local Indigenous Rights Holders are involved in the development of environmental monitoring plans, as part of the strategy to avoid negative impact on shared biological resources and relevant ecosystem services which both parties depend on.

We have conducted consultations with affected communities, especially when:

  • i. Operations potentially impact biodiversity and ecosystems, identifying specific sites and sourcing activities.
  • ii. Materiality assessments involve communities, ensuring their involvement and input are considered.

iii. Operations impact ecosystem services, where we have developed strategies to avoid, minimize, or mitigate negative impacts.

E4-2

Management of material impacts, risks and opportunities

Global biodiversity and ecosystem integrity continue to be eroded at unprecedented rates. It has therefore never been more important to safeguard our environment. It is essential that Mowi acts responsibly, transparently and proactively to preserve biodiversity and the ecosystem goods and services that natural resources provide us with (i.e., natural capital). Our global policies ensure we follow a one-company approach, where the policy commitments and requirements are implemented in our local operations all over the world. The policies are directly linked with nature impact, risk, dependencies and opportunities assessments and Mowi's governance and mitigation strategies. The policies are in alignment with ESRS 2 MDR-P and are designed to ensure that our operations promote ecological balance and biodiversity conservation.

Policies related to biodiversity and ecosystems

We acknowledge that aquaculture activities can potentially impact biodiversity. To address these concerns, we have a number of comprehensive policies in place to responsibly manage our production and sourcing from ecosystems to maintain or enhance conditions for biodiversity. Our overall Biodiversity Policy ensures that Mowi manages its operations in harmony with nature and therefore protecting biodiversity.

The following section outlines the policies related to the identified material topics, climate change, land- freshwater- and sea-use change, invasive alien species and pollution, as specified in E4 AR 4.

Climate change

The global policy on climate change and energy use outlines the governance structure for the topic, and presents our science-based targets for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction and the identified actions linked to our climate roadmap for all business areas, including up- and downstream activities. The direct impact driver Climate Change, is reported under ESRS E1 Climate Change.

Land, freshwater and sea-use change

Freshwater represents a nature dependency for Mowi, as we need available freshwater volumes that meet quality requirements for both our direct production and upstream (sourcing of vegetable feed raw materials) activities. Our policy related to freshwater-use is reported under ESRS E3 Water and Marine Resources, together with policies related to water discharge.

By depending on marine sources for feed it is clear that the sustainable use and governance of marine resources is of high importance and a priority to Mowi. This policy is also described in ESRS E3 Water and Marine Resources.

Through our sourcing of vegetable feed raw materials we acknowledge that we can have indirect impact on land-use change. Our Sustainable salmon feed policy presents our requirements for sourcing of feed raw materials and external feed suppliers, including sustainable certifications, traceability and human rights. Responsible sourcing of sustainable feed ingredients is also covered in our Biodiversity policy, where the scope is to minimise impacts on biodiversity and natural capital. Mowi supports efforts

to increase purchases of sustainably sourced terrestrial raw materials documented through soy certified by ProTerra, Europe Soy Standard or supplied from producers applying the Roundtable for Responsible Soy (RTRS) and Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) standards or equivalent. Our Sustainable salmon feed policy, Procurement policy and due diligence of suppliers ensure sourcing is not linked with deforestation or land use change.

Invasive alien species

Escaped farm-raised salmon may have a negative impact on the environment, due to ecological interactions and interbreeding with wild populations. Our Biodiversity Policy outlines the importance of ensuring zero fish escapes. All site personnel are trained in Mowi's Farming Excellence Program – Zero Escape, and we have established a Global Escape Action Group to define key improvement priorities, track progress and share learned experiences, all to ensure fish escapes are avoided at all costs.

Pollution

Our Biodiversity policy presents the mitigating actions we take to prevent and/or minimize pollution and release of substances to the surrounding environment from the locations where we farm. This connects with our ambition to be fully compliant with both the regulatory and the voluntary certification requirements set for benthic conditions during and between production cycles. All our farming operations are certified according to standards that account for biodiversity (e.g., Global GAP, BAP and ASC). The policy further outlines that Mowi aims to maximise farm performance and minimise feed pellet loss through the use of Smart Farming technologies and autonomous feeding. Additionally, we keep stocking densities at sea well below 25 kg/m3 . These strategies ensure that we remain well within the carrying capacities of the environments in which we operate.

Other

Our Human-wildlife interaction policy addresses our strategy and commitments to manage human-wildlife interactions resulting in wildlife mortality, and how we work to responsibly manage our operations in order to prevent such risk. The objective of the policy is to avoid and minimise any negative impact on local wildlife from any Mowi business area.

The Mowi Policy on Human-Wildlife Interactions recognises that wildlife surround our farms and that interaction can occur with Mowi's operations, but seeks to prevent such incidents through establishing a strategy and commitments to manage such events, and work responsibly to manage the company's operations to prevent such risk. This could be through, for example, bird nets, predator exclusion nets and reduction of potential sources of food for wildlife. The policy highlights that monitoring and reporting of any events (done monthly through our internal reporting systems) allow the introduction of applicable actions where needed, whilst also allowing the company to meet voluntary certification requirements that we commit to (such as the ASC, BAP and Global Gap). This policy is especially important for any assets located in areas under conservation protection due to threatened habitats or ecosystems, or where there is a risk of vulnerable bird or marine mammals inhabiting or migrating through the area. Strategies are applicable to all Mowi business areas, including feed, farming and sales and marketing, but most critical to all farming operations, where we are

situated closest to nature. Our Chief Sustainability Officer has the main responsibility for the implementation of this policy.

Human rights and biodiversity are also strongly connected, as healthy ecosystems and thriving biodiversity have been recognized as prerequisites for achieving the sustainable development goals (SDGs) and ensuring human rights. Human rights include access to healthy ecosystem services providing for basic needs such as safe and clean environments, food, medicines, clean air and water. Biodiversity degradation and habitat loss are therefore also risks to human rights. We believe that businesses can only flourish in societies where human rights are protected and respected, making human rights a key dependency for Mowi's future opportunities for growth in the long term. Our Human rights policy, Biodiversity framework, Code of Conduct, whistle blower channel and suppliers due diligence ensure Human rights are respected both in our own operations and in our supply chain.

E4-2-24

Specific policy adoptions

Mowi has adopted the following specific policies:

a. Biodiversity and Ecosystem protection Policy

Our Biodiversity Policy outlines how Mowi manages its operations to act responsibly, transparently and proactively to preserve biodiversity and the ecosystem goods and services that natural resources provide us with. It complements our Biodiversity Framework: Farming in Harmony with Nature, alongside a number of other comprehensive policies, outlined below, whilst providing an overview of how Mowi commits to manage impacts and risks, namely to responsibly source sustainable feed ingredients, reduce water and benthic impacts, manage human-wildlife interactions, plastic management, medicinal treatments, non-medicinal sea lice management, fish escape avoidance, deforestation avoidance and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Producing food from the ocean also offers biodiversity opportunities as salmon farming as lower climate impact, freshwater and land use as compared to land animal proteins. Dietary shifts from land to ocean-based food can protect biodiversity at scale. Our process for monitoring biodiversity impacts is in place and includes our monthly and quarterly reporting for own operations.

Our biodiversity policy outlines how Mowi manages its operations with biodiversity considerations at the forefront. It has been formulated following a benchmarking process against the EU Green Deal, Global Biodiversity Framework, the Taskforce on Nature related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) and the World Benchmarking Alliance's Nature Benchmark. Mowi pays special attention to critical, highly sensitive environmental areas, special areas of conservation (SAC), and special protected areas (SPA) located close to / around our farm sites. Our Chief Sustainability Officer has the main responsibility for the implementation of this policy.

b. Sustainable Land/Agriculture Practices

As outlined in our sustainable feed policy, we require that all salmon feed suppliers are Global GAP, BAP or ASC certified by an accredited certification body (CB). Mowi supports efforts to increase the purchase of sustainably sourced vegetable raw materials and we collaborate with suppliers of agricultural raw materials to promote adherence to good agricultural practices. We also require 100% traceability of feed raw materials. All ingredients used in salmon feed shall have a traceability system in place. For ingredients of plant origin, this shall include the country in which crops are both grown and processed and specifically for soy of Brazilian origin, this shall include the volumes per municipality and biome.

c. Sustainable Oceans/Seas Practices

Our Sustainable salmon feed policy and policy on emerging feed raw materials outline the strategy and requirements for sustainable sourcing of marine feed raw materials. For raw materials of marine origin including those originating from trimmings, as a minimum, this shall include the volumes per species, fishery identification and the country of origin of the raw material. Marine raw materials shall not originate from IUU (Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported) catch or from fish species classified as endangered by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) red list. A significant proportion of Mowi's marine ingredients shall be derived from byproducts and downgrades of food fish (i.e. trimmings) these already being an integral part of the fishmeal and fish oil supply chain. Marine raw materials processed from whole fish shall be sourced from suppliers who adhere to responsible fishery management practices.

d. Deforestation Policy

Indirect impacts such as deforestation are addressed by using 100% deforestation-free soy as a feed raw material. Supply chain for sourcing vegetable raw materials shall not originate from areas subject to deforestation or conversion after 14 January 2023. Brazilian soy suppliers apply a 2020 cut-off date for 100% deforestation and conversion free in their soybean value chain. Palm oil, if used, must come from certified sources such as the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) or equivalent. Through our sourcing policy and sustainable procurement we aim to support the global transition towards healthy, good agricultural practices and production.

harvested salmon volume, i.e. all Mowi farming units – freshwater and seawater farms – must be certified according to sustainability standards recognised by the Global Seafood Sustainability Initiative (GSSI): ASC, BAP and/or Global GAP.

Conducting regular benthic monitoring and surveys, such as the MOM-B analysis, allow us to apply adaptive management of our farming practices to ensure they have minimum impacts on the seabed and surrounding areas. Measures on organic and inorganic loading are considered (see methodological details and thresholds in E4-4. In addition, Mowi engages with stakeholders in the communities we operate to share results of our environmental performance, impacts and solutions, including benthic impact.

The ability to determine where our impacts may occur within the environment has always been critical to our industry and a key tool in assessing the environmental sustainability of our farming locations is the use of environmental modelling. Modelling is used in the first instance to demonstrate that proposed fish farming locations are likely to comply with minimum environmental standards relating to the spatial extent and intensity of any impacts. Reliable models such as the NewDepomod are crucial in ensuring accurate environmental assessment of our sites. In Scotland, a new framework for surveying was implemented by the Scottish Environmental Protection Agency (SEPA). Mowi Scotland continues monitoring in line with SEPA's new enhanced monitoring framework and we anticipate a progressive improvement from previous compliance statistics.

We also use dispersion modelling to predict benthic impact, determine optimal site locations and fallowing where necessary between production cycles to facilitate seabed recovery. In Norway, we are testing new technologies to minimize organic loading. This is done using underwater faeces collecting systems which through a lift-up system can collect the organic waste to be further processed and upcycled. In Scotland, we are investigating the co-farming of salmon and shellfish to examine ways to improve the productivity and environmental sustainability of marine aquaculture practices. In Scotland and Canada we run eDNA projects, using a DNA tool for monitoring of biodiversity in the deposit footprint and aiming to use eDNA to assess seabed compliance with regulatory standards. In Chile we are doing seabed remediation with nano bubbles, to restore anaerobic sites. We also conduct annual surveys after peak biomass at marine farms.

Inorganic loading and the risk of eutrophication is assessed by either water quality measurements as requested by certification schemes like ASC (nitrogen and phosphorus), existing classification of water quality as defined by EU Water frame directive or chlorophyll trends used as a proxy of eutrophication. In Canada for example, using Google Earth Engine Global Eutrophication Watch, assessments of temporal and spatial patterns of satellite-derived chlorophyll-a data over a twenty-year period (2003-2022), indicated overall none of Mowi's marine production regions in Canada have increasing chlorophyll trends indicating eutrophication.

Through the implementation of innovate projects such as Smart Farming Technology, autonomous feeding and best practices we ensure efficient feeding and minimize pellet loss. We also keep stocking densities at sea well below 25 kg/m3 to ensure we stay within the carrying capacities of the environment.

Actions related to wildlife interaction

It is a priority for Mowi to take preventive action and implement measures to avoid negative impact such as wildlife mortalities. We monitor human-wildlife interactions, apply operational best practices and have preventive measures and equipment in place to avoid and minimise negative impact on local wildlife. All bird and mammal mortalities are registered with a special emphasis on red listed species. To mitigate mortalities we customized bird nets with appropriate mesh size and use lasers to minimise risk of bird entanglements, and install predator exclusion nets to protect stocks and minimise mammal mortalities. Such equipment is to be maintained and installed for optimal use at the farm. All bird and mammal mortalities as registered and assessed locally, ensuring that mitigation measures and strategy is adapted to prevent mortality incidents from happening again.

We also run several projects related to wild salmonids and other species. We participate in surveillance of rivers and tracking of anadromous wild stocks, and in development of methods for surveillance of effects and tolerance of organic material on corals and sponges. In Scotland we support restoration projects aiming at establishing self sustaining populations of Atlantic salmon.

Actions related to escapes

We do several mitigation actions to achieve zero escapes, such as implementation of technical requirements to equipment and regular inspections at both sea- and freshwater sites.

In 2023, Norway introduced the updated NYTEK 23 regulations, which implement updated and stringent requirements for the design, operation, and especially the escape-proofing of marine aquaculture facilities. Complementing these regulations, the NS 9415:2021 standard provides detailed technical specifications for the equipment used in these facilities, such as mooring components. The NS 9415:2021 standard is vital for ensuring the durability and safety of equipment under the challenging conditions of aquaculture operations. Together, NYTEK 23 and NS 9415:2021 form a comprehensive framework for the sustainable and secure management of aquaculture facilities in Norway.

Requirements related to freshwater equipment are complemented by technical regulation and the Norwegian standard NS 9416:2013 for land-based aquaculture facilities, also to prevent escape incidents from flow-through and Recirculating Aquaculture Systems. The NS 9416:2013 is up for revision and Mowi participates in the technical committee, sharing knowledge from our continuous work on preventing escape incidents from land-based aquaculture facilities. All land based production facilities in Norway are undergoing a technical assessment periodically and are approved according to the Norwegian regulations for "escape proof" production of smolt documented by an independent assessor. Mowi adheres to these technical standards and recognised their importance to prevent escape incidents.

A Scottish technical standard for finfish aquaculture is also in place. In Scotland, all new sites and sites converted to larger 160m pens have net and mooring systems which exceed the Scottish technical standard. There has been an active programme of mooring grid upgrades, net replacement and pen improvements throughout 2024 to exceed both the Scottish and Norwegian technical standards.

Nearly all our farms in Scotland have now been fully updated with high-specification nets and moorings.

In Chile, a technical standard has been established in 2020 with standardised methodology for the information collection, processing and calculations of the engineering study, and technical specifications of the fish farming structures. The standard mandatory semi-annual verifications and annual certifications to all industry farms, is in place in Chile.

We are working with simplification of anti-fouling strategies that minimise the need for net cleaning and for better sea lice treatment strategies that minimise net handling. We have consolidated net and antifouling strategies, using only a select range of high performing concepts in all farming entities including a more strategic use of several HDPE products that last longer and are more abrasion resistant. In several business units we are working with new projects to improve predation control through optimising our net designs, and have implement secondary nets where needed. At several of our sites in Norway, we have rolled out robotic net cleaning as part of our Smart Farming strategy, replacing usage of cleaning vessels which significantly reduces the risk of net damage and therefore escape incidents.

All site personnel are trained in Mowi's Farming Excellence Program – Zero Escape. The training aims to reaffirm our internal standard for seawater and freshwater management, including the sharing of experiences and lessons to be learned after escapes, and the highlighting of behavioural changes that can make a difference. After each incident we share main learning points with all site managers globally using our escape info sheets (in Norwegian, English and Spanish).

We have an increased focus on escape prevention by the operational and management teams across our farming operations. We have established a Global Escape Action Group to define key improvement priorities, track progress and share learned experiences, all to ensure fish escapes are avoided at all costs. A sub-group was established to focus only on defining the equipment needs for exposed sites. This work is being done together with our suppliers. In Norway, a weather risk matrix has been developed and applied. When establishing new sites, this risk matrix is used to optimize pen design. We have also our internal global standard (ONE Mowi) which sets minimum requirements regarding equipment certification, training, risk-assessment, reporting, mitigation, drills and checklists.

We will continue our efforts to reduce the number of escape incidents by strengthening our collaboration and training with equipment and service suppliers, improving our training programmes to minimise human error, ensuring that best practices for delousing operations are followed, and implementing antifouling strategies that reduce the need for net cleaning. In addition, zero-escapes has been linked to bonus remuneration in the senior management team.

Actions related to sourcing of feed raw materials

As outlined in our sustainable feed policy, we require that all salmon feed suppliers are Global GAP, ASC or BAP certified by an accredited certification body (CB) and we collaborate with suppliers

E4-3

Biodiversity and ecosystems-related actions and resources

Preserving biodiversity is a corner stone in our sustainability strategy, and is directly linked to all of our other sustainability programs in our strategy and our work to mitigate and minimise the risk of negative impact on biodiversity and ecosystems. We are committed to being a part of the solution to global challenges and take actions to prevent, mitigate and remediate actual and potential impacts, and to address risks and opportunities. Following the guidelines defined in ESRS 2 MDR-A, Mowi has initiated several key actions connected to our Biodiversity and Ecosystems-related material topics.

Actions related to seabed conditions

Benthic conditions in the seabed is of critical importance for Mowi, to ensure we coexist in a sustainable way with the surrounding natural environment.

Third-party certification remains key to our sustainability strategy. Mowi's Certifications Policy states that 100% of our annual

of agricultural raw materials to promote adherence to good agricultural practices. We also require 100% traceability of feed raw materials.

All soya must be deforestation free and certified according to the ProTerra and Roundtable for responsible soy standards or their equivalents such as the Europe Soya Standard. Palm oil, if used, must come from certified sources such as the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) or equivalent. Through our sourcing policy and sustainable procurement we aim to support the global transition towards healthy, good agricultural practices and production.

Mowi supports and closely follows the ongoing development and testing of emerging feed raw materials. This is the case for oils rich in Omega-3, as well as novel protein sources from sustainable production. Within this scope, we include products derived from insects, alcohol fermentation, CO2 capture and forestry.

Several of our vegetable feed raw material suppliers are engaged in projects to promote good agricultural practices. Our Soy Protein Concentrate (SPC) suppliers from Brazil (Caramuru, CJ Selecta and Bunge/Imcopa) are implementing several projects focusing on nutrient management, responsible water use, integrated pest management, improved farming techniques that ensure minimum land use and soil health, and Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) training for farmers. Our SPC suppliers are engaged in several sustainability programmes like ESG in the field (from CJ Selecta) or Sustentar (from Caramuru) which focus on several innovative approaches to manage water and nutrients responsibly. Examples of these are, compensatory measures to recover areas of native vegetation and restoration or maintenance of native vegetation of riparian forests, steep slopes and hilltops as well as defining and promoting regenerative agriculture. In addition, our suppliers focus on implementation of good practices for water management and irrigation, maintaining the quality and quantity of natural water resources, minimising the use of energy giving preference to renewable sources and adopting good practices on nutrient use. In 2024, we provided direct support and guidance to suppliers on water stewardship which included several training events with the SPC suppliers and also with other vegetable feed raw materials to explain what good agricultural practices mean as well as the identification of best practices to improve efficiency.

Good agricultures practices also include responsible use of pesticides. As an example, through our Proterra Certification, we ensure that the Soy Protein Concentrate used in our feed production adheres to several requirements including; 1. pesticides listed in the WHO classes (la, lb lists, Rotterdam Convention and Stockholm Convention), as well as pesticides forbidden by local, national, and regional law, are not used; 2. programme of pesticide rotation designed to minimise development of pest resistance; 3. proper handling, storage and disposal of pesticides according to manufacturers' instructions and legal requirements and 4. application methods that minimise harm to human health, wildlife, plant biodiversity, and water and air quality.

Through research collaboration with scientists from institutes and universities, as well as with industrial partners, we identify and source alternative ingredients - including responsibly produced

plant proteins and oils - that provide the necessary nutrients for state-of-the-art salmon feed. As a result, we have significantly reduced our use of fishmeal in feeds, while maintaining growth performance, fish health and product quality.

In 2024, Mowi continued to work together with our Soy Protein Concentrate (SPC) suppliers, ProTerra and the other feed companies within the Aquaculture Dialogue on sustainable soy sourcing from Brazil. This dialogue aims to further develop sustainable sourcing from Brazil by achieving more transparency through traceability tools. In 2024, we continued our work to ensure a robust Monitoring, Reporting and Verification (MRV) system. Mowi's SPC suppliers from Brazil have passed with success a MRV audit on the Proterra Foundation Monitoring and Verification Guide. This confirms that the commitment made by our suppliers to achieve a deforestation-free supply base has been achieved. This bold and historic move sets a new benchmark for global sustainable supply chains and has been recognised by external stakeholders such as WWF and the Rainforest Foundation.

In 2024, Traceability Certificates of Compliance (TCCs) continued to be issued to provide further documentation of origin (down to municipality level). The TCCs include information on volume of the consignment changing ownership, the lot numbers and volumes of each lot of material contained in the consignment, identification of seller and buyer, date of the transaction and information verifying that the specific lot of material referenced in the TCC complies with the relevant threshold for GMO.

In terms or raw material development, we strive towards independence from specific raw material sources be they of marine origin or those derived from commodities including wheat, soya, corn, peas or beans etc. This will secure our cost competitiveness in the face of fluctuations in commodity markets and give us the power to catalyse change in the supply chain through our ability to switch between sustainable, responsible, solutions when circumstances dictate it. In seeking to expand our spectrum of available raw materials, we continue our efforts by validating promising candidates including those derived as by- or co-products from other feed, food and even non-food industries. Within this scope, we include products derived from insects, alcohol fermentation, CO2 capture and forestry.

Biodiversity offsets

Mowi don't have any biodiversity offsets.

Incorporation of local and indigenous knowledge

When needed, Mowi's materiality analysis, strategies, policies and targets are adjusted to reflect stakeholder, including local communities and Indigenous Right Holders inputs. Our environmental monitoring plans are developed together with Indigenous Rights Holders and nature-related impacts, risks and opportunities communicated transparently. Mowi recognizes the Indigenous right to self-determination and the rights of Nations to meaningful participation in decisions on matters that impact those rights. Especially when new operational areas are explored, engagement with local Indigenous Rights Holders is of high importance to Mowi. In Canada such engagement process aims to provide the local First Nation community with a full, comprehensive understanding of the operations and production cycle of salmon farming. Based on this shared knowledge, the community can assess all benefits and potential risks and make an informed decision on whether they wish to make a mutual beneficial agreement. Our agreements are long enough to provide business certainty and include a five-year review cycle that allows us to incorporate input from the Nations into our long term production plans. Implementation committees are also established to ensure continuous communication with the community through recurring meetings, regular reporting, indigenous presence on our farms and site tours. Additionally, our Community Partnerships team maintains a physical presence in the areas we farm which allows us to readily address community concerns while providing further opportunities for engagement via community events, training, employment, site tours and student internships.

E4-4

Biodiversity and ecosystem-related targets

We have set targets related to material biodiversity and ecosystem topics that help us track the effectiveness of our policies and the actions that we take.

Our work to secure a sustainable balance with nature is emphasised through Mowi's global company policies on biodiversity topics and our targets and KPI's connected to biodiversity. The Kunming Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF), which is also aligned with the European Green Deal and the EU's Biodiversity Strategy for 2030, have been used to develop Mowi's sustainability strategy and program, Leading the Blue Revolution Plan, and the biodiversity related targets.

Several key steps in our value chain are directly dependent on specific nature services needed for production. This ranges from the sourcing of marine and vegetable feed ingredients to the coastal marine waters where we farm our salmon until harvest. It is critical that we raise awareness of the nature-linked impacts and dependencies in our own operations and in our supply chain. Awareness is the foundation for Mowi to take responsibility and act to protect natural capital. Climate change, land, -freshwater- and sea-use change, pollution and invasive species are four of five main drivers of biodiversity loss, and we have assessed the risk of contributing to these driving forces and how to mitigate such risks in both our direct operations and our supply chain. Our targets applies to Mowi's operations globally, and underscore our commitment to protecting biodiversity and providing food from the ocean in a way that respect our planet.

Mowi does not to use biodiversity offsets in setting our targets. Instead, we focus on direct actions to avoid, minimize, and restore biodiversity impacts.

Climate change

The aquaculture industry is dependent on a thriving and stable aquatic ecosystem. A healthy, stable ecosystem condition provides the support of functions such as currents, temperature and oxygen levels needed for our salmon to thrive in the sea. Mowi also depends on the ecosystem's ability to regulate and protect against

the effects of climate change driven extreme weather events, such as landslides, extreme heat and fire hazards. Our operations can be vulnerable to climate change, particularly rising seawater temperatures and ocean acidification. Both our direct operation and our up- and downstream operations has an impact on climate change through GHG emissions, especially in our upstream operations through sourcing of feed raw materials. Despite its potential negative impact, climate change represents an opportunity for aquaculture as the world needs more climate friendly food production. Food from the ocean, including sustainable aquaculture, is considered a solution to climate change, due to its low carbon footprint. We have committed to mitigate our contribution to climate change which is a significant driver to biodiversity loss, the targets is disclosed in ESRS E1.

Land, freshwater and sea-use change

In our direct operations a potential risk is linked with changes in regulations for freshwater and land-use change, as expansion or new smolt production or processing plants could require conversion of land and freshwater use. For upstream activities, the main risk is land use change and deforestation linked with sourcing of vegetable feed raw materials. Considering high risk natural commodities, soy is used in our direct feed production operations as well as upstream by external feed suppliers. Opportunities for Mowi are linked with improved resource efficiency and contribution to increase the availability of less natural-resource intensive raw materials. We aim to minimize freshwater-use through our science-based targets on freshwater and sea-use change through sustainable sourcing of marine feed ingredients, which is disclosed in ESRS E3.

In relation to sustainable sourcing of feed, and vegetable raw materials and the indirect impact on land-use change, Mowi has specific targets, every year, to;

  • 100% traceability of feed raw materials
  • 100% of soy originated from deforestation-free areas
  • 100% of palm oil is certified (RSPO or equivalent)

and, by 2030;

achieve 10-15% ingredients from emerging feed raw materials

Pollution

Producing salmon in pens means that organic substances from fish faeces and excess feed can be released to surrounding waters and potentially accumulate in the seabed. Failing monitoring requirements and having poor benthic conditions could have financial implications (longer fallowing period, imposed reduction of biomass) as well as negative reputational effect.

Despite responsible use and residue control aligned with regulatory compliance, there is a reputational risk for Mowi when using antimicrobials. This is linked with the concern for antimicrobial resistance. Through good husbandry and management practices we minimise the need for antibiotics and ensure good effect if and when needed. Healthy stocks and good fish welfare are basic prerequisites for our industry to succeed and give the opportunity for growth in the future. We are aware of pollution as one of the main drivers to biodiversity loss, and have committed to mitigate our impact through sustainability certification;

  • 100% of yearly harvest volumes sustainably certified by a GSSIrecognised standard
  • 100% of sites with restored seabed impact (i.e. within the carrying capacity of the environment), every production cycle

Protecting wild species and key biodiversity areas

For Mowi there is a risk related to marine protected areas, and how they will be governed and potentially changed in the future. If regulations for existing operations or sectors in the area would become stricter there might be consequences in terms of changes in allowed biomass, fallowing periods or other operational requirements leading to increased costs or limitation of production. Opportunities for Mowi would come from the recognition of the coexistence between salmon farming and nature, allowing the blue sector to grow and contribute to dietary shifts at scale.

In our direct operations we must ensure we do not cause any negative impact on marine wildlife and wild fish species, there is a reputational risk connected to escaped fish and their potential impact on wild salmon populations through genetic introgression. Opportunities are linked with continuous improvement towards our targets of zero escapes and wildlife mortalities to support sustainable coexistence of aquaculture and the marine environment. We pledge to pay special attention to protecting wild species and key biodiversity areas and have committed specific targets every year to;

  • Zero birds and mammals mortalities linked with our operations
  • Zero escapes

Ecological thresholds and allocations

Climate change is considered one of the most pressing global challenges our planet is facing and is inextricably linked in cause and effect to the other direct drivers of biodiversity loss. Mowi has committed to the 1.5°C threshold to help tackle these challenges.

National thresholds on benthic is used when setting the target "100% of sites with restored seabed impact, every production cycle"

In Norway, seabed quality standards are defined by the Fisheries Directorate. The MOM-B surveys are performed regularly by third-party companies under and in the closest vicinity of the net pens, and are based on indicators such as pH and redox, sensory parameters, and presence and/or absence of macrofauna. The performance of these indicators against predefined thresholds categorises the farming location into different environmental conditions: 1. Low, 2. Medium, 3. High-organic loading and 4. Organic overloading.

In Ireland, national compliance is based on positive redox potential. In Scotland, classification is based on SEPA's criteria for seabed environmental quality standards.

In Chile, classification is based on Sernapesca's criteria for seabed quality.

In Canada West, seabed quality standards are defined by the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Aquaculture Activities Regulation. Compliance is based on sediment free sulphides at soft bottom sites and the presence/absence of Beggiatoa sp. and Opportunistic Polychaete Complex (OPC) at hard bottom sites.

In Canada East, standards are defined by the Aquaculture Activities Regulations (AAR) and the Provincial - Annual Environmental Monitoring Programme, based on the sulphide concentrations, presence/absence of Beggiatoa sp. and Opportunistic Polychaete Complex (OPC) at hard bottom sites.

The Group Management Team and the Global Sustainability Networks have oversight of the group's environmental footprint, biodiversity and natural capital impacts. They work to meet Mowi's many specific targets and criteria that relate to the preservation of biodiversity and natural capital.

Sites located in biodiversity-sensitive areas

We have screened and mapped all direct operational sites to assess if they are located in areas of high biodiversity value, such as areas of significant water risk or within the borders of areas designated for protection at national or sub-national levels, wetlands protected under the Ramsar convention, UNESCO world heritage sites and key biodiversity areas (KBAs). For this purpose, the Integrated Biodiversity Assessment Tool (IBAT) was used. The screening resulted in 66 sites located in biodiversity sensitive areas. None of these sites have any documented negative impact with regards to deterioration of natural and species habitats, or to the disturbance of the species for which the protected area has been designated.

  • % inclusion of emerging feed raw materials

100% traceability of feed raw materials

All ingredients, marine as well as non-marine in origin, which are used in the production of our feeds, are fully traceable (for marine raw materials, please see the tables on the following pages). None of our raw materials originate from illegal, unregulated and unreported (IUU) catches, or from fish species classified as endangered on the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) red list. We aim at having all our marine raw materials sourced from suppliers who adhere to responsible fishery management practices. In 2024, we sourced a high proportion of marine ingredients from the northern hemisphere. We tailor our feeds to match the changing requirements of the fish through their life-cycle.

% Soy Proterra certified and % Palm oil RSPO or equivalent certified

100% of our soy originated from deforestation-free areas, non-GM (not genetically modified) and was either Proterra or Organic certified. Mowi has conducted a risk-assessment of the soy supply chain, which is available in our Sustainable Salmon Feed Policy. Soy sourcing has a low risk from a nutrition quality and certification perspective while it has a medium risk from a climate exposure, price increase and reputational perspective. We will continue to work closely with our soy suppliers to minimise those risks including work through Proterra certification and to continue supporting MRV (Monitoring, Reporting and Verification) audits to our Brazilian suppliers of soy protein concentrate (Caramuru, Imcopa/Bunge and CJ Selecta), already initiated in 2022. In 2024, we continued our work towards verifying that the commitment has been achieved to all direct suppliers. Independent auditors conduct an annual review of the effectiveness of supplier procurement controls to ensure only approved purchases are made. This includes several checks including satellite monitoring.

Soy purchased from Brazil was 100% ProTerra certified and originates from the states of Matto Grosso, Minas Gerais and Goiás. The ProTerra Standard is based on ten principles, focusing on biodiversity conservation, environmental management and effective environmental services, the protection of Amazon, Cerrado and Chaco biomes, the protection of community rights and the promotion of working and agricultural best practices especially related to sustainable land use and reducing the application of

% inclusion of emerging feed raw materials

We pay attention on expanding the raw materials basket for fish feed production. It is well recognised that the industry has moved on from the initial dependence on fishmeal and fish oil through the inclusion of other types of protein- and lipid raw materials. A better understanding of Atlantic salmon nutrient requirements through the various stages of the fish's life cycle has allowed for the inclusion of a range of emerging raw materials in our salmon feed. We support and closely follow the ongoing development and testing of emerging raw materials. This is the case for oils rich in Omega-3, as well as novel protein sources from sustainable production. In 2024,

Mowi Feed included 4% (4%) emerging feed raw materials in its feed composition (which includes algal oils, pea protein concentrate and krill meal).d

Mowi is disclosing numbers of escape incidents and fish escaped as entity specific metrics in relations to the impact driver invasive alien species.

In 2024, we experienced 12 (4) escape incidents resulting in a total of 88 629 fish (3 497 in 2023), representing 0.05% of the total number of fish we had in sea in 2024, and the main causes and mitigation actions for each incident are detailed above.

Mowi is disclosing the following entity specific metrics related to the impact driver pollution: % of harvest volumes sustainably certified by a GSSIrecognized standard % of sites with restored seabed impact % of harvest volumes sustainably certified 100% of harvested volumes in 2024 were sustainably certified by a Global Sustainable Seafood Initiative (GSSI)-recognised standard: the Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC), Best Aquaculture Practices (BAP), or Global GAP. At the end of 2024, Mowi accounted for a total of 167 (148) sites ASC we are working with smolt producers to share best practices and certification requirements, to ensure that if external sourcing is needed, the suppliers are at least Global Gap certified. 99,6% of the harvested volumes in Norway were Global Gap certified in 2024, the non-GSSI volume was due to early harvest as a result of acute gill disease. In Canada we have reduced the number of ASC certified sites, from 2 to 0, yet 100% of the harvested volumes remained BAP certified. Scotland increased the number of ASC farms from 37 to 40 and maintained 100% of the harvested volumes with Global Gap certification. In our smaller farming entities, Iceland and Faroes, the respective number of ASC certified farms in 2024 were 5 and 2, while Faroes is also 100% Global Gap certified. Ireland continued to be 100% organic and Global Gap certified. Public reporting information for our ASC sites is available at asc-aqua.org and our

certified, representing 59% of our active seawater farming facilities. The largest increase originated from Chile where we increased the number of ASC certified sites from 14 to 23. In Chile, there was an early harvest due to jellyfish, just prior to the BAP certification being successfully obtained, leading to 99,75% of the harvest volumes being BAP certified in 2024. We have also increased the number of ASC certified sites in Norway from 88 to 97. In Norway, public facing ASC dashboard. % of sites with restored seabed impact According to national seabed quality standards*, results show that, on average, 89% (94%) of our sea sites surveyed in 2024 have a minimal impact on faunal communities and/or sediment chemistry near to the fish pens. In Canada East, Iceland, Region North and West in Norway, 100% of our sites were classified as very good or good. When the impact on the seabed is considered unsatisfactory (Norway: three sites in region South and one in region Mid; Scotland: three sites in Western Isles-Skye and four in region Mainland; Canada West: one site in Central Coast Region; Chile: one site in eleventh region; Ireland: one site in Northwest of Ireland; Faroes: one site Haldórsvik A-87) we take corrective action. This may include stopping or reducing production, repositioning the pens and/or increasing the fallow period, i.e. the time between production cycles, to allow the seabed time to recover from organic loading.

*The national seabed quality standards and thresholds are disclosed under Ecological thresholds and allocations in E4-4.

Wildlife interactions

Mowi considers protecting wild species and key biodiversity areas as highly relevant for our direct operations from a risk and opportunity perspective, we therefore disclose the following entity specific metrics related to protecting wild species:

Wildlife interactions (birds and mammals mortalities linked with our operations)

In 2024, we experienced accidental mortalities in Norway, Faroes, Scotland and Canada. All bird and mammal mortalities are registered with a special emphasis on red listed species. Awareness of such species in the nearby areas of our operations becomes important to ensure we prioritise our efforts where it is the most important.

Mowi's core business, production and sale of Atlantic salmon, is not covered by the taxonomy. We have studied potential economic activities in our value chain both upstream and downstream, and at this point, the only potential relevant economic activity we have identified is the freight of salmon performed by chartered wellboats. The total taxonomy-defined opex and related capex (IFRS 16 right of use asset) for

Mowi with regards to use of wellboats for freight is considered immaterial for the group, as the main purpose and activity of these wellboats is treatment and processing. Hence the wellboats are not considered eligible under economic activity 6.10 for Mowi, as this economic activity is related to freight water transport.

Examining substantial contribution criteria

All potential taxonomy-eligible activities are assessed with regards to the technical screening criteria and also if they substantially contribute to the mitigation and/or adaptation objectives.

Examining the principle of doing no significant harm to other environmental objectives

Further assessment of technical screening criteria for taxonomyeligible activities. To verify compliance, the existing sustainability strategy including environmental procedures, waste management processes and other relevant procedures and policies are analysed to determine compliance.

Verifying compliance with minimum social safeguards

The Code of Conduct describes Mowi ASA's commitment and requirements in connection with ethical issues relevant to business practice and personal conduct. Mowi ASA will, in its business activities, comply with applicable laws and regulations, and act in an ethical, sustainable and socially responsible manner.

The Code of Conduct has been communicated to employees, and each employee is expected to make a personal commitment to abide by the Code of Conduct. The third-party-operated whistleblower channel facilitates the reporting of concerns about potential violations of the law and breaches of Mowi's Code of Conduct in all areas.

Mowi will comply with all applicable competition laws and Compliance with competition laws is included a separate section in the Code of Conduct.

Our commitment to human rights is closely tied in with our vision Leading the Blue Revolution, our Sustainability Plan, our Code of Conduct, and the business strategy for the Mowi Group. Our commitment to human rights is expected and required from our organisation, our supply chain, and all our stakeholders. Mowi's commitment to human rights is based upon internationally recognised human rights principles, such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the United Nations Global Compact, The United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and the International Labour Organisation's Core Conventions.

Mowi has implemented the EU Taxonomy disclosure in accordance with EU Regulation 2020/852, and the supplementing objectives in its Commission Delegated Regulation 2023/2485 and 2023/2486, that require the disclosure of the environmental performance of the company's assets and economic activities. The regulation establishes the criteria to determine whether an economic activity qualifies as environmentally sustainable and specifies quantitative economic performance indicators to disclose the degree of sustainability. The activities defined to be eligible under the EU Taxonomy regulations are listed within the delegated acts and continue to evolve with review. The regulation has been enacted in Norwegian legislation.

An activity is "taxonomy-eligible" if it is described in the regulation, irrespective of whether it complies with the technical screening criteria. An activity is "taxonomy-aligned" if it contributes substantially to one or more environmental objectives, does no significant harm to any of the other objectives, is carried out in compliance with minimum safeguards and comply with the technical screening criteria set out in the Taxonomy delegated acts.

The Taxonomy Regulation is a developing regulation and does not yet cover all sustainable activities in the market. The salmon industry is not at the core of the current legislation and therefore Mowi has no relevant economic activities to report on. Mowi supports the goals set by the EU Taxonomy and welcomes the further development of the regulation.

Mowi's core business, i.e. production and sale of Atlantic salmon, is not covered by the taxonomy. We have studied potential economic activities in our value chain both upstream and downstream, and at this point, the only relevant economic activity we have identified is the freight of salmon ready for harvest performed by chartered wellboats. Mowi does not own wellboats and has no relevant capex or turnover in 2024. The total taxonomy-defined opex for Mowi with regards to use of wellboats for freight of harvested fish is considered immaterial for the group. As the taxonomy regulation evolves we believe to have a large part of our capex, turnover and opex considered both eligible and aligned in the future.

The EU Taxonomy implementation process

Mowi follows a step-by-step process to identify eligible activities and analyse alignment of its activities based on the Taxonomy regulation. This process is overseen by the Audit Committee and management. The main steps of this process are:

Identifying taxonomy-eligible economic activities of the Group

The Delegated Act on Sustainable Activities for Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation and the Complementary Climate Delegated Act have been carefully reviewed and analysed. The process is updated on a regular basis. The conclusion for the 2024 review was that none of Mowi's activities are taxonomy-eligible at this point.

Mowi has also established a group-wide policy to combat fraud and corruption as part of its risk management, internal control and corporate governance process.

Mowi have implemented a Group Tax Policy that sets standards for the way tax decisions are made and subsequent activity executed in Mowi Group. Mowi Group's business activities shall be compliant with current tax legislation and reporting obligations. Also, according to the policy, all tax activity shall be in accordance with the Code of Conduct and Anti-Fraud and Anti-Corruption policy.

Determining the alignment status

As we have concluded that no activities are eligible, this step is not relevant for 2024.

Calculating financial KPIs

We are calculating financial metrics associated with the economic activities identified in this process based on the accounting methodology.

EU Taxonomy accounting principles

Mowi's activities follow the legal boundaries of the group.

The KPIs reported in the EU Taxonomy are presented in separate tables for turnover, capex and opex as defined in the regulation. Total turnover is group total sales. External sales connected to the economic activities are reported as Taxonomy-eligible turnover, either Taxonomy-aligned or not Taxonomy-aligned. See also note 5 in in the group financial statements.

Total capex includes the line item 'Additions' for 2024 (excluding goodwill) in note 9 (Intangible assets) and note 10 (Property, plant and equipment), and the line items 'New contracts' and 'Extensions" for 2024 in note 29 (Leases) to the group financial statements. Taxonomy-eligible capex, either Taxonomy-aligned or not Taxonomy-aligned, are the investments related to the assets or processes associated with the respective economic activities.

Total opex covers maintenance expenses, short-term lease costs, non-capitalised research and development costs and expenditures relating to the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment. The Taxonomy-eligible opex includes the corresponding direct non-capitalised costs associated to the economic activities, reported either under Taxonomy-aligned or not Taxonomy-aligned. Opex represents a sub-set of expenses presented, primarily in the line items Salary and personnel expenses and Other operating expenses in Mowi's group statement of comprehensive income. Operating expenditures are described as a share of the expenses included in the sub-total EBIT in the income statement:

  • research and development
  • building renovation measures
  • short-term leases
  • repair and maintenance

Research and development costs cover projects that do not meet the specific criteria for capitalisation as intangible assets. Building renovation measures covers repair and maintenance of buildings including green improvement projects, still a relative small proportion of opex in Mowi. Short-term leases are described in note 29 to the consolidated financial statements. Repair and maintenance expenses include Mowi's costs not qualifying for capitalisation for relevant assets.

Environmentally sustainable economic activities

In order for an economic activity to qualify as environmentally sustainable under the EU Taxonomy it is required to substantially contribute to one or more of the following environmental objectives: Climate change mitigation, Climate change adaption, Sustainable use and protection of water and marine resource,Transition to a circular economy, Pollution prevention and control, and Protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems. The assessment of Mowis economic activities for 2024 is summarized as follows:

Total Eligible Activity 0 0 0
Non Eligible 5 617 744 376
TOTAL 5 617 744 376

EU taxonomy assessment for Mowi specific activity

Mowi has assessed material taxonomy eligible activities using both a financial materiality threshold per KPI and our business model, identifying key strategic activities. Mowi has identified zero eligible activities to report on in the EU Taxonomy. The report includes both mandatory and voluntary disclosures. Mowi has carried out the assessments for Taxonomy-eligibility and Taxonomy-alignment based on the best interpretation of the Taxonomy Regulation and the Climate Delegated Act and the currently available guidelines from the European Commission.

For each economic activity, Mowi has conducted assessments of the 'substantial contribution' and 'do no significant harm' criteria to determine alignment. Minimum safeguards were assessed on Group level.

Eligible activities

As explained in the text above, there are no eligible activities, and thus the technical screening assessment and consideration of the criteria of 'substantial contribution' and 'does no significant harm' assessments are not relevant for Mowi. The Taxonomy Regulation specifies that in addition to the 'substantial contribution and 'do no significant harm' criteria, an economic activity can be considered

environmentally sustainable only if it is carried out in compliance with the minimum safeguards. The minimum safeguards prevent activities from being labelled sustainable if they for example violate human or labour rights, engage in corrupt, anti-competitive or noncompliant taxation practices. Compliance can be assessed from two angles according to the published guidance from the Platform on Sustainable Finance: i) There are adequate processes and controls in place in the areas of human rights, corruption, taxation and fair competition and ii) there are no breaches or violations.

Introduction

Mowi acknowledges the actual and potential impacts on its own workforce, as identified in ESRS 2 IRO-1 (Description of the processes to identify and assess material impacts, risks, and opportunities), do originate from and are connected to the undertaking's strategy and business models. These impacts inform and contribute to adapting Mowi's strategy and business model to ensure alignment with sustainability goals. Mowi recognizes the relationship between material risks and opportunities arising from impacts and dependencies on its own workforce and its strategy and business model. The identification and understanding of such risks and opportunities help Mowi to implement effective measures to mitigate negative impacts and capitalize on positive impacts to facilitate sustainable growth. Mowi ensures that all people in its own workforce who could be materially impacted by the undertaking, are included in the scope of its disclosure under ESRS 2.

These material impacts, encompass impacts connected with our own operations and its value chain, including products or services offered, as well as impacts through its business relationships. To identify potential risks and adverse impacts, we have conducted assessments and engaged with our stakeholders as part of the HR due diligence process. Our main tools include Global Employee Engagement Survey, data from our whistleblowing assessments, Equality, Non-Discrimination and Gender Pay Report and Transparency Act statement. To further understand the risk and opportunities in our own workforce we apply country risk ratings based on global indexes, our Lost Time Incidents reports (LTI), and absence reporting.

The types of employees and non-employees in Mowi's own workforce who is subject to material impacts by its operations include full-time and part-time employees, self-employed individuals, and people provided by third-party undertakings primarily engaged in employment activities. All these individuals are considered in Mowi's sustainability efforts.

Our operations are divided into 3 business areas; Feed, Farming and Sales & Marketing, and in all business areas our workforce consists of both blue collar and white collar workers. Most of our workforce are blue collar workers in all business areas. Blue

collar workers in Feed are operators in our feed plants, and blue collar workers in Farming are both in primary processing facilities and on land- and sea sites. For Sales & Marketing the blue collar workers are operators mainly at primary and secondary processing plants and within logistics. White-collar employees across all three business areas primarily consist of office workers spanning a diverse range of position families.

Since most of our workforce is made up of blue-collar workers, the impact, risks, and opportunities related to our material topics are primarily focused on this group across all business areas.

Mowi have not identified any material impact on our workforce from the transition plans aimed at reducing negative environmental effects and achieving greener, climate-neutral operations.

We have conducted assessments to understand how different workforce segments, especially those in high-risk roles or locations, might be disproportionately affected by our operations. This understanding helps Mowi tailor its sustainability initiatives to address specific vulnerabilities and safeguard the well-being of its workforce. The first step of our Human rights due diligence process has been to conduct a thorough assessment of the current workforce and status.

Our main tools include Global Employee Engagement Survey, data from our whistleblowing assessments, Equality, Non-Discrimination and Gender Pay report, and Transparency Act statement. To further understand the risk and opportunities in our own workforce we analyse our lost time Incidents reports (LTI), and absence reporting. All business units are developing action plans, and some of the business units are also completing local Human rights due diligence processes.

To enhance our assessment of actual and potential negative impacts related to child labour, forced labour, or compulsory labour in non-EU countries or regions, we utilize global indexes to identify high-risk areas and have pinpointed several countries with potential risks.

Policies

Our policies cover every employee within Mowi regardless of employment type (full-time, part-time, contract-based). We have also tailored specific policies to address the unique needs and challenges faced by different groups within our workforce, such as remote workers, differently abled employees, and those belonging to diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. Through our policies and procedures, Mowi have set a clear tone from the top. Ethical business conduct is a core element in our ability to engender trust and is an integral part of the Mowi Way and our core values.

Our Health and Safety Policy aims for zero accidents and promotes continuous improvement in creating a safe and healthy work environment. It includes guidelines for preventing accidents, minimising risks, and promoting measures that safeguard against work-related injuries and ill health. This policy fosters a culture of trust and accountability, ensuring the well-being of all employees, contractors, and visitors.

Mowi's Human Rights Policy emphasises respect for internationally recognized human rights, including those established in the Universal Declaration on Human Rights and the International Labour Organisation's Core Conventions. The policy promotes equal opportunity, prohibits discrimination and harassment, ensures a

At Mowi, the safety and well-being of our people comes first in everything we do. We are committed to providing a safe, meaningful, and rewarding work environment where our employees can thrive.

S1-SBM-3

Impacts, risks and opportunities

Health and safety

Impact

Our employees are central to Mowi's success, and the sustainable use of resources is deemed viable in the short, medium, and long term as long as we maintain a strong focus on employee health and safety. Ensuring the safety of our workforce is directly tied to Mowi's license to operate, as non-compliance could significantly impact on our ability to attract and retain talent. Our Lost Time Injury (LTI) data underscores that blue-collar workers are exposed to the highest risk of workplace injuries highlighting the importance of targeted measures for this group. The impact is particularly high for blue-collar workers in farming and processing sites, while it is comparatively lower for white-collar employees

Risk

Potential financial risk of non-compliance can be regulatory fines, compensation claims, increased insurance premiums, lost productivity, and potential damage to the company's reputation. Non-compliance may result in certification issues and investor ratings dropping. The risk is high for blue-collar workers in farming and processing, whereas it is significantly lower for white-collar workers.

Opportunity

Keeping our employees safe is linked to Mowi license to operate, and compliance will affect our ability to attract and retain talent. High standards and adherence to regulations enhance our retention and reputation, making us more attractive to potential hires. To mitigate potential negative impacts, we have implemented stringent policies and a comprehensive safety program.

Freedom of association, the existence of works councils and the information, consultation and participation rights of workers

Impact

Our people are key to the Mowi success, and continuation of use of resources is evaluated to be possible in short, medium and long term as Mowi continues to uphold the freedom of association and workers' rights to engage and establish work councils. Our impact is particularly high for blue-collar workers in farming and processing sites, while it is comparatively lower for white-collar employees.

Risk

Potential financial risk can be legal penalties, increased labour disputes, decreased employee morale and productivity, potential strikes, and damage to the company's reputation. The risk is moderate for blue-collar workers in farming and processing, whereas it is low for white-collar workers.

WORKING CONDITIONS

Opportunity

Compliance can affect our ability to attract and retain talent. High standards and adherence to regulations enhance our retention and reputation, making us more attractive to potential hires.

Collective bargaining, including rate of workers covered by collective agreements Impact

Our employees are critical to Mowi's success, and the sustainable use of resources can be linked to the presence of collective bargaining agreements. In most of our business units, these agreements apply to all workers, regardless of their contract type or union membership, reinforcing our commitment to fair practices and resource sustainability. Our impact is moderate for blue-collar workers in farming and processing sites, while it remains relatively low for white-collar employees.

Risk

Potential financial risks of non-compliance can be legal costs, operational disruptions due to strikes or work stoppages, decreased employee morale, higher turnover rates, and damage to the company's reputation. The risk is moderate for blue-collar workers in farming and processing, whereas it is low for white-collar workers.

Opportunity

Compliance can affect our ability to attract and retain talent. High standards and adherence to regulations enhance our retention and reputation, making us more attractive to potential hires.

safe and healthy workplace, prohibits forced and child labour, and respects employees' rights to freedom of association and collective bargaining. The Mowi Human Rights Policy was updated in 2024. The policy was prepared by the Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO) and approved by the Group Management Team (GMT).

The Whistleblowing Policy enhances transparency and communication within the organization by providing clear guidelines for reporting concerns. It ensures that all employees and external stakeholders can report violations without fear of reprisals, fostering an ethical culture and early risk detection.

Our Code of Conduct chapter 4 clearly states that safety and health is primary in everything we do and our requirements that safety should not be compromised for any other business priority. Code of Conduct is under the ownership of the Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO) and has been approved by the Mowi Board of Directors. The Code of Conduct sets the standards of behaviour which we can expect from one another internally, and which external parties can expect from us. The complete Code of Conduct is available at www.mowi.com in seven different languages.

Processes for engaging with own workforce

We take pride in offering safe, meaningful and rewarding job opportunities. We believe in fostering connections across functions and geographies, respecting and valuing all contributions, and creating a work environment where every voice is heard. Our commitment is to build an engaged and diverse workforce that thrives, grows, and remains with the company for the long term. To engage with the people in our workforce we maintain open communication channels, encourage employee representation, and promote a participatory approach in decision-making, especially in matters related to human rights and labour issues.

Mowi engages both directly with our workforce and through workers' representatives. Direct engagement includes regular, structured communication with employees at all levels, ensuring a diverse range of perspectives. Engagement with workers' representatives, such as union leaders or elected employee representatives, supplements this by providing a more formalised channel for collective concerns and feedback.

All business units in Mowi are required to establish and maintain safety committees. The committees have participation from both management and employees, as well as from labour unions where they have representation. All business units have dedicated safety representatives, who have the safety responsibility for all locations and sites in the business unit's operation.

Mowi is committed to the constructive dialogue and cooperation with labour unions and employee representatives and strongly consider these partnerships to be of vital importance to lead and find common solutions for our employees. Engagement is integral at various stages, including strategic planning, policy development, and operational decision-making. We employ a variety of methods, such as digital surveys for broad input, interactive workshops for in-depth discussions, and formal meetings with workers' representatives. This engagement occurs on a regular basis, and additionally, as needed, to address specific issues or changes in the workplace.

The bi-annual global Engagement survey was run in 2023 and attracted an overall response rate of 70%. The results of the survey are compared to three external industry benchmarks, and previous Mowi results. The survey is an important tool for Mowi to better understand how we are performing as an employer and will enable us to map the current state of drivers behind employee engagement and enablement, investigate motivational factors, and map the extent to which everyone has clear direction and the right tools to perform their jobs well. The local management teams are together with employees and employee representatives working with the results to define how this knowledge can be used for improvement.

The operational responsibility for this engagement is vested in our Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO). The CHRO, as a senior executive, ensures that the insights and feedback from our workforce are not only heard, but actively integrated into our operational strategies and policies. This role is key in bridging the gap between workforce perspectives and executive decisionmaking.

Mowi has policies and guidelines on dialogue and cooperation with workers' representatives, focusing on respecting and upholding human rights within our workforce especially on matters related to labour rights, working conditions, and ethical practices. In Mowi group there is no global framework agreement.

To assess the effectiveness of our engagement, we review the rate of implementation of workforce suggestions, employee satisfaction scores, and the resolution rate of issues raised through these engagements. Regular reviews of the outcomes and impacts of agreements with workers' representatives are conducted to ensure alignment with the workforce's needs and expectations.

Mowi recognizes the importance of understanding the specific needs and perspectives of vulnerable groups within our workforce, such as migrant workers and young workers. Several of our business units have established policies and activities to engage migrant workers in our workforce. However, we will continue to develop initiatives aimed at gaining deeper insights into the perspectives of vulnerable groups in our workforce.

In the event of organisational changes in our operations, our company practice is to carry out a fair, lawful and predictable process, by giving notice as early as possible and cooperate in close partnership with the employee representatives in the organisation(s) affected.

We have implemented several initiatives with the primary purpose of delivering positive impacts for our workforce. For example leaders in Mowi, as part of a global company, must have broad cultural insight and a global mindset. We aim to develop our leaders through leadership development and mobility programmes, building a pipeline of leaders who will inspire, lead, and transform the business, the Mowi Way. Our aim is to create an empowering and supportive work environment We actively pursue material opportunities to improve our workforce's engagement and productivity. Current initiatives include adopting advanced technology for better work-life balance, implementing career development programs, and fostering a culture of innovation and inclusion.

followed up fairly, and confidentiality is maintained, with anonymous whistleblowers protected. Whistleblowers reporting in good faith are protected from retaliation, and all information is treated confidentially, with disclosures made only as necessary. The identity of whistleblowers is protected unless written permission is given.

We actively promote awareness of these channels through regular internal communications, training sessions, and induction programs for new employees. Our HR team ensures that employees are aware of and can easily access these channels.

Issues raised through these channels are systematically tracked and monitored.

When management, union representative, group management or human resources receive a report, the receiver shall immediately log the issue into the Whistleblower Channel. The content shall be logged either as an issue of information or as a whistleblower issue to be followed up in accordance with the procedure. Business units report the conclusions of their investigations, including initiatives, mitigation, remedy or any actions taken.

The whistleblower and the individual(s) the concern refers to, may file a written complaint on the process and treatment they have received during the proceedings. Issues regarding receiving and handling of notifications will be regarded, other issues will not be addressed. The complaint shall be sent to Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO) and processed by him/her.

Mowi is committed to ensuring that our workforce is not only aware of but also trusts the structures and processes in place for raising concerns or needs. Our policies strictly prohibit any form of retaliation against individuals, including workers' representatives, who utilize these channels. This Whistleblowing policy is communicated clearly to all employees and is enforced through disciplinary actions against any violations, ensuring a safe and trusting environment for our workforce to express their concerns.

It is the responsibility of the local managing director to ensure that the policy is implemented, and that the grievance mechanism is regularly discussed and consulted with relevant stakeholders.

Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO) and the Audit Committee shall receive a quarterly summary report from external partner. The report shall include category, geographical location and performed follow-up actions of all issues reported. If applicable, the report shall be forwarded to the relevant local management.

S1-4

Mitigating negative impacts from transition to greener economy

Ethical business conduct is also connected with environmental stewardship. Through Mowi's Code of Conduct, we promote sustainable practices (such as freshwater stewardship, responsible waste management, energy-saving initiatives) and encourage our own employees and suppliers to become more aware of the impact their actions have on the environment.

Mowi has implemented various measures to mitigate the smooth transition and potential impacts on our workforce arising from the transition to a greener, climate-neutral economy. We have initiated training and reskilling programs focused on technologies and sustainable practices, ensuring our workforce is equipped for future roles. In cases of downscaling or mass dismissal, we offer job counselling, coaching, and intra-company placements. Early retirement plans are also available as an option. These measures comply with prevailing regulations and are responsive to external developments like changes in environmental policies and market trends towards sustainability.

S1-1, S1-3

Channels for own workforce to raise concerns

Mowi has robust grievance mechanisms and remediation processes for human rights violations. We ensure these measures are accessible, fair, and effective, with ongoing evaluations to improve their effectiveness. Our whistleblower channel facilitates the reporting of concerns about potential compliance issues related to laws, regulations and our Code of Conduct. Concerns received are reported to the Board of Directors Audit committee on a quarterly basis.

Our approach to remediation involves a thorough investigation of any incident that causes a material negative impact on our workforce. We implement immediate corrective actions and longterm preventive measures. Transparency and good communication throughout the organization promotes a better working culture in Mowi. Mowi acknowledges the risk of violations of Mowi Code of Conduct and depends on the employees' and other stakeholders' willingness to raise concerns on such to uphold high ethical standards.

Reports of concern can be made verbally or written. They can be addressed to a manager, next lever manager (grandfather/ grandmother principle), union representative, to group management, human resources or directly to Mowi's independent Whistleblower Channel.

We have a formal grievance and complaints handling mechanism that is easily accessible to all employees. This mechanism ensures confidentiality, fair processing, and timely resolution of employee issues. When a report is received, it is logged in the Whistleblower Channel managed by external partner and assessed to determine if an investigation is necessary. If required, an investigation is conducted by a selected provider, with the Board of Directors informed. Investigations are fair, open, and objective, aiming to complete within 28 days. All reports are logged, and a quarterly summary is provided to the Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO) and the Audit Committee. Reports are taken seriously,

MDR-A, S1-4

Actions and resources

Mowi has developed action plans and allocated resources to manage the material impacts, risks and opportunities related to our workforce. These plans encompass a range of initiatives, including workforce development programs, health and safety improvements, and diversity and inclusion strategies. We allocate resources not only in terms of financial investment but also through dedicating time and expertise to ensure these initiatives are effectively implemented. Our approach is to address both immediate needs and long-term goals, ensuring the sustainability and well-being of our workforce.

Mowi's key actions mainly require operational expenditure (opex) and this is included in the budget and long term plan and confirmed by the board. Example of actions and initiatives we perform which includes opex include conducting global employee engagement survey, implementing leadership training programs, delivering health and safety training programs, and managing annual privacy tasks and related training initiatives. In addition Mowi invest in systems for and has a global HR system and other systems for monitoring and follow up of actions. Key actions require opex, however this is not a significant amount relative to overall budget.

In cases where actual material impacts occur, Mowi promptly takes action to provide or enable remedy. This may include immediate medical assistance, financial compensation, or psychological support, as well as long-term policy changes to prevent recurrence.

Actions related to health and safety

As part of our Human right's due diligence process, we have identified health and safety as a key area of material impact, risk, and opportunity affecting both employees and non-employees. The impact is particularly significant for blue-collar workers in farming and processing sites. For white-collar employees, the impact and associated risks are comparatively lower but still notable.

Our long-term goal is to develop a strong safety culture, and we are committed to providing and maintaining a healthy and safe working environment for all employees, contractors and visitors. To prevent workplace accidents, we have implemented a systematic and structured safety program and developed a high awareness and safety mindset. Health and safety management is an important part of any successful business. By focusing on improving worker safety and enhancing safety behaviour we expect a reduction of risk linked with injuries, illness, environmental incidents and property damage, all with potential financial impact.

Our aim is that safety is the top priority of all our employees. In our experience, many incidents are caused by inattention. Our global safety program, BrainSafe, is a behaviour-based safety process designed to empower employees, hired staff and contractors to take control of their own safety and raise safety awareness. New employees are required to attend training in BrainSafe as part of their onboarding, and training is also provided to relevant suppliers and contractors. Safety materials and digital trainings are available to all employees. Refresher courses and workshops are offered to reinforce and sustain the lessons learned during the initial training.

As part of our efforts to ensure decent working conditions for our workforce, we recognize the pivotal role of our managers and therefore prioritize leadership training through both local and global programs which includes awareness training on employee health and safety on the agenda. Health and safety topics are routinely discussed in health and safety network meetings, with labour union representatives, or in local safety committees.

Our objective also involves cultivating an understanding and awareness in the correlation between healthy food, proper nutrition, and psychological well-being to promote wellness among our employees.

One of our global safety initiatives in 2024 was Global Safety Week where business units across the Group have participated in global initiatives as well as organising local events and activities. The aim

of the Global Safety Week is to inspire and reconnect employees and business units all over the world with the common goals on staying safe and healthy, raise awareness on people's impact on their own safety as well as the safety of their colleagues, and sharing of information and direction on Mowi's safety approach. We strongly believe in behaviour-based safety as a key element in optimising our safety culture, and Global Safety Week is an important safety initiative in this regard.

We assess our health and safety progress using lost-time incidents (LTIs) per million hours. Employees are encouraged to report on incidents as well as near misses within their organisation. Employees may also report via the external whistleblower channel, where anonymous reporting is an option. Health and safety paragraphs are included in collective work agreements, including working hours and shift structures. Safety targets are included in the bonus agreements for all senior managers. We are convinced that our safety programme BrainSafe will continue to have a positive impact and effect on our key indicators and safety performance.

In managing the material impacts on our workforce, Mowi allocates resources, both financial and non-financial. This includes investments in safety equipment, training programs, health and wellness initiatives, and technology upgrades. We also allocate substantial time and expertise for policy development, employee engagement, and continuous improvement processes. This resource allocation is regularly reviewed and adjusted in line with our evolving business needs and workforce expectations, ensuring effective management of material impacts.

Actions related to freedom of association and collective bargaining

Mowi upholds and supports employees' right to freedom of association and collective bargaining across its operations, supply chain, and locations. This includes the right to join, form, or refrain from joining a labour union or association without fear of retaliation, intimidation, or harassment.

We are committed to establishing a constructive dialogue and cooperation with the employees freely chosen employee representatives or legally recognised union representatives. We engage in meetings on a regular and on-going basis, discussing current issues and long-term direction and plans, and negotiate collective bargaining agreements as relevant in each Business Unit. Collective agreements may be made valid for the larger employee base in the Business units, as per local decision.

In 2024, 2 733 of our employees were members of a labour union, however, in 24 of our Business units where most of our people are employed, collective bargaining agreement results cover all workers, regardless of their contract type and union membership. The remaining employees that are not part of or covered by an active collective agreement, are managed individually.

Based on our assessment of the 26 countries where we operate, we have identified four countries where our operations face a potential high risk on the Human Rights Index, specifically concerning freedom of association; Vietnam, China, Turkey, and Singapore. The highest risk is associated with blue-collar workers in our factories in Vietnam, Turkey, and China. In contrast, Singapore is considered low risk as we employ only white-collar workers in that country. Local management collaborates closely with unions and employee

MDR-T, S1-5

Targets and metrics

Our primary objective is to create a safe work environment for our employees. To achieve this, we have set time-bound targets aimed at reducing negative impacts on our workforce. Our progress is measured through several key indicators, including lost-time incidents (LTIs) per million hours worked, and the rate of absenteeism. Absence rate is a entity specific target.

The process of establishing and monitoring health and safety targets considers factors such as past performance analysis, the company's risk profile, involvement with various stakeholders in our organisation and alignment with strategic initiatives. This ensures that our targets remain both relevant and achievable. Furthermore, we benchmark our targets against industry standards and regulatory requirements to ensure alignment with best practices and compliance obligations. This benchmarking allows us to set targets that not only comply with regulations but also leads to continuous improvement in workforce well-being and development.

Progress

Working conditions: Absence

Our rate of absenteeism has slowly decreased over the past years, from 5.7% in 2016 to 4.9% in 2024, slowly moving towards our 4% goal. The decrease represents a positive trend in the longer term, but we have experienced peeks throughout the period due to Covid-19.

representatives in these potential high-risk countries, fostering the right to organize and maintaining strong working relationships through regular meetings.

Working conditions: Lost time injuries (LTI)

Lost time injuries measured per million hours worked (LTIR) came to 2.4 for the Group in 2024, an increase from 2.1 reported in 2023. We observed a rise in LTI during the summer of 2024, prompting the launch of action and awareness programs that yielded positive results. As a result, December 2024 marked the first month in 16 years with no reported LTIs. The impact of our safety programs on LTIs and the rate of absenteeism can be seen in the statics comparing the last 10 years, with downwards trend in the rolling LTI per millions of hours worked for more than a decade. We also see results in terms of a more proactive approach by both people and the company, higher safety awareness and accurate reporting of incidents and injuries.

To enhance our LTI reports LTI data are tracked and reported in three categories of seriousness - low, medium, and high, in categories of injuries, and by business division. This detailed breakdown enables us to pinpoint specific areas for improvement more accurately.

Most of the lost-time incidents occurred in our Sales & Marketing division, with 60% of the total. Many of the incidents occurred in our processing plants. The Farming Divisions had a total of 40 % of the total LTIs. The incidents happened both at farming sites and processing plants. Our blue collar workers are thus exposed to the majority of the LTI incidents. Our Feed division has not had any LTIs for 9 years (2015).

Most of the incidents are in the low and medium categories. The category "High" is regarded as an "Extremely dangerous situation/ occurrence" that has the potential to cause "serious injury to personnel or could potentially have led to serious injury". Out of the 14 High category LTIs, 8 of them happened in our Sales & Marketing

Collective bargaining coverage

At Mowi, we are committed to maintaining a transparent and constructive dialogue with our employees and their representatives.

As of 31 December, 2024, 6 969 (55%) of our employees were represented by a labour union or covered by a collective bargaining agreement. This reflects our commitment to maintaining fair and beneficial working conditions and terms of employment.

All Mowi Group companies guarantee freedom of association and foster social dialogue. Collective labour agreements offered by Mowi Group companies provide enhancements to working and employment conditions beyond the minimum legal requirements established in each country. The procedures governing information, representation, and consultation with workers are stipulated and regulated within the various collective agreements and are implemented through the appropriate labour representation bodies.

For countries in the EEA and outside the EEA, Mowi has collective bargaining agreements in place in each country where we have a significant (with over 10% of our total number of employees employment presence). Coverage in Norway and Poland (EEA) are 100%, Coverage in Scotland (non EEA) is 52%.

Policies

Policies relevant for equal treatment within our own workforce:

The Recruitment Policy ensures fair and consistent hiring practices, enhancing diversity and reducing turnover. It aims to attract and select individuals with the desired qualifications and values that align with Mowi's principles. This policy strengthens the company's reputation as an attractive place to work and addresses potential biases in hiring.

The Salary Policy establishes a clear and predictable framework for salary determination, evaluation, and adjustment within Mowi. It ensures all employees receive a living wage based on public standards, promoting fairness, social responsibility, and

EQUAL TREATMENT AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR ALL

Mowi values the diversity of our workforce and the valuable contribution it makes. We believe that a diverse work force gives us a competitive advantage in our business operation, our access to future talent, and maintaining our attractiveness as an employer. The principles of equality, diversity and inclusion are built into our Code of Conduct where fair, respectful and ethical treatment of others is core to who we are and our company culture. Our policies focus on eliminating discrimination and promoting equal opportunities.

compliance with local regulations. The policy outlines roles in salary adjustments, highlights risks and opportunities in a structured salary process, and emphasises transparency through documented changes. It applies across the Mowi Group and is relevant to employees, regulatory bodies, unions, investors and suppliers.

Our Diversity and Inclusion Policy promotes a diverse and inclusive workplace, emphasising equal opportunities for all employees. This policy is embedded in Mowi's vision, values, and leadership principles, ensuring that diversity and inclusion are integral to all business and operational processes.

The Performance Management Policy establishes a global standard for evaluating employees, providing feedback, and identifying growth potential. It aims to create a safe and healthy working environment where employees are engaged, motivated, and offered opportunities for development.

The Code of Conduct includes a policy in chapter 5.2 on equality and non-discrimination, stating that All Mowi's activities shall be conducted without discrimination based on race, ethnicity, national or other origin, disability, age, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, language, religion, or any other characteristic where a person is not treated as an individual. An example is the Code of Conduct chapter 6.1 stating that Mowi aims to be an open, positive, and supportive community, showing respect and support for individuals and our diverse cultures and chapter 7.1 on Human Rights stating that employees have the right to work in an environment that promotes diversity, equal opportunity, and non-discrimination.

managers are trained to make employment decisions based on job qualifications and organizational fit, always respecting each candidate.

We utilise a global job architecture system to ensure transparent processes with objective criteria for job grading, compensation, and benefits determination. Annually we gather data and publish our report on Equality, Non-Discrimination & Gender Pay. Our analytics show that we effectively have gender pay equality in Mowi Group. We continue to prioritise fair and transparent compensation. Our aim is to offer competitive compensation yet aligned with the local market and industry. No employee is paid less than the official national living wage indicated for the relevant location.

Employees have access to health services as part of our occupational health care provider agreements in the different units. All employees have occupational health insurance. Parental leave is practised in compliance with company policy, local insurance schemes and/or local laws and regulations. Most of our business units have paid parental leave for eligible employees, and employees have access to an average of 35 weeks of paid leave.

If discrimination is detected it must be reported to manager, HR and next level managers ("grand manager") or in the independent whistleblower channel. We are targeting a transparent working culture where all concerns are reported and corrected. If concerns are not corrected or investigated, they must be handled as per the whistleblower policy.

that our targets remain both relevant and achievable. Additionally, we benchmark our targets against industry standards and regulatory requirements to ensure alignment with best practices and compliance. This approach enables us to set targets that not only meet regulatory obligations but also drive continuous improvement in workforce well-being and development.

Progress

Gender ratio targets

In 2024 we report a decrease in the employee gender ratio with female employees counting for 39% of our employees. We are happy to see that the gender ratio of managers is increasing to 26% slowly approaching our 30% target.

We believe in nurturing the potential of our employees and fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace. To advance positive impacts on our workforce, we have established ambitious targets to empower and uplift our employees. Our progress is measured through two key indicators, gender ratio of employees and gender ratio of managers. The process of establishing and monitoring gender ratio targets considers factors such as past performance analysis, the company's risk profile, involvement with various stakeholders in our organisation and alignment with strategic initiatives. This ensures significant obligation. The gender pay gap at our company is 5%. Improving gender balance is a strategic priority, and Mowi is committed to attracting and retaining female talent across all levels of the organization. The remuneration ratio of our highest paid individual to the median annual total remuneration for all employees (excluding the highestpaid individual) is 21 to 1.

The progress of this target is closely linked to how we as a group hire, promote and retain our talent (both male and female), and and we provide dashboards to HR and managers to monitor this. Any recruitment or promotion is based on qualifications, skills, experience, and performance. For example, Mowi's recruitment policy defines common principles and guidelines for recruitment process such as structured interview guides and testing to create objective criteria to help ensure that all candidates are evaluated fairly based on qualification and skill.

Gender pay gap

The gender pay gap reflects the difference in average pay levels between female and male employees, expressed as a percentage of the average male salary. Mowi's remuneration include basic salary. Pay variation is influenced by factors such as positions, seniority, experience, and location. The calculation does not adjust for wage differences across countries, as figures are based on the latest equal pay analytics reported.

The dataset includes 10,669 employees from 2023, with salary rates converted to EUR using the annual average exchange rate. Employees are further classified by managerial status and standardized position families, structured by country to ensure consistency in comparisons. Differences between permanent, temporary, full-time, and part-time contracts have also been analysed. However, no distinction has been made between individual and collective bargaining.

The average female salary as a percentage of male salary in the Group is calculated as a weighted average per position family per country, using the following formula:

The annual remuneration ratio compares the highest paid individual's salary to the median annual remuneration for all employees, excluding the highest paid individual.

Gender representation and pay disparities

Mowi's workforce has a significantly lower number of female employees and female managers compared to male employees. This under-representation in managerial and senior roles contributes to existing gender pay differences, as these typically have higher compensation levels.

Management

We define managers as individuals who are responsible for personnel as well as those accountable for a specific function.

Human rights are at the core of a sustainable business. Our commitment to human rights in our operations, as well as our supply chain, is held in close collaboration with our vision Leading the Blue Revolution, our Sustainability Plan, our Code of Conduct and our business strategy. Mowi's commitment on human rights is based upon internationally recognised human rights principles, such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the United Nations Global Compact, The United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, and the International Labour Organisation's Core Conventions.

Our approach is dynamic, which allows for continuous improvement and development.

The human rights due diligence process for own workforce is carried out on a yearly basis or more frequent as deemed necessary. The due diligence focuses on industrial and geographical risk and entails a process of priority based on significance, severity and Mowi's contribution to the actual or potential adverse impact.

Through our Human Rights Policy, we strongly reaffirm our dedication to upholding all international labour and human rights laws and regulations. We also prioritize implementing business practices and technologies that foster the protection and respect of human rights on a global scale.

SBM-3, S-1-SBM-3

Actions to prevent child labour and forced labour

Mowi operates within a regulatory framework that ensures the abolishment of child labour and forced labour and adheres to human rights principles on this matter. We apply our Code of Conduct and ONE Mowi policies to ensure that we comply with the human rights principles of the abolishment of child labour and forced labour. When monitoring our global operations for the risk of child and forced labour we are mapping all countries where we have operations based on recognized global indexes. This score indicates geographical risk connected to human rights and decent working conditions.

Based on our assessment of the 26 countries where we operate, 3 countries have been identified as having a high risk for child labour. In two of these high-risk countries (China and Vietnam), most of our workforce consists of blue-collar workers in our factories, making these operations the potentially vulnerable to child labour concerns. To address this, we are working closely with local management to implement and reinforce preventive measures.

In our processing plants, migrant workers are mainly employed in blue-collar positions, both as employees and non-employees. Migrant workers are potentially more vulnerable to exploitative labour practices, such as unfair wages, poor working conditions, and the risk of human trafficking or forced labour. Additionally, migrant workers may face social isolation, language barriers, and cultural challenges that can affect their well-being and integration into the workforce. To address these risks, most of our business units have local policies specifically designed to protect migrant workers and mitigate the potential challenges they encounter.

Many of our local business units report that they have a local human rights due diligence process. We are targeting to increase this year on year. We conduct regular audits, provide training and awareness programs for employees, and have mechanisms for reporting and addressing violations. We have zero tolerance of forced labour, child labour and human-rights abuses. Mowi Human Rights policy explicitly address forced labour, human trafficking and child labour. The policy prohibits young workers under the age of 18 from positions in which hazardous work is expected. Mowi considers the minimum age for employment as not lower than the age of completion of compulsory schooling as set by national law, and in any event not lower than 15 years of age.

In Mowi, all our employees have written terms of their employment. Employees are entitled to sick pay, in compliance with company policy, local insurance schemes and/or local laws and regulations. As a rule, Mowi offers full-time positions. We monitor the ratio of part time employment and aim to use part-time employment only for roles which by nature are not full-time. Employees who express a wish to increase their work percentage are followed up locally. All Mowi business units follows the International Labour Organisation (ILO) principles on working time, based on 48 hours per 7 day work week and 48/56 hours average per 3 weeks shift schedules. Our aim is to offer competitive compensation yet aligned with the local market and industry. No employee is paid less than the official national living wage indicated for the relevant location.

Mowi is dedicated to ensuring that our own practices do not cause or contribute to material negative impacts on our workforce. This includes careful consideration of our procurement policies, sales strategies, and data use practices. In situations where tensions arise between mitigating negative impacts and other business pressures, we prioritize ethical decision-making and employee wellbeing. Ethical audits, employee feedback sessions and compliance reviews are conducted to monitor and ensure adherence to this commitment.

Actions related to privacy

Safeguarding of our employees' personal data is a continuous effort and a priority. During 2024 we continued our work to integrate the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the Group. Our network of GDPR coordinators facilitates the protection of personal data throughout the Group, ensuring compliance and enhancing the protection of personal data of employees and contractors. All employees are offered training on managing personal data. All employees who handle personal data complete mandatory personal data training.

The training emphasises collecting, processing, and using personal data solely for legitimate business purposes. If employees become aware of a privacy breach, they are trained to promptly inform their manager and take appropriate corrective actions.

Targets and metrics

Targets and progress

We have not identified measurable targets relating to other work related rights, and we have not set a base year form which progress is measured. Nevertheless, we track the effectiveness of policies and actions to support work related rights by monitoring the completion of human rights due diligence processes locally, written employment terms, and compliance with relevant compliance training.

To ensure the strong emphasis on work related rights all eligible employees complete the annual Code of Conduct training as part of our documentation on ethical business conduct and a privacy training programme for all eligible employees. We monitor that all employees have written employee terms and see this as an important action to ensure transparency. We are recommending all local business units to complete a local human rights due diligence process. We are monitoring if our business units that have a policy for migrant workers, ensuring the rights of this potentially vulnerable group of workers. We closely monitor and follow up our whistleblower incidents and complaints.

Characteristics of non-employees

Collaboration with the external service providers and the temporary employment agencies serves as a significant strategy in the quantitative planning of human resources. By engaging temporary workers within various locations, the Mowi Group effectively adapts to varying production demands and market conditions. Mowi Group, operating within various countries, has established agreements to ensure agile responses to market fluctuations while safeguarding the core workforce and employment opportunities. The fundamental principle of the Mowi Group entails the utilization of temporary employees as complementary to the regular workforce, rather than as replacements.

As of our reporting period in 2024, Mowi employs 2 505 nonemployees. This group consists of 1 036 self-employed individuals, such as freelance designers and IT consultants, and 1 469 agency workers, primarily in roles that support our manufacturing and logistics operations.

The figures are reported as per end of the year 2024. By applying headcount as the basis for calculation, we ensure that the reporting period reflects the actual workforce composition and its changes throughout the year. The number of third-party headcount remains stable, and no significant changes are expected.

Employee turnover

Total number of departures during 2024 was 1 935 and our turnover rate is thus 15%. Attrition data excludes temporary and student employees such as interns and co-ops.

Data are reported as per end of year 2024. Out of 2 401 new hires filled globally, some were filled internally. The headcount figure of 12 579 own employees and 2505 non-employees differs from our financial statements where we report — Full-Time Equivalent (FTE ) own workforce per yearly average.

We aim to provide stakeholders with a clear understanding of our workforce composition and the impact of our employment practices. This data serves as a foundation for further analysis and improvements in our sustainability initiatives.

Interests and views of stakeholders

At Mowi we recognize the integral role that our value chain workers play in the functioning and success of our business. As such, safeguarding their interests, considering their views, and upholding their rights are linked to the ethical and responsible conduct of our operations. Herein, we outline the various ways the well-being of our value chain workers could potentially be impacted by our undertakings, and how their interests and human rights shape our strategy and business model.

Our business model is built on the foundation of sustainable and ethical practices that prioritise the welfare and well-being of our workers. We aim to create a collaborative work environment that facilitates mutual growth and prosperity. We have developed and implemented policies and procedures that uphold the rights also for workers in the value chain for safe and meaningful work. Our strategies are constantly evolving, reflecting the dynamic needs and aspirations of our workforce, thereby building a resilient and sustainable business model.

Impacts, risks and opportunities

S2-SBM 3

We have identified two key topics that may have a material impact on value chain workers: working conditions and other work-related rights:

Working conditions

Health and safety

Impact

Our operations potentially entail a range of activities that could have significant implications for the health and safety of our value chain workers. Workers in the value chain are central to Mowi's success, and the sustainable use of resources is deemed viable in the short, medium, and long term, provided we maintain a strong focus on employee health and safety. Ensuring employee safety in own workforce and in the value chain is directly tied to Mowi's license to operate, as non-compliance could significantly impact our ability to attract and retain talent. Our Lost Time Injury (LTI) data underscores that blue-collar workers are exposed to the highest risk of workplace injuries, highlighting the importance of targeted measures for this group.

Risk

Potential financial risk of non-compliance can be regulatory fines, compensation claims, increased insurance premiums, lost productivity, and potential damage to the company's reputation (both Mowi and the supplier). Non-compliance may result in certification issues and investor ratings dropping for both Mowi and our suppliers. Especially for the blue collar workers inadequate safety measures pose a risk of workplace injuries.

Opportunity

Keeping our employees and workers in the value chain safe is linked to our license to operate, and compliance can affect our ability to attract and retain talent. High standards and adherence to regulations enhance our reputation, making us more attractive as a customer. We have implemented rigorous safety protocols and regularly conduct safety drills to ensure that the risk of occupational hazards is minimized. Mowi requires our suppliers to respect the fact that health and safety is a fundamental right and foundational in everything we do.

Other work related rights

Child labour and forced labour

Impact

The continuation of use of resources evaluated to be possible in short, medium and long term as long as Mowi and our suppliers upholds the strong emphasis on the abolishment of child and forced labour. Mowi is committed to the abolition of child and forced labour by enforcing strict policies and collaborating with partners to uphold ethical labour practices and promote sustainable development. Preventing child and forced labour ensures ethical supply chain practices and protects vulnerable workers.

Risk

Non-compliance will lead to negative publicity and legal issues, deterring talent and increasing turnover and can affect our suppliers ability to deliver on projects and other deliverables.. Potential financial risk of non-compliance includes legal fines, reputational damage, potential boycotts, and loss of business partnerships, all of which can affect profitability.

Opportunity

Ensuring that our employees in the value chain have decent working conditions is linked to Mowi's and our suppliers license to operate. Demonstrating leadership in ethical practices can strengthen brand reputation and can build trusts with stakeholders.

Privacy

Impact

The continuation of use of resources evaluated to be possible in short, medium and long term as long as Mowi and our suppliers upholds the strong emphasis on employee privacy. We prioritize transparency and accountability in our data practices, ensuring that own employees and employees in the value chain are informed about how their data is collected, used, and protected.

Risk

Non-compliance may lead to negative publicity and legal issues, deterring talent and increasing turnover. Potential financial risk of non-compliance can be regulatory fines and loss of customer trust.

Opportunity

Keeping personal data safe can be linked to Mowi and our suppliers ability as a employer to attract and retain talent. investing in data protection systems fosters a culture of security and compliance improving stakeholder confidence.

country-based risk assessments using recognized global indexes, supplier self-assessments, and on-site audits in identified high-risk areas. Feedback from stakeholders and third-party audits also informs our understanding of these risks.

When identifying potential salient negative impact, we are mainly looking at country risk and industry risk. Country risk involves challenges stemming from a country's political, economic, or regulatory environment, such as labour law changes, currency instability, or political unrest, which can broadly impact all industries operating there. In contrast, industry risk is specific to the dynamics of a particular sector, like technological advancements, competition, or sector-specific regulations, affecting workforce needs and operational priorities within that industry.

This approach has a positive impact on workers throughout our value chain by ensuring their rights and well-being are prioritized. Beyond adhering to regulatory and ethical standards, we actively collaborate with suppliers to implement proactive measures, such as tailored health and safety programs, worker empowerment initiatives, and skill development opportunities.

  • Country risk: We have identified certain high-risk geographies in our supply chain where there is potential risk of child labour or forced labour, as well as concerns regarding human rights and working conditions. Only 4% of our 2024 suppliers are in these high-risk countries, meaning that 96% of our suppliers operate in low-risk regions where such issues are not prevalent.
  • Industry risk: we have identified five specific industry risks for our operations: Hiring external personnel for our factories, shipyard industry, net production, logistics and procurement of species other than salmon.
  • Certain contexts: In the upstream value chain, workers engaged in equipment manufacturing and supply face a higher potential risk due to the physical nature of their work. In the downstream value chain, logistics and distribution workers associated with our products may also encounter elevated risks, particularly related to long working hours, exposure to traffic-related hazards, and limited access to health and safety resources.
  • Individual incidents: when monitoring the subcontractor LTI (Lost Time Incidents) we find that our incidents in 2024 occur in our farming operations in Norway and Chile.
  • Transition impacts: We recognize the potential negative impacts on value chain workers from the transition to greener operations, including job losses due to automation and restructuring.

Identified material risks include potential disruptions in the supply chain due to geopolitical factors and dependencies on value chain workers to maintain production continuity and meet quality standards. Opportunities include promoting innovation and enhancing worker well-being through targeted initiatives, such as health and safety training and skill development programs, which strengthen the resilience and productivity of the value chain.

S2- SBM-3

Value chain workers' impact on strategy and business model

In line with our commitment to sustainable business practices, Mowi has conducted an assessment to determine the actual and potential impacts on value chain workers. Our approach is risk-based, beginning with an initial country risk assessment for all suppliers as the first step in our due diligence process. For certain suppliers, this is followed by a second step involving a detailed Mowi Assessment. The country risk analysis show that the majority (96%) of our suppliers are based in countries with low and medium risk, thus our overall risk profile is deemed low. Nonetheless, we require our suppliers to comply with the Mowi Code of Conduct and thus underscore our proactive approach in maintaining ethical labour standards across our value chain.

We acknowledge that the impacts originate from various dimensions of our business model including our sourcing policies, manufacturing processes, and product distributions. Our strategy emphasises the welfare of the workers involved in various stages of our value chain, incorporating measures to safeguard their interests and well-being. Furthermore, the insights and data gathered from this process inform our strategies and adaptations in the business model. We have initiated programs focusing on health and safety standards to create a more sustainable and inclusive working environment. We have identified areas where we can leverage opportunities to enhance the positive impacts while minimising risks, thereby ensuring a resilient and sustainable value chain.

We are in the initial phase of this process, aiming to enhance engagement and strengthen the impact of value chain workers on our strategy and business model

The types of value chain workers who could be materially impacted are categorized as follows:

  • On-site Contractors: Workers in temporary or contract-based roles, while not part of Mowi's direct workforce, play a vital role in supporting our operations.
  • Upstream Value Chain: Workers involved in feed suppliers and equipment manufacturers and suppliers.
  • Downstream Value Chain: Workers associated with logistics and distribution aspects of our products.
  • Joint Ventures: Workers engaged in collaborative projects and special purpose ventures initiated by Mowi.
  • Vulnerable Groups: This includes migrant workers and young workers who are potentially more susceptible to negative impacts due to various inherent characteristics or specific contexts.

S2-SBM-3

Understanding potential greater risks

We have developed an understanding of the potential greater risks associated with workers possessing characteristics or working in certain contexts through a combination of due diligence process, supplier engagement surveys, and risk assessments. These include

Management of impacts, risks and opportunities

S2-1

Policies to manage material impacts on value chain workers

At Mowi, we acknowledge our responsibility towards ensuring the welfare and rights of value chain workers. Our policies address the identification, assessment, and management of potential material impacts on our value chain workers. We have established policies that envelop material risks and opportunities concerning all value chain workers, inclusive of specific groups that may be more vulnerable.

Human rights are at the core of a sustainable business. Our commitment to human rights in our operations, as well as our supply chain, is held in close collaboration with our vision Leading the Blue Revolution, our Sustainability Plan, our Code of Conduct and the business strategy.

We maintain a zero-tolerance policy towards trafficking in human beings, forced or compulsory labour, and child labour. Our policies explicitly address these concerns, and we ensure rigorous compliance through our Code of Conduct, which mandates all our partners to adhere to these principles strictly.

Mowi only collaborates with suppliers who comply with the company's Code of Conduct and respect human rights, requiring transparency, continuous improvement, and remediation of any identified shortcomings. The Code of Conduct sets clear expectations for respecting human rights, including labour rights, within our supply chain.

The Mowi Procurement Policy establishes clear principles for procurement to ensure consistency, compliance, and value optimization across all subsidiaries and operations.

Mowi is dedicated to obtaining the best value for money in all procurement activities, promoting ethical standards and compliance with applicable laws, company policies, and international regulations. Procurement processes follow structured guidelines, including supplier assessments based on risk ratings, ESG compliance, and adherence to Mowi's Code of Conduct. The procurement policy ensures that suppliers meet rigorous health and safety standards, requiring audits and evaluations as part of the supplier approval process. Suppliers must address identified risks, including workplace safety concerns, through corrective action plans or risk being excluded from the supply chain. Local managers oversee procurement within their units, ensuring timely deliveries, competitive pricing, and supplier compliance. The policy also enforces rigorous standards for contract management, inventory control, and sustainable practices, with annual evaluations to drive continuous improvement. Non-compliance with procurement guidelines may result in disciplinary actions, and any policy breaches are subject to a formal deviation handling process. Mowi's procurement activities align with its commitment to quality, environmental sustainability, and social responsibility, setting a standard that extends to all suppliers and contractors.

The policy applies in its entirety to all Mowi procurement related activities, unless in conflict with applicable laws and regulations.

The Mowi Human Rights Policy emphasises the company's commitment to respecting and promoting human rights in all its operations and value chains. The scope of Mowi`s Human Rights policy applies to all Mowi employees worldwide, including nonemployees, anyone doing business for or with Mowi and others acting on Mowi's behalf. This applies to all locations where Mowi conducts business and to all company-sponsored events. The Human Rights Policy is firmly grounded in internationally recognized frameworks, including the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the International Bill of Human Rights, the International Labour Organization (ILO), Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, and the United Nations Global Compact. Additionally, our policies ensure compliance with practices across our value chain. These principles guide the implementation and governance of our human rights initiatives, ensuring alignment with global standards. To ensure alignment, Mowi integrates these principles into its operations through supplier risk assessments, on-site audits, and third-party evaluations in highrisk areas. Non-compliance issues are addressed via corrective action plans or exclusion from the value chain where necessary. For more information read about our Human Rights Policy in S1.

Mowi has been a member of the UN Global Compact since 2010. This strategic policy initiative encourages businesses to align their operations and strategies with ten universally accepted principles in the areas of human and labour rights, the environment, and anticorruption. These agreements facilitate a mutual understanding and respect for collective bargaining rights, giving us a framework to address potential human rights issues that may emerge in high-risk regions.

Due diligence process

Mowi conducts a human rights due diligence in accordance with the Transparency Act and the OECD guidelines. Our process follows the six-step process of OECD and is a project in continuous development.

Our due diligence process strengthens the company's commitment to human rights by incorporating a country-based risk assessment using global indexes to identify potential risks related to human rights and working conditions.

Mowi employs a risk-based approach to managing our supply chain, with country risk playing a central role in this assessment. To ensure efficiency, thoroughness, and transparency, we have implemented a standardised due diligence process that uses a system to conduct risk assessments on suppliers across the organization by analysing several key factors. Through this process, all suppliers receive a risk rating, enabling us to prioritize our efforts with the most relevant suppliers. These targeted suppliers are then required to complete a comprehensive self-assessment, ensuring compliance with our Code of Conduct and ESG standards. Suppliers who do not meet critical standards, such as adherence to the Code of Conduct, are provided with an opportunity to improve. If they fail to make the necessary improvements, they may face potential exclusion from our supply chain. This process reinforces our commitment to upholding human rights throughout our value chain.

At Mowi, we are committed to ensure open communication and engagement with our value chain workers to understand and mitigate actual and potential impacts on them. Our established processes aim to facilitate ongoing dialogues, encompassing various perspectives and insights to enable informed and responsible decision-making. Through conducting surveys with suppliers and subcontractors, Mowi address perspectives and concerns of value chain workers.

We engage directly with our value chain workers and their legitimate representatives to gain insights into their circumstances. Our engagement channels also include collaborations with credible proxies, such as community organizations and NGOs that have close relations with the workers. Mowi's risk assessment ensures that high-risk suppliers, particularly in critical countries, are engaged in a targeted dialogue to address identified risks, enhancing our understanding and fostering mutual responsibility. We are in the early stages of this process, focusing on improving engagement and enhancing the influence of value chain workers on our strategy and business model, with a commitment to driving continuous improvements over time

Our engagement occurs at various stages including project planning, implementation, and review. We have established forums in several of our business units and periodic surveys as platforms for the workers to voice their concerns and suggestions, ensuring an environment of transparency. Several of our business units conduct questionnaires to obtain on-site feedback and request improvements. Additionally, for suppliers identified with "red flags or potential adverse impacts, engagement can involve follow-up meetings, improvement plans, or audits to ensure these suppliers address identified risks effectively.

We are at the beginning of this process, prioritizing efforts to strengthen engagement and amplify the role of value chain workers in shaping our strategy and business model, while remaining dedicated to fostering continuous improvement over time.

The Director of Procurement holds the primary responsibility for ensuring these engagements are systematically implemented. However, the operational responsibility lies with the Managing Director of the local business units, who are tasked with ensuring that the insights gained from these engagements effectively shape our strategies and operational practices. This role includes responsibility for implementing engagement plans with suppliers, especially in high-risk countries identified for their human rights challenges, like access to education or gender equality, ensuring actionable insights are integrated into our strategies.

S2-2

Processes for engaging with value chain workers

We have established metrics and key performance indicators to evaluate the effectiveness of our engagement with value chain workers. For suppliers in high-risk regions, we apply these metrics to monitor improvements in labour rights compliance, with 96% of suppliers achieving "Good" or "Excellent" ratings. Audits and feedback sessions are conducted to fine-tune our engagement strategies, ensuring the outcomes are aligned with our commitment to fostering positive impacts on the workers. We are in the early stages of this process, focusing on strengthening engagement and increasing the influence of value chain workers on our strategy and business model. As we progress, we are committed to continuously We maintain an open channel of communication with our value chain workers, encouraging them to voice their concerns and suggestions. To further ensure compliance and engage with value chain workers, we conduct on-site audits in specific regions to verify adherence to health and safety standards. In select areas, we have implemented a Contractor Excellence Program, which helps contract owners manage vendors, suppliers, and contractors in line with Mowi's standards. Furthermore, contractor personnel entering Mowi facilities in these regions are provided with Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) training, ensuring a safe and compliant work environment. This initiative reinforces our active engagement with workers across our value chain to maintain high health and safety standards.

Additionally, Mowi has established an internal governance system to evaluate and address any adverse impacts or potential risks identified during due diligence. This governance structure helps us implement appropriate measures and track both the process and outcomes effectively.

Supplier approval process

All new suppliers are classified as either critical or non-critical, and the scope of the onboarding process is determined by the supplier's classification, and the supplier's country risk rating. Mowi operates with four risk categories, based on the supplier's self-assessment and the external risk rating: Excellent, Good, Early Warning and High Risk.

We have identified 3 steps in the supplier assessment:

  • Country based risk assessment is based on recognized global indexes. This score indicates geographical risk connected to human rights and decent working conditions.
  • Mowi full assessment risk is assessed through a selfassessment by the suppliers based on Mowi-specific questions and engagement with suppliers.
  • The Self-Assessment includes the following steps:
  • Mowi Code of Conduct compliance (required for all suppliers)
  • Specific topics related to Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)
  • Industry/product specific topics

Approval of suppliers is done based on the supplier risk assessment and rating and the input from the Business Unit Governance Groups. Suppliers with a risk rating of Excellent and Good can be approved without further follow-up. Suppliers with a risk rating of Early Warming and High Risk require a plan for further supplier engagement prepared by the local Business Unit Governance Group, involving relevant resources dependent on risk area. Suppliers who fail to comply with "red flag «questions should not be approved for engagement. «Red flags" are questions where Mowi requires the supplier to comply. An example is compliance with Mowi's Code of Conduct.

S2-3

Channels for value chain workers to raise concerns

Mowi has in place mechanisms to address and provide remedies for human rights impacts. There are several internal programs in Mowi that are important elements in identifying, preventing, mitigating, and remedying adverse human rights impacts within our operations and in our supply chain. This includes our Code of Conduct and business ethics efforts, our global policies, health and safety programs, the privacy program, whistleblowing, and grievance mechanisms, monitoring of fair working conditions, collaboration with labour unions, the diversity and inclusion program, learning programs, local community engagement efforts and interaction with indigenous right holders.

Mowi has processes to remediate any negative impacts that are associated with our value chain operations. We have also developed multiple channels to facilitate open and transparent communication between value chain workers and the company. Our due diligence process enables us to implement suitable measures and track both our progress and outcomes.

Our approach to remedying negative impacts involves an assessment of the situation followed by the implementation solutions designed to mitigate the identified issues. For high-risk suppliers, this can include targeted engagement plans, such as improvement actions or audits, to ensure that the root causes of any adverse impacts are addressed. The effectiveness of the remedy provided is evaluated through feedback and consultations with the affected value chain workers.

We have a whistleblowing channel where all workers in the value chain can directly raise their concerns or needs. The channel can be found on mowi.com. In cases where suppliers exhibit critical risk indicators, these channels serve as an accessible and anonymous means for workers to report potential issues, particularly in high-risk regions. The channel is managed by both our in-house team and a third-party agency to ensure impartiality and effectiveness.

The Mowi Whistleblowing Policy requires the availability of reporting channels for value chain workers, including managers and union representatives. The policy ensures confidentiality, anonymity, and protection against retaliation for whistleblowers.

improving and enhancing our ability to assess the effectiveness of these engagements.

Mowi undertakes responsibility to understand and engage with workers who may be particularly vulnerable to impacts or marginalized. This includes specific groups such as migrant workers, and young workers. Most of our business units have policies in place to protect these specific groups.

We aim to establish platforms that elevate their voices and ensure that their specific concerns are incorporated into our organizational strategies.

S2-4

Actions and resources

At Mowi, we are committed to fostering a sustainable and responsible value chain. This commitment is embedded in our approach to managing material impacts, risks, and opportunities related to value chain workers.

Mowi has embarked on several initiatives to prevent or mitigate material negative impacts on value chain workers. These include enhancing workplace safety protocols, instituting fair labour practices, and fostering a culture of inclusivity and respect. Mowi has a large and diverse extended supply chain, recognizing the critical role suppliers play in helping us source responsibly and sustainably.

Key actions include conducting regular supplier engagement surveys, implementing on-site audits to assess working conditions, providing targeted Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) training for contractor personnel in certain regions, and establish follow-up plans for suppliers flagged as high-risk or non-compliant to address and resolve identified issues.

We have integrated material risk management related to value chain workers into our broader enterprise risk management strategy. This includes regular risk assessments, developing mitigation plans, and integrating these considerations into our business continuity planning. Mowi adopts both general and specific approaches to address material negative impacts. This includes overarching policies like our Code of Conduct, and specific actions like targeted interventions in high-risk areas. Certain high-risk areas require targeted actions, such as improvement plans for suppliers that may not fully meet our standards on child or forced labour prevention, health and safety, and privacy protection.

All reports and identified risks are documented, and for suppliers with ongoing risk indicators, we initiate further assessments or temporarily halt engagements until issues are resolved. The effectiveness of the channels is constantly assessed with the involvement of stakeholders, including worker representatives, to ensure that they are meeting the intended objectives. This can be done through engagement surveys or on-site supplier audits, followed by monthly meetings with contractors to track changes. Mowi has also implemented an HR dashboard to consolidate key metrics and frequently distribute them to all key stakeholders.

The Mowi Whistleblowing Policy specifies that investigations should be initiated within 7 days of receiving a report and completed within 28 days, unless the complexity requires a longer investigation. This ensures a timely response to concerns raised through the whistleblowing channels.

Trust in these structures is reinforced by transparent reporting on the outcomes of these processes. Strict policies have been established to protect individuals using these channels from retaliation. To ensure workers feel secure in raising concerns, a zero-tolerance policy on retaliation has been implemented, with transparency on outcomes incorporated into the process. These measures are detailed in Mowi's ESRS G1-1 policy documentation. To track the outcomes of these initiatives, feedback mechanisms such as post-training evaluations are used to assess whether participants feel more knowledgeable about safety standards after completing the training. These actions aim to strengthen safety and well-being across the value chain.

We monitor the effectiveness of our initiatives to ensure they deliver positive results. Mowi employs action plans and allocates resources to manage material impacts, risks, and opportunities concerning our value chain workers. Our strategy encompasses fair labour practices and worker safety initiatives. Regular assessments and stakeholder engagement ensure the effectiveness and continuous improvement of these measures.

To date, no severe human rights issues or incidents have been reported in Mowi's upstream and downstream value chain. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy towards any human rights violations and have mechanisms in place for reporting and addressing any such incidents. In select areas, Mowi requires suppliers to participate in third-party audits, such as SMETA audits, to verify compliance with human rights standards. Mowi allocates l resources to manage material impacts, including dedicated teams and financial investments. The effectiveness of actions is evaluated by setting specific targets as outlined in ESRS 2 MDR-T, ensuring our commitments translate into tangible improvements.

S2-4

Resources

Mowi allocates resources towards managing material impacts on value chain workers. This includes financial investments, human resources, and technological tools. Financial resources are set aside for sustainability initiatives, covering supplier audits, worker welfare programs, and capacity-building activities. This budget is regularly reviewed and adjusted based on needs and effectiveness. In specific regions, resources within from the sustainability team focus on managing supplier compliance, collaborating with procurement and human resources. Some regions have appointed dedicated managers to oversee contractor compliance with health, safety, and ethical labour practices, with particular attention to suppliers in higher-risk categories. Investment in technology such as supplier monitoring software and data analytics platforms to track sustainability metrics and manage risks effectively. Resources are also allocated for training our employees and suppliers on sustainability practices, including labour rights, environmental management, and ethical business conduct. Programs include Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) onboarding for contractors and periodic workshops to address any knowledge gaps and reinforce safety compliance standards.

Programs to foster positive impacts include skill-building initiatives in regions where suppliers are encouraged to prevent forced labour and improve worker safety. We regularly monitor and report on the progress of these initiatives, identifying areas for improvement and adapting strategies accordingly. Our aim is for continuous advancement towards more sustainable practices. We will continue to improve the process of addressing negative impacts for our value chain workers.

Actions related to health and safety

We have implemented safety protocols and regularly conduct safety drills to ensure that the risk of occupational hazards is minimized. Our health and safety principles and expectations apply to the workers and businesses in our extended supply chain. We will only work with suppliers who comply with our Health and Safety Policy, whatever the suppliers' geographical origin may be.

Mowi holds contractors and on-site suppliers to the same safety standards as all Mowi employees. To manage potential risk, contractors and suppliers must follow internal procurement steps:

  • Conduct a pre-risk assessment, identify necessary controls, equipment, and permits to work.
  • Define safety-related specifications in work order forms.
  • Evaluate equipment certifications or permits.
  • Provide records of acceptable safety training.
  • Participate in Mowi onboarding training or review Mowi contractor onboarding materials.
  • Include in the on-site risk assessment of the installed equipment or service.

Actions related to abolition of child labour, forced labour and privacy

Mowi is committed to upholding human rights principles, including the abolition of child labour, and forced labour in our value chain, as well as respecting privacy rights in accordance with local laws and regulations. All new suppliers must comply with Mowi Code of Conduct, and the due diligence process is conducted with a particular focus on labour rights and ethical treatment.

For suppliers identified with ongoing compliance risks, Mowi implements tailored follow-up actions to address specific material negative impacts, such as risks to health and safety, forced labour, and child labour. These actions including on-site audits, development of corrective action plans, and targeted training to address compliance gaps. In high-risk cases, suppliers may also undergo third-party assessments to ensure improvements are implemented effectively.

To further enhance positive impacts, Mowi requires that suppliers adhere to the principles outlined in the ILO convention to ensure that subcontractors and third-party employees' working conditions meet both Mowi's standards and local and international labour regulations. In some regions, Mowi has implemented health and safety training programs, including Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) training for contractor personnel entering Mowi facilities.

Targets and metrics

To measure our impact on workers in the value chain we have identified lost time incidents (LTI) as key measurable target for Mowi. Mowi has not identified other measurable targets relating to workers in the value chain, and we have not set a base year from which progress is measured. Nevertheless, we track the effectiveness of policies and actions to support decent working conditions for workers in the value chain by monitoring risk rating and Code of Conduct compliance.

LTIs are tracked and reported in three categories of seriousness low, medium, and high for both for employees and suppliers, and

in categories of injuries. Lost time incidents for subcontractors are reported if they occur on our premises.

Our target-setting process is in its initial phases, and as we move forward, we are committed to continuously improving and refining our approach to evaluating the effectiveness of these engagements. Currently we have not had direct engagement with value chain workers to set these targets. Tracking the performance of our LTI target is done together with the reporting of LTI in our own workforce.

IMPACTS, RISKS AND OPPORTUNITIES

Upstream Own operations Downstream

In our governance reporting, we focus on business conduct, compliance with laws and ethical guidelines to protect human rights, prevent corruption, safeguard whistleblowers and sustainability due diligence based on OECD guidelines.

Responsible and ethical business conduct is an integral part of our corporate culture and we work with partners throughout our value chain to mitigate the risks of corruption and safeguarding human rights. At Mowi, high standards of responsible business practices are foundational for our production, the services we deliver to customers and the value we create for the communities where we operate.

G1-1

Business conduct policies and corporate culture

Mowi is a global company with thousands of suppliers and it is vital for us to have the highest level of corporate responsibility and transparency regarding payments practices. Potential financial risk of non-compliance can be regulatory fines, compensation claims, increased insurance premiums, lost productivity, and potential damage to the company's reputation (both Mowi and the supplier). Non-compliance may result in certification issues and investor ratings dropping for both Mowi and our suppliers.

G1-3

Prevention and detection of misconduct (corruption and bribery)

Mowi has established whistleblower reporting channels that are communicated and accessible for both internal and external stakeholders.. All our employees are informed and trained on the processes involved in reporting any misconduct. The staff receiving these reports undergo specific training to handle them appropriately and confidentially. The Whistleblower policy promotes transparency and effective communication within the organisation by offering clear guidelines for raising concerns. It ensures that employees and external stakeholders can report violations safely and without fear of retaliation, fostering an ethical workplace culture and enabling early identification of risks.

With our focus to prevent, detect, and respond to allegations or incidents of corruption and bribery comprehensive policies are set in place.

Mowi has a system to prevent and address issues of corruption and bribery, which includes:

  • A policy outlining the forms of corruption and bribery
  • Regular risk assessments to identify and manage corruption and bribery risk
  • Anonymous reporting channels through which employees and stakeholders can report suspicions or allegations of corruption and bribery without fear of retaliation

Our investigating team operates independently of the management chains involved in the matter. The team comprises internal members, from various departments, not directly involved in the matter under investigation, to ensure impartiality as well as external experts when necessary.

Following an investigation, outcomes are reported to the relevant administrative, management, and supervisory bodies, who undertake necessary actions based on the findings and recommendations.

We maintain transparency on our key procedures through regular updates on our official website and internal communication channels. This includes information to our employees and suppliers to ensure adherence to our policies and procedures. Currently, all our business unit's have implemented the anti-corruption and antibribery procedures.

To ensure the accessibility and understanding of our policies, we employ various methods such as:

  • Information meetings and webcasts
  • Online resources and training modules accessible to all employees
  • Distribution of informational booklets to suppliers and partners
  • All suppliers must approve our Code of Conduct or present their own with equivalent ethical compliance requirements

Through these methods, we aim to make all relevant parties wellinformed about our policies and their implications.

Training programs

Our training programs covers various aspects including the identification of corruption and bribery, reporting mechanisms, and preventive measures. These programs are mandatory for all employees. We have identified the functions within our organization that are most at risk for corruption and bribery. Members of the administrative, management, and supervisory bodies undergo periodic training on the latest developments and best practices in preventing corruption and bribery.

Our training programs are analysed and adapted based on regional needs and workforce categories. Training for our procurement team is more rigorous compared to other departments due to their higher exposure to corruption risks.

G1-4

Incidents of corruption or bribery

During the reporting period of 2024, Mowi experienced no convictions or fines for violating anti-corruption or anti-bribery laws. If any breaches were to be identified, Mowi is committed to taking appropriate actions, including amending standards ro processes and implementing disciplinary measures such as warnings or dismissals. In 2024 we had zero public legal cases regarding corruption and bribery brought against the company or own workers.

Rooted in the Mowi way, our Code of Conduct (CoC) also reflects our company's wide commitment to doing business ethically and with integrity, to protect Mowi and our business partners form engaging in any form of corruption. We have devised, adopted, and disseminated a number of policies which aim to foster a corporate culture of responsible business conduct throughout our organisation. At the core of this corporate culture lies our Code of Conduct (CoC), which prescribes compliance with applicable legislation and describes the ethical standards and values we are committed to upholding and encouraging.

We have established clear channels for identifying, reporting, and investigating concerns pertaining to unlawful behaviour or conduct that contradicts our Code of Conduct.

Our organisation conducts regular training on business conduct, targeting all employees and covering a wide range of topics such as anti-corruption, ethical business practices, and corporate social responsibility. These trainings occur annually and are designed to deepen the understanding and implementation of our business conduct policies.

In our risk assessment process, we have identified procurement and supply chain management as the functions most at risk concerning corruption and bribery. We are intensifying our monitoring and control measures in these areas to prevent any potential misconduct

Impacts, risks and opportunities

Mowi recognises the accepted Five Freedoms for animal welfare and adopts the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) definition of animal welfare: A good state of welfare is if it is healthy, comfortable, well nourished, safe, able to express innate behaviour and it is not suffering from unpleasant states. Good welfare requires disease prevention and veterinary treatment, appropriate shelter, management, nutrition, humane handling and humane slaughter.

Caring about fish welfare and well-being is an ethical responsibility and an integral part of our business strategy as it can impact negatively our productivity and reputation. Poor health and welfare translates into higher mortality rates and increased use of medicines. Lice management is often linked with the use of mechanical treatments which can lead to increased stress and susceptibility to diseases.

Across all our farming operations, animal welfare is recognised as a strategic objective and our primary goals are to rear healthy fish and protect their well-being. Ocean farming allows us to rear salmon under conditions that allow them to thrive, with clean water, space and food, and ensuring they obtain the necessary nutrients for good health and performance throughout their lives. Our positive impact on fish health and welfare comes from stocking our fish at densities that safeguard their welfare, ensuring they have ample space to swim and express innate behaviour. In addition, biosecurity, health management plans, coordinated fallowing and synchronised production are integral components of our farming practices, which reduce biological risk and have a positive impact on fish health and welfare. By vaccinating 100% of our fish to reduce the risk of disease and compromised welfare, and applying the utmost care to ensure the highest quality and robustness of our smolts, we reduce health risks and contribute to a positive impact.

Our positive impact also originates from certifying our farms to the highest possible standards (namely Global GAP, ASC and BAP) which address fish welfare aspects related to feed, water quality, health management, transport, harvesting and slaughter. Our Irish operations are 100% organic certified, as is a proportion of our Scottish operations. In addition, our Scottish operations are 100% certified against the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) standard, as are our freshwater sites in Ireland.

On the risk side, increased pressure from changing environmental conditions like increased seawater temperatures leading to higher sea lice pressure and more frequent events of harmful plankton and jellyfish, can results in challenging conditions for fish health and welfare. These conditions may increase the need to use medicines both for lice management and antibiotics for bacterial infections.

Strategic programs like increasing production of larger postsmolt (and therefore reducing production time at sea) as well new technological development (in vaccination, in lice management and in production methods such as through subsea farming) represent opportunities to improve fish health and welfare. Having Mowi Feed integrated into Mowi's value chain also represents an opportunity. Promoting fish welfare, resilience and well-being remain integral in our feeding strategy and feed development. We have elevated the use of functional ingredients to support fish welfare when exposed to conditions that may compromise the skin and gills.

Our internal reporting systems allow a good understanding on how animal welfare is safeguarded. In addition, our global technical teams which include fish health and veterinarians meet on a frequent basis, both internally and externally with other stakeholders on a continuous basis to understand and manage impacts, risks and opportunities linked with animal welfare.

Management of impacts, risks and opportunities Policies

We have three policies governing our actions towards improving animal welfare:

Policy on salmon welfare

Mowi fully recognises salmon as sentient animals. Good welfare requires disease prevention and veterinary treatment, appropriate shelter, management, nutrition, humane handling and humane slaughter. Mowi recognises animal welfare as a strategic business consideration.

Mowi's policy on salmon welfare serves as a global (Mowi Group) policy, covering all our farmed Atlantic salmon, at all farm sites and in all countries. This policy is complemented by internal standards and position statements on specific welfare related topics, such as medicine use, harvesting methods and genetically modified salmon. In addition, our Code of Conduct requires that our suppliers adhere to animal welfare practices no less stringent than our own and to undertake appropriate measures and risk assessments to minimise potential welfare impacts from new equipment, products or services. Mowi's training on animal welfare is made available for relevant suppliers. This policy applies to farmed Atlantic salmon, which is the only species that Mowi produces for human consumption. It also applies to all Mowi brand products. All principles stated in our policy apply to 100% of farmed Atlantic salmon farmed and processed by Mowi. Key components of our policy to safeguard animal welfare are:

  • Train our employees
  • Farm under optimal environmental conditions
  • Secure optimal health and, when needed, responsible medicine use
  • Apply optimal and bespoke feed, and feeding practices
  • Vigilance of fish behaviour
  • Apply humane slaughtering methods
  • Apply internal and global fish welfare standards
  • Ensure service and equipment suppliers adopt the same standards
  • Monitor and report Operational Welfare Indicators
  • Continuously improve through appropriate R&D

Policy on Integrated Pest Management (IPM) for sea lice control

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) involves a comprehensive and systematic approach to pest management and is considered highly important for effective sea lice management. IPM for sea lice is based upon proven techniques and approaches to terrestrial

pest/parasite management for agriculture systems. It accounts for multiple objectives in managing the situation, considers available preventive and intervention options and makes informed decisions aimed at achieving optimal results. Mowi recognises the importance of IPM to mitigate lice infection pressure, resistance development and medicine use, and optimise lice control in our operations. The following key elements are identified as part of Mowi's IPM approach: lice levels and monitoring, husbandry and management, prevention, intervention, reporting and R&D.

Policy on Responsible Medicinal Use (antimicrobial agents)

This policy outlines Mowi's approach towards responsible use of licensed antimicrobial veterinary medicines and minimising the risks of development of antimicrobial resistance, while ensuring compliance with all respective laws and regulations. Furthermore, this policy ensures that any use of antimicrobial agents is in line with World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines to mitigate the risk of human health consequences related to development of antimicrobial resistant bacteria.

We restrict use of antimicrobials and do not use them routinely, and we never use any antimicrobials (critically important, medically important or otherwise) for the purposes of growth promotion, prevention of infectious diseases or for control of dissemination. Antimicrobials are only used prudently, responsibly and under veterinary prescription and supervision. Medically important antimicrobials are restricted for disease treatment only. We prohibit the use of Highest Priority Critically Important Antimicrobials in our operations. Those listed as critically important for human medicine are only used as exemptions under the judgement, prescription and supervision of a veterinary professional, and if microbial sensitivity results demonstrate that the selected antimicrobial is the only possible treatment option. Medicines are always applied in a responsible manner and we ensure there are no flesh residues at harvest.

Actions and resources

Our actions towards safeguarding animal welfare are clustered into three main areas: sea lice management, responsible medicinal use and increasing survival.

Sea lice management

We work intensely to continuously improve our approaches to sea lice management and minimise the number of adult female lice at our sites, especially during the period when wild salmon migrate to sea. Our goal is to manage sea lice in an integrated manner and avoid an over-reliance on the use of medicines, through the application of strategic, preventive, biological and non-medicinal measures. We continue to respect the precautionary statutory limits on the maximum number of lice per fish, set by relevant authorities. We continuously develop better management practices, new solutions and sharing best sea lice management practices between our operations. Together with our academic and commercial partners, we target innovative and non-medicinal solutions for more gentle control of lice, and we update our policies and best practices accordingly, on a regular basis.

Maintaining low levels of sea lice at our seawater sites remains a top priority. Together with our academic and commercial partners, and relevant suppliers, we will continue to optimise existing solutions, develop novel and cost-effective methods and increase our focus on the use and welfare of cleaner fish. Focus on new technologies for preventative lice strategies, including, submerge pens, semiclosed containment systems but also on non-invasive and passive treatment concepts. In Chile and Canada we will continue to develop and operationalise non-medicinal treatment systems. Our ambition is to ensure that sea lice control is based principally on preventive, integrated and non-medicinal approaches, allowing us to reduce the need for medication. While licensed medicines remain a tool in the integrated management of sea lice, we will continue to develop and implement non-medicinal control methods and advance our breeding programme for lice resistance.

We report sea lice levels to the relevant national authorities at the required frequency, and data on our sea lice levels are publicly available (eg. Barentswatch in Norway) and provided in our policy on Integrated Pest Management.

Responsible medicinal use

With our strong focus on optimising fish survival and preventing disease, licensed medicines are only used when absolutely necessary. Used in rotation, sea lice medicines are additional tools for integrated management and ensuring lice from farms do not impact wild salmonids. We only use licensed antimicrobial medicines when fish health and welfare are at risk from bacterial infection. We adopt the recommendations and support best practices as outlined in the World Health Organisation's "WHO guidelines on use of medically important antimicrobials in food-producing animals" and the WHO list of Critically Important Antimicrobials for Human Medicine, to reduce the risks of development of antimicrobial resistance.

Only when specific bacterial infections are diagnosed, and there is no alternative, do we treat fish with licensed medicines. If used, strict policies and regulations apply.

Reducing the use of antimicrobials remains an important focus for Mowi. We have a strong focus on biosecurity practises and its ability to prevent known and unknown pathogens. Several R&D and strategic initiatives on SRS (including genomic selection, new/ improved bespoken vaccines), together with relevant stakeholders, are expected to reduce biological risk and contribute to decreases in antimicrobial use going forward. We continue to address the issue of antimicrobial resistance and management, and engage in the Chilean Salmon Antimicrobial Reduction Programme and Global GAP Aquaculture Technical Committee. in 2024 we also engaged in "the Yelcho Project" an collaboration between the industry partners and Chilean Agricultural and Livestock Service (SAG), and the National Fisheries and Aquaculture Service (Sernapesca) with the aim of reducing antimicrobial usage.

We work continuously with academic and commercial partners, and relevant suppliers, to discover and research new approaches and alternative treatments for the management of bacterial infections, including research on probiotics, phage-therapies, genomic selection and novel vaccine technologies.

Increasing survival rates

Further development of new and gentler systems for sea lice treatment, implementation of new/improved vaccines and health products, mitigative approaches to gill challenges, advances in genomic selection for disease resistance and the outputs from several important R&D projects are expected to contribute towards achieving our goal of >99.5% survival (average % monthly survival rate) in both freshwater and seawater by 2030.

We continue to drive and support research initiatives and the development of better industry practices in the area of fish health and welfare, together with relevant research institutes, commercial partners and suppliers. Focusing more intently on biosecurity practices, together with welfare monitoring and improved or newly developed diagnostic services, remain essential to continually improve survival rates. Our future efforts will also remain dedicated to enhancing the production of robust smolts and advancing postsmolt strategies through the use of functional feeds, all aimed at further improving welfare standards and survival.

Through machine learning and perception, smart underwater cameras and sensing systems provide deeper insights into fish behaviour, health status and well-being at our freshwater and marine sites. This allows us to be more proactive on identifying and mitigating biological risks, while informing how best to care for our fish. Automatic sea lice counting, which eliminates fish handling, provides continual and accurate tracking of lice levels, enabling treatment intervention at the optimal time. Another example is the development of in-situ monitoring of Operational Welfare Indicators (OWIs), whereby specific OWIs can be tracked on thousands of individual fish per day.

The development of biotechnological tools for rapid detection of pathogens and disease diagnosis have become a cornerstone of modern fish health management. Such methods are extremely accurate and efficient, allowing our fish health professionals to make precise decisions and devise bespoke health management plans. Furthermore, in the coming years, machine learning will be used for routine histological examinations, leading to faster and more efficient ways of quantifying histopathological tissue changes.

A new era of vaccine technologies is emerging which, together with current high-tech individual imaging at vaccination (ensuring injection point precision), will change the face of fish vaccination.

Another notable development is the application of Smart technologies for plankton surveillance, which are being developed at a rapid pace. Digital technologies such as underwater sensors, drones and machine learning for species recognition are being used for rapid detection, and to augment response time and mitigation of potentially harmful algae and plankton. Our procedures on plankton monitoring and mitigation practices, together with continuous training on plankton surveillance, risk management and response plans, contribute to reducing losses. In Chile, Canada, Scotland, Ireland and at-risk regions in Norway we apply monitoring protocols adapted to seasonal risk, ensuring that surveillance is carried out on a frequent basis during high-risk periods. During harmful algal bloom events we follow a management and response plan to protect our fish and use measures such as aeration systems, cessation of surface feeding and guiding fish to safer depths

using deep lights. In addition, fish potentially vulnerable to algal blooms are relocated to other unaffected sites/areas if there is no biosecurity or welfare risk from such an operation.

We continuously search for new farming, technological and health solutions and we will continue to engage and support research institutes, health product/service suppliers and relevant stakeholders to advance fish welfare and well-being in our operations. Our R&D portfolio includes, but is not limited to, research and data analytics on the main causes for reduced survival, nutritional health, production related disorders and harvesting methods. We will continue to engage with stakeholders on the development of Operational Welfare Indicator monitoring for farmed raised salmon, and target 50% of sites with real-time monitoring globally by 2030. Implementation of real-time welfare monitoring of wounds supported by smart farming technology, in conjunction with a 10-point action plan (wounds, gills and algae/ jellyfish), is expected to improve survival.

We report survival rates to the relevant authorities, at the required frequency. This data is also publicly available eg. Barentswatch in Norway.

Sea lice management

We again progressed towards our goal of managing sea lice in an integrated and sustainable manner, and reducing the use of medicines. We continue to use cleaner fish and non-medicinal treatment systems and continually work on developing alternative solutions. In 2024, we once again increased our R&D activities on lice management and made good progress on several important projects to develop novel solutions for safe and cost-efficient control.

Preventive management tools (skirts, deep lights, deep feeding, and a combination of these) were used more extensively in 2024. In our operations where non-medicinal treatment systems are available (all farming countries except the Faroes in 2024), an average of

63% (44%) of all treated fish were treated using such systems. The development of non-medicinal treatment systems continued in all our operations, with the aim to use them more efficiently going forward.

Further advancements were made in cleaner fish production in Norway, Scotland and Ireland, and we continued our investment in cleaner fish R&D. In 2024, we continued the roll-out of our strategy to improve the efficiency of cleaner fish and reduce losses. On average, 50% (66%) of our seawater sites with access to cleaner fish (all farming countries except Chile and Canada West) utilised them for lice control in 2024.

We continued to register the percentage of sites above national sea lice limits on a monthly basis across our business units. If a site was registered above the limit, then action was taken to bring the site below the limit. Meaning, all sites registered above the limit were treated to, again, be below the limit. For Canada West, Ireland and Scotland, any sites above the limit were brought below the limit within the regulatory defined time period. These time periods are now factored into our calculations. For Mowi Group, the percentage of sites above national sea lice limits was 7% (2%) in 2024. The latter are attributed to the extra ordinary environmental situation with elevated sea water temperatures than normal impacting our operation mainly in northern Norway as for the rest of the industry.

Sea lice treatment losses continue to decrease in 2024 by 6% (based on biomass) and we will continue to strengthen our efforts to develop integrated approaches and gentle non-medicinal treatment systems for lice control.

Licensed medicines for sea lice control were prescribed and used only when required, under the supervision of authorised veterinarians and fish health professionals. The use of licensed medicine was halved from 2023 to 2024. The same applies to hydrogen peroxide. From 2023 to 2024 the total active substance used (g + ltr) decreased from 2.52 to 1.15/t biomass produced.

Responsible medicinal use

Licensed medicines for bacterial infections were prescribed and only used when required, and always under the supervision of authorised veterinarians and fish health professionals. In total, our use of antimicrobials (gram of active substance per tonne produced) to combat bacterial infections increased to 98g (82g) in 2024. Again, no antimicrobials were used in our operations in Norway, the Faroe Islands or Iceland in 2024. Satisfactory decreases were again observed in Scotland. This was achieved through the continuation of vaccination against Pasteurella Skyensis and yersinia with good results as well as increasing fish robustness to bacterial infection through several new and improved management practises such as strategy for controlling AGD, jellyfish and sea lice control. While a reduction was observed in Ireland, as an effect of mitigation practises against Salmonid Rickettsial Septicemia (SRS) such as vaccination, we continue to work on further reduction. Increases incurred in our operations in Canada and Chile. For the former, this was associated with increased challenges with mouth lesions due to Tenacibaculum spp. Multiple approaches are being pursued to mitigate the situation and ongoing trials are being conducted on different husbandry practices and treatment methods. For Chile, the Salmonid Rickettsial Septicemia (SRS) remains a challenge across the entire industry. A combination of increased detection of the more virulent strain (LF-89), reduced vaccine efficacy, and environmental factors such as low oxygen levels and algal blooms has made SRS more challenging to manage in 2024. We are actively working on several initiatives, both internally and in collaboration with external partners. One such initiative, the Yelcho Project, aims to develop new and improved vaccine alternatives. Other key efforts includes genetic selection, the development of enhanced health feeds, and strategies to increase fish robustness through gentle sea lice treatment methods. These initiatives are expected to contribute to overall fish health and resilience against bacterial infections, ultimately reducing the need for antimicrobial use in the future.

The two antimicrobials used in 2024 are classified as Highly Important Antimicrobials (HIA). No Highest Priority Critically Important Antimicrobials (HPCIA) or Critically Important Antimicrobials (CIA) were used in our operations. An overview of our use of antimicrobials per territory is shown at the end of this section. The number of fish treated with antimicrobials remained very low, with 0.1 % (0.8%) treated in freshwater and 6.8 % (5.9%) in seawater.

Increasing survival rates and welfare

In 2024, the Group monthly survival rate* (fish numbers; based on GSI definition) increased slightly in seawater to 99.3% (99.2%%) and was kept stable at the same levels for freshwater 99.4% (99.4%). Freshwater average monthly survival rate (based on fish number ≥1g, which corresponds to the completion of transition to exogenous feeding) for the Group ranged from 99.3-99.8% across our farming entities. Survival rate increased in Ireland, Canada East, Scotland, Faroes and Iceland, and decreased slightly in Chile and Canada West. As a result of our continuous focus to reduce the risk of infectious disease, this accounted for 48% of the total number of fish lost during the year. The remaining 52% was attributed to non-infectious causes. We expect that the continuation of the implementation of our postsmolt strategy (deploying larger smolts to sea), shielding technologies (such as submerged pens and closecontainments at sea) and more gentle lice management systems (such as lasers) will further improve survival rates.

* reported in accordance with the Global Salmon Initiative (GSI) methodology: (total # mortality in sea last 12 months / (closing # in sea last month + total # mortality # in sea last 12 months + total # harvested last 12 months + total # culled fish in sea) X 100)/12

Losses associated with Cardiomyopathy Syndrome (CMS), Pancreas Disease (PD) and Heart, Skeletal Muscle Inflammation (HSMI) and amoebic gill disease (AGD) were reduced by 74%, 78%, 34% and 41% respectively in 2024 compared with 2023. Decreased survival was associated with Salmonid Rickettsial Septicaemia (SRS), gill infections, wounds and algae/plankton. The latter 3 are all attributed to extraordinary environmental conditions with elevated seawater temperatures and significant presence of plankton & jellyfish in our operations in Ireland, Scotland, Canada and Norway. However, our surveillance programmes, management and response plans contributed to mitigating the severity of such incidents to a larger extent. SRS cases have risen due to an increase in prevalence of a more virulent strain showing lower vaccine efficacy. With respect to losses associated with sea lice treatments, we continue to improve and decrease treatment losses in 2024 by 6 % (11%).

Through the continued application of our strict risk management approach for Infectious Salmon Anaemia (ISA), and vaccination in areas of highest risk, only 1 (3) cases of ISA was recorded in Norway in 2024.

To further safeguard fish welfare and well-being, we continuously tracked stocking densities across all seawater sites and countries, ensuring actual densities were consistently and significantly lower than regulatory maximum limits. Average monthly standing stocking density (measured as kg of fish, biomass, divided by the volume of the pen in m 3 ) for the Group in 2024 was 6.7 kg/m 3 (7.1 kg/m 3 ). According to our standardised global system for welfare monitoring on our seawater sites, total welfare score recorded was very good and averaged 1.3 (1.5) on a scale of 0-30.

Through our breeding and genomic selection programme, we made further advancements in our selection of fish stocks with resistance to PD, CMS and sea lice, and this is again expected to result in further improvements in survival rates.

SRS, gill health, plankton and jellyfish and sores (wounds), along with sea lice treatment losses, remain our priority areas for improvement. In addition, we will continue to work on addressing environmental related fish health challenges and develop improved strategies to manage incidents that negatively affect survival, together with relevant stakeholders.

TO THE GENERAL MEETING IN MOWI ASA

INDEPENDENT SUSTAINABILITY AUDITOR'S LIMITED ASSURANCE REPORT

Limited assurance conclusion

We have conducted a limited assurance engagement on the consolidated sustainability statement of Mowi ASA («the Group») included in the Sustainability Statement of the Board of Directors' report (the "Sustainability Statement"), as at 31 December 2024 and for the year then ended.

Based on the procedures we have performed and the evidence we have obtained, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Sustainability Statement is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act section 2-3, including:

  • compliance with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), including that the process carried out by the Group to identify the information reported in the Sustainability of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities", and
  • Article 8 of EU Regulation 2020/852 (the "Taxonomy Regulation").

Statement (the "Process") is in accordance with the description set out in subsection "Description • compliance of the disclosures in subsection EU taxonomy of the Sustainability Statement with

Basis for conclusion

We conducted our limited assurance engagement in accordance with International Standard on Assurance Engagements (ISAE) 3000 (Revised), Assurance engagements other than audits or reviews of historical financial information ("ISAE 3000 (Revised)"), issued by the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board.

We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our conclusion. Our responsibilities under this standard are further described in the Sustainability auditor's responsibilities section of our report.

Our independence and quality management

We have complied with the independence and other ethical requirements as required by relevant laws and regulations in Norway and the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) issued by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA Code), which is founded on fundamental principles of integrity, objectivity, professional competence and due care, confidentiality and professional behavior.

The firm applies International Standard on Quality Management 1, which requires the firm to design, implement and operate a system of quality management including policies or procedures regarding compliance with ethical requirements, professional standards and applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

Other matter

The comparative information included in the Sustainability Statement was not subject to an assurance engagement. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Responsibilities for the Sustainability Statement

The Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer (management) are responsible for designing and implementing a process to identify the information reported in the Sustainability Statement in accordance with the ESRS and for disclosing this Process in subsection "Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities" of the Sustainability Statement. This responsibility includes:

  • understanding the context in which the Group's activities and business relationships take place and developing an understanding of its affected stakeholders;
  • the identification of the actual and potential impacts (both negative and positive) related to sustainability matters, as well as risks and opportunities that affect, or could reasonably be expected to affect, the, Group's financial position, financial performance, cash flows, access to finance or cost of capital over the short-, medium-, or long-term;
  • the assessment of the materiality of the identified impacts, risks and opportunities related to sustainability matters by selecting and applying appropriate thresholds; and
  • making assumptions that are reasonable in the circumstances.

Management is further responsible for the preparation of the Sustainability Statement, in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act section 2-3, including:

  • compliance with the ESRS;
  • preparing the disclosures in subsection EU taxonomy of the Sustainability Statement, in compliance with the Taxonomy Regulation;
  • designing, implementing and maintaining such internal control that management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the Sustainability Statement that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and
  • the selection and application of appropriate sustainability reporting methods and making assumptions and estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.

Inherent limitations in preparing the Sustainability Statement

In reporting forward-looking information in accordance with ESRS, management is required to prepare the forward-looking information on the basis of disclosed assumptions about events that may occur in the future and possible future actions by the Group's. Actual outcomes are likely to be different since anticipated events frequently do not occur as expected.

Sustainability auditor's responsibilities

Our responsibility is to plan and perform the assurance engagement to obtain limited assurance about whether the Sustainability Statement is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a limited assurance report that includes our conclusion. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence decisions of users taken on the basis of the Sustainability Statement as a whole.

As part of a limited assurance engagement in accordance with ISAE 3000 (Revised) we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the engagement.

Our responsibilities in respect of the Sustainability Statement, in relation to the Process, include:

  • Obtaining an understanding of the Process, but not for the purpose of providing a conclusion on the effectiveness of the Process, including the outcome of the Process;
  • Considering whether the information identified addresses the applicable disclosure requirements of the ESRS; and

• Designing and performing procedures to evaluate whether the Process is consistent with the and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities".

Company's description of its Process set out in subsection "Description of the process to identify

Our other responsibilities in respect of the Sustainability Statement include:

• Identifying where material misstatements are likely to arise, whether due to fraud or error; and • Designing and performing procedures responsive to where material misstatements are likely to arise in the Sustainability Statement. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery,

  • intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

Summary of the work performed

A limited assurance engagement involves performing procedures to obtain evidence about the Sustainability Statement. The procedures in a limited assurance engagement vary in nature and timing from, and are less in extent than for, a reasonable assurance engagement. Consequently, the level of assurance obtained in a limited assurance engagement is substantially lower than the assurance that would have been obtained had a reasonable assurance engagement been performed.

The nature, timing and extent of procedures selected depend on professional judgement, including the identification of disclosures where material misstatements are likely to arise in the Sustainability Statement, whether due to fraud or error.

In conducting our limited assurance engagement, with respect to the Process, we:

o performing inquiries to understand the sources of the information used by management (e.g., stakeholder engagement, business plans and strategy documents), and o reviewing the Company's internal documentation of its Process, and

Statement Of Cash Flow

Note 1 - General information

Mowi farms Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), both in seawater using pens or semi-closed containment systems and in freshwater using lochs (in Scotland only), flow-through and Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (for smolts and postsmolts). Mowi does not use juvenile seeds stocks captured in the wild as input to our salmon production. Production volumes are presented in Part 1. Production countries and location of assets are disclosed also in Part 1 and in our Capital Markets Day presentation.

Comparable information for one year is presented in this year's Annual Report.

The financial statements were authorised by the Board of Directors on March 25, 2025.

Note 2 - Accounting policies

December 31, 2024. Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or is entitled, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.

Generally, there is a presumption that a majority of voting rights results in control. To support this presumption and when the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights in an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee.

Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary.

Investment in associated companies

Associated companies are companies in which the Group has a significant non-controlling interest (normally ownership of 20-50%). Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee, but not to exercise control or joint control over those policies.

The Group's investments in its associated companies are accounted for using the equity method. The financial statements of the associate are prepared for the same reporting period as the Group. When necessary, adjustments are made to bring their accounting policies in line with those of the Group.

The statement of comprehensive income reflects the Group's share of the results deriving from the associate's operations.

Foreign currency translation

The financial statements for the Group are presented in EUR, which is the functional currency of the parent company. The functional currency of the subsidiaries is their local currency, with the exception of the holding companies in Norway in addition to Mowi ASA, Mowi Seawater Norway AS, Mowi Markets Norway AS, Mowi

Mowi ASA is a Norwegian company headquartered at Sandviksboder 77A/B, 5035 Bergen. Mowi ASA is a publicly listed company on the Oslo Stock Exchange, with the ticker symbol MOWI.

The Group's operations are described in Note 4. Mowi has operations in 26 countries and has structured its operations in three Business Areas: Feed, Farming and Sales & Marketing. The Feed factories are located in Norway and Scotland. The Group's farming activities are located in Norway, Scotland, Canada, Chile, Ireland, Iceland and the Faroe Islands. Sales & Marketing comprises the global sales organisation, in addition to the value-added operations in Consumer Products.

The material accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are described below. These policies have been consistently applied to all periods presented.

Statement of compliance and basis of preparation

As of December 31, 2024, the consolidated financial statements of Mowi ASA and its subsidiaries (''the Group'' or ''Mowi'') have been prepared in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU. In compliance with the Norwegian Accounting Act, additional disclosures are included in the notes to the financial statements of Mowi ASA.

Any new standards and amendments adopted by the Group in 2024 are described in Note 33. At the end of 2024, new standards and changes to existing standards and interpretations have been enacted but are not yet effective. Any relevant effects for Mowi are further described in Note 33.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except when IFRS requires recognition at fair value. This relates to the measurement of certain financial instruments and valuation of the biomass as further described below. The reporting period follows the calendar year.

Consolidation

Consolidated financial statements present the Group's financial position, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flow. All intragroup transactions, receivables and liabilities are eliminated.

When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group's accounting policies.

Subsidiaries

The Group's consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the parent and its subsidiaries as at

Notes

Feed AS, Arctic Fish Holding AS, and Waynor Trading AS which have EUR as their functional currency, subsidiaries in Chile, Singapore, and Vietnam which have USD as their functional currency, and subsidiaries in Iceland which have EUR as their functional currency.

On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of any net investment in foreign entities are recognised in other comprehensive income. When a foreign operation is sold the associated exchange differences are reclassified to profit or loss, as part of the gain or loss on sale.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the closing rate.

Translation of transactions in foreign subsidiaries

Profit or loss transactions in foreign subsidiaries are translated to the presentation currency using the average exchange rate for the reporting month, unless exchange rates in the period have fluctuated significantly, in which case the exchange rates in effect on the transaction dates are applied. Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated at the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period.

Transactions in foreign currencies

Foreign currency transactions are translated using the exchange rate at the time of the transaction. Receivables, debt and other monetary items in foreign currency are measured at the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period, and the translation differences are recognised in profit or loss. Other assets in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.

Financial instruments - initial and subsequent measurement

Financial assets

The Group´s financial assets are derivatives, non-listed equity instruments, trade receivables and cash and cash equivalents.

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset's contractual cash flow characteristics and the Group's business model for managing them. Except for trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component, the Group initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs.

The Group classified its financial assets into 2 categories: financial assets at amortised cost and financial asset at fair value through profit and loss. The Group does not apply hedge accounting.

Derivatives at fair value through profit and loss

Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss include financial assets held for trading, financial assets designated through profit or loss, or financial assets mandatorily required to be measured at fair value. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near terms. Derivatives, including embedded derivatives, are also classified as held for trading.

The category includes derivatives instruments such as foreign exchange contracts, interest rate swaps and salmon derivatives. The Group trades in salmon derivatives, both as an operational hedging activity and a financial activity. Operational trading of salmon derivatives is presented as other operating income, while financial trading of salmon derivatives is presented as other financial items.

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as loans and borrowings, payables, or as financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss (derivatives), as appropriate. Financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.

Derivatives are financial liabilities when the fair value is negative, accounted for as derivatives as assets.

Financial liabilities that arise from supplier finance arrangement are classified within Trade payables in the statement of financial position if they have a similar nature and function to trade payables. This is the case if the supplier finance arrangement is part of the working capital used in the normal operating cycle, and the terms of the liabilities that are part of the supply chain finance arrangement are not substantially different from the terms of trade payables that are not part of the arrangement. Cash flows related to liabilities arising from supplier finance arrangements that are classified in Trade payables in the statement of financial position are included in operating activities in the statement of cash flow.

Revenue

Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of the goods are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods. The Group has generally concluded that it is the principal in its revenue arrangements, because it typically controls the goods before transferring them to the customer.

Sale of fish products

Revenue for the Group derives mainly from the sale of fish and elaborated fish products either on spot sales or from contracts. The Group recognises revenue from the sale of fish and elaborated fish products at the point in time when control of the goods is transferred to the customer. Revenue is generally recognised on delivery of the goods (i.e. a certain point in time). Based on group business of sale of fish and elaborated fish products the customers do not pay any advances. The normal credit term is 30 days upon delivery, and based on the nature of the product there is generally no right of return or warranties. Refund is only given if delivered goods is damaged or delivered with discrepancy compared to agreement, such is immaterial.

The Group considers whether there are other promises in the contract that are separate performance obligations to which a portion of the transaction price needs to be allocated, currently no multiple performance obligations have been identified. In determining the transaction price for the sale of goods, the Group considers the effects of variable consideration, the existence of significant financing components and consideration payable to

the customer (if any). At the balance sheet date the group has no outstanding performance obligations in contracts that have original duration of more than 1 year.

Biomass

Changes in the estimated fair value of the biomass are recognised in profit or loss. The fair value adjustment is presented in the statement of comprehensive income as "Net fair value adjustment biomass". The net fair value adjustment consists of "fair value adjustment on biological assets", "fair value adjustment on harvested fish" and "fair value on incident based mortality", see Note 6. The fair value adjustment on biological assets represents the change in fair value of the biomass less the change in accumulated cost of production for the biomass. The fair value adjustment on harvested fish is the release from stock of the fair value adjustment related to the fish harvested in the period. The fair value adjustment on incident based mortality is the release from stock of the fair value adjustment related to the fish recognised as incident based mortality in the period. The accumulated cost of incident based mortality is included in "cost of materials" in the statement of comprehensive income.

Goodwill and licenses

Goodwill

Goodwill is initially measured at cost, and is the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the amount recognised for a non-controlling interest in the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed through a business combination.

After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group's cash-generating units (CGU) that are expected to benefit from the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units.

Where goodwill has been allocated to a CGU and part of the operation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the disposed operation is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal. Goodwill disposed of in such circumstance is measured on the basis of the relative values of the disposed operation and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually as at December 31, and when circumstances otherwise indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. Impairment is determined for goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of each CGU (or group of CGUs) to which the goodwill relates. When the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than its carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised. Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods.

Other intangible assets (licenses)

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination is their fair value at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or

indefinite. The value of licenses acquired by Mowi (mainly licenses for salmon farming) in Norway, Chile, Ireland, the Faroe Islands, Scotland, Canada, and Iceland are considered indefinite. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortised, but are tested for impairment annually or when circumstances otherwise indicate that the carrying value may be impaired at the cash-generating unit level. The indefinite life classification is reviewed annually to determine whether it continues to be appropriate. If not, the change in useful life from indefinite to finite is made on a prospective basis.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are measured at acquisition cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment. Costs associated with normal maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Costs of major replacements and renewals that substantially extend the economic life and functionality of the asset are capitalised. Assets are normally considered property, plant and equipment if the useful economic life exceeds one year. Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset form part of the cost of that asset. Straightline depreciation is applied over the useful life of property, plant and equipment, based on the asset's historical cost and estimated residual value at disposal. If a substantial part of an asset has an individual and different useful life, this part is depreciated separately. The asset's residual value and useful life are evaluated annually. The gain or loss arising from the disposal or retirement of an asset is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset.

At the end of the reporting period, the carrying amounts of the Group's assets are reviewed to determine whether there are indications that specific assets have suffered an impairment loss. If such indications exist, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of net present value of discounted cash flows (value in use). If estimated recoverable amount is lower than book value impairment is recognised.

Impairment of Non-current assets

Upon indication, each cash generating unit, CGU, is tested for impairment. If the recoverable amount of a cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than the carrying amount of the net assets of the cash-generating unit, impairment to the recoverable amount is recognised. If impairment is required, goodwill is written down first, thereafter other intangible assets. If further impairment is required, other assets will be written down on a pro-rata basis.

Impairment losses recognised in previous periods are reversed if the recoverable amount in a later period exceeds the carrying amount. The reversal will not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years.

Leasing

The determination of whether a contract is, or contains, a lease is assessed at the inception of the lease and is based on whether the contract conveys a right to control the use of an identified asset or assets for a period of time in exchange for consideration. For contracts where the Group is the lessee, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognised at the commencement of the lease.

Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and the useful life of the asset. When a purchase option has been included in the cost at recognition, the right-of-use asset is depreciated over the estimated useful life of the asset.

The lease liabilities at commencement date is measured at the present value of the lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the Group's incremental borrowing rate as the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. The incremental borrowing rate for each business unit is based on SOFR with an addition of a country specific margin reflecting the interest the group would have had to pay to borrow the funds to purchase a similar asset in a similar economic environment .

Short term leases (lease term less than 12 months) and leases of low-value assets are not recognised as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, as the recognition exemptions for these leases is applied. Lease payments of such leases are recognised as expense over the lease term.

For leasing contracts with optional renewal period, and where we are reasonably certain to exercise this option, the renewal periods are included in the calculation of the lease liability and asset.

The Group has lease contracts for various assets used in its operation, the main asset group being transportation. Lease terms and other conditions vary. Refer to note 29 for further information.

Inventory

Inventories mainly comprise feed, goods in progress, packaging materials and finished goods. Inventories of goods are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

The cost of finished goods includes direct material costs, direct personnel expenses and indirect processing costs (full production cost). Interest costs are not included in the inventory value. The cost price of purchased goods is the actual purchase price. The cost is based on the principle of first-in first-out, except for feed and value-

location is included as part of the rate of return. Thus, the value is to a lesser degree affected by the site because low production cost at a high quality site is offset by a higher imputed rent and vice versa. All surplus return in the future is assigned to the licenses through a similarly high imputed rent of assets, and where any shortage in return is recognised in profit and loss immediately. The interpolation model is updated every month, with best estimates for time of harvest, remaining months at sea, expected price at time of harvest and estimated residual cost to grow the fish to harvest weight. The methodology has the effect that any changes in price will have full effect on the biomass at hand, while the price effect on increased weight going forward will be allocated to the license and recognised over time as remaining time at sea decreases. An effect of this is that even with high salmon prices there is no profit at the time the fish is put to sea because all surplus return is assigned to future periods (licenses). Correspondingly the fair value of small fish is rather insensitive to price fluctuations.

added-products, where a weighted average is used. If fish farmed by the Group is included in inventory as a raw material for further processing in one of the Group's processing entities, such fish is included in inventory at fair value less cost to sell at harvest. Biological assets Fair value of biological assets is calculated based on a present value model which does not rely on historical cost. Fish ready for harvest (mature fish), are valued at expected sales price with a deduction of cost related to harvest, transport etc. For fish not ready for harvest (immature fish), cost to completion is also deducted. The model uses an interpolation methodology where the known data points are the value of the fish when put to sea and when recognised as mature fish. Technically, the interpolation is calculated per location. The effect of this is that fish that have the same weight and quality are valued similarly. The interpolation model has a natural interpretation in the form of a present value calculation where an imputed rent of assets (i.e. theoretical license rent) per The calculation of the estimated fair value is based on market prices for harvested fish and adjusted for estimated differences in accordance with IFRS 13. The prices are reduced for harvesting costs and freight costs to market, to arrive at a net value back to farm. The valuation reflects the expected quality grading and size distribution. The valuation is completed for each Business Unit and is based on the biomass in sea for each seawater site and the estimated market price in each market derived from the development in recent contracts as well as spot prices. Where reliable forward prices are available, those have been used. The change in estimated fair value is recognised in profit or loss based on measurement as of each period, and is classified separately. At harvest, the fair value adjustment is classified as fair value adjustment on harvested fish. In cases of incident based mortality, the fair value adjustment is classified as fair value adjustment on incident based mortality when occurring. Both are included in net fair value adjustment of biological assets in the statement of comprehensive income.

An interpolation model as described works best if important variables such as pace of growth, mortality and feed conversion ratios are constant per unit of time or weight increase. Experience shows that in particular there is a deviation from an even development during the first period in sea relating to increased value due, among other things to reduced risk after handling of the fish, vaccination and mortality related to the transfer to sea. This has been adjusted for.

Biological assets comprise eggs, juveniles, smolt and fish in the sea. Biological assets are, in accordance with IAS 41 and IFRS 13, measured at fair value less cost to sell. In line with IFRS 13, the highest and best use of the biological assets is applied for the valuation. In accordance with the principle for highest and best use, the fish is considered to have optimal harvest weight at 4 kg gutted. This corresponds to that a live weight of approximately 4.8 kg (there may be regional variances) or more are classified as mature fish, while fish that have still not achieved this weight are classified as immature fish. All fish at sea are subject to a fair value calculation, while broodstock and smolt are measured at cost less impairment losses.

Onerous contracts

At each reporting date, management assesses if there are contracts in which the unavoidable costs of meeting the Group's obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received in accordance with IAS 37. Fair value adjustment of biological assets is included in the unavoidable cost. This implies that the contract may be considered onerous even though the actual production cost of the products sold is lower than the contract price. Volumes used in the calculation is based on estimated remaining volumes for the contracts. Onerous contracts are classified as provisions in the statement of financial position.

Taxes

Income taxes comprise taxes on the taxable profit for the year, changes in deferred taxes and any adjustments in prior years' taxes. Taxes on transactions that are recorded in other comprehensive income or directly in equity do not form part of the tax expense in profit or loss and are recorded with the related transaction in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Tax payable is calculated using the nominal tax rate for the relevant tax jurisdiction at the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax is calculated on the basis of temporary differences between accounting and taxation values at the close of the accounting year. Deferred tax assets arise from temporary differences that give rise to future tax deductions. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that a taxable profit will arise, against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, can be utilised.

Tax increasing and tax decreasing temporary differences are offset against each other to the extent that the taxes can be netted within one tax regime.

Restructuring cost

Provisions for restructuring costs will be recognised if the Company has, within the reporting period, published or initiated a restructuring plan, which identifies which parts of the Company and approximately how many employees will be affected, the actions that will be taken and when the plan will be implemented. Provisions are recognised only for costs that cannot be associated with future earnings. Costs related to restructuring are presented on a separate line in the statement of comprehensive income.

Share option schemes

The Group has share option schemes from 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 which will be settled in shares (equity settlement). The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised as a payroll expense over the vesting period. The cumulative expense is recognised in other equity reserves within equity.

Cash flow statement and cash

The cash flow statement is prepared in accordance with the indirect method. Cash comprises cash and bank deposits, except funds which based on restriction do not qualify as cash.

Note 3A - Estimates and judgements

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make accounting estimates and judgments that affect the recognised amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on past experience and information perceived to be relevant and probable when the judgments are made. Estimates are reviewed on an on-going basis and actual values and results may deviate from these estimates. Adjustments to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised.

Mowi is exposed to a number of underlying economic factors which affect the overall results, such as salmon prices, foreign exchange rates and interest rates, as well as financial instruments with fair values derived from changes in these factors.

The matters described below are considered to be the most important in understanding the key sources of estimation uncertainty that are involved in preparing these consolidated financial statements and the uncertainties that could most significantly impact the amounts reported on the result of operations, financial position and cash flows.

Intangible assets - goodwill and farming licenses

The annual impairment test on intangible assets is based on a discounted cash flow model per cash-generating unit (CGU). The cash flows used in the calculations represent management's best estimate at the time of reporting. The assumptions used rest on uncertainty with regard to product prices, input prices, biological performance and future regulatory frameworks. Costs can normally be estimated with a higher degree of accuracy than income.

As profitability in the salmon farming industry historically has been very volatile, depending on developments in the price of salmon, Mowi uses budgets and long-term plans for the analysis.

The WACC model is used for estimating the discount rate. The input data for the model is updated every year for the annual impairment test. The choice of input data for the model significantly influences the outcome of the model, and to ensure that there is as little uncertainty as possible with regards to the calculation of the WACC, third-party sources are used where available (interest, inflation, beta). The WACC is calculated separately for the different CGUs. Indications of impairment that initiate testing beyond the year-end test include a significant reduction in the profitability of the CGU

Judgments

The matters described below are considered to be the most important in understanding the key sources of judgments that are involved in preparing these consolidated financial statements and the uncertainties that could most significantly impact the amounts reported on the result of operations, financial position and cash flows.

Licenses

The Group has assessed that all fish farming licenses have indefinite lives and, as such, are not amortised. Most of the jurisdictions in which the Group operates require us to obtain a license for each fish farm owned and operated in that jurisdiction. The Group has obtained and currently holds a license to own and operate each of our fish farms where a license is required. These licenses have indefinite lives or require renewal after a specific time period, but normally with automatic renewal and, as such, we have assessed that they have indefinite lives. However, the Group's licenses in each country are subject to certain requirements, and we risk penalties (including, in some cases, criminal charges), sanctions or even license revocation if we fail to comply with license requirements or related regulations. Also, local government may change the way licenses are renewed.

Supply chain financing

Two companies in the Group hold Supply Chain Finance (SCF) agreements meaning that some vendors will indirectly offer extended credit terms to the company through a separate agreement with a financial institution. The vendors sell their trade receivables to the financial institution in order to receive payment immediately. Payment terms under the SCF agreement are in line with industry practice. The transaction is still between the company and its suppliers, and the company does not waive the right to claim any refund on quality issues, return goods etc. towards the supplier.

The refinancing by vendors has no cash-flow impact on the company, and only when the trade payable is settled with the bank will the cash flow statement be impacted, with a operating cash flow charge. The group's assessment is that the liabilities under these SCF agreements are presented as trade payables. Please refer to note 18 for further information.

For further information about uncertainty in the valuation of intangible assets and impairment testing, please see Note 8, Impairment testing. Note 9, Intangible assets, illustrates the specification of intangible assets in the Group.

Biological assets

Biological assets comprise eggs, juveniles, smolt and fish in the sea. These assets are measured at fair value less cost to sell, unless the fair value cannot be measured reliably. The estimation of the fair value relies on a series of uncertain assumptions, e.g., biomass volume, biomass quality, size distribution, market prices, expected future costs, remaining time to harvest and total time to harvest.

Mowi measures all deviations in biomass volume compared to estimates when a site is harvested out. Except for situations where there has been an incident causing mass mortality, particularly early in the cycle, combined with an inability to count and weigh fish after the event in fear of further stressing the fish, volume deviations are normally minor. Similarly, excluding the effects of soft flesh and melanin, the quality of the fish can normally be estimated with a relatively high degree of accuracy. Categorisation of quality is normally set per country based on averages, but can be set individually per site when needed. The size distribution shows some degree of variation but normally not to an extent that significantly changes the estimated value of the biomass (the value of two fish at five kg is very similar to the value of two fish weighing four and six kg, respectively).

The accumulated cost of the fish per kg will only deviate from the estimate if the volume is different from the estimate. For the estimation of future costs, there is uncertainty with regard to feed prices, other input costs and biological development. Mowi measures cost deviations vs. budget as part of the follow up of business units. Excluding special situations (incidents etc.), the deviations in costs vs budgets are normally limited for a group of sites, although individual sites might show deviations. The estimation of costs influences the biomass value through the recognised fair value adjustment in the statements of comprehensive income and financial position (calculated as fair value less accumulated biological costs).

The key element in the estimation of fair value is the assumed market price. The assumed market price is the price that we expect to receive on the future date when the live fish is harvested. We derive these prices from a variety of sources, normally a combination of the prices achieved in the previous month and the contracts most recently entered into. For salmon of Norwegian, Scottish, Icelandic and Faroese origin, quoted forward prices (Nasdaq) are normally used in the estimation, see Note 2. The use of third-party forward prices improves the reliability and comparability of the price estimation.

Note 3B - Environmental risk

emissions (short-medium term impact). An increased recognition of seafood as a low carbon footprint protein is a transitional opportunity for Mowi.

These risks can affect Mowi in multiple ways, such as winters storms or El Niño giving tougher conditions, an increase of algae blooms and jelly fish due to increased water temperature can reduce quality and cause mortality on fish reducing revenue, or result in increased operating expenses with increased level of maintenance on nets and pens with tougher climate and expenses based on access to raw material in our fish feed, additional expenses for taxes with new regulation, or expenses to adapt our way of business to changed expectations from stakeholders. The changes, however, can also provide opportunities with faster growing fish in higher sea temperatures and increased revenues as well on the uptake of new technology. The risk can also impact the carrying amount and useful life of both tangible and intangible assets as weather tear or regulation might require earlier replacements.

These risks and opportunities are part of our risk assessment as part of the annual budget and long term plan process and considered in our impairment testing at year end. The long-term effects of climate change are uncertain, but we believe that Mowi will play an increasing role in producing healthy nutritious food through an ecoefficient value chain. No impairment related to environmental risk is recognised as of year end and there has been no change in useful life for our assets.

Note 4 - Business segments

For management purposes, Mowi is organised into three Business Areas: Feed, Farming and Sales & Marketing.

Business segments are components of a business that are regularly reviewed by its chief operating decision-makers for the purpose of assessing performance and allocating resources. The term business segments corresponds to operating segments as defined in IFRS 8. The Group Management Team is the Group's "chief operating decision-maker" ("CODM").

In Mowi the Feed Business Area consist of the feed factories in Norway and Scotland. Feed is considered to be a separate business segment due to the nature of the business (different economic characteristics (e.g similar long term average gross margin) compared to other business segments in the Group and separate management follow up).

The Farming Business Area consists of the farming and primary processing operations in Norway, Scotland, Canada, Chile, Ireland, the Faroe Islands and Iceland which are reported separately to CODM. The Farming operations are, due to similar production processes, a global market for both salmon feed and sales of salmon, in addition to similar biological risk factors, considered to

have similar economic characteristics (e.g similar long term average gross margin).

The Sales & Marketing Business Area consists of the Markets operations in the Americas and Europe, as well as Consumer Products. As the Markets operations (trading-related activities) are considered to have similar economic characteristics (e.g similar long term average gross margin), due to similar production processes and operational risk factors, and a common set of key performance indicators, they are presented as one reporting segment. Consumer Products, which comprises the value-added operations in Europe, Asia and America, is presented as a single separate reporting segment due to similar production processes, operational risk factors and a common set of key performance indicators (e.g similar long term average gross margin).

The business segments' performance is monitored in order to achieve the overall objective of maximising the operational EBIT per kg and margins. Consequently, reporting focuses on measuring and illustrating the overall profitability of the harvested volume, based on source of origin (operational EBIT per kg) and operational EBIT margin for the business segments Markets and Consumer Products. Legal entities with activities in both Farming and Sales

Climate change represents both risks and opportunities for Mowi. We recognise the growing significance of climate change on our business and the increasing role of producing food from the ocean as a solution to climate change. Mowi has developed a sustainability strategy, the Leading the Blue Revolution Plan. It sets ambitious goals to ensure our salmon is raised in the ocean in harmony with nature, using an eco-efficient value chain while offering solutions to global challenges such as climate change and food security.

Climate change has been identified as an operational, strategic, reporting and compliance risk to Mowi which can potentially impact our business in the short, medium, and long term. Mowi follows the COSO (Committee of Sponsoring Organisations) enterprise risk framework to assess and identify risks, including climate change risks. The risk of climate change on Mowi's financial position can be classified into two types of risks; physical risk and transition risk. Physical risks are related to the increase and severity of extreme weather and long-term environmental changes. The physical related climate risks relate mainly to extreme weather events and increased seawater temperatures which can impact the risk of escape incidents, the frequency of algae blooms, and the availability of the raw materials for our fish feed (medium to long term impact). Transition risks refer to the changes in technological advancements within clean energy, shifts in consumer behaviour and political interventions, such as restrictions and costs related to emissions etc. The transition risks and opportunities include legislation or regulations imposing overall caps or taxes on greenhouse gas

In the business segment reporting, internal profit related to unrealised gains from intra-group transactions are included in Operational EBIT for the relevant business segments, but eliminated in EBIT.

Operational EBIT and Operational EBITDA are non-IFRS financial measures. Operational EBIT is calculated by excluding certain items, according to the reconciliation below, from earnings before financial items and taxes (EBIT). Operational EBITDA is calculated by adding depreciation and amortisation to Operational EBIT, however Operational EBITDA excludes the effects of IFRS 16. For further explanations, see section Analytical information in this report.

The sustainability reporting follows the same reporting structure as the financial reporting structure described above.

& Marketing do not split their financial items or their statement of financial position. The CAPEX in these entities are recognised in the business segment Farming.

The pricing principle between Feed and Farming is set at market terms and benchmarked against third parties. The pricing principle between Farming and Sales & Marketing is based on market reference prices for spot sales, while contracts are at market terms, with the target for Sales & Marketing to maximise profit beyond these terms.

The same accounting principles as described for the consolidated financial statements have been applied to the business segment reporting. Inter-segment transfers or transactions are entered into under normal commercial terms and conditions, and the measurements used in the business segment reporting are the same as those used for the third-party transactions.

Note 6 - Biological assets

Valuation of biological assets

Biological assets are, in accordance with IAS 41, measured at fair value less cost to sell. All fish at sea are subject to a fair value calculation, while broodstock and smolt are measured at cost less impairment losses.

Biomass measured at fair value, is categorised at Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, as the input is mostly unobservable. In line with IFRS 13, the highest and best use of the biological assets is applied for the valuation. In accordance with the principle for highest and best use, we consider that the fish have optimal harvest weight at 4 kg gutted. This corresponds to a live weight of approximately 4.8 kg (there may be regional variances). Fish of this weight or above are classified as ready for harvest (mature fish), while fish that have still not achieved this weight are classified as not ready for harvest (immature fish). The valuations are carried out at business unit level based on a common model and basis for assumptions established at group level. All assumptions are subject to monthly quality assurance and analysis at the group level.

The valuations are based on an income approach and takes into consideration unobservable input based on biomass in the sea, the estimated growth rate and cost to completion at site level. Mortality, quality of the fish going forward and market price are considered at business unit level. A special assessment is performed for sites with high/low performance due to disease or other deviating factors. The market prices are derived from observable market prices where available.

Assumptions used for determining fair value of live fish

The estimated fair value of the biomass will always be based on uncertain assumptions, even though the group has built substantial expertise in assessing these factors. Estimates are applied to the following factors; biomass volume, the quality of the biomass, size distribution, cost, mortality and market prices.

Biomass volume: The biomass volume is in itself an estimate based on the number of smolt released into the sea, the estimated growth from the time of stocking, estimated mortality based on observed mortality in the period, etc. There is normally little uncertainty with regard to biomass volume.

The level of uncertainty will, however, be higher if an incident has resulted in mass mortality, especially early in the cycle, or if the fish's health status restricts handling. If the total biomass at sea was 1%

Mortality: Normalised mortality will affect the fair value estimates both as a reduction of estimated harvesting volumes and because cost to completion includes cost incurred on fish that eventually will perish.

Market price: The market price assumption is very important for the valuation and even minor changes in the market price will result in significant changes in the valuation. The methodology used for establishing the market price is explained in Note 2. A EUR 0.1 decrease in the market price would result in a decrease in value of EUR 20.3 million.

The market price risk is reduced through fixed price/volume customer contracts and financial contracts, as well as our downstream integration as explained in Note 13.

Climate Risk : Climate risk is included in the assessment for calculating the Fair value of live fish. Due to the short time period relevant for the Fair value uplift (maximum of 2 years) climate risk has not had a material effect on the valuation of biomass in sea.

Write-down of biomass and incident-based mortality

Incident-based mortality is accounted for when a site either experiences elevated mortality over time or substantial mortality due to an incident at the farm (outbreak of disease, lack of oxygen etc). The cost of incident based mortality is included in "cost of materials" in the statement of comprehensive income. The fair value element is adjusted through fair value adjustment on incident based mortality, and included in net fair value adjustment in the statement of comprehensive income.

lower than our estimates, this would result in an change in value of EUR -7.5 million.

The quality of the biomass: The quality of the biomass can be difficult to assess prior to harvesting, if the reason for downgrading is related to muscle quality (e.g. the effect of Kudoa in Canada). In Norway downgraded fish is normally priced according to standard rates of deduction compared to a Superior quality fish. In our fair value model for salmon of Norwegian origin, we have used EUR 2.00 as deduction from Superior to Production grade quality. In other countries the price deductions related to quality are not as standardised. Due to the challenging winter sore situation in Norway in the first half, group superior rate was 87% in 2024 (88% in 2023). A one percentage point change from Superior quality to Production grade quality would result in a change in value of EUR -5.7 million.

The size distribution: Fish in sea grow at different rates, and even in a situation with good estimates for the average weight of the fish there can be a considerable spread in the quality and weight of the fish. The size distribution affects the price achieved for the fish, as each size category of fish is priced separately in the market. When estimating the biomass value, a normal size distribution is applied.

Cost: For the estimation of future costs, there is uncertainty with regard to feed prices, other input costs and biological development. Mowi measures cost deviations vs. budget as part of the follow up of business units. Excluding special situations (incidents etc.), the deviations in costs vs budgets are normally limited for a group of sites, although individual sites might show deviations. The estimation of costs influences the biomass value through the recognised fair value adjustment in the statements of comprehensive income and financial position (calculated as fair value less accumulated biological costs).

Note 8 - Impairment testing of intangible assets

At year-end 2024, the market value of the Group's equity was significantly higher than the carrying amount of equity, which is an indication that the market considers the value of the Group's assets to exceed the carrying amount. For all cash generating units (CGUs), the recoverable amount has been determined based on a valuein-use calculation using cash flow projections based on approved budgets for the first year. The four next years are based on the approved long-term plan, followed by a terminal value calculation. The net present value of the cash flow is compared to the carrying amount in the CGU. If the carrying amount is higher than the calculated value in use, an impairment loss is recognised in profit and loss, reducing the asset value to the calculated value in use. The estimated cash flows are based on the assumption of continued operation as part of the Mowi Group.

There has been no changes in the identified CGUs for the year 2024.

Key assumptions

The key assumptions used in the calculation of value in use are harvested volume, EBIT(DA)/margins, capital expenditure, discount rates and the terminal growth rates. Please see the table below for a summary of the key assumptions for each CGU.

Harvest volume

The expected harvest volume is based on the fish currently being held at sea, forward stocking plan and adjusted for the expected future increase in production given today's licenses. This evaluation has been performed CGU by CGU and is updated yearly.

EBIT(DA)/Margins

The key profit target for salmon farming and sales is EBIT per kg, while value-added operations are measured in terms of EBIT/EBITDA in % of sales. EBIT per kg is highly volatile due to fluctuations in the price of salmon. Costs can under normal circumstances be forecast with a relatively high level of accuracy. As Mowi has entered into long-term sales contracts for a proportion of the volume to be harvested in 2025, the margin for 2025 can be forecasted with a higher level of accuracy than the margin for the years beyond (2026-2029). With regards to the terminal, an expected long-term EBIT pr. kg has been used in the Farming entities and an expected EBIT in % of sales has been used for

other operations. In the calculation we have used the EBIT margin from the Long Term Plan per entity, and reduced this to 90%. This principle has been applied in all Farming entities for the terminal value.

Capital expenditure

In the five-year forecast period, the capital expenditure necessary to meet the expected growth in revenue and profit is taken into consideration. Consistent with the Group's plan, the capital expenditure level for 2025 is high to further grow the operations. Beyond 2025, capital expenditures are aligned with growth and replacement plans. Capital expenditure to comply with current laws and regulations has been included. Capital expenditure related to committed and approved efficiency improvement programmes has also been included to support the inclusion of the benefits in the applied margin.

Changes in applicable laws and regulations may affect future estimated capital expenditure needs; this is not reflected in the figures used in the impairment test. Beyond the forecast period, capital expenditure will in general equal depreciation and relate to maintenance investments.

Discount rate

The discount rates are based on the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) methodology. The cost of equity is based on Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM). The cost of debt is based on the riskfree rate in the applicable country. In the model, a ten-year risk-free rate has been used. Calculation of the final discount rates (WACC) also takes into account market risk premium, debt risk premium, gearing and beta value. In the calculations, the Group has applied estimated cash flows before tax and the corresponding discount rates before tax.

Terminal growth rates

Growth after the five-year forecast period has in general been set independently for each cash-generating unit. The assessment includes historical views of inflation rates, growth compared to risk free rate as well as long term government inflation targets. The maximum growth rate applied beyond the forecast period is 2%. This is lower than the expected growth rates in the first five years and lower than the historic growth rate in salmon demand.

Impairment of licenses in CGU Farming Canada

In 2024, an impairment loss of EUR 54.2 million related to specific farming licenses and goodwill in British Columbia, Canada, was recognised. This is based on an updated assessment and the ongoing strategic review of the recent regulatory changes for fish farming in British Columbia, Canada, and the assumptions from the Long Term Plan have been adjusted accordingly. The main changes in the assumptions for Mowi Canada are estimated harvest volumes in the future periods and the corresponding negative effects on the cash flow projections. Following the recognition of the impairment loss, book value of our farming licenses in Canada is EUR 106.0 million, not related to British Columbia. The remaining book value of licenses in Mowi Canada is approximately 8.6% of the license value for the Group.

Sensitivity

With regard to the assessment of recoverable amount, the Group is of the view that no reasonably likely change in any of the above key assumptions would cause the carrying value to materially exceed the recoverable amount for any of the CGUs. With regards to environmental changes, we have performed a sensitivity analysis, and the Group is in the view that likely climate changes will not materially change the outcome of the impairment test. Regarding climate risk, the Group has incorporated expected effects of climate change, inflation, wars, pandemics, nature risk and other external factors in the budget assumptions for 2025 and as part of the budgeting process for the long term plan for 2026-2029. For further information regarding environmental risk, references are made to Note 3B.

With regards to Canada, the imposition of 25% tariffs on goods imported from Canada to the US with effect from 2 April 2025 adds uncertainty. The situation is fluid and it is difficult to see how this will play out, including other countries. Mowi monitors developments and is prepared to redistribute volumes from our seven origins with respect to prevailing trade policies at any given time to best serve our customers.

The significant key assumptions with regards to sensitivity are expected harvest volumes and EBIT(DA)/Margins.

Financing of the Mowi Group is mainly carried out through the parent company Mowi ASA. External financing is obtained by subsidiaries only if this is optimal for the Group. Mowi complied with its loan covenants at the end of 2024.

The following programmes are the main sources of financing for the Mowi Group as of December 31, 2024:

EUR 2 000 million sustainabilitylinked revolving credit facility

In September 2021, Mowi signed a senior secured five-year, EUR 1 800 million multicurrency sustainability-linked revolving credit facility (the "Facility Agreement") with DNB, Nordea, ABN Amro, Rabobank, Danske Bank, SEB and Crédit Agricole. In 2023, an accordion increase option for EUR 200 million was exercised, increasing the total facility size to EUR 2 000 million. The Facility Agreement includes a further accordion increase option, which provides flexibility for the parties to agree to increase the size of the Facility Agreement by an additional EUR 100 million during the remaining term. The principal financial covenant of the Facility Agreement is an equity ratio of minimum 35%, with the calculation of the ratio being adjusted for the effects of IFRS 16. Furthermore, the ability of the Group to take on new debt is regulated by the loan agreement. The facility has final maturity in September 2026.

The facility is available to Mowi ASA and selected subsidiaries. In addition, the revolving credit facility may be allocated in part as bilateral credits (including overdraft facilities and facilities for the issuance of guarantees) between syndicate banks and group companies.

Drawings at year end 2024 on the syndicated credit facility amount to EUR 1 371.9 million, down from 1 615.9 million at year end 2023.

EUR 150 million Schuldschein loan

In May 2019, Mowi entered into a EUR 120 million, seven-year senior unsecured loan in the German Schuldschein market, increased to EUR 150 million in August 2019. The loan consists of two floatingrate tranches of EUR 99 million and EUR 30 million, and a fixed-rate tranche of EUR 21 million, and the sole financial covenant is an equity ratio of minimum 30%. Mowi pays semi-annual interest of sixmonth EURIBOR (floored at 0%) plus 1.70% p.a. on the floating-rate tranches and, through a corresponding interest rate swap, six-month EURIBOR plus 1.705% p.a. on the fixed-rate tranche. All tranches are non-amortising and are repayable in May 2026.

EUR 200 million green bond

In January 2020, Mowi issued an unsecured green bond, with a principal amount of EUR 200 million, a coupon of three-month EURIBOR (floored at 0%) plus 1.60% p.a., payable quarterly, and with the sole financial covenant being an equity ratio of minimum 30%. The green bond was repaid in full at maturity in January 2025. The proceeds from the green bond issue were used to finance or refinance green projects as further defined by Mowi's green finance framework, which received a medium green shading from CICERO Shades of Green in May 2023. The bond is listed on the Euronext Oslo Stock Exchange ESG Bonds section with ISIN: NO 0010874050.

NOK 2 500 million green bond

In May 2024, Mowi issued a green bond with a principal amount of

projects as further defined by Mowi's green finance framework, which received a medium green shading from CICERO Shades of Green in May 2023. The bond is listed on the Euronext Oslo Stock Exchange ESG Bonds section with ISIN: NO 0013220905.

EUR 170 million Arctic Fish sustainabilitylinked credit facilities

In October 2023, Arctic Fish signed a senior secured three-year, EUR 170 million sustainability-linked credit facilities agreement (the "Arctic Fish Facilities Agreement") with Danske Bank, DNB, Nordea and Rabobank. The Arctic Fish Facilities Agreement comprises a EUR 120 million term loan and a EUR 50 million revolving credit facility to finance day-to-day operations and future growth of the company. The term loan will be repayable by quarterly instalments of EUR 3 million beginning in December 2025, and the facilities have final maturity in November 2027 following exercising of a one-year extension option during 2024. The agreement includes a further one-year extension option providing flexibility for the parties to extend the final maturity of the facilities until 2028 by mutual agreement.

Drawings on the aggregated facilities at year end 2024 amount to
EUR 137.5 million, up from EUR 127.5 million in 2023.

NOK 2 500 million. While the bond issue carries a quarterly coupon of three-month NIBOR (floored at 0%) plus 1.13% p.a., Mowi pays quarterly interest of three-month EURIBOR (floored at 0%) plus 1.4715% p.a. through corresponding cross-currency swaps entered into at the time of issue. The green bond is unsecured and is repayable in May 2029 with no interim instalments, and the sole financial covenant is an equity ratio of minimum 30%. Proceeds will be used to finance or refinance green projects as further defined by Mowi's green finance framework, which received a medium green shading from CICERO Shades of Green in May 2023. The bond is listed on the Euronext Oslo Stock Exchange ESG Bonds section with ISIN: NO 0013220897.

NOK 1 000 million green bond

The green bond is unsecured and is repayable in May 2032 with no interim instalments, and the sole financial covenant is an equity ratio of minimum 30%. Proceeds from the green bond issue will be used to finance or refinance green

Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value of financial instruments carried at amortised cost

The Group considers that the carrying amount of financial assets and liabilities recognised at amortised cost in the financial statements approximates their fair value.

Fair value measurements recognised in the statement of financial position

Financial instruments that are measured at fair value subsequent to initial recognition are grouped into a hierarchy of three different levels, based on the degree to which the fair value is observable:

Level 1:

Fair value determined directly by reference to published quotations.

Level 2:

Fair value estimated using valuation technique based on input other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable.

Level 3:

Fair value estimated using a valuation technique based on unobservable data.

Note 13 - Capital management and risk management

Leverage and capital access

Leverage and Capital access (i.e. Capital management) refers to the process of acquiring and utilising capital in the most efficient manner compared to the available alternatives. The primary objective of the Group's capital management is to ensure access to capital contributing to satisfactory operations and maximum generation of shareholder value. The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in underlying economic conditions. Access to borrowed capital is continuously monitored and the Group has a continuous dialogue with its lenders. The syndicated loan facility sets forth an equity ratio as the only financial covenant. The remaining portfolio of interest bearing debt does not include more restrictive financial covenants. Mowi complied with the financial covenants in its loan agreements during and at the end of 2024. Details relating to the main loan programmes in the Group are described in Note 11.

Mowi intends to maintain an equity base suited to the characteristics of its operations, taking into consideration that fish farming is a cyclical business. At year-end 2024, the equity of Mowi amounted to EUR 4 005.6 million. The equity share, defined by equity/total assets, was at the same time 46.8%. Net interest bearing debt, defined as total interest-bearing debt less cash was EUR 1 867.1 million at year-end, above the long-term target of EUR 1 700 million, excluding effects of IFRS 16. The Board of Directors of Mowi ASA

considers the equity in the Group appropriate for the scale of the operation.

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. In 2021 the Board decided to make dividend payments more predicable and transparent by operationalising the dividend policy and introducing ordinary and extraordinary dividends. The dividend policy states that:

  • The 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 interestbearing 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.

The Board of Directors of Mowi ASA has been given proxies from the Annual General Meeting on 30 May 2024 for the following:

  • (1) To approve the distribution of dividends based on the Company's annual accounts for 2024. The authority may be used to approve the distribution of dividends up to an aggregate amount of NOK 7 500 000 000. The authority is valid for dividends from the date of the Annual General Meeting on 30 May 2024 until the AGM in 2025, however no later than June 30, 2025.
  • (2) To purchase up to 51 711 109 shares in the Company (representing 10% of the shares in issue at the time) during the period up until the AGM in 2025, however no later than June 30, 2025.
  • (3a) To increase the Company's share capital by up to 51 711 109 shares (representing 10% of the shares in issue at the time) provided that the the combined number of shares that are issued pursuant to this authorisation and the authorisation in item 3b below shall not in aggregate exceed 10% of the Company's current share capital. The authority did not define the purpose(s) of such a capital increase. The authority expires at the AGM in 2025, however no later than June 30, 2025.
  • (3b) To take up convertible bond loans of up to NOK 3 200 million (par value), convertible to a share capital equivalent of up to 51 711 109 shares provided that the the combined number of shares that are issued pursuant to this authorisation and the authorisation in item 3a above shall not in aggregate exceed 10% of the Company's current share capital. The authority expires at the AGM in 2025, however no later than June 30, 2025.

The Group's principal financial liabilities, other than loans, consist of non-convertible bonds, derivatives and trade payables. These financial liabilities constitute the majority of the Group's third party financing. The Group holds financial assets such as trade receivables, cash and shares.

The Group uses financial derivatives, mainly currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps and financial salmon futures, using large international banks and Euronext as counterparts. The purpose of these derivatives is to manage the interest rate, currency and salmon price risks arising from the operations of the Group. With the exception of financial salmon futures, no trading activities in financial instruments are undertaken. On a selective basis, the Group also enters into other financial derivatives such as equity forward contracts.

Details regarding significant accounting policies for financial assets and liabilities are disclosed in Note 2 Significant accounting policies.

Financial risk management

The Group monitors and manages financial risks arising from operations. These include currency risks, interest rate risk, credit risk and price/liquidity risk.

The Group seeks to manage these risks through operational measures or (where such measures are not available) through the use of financial derivatives.

A policy on the management of these risks has been approved by the Board of Directors. The policy includes principles on currency risk, interest rate risk, price risk, the use of financial instruments and other operational means as well as limits on the maximum and minimum levels of these exposures.

Currency risk

In the Mowi Group, several Business Units carry out a large number of business transactions in currencies different from the domestic currency. For the Group, the relative importance of these transactions is substantially larger on the revenue side than on the cost side. To mitigate the potential fluctuation effects on its cash flows, the Group maintains a foreign exchange strategy designated to manage these exposures both in the short and long term. For each of Mowi's units, the Group has defined a hedging strategy not designated for hedge accounting. According to the hedging strategy, units located in the following regions generate cash flow in currencies (main hedging currencies) according to the below table.

REGION HEDGING CURRENCY
Europe ex. UK EUR
UK GBP
Americas USD
Asia USD

For some units the main hedging currency is different from the functional currency.

Transaction exposures arise from firm commitments made to transact in a currency different from the main currency. Each transaction exposure depends on the duration of the associated commitment, but these are normally be of relatively short duration. Hedging transactions undertaken to manage transaction exposures are referred to as transaction hedges.

Through hedging of transaction exposures, each Business Unit aims to ensure that its net cash flows in currencies other than its main hedging currency are hedged towards this currency. Further exposures arise from structural imbalances between the main currencies on the revenue side and those on the expense side. These imbalances are predominantly a result of production taking place in a different country from that in which the product is sold. Due to their structural nature, such exposures are of a longer duration than transaction exposures and are therefore quantified based on estimates of future revenues and expenses. For these purposes, the focus is on the underlying currency structure of the individual revenue and cost item while the actual currency in which transactions are invoiced is of lesser importance.

The Mowi Group normally has a net positive cash flow exposure towards EUR, GBP, USD and JPY and a net negative cash flow exposure towards NOK, CAD and CLP. To hedge Group cash flows against exchange rate fluctuations Mowi has a policy for longterm hedging of the most predominant net exposures. The Group currently hedges up to 30% of its underlying exposure between EUR/NOK and USD/CAD with a horizon of up to two years.

Credit risk

The Group trades only with recognised, creditworthy third parties. It is the Group's policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis and as a rule the Group's trade receivables are fully credit insured. The Group monitors exposure towards individual customers closely and is not substantially exposed to any individual customer or contractual partner as of December 31, 2024. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of trade receivables, with reference to Note 17. The Group considers the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables as low, as its customers are located in various jurisdictions and operate in different markets.

The Group only enters into derivative transactions with counterparties with an established business relationship to the Group.

Price/liquidity risk

The Group is continuously monitoring liquidity and estimates expected liquidity development on the basis of budgets and monthly updated forecasts from the business units. Mowi's financial position and development depend significantly on spot price developments for salmon, and these prices have historically been volatile. As such Mowi is exposed to movements in supply and demand for salmon. Mowi has to some extent mitigated its exposure to spot prices by entering into bilateral fixed price/volume contracts with its customers. The contract share has normally varied between 20% and 50% of our sold volume, however hedged volumes can increase up to 65% under special circumstances, and the duration of contracts has typically been three to eighteen months. Furthermore Mowi reduces its exposure to spot price movements through value added processing activities and tailoring of products for its customers. Other key liquidity risks are fluctuations in production and harvest volumes, biological issues, and changes in the feed price, feed being the most important individual factor on the cost side. Feed costs are correlated to the marine and agricultural commodity prices of the ingredients.

A portion of the Group's trade payables are included in the Group's supply chain financing agreements and are, thus, with a few finance institutions as counterparties, rather than individual suppliers. This results in the Group being required to settle a certain amount with a single counterparty, rather than less significant amounts with several counterparties. Management does not consider the supply chain finance agreements to result in excessive concentrations of liquidity risk.

Mowi's aim is to maintain a balance between long-term financing and flexibility by using credit facilities, new borrowings and bonds.

As of December 31, 2024 the Group held a portfolio of derivative instruments designed to mitigate transaction and cash flow exposure with a total contract value of EUR 924.7 million (EUR 922.5 million). Instruments equivalent to 95% (93%) of the contract value mature in 2025 and no instrument matures after December 2027. The portfolio had a net market value of EUR 1.0 million (EUR 10.9 million) at year end.

Currency exposure in the statement of financial position

As a consequence of the Group's net cash flows being generated in EUR, GBP and USD, the interest-bearing debt should reflect this currency structure. On December 31, 2024, the portfolio was in line with policy.

The carrying amount of interest-bearing debt has been reduced by EUR 5.7 million (EUR 6.5 million) in transaction costs. There are no significant differences between the carrying amount and the fair value of non-current interest-bearing debt and leasing.

Sensitivity analysis - change in exchange rates impact on result

The main sources of sensitivity to exchange rate movements are long-term EUR/NOK forward currency contracts and loans in NOK, USD and GBP under the multicurrency revolving credit facility. Based on the exposure as of December 31, 2024, the effect of a 15% change in exchange rates on the long-term currency hedges and the multicurrency loan positions has been estimated. As hedge accounting is not used there is no impact on other comprehensive income.

Interest rate risk

Mowi ASA shall over time hedge 0%-35% of the Group's long-term interest bearing debt by currency with fixed interest or interest rate derivatives for the first 5 years, and 0% thereafter. Interest-bearing debt includes external interest-bearing debt and leasing in the parent company or subsidiaries. The interest rate hedges shall be based on the targeted currency composition. Interest rate exposure in other currencies than EUR, USD, GBP and NOK shall not be hedged. All interest rate hedging shall be executed from the parent company. At year end 2024 the Group did not have any interest rate swaps outstanding for interest rate hedging.

Based on the debt and interest rate swaps outstanding as of December 31, 2024 a 0.50% point parallel increase in all relevant yield curves would result in an estimated increase in the Group's annual interest cost of EUR 9.8 million (EUR 10.5 million).

Share option scheme

Mowi Group has a share-price based payment scheme for senior executives, and management and key experts of Business Areas, subsidiaries and group functions:

The Share-Price-Based Payment Scheme comprises annual allocations by the Board of Directors of a number of European call options with a strike price of 107.5% of the share price of Mowi's shares at the date of the annual general meeting authorising allocations under the scheme. The options have a term of four years but will become exercisable immediately if a mandatory bid is made for all of the shares in Mowi or if Mowi is the non-surviving entity in a merger with another company. If the holder of the options exercises the options, the company may settle its obligation through the issue of new shares or, alternatively, by selling treasury shares to the option holder. There will be no lock-up obligation on the shares the option holder receives through the exercise of the option. The exercise of the option is conditional upon the option holder being employed in a non-terminated position in the Group on the date of exercise.

The number of shares and the strike price will be adjusted for dividends and changes in equity capital during the term of the option in accordance with Oslo Stock Exchange derivative rules (A.2.2.8(1)b). Total profit through the exercise of the option in a year is capped at two years' salary for the option holder for the 2021-allotment of options.

For the 2022, 2023 and 2024-allotment, the exercise of 50% of the options awarded to an option holder is conditional on achievement of performance criteria, measured in the development of the share price of the Company's shares compared with those of peers ("Performance-based Options"). The exercise of the remaining 50% of the options awarded to an option holder is not conditional on achievement of such performance criteria ("Ordinary Options"). Total profit through the exercise of Performance-based Options in a year is capped at one year's salary for the option holder, and total profit through the exercise of Ordinary Options in a year is capped at one year's salary for the option holder.

Share purchase programme

In 2024 all permanent employees in Mowi ASA and its Norwegian subsidiaries, as well as permanent employees in Mowi Scotland and Mowi Canada, had the opportunity to acquire shares in the Company. For the year 2024 these provisions entitled this group of employees to receive a taxable benefit of NOK 6 000 in connection with their participation in such a scheme. All employees were offered funding of the purchase price through an interest-free advance on salary from Mowi.

No other loans or guaranties have been granted to key management personnel.

Pension plans

Pension plans in the Group are mainly defined contribution plans. There are a few defined benefits plans, which are considered to be immaterial for the Group's financial statements.

If the profit exceeds these limits, the number of shares to be issued will be reduced accordingly. Following the 2024 annual general meeting (the "AGM"), the Board of Directors allocated 1 710 000 options with a strike price corresponding to 107.5% of the volumeweighted average share price on the OSE on the day of the AGM (NOK 201.61) to a total of 39 individuals.

Eligibility to the senior executive share option scheme is limited to: Group CEO, other Senior Executives and management and key experts of Business Areas, subsidiaries and group functions, based on the following criteria:

  • the position and individual is important in realising the Mowi Group ambitions;
  • the individual is considered critical for the Business Unit(s);
  • the individual is expected to continue in a role covered by the scheme;
  • the individual will not retire during the first year of the scheme

The subsequent appeal was rejected. Whilst there is uncertainty as to potential impact arising from the ruling on the Mowi Scotland obligation per year-end 2024, based on the available information on amendments in the scheme, no provision has been made.

The expectations are based on current earnings and approved budgets. Deferred tax assets related to tax losses carried forward at a total of EUR 103.2 million have not been recognised due to uncertain utilisation.

Deferred tax assets linked to tax losses are offset against deferred tax liabilities in the tax jurisdictions, where acceptable.

OECD Pillar Two model rules

Mowi is within the scope of the OECD Pillar Two model rules. From 1 January 2024 the Pillar Two legislation became effective in Norway, the jurisdiction in which Mowi is incorporated.

Under the legislation, the group is liable to pay a top-up tax for the difference between its effective tax rate per jurisdiction and a 15% minimum rate (calculated according to Pillar Two model rules).

Based on a preliminary assessment, Mowi have identified that the potential tax exposure, if any, for the entities that might be subject to the top-up tax, is immaterial and no Pillar Two income taxes have been recognised.

Note 27 - Contingent liabilities and provisions

Update on the allegations of price collusion

On 25 January 2024, Mowi received a Statement of Objections from the European Commission as a result of the Commission's inspections in February 2019 of several Norwegian producers of farmed Atlantic salmon, including Mowi. The Statement of Objections is not a final decision, but rather the Commission's preliminary view that the companies under investigation may have breached the EU competition rules.

Mowi contests the Commission's preliminary view and the characteristics of the alleged behaviour in the market for farmed Norwegian Atlantic salmon, and strongly believes there has been no infringement of the competition rules. Issuing a Statement of Objections and opening a formal procedure does not in any way prejudge the outcome. The Commission will first after the parties

2 8 3

have exercised their rights of defence conclude on whether the alleged behaviour amounts to a violation of the EU competition rules.

A hearing in the matter was held in September 2024. The commission is now going through the information and documentation received and is expected to request more information from Mowi if found necessary. The commission will work forward until they have a final conclusion/adopt a decision. A conclusion is expected in 2025.

Furthermore, Mowi has been named a defendant in civil law proceedings by a group of claimants in the UK, including Scotland. Mowi disputes the allegations, which suggest a breach of applicable competition law on Mowi's part. The civil law claims clearly lack merit and are entirely unsubstantiated.

Decommissioning cost

Mowi has Farming operations in 7 countries. In all countries the useful life of our licences is considered indefinite (ref. note 2). Mowi has an obligation to decommission and remove all equipment when the use of a site/license comes to an end. In accordance with IAS 37.14 a provision shall be recognised when an entity has a present obligation as a result of a past event, such as setting up a site. However, due to the nature of our business and the assessed useful life of our licenses, such an obligation does not exist in the foreseeable future. In order to calculate a present value of decommissioning costs, a life span of at least 50 years should be applied in the calculation (although licenses have indefinite useful life) due to our plan of continued operations on the sites. Mowi considers a present value of such a cost of 50 years and beyond cannot be reliably measured. This is because the settlement dates are indeterminate; and other estimates, such as very long-term discount rates for which there is no observable measure, cannot be reliably determined. Consequently, the decommissioning obligation that exists cannot be reliably quantified and is disclosed as a contingent liability. There remains a high degree of uncertainty concerning such obligations. If and when there is a known change in our planned operations an updated assessment of any provision

will be made for the related sites and decommissioning cost. Even though the licenses are indefinite there will be the need to change the equipment on our locations from time to time. The expected life span on our equipment is long (app. 20 years) with appropriate maintenance performed. The cost related to changing equipment is limited. All costs related to running maintenance is expensed and investment in any new equipment including removal/moving to site is accounted as addition to PPE.

Based on the above, no provisions related to decommissioning or rehabilitation cost is recognised in the financial statement.

Other cases

We are routinely involved in various legal matters arising from the course of our business.

While the outcome of these proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that, when resolved, they will not have any material adverse effect on our results, financial position or liquidity.

Please refer to note 30 for an overview of the financial impact of provisions recognised in the financial statements.

Note 33 - New IFRS standards

New standards applied

No new standards have been applied in 2024 with significant impact on the financial statements.

New standards - not yet implemented

At the end of 2024, there are some amendments to existing standards/interpretations that are not yet effective but will be relevant for Mowi Group at implementation. Mowi Group intends to adopt these standards, if applicable, when they become effective. The new and amended standards and interpretations that are expected to have a significant impact on the Group's financial statements are listed below.

IFRS 18 Presentation and disclosure in financial statements

IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements replaces existing IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS 18 have new requirements for presentation within the statement of profit or loss, including specified totals and subtotals, and introduces required classification into the categories operating, investing, financing, income taxes, and discontinued operations. The group is currently assessing the impacts the amendments will have on the presentation of the financial statements and notes.

The standard is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027 and will apply retrospectively. At this stage, the group does not intend to adopt the standard before its effective date.

Note 34 - Subsequent events

This will increase Mowi's ownership in Nova Sea from 49% to 95%, and Mowi will make a voluntary offer for the remaining 5%.

Statement of Changes in Equity Statement of Cash Flow

Note 1 - General information and accounting policies

Mowi ASA is the parent company in the Mowi Group and consists of corporate management, freshwater farming and farming related services in Norway.

The separate financial statements of Mowi ASA have been prepared in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act from 1988 and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in Norway. The financial statements for Mowi Group have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) as adopted by the EU (EU-IFRS).

For accounting policies used, reference is made to Note 2 in Mowi Group financial statements. The accounting principles used in the financial statements for Mowi ASA are similar to the accounting principles used for Mowi Group's financial statements, except for:

  • Acquisition costs in Business Combinations are in the Group financial statements recognised as expenses in profit and loss in the periods in which the cost are incurred and the services are received. In the separate financial statements for Mowi ASA these expenses are included as part of the acquisition price.
  • Biological assets are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Acquisition cost are direct costs and a

proportional part of indirect variable and fixed costs. Proportion of fixed costs is limited to utilisation of normal capacity.

Finance leases that transfer substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item to the entity, are capitalised at the commencement of the lease at the fair value of the leased asset, or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and a reduction of the lease liability. A leased asset is depreciated over the useful life of the asset. Operational lease payments are recognised as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Investment in subsidiaries and intercompany loans are measured to the lowest of fair value and cost. Financial derivatives within Mowi Group are measured to fair value. The statements of profit and loss and changes in equity in the separate financial statement divert from the statements for Mowi Group as other comprehensive income still is treated as equity transactions in the separate financial statements.

Other income consists mainly of management fee charged to the Business Units, in addition to income from sale of smolt, roe, byproducts and slaughter services.

Mowi ASA is responsible for external financing of the Mowi Group.

Note 2 - Business segments

The main source of revenue for Mowi ASA comes from farming- and processing services to other group companies. In 2024 the revenue from sale of these services is EUR 1 849.7 million. Last year the revenue from these services was EUR 1 878.5 million.

Note 16 - Financial instruments

Foreign exchange risk

At the end of 2024 Mowi ASA had a portfolio of currency hedging instruments against third party counterparts with a total contract value of EUR 924.7 million (EUR 922.5 million). The portfolio had a net positive market value of EUR 1.0 million (EUR 10.9 million). The portfolio is described in further detail in Note 13 to Mowi Group financial statements.

The subsidiaries are required to do all their currency hedging with Mowi ASA as their counterparty. In addition to the portfolio of external derivatives, Mowi ASA also holds a portfolio of foreign exchange hedges with its subsidiaries as counterparty. This portfolio offsets the external portfolio with respect to amounts, maturities and market values.

The forward contracts are recognised at fair value in the statement of financial position.

Interest rate risk

Mowi ASA hedges all interest rate risk on behalf of Mowi Group. For positions held in interest rate derivatives and their value, reference is made to Note 12 and Note 13 of Mowi Group financial statements.

Salmon price risk

At the end of 2024, Mowi ASA held a portfolio of financial forward contracts for purchase and sale of salmon with third parties. The portfolio had a negative market value of EUR 0.02 million (positive EUR 3.7 million). Subsidiaries are required to do their financial hedging of salmon prices with Mowi ASA as their counterparty, and Mowi ASA then enters into corresponding forward contracts with third parties. Therefore the portfolio of third-party forward contracts is largely offset with respect to amounts, maturities and market values, by the portfolio of internal contracts.

Valuation of biological assets

Basis for the key audit matter The biological assets are valued at fair value less cost to sell in accordance with IAS 41 and IFRS 13. At December 31, 2024 biological assets amounted to EUR 2 309.6million, which is 27% of the Group's total assets. The fair value adjustment included in the carrying amount was EUR 539.6 million.

The estimation of fair value less cost to sell of biological assets is complex and requires significant judgment from management. For fish not ready for harvest (immature fish) the fair value less cost to sell was calculated using a model based on a net present value methodology. The calculation was based on assumptions of biomass volume, quality, market prices, remaining expenses and time in sea until the fish is ready for harvest.

Given the significant amount of biological assets and the degree of judgement involved in the estimation, we consider valuation of biological assets to be a key audit matter.

Our audit response

We evaluated the accounting principles, industry practice and assessed the model used for the fair value estimate. We compared the estimated future market prices applied for the period when harvesting is expected with observable available market prices, achieved prices or recently agreed contract prices.

We evaluated the estimated remaining expenses to produce the harvest mature fish, including assumptions applied such as harvesting plans, estimated growth rate and estimates for mortality and quality. Furthermore, we analyzed and evaluated the historical accuracy of prior periods' forecasts and we and tested the mathematical accuracy of the model. We also performed a sensitivity analysis of the critical assumptions in the model.

We refer to note 2, 3a and 6 to the consolidated financial statements.

Other information

The Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer (management) are responsible for the information in the Board of Directors' report and the other information presented with the financial statements. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the information in the Board of Directors' report and the other information presented with the financial statements.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the information in the Board of Directors' report and for the other information presented with the financial statements. The purpose is to consider if there is material inconsistency between the information in the Board of Directors' report and the other information presented with the financial statements and the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise the information in the Board of Directors' report and for the other information presented with the financial statements otherwise appears to be materially misstated. We are required to report that fact if there is a material misstatement in the Board of Directors' report and the other information presented with the financial statements. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Based on our knowledge obtained in the audit, it is our opinion that the Board of Directors' report

  • is consistent with the financial statements and
    • contains the information required by applicable statutory requirements.

Our statement on the Board of Directors' report applies correspondingly for the statement on Corporate Governance.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements for 2024. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Impairment assessment of goodwill and licenses

Basis for the key audit matter

At December 31, 2024, the carrying amount of the group's goodwill and licenses amounted to EUR 369.6 million and EUR 1 233.9 million. An impairment of EUR 54.2 million relating to British Columbia, Canada was recognized in 2024.

The goodwill and licenses with indefinite life are tested for impairment on at least annual basis. Management prepared an impairment assessment based on a value in use calculation using cash flows from approved budget and long-term plan for 2025 to 2029, followed by a terminal value calculation. These cash flows are based on key assumptions such as expected harvest volume, margins, capital expenditure from approved budget and long-term plan, discount rates and the growth rates in the terminal value. If subsequent changes from the approved plan the assumptions used are updated accordingly.

The estimates require considerable insight and judgement from management and uncertainty will exist with respect to harvesting volumes and regulatory impact for the fish farming industry. The impairment assessment was a key audit matter due to significant judgments involved in the estimates used in the budgeted and forecasted

cash flows.

Our audit response We evaluated the value in use model, management's estimates relating to the future cash flows, and management's sensitivity analysis. We compared assumptions with available external information, such as expected market conditions for licenses and the market development. We also performed analysis and evaluation of historical accuracy of prior year's budget. We further inquired and had discussion with both group and local management. We tested the mathematical accuracy of the value in use calculation in the model. We involved an internal valuation specialist in the evaluation of the methodology, growth rate and the discount rate applied in the value in use model. We refer to note 2, 3a, 8 and 9 to the consolidated financial statements.

Independent auditor's report - Mowi ASA 2024

Our statement that the Board of Directors' report contains the information required by applicable law does not cover the sustainability report, for which a separate assurance report is issued.

Responsibilities of management for the financial statements

Management is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements of the Company that give a true and fair view in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act and accounting standards and practices generally accepted in Norway, and for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements of the Group that give a true and fair view in accordance with simplified application of international accounting standards according to section 3-9 of the Norwegian Accounting Act. Management is responsible for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's and the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or the Group, or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.

Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's and the Group's internal control.
  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
  • Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's and the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company and the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

Farm-raised Atlantic salmon – a healthy source of protein

We engage in aquaculture, which involves cultivating aquatic organisms under controlled conditions. Aquaculture is a fastgrowing food producing sector. Around 70% of our planet is covered with water, yet the United Nations Food and Agriculture organisation (FAO) estimates that only approximately 2% of the world's food supply comes from the ocean. In 2024, the aquaculture industry contributed 57% of the fish destined for human consumption and is expected to continue to increase long term. The aquaculture industry's output has soared since the mid-1990s, while the wild fish harvest in the same period has been stable.

It is estimated that the global population will grow from 8 billion to almost 9.7 billion by 2050, resulting in increased demand for protein-rich food. According to the FAO, at least an additional 50 million tonnes of aquatic food will be required by 2050.

Our main product is farm-raised Atlantic salmon. Consumption of Atlantic salmon is recognised as healthy because of its high content of protein, Omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins and minerals. Atlantic salmon farming started on an experimental level in the 1960s, and became an industry in Norway in the 1980s. Salmon farming consists of raising juvenile salmon, or smolt, to fully grown salmon in large pens located in the sea, fjords and bays. Salmon farming also includes raising smolt from salmon eggs, which takes place in freshwater, typically in lakes or tanks on land. Almost all commercially available Atlantic salmon is farmed. Due to biological constraints, seawater temperature requirements and other natural limitations, farm-raised salmon is produced in Norway, Chile, Scotland, North America, Faroe Islands, Ireland, Iceland and New Zealand/Tasmania.

Atlantic salmon is a small but growing part of the global protein supply. Despite an increase in production of Atlantic salmon of more than 100% since 1990 (CAGR 8%), the total global supply of salmon is still marginal compared to most other major seafood categories. This is because the sector has reached a production level where biological boundaries are being pushed.

Future growth requires the implementation of measures to reduce the industry's biological footprint. This will necessitate progress in technology, non-pharmaceutical techniques, industry regulations and intercompany cooperation.

Our approach – an integrated protein provider

We are the world's largest producer of farm-raised salmon, both by volume and revenue, offering fresh, whole salmon, processed salmon and other processed seafood products to customers in 70 countries worldwide. We currently engage in three principal types of production activities:

  • salmon feed production in Norway and Scotland;
  • salmon farming and primary processing of salmon in Norway, Scotland, Canada, Chile, Ireland, the Faroe Islands and Iceland; and
  • secondary processing of seafood in Norway, Chile, Ireland, the United States, Scotland, Canada, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Poland, Germany, Spain, Turkey, Japan, Vietnam, Taiwan, China and South Korea.

We continue our journey from a production-driven fish farming company selling a commodity to developing our integrated value chain, broadening our value added processing activities and building the world's largest global salmon brand.

Mowi Feed operates two state-of-the-art feed mills in Norway and Scotland which supplied 96% of Mowi's European feed consumption in 2024. Our feed performs very well, an essential quality as feed is the most important input factor in salmon production. Our feed plant at Valsneset, Norway, supplied almost all of our Norwegian fish feed requirements in 2024 and produced 399 568 tonnes of fish feed, close to full capacity of 460 000 tonnes (including an ongoing 60 000 tonnes expansion expected to be completed in Q2 2026). The Scottish feed plant at Kyleakin on the Island of Skye, Scotland produced 182 493 (123 213) tonnes of feed (capacity of 240 000 tonnes). In March 2025, Mowi initiated a strategic review of the Feed division. The review will assess all available options, including a sale.

Our fish farming operations cover the entire salmon life cycle from egg to harvest. We also have facilities for harvesting and primary processing of our fish. We have our own breeding and genetics department and our strategy is to produce our own eggs to secure the selection of the best genetic properties. We hold our own brood stock and invest significant efforts and resources to improve the performance, disease resistance, quality and welfare of the fish. Juvenile fish (smolt) are transferred to the sea at different weights depending on the requirements of the sites to be stocked and our

Analytical information

smolt production capacity. The average weight of smolt put to sea in 2024 was 199 grams, up from 178 in 2023. The fish are then nurtured in the sea for a period of 10-22 months depending on the size of the smolt stocked, the temperature of the seawater, our farming practices and the biological situation. At harvest weight, approximately five to six kilogram live weight equivalent, or LWE, the salmon undergoes primary processing into gutted weight equivalent (GWT) which is the main commodity marketed and used in most reference prices. The customers of our primary processed salmon are retailers, secondary processors, including our own operations, and distributors.

Our secondary processing operations turn the gutted fish into products such as fillets, steaks and other portions of fish - smoked, fresh and frozen. This division consists of all our downstream activities, including our steadily growing production of consumerready products.

We currently operate 21 secondary processing facilities, the largest of which are located in Ustka, Poland; Bruges, Belgium; Rosyth, Scotland; and Boulogne, France. Secondary processing activities include further preparation to create ready-to-heat or ready-to-eat products and packaging the products. Purchasers of secondary processed salmon include retailers, such as grocery stores, food service providers such as hotels and other service and catering entities, as well as industry customers including meal and salad producers.

Business areas and segments

We are organised into three Business Areas: Feed, Farming and Sales & Marketing.

1. Fish feed production, comprises our two feed plants in Norway and Scotland.

2. Farming comprises a single operating segment composed of our farming operations in Norway, Scotland, Canada, Chile, Ireland, the Faroe Islands and Iceland, and our Breeding & Genetics programme. This segment also includes primary processing activities and some filleting activities (a secondary processing activity).

3. Sales & Marketing is composed of two operating segments:

Markets: the segment comprises activities relating to sales of our primary processed products obtained from the Farming business and, to a lesser extent, purchased from third parties. It also includes logistics and delivery of our products to

third-party customers, as well as to our internal secondary processing operations (including Consumer Products) and some secondary processing activities; and

Consumer Products: the segment includes our main secondary processing and value added operations, as well as endproduct sales, including logistics.Branding is also part of the Sales & Marketing segment. Research & development supports all Business's segments.

In addition to our principal operating segments, we have a group of "Other" activities, consisting of corporate functions.

Value creation measured by country of origin

Our Farming business is engaged in the production, harvesting and primary (and some secondary) processing of fish. The Markets segment sells the salmon to (i) third parties or (ii) Consumer Products for further processing. The Consumer Products division secondary processes salmon purchased from Markets, together with salmon and other seafood purchased from third parties, and sells these products to third parties. All transactions are conducted at arms' length principle.

We assess the overall value creation of our operations based on the salmon's source of origin, using Operational EBIT per kg of fish harvested as a key measure of performance. For this reason Operational EBIT related to our Feed and Sales & Marketing operations is allocated back to the country of origin.

The relationship between our functional segments and our operational reporting per country of origin is illustrated on the following page.

Our most important value drivers

Key factors affecting revenue

Our primary source of revenue is the sale of primary and secondary processed seafood (including value added products), mainly salmon. Revenue generated by our products is derived from volumes sold and the price that we achieve for our products. Our products are shipped long distances by road, air and water. Our revenues therefore include a substantial freight element, since the freight cost generally is paid by customers.

Sales of salmon and salmon-derived products represented 94.7% and 94.2% of our revenue for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Fresh whole salmon (i.e. primary processed salmon) represented 50.7% of our total revenues in 2024, compared to 50.2% in 2023. In the same periods, elaborated salmon, including smoked/marinated, MAP, sushi and other prepared and value-added products accounted for 49.3% (49.8%) of our revenues. We sell salmon and other seafood directly to retailers, hotels, restaurants as well as to third-party processors and distributors in approximately 70 countries.

Volume

Primary processed products (harvested volume) Harvested volume primarily depends on the quantities of smolt introduced into our operations, which are determined by us (one to two) years prior to harvesting, fish growth rates and our harvesting schedule.

The quantities of smolt introduced into our operations are based on our expectations for the demand for finished product at harvest time, anticipated product prices and our organic growth ambitions in light of regulatory constraints (e.g. maximum standing biomass in production established by our farming licenses).

Fish growth rates are affected by water temperature, disease and other biological issues. As salmon is a cold-blooded animal, seawater temperature plays an important role for its growth rate. With high seawater temperatures, disease risk increases, while temperatures below freezing cause mass mortality. Similarly, biological factors, disease, sea lice and stress of fish each negatively impact the rate of growth of our fish and may result in reduced fish survival.

Volumes in a period are also affected by our harvest schedule, i.e. when we decide to harvest fish from a particular location. Our harvest window is effectively limited by fish age, as fish must be harvested prior to maturation. Nevertheless, we do have a limited ability to accelerate or delay harvest (typically, by a matter of weeks) to optimise price achievement.

Secondary processed products

The majority of our secondary processing occurs in our Consumer Products segment in Europe, Asia and the Americas, Some filleting activities are also carried out by our Farming operations. The volume of secondary processed salmon, including value added products that we produce depends on market demand for our secondary processed seafood and the production capacities of our operations.

The majority of the fish used in our secondary processing business in Consumer Products was produced by our fish farms. We have a constant supply of raw materials used in production and can vary our volume of secondary processed seafood based on projected customer demand. In addition to sales of salmon-based products, which represents the clear majority of sales to third-party customers in Consumer Products, we also sell products based on other fish species, such as cod, pangasius, saithe, Alaska pollock, sockeye and haddock.

Prices

The price received for our products is determined by the relevant market prices. Our achieved prices may deviate from market prices due to differences in the quality of our product, sales contracts, which typically fix the sales price for a period of three to 12 months, but sometimes longer, and our ability to place our products efficiently in the market. We aim to sell our products at or above market prices, and we measure our ability to do so through price achievement, which measures the prices at which we sell our products against the relevant salmon price index or reference price.

We have been actively pursuing strategies to reduce our dependence on market prices for salmon by increasing our capacity to produce more value-added products, which are generally associated with more stable consumer prices.

Reference prices for salmon

Several price indices for salmon are publicly available. The two most important indices for Norwegian salmon are Sitagri Salmon Index, provided by FinanceAgri and appointed by Euronext Group, and the official statistics of Norway by Statistics Norway, or SSB, a Norwegian governmental entity. As of 13 August 2024 Fish Pool ASA replaced Nasdaq Salmon Index with the Sitagri Salmon Spot Index, SISALMONI, as a component to calculate the Fish Pool Index. Urner Barry in the United States provides a reference price for Chilean salmon in Miami and North American salmon in Seattle. Price correlation across regional markets is generally strong for Atlantic salmon, but we have recently seen a tendency of reduced correlation between prices in America and Europe.

Historically, reference prices for salmon have been subject to significant fluctuations, as demand for salmon has been growing steadily, whereas supply has fluctuated strongly due to variations in factors such as smolt release and biological status, including disease.

Although the market price of salmon is established through supply and demand for the product, in the short term, salmon producers are expected to be price takers. The long production cycle and a short time window available for harvesting leave salmon farmers with limited flexibility to manage their short-term supply. In addition, salmon is generally sold as a fresh commodity with a limited product lifespan, further restricting producers' ability to control short-term supply.

As our Irish operation produces mainly organic salmon, there is no reference price available for benchmarking our salmon of Irish origin. Salmon from our Irish operations is sold mainly on contracts.

Prices for the products produced by Consumer Products are primarily driven by customer demand and the cost of the raw materials used in their production. Because secondary processed/ elaborated products, including value added products, are to some extent considered to be premium products, demand fluctuates with the state of regional and global economies and the consumers' general wealth. In addition, global trends in consumer tastes affect demand for such products. The cost of raw materials is largely dependent on reference prices, especially Atlantic salmon prices, most of which we supply internally from our Farming operations. In 2024 average raw material prices decreased in line with decreased salmon prices.

Fish feed

Fish feed is our largest expense category, and it accounted for approximately 45% of our "cost in box" per kg in 2024.

In addition to own production of feed, we procure our fish feed from a limited number of suppliers globally. Our arrangements with the suppliers generally provide that we acquire the fish feed at prices tied to the market prices for the raw materials used in producing the feed, such as fish meal, fish oil, vegetable oils and meals. The arrangements are subject to a minimum fee per kg of fish feed, structured to cover the suppliers' operational costs and margins. Our arrangements generally do not contain minimum or maximum fish feed purchase quantities. The feed cost accumulate over multiple periods (i.e., the entire life of the fish) and is recognised in the period when our fish is harvested and sold.

The yield generated from our fish feed is affected by the feed conversion rates, which is the number of kg of fish feed needed to increase a fish's bodyweight by one kg. Our feed conversion rate is typically between 1.1 and 1.2 kg of feed per kg of fish produced.

Other seawater costs in Farming

Other seawater costs in Farming represent costs associated with smolt purchases, employee salaries, insurance, medication and other direct and indirect costs attributable to fish production at sea. These costs accumulate over multiple periods (i.e., the entire life of the fish) and are recognised in the period when our fish is harvested and sold.

Non-seawater costs in Farming

In Farming, non-seawater costs represent the cost of bringing the fish from seawater sites to primary processing facilities, primary processing costs, administration costs, exceptional mortality costs and other relevant costs for the fish harvested in the period. Nonseawater costs are generally incurred and expensed in the same period. As the majority of these costs are fixed, this category is subject to substantial scale effects based on the volumes of salmon harvested.

Biological factors

Biological factors, such as fish mortality, fish diseases and sea lice affect our harvest volumes and therefore our revenue, but also our costs. We may be required to expend resources to mitigate the effects of the foregoing factors (e.g. costs of vaccines) and the cost per kg harvested increases if fish die or growth is impaired.

Fish survival

Raised in nature at sea, farm-raised salmon are naturally exposed to various infectious and non-infectious diseases. An outbreak of a disease represents a cost for us through direct loss of fish. In addition, disease can result in lost growth of fish, accelerated harvesting and reduced quality of harvested fish, which would affect our revenues. In some cases, a disease outbreak may be followed by a subsequent period of reduced production resulting in lower revenues and increased cost per kg fish harvested. Fish survival rates are affected by a number of factors, including infectious and non-infectious diseases, predators attacks, environmental conditions and fish handling. We expense incident-based mortality in the period when incidents occur. The cost associated with normal mortality is included in the value of the remaining inventory, contributing to the increased cost of the fish when harvested and sold.

Sea lice management

Sea lice, of which there are several species, are naturally occurring seawater parasites. They graze on the salmon's skin and, if not controlled, they can cause lesions, secondary infections and mortality. Sea lice can be controlled through good husbandry and management practices, cleaner fish (wrasse and lumpsuckers that eat sea lice off the salmon's skin), freshwater baths, other nonmedicinal tools (e.g. skirts around pens), thermolicers, hydrolicers, FLS flushers and the use of pharmaceutical products. Effective sea lice management is important for fish welfare and ensuring lice on our farms do not negatively impact wild salmonid stocks. At present sea lice represent a significant cost to the industry.

Quality

The quality of our fish may greatly affect the price we are able to achieve in comparison to the reference price. Diseases, sea lice, biological issues and stress may all impact the quality of our fish, resulting in downgrading and lower achieved prices. In addition, when salmon reach reproductive maturity, or maturation, the flesh colour and meat quality changes, resulting in lower product quality.

Fish may be classified as superior, ordinary or production quality. Superior quality fish is a product without damage or defect that provides a positive overall impression. Ordinary quality fish is a product with limited external or internal faults, damage or defects. Production quality fish is a product that does not satisfy the requirements of either superior or ordinary quality due to product faults, damage or defects.

For fish classified as production grade, which is not allowed to export out of Norway without being processed, the typical rate of reduction is very sensitive to the amount of volume, and due to this varies significantly during the year.

Contracts and derivative Instruments

To limit our exposure to short- and medium-term fluctuations in salmon prices, we enter into sales contracts for future deliveries of our products. Our sales contracts generally have a duration of three to 12 months, but sometimes longer. Our target is to optimise the contract portfolio to attain the best possible mix of contracts and spot sales, with an average contract coverage ratio typically between 20% and 50%.

Contracts mitigate our exposure to fluctuations in salmon prices, but can also result in us selling our products at prices that are lower than reference price.

We also utilise salmon derivatives to hedge our exposure to fluctuations in reference prices. Salmon derivatives provide the same hedge against exposure to spot price fluctuations as contracts for future sales of salmon to customers, so we use hedging instruments as well as contracts to achieve our contract coverage goals described above.

Price achievement

The average price achievement measures the prices that we are able to achieve on our products against a salmon price index. The achievement is measured against Nasdaq for salmon of Norwegian, Scottish and Faroese origin, and Urner Barry for salmon of Canadian and Chilean origin.

The average price achievement measure demonstrates our ability to sell our products at above market rates and is thus an important measure of our success. Price achievement is primarily affected by contract coverage, fish quality and our ability to place our products efficiently in the market.

Key factors affecting costs

Our costs are primarily affected by the cost of our fish feed, other purchases (including third-party raw material sourcing), salaries, other operational costs and biological factors. We use these cost categories to track our costs at consolidated level.

Costs in our Farming segment are categorised into feed costs, other seawater cost and non-seawater costs and we track these costs per kg of fish harvested, where:

  • fish feed costs measure the cost of fish feed;
  • other seawater costs measure costs relating to smolt, salaries, insurance, medication and other direct and indirect costs attributable to fish production at sea; and
  • non-seawater costs are the cost of bringing the fish from the seawater site to the primary processing facility, primary processing costs, administration costs, exceptional mortality costs and other non-seawater costs incurred by the respective farming operations.

These costs (fish feed, other seawater costs and non-seawater costs) represent the total cost for one kg gutted salmon packed in a standard box for shipping ("cost in box", also referred to as full cost and cost per kg Farming). The term "cost in box" is widely used by the industry and analyst community as an indicator of operational efficiency in fish farming operations. These costs are included in the following line items in our consolidated statement of operations: cost of materials, salary and personnel expenses, other operating expenses and depreciation. The total of feed cost and other seawater costs is the cost of harvested fish in seawater, before transportation to the processing plant. We refer to these costs as biomass costs or biological costs.

Costs in our Feed operations are primarily composed of raw material costs (e.g. fish meal, fish oil, vegetable meals and oils) and costs associated with running feed operations, such as salaries and utilities.

Costs in our Sales & Marketing Business Area are primarily composed of raw material costs (e.g. primary processed salmon), which we to a large extent produce internally for our Consumer Products operations, and costs associated with running secondary processing operations, such as salaries and utilities. We measure our secondary processing operational efficiency through yield and throughput. Yield measures the number of kilograms (kg) of end product we are able to produce from one kg of raw materials. Throughput measures our secondary processing cost per kg produced.

As it takes two to three years to bring a salmon to harvest size, fish feed prices and prices for other costs associated with the farming of fish accumulate over multiple periods (i.e., the entire life of the fish), and affect the cost of materials recognised in the period when our fish is harvested and sold. Costs associated with secondary processing are expensed in the period in which the product is sold, unless goods are produced for stock to be sold in a later period.

The table below shows the estimated effect on our Operational EBIT of a change in market price, harvest volume and cost of fish feed.

Due to biological constraints, seawater temperature requirements and other natural limitations, farm-raised salmon is mainly produced in Norway, Chile, Scotland, North America, Faroe Island, Iceland, Ireland and New Zealand/Tasmania. Norway and Chile are the predominant salmon producing countries.

The aquaculture industry has shown steady growth since 2000

Global suppliers of Atlantic salmon in 2024 in GWT

Development in supply of Atlantic salmon in GWT

Development in reference price

2024 marked a year with lower global commodity prices as rising cost of living in an inflationary environment took its toll on consumer demand in many end markets. The salmon market was not insulated from these effects, however, demand fundamentals for salmon fared quite well in this context all the same. The reference price for salmon of Norwegian origin decreased by 4.6% in the market currency compared to 2023. The average price increased in Miami by 3.4% for the year, whilst the prices in Seattle and Boston/New York decreased by 5.5% and 6.1% respectively.

Development in "cost in box" per kg

In the group's reporting currency, EUR, our cost per kg in Farming has increased during the last years from post-Covid inflation and higher feed prices. However, in 2024 cost in box increased by only 3% from EUR 5.63/kg in 2023 to EUR 5.80/kg in 2024 on previous feed inflation. Other cost items were stable, as the inflationary pressure was oset by operational improvements, various cost measures and positive scale eects from higher volumes.

Farmed-raised Atlantic salmon analysis

We aim to be open and transparent in our communications with the market in order to develop and retain investor confidence, and to deliver an attractive return to our shareholders.

As of December 31, 2024 Mowi ASA had 6 285 396 ADR's outstanding, representing 1.2% of total shares outstanding. In terms of total volume traded of Mowi shares in Norway and in the US, the ADR's represented 3.4% of volumes in 2024.

Payment of dividends

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. In 2020 the Board decided to make dividend payments more predicable and transparent by operationalising the dividend policy and introducing ordinary and extraordinary dividends. The dividend policy states that:

  • The 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.

Dividend declared and paid in 2024 was NOK 6.60 (7.20) per share as normal dividend. See charts at the end this section displaying dividend paid per share and total dividend paid for the last ten years.

Share and shareholder information

The history of our shares

Mowi AS was founded in Norway in 1964, changing names and owners several times before being acquired by Pan Fish ASA in 2006. Pan Fish AS was founded in 1992 and listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange in 1997. Pan Fish also acquired Fjord Seafood ASA in 2006, a company founded in 1996 as Torgnes Invest AS and listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange in 2000. Pan Fish ASA changed its name to Marine Harvest ASA in 2007 and Marine Harvest AS changed name to Mowi ASA in 2018.

Mowi ASA's shares are listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange under the ticker MOWI. On January 28, 2014 Mowi ASA listed and commenced trading of its American Depositary Shares (ADS), each representing one ordinary share, represented by American Depositary Receipts (ADR) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). On February 14, 2017, the Board of Directors resolved to delist the Mowi`s ADS and to terminate the registration of the ADSs due to the low trading volume and the significant cost of maintaining the listing and registration. We maintain the ADR programme as a Sponsored Level I programme and the ADSs are tradable over-the-counter.

Key figures

Enterprise Value ("EV") to capital employed indicates how the market values Mowi compared to the capital that has been invested in our assets. The value of a large portion of our assets (i.e. the majority of the our licenses and buildings) were assigned in 2006/2007. Since then these assets have multiplied in value, but as they are not subject to fair value adjustment, the recognised values have remained relatively unchanged. This explains the increasing difference between EV and capital employed. In the last 10-year the ratio has been relatively more stable.

EV to EBIT or Operational EBIT measures the market valuation of Mowi compared to the past year's result. As EBIT includes the change in fair value of biological assets, market participants prefer using EV/Operational EBIT as valuation metric. The same analogy applies to the reported earnings versus underlying earnings. Underlying earnings excludes the fair value adjustment of biological assets, hence P/E (underlying) is a preferred valuation metric compared to P/E (basic).

Looking back at the history, results in 2015 were mixed but the outlook was positive, which explains the fluctuation in the EV/OP EBIT ratio. In 2020, Covid-19 took it toll and impacted demand for salmon and earnings negatively. In 2021 the salmon markets partially recovered, earnings improved and multiples contracted compared with the previous year despite higher market capitalisation. In 2022 and 2023 Mowi delivered its best results, however, due to rising inflation and higher interest rates Mowi's multiples contracted in line with the broader market developments.

Mowi has yielded an annualised total shareholder return in the past 10-year period of 10.1% compared to 9.5% of OSEBX and 13.3% of the Oslo Børs Seafood Index. In the past year Mowi has yielded a total shareholder return of 10.6%, compared to 9.1% of OSEBX and 13.0% of the Oslo Børs Seafood Index.

Operational EBIT % (Margin)

Operational EBIT % is a non-IFRS financial measure. We calculate Operational EBIT % by dividing Operational EBIT by Operational Revenue, each a non-IFRS financial measure. Management employs Operational EBIT % to assess operational performance of some of our segments, disregarding certain non-recurring and nonoperational items, excluded from Operational EBIT and Operational Revenue. The usefulness of Operational EBIT % is inherently limited as further described in Operational EBIT and Operational Revenue paragraphs above. A table setting forth our calculation of Operational EBIT % is set forth below.

Operational Revenue

Operational Revenue is a non-IFRS financial measure, calculated by including realised gain/loss from currency derivatives related to contract sales of Norwegian origin and excluding change in unrealised salmon derivatives from revenue and other income as set forth in our consolidated statement of comprehensive income prepared in accordance with IFRS. We exclude change in unrealised salmon derivatives from our revenue and other income as we believe it affects the comparability of our operational performance from period to period, given its non-operational nature. Our use of Operational Revenue should not be viewed as an alternative to revenue and other income, which is a measure calculated in accordance with IFRS. Operational Revenue has limitations as an analytical tool in comparison to revenue. Some of these limitations include the fact that changes in unrealised salmon derivatives may need to be cash settled at a future date. Our Operational Revenue is reconciled to revenue and other income in footnotes to our interim financial statements included in documents incorporated herein by reference.

Net interest-bearing debt - NIBD

Our NIBD as of the end of a period (for purposes of calculating average NIBD) is equal to our non-current interest-bearing debt minus our total cash, plus our current interest-bearing debt, plus the net effect of currency derivatives on interest-bearing financial debt.

Return on capital employed - ROCE

ROCE is a non-IFRS financial measure, calculated by dividing Adjusted EBIT by average capital employed. Adjusted EBIT is calculated as EBIT, as set forth in our consolidated statement of income prepared in accordance with IFRS, adjusted for:

  • fair value uplift on harvested fish
  • fair value adjustment on biological assets
  • impairment losses and write downs
  • provision for onerous contracts
  • gain/loss on sale of subsidiaries/associated companies
  • Production and sales taxes
  • other non-operational items (accrual for contingent liabilities and provisions)

As we believe the financial figures set forth in our consolidated statement of income and financial position do not always reflect the underlying performance of our operations, we continuously work to develop key operational performance indicators and alternative performance measures (non-IFRS measures) that we believe provide additional insight when analysing our Group's development.

Our APMs present useful information which supplements the financial statements. These measures are not defined under IFRS and may not be directly comparable with APMs for other companies. The APMs represent important measures for how management monitors the company and its business activity. The APMs are not intended to be a substitute for, or superior to, any IFRS measures of performance.

Some of the financial information presented in our Annual report contains APMs. These include Operational EBIT, Operational EBITDA, Operational Revenues, NIBD, ROCE, Underlying EPS, ROE, Operational EBIT % (Margin) and Adjusted Equity Ratio. Below we define these APMs and reconcile them with IFRS measures.

Alternative performance measures (APM)

– Non-IFRS measures

Operational EBIT and Operational EBIT per kg harvested

Operational EBIT is a non-IFRS financial measure, calculated by excluding each of the following items from earnings before financial items and taxes, or EBIT, as set forth in our consolidated statement of income prepared in accordance with IFRS:

  • change in unrealised internal margin
  • gain/loss from derivatives
  • fair value adjustment on harvested fish
  • fair value adjustment on incident-based mortality
  • fair value adjustment on biological assets
  • provision for onerous contracts
  • restructuring costs
  • income/loss from associated companies
  • impairment losses and write-downs
  • sales taxes/license fees/production fees and other nonoperational items (accrual for contingent liabilities and provisions)

We exclude these items from our EBIT as we believe they affect the comparability of our operational performance from period to period, given their non-operational or non-recurring nature. Operational EBIT is used by management, analysts, rating agencies and investors in assessing our performance. Accordingly, we believe that the presentation of Operational EBIT provides useful information to investors. Our use of Operational EBIT should not be viewed as an alternative to EBIT or to profit or loss for the year, which are measures calculated in accordance with IFRS. Operational EBIT has limitations as an analytical tool in comparison to EBIT or other profit and loss measures prepared in accordance with IFRS. Some of these limitations are:

1. it does not reflect the impact of earnings or charges that we consider not to be indicative of our on-going operations, 2. it does not reflect financial items and income tax expense; and 3. other companies, including other companies in our industry, may calculate Operational EBIT differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

We present Operational EBIT at Group level, by country of origin and by segment. For a reconciliation of our Operational EBIT by segment to EBIT, see Note 4 to the Group financial statements.

Average capital employed is calculated as the average of the beginning of the period and end of the period capital employed except when there are material transactions during the year. Capital employed is the sum of net interest bearing debt, or NIBD, as of the end of the period plus equity as of the end of the period adjusted for:

  • fair value adjustment on biological assets
  • provision for onerous contracts
  • net assets held for sale

We use ROCE to measure the return on capital employed, regardless of whether the financing is through equity or debt. In our view, this measure provides useful information for both management and our investors about our performance during periods under evaluation. We believe that the presentation of ROCE provides useful information to investors because ROCE can be used to determine whether capital invested in us yields competitive returns.

Our use of ROCE should not be viewed as an alternative to EBIT or to profit or loss for the year, which are measures calculated in accordance with IFRS or ratios based on these figures.

The usefulness of ROCE is also inherently limited by the fact that it is a ratio and thus does not provide information as to the absolute amount of our income, debt or equity. It also excludes certain items from the calculation and other companies may use a similar measure but calculate it differently.

Underlying EPS

Underlying Earnings per Share, or Underlying EPS, is a non-IFRS financial measure. We calculate Underlying EPS by dividing Adjusted Operational EBIT, calculated as Operational EBIT net of accrued payable interest (net), minority share of profit and tax expense calculated based on estimated tax rates, divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.

Management employs Underlying EPS to assess our operational performance, disregarding non-operational items like amortised interest, net currency effects and net other financial items with the exception of cash costs, and not reflecting permanent and temporary differences in the computation of taxes.

We view Underlying EPS as a useful tool reflecting our operational performance per ordinary share outstanding. The usefulness of Underlying EPS is inherently limited. Some of these limitations are that Underlying EPS does not reflect the impact of earnings or charges that we consider not to be indicative of our on-going operations and Underlying EPS. A table setting forth our calculation of Underlying EPS is set forth below.

For further details about our financial performance, please see the Profit section and Statements and Notes.

ROE

ROE is a non-IFRS financial measure, calculated by dividing underlying earnings by average adjusted Equity. Underlying earnings are calculated as Operational EBIT net of accrued payable interest (net), minority share of profit, contribution from associated companies and tax expense calculated based on estimated tax rates, divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Average adjusted equity is the average of total equity adjusted for fair value on biological assets as of the beginning of the period and total equity adjusted for fair value on biological assets as of the end of the period. Effects related to IFRS16 (leasing) is excluded in the calculation.

Covenants Equity Ratio

Covenant Equity Ratio is a non-IFRS financial measure. We calculate Covenant Equity Ration by excluding effects related to IFRS 16 (leasing) from equity. A table setting forth our calculation of Covenant Equity % is set forth below.

Net Cash Flow per share

Net Cash Flow per share is a non-IFRS financial measure. We calculate Net Cash Flow per share as cash flow from operations and investments (capex), net financial items paid and realised currency effects - divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Effects related to IFRS 16 (leasing) are excluded.

Karen Kyllesø takes Mowi to the South Pole

On 13 January 2025, Mowi Norway's Karen Kyllesø (21) set a new record as the youngest ever solo explorer to the South Pole. We are delighted that Mowi was with her all the way. Upon reaching the South Pole after 54 days, skiing 1,130 kilometres, Karen proudly planted the Mowi banner. Mowi was one of Karen's sponsors and supporters, and everyone at Mowi Norway and across our business units is in awe of her achievements. For her expedition, Karen packed food and equipment, including the Mowi banner, for 54 days – exactly how long she took – which was distributed across two sleds weighting 100 kg at the start.
