HIGHLIGHTS Q1 AND SUBSEQUENT PERIOD Q1 2025

OPTIMISED PRODUCTION LOGISTICS FOR +20% HIGHER VOLUMES
Announced plan for increased water flow capacity and optimized fish logistics to enable 20% higher through-put to give 23,700 tonnes (HOG + post-smolt) production capacity from current Kvalnes license


Initiated phase 2a with additional production volume of 6,000 tonnes (HOG + post-smolt)

RAISED FUNDS OF NOK ~1.4 BN
Through bank package, potential sale and leaseback agreement, plus successful private placement


KVALNES PHASE 1 BUILD-OUT ON TRACK FOR Q3 SMOLT RELEASE
Solid progress on four next pools and other workstreams
SUCCESSFUL BREAKTHROUGH TO ANDFJORDEN

Comments
• Andfjord Salmon has been informed by main contractor Hæhre that the final construction cost will be higher than the original budget
• In total, phases 1 and 2A had a prior total capex budget of NOK 2,800 million, which is hereby upwards adjusted to NOK 3,120 million. In addition, the company has conducted infrastructure work inside the waterways that are related to preparations for steps 4 and 5 of the expansion. This amounts to NOK 80 million in total and the budget for step 4 is adjusted
[MAY] 2025 Q1
• NOK 100 million of the capex is related to Phase 2B
• The revision is connected to higher than expected costs related to concrete production; mobilization of additional development resources, manpower and equipment to maintain progress; unforeseen costs related to certain one-off design changes as the project has progressed; plus adverse weather conditions that have eroded the financial buffer for the harbour workstream
• Front-loading of some of the additional capex investments are expected to drive efficiency gains and de-risk the build-out process for forthcoming build-out phases
• The Kvalnes site is expected to deliver 48,100 tonnes of production once fully scaled
• After these adjustments, the company expects blended capex for the full Kvalnes site at NOK
• Significant parts of the total Kvalnes infrastructure, including e.g. waterways and harbour to support full scale production of 48,100 tonnes, is taken as part of phases 1 and 2
Equity issue

STRONG SHAREHOLDER SUPPORT: IMMEDIATE RESOLUTION FOR CAPEX FINANCING
[MAY] 2025 Q12025

- To finance the updated CAPEX, an equity injection totaling NOK 400 million has been secured from certain existing shareholders at a subscription price of NOK 36.80 per share:
- Jerónimo Martins (the Company's largest shareholder) will be allocated shares equal to an amount of NOK 300 million
- Three other existing shareholders will be allocated the remaining NOK 100 million
- The financing is carried out as a directed equity issue conducted in line with the authorization granted by the annual general meeting to the board of Andfjord Salmon
- The board has considered the structure of the equity raise in light of relevant equal treatment obligations and guidelines, and is of the view that the ability to efficiently secure the additional capital required at current market price with no discount and without project or production interference is in the common interest of the Company and all its shareholders.
