(Figures in brackets refer to 2024 unless other is specified)

Activity level in the second quarter was high with revenue of MNOK 1.167 and order intake of MNOK 1.052. The acceptable order intake in the second quarter was supported by the award of the land based contract from Laxey of approx. MEUR 20.

The order backlog of MNOK 2.712 is respectable and is forming a good basis for a sound activity level the next quarter.

The profitability improved significantly compared to last year, and is primarily related to the higher revenue level.

Alternative Performance Measures - Non IFRS Financial Measures

AKVA group discloses alternative performance measures as a supplement to the financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. Such performance measures are used to provide an enhanced insight into the operating performance, financing and future prospects of the company and are frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties. The definition of these measures are as follows:

  • Available cash is a non-IFRS financial measure, calculated by summarizing all cash in the Group in addition to available cash from established credit facilities.
  • Capital Employed is calculated using the formula (total assets cash and RoU asset) – (total current liabilities – liabilities to financial institutions and lease liability).
  • EBITDA is the earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortizations. It can be calculated by the EBIT added by the depreciations and amortizations.
  • NIBD Net interest-bearing debt is a non-IFRS financial measure, equal to our interest-bearing debt plus lease liability minus our cash and cash equivalents at the balance sheet date.
  • NIBD / EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure, calculated as period end NIBD divided by the prior 12 months EBITDA.
  • Order backlog is a non-IFRS measure, calculated as signed orders and contracts at the balance sheet date.
  • Order intake is a non-IFRS measure, calculated as order backlog at the end of period minus order backlog at start of period and revenue in the period.
  • ROACE Return on average Capital Employed is a non-IFRS financial measure, calculated by dividing the last 12 months EBIT by the quarterly average of the Capital Employed ex. IFRS 16 last 12 months.
  • ROCE Return on Capital Employed is a non-IFRS financial measure, calculated by dividing the last 12 months EBIT by capital employed at the balance sheet date.
  • Working Capital is a non-IFRS financial measure calculated by current assets less cash minus current liabilities less liabilities to financial institutions.
  • Equity ratio is a non-IFRS financial measure, calculated by dividing total equity by total assets.
  • EBIT-margin, calculated as EBIT divided by total revenues.
  • EBITDA-margin, calculated as EBITDA divided by total revenues.
  • EBIT is the earnings before interest and taxes. It can be calculated by the profit before tax added by the net financial items.
  • Debt to equity ratio is a non-IFRS financial measure, calculated by dividing total gross interest-bearing debt to total equity.
  • Net free cash flow per per share is a non-IFRS financial measure, calculated as change in net free cash flow divided by the number of shares outstanding at year-end.
