Commentary on EBITDA fluctuations provided in financial review





The project in Torjulvågen is now entering the installation phase. Major groundwork has been completed, with initial tank systems installed.



In Q2 2025, the company experienced an increase in total harvest volume, reaching 266 tonnes HOG, compared to 125 tonnes in the same quarter of 2024. All biomass was processed at PNS, ensuring efficient and quality-assured processing.
The superior quality rate remained consistently high in Q2 2025, registering at 99.3%, compared to 99.4% in the same quarter last year. The survival rate showed strong year-on-year progress, reaching 99.3% compared to 97.6% in Q2 2024.
Harvesting was carried out weekly throughout the quarter, ensuring a consistent and stable production rate along with reliable market access.
The average harvest weight was 4.3 kg HOG, an increase from 4.1 kg HOG in Q2 2024. Due to the planned harvesting of smaller-sized fish during the quarter, the average harvest weights was lower than the 5.6 kg HOG reported in Q1 2025. Despite the temporary decline in average harvest weight in Q2, the company remains committed to its strategy of producing larger-sized fish and anticipates higher average weights in the second half of 2025.
Increased harvest weight is an important step toward meeting customer demand for larger fish.
In line with the company's growth strategy, biomass accumulation continued through the quarter, with a net increase of 3.6% after harvest. Total production reached 388 tonnes, representing a 15.4% growth in biomass from Q1 2025.
The company achieved an average sales price of NOK 170 per kg HOG in Q2 2025, representing an 11.1% increase compared to the same quarter in 2024. Average export price in Q2 2025 was NOK 174 per kg HOG.
Construction of the Torjulvågen facility, which commenced in Q1 2025, progressed according to plan during Q2 2025. The facility is expected to be fully operational by 2027 and will be instrumental in supporting the Company's scale-up plan, targeting an annual production of 10,350 tonnes HOG by 2031.
Through the strategic agreement with Pure Norwegian Seafood AS, the Company has taken the final step towards full integration of its value chain – from genetics to harvesting, processing, and value-added production – ensuring optimal quality and operational efficiency. During the quarter, the Company initiated preparations for value-added production.

Nordic Halibut's growth strategy is focused on producing larger-sized halibut to capture strong market demand and deliver improved profitability. The Company is well-positioned to benefit from premium pricing in key export markets, where halibut above 6 kg are particularly sought after.
Halibut farming offers unique biological advantages, such as the absence of early maturation and lice issues. This provides greater predictability in growth cycles and size development, allowing production to be tailored to market demand. To support this direction, the Company prioritizes biomass build-up and optimal size growth, with harvest volumes directed toward larger weight categories.
Although this strategy may result in fluctuating harvest volumes in 2025 and 2026, it is expected to generate higher margins and reinforce the Company's market position over the long term.
Nordic Halibut harvested 539 tonnes HOG in 2024 and aims to approximately double annual volumes each year until 2027, in line with the company's long-term growth ambitions
A harvest of 266 tonnes HOG in Q2 2025 (550 tons HOG Ytd) reaffirms the Company's progress towards delivering on its 2025 production targets. At the same time, the Company continues to build biomass and focus on the production of larger-sized halibut.
Nordic Halibut is strategically positioned to achieve its business objectives.
The company has established an integrated value chain, including all necessary capacities for run rate production of 4,500 tonnes in 2027. The production capacity will be expanded through the construction of a new fully integrated land-based facility at Torjulvågen, complemented by additional sea site locations. Together these developments will support the company's long-term production target of 10,350 tonnes by 2031.
Annual harvest volumes (ktonnes HOG)


Despite temporarily reduced harvest weights and seasonal demand fluctuations, the price trend remained stable and positive throughout Q2, reflecting continued market strength.
The price outlook is expected to remain strong going forward. Nordic Halibut remains committed to capitalizing on this opportunity by scaling up the production of sustainable, high-quality protein.
The company is confident in the presence of a market for premium halibut products and intends to execute commercial strategies to expand into new markets while further enhancing awareness and demand for its unique sustainable product.
Effective August 6, the United States has introduced a 15% import tariff on Norwegian goods. This measure is expected to drive up prices for American consumers. While the long-term impact on U.S. demand remains uncertain, premium halibut and the high-end segment are expected to be less affected due to their strong market positioning and lower sensitivity to price changes. To migrate risk, Nordic Halibut is actively pursuing global market diversification.
Nordic Halibut has established a strategic focus on developing value-added products. Initiatives in this area were launched during Q2 2025, and this work is continuing as part of the company's long-term growth strategy.
Nordic Halibut integrates sustainability as a core element of its strategy and daily operations. The company has implemented a structured ESG framework with measurable indicators and targeted improvement initiatives across key areas such as fish welfare, environmental impact, and responsible value chain practices. Active monitoring of supply chain conditions and adherence to ethical standards reinforce its commitment to responsible business conduct. These efforts are aligned with the Norwegian Transparency Act, ensuring transparency and human rights due diligence.

The Company aims to release 1 million fish annually until the new infrastructure becomes fully operational in 2027. Due to biological conditions, the stocking forecast for 2025 has been adjusted to 900 000. Nordic Halibut is working diligently to optimize biological performance to reach our target. Several ongoing initiativessupport this effort, including:


Sales revenue in Q2 2025 reached NOK 32 million, compared to NOK 19 million in the same period in 2024. The increase was driven by higher harvesting volumes and improved sales prices.
EBITDA for Q2 2025 was negative at NOK -27 million, compared to NOK -11 million in Q2 2024. EBITDA in Q2 2025 was impacted by a negative value adjustment of juvenile halibut put to sea. This is due to the accounting method where juvenile fish stocked at sea are valued under the fair value principle, while land-based juveniles are valued at cost. This contributes to volatility in reported earnings and fair value adjustments of biological assets.
The decline compared to Q2 2024 is also partly attributable to increased operating expenses, primarily driven by lease agreements for the juvenile production facility at Tjeldbergodden and harvesting capacity at PNS. These facilities represent strategic investments aimed at enhancing future production capacity. As expected during the Company's current growth phase, expenses are frontloaded. Financial scale effects form increased production, and sales are anticipated to materialize gradually over time.
In Q2 2025, the net change in fair value of biological assets was recognized at NOK 4 million. Underlying biomass growth at sea has been strong in the period with a total biomass growth of 15,4% from Q1 2025.
The Company reported a net loss of NOK -40,9 million for the period compared to a net loss of NOK -23,6 in the same quarter of 2024.
The key priority going forward is to safeguard standing biomass to ensure a sustainable balance between harvest volumes and size-distribution in biomass while growing towards run-rate harvest- and production volumes of 4,500 tonnes HOG.
As of 30 June 2025, Nordic Halibut's total capital was NOK 846 million (YoY change + NOK 155 million). Inventories and biological assets are capitalized at NOK 476 million compared to NOK 351 million on 30 June 2024.
Total equity stands at NOK 652 million on 30 June 2025, representing an equity ratio of 77% compared to 67% on 30 June 2024.
The Company is in compliance with all financial covenants.

To the financial statements
These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards 34 Interim Financial Reporting (IAS 34).
The company's Annual Report is prepared in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards as adopted by the European Union. The company's accounting policies adopted and applied in this interim report are consistent with those applied in the Company's 2024 Annual Report.
No accounting principles have been changed, or new standards have been adopted during the period.
This interim report does not include all information and disclosures required International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) in the annual financial statements and should therefore be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report for 2024.
The annual report is available at www.nordichalibut.com.
In preparation of these interim financial statements, the management is required to make estimates and assumptions concerning the future that affect the accounting policies and recognized amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.
The most significant estimates relate to the valuation of biological assets.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be probable under the present circumstances. The final outcomes may deviate from these estimates. Changes in estimates are reflected in the accounts as they occur.

Biological assets comprise broodstock fish, eggs, juveniles, 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 7,2 kg. This corresponds to that fish with live weight of 7,2 kg, 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 juveniles are measured at cost due to little transformation and as a reasonable proxy of fair value.
Broodstock recruits are measured at accumulated cost (normalized) through development stages from selected juvenile broodstock recruits until the selected group reaches roe producing broodstock stage. The accumulated cost for broodstock recruits is time adjusted for each category to reflect the cost per fish balance throughout the development phases.
Producing broodstock fishes are measured at accumulated cost per fish (normalized) at the time they are considered roe producing with an added margin to reflect value of this fish in a hypothetical market, adjusted for time value and declining value as remaining roe producing periods lessen until ultimately being valued at estimated sales value to consumption.
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.
The fair value of the biological assets at sea is calculated using a 2% monthly discounting of the cash flow based on the month in which the fish reaches optimal harvest weight. The discount factor is intended to reflect three main components: 1. Risk of incidents that affect cash flow; 2. Hypothetical site rental cost; 3. Time value of money
The discount factor is set on the basis of an average for all the Company's sites, which, in the Company's assessment, provides a sensible growth curve for the fish – from juvenile to harvestable size. The risk adjustment must consider the biological risks of farming, including the average time in sea for the fish. The number of months left until harvesting will affect the risk. Biological risk, the risk of increased costs and price risk will be the most important elements to be recognized.
Fair value adjustments are part of the Company's EBIT, but changes in fair value are presented on a separate line to provide better understanding of the Company's profit/loss on cost of goods sold.
