HIGHLIGHTS Q2 AND SUBSEQUENT PERIOD

Q2 2025

RAISED FUNDS OF NOK 1.15 BN

NOK 400 million private placement of shares plus NOK 750 million bond issue for investments and working capital for Kvalnes expansion

SALE-LEASEBACK

Completed sale and leaseback of Kvalnes harbour area, with gross proceeds of NOK 400 million

PREPARATIONS FOR SMOLT RELEASE

Preparations underway to initiate smolt release ultimo September

  • Andfjord Salmon in brief
  • Quarterly highlights and subsequent events
  • NEW REGULATIONS FOR LAND-BASED AQUACULTURE
  • Status Kvalnes build-out
  • Preparations for smolt release
  • Financials
  • Summary and outlook

NEW REGULATIONS LAND-BASED AQUACULTURE

SUMMARY OF REGULATORY CHANGES

o The regulations removes confusion about which aquaculture facilities are
defined as being "on land" or "at sea", irrespective of the fish's life stage.
o Reequirement
for the disinfection
of intake water for land-based aquaculture
facilities in order to reduce the risk of spreading infectious agents via water.
o The purification requirement for freshwater only applies to facilities sourcing
freshwater
from areas with migrating anadromous fish or other activities
that may pose an infection risk.
o The temporary suspension of processing applications for permits for the
aquaculture of food fish such as salmon, trout, and rainbow trout is lifted.

o Andfjord Salmon's locations at Andøya (Kvalnes, Breivik and Fiskenes) are all set on solid ground, which is defined as "on land" in the regulations.

o Existing facilities that have already been granted permission for land-based aquaculture will not be subject to the proposed purification requirements, unless significant modifications are made. What constitutes a "significant modification" will be specified in a guidance document prepared by the Norwegian Food Safety Authority (Mattilsynet).

o (Not applicable as Andfjord Salmon sources seawater from the ocean)

o Means that Andfjord Salmon can progress the work to apply for salmon farming licenses at Breivik and Fiskenes, Andøya.

  • Status Kvalnes build-out
  • PREPARATIONS FOR SMOLT RELEASE
  • Financials
  • Summary and outlook

PLANNED SMOLT RELEASE

ON TRACK TO INITIATE SMOLT RELEASE ULTIMO SEPTEMBER

~1,100,000 smolt in total to be released this autumn

  • o ~350,000 to be released in pool K0 ultimo September
  • o ~750,000 in pool K1 ultimo October
  • o Smolt to be transferred to next pools as biomass density increases
  • o Smolt release represents a significant scale up of commercial operations for Andfjord Salmon
  • o Currently assessing "post-smolt" production opportunities
  • o Following the initial release, Andfjord Salmon expects to continuously introduce new batches to maintain consistent salmon production

CHASING FOR IMPROVEMENTS

NEW FEEDING SOLUTION DEVELOPED:

  • o Using seawater instead of air to distribute the feed = gentler on piping infrastructure and hoses, which releases less microplastics
  • o Releases feed below the pool surface = higher accuracy for sinking rate
  • o Possible to adjust distribution pressure and distribution area according to number of fish released in pool
  • o Higher accuracy of pellet landing area makes it easier to monitor the feeding with a camera
  • o In total: Higher feeding capacity, reduced feed waste, lower energy consumption

INVESTED IN OPTOSCALE SYSTEM THAT MONITORS:

  • o The feeding process
  • o Fish development: Weight, condition factor, size distribution growth
  • o Fish welfare according to 13 Laksvel welfare parametres

CALANUS® PLUS BY ANDFJORD SALMON

  • o Continues collaboration with Skretting regarding Andfjord Salmon's specialised grow-out feed with Calanus
  • o Same formula, but with improvements made to the feed's buoyancy
  • o More accurately designed for Andfjord Salmon's flow-through technology

AIMING TO IMPROVE FEED CONVERSION RATION (FCR) OF 1.05 FROM FIRST PRODUCTION CYCLE

PREPARATIONS FOR SMOLT RELEASE

INFRASTRUCTURE TESTING

  • o Tunnel infrastructure below pools currently filled with seawater to initiate circulation, facilitate particle sedimentation, and start assessment of seawater quality
  • o From end-August: Full scale circulation throughout inlet waterway

EXTENSIVE TECHNOLOGY TESTING PRIOR TO SMOLT RELEASE

  • o Testing of fish logistics system
  • o Testing of complete SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) control system

PREPARATION AND TESTING OF SMOLT DELIVERY FROM WELLBOAT

  • o Connecting wellboat to fish logistics system
  • o Communication and interaction with wellboat
  • o Run pipeline from K0's water inlet to refill wellboat in order to reduce biological risk (avoid sourcing seawater from harbour)
  • o Possible to terminate the operation and flush the water pipeline using the same water flow that we use to fill the wellboat
  • o Monitoring and verification of speed and pressure via the SCADA system

Overall, these tests provide important know-how about key focus areas and the use of operators
