Andfjord Salmon: New contractors engaged at Kvalnes

11.12.2025 15:44:14 CET | Andfjord Salmon | Non-regulatory press releases

Andfjord Salmon Group AS (Andfjord Salmon) has reached an agreement with North

Norway-based contractor Entreprenør Harald Nilsen AS, together with concrete

specialist Nornebygg AS as subcontractor. Together they will complete the two

next land-based pools that form part of the current build-out phase at Kvalnes,

Andøya.

Entreprenør Harald Nilsen AS and Nornebygg AS have already begun preparations,

allowing work on the construction site to start as early as January 2026.

Several of the current site subcontractors will remain involved in the project,

ensuring an efficient transition from the previous main contractor.

"We are pleased to reach agreement with contractors that have extensive

experience from concrete works, used to dealing with the climatic conditions in

Northern Norway and can start more or less immediately. This is also in line

with our announcement on 3 December that the change of contractor is expected to

have a non-material effect on our production plans," says Martin Rasmussen, CEO

of Andfjord Salmon.

The parties have agreed on a timeline and plan moving forward with the next two

pools - K2 and K4 - scheduled for completion by spring/summer 2026, which is

sufficient to maintain Andfjord Salmon's production plans. Andfjord Salmon

estimates mobilisation costs of approximately NOK 20 million to replace the

former main contractor.

Entreprenør Harald Nilsen AS, together with concrete specialist Nornebygg AS,

have recently completed a milestone concrete project for Statnett and possess

the prerequisites needed to carry out the final part of K2 and K4 in a safe and

cost-efficient manner.

Andfjord Salmon and Entreprenør Harald Nilsen AS will also enter into dialogue

regarding potentially collaborating on future build-out phases at Kvalnes.

Andfjord Salmon will provide an operational update, and present the company's

third quarter 2025 financial results, on 16 December 2025.
