Outlook
BEWI ASA delivered a strong Q1 2026 with volume growth across all segments. The group remains focused on its long-term financial targets, including a clear path towards achieving a 15 per cent EBITDA margin. We see BEWI as well positioned to continue to improve its operations and leverage on increased market activity. We also expect improved cash generation next quarter following inventory build up at favorable prices as reported by the company.
Sinkaberg AS is off to a good start in 2026 showing strong financial performance with harvest volumes of 7 890 tones, and an adjusted EBITDA margin of 31.0% despite lower salmon prices compared to Q1 2025. Sinkaberg is continuing its high quality operational performance, with low mortality rates and high share of superior quality fish. The company has a strong balance sheet and is well positioned for growth throughout its value chain.
Following quarter-end, Corvus Estate AS completed the acquisition of a fully let light industrial property in Oppdal, further strengthening the platform through the addition of a strategically located asset with long-term leases and solid tenants supporting stable cash flow.
The BEWI Invest share is now traded on the Oslo Stock Exchange. We believe the company has been well received and we look forward to widening the awareness of, and interest in, the BEWI Invest share in the time to come.

| EBITDA | Earnings before interest, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is a key ratio that the group considers relevant to understand the earning potential before investments in fixed assets |
|---|---|
| EBITDA margin | EBITDA as a percentage of net sales. The EBITDA margin is a key ratio that the group considers relevant to understand the profitability of the business and to make comparisons with other companies |
| Adjusted EBITDA | Normalized earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization. Items affecting comparability and deviations are added back |
| EBIT | Earnings before interest and taxes.

However, depreciations are included which is a measure of resource consumption that is necessary to generate the result. |
| LTV | Loan-to-value measures net debt in relation to fair value of investments. Net debt includes interest-bearing debt and non-interest-bearing debt less cash and other assets. |
