Måsøval is a Norwegian fish farming pioneer. Ever since the company was founded in 1973, our dedicated employees have worked in close harmony with nature.

On the coast of central Norway, the Atlantic provides strong currents and high tidal range, ensuring an abundance of fresh, clean seawater. It's here, in one of the most beautiful coastal landscapes in the world, that we make one of the best ingredients in the world – Salmon: Made by nature, pioneered by Måsøval.

Led by the third generation of the Måsøval family, we now produce more than 16 000 tonnes of salmon a year, serving 1.6 million people – every single week, year round.

And even though we've already achieved a lot, we're still hungry for more sustainable growth.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

(Figures in brackets refer to Q2 2020, unless specified otherwise)

2.1.REVENUES AND RESULTS

The Group built biomass in sea of MNOK 77 (1 960 tonnes) during the quarter to utilise acquired MAB of 2 780 tonnes last 12 months. This resulted in lower sales and a Group Operational EBIT in Q2 2021 of MNOK 59, a reduction of MNOK 63 compared to the same period last year. The decline in revenues and EBIT is mainly attributable to the lower harvested volume in Q2 2021 compared to the corresponding quarter last year.

Måsøval AS harvested 2 985 tonnes gutted weight in this quarter. This represents a decrease in harvested volume of 41 percent compared to the corresponding quarter in 2020.

2.2. BALANCE SHEET

At the end of Q2 2021, total assets ended at MNOK 2 226. This implies an increase in total assets of MNOK 568 since the previous quarter. The increase is mainly attributable to the acquisition of three companies: Stokkøy Skjell AS, Pure Farming AS and Pure Norwegian Seafood AS. As a consequence, total intangible assets increased by MNOK 221 compared to the previous quarter. Total property, plant and equipment increased by MNOK 132 and ended at MNOK 444 (MNOK 312 in Q1 2021). Consequently, total non-current assets increased significantly by MNOK 361. Further, total current assets increased by MNOK 207 since the end of Q1 2021. This development in total current assets is attributable to the acquisition of the mentioned companies. The Group's inventories increased by MNOK 77, mainly attributable to the buildup of biomass in Måsøval AS. Receivables increased by MNOK 34 and cash and cash equivalents by MNOK 95.

The Group's net interest-bearing debt increased by MNOK 276 compared to the end of Q1 2021.

At the end of the reporting quarter, the Group's total equity was MNOK 642, an increase of MNOK 155 compared to the end of Q1 2021. Equity ratio at the end of Q2 2021 was 28.8%.

2.3. STATEMENT OF CASH FLOW

The Group achieved a negative cash flow from operating activities of MNOK-6 during the second quarter of this year. Net cash flow generated by investing and financial activities had, as well, a negative impact on the cash flow. Cash outflows from investing activities are primarily related to payments for property, plant, equipment and intangible assets and amounted to MNOK 370 (MNOK 4). Net cash generated by financing activities in Q2 2021 reached MNOK 471 (MNOK -23).In Q2 2021 the Group raised new non-current borrowings totalling MNOK 356 and spent MNOK 81 on repayment of non-current and current borrowings. Further, the Group increased the outstanding balance on the overdraft facility by MNOK 75. Finally, net cash related to equity ended at MNOK 122.

4. OTHER MATTERS

4.1. COVID-19 PANDEMIC

The COVID-19 pandemic has not significantly affected the Group's operations during Q2. We have a strong focus on complying with the national and local authorities' infection control rules.

The organization is updated on changes in infection control rules and continuously reminded of current rules. The situation is followed up carefully and in line with the authorities' recommendations and we have mainly kept the measures at a stable level in Q2.

4.2. OTHER PROJECTS

4.2.1 Aqua Semi

In 2019 Måsøval received 4 development licenses to develop the concept Aqua Semi based on application delivered 2017. Aqua Semi is designed to open up new areas for salmon farming, reduce lice and disease contagion, improve fish health and lower operational costs. The project is still in a development phase. The next milestone for this project is to conclude the designprocess including verification of design from DNV GL together with our strategic partner Vard. We expect this to be finished this fall. When design documents are approved by Måsøval we will negotiate and conclude the contract for building the unit. We expect to conclude negotiations during second half-2021.

Further milestones if contract are signed second half 2021 are delivery of unit second half 2023 and harvesting f generation 1 in 2024.

4.2.2 Post-smolt

The Post-Smolt project is still in a development phase. In 2020, Måsøval AS acquired a land-based facility and started design work to develop production facilities that can produce up to 900 000 post-smolts of 550 grams in phase 1. In addition, there are development opportunities to double the production capacity. The project is considered to be an important strategic move to increase the flexibility of the Group's smolt strategy and production plans. The main ambition of this project is to develop a production unit that can produce 2 million post-smolts at average weight of 500 grams per year. Applications are now sent to the authorities and we expect that all required licences are granted. Our core plan is to release the first fish from this project in 2023 (for more detailed information see Annual report 2020 pages 20-23).

3.2. SEGMENT INFORMATION – SALES & PROCESSING

* Q2 2020, YTD 2020, 2020, YTD 2021 refer to the result of segment Sales & Processing as if the Group had owned a majority of Pure Norwegian Seafood AS in 2020 and Q1 2021. In the consolidated figures, only Q2 2021 figures are included.

Segment Sales and Processing is the 65% owned company Pure Norwegian Seafood AS acquired by Måsøval Q2 21. Måsøval will increase delivery from internal production through Pure Norwegian Seafood AS in 2021, when existing contracts expire. Sales will have a significant increase in volumes from internal production in 2022, and harvesting will follow in 2023. This segment achieved an EBIT of MNOK 2 in Q2, 2,5% of total revenues for the segment.

Achieved sales revenues of MNOK 81 (170) in Q2 2021is lower than the same quarter last Year. The decline of MNOK 89 compared to the corresponding period last year is attributable to a lower sales and harvested volumeThe reason for the decline is the lower harvest from Pure Norwegian Seafoods existing partners.

We expect higher volumes through this segment second half of 2021.

NASDAQ AVERAGE PRICE

The salmon price in Q2 was an improvement on a soft Q1. The salmon price per kg was also slightly higher in this quarter compared to the corresponding period in 2020.

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to affect the world, including the salmon market. Despite this fact, the salmon price is expected to remain relatively stable for the rest of the year, although slightly lower than Q2. Fishpool forward price for Q3 this year is NOK 59 and the average forward price in the period of Q3 2021 - Q2 2O22 is NOK 63. This implies that, even under unstable circumstances, the salmon price seems to be higher than the average price in the period of Q1 2019 – Q4 2020.

NOTE 1 ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

These condensed consolidated quarterly financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Accounting Act of 1998.07.17 and generally accepted accounting principles in Norway. The quarterly reports do not include all the information required by an annual financial report and therefore must be read in conjunction with the 2020 consolidated financial statements of the Group. Theese consolidated financial statements are available upon request from the Group's headquarters at Frøya or from the Group's website, https://en.masoval. no/investor/reports-and-presentations.

The condensed consolidated quarterly financial statements are unaudited. As a result of rounding differences, numbers or percentages may not add up to the total.

In these quarterly financial statements, the Group has used the same accounting principles as described in the 2020 consolidated financial statements of the Group.
