About Salmon Evolution

Salmon Evolution is a Norwegian land-based salmon farming company targeting a

production capacity of 100,000 tonnes HOG by 2032. The Company's core focus is

on extending the ocean's potential by transferring the best preconditions

offered by the sea to farm fish on land through its chosen hybrid flow-through

system technology (HFS). This secures a truly sustainable production process

with controlled and optimal growth conditions and limiting operational and

biological risk.

The Company's first production facility is strategically located at Indre Harøy

on the Norwegian west coast with unlimited access to fresh seawater, renewable

energy, established infrastructure, and an educated and experienced work force.

Phase 1 is already in operation and will have an annual capacity of 7,900 tonnes

HOG at steady state. Fully developed, the Indre Harøy facility will have an

annual capacity of 31,500 tonnes HOG. The Company has also entered into a joint

venture with Dongwon Industries where the parties will develop, construct and

operate a land-based salmon farming facility in South Korea with an annual

production capacity of 16,800 tonnes HOG, using Salmon Evolution's chosen HFS

technology.

Furthermore, Salmon Evolution has initiated a process with the aim of

establishing a land-based salmon farming operation in North America.

Salmon Evolution ASA is listed on Oslo Børs under the ticker SALME.
