About Salmon Evolution

Salmon Evolution is a Norwegian land-based salmon farming company focused 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 under construction at Indre Harøy,

strategically located on the Norwegian west coast with unlimited access to fresh

seawater, renewable energy, established infrastructure for salmon farming, and

an educated and experienced work force. The entire project is designed for an

annual capacity of approx. 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.

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