Harvest Volumes: Salmon Evolution achieved record Q3 harvest volumes of close to 1,400 tonnes, doubling compared to the same period last year.
Revenue Growth: Revenue rose 70% year-on-year to approximately NOK 87 million, driven by increased volumes despite lower prices.
Profitability: The company reported negative EBITDA (minus NOK 40 million at group level), mainly due to weak salmon prices and temporary higher farming costs.
Operational Performance: Operations remain stable with industry-leading low mortality (3%) and superior grade share (around 95%).
Phase 2 Progress: Phase 2 expansion is on time and on budget, with commissioning to begin within 30 days and first smolt release scheduled for late Q1 2026.
Outlook & Guidance: Management expects a significant increase in harvest volumes to about 7,000 tonnes in 2026 (up 50% from 2025), with long-term annual run rate targets of 18,000 tonnes by end-2027.
Market Recovery: Salmon prices have recovered since the quarter, and global supply is expected to tighten in 2026, positioning the company well for improved margins ahead.
