Nordic Halibut AS ("NOHAL" or "the Company") has observed a continuation of the
upward trend in sales prices in Q1 2025. The increase was consistent across size
categories compared to the same quarter last year and demonstrates the strong
demand and willingness to pay for quality farmed halibut. In Q1 2025, the
company achieved an average sales price of 193 NOK/kg HOG, representing an 18,5%
increase YoY.
The Company also experienced an increase in harvest weights, averaging 5,6 kg
HOG, compared to Q1 2024's average harvest weight of 4.4 kg HOG.
Sales revenue for Q1 2025 amounted to NOK 44 million, with harvest volumes
reaching 228 tonnes HOG, an increase of 68% compared to the same quarter in
2024.
The biomass is performing well, demonstrated by a 5,8% biomass growth during the
quarter, net of harvest compared to Q4 2024. Including the harvest amount this
represents total production at sea of 16,5% biomass during the quarter.
NOHAL has entered into a strategic agreement with Pure Norwegian Seafood AS
(PNS), securing the right to utilize PNS' processing facilities in Averøy.
Additionally, the company has obtained an option to acquire 100% of PNS shares
from its principal shareholder, Måsøval AS, contingent upon agreements with
minority shareholders.
Through this strategic partnership, NOHAL takes the final step toward full
control of its entire value chain from genetics to harvesting, processing, and
value-added production ensuring optimal quality and efficiency.
The Company has reached a significant milestone with the final investment
decision for the Tingvoll production facility. This decision marks a key step in
the company's growth strategy as it expands its operational capabilities.
Construction commenced in Q1 2025, and the facility is expected to be fully
operational by 2027.
The Tingvoll production facility will play a crucial role in supporting Nordic
Halibut's ramp-up plan, which aims to achieve an annual production of 10,350
tonnes HOG by 2031
