Since the groundwork started in May, Phase 1 at Indre Harøy has developed
according to plan, time and budget. The main contractor, Artec Aqua, has entered
into agreements with several subcontractors who are currently working on site.

During the quarter most of the groundwork for the fish-tanks and buildings has
been completed. The drainpipe for wastewater has also been completed and works
with the corresponding tunneling is on track. Concrete works, including
foundations for buildings and tanks, started in September. From project
initiation in 2019, capital expenditures have accumulated to approx. NOK 150
million, of which NOK 66 million came in the third quarter. Total capex for
Phase 1 isolated is estimated to NOK 1.2 billion before finalization in late
2022.

Being a pre-revenue company, funding is crucial to secure project development.
During the quarter, Salmon Evolution raised NOK 50 million in new equity through
a direct investment from partner Dongwon Industries and NOK 500 million through
a private placement in connection with the listing on Merkur Market.

Commenting on the development, CEO Håkon André Berg, said:

"The third quarter has been an eventful one for Salmon Evolution, with the
raising of new capital and listing on Merkur Market, in addition to the
continued development of our unique land-based salmon farming project. We are
now well underway with the first construction phase, where we expect to harvest
the first salmon late Q4 2022."

Berg added:

"With global demand for salmon continuously growing, we are convinced land-based
farming is crucial to solve the industry's growth challenge. With new
technologies for sustainable and stable production, we believe our project has
great potential to produce what the market demands - a fresh, healthy and
premium product. Using our Hybrid Flow-Through concept we will farm our salmon
in a closed system that has minimum impact on the environment and that provides
the best conditions for optimal fish welfare - "it's truly a sustainable
approach to producing on of the world's best and healthiest proteins", says
Berg.

Outlook

Salmon Evolution expects global demand of salmon to continue to grow in coming
years, and thus see limited risk for the volume contribution from land-based
suppliers bringing the salmon market out of balance. Salmon Evolution has clear
ambitions to be among the leading players in this market. With current project
and future expansion plans combined, the company har a clear road map towards a
harvest of 70,000 tonnes HOG by 2030. The first international initiative is
expected to be in South Korea, where the company plans to partner with Dongwon
Industries.
