P/F Bakkafrost kom med sitt Q4-resultat 17 februar.


BAKKA: Strong biological performance but quiet quarter in the FOF segment

Børsmelding
17.02.2025

The Bakkafrost Group delivered a total operational EBIT of DKK 280 million (DKK 356 million) in Q4-2024.

(Figures in parenthesis refer to the same period last year unless otherwise specified)

The performance in Q4-2024 per region was as follows

Faroe Islands: Revenues of DKK 1 184 million (1 478 million), Operational EBIT of DKK 310 million (461 million)
Scotland: Revenues of DKK 286 million (84 million), Operational EBIT of DKK -31 million (-104 million)

Commenting on the result, CEO Regin Jacobsen said:

"The Freshwater and Farming operations in Faroe Islands had a strong development in this quarter. Biological performance remains robust, with solid growth, effective sea lice management, and harvesting of large fish. We are also pleased with the continued progress in our freshwater segment, which has set new production records for the second consecutive quarter of producing large, high-quality smolt. This improved efficiency is helping to reduce costs.

The FOF segment achieved record-high feed sales in 2024, marking the second-best year after 2023. Despite good full-year financial results, fourth-quarter performance was hurt by lower external fishmeal and oil sales due to reduced raw material sourcing, which normalized following the record-high levels in 2023.

In Scotland, the transition to producing large, high-quality smolt at Applecross has begun. As we scale up production this year and gradually replace legacy fish from our marine farms with high-quality fish, we expect a fundamental transformation of our farming operations from next year onwards. Overall, we are pleased with the de-risking of our Scottish operations in 2024. Mortality has decreased significantly, and fish harvested in the quarter was large, contributing to the highest full-year EBITDA since the acquisition. As we await the full replacement of legacy fish, we will continue a similar de-risking strategy in 2025, before starting the journey to ramp up production from 2026.

Stronger supply growth contributes to downward price pressure. The market price for salmon was weaker than expected this quarter, negatively impacting the margin.

Three major projects are progressing well - the Applecross and Skálavík hatcheries and the expansion of Havsbrún feed factory. These projects are crucial to achieving our goals for 2028 and beyond with robust large smolt, best feed and good fish welfare."

During Q4-2024, the FOF segment sourced 41 919 tonnes (53 552 tonnes) of raw material. The Operational EBIT margin was 12% (25%), and fish feed sales amounted to 38 853 tonnes (39 354 tonnes).

For the full year 2024, the FOF segment's operational EBIT margin was 18% (23%). For the full year 2024, Havsbrún sourced 309 502 tonnes (467 037 tonnes) of raw material.

Market Outlook

Supply increased in Q4-2024


The supply of salmon increased 5.2% in Q4-2024 compared to Q4-2023, incl. inventory movements. Without inventory movements, the supply increase was 3.5%, according to the latest estimate from Kontali Analyse.

Lower salmon prices in Q4-2024

Salmon reference prices (in NOK) for 4-5kg superior salmon were 2.7% lower this quarter compared to Q4-2023. The price reduction was largely driven by increased supply, especially from Europe where supply increased by around 8%.

5% growth in 2025

The global supply is expected to increase around 4% in H1-2025. In H2-2025, the global supply is expected to grow around 6%, compared to H2-2024. For the full year 2025, the global supply is expected grow around 5%, excluding inventory movements.

The market dynamics are changing with a larger share of high-quality fish expected to come to market this spring. This shift will alter the dynamics slightly, but Bakkafrost has the flexibility and adaptability to adjust its approach to these conditions. Bakkafrost has a strong focus on ensuring a well -balanced flow to the different markets to increase diversification and mitigate market risk. Bakkafrost operates in the main salmon markets, Europe, the USA, and the Far East. Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, Bakkafrost has stopped all trading with Russia.

Carnegie ser på de fremlagte brede tollene som worst case scenario for lakseoppdretterne der altså Norge får toll på 15%, Chile 10% og EU (der mye lakseforedling gjøres) 20%.

Carnegie påpeker at USA står for 25% av det globale forbruket og skriver om de norske oppdretterne: "“Hvis vi skulle anta at prisene for 2025e når 6,3 euro/kg (en beskjeden ti prosent reduksjon i forhold til gjeldende Carnegie-estimat for 2025) med gjeldende valutakurs, ser vi 40-50 prosent nedside(!) til gjeldende EBIT-konsensus for 2025 i alle de større og mest likvide navnene (MOWI, SALM, BAKKA, LSG).

For GSF, som i tillegg til en høyere kostnadsbase har høy belåning, vil det meste av EBIT fordampe og nettoresultatet vil være negativt.

- Som om det ikke var bekymringsfullt nok, kan økte tollbarrierer også føre til høyere innsatskostnader for fôr, og dermed øke fôrkostnadene også på lengre sikt, sier Carnegie til iLaks.

Carnegie nedjusterer 12-måneders kursmål for de fleste selskapene i laksesektoren under meglerhusets dekning, som følge av lavere lakseprisestimater både på kort og lang sikt.

Samtidig oppjusterer meglerhuset kursmålet for Andfjord Salmon grunnet høyere volumer på lang sikt, og på Grieg Seafood ettersom meglerhuset nå legger til grunn en høyere sannsynlighet for salg av eiendeler i Norge, ifølge TDN.

ABG Sundal Collier nedjusterer kursmålet på Mowi til 225 kroner fra 266 kroner og gjentar kjøpsanbefalingen på aksjen, ifølge TDN.

Meglerhuset nedjusterer sitt driftsresultatestimat for 2025 med 19 prosent, hovedsakelig som følge av en lavere spotprisantagelse, noe som mer enn oppveier litt høyere volum og noe lavere kostnader drevet av bedre biologi og skalafordeler.

Basert på meglerhusets oppdaterte estimater handles Mowi til en P/E på 15 ganger i 2025, hvilket tilsvarer 10 prosent rabatt mot sektoren som handles til 16 gangeren.

Bakkafrost P/f kom med sitt Q1-2025 resultat 19 mai.


BAKKA: Strong biological performance - weaker prices

Børsmelding
19.05.2025

The Bakkafrost Group delivered a total operational EBIT of DKK 505 million (DKK 710 million) in Q1-2025.

(Figures in parenthesis refer to the same period last year unless otherwise specified)

The performance in Q1-2025 per region was as follows:

- Faroe Islands: Revenues of DKK 1 403 million (1 594 million), Operational EBIT of DKK 435 million (671
million)
- Scotland: Revenues of DKK 496 million (612 million), Operational EBIT of DKK 71 million (39 million)

Commenting on the result, CEO Regin Jacobsen said:

"Overall, we are satisfied with the results in this quarter. Our Faroese freshwater and marine operations delivered another quarter of strong biological performance, reflecting robust growth, effective sea lice management, and consistent harvesting of large, high-quality fish. The freshwater segment continues to excel, further improving our production efficiency with high-quality, large smolt, which positively impacts costs.

In Scotland, our strategic focus remains firmly on the successful transition to large, high-quality smolt at Applecross. We are steadily progressing in scaling up this production, which remains central to fundamentally transforming our Scottish farming operations and enhancing long-term sustainability and profitability.

The supply of whole salmon from Norway increased 38% in the quarter. This caused a significant drop in salmon prices during the first quarter. The Applecross and Skálavík hatcheries and the Havsbrún feed factory expansion are progressing according to plan. These projects remain critical to achieving our strategic objectives."

During Q1-2025, the FOF segment sourced 109 502 tonnes (136 874 tonnes) of raw material. The Operational EBIT margin was 13% (24%), and fish feed sales amounted to 31 338 tonnes (27 046 tonnes).

In Q1-2025, the Freshwater segments in the Faroe Islands and Scotland transferred a total of 3.8 million (3.7 million) smolts combined:

- Freshwater FO: 3.2 million (2.1 million),
- Freshwater SCT: 0.6 million (1.6 million).

In Q1-2025, the Freshwater FO segment made an operational EBIT per kg transferred smolt of DKK 42.11 (DKK 25.06), corresponding to NOK 65.75 (NOK 38.36). The Freshwater SCT segment made an operational EBIT per kg transferred smolt of DKK 12.33 (DKK -178.98), corresponding to NOK 19.26 (NOK -274.00).

The Farming segments achieved lower prices in Q1-2025 than in Q1-2024. The Farming segments had higher volumes in Q1 2025 compared to Q1 2024. In Q1 2025, the Farming SCT segment had incident-based costs of DKK 8 million (DKK 18 million).

The total combined harvest in Q1 2025 of the farming segments in the Faroe Islands and Scotland was 25,200 tonnes gutted weight (21,557 tgw):

- Farming FO: 18 914 tgw (14 294 tgw),
- Farming SCT: 6 286 tgw (7 263 tgw).

In Q1-2025, the Farming FO segment made an operational EBIT per kg of DKK 15.15 (DKK 33.03), corresponding to NOK 23.65 (NOK 50.56). The Farming SCT segment made an operational EBIT per kg of DKK 2.53 (DKK 3.35), corresponding to NOK 3.95 (NOK 5.13).

The Services segment made an operational EBIT per kg of DKK 1.51 (DKK 1.22), corresponding to NOK 2.35 (NOK 1.87). The operational EBIT margin for the segment was 17% (10%).

The Sales & Other segment had a revenue of DKK 2 962 million (2 850 million) and an operational EBIT margin of -1% (0%). The operational EBIT per kg was DKK 1.65 (DKK -0.11), corresponding to NOK 2.57 (NOK -0.16).

The performance related to the Faroe Islands and Scotland as a region can be found in the Appendix.

The long-term goal of the Board of Directors is that 30-50% of earnings per share shall be paid out as a dividend. Bakkafrost's financial position is strong, with a solid balance sheet, a competitive operation, and available credit facilities.

The Annual General Meeting convened on April 30, 2025, decided to pay out a dividend of DKK 8.44 (NOK 13.37) per share. The total dividend of DKK 501 million (NOK 781 million) will be paid out on or around May 21, 2025.

OUTLOOK AND OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE

Market

Supply increased in Q1-2025


The supply of salmon increased 5.3% in Q1-2025 compared to Q1-2024, incl. inventory movements. Without inventory movements, the supply increase was 8.4%, according to the latest estimate from Kontali Analyse.

Lower salmon prices in Q1-2025

Salmon reference prices (in NOK) for 4-5kg superior salmon were 18.1% lower this quarter compared to Q1 2024. The price reduction was largely driven by increased supply resulting from improved biology in Norway. Most of the other producing regions contributed to the supply growth, except Canada.

6-7% growth in 2025

The global supply is expected to increase around 7% in H1-2025. In H2-2025, the global supply is expected to grow around 6%, compared to H2-2024. For the full year 2025, the global supply is expected grow around 6-7%.

Overall, the salmon market has been affected by larger than expected supply. Improved biology in Norway has also led to lower share of production fish being sold to the market. These factors impacted the market dynamics in the quarter leading to lower salmon prices, compared to previous years.

Bakkafrost has a strong focus on ensuring a well-balanced flow to the different markets to increase diversification and mitigate market risk. Bakkafrost operates in the main salmon markets, Europe, the USA, and the Far East. Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, Bakkafrost has stopped all trading with Russia.

Farming

The biological performance in Q1-2025 in the Faroese farming operation continued showing strong performance. Harvest weights have been high and sea lice levels well under control. Feeding, growth and survivability rates have all have been high. These positive trends indicate strong future performance as the fish are expected to thrive and contribute significantly to the operation's success.

The Faroese freshwater operation is continuing to increase the production volume of large high-quality smolt. The capacity utilization is expected to continue growing, leading to increased production volume. The volume is projected to rise slightly in 2025, with smolt weights a bit higher than in 2024. The current hatchery capacity in the Faroes allows for an annual smolt production of 9 000 tonnes, equalling 18 million smolt of 500g. This will increase to 24 million smolt of 500g when the ongoing construction of the new hatchery in Skálavík will be finished late 2026. The construction of the hatchery progresses according to plan.

In Q1-2025, the average weight of transferred smolt in the Faroe Islands was 421g, which is 10% higher than in 2024.

The farming operation in Scotland has performed strongly in Q1-2025. Mortality levels are normally lower in the first quarter than the rest of the year. This has also been the case in this quarter. Overall, the health condition of the fish has been good. Sea lice levels have been managed well and average harvest weights have been exceptionally high.

As earlier announced, Bakkafrost is following a de-risking strategy for the Scottish marine farming in 2025, similar to 2024. Bakkafrost expects to harvest around 67% of the annual volume in H1-2025 with good average weights. Ahead of Q3, harvest weights will probably reduce as some sites are emptied to reduce risk.

During 2025, the biomass at sea will gradually change character, transitioning to be based on high-quality smolt. This strategic shift is expected to enhance overall fish health and growth rates, leading to a more robust and sustainable aquaculture environment.

In the Scottish freshwater operation, the main priority is to ensure a steadily growing output of large high-quality smolt from Applecross which is currently in the ramp-up phase to deliver fish above 200g in 2025. This is not a straight-line development, but a delicate and gradual process involving some level of risk which reduces as the operation is fine-tuned, and all procedures executed at least once. Production volume and smolt release will increase throughout the year and into 2026. With the new Applecross 5 module now in production, the production capacity is around 3,500 tonnes of smolt annually. This capacity will be utilised to make Bakkafrost self-sufficient with around 14 million high-quality smolt of 250g.

Another priority in 2025 is the completion of the Applecross phase 6 and 7, which will improve the biosecurity in the smolt production and add flexibility.

In Q1-2025, the average weight of transferred smolt from Applecross in Scotland was 232g, which is 80% higher than in Q1-2024. The average smolt weight for all of Bakkafrost's smolt release in Scotland in the quarter was 169g, which is 40% higher than in Q1-2024.

ABG Sundal Collier ser nedsiderisiko til konsensus blant lakseselskapene i andre kvartal 2025, og har samtidig nedjustert sine lakseprisanslag for andre halvår. Mowi trekkes frem som toppvalget i sektoren.

Det fremgår av en sektorrapport fra meglerhuset mandag, ifølge TDN.

For andre kvartal nedjusterer ABG sine driftsresultat-estimater med rundt 9 prosent, ettersom driftsresultat/kilo-marginene reduseres med rundt 2 kroner pr kilo, hovedsakelig drevet av lavere referansepriser, men motvirket av høyere volumer og bedre marginer i VAP. Basert på meglerhusets oppdaterte estimater, er ABG 17 prosent under FactSet-konsensus for andre kvartal i gjennomsnitt, og ser best risk/reward i Mowi.

"I tillegg har vi senket prisanslaget for andre halvår (tredje kvartal: 65 kroner pr kilo fra 67 kroner pr kilo, og fjerde kvartal: 75 kroner pr kilo fra 77 kroner pr kilo). Totalt sett er driftsresultat for regnskapsåret 2025 ned med 7 prosent", skriver ABG.

Basert på de oppdaterte estimatene er meglerhuset i gjennomsnitt 12 og 20 prosent under 2025-konsensus for henholdsvis driftsresultat og resultat pr aksje (EPS). ABG mener markedsforventningene ser for høye ut og ser betydelig nedsiderisiko til estimatene i de kommende månedene, i tillegg til de 29 prosent negative EPS-revisjonene til 2025-konsensus hittil i år.

"I tråd med sesongmessig høyere volumer, forventer vi også at spotprisene vil fortsette på lave nivåer, noe som ytterligere demper det kortsiktige sentimentet", skriver meglerhuset videre.

BAKKA: Preliminary results and profit warning for Q2-2025

Børsmelding
15.07.2025

Preliminary results of the unaudited consolidated accounts for Q2-2025 indicate a lower-than-expected operational EBIT for the Bakkafrost Group. The preliminary results indicate an operational EBIT of around 65 mDKK for the Group and the following results per segment:

Segment: (mDKK)
FOF: 89
Freshwater FO: 85
Freshwater SCT: -72 (exceptional mortality and write-down cost of 52 mDKK)
Farming FO: 4
Farming SCT: -127 (exceptional mortality and write-down cost of 38 mDKK)
Services: 17
Sales & Other: 97

Weak salmon prices in the quarter harmed the overall results. In the Faroes, biological performance was strong in the quarter, while the Scottish farming and freshwater segments had some challenges with diseases, which continued into July. Consequently, exceptional mortality costs of 93 mDKK have been booked in the Scottish farming and freshwater segments, including a write-down of mortality in July related to the same disease events.

The full Q2-2025 report will be released on 26.08.2025 at 06:00 CET.

Bakkafrost falt 16,1 prosent onsdag etter at selskapet tirsdag etter børsens stengetid varslet et lavere enn ventet resultat for andre kvartal 2025, jf. OldNick #35105.

Foreløpige tall indikerer at selskapet oppnådde et operasjonelt driftsresultat på 65 millioner danske kroner i kvartalet, noe som ifølge ABG Sundal Collier er 76 prosent lavere enn konsensus.

Samlet sett rapporterte selskapet et tap på 199 millioner danske kroner fra Skottland. Dette er omtrent dobbelt så stort som man kunne forvente gitt de seneste lakseprisene, og skyldes dødelighetskostnader og nedskrivninger, ifølge Arctic Securities.

"Svake resultater fra særlig Skottland, men også Færøyene leverer klart svakere enn ventet. Gitt at vi kjenner slakteprofilen fra den seneste kvartalsoppdateringen, virker det som kostnadene har vært problemet for Bakkafrost", skriver Arctic ifølge TDN.

Utviklingen vil øke risikopersepsjonen og stiller spørsmål ved lønnsomheten for Skottland-segmentet, ifølge ABG Sundal Collier. I tillegg peker tilnærmet nullresultat på Færøyene på fortsatt høyt kostnadsnivå i påvente av høyere volum, ifølge ABG.

Det vil nok komme flere nedjusteringer de nærmeste dagene...

BAKKA: Q3-2025 - Record biology in the Faroes drives lower costs - a strong foundation for sustainable growth

Børsmelding
04.11.2025

The Bakkafrost Group delivered a total operational EBIT of DKK 22 million (DKK 173 million) in Q3-2025.

(Figures in parenthesis refer to the same period last year unless otherwise specified)

The performance in Q3 2025 per region was as follows:

- Faroe Islands: Revenues of DKK 1 405 million (1 420 million)
-- Operational EBIT of DKK 227 million (310 million)
- Scotland: Revenues of DKK 282 million (317 million)
-- Operational EBIT of DKK -205 million (-138 million)

Commenting on the result, CEO Regin Jacobsen said:

"We are not satisfied with the financial results in this quarter, which were impacted by weak market prices and continued high global supply.

However, we are very pleased with the exceptionally strong biological performance in the Faroe Islands. Our farming operations delivered record survival, strong growth, and the best biological results ever achieved in Bakkafrost's history. Importantly, farming costs in the Faroe Islands continue to decline - down 12% year-on-year in Q2 and down a further 14% in Q3 - reflecting the impact of excellent biology, efficient farming, and disciplined operations.

In Scotland, performance was stable at most farming sites in the early part of the quarter but deteriorated following a disease outbreak at Portree, which had a notable impact on results. At the same time, the Applecross hatchery has made solid progress under its new management team, with operations stabilising and supporting the continued ramp-up of large, high-quality smolt production.

Looking ahead, we expect the market situation to gradually improve as global supply growth slows and demand for high-quality salmon remains firm. This should support higher price levels through the winter and into 2026.

Despite financial headwinds this quarter, the strong biological foundation across the Group positions Bakkafrost well for the future. Our priorities remain unchanged - to strengthen biological control, maintain cost discipline, and deliver sustainable long-term value through operational excellence."

Bakkafrost med kraftig resultatløft

Inntektene kom inn under konsensus for Bakkafrost, mens resultat før skatt ble langt høyere enn ventet


Bendik H. Aurdal, FA.no
09.02.2026

Bakkafrost leverte et operasjonelt driftsresultat på DKK 295 mill. i Q4-2025, opp fra DKK 280 mill. i samme periode året før.

Driftsinntektene endte på DKK 1 847 mill., mot DKK 1 470 mill. året før.

Operasjonelt leverte konsernet en solid prestasjon i fjerde kvartal, drevet av sterk biologisk utvikling på Færøyene, der biomassen nådde et rekordhøyt nivå, sier konsernsjef Regin Jacobsen.

Han peker på at dette har bidratt til bedre kostnadseffektivitet og økt operasjonell robusthet, som fortsatt er et hovedfokus for konsernet.

Inntektene under konsensus

Samtidig var de finansielle resultatene svakere enn ønsket.

De finansielle resultatene i fjerde kvartal var ikke tilfredsstillende. De ble påvirket av fortsatt høy global tilbudsvekst av laks, som presset markedsprisene gjennom store deler av kvartalet, sier Jacobsen.

På forhånd var det ventet driftsinntekter på DKK 2 050 mill. og et operasjonelt driftsresultat på DKK 310 mill., ifølge selskapets konsensus. Videre var resultat før skatt ventet til DKK 217 mill. og resultat etter skatt til DKK 173 mill. kroner.

Pareto Securities peker på at operasjonell EBIT på DKK 295 mill. var på linje med både selskapets konsensus og Paretos egne anslag. Meglerhuset mener samtidig at utbytteforslaget på 3.45 kroner per aksje er lavere enn konsensus. Pareto viser også til rekordhøy biomasse inn i 2026 og lavere dødelighet i Skottland de siste månedene, og venter en nøytral kursreaksjon.

I Skottland ble driften i tillegg rammet av tømming og slakting av Portree-lokaliteten i oktober etter den ekstraordinære dødelighetshendelsen som tidligere ble omtalt i Q3-rapporten.

Store regionale forskjeller

På Færøyene økte driftsinntektene til DKK 1 544 mill. i kvartalet, opp fra DKK 1 184 mill. året før. Det operative driftsresultatet endte på DKK 392 mill., opp fra DKK 310 mill.

I Skottland var bildet motsatt. Driftsinntektene økte til DKK 303 mill. fra 286 mill. kroner, men det operative driftsresultatet var - DKK 97 mill., mot -DKK 31 mill. året før.

Totalt slaktet konsernet 27 891 tonn sløyd vekt i kvartalet, opp fra 20 478 tonn i Q4-2024.
