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."

OUTLOOK AND OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE

Market

Substantially increased supply in Q3 2025

The supply of salmon increased 11.9% in Q3 2025 compared to Q3 2024, incl.
inventory movements. Without inventory movements, the supply increase was 12.2%,
according to the latest estimate from Kontali Analyse.

Lower salmon prices in Q3 2025

Salmon reference prices (in NOK) for 4-5kg superior salmon were 13.1% lower this
quarter compared to Q3 2024. The price reduction was driven by substantial
increase in supply from several regions, most dominantly from Norway but also
from Chile.

No growth in Q4 2025

In Q4 2025, the global supply is expected to be on the same level as in Q4 2024,
excluding inventory movements. In H2 2025, the global supply is expected grow
around 6%, compared to Q3 2024. For the full year 2025, the global supply is
expected grow around 9%, excluding inventory movements, and in H1 2026 the
global supply is expected to on the same level as H1 2025.

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.

Operations

Farming Faroe Islands

The Faroese farming operation continues on a very strong trajectory, underpinned
by exceptional biological performance. In Q3 2025, biology reached one of the
best positions ever recorded, supported by the consistent delivery of large,
high-quality smolt. The strong smolt quality is one of the drivers for the
achieved growth rates, record-high feeding volumes, and exceptionally low
mortality across sites. Sea lice levels remain well controlled through the
continued success of the dual-freshwater treatment strategy. The overall
biological performance has also translated into further improvements in the
quality of the harvested fish, which continues to set new benchmarks. All these
biological achievements - very strong growth, robust fish health, and high smolt
quality - combined with increased harvest volumes, shorter cycle times of
farming sites and lower smolt and feed costs, have driven further reductions in
farming costs.

Freshwater Faroe Islands

The Faroese freshwater operation continues its strong development, driven by
consistent improvements in smolt quality, robustness, and production efficiency.
Output of large, high-quality smolt remains on an upward trend, supporting
sustainable volume growth and long-term biological strength across the value
chain. The enhanced robustness of smolt is reflected in exceptionally low
accumulated mortality during the first 90 days post transfer - among the lowest
levels ever recorded. This confirms the effectiveness of Bakkafrost's large
-smolt strategy and the continued strengthening of biological performance.
Capacity utilisation continues to increase, supporting higher production volumes
and further cost efficiencies. The average weight of transferred smolt in Q3
2025 was 427g, which is 1% higher than in Q3 2024.

Current hatchery capacity enables annual production of 9,000 tonnes, equivalent
to about 18 million smolt of 500g. The new hatchery in Skálavík remains on
schedule for completion in late 2026, which will raise total capacity to
approximately 24.4 million smolt. Operations are expected to commence in Q2
2026.

Farming Scotland

The overall biological performance in the Scotland was good during Q3 2025, with
low mortality and good growth at most marine sites through July and August.
However, in September, conditions changed significantly following a disease
outbreak at the Portree farming site caused by Pasteurella bacteria. This
resulted in a sharp increase in exceptional mortality at the site, and some
harvests were advanced to mitigate further biological risks. Despite this
incident, the overall performance across the Scottish operation remained stable.
Bakkafrost maintains its 2025 harvest guidance of 22,000  tonnes, supported by
strong results from other farming areas. However, the increased mortality at
Portree is expected to have a negative impact on Scottish harvest volumes in
2026. During 2025 and into 2026, the biomass at sea will gradually change
character, transitioning to be based on large and 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.

Freshwater Scotland

The Scottish freshwater operation continues its ramp-up, with Applecross firmly
established as the core of Bakkafrost's large-smolt strategy in Scotland, having
the capacity to produce 3,500 tonnes of high-quality large smolt. The smolt
affected by the furunculosis incident in Q2 are now out of Applecross, and
production has since normalised with stable and improving biological
performance. Under the leadership of the Faroese Group Freshwater management
team, the production plan for Applecross has been revised to enhance utilisation
and biological efficiency. In contrast to the previously announced 200g smolt,
Applecross will also produce larger smolt. Hence, the individual batches will be
ranging from 200g to 400g. This adjustment allows for greater flexibility in
production planning, better utilisation of capacity, and improved biological
outcomes. Applecross has also transitioned to operate as a stand-alone facility,
no longer receiving inputs from external hatcheries. This marks a significant
step in improving biosecurity and ensuring consistent smolt quality.

Services

The smolt transfer system from Applecross has undergone a major upgrade, with
the FSV Bakkanes rebuilt to handle smolt transfers, now operating similarly to
its highly successful rebuild of the sister vessel Martin in the Faroe Islands.
The upgraded system represents a major step forward in ensuring safe and
efficient smolt transfers, reducing stress and mortality, and strengthening
operational reliability across the Scottish farming sites. Together, these
initiatives represent a significant advancement in the Scottish freshwater
platform, ensuring it supports a robust, efficient, and sustainable farming
operation going forward.

In Q3 2025, the average weight of transferred smolt from Applecross in Scotland
was 229, which is 161% higher than in Q3 2024. The average smolt weight for all
Bakkafrost's smolt release in Scotland in the quarter was 155g, which is 80%
higher than in Q3 2024.

Smolt transfer

Bakkafrost's expected smolt transfer in 2026 in the Faroe Islands is around 20.0
million smolts with an average weight of around 440g. In Scotland, the smolt
transfer in 2026 is expected to be around 10.0 million smolt with an average
weight of 179g. This includes internally produced smolt as well as externally
sourced. The number and average weight of smolts transferred are key elements of
predicting Bakkafrost's future production.

Bakkafrost expects to harvest a total of around 104,000 tonnes gutted weight in
2025. 82,000 tonnes are expected to be harvested in the Faroe Island and 22,000
tonnes in Scotland.

In 2026, Bakkafrost expects to harvest around 92,000 tonnes gutted weight in the
Faroe Islands and around 20,000 tonnes in Scotland, giving at total of around
112,000 tonnes gutted weight. The quarterly harvest profile is outlined in in
the table below. Biological, environmental and market conditions can affect the
expected harvest profile.

 Expected harvest profile in 2026 as a % of total harvest pr. region:

Region  Q1   Q2   Q3   Q4
FO      24%  24%  25%  28%
SCT     30%  14%  18%  38%

The estimates for harvest volumes and smolt transfers in both geographies are
dependent on biological development.

Sales & VAP (Value added products)

Bakkafrost's highly flexible value chain includes state-of-the-art VAP
processing capacity, which enables the company to adapt effectively to rapidly
changing market situations.

As a result of changes in the Faroese revenue tax, Bakkafrost has adjusted the
strategy for contracted VAP (Value-Added Products) to reduce contract exposure.

For 2026, Bakkafrost intends to sign contracts covering around 15-20% of the
expected harvest volumes in the Faroe Islands and Scotland combined.

FOF (Fishmeal, oil and feed)

The outlook of fishmeal and fish oil production is dependent on the availability
of raw materials.

The ICES 2026 recommendation for blue whiting is 851 thousand tonnes, which
represents a 41.2% decrease from the recommendation for 2025.

In 2026 Bakkafrost expects lower production volumes of fishmeal and fish oil as
in 2025.

Bakkafrost expects the feed production at Havsbrún to be around 155,000 tonnes
in 2026. Close to all of this will be sold internally to Bakkafrost's Faroese
and Scottish Farming segments.

Investments

On the Capital Markets Day on 17-18 June 2025, Bakkafrost announced a 5.0bn DKK
investment plan for 2026-2030. The main purpose is to improve efficiency, reduce
biological risk and enable continued sustainable growth in the Faroe Islands and
Scotland.

The investments in the Faroe Islands will increase the annual smolt production
capacity to 24.4 million smolt of 500g. The feed production capacity and
flexibility are also increased to further improve R&D capabilities and meet the
growing demand for feed as harvest volumes increase in the Faroe Islands and
Scotland. Also, investments in new farming sites and new farming technology are
included, as well as investments to improve harvest capacity and flexibility
with Live Fish Holding Tanks.

In Scotland, planned investments include site expansions and optimisation as
well as building a new harvest and processing facility to accommodate the
growing harvest volume.

As a shared service to the Group, the investment plan includes building 2 new
dual-freshwater treatment vessels in the FSV segment.

Incorporated into the investment plan is also 245mDKK earmarked to energy
transition, spread across the value chain.

With the investment plan, Bakkafrost expects to sustainably grow the total
annual harvest volumes to 162,000 tonnes in 2030.

Since the announcement of the 2026-2030 investment plan on the CMD in 2025,
Bakkafrost has decided to let some of the investments planned for 2025 rollover
into 2026 due to the weak market outlook for 2025. Consequently, the timing of
other investments in the announced 2026-2030 plan have been adjusted.

Financial

The global salmon product market's long-term balance is likely to favour
Bakkafrost. Bakkafrost has a long value chain and a cost-efficient production of
high-quality salmon products and will likely maintain financial flexibility
going forward.

In March 2022, Bakkafrost secured a 700 mEUR sustainability-linked credit
facility (expandable by 150 mEUR) with a 5-year term and 2-year extension
options which have been executed. This facility, along with Bakkafrost's strong
equity ratio, bolsters the Group's financial strength for organic growth and
cost reduction in Scotland, while also facilitating M&A and future organic
growth opportunities, and upholding an unchanged dividend policy.
