Extension of the salmon cycle, this cycle looks set to last an unprecedented 8 years…

3 year cycles replaced by a 8 year cycle?

Structural trends favour seafood…..and poultry

Aquaculture and poultry estimated to contribute 2/3 of volume growth

between 2014-2024

But salmon unlikely to spearhead growth… At least over the next two years…

Salmon only

account for 4% of

aquaculture

volume

Top 5 nations salmon producers have hardly grown since 2012

Supply decline from Chile and Norway trigger the largest negative supply shock in history

6% supply contraction and -140kt dwarfs 2010’s 3.7% and -54kt drop following

the ISA crisis in Chile

Chile - Algae bloom, or ‘the red tide’ is toxic for many marine animals

Page 12: Seafood Sector Presentation April 2016fishpool.eu/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Alexander-Aukner.pdf · 2016-04-26 · Seafood weekly 22 April 2016 Source: FHL/NOS, DNB Markets How high

Chile volumes collapsing, lost 120kt or 15% of individuals due to algae…

15% of individuals lost, equivalent to 120kt of lost output in 2016-17e

Page 13: Seafood Sector Presentation April 2016fishpool.eu/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Alexander-Aukner.pdf · 2016-04-26 · Seafood weekly 22 April 2016 Source: FHL/NOS, DNB Markets How high

Current losses amount to 120kt, but could more than double if region XI is affected

Region X loss of 118kt, but another 179kt if region XI is hit equally hard...

Chile - Smolt release was dropping sharply even before the algae bloom

Looking at the past three months, smolt releases for atlantics and other species

have taken a nose dive, down 16–28% and 15–39%, respectively

Chile, what’s next???

Who has the cash to put more fish into the sea?

If they have cash, do they even want to put more fish into the sea?

Record high prices, but no new framework to safeguard against

another collapse… What to do….?

The old proverb: One bird in your hand is better than 10 on the roof…

Norway - Decline in 2016 is the price to pay for eating into the inventory

Record small harvest size means fewer individuals reach full size, cutting output potential

Did we ‘overharvest’ 25million individuals? No wonder 2016 supply is tight!

A simple first in, first out model suggest 9% volume decline from Norway in 2016…

Fishpool forward contracts – Settling down at record high levels.

Source: Fishpool, DNB Markets

Note: From 2015, Fishpool forward prices include a trading/exporter

margin of NOK0.75/kg. In order to get the old NOS price delivered Oslo,

NOK0.75/kg must be deducted from the forward price. In order to get

price back to farmer, one must deduct another NOK0.5-1.0/kg for freight

cost. Hence a forward price of NOK40/kg corresponds to a price back to

farmer of NOK38.25-38.75/kg

Norway - New technology and green licenses to ensure growth is restored after 2017: New growth - Green licenses and R&D licenses take effect from late 2017, bringing growth back into positive territory.

Old growth - With the large number and wide variety of sea-lice combating technologies coming on stream, we expect the

challenges with sea-lice to be contained in 2–3 years, allowing growth from regular licenses in Norway to recover.

Chile – Revamp of the regularly system upcoming, with the support of large industry

players should spark a fresh start in Chile as: Biomass drops;

New vaccines come on stream;

New regulations reduce uncertainty

This could mean Chilean volume growth in 2018-2019?

But growth pains not permanent!

56kt of planned land based farming projects…

56kt of planned capacity, but most of the projects are not fully financed and volumes are

unlikely to hit the market until 2017–2020, if they receive financing. To put the volumes into

context, 56kt would represent 2.6% of our 2016 global supply forecast of 2,070kt (HOG)
