NEWSFLASH | 26 JUN 2026

Chilean biomass 5.5% lower Y/Y per end of May

Chilean Atlantic salmon harvest fell 3.6%Y/Y in May and biomass continue to trend lower, now sitting at -5.5% Y/Y (vs -4.9%

in April). Biomass production to continue to track below last year’s prints, now 7% lower Y/Y. The number of ,sh increased

M/M on higher stocking and is now down 0.8% Y/Y. LTM smolt stocking sits 3.1% higher Y/Y, but 25G is however down 4%

Y/Y in number. PAS estimates +1.6% Chilean growth in 2026, while YTD harvest growth is now +11.9% (vs +16% in April).

This print con,rms our view that Chile will now enter a period of negative growth, which all else equal should be viewed as

positive read-across for the Norwegian names. Slides attached.

Slowing biomass growth should result in slowing Chilean harvest in the coming months

• Biomass in sea -5.5% Y/Y

• Number of individuals in sea -0.8%

• LTM smolt stocking +3.1% Y/Y, while number of 25G sh in sea is down 4% Y/Y

Chilean biomass of Atlantic salmon in sea ~5.5% lower Y/Y and biomass production still lagging 2025
