Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement by Andfjord Salmon AS ("Andfjord Salmon" or the "Company") on 26 June 2023 regarding the contemplated private placement of new shares (the "Offer Shares"). The Company hereby announces that it has allocated 15,974,026 Offer Shares at a subscription price of NOK 38.50 per share, raising gross proceeds of approximately NOK 615 million (the "Private Placement").

Oslo 27 June 2023:

The Company hereby announces that it has allocated 15,974,026 Offer Shares at a subscription price of NOK 38.50 per share, raising gross proceeds of approximately NOK 615 million (the "Private Placement"). ABG Sundal Collier ASA, Arctic Securities and SpareBank 1 Markets are acting as Joint Bookrunners (the "Joint Bookrunners") in connection with the Private Placement.

The net proceeds from the Private Placement will be used to expand the Company's production capacity at Kvalnes and for general corporate purposes. The following primary insiders were allocated Offer Shares at the Offer Price:

* Jerónimo Martins Agro-Alimentar, S.A., represented on the board of directors by Antonio Serrano, was allocated 10,000,000 Offer Shares

* Eidsfjord Sjøfarm AS, represented on the board of directors by Knut Holmøy, was allocated 2,077,922 Offer Shares

* Andfjord Holding AS, represented on the board of directors by Roy Bernt Pettersen, was allocated 244,155 Offer Shares

* UFI AS represented on the board of directors by Kim Strandenæs, was allocated 192,207 Offer Shares

* Skagerak Vekst AS represented on the board of directors by Tore Traaseth, was allocated 135,065 Offer Shares

The Offer Shares were allocated in two tranches as follows: one tranche with 5,922,078 Offer Shares ("Tranche 1") and a second tranche with 10,051,948 Offer

Shares ("Tranche 2").

Tranche 1 is expected to be settled on a delivery versus payment basis on or about 29 June 2023 by delivery of existing and unencumbered shares in the Company that are already listed on Euronext Growth Oslo pursuant to a share lending agreement (the "Share Lending Agreement") entered into between the Company, Andfjord Holding AS, Skagerak Vekst AS and the Managers. The new shares in Tranche 1 were resolved issued by the Company's board of directors pursuant to the board authorisation (the "Board Authorisation") granted by the annual general meeting of the Company held on 12 May 2023, and will be used to settle the share loan pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement.

Tranche 2 is expected to be settled on or about 11 July 2023. Issuance of new shares in Tranche 2 is subject to approval by the extraordinary general meeting of the Company (the "EGM") expected to be held on or about 5 July 2023.

The Offer Shares allocated to applicants in Tranche 1 will be tradable upon allocation and Offer Shares allocated in Tranche 2 will be tradable after the share capital increase pertaining to Tranche 2 has been registered with the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises (the "NRBE"). Jerónimo Martins will receive their allocation in Tranche 2.

Completion of Tranche 2 is subject a resolution by the EGM to issue the Offer Shares in Tranche 2. Further, completion of the Private Placement is subject to registration of the share capital increase in the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises and the Offer Shares being validly issued and registered with the Norwegian Central Securities Depository (VPS). Completion of Tranche 1 is not conditional upon completion of Tranche 2. The settlement of Offer Shares under

Tranche 1 will remain final and binding and cannot be revoked, cancelled or terminated by the respective applicants if Tranche 2 is not completed.

Following registration of the new share capital pertaining to the Private Placement (i.e. both Tranche 1 and Tranche 2), the Company will have a share capital of NOK 57,012,953 divided into 57,012,953 shares, each with a par value of NOK 1.00.

The Private Placement involves that the shareholders' preferential rights to subscribe for and be allocated the Offer Shares are set aside. The Board has considered the structure of the equity raise in light of the equal treatment obligations under the Norwegian Private Limited Companies Act, the rules on equal treatment under Euronext Oslo Rule Book Part II and the Oslo Stock Exchange's Guidelines on the rule of equal treatment. The Board is of the view that it is in the common interest of the Company and its shareholders to raise equity through the Private Placement. The Private Placement enables the Company to secure equity financing to expand the Company's production capacity at Kvalnes, shortly after securing commitment for a bank financing. Further, the Private Placement entails reduced execution and completion risk and allows for the Company to utilize current market conditions and raise capital more quickly, at a lower discount compared to a rights issue and without the underwriting commissions normally seen with rights offerings. Further, the Subsequent Offering (as defined below), if implemented, will secure that eligible shareholders will receive the opportunity to subscribe for new shares at the same subscription price as that applied in the Private Placement.

On this basis the Board has considered the Private Placement to be in the common interest of the Company and its shareholders.

The Company intends to carry out a subsequent offering (the "Subsequent Offering") with non-tradeable subscription rights of up to 2,077,923 new shares in the Company which, subject to applicable securities law, will be directed towards existing shareholders in the Company as of 26 June 2023 (as registered in the VPS two trading days thereafter), who (i) were not allocated Offer Shares in the Private Placement, and (ii) are not resident in a jurisdiction where such offering would be unlawful or, would (in jurisdictions other than Norway) require any prospectus, filing, registration or similar action. Whether or not such subsequent offering will ultimately take place, will depend inter alia on the development of the price of the shares in the Company after completion of the Private Placement. Further, the Subsequent Offering is subject to, inter alia, completion of the Private Placement, approval by the board of directors and the EGM, and the publication of an offering prospectus. Advokatfirmaet Schjødt AS is acting as legal advisor to the Company in connection with the Private Placement.
