(Bergen, 4 March 2025) Mowi has today announced that it is initiating a strategic review of its integrated Feed division. The review will assess all available options, including a sale.
In 2024, the Feed division generated operating revenues of EUR 1,122 million and Operational EBITDA of EUR 62 million. Its core assets include feed mills in Norway and Scotland with production capacity of 460,000 tonnes(1) and 240,000 tonnes respectively, i.e. combined capacity of 700,000 tonnes. These plants supplied practically all of the feed requirements of Mowi’s European salmon farming operations last year. In total, Mowi’s Feed division employs 140 FTEs.
“In just a few years Mowi has grown from a 400,000 tonnes farmer to approaching a 600,000 tonne farmer with production in seven countries and 11 farming regions with all the complexity that entails. Mowi also has an extensive downstream business in 26 countries. In order to streamline our operations, we therefore feel the time is ripe to assess how our Feed division will be organised in the future,” said Ivan Vindheim, Mowi CEO.
Mowi has engaged Arctic Securities to assist with the review. While the company will now initiate a structured process, there is no certainty as to whether any transaction will arise, nor as to the terms thereof.
Mowi will provide further updates as appropriate but does not intend to comment further on the process unless and until a definitive agreement is reached or the process is terminated.
(1) Including an ongoing 60,000 tonnes capacity expansion expected to be fully operational by Q2 2026
