29 October 2021 - Aker BioMarine ASA (“Aker BioMarine” or “the company”) reports
revenues of USD 62.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA of USD 14.6 million in the
third quarter 2021.

“In the quarter, we delivered revenues and earnings as expected and we reiterate
our full-year guidance. Sales of Qrill and our private label brand in the US
were at a good level, while sales of the krill oil brand Superba was low also in
this quarter. Powerful growth initiatives are now implemented, and we target
higher sales already in the next quarter. We had a positive end to the 2021
krill harvesting season in Antarctica and we look forward to the new one that
starts late November” said Matts Johansen, CEO of Aker BioMarine.


Third quarter highlights:
- Revenues of USD 62.0 million (compared to USD 70.2 million in the same period
last year)

- Adjusted EBITDA of USD 14.6 million (USD 26.8 million), with 24% (38%)
Adjusted EBITDA margin in the quarter. Adj. EBITDA included a net gain of USD
2.45 million from sale of fuel option contracts

- Sales in Ingredients declined 21% in the quarter versus same period last year.
Qrill sales were down 3%, while Superba sales were 42% below same period last
year. A growth plan for Superba is being implemented with several near-term
initiatives, including new sales strategies and organization, new claims and new
product offerings

- The market reach for Kori, our retail brand in the US, further increased with
two large retailers moving to full distribution in stores in the first quarter
2022

- Harvesting volumes of 7,195 MT in the quarter compared to 8,727 MT in the same
period last year

- A new record-quarter at the Houston facility with production increasing 24%
from same period last year with all-time-low unit cost

- Refinancing structure agreed with a three-bank syndicate. Improved terms and
conditions, as well as increased flexibility related to covenants and dividends


Outlook:
Aker BioMarine reiterates the guiding for 2021 with expected sales at somewhat
below last year’s revenue and with an expected adjusted EBITDA margin of 15-17%.
The company still expects harvesting volume for the year to be in the range of
40,000 – 45,000 MT, depending on harvesting conditions in the fourth quarter.
