The latest update is out from Grieg Seafood ASA ( (GRGSF) ).

Grieg Seafood ASA announced a transformation program to focus on profitable growth in Norway while significantly reducing growth ambitions and investment levels in Canada. This strategic shift aims to strengthen the company’s financial and organizational foundation, with the issuance of a hybrid bond and sale-leaseback agreements as key financial initiatives. The company anticipates a 14% growth in harvest volumes in Norway by 2025, but a 5% decline in Canada due to reduced growth outlooks. Recognizing impairments of NOK 1.7 billion related to Canadian operations, Grieg Seafood is taking steps to enhance its financial flexibility and operational efficiency, despite facing an operational EBIT loss of NOK 74 million in Q4 2023.
