Grieg Seafood ASA: Successful placement of perpetual green hybrid bond

Grieg Seafood ASA (“the “Company”) has successfully completed a new perpetual green hybrid bond issue of NOK 2,000m with first call date after 4 years and a coupon of 3 months NIBOR + 575bps. The transaction attracted strong interest.

Net proceeds from the bond issue will be used for green projects as further defined by the Green Bond Framework, including by way of refinancing existing debt originally incurred to finance such green projects. The hybrid bond will be accounted for as equity in the balance sheet and constitute subordinated obligations for the Company.

The hybrid bond strengthens Grieg Seafood’s liquidity, equity, and financial flexibility to pursue its ambitions for further investments and development of the Norwegian fish farming assets while protecting the values and optionality in the Canadian asset base.

Both Rogaland and Finnmark entered 2025 close to MAB capacity, with combined harvest volumes expected to increase by 13% from 2024 to 2025. The main priority is to restore profitability in Finnmark, and to improve profitability towards the Rogaland benchmark levels supported by increased post-smolt capacity.

Arctic Securities, DNB Markets and Nordea acted as joint bookrunners, and DNB Markets and Nordea as green bond advisors, in connection with the placement of the new hybrid bond issue.

An application will be made for the bonds to be listed on Oslo Stock Exchange.
