Mowi ASA (MOWI.OL) Q2 2024 Results: Strong Operational Performance Amidst Market Headwinds

Executive Summary

Mowi ASA reported solid Q2 2024 results, highlighted by operational revenues of EUR 1.34 billion and an operational profit of EUR 230 million, buoyed by record high harvest volumes of 110,500 tonnes. However, challenges in pricing, particularly in the Americas, dampened margins. Management emphasized the commitment to maintaining cost leadership and reiterated guidance to achieve 500,000 tonnes of farming volume by year-end, reflecting a 5.3% YoY growth. Despite political challenges in Canada affecting some operations, the company continues to strengthen its market position, bolstered by healthy biomass levels and improved cost controls.
