The Board of Directors of Mowi ASA (the "Company") has resolved to offer all permanent employees in the Company and its Norwegian, Scottish and Canadian subsidiaries the opportunity to purchase shares in the Company at a discounted price.

To comply with its obligation in relation to the acceptances received, the Company has on 1 December 2021 purchased 123,804 shares in the market at an average price of NOK 207.473. In total 123,804 shares will be sold to the employees having accepted to participate in the share program on the terms referred to above.
