Lerøy’s NOK 500 million green bond loan approved
The Norwegian Financial Supervisory Authority has approved the listing of a green bond loan of NOK 500 million (£38m) issued by Lerøy Seafood Group, according to a stock exchange announcement from Lerøy this week.
The prospectus concerns the listing of the company’s senior unsecured green bonds on the Oslo Stock Exchange, and was approved by the Norwegian Financial Supervisory Authority on 6 February 2026.
The NOK 500 million bond was issued on October 1, 2025. According to the company, the listing will facilitate trading in the secondary market.
Ten days ago the Lerøy Seafood Group set out a bold financial strategy for the next five years, which includes achieving revenues of NOK 50 billion (almost £4bn) by the end of 2030.
The group, which owns a half share in Scottish Sea Farms, said it was building on a fully integrated seafood value chain, strengthened biological performance and a disciplined investment programme.
“Lerøy enters a new phase focused on scalable growth, structural cost reductions and improved capital efficiency,” the group declared.
Meanwhile, in a separate Stock Exchange announcement the Norwegian cod farmer KIME Akva AS completed an issue in which existing shareholders are contributing NOK 93 million (£7.2m) in new capital to the company. The issue was fully subscribed, the company announced.
The capital will be used, among other things, for further development of the company’s operations, including the establishment of new locations, increased hatchery production and the build-up of biomass in 2026 and 2027.
The company says it aims to become a “cost leader” in cod farming.
