24 Appendix A

Fish farming companies are required to report the fair value of theirbiological assets at each reporting period in accordance with IFRS 13 &IAS 41.

Mature biological assets (ready to be sold) are reported in the B.S. ascurrent assets while immature biological assets are presented as non-current assets.

The fair value of mature biological assets is calculated as volume (in kg)x market price at the end of the reporting period (exit price of theprincipal market less costs to sell).

Key drivers include the quantity and size distribution of biologicalassets as well as the market price at the time of the valuation.

Sales in the I.S. are distinguished between biological and non-biological. Biological sales represent sales of fish and juveniles of ownproduction. Non-biological sales represent sales of fish/juveniles asmerchandise, sales of fish feed, equipment and other products.

The effect from the measurement of biological assets at fair value isderived by the following formula :

Fair value of biological assets at the end of the period(-) Purchases of biological assets(-) Fair value of biological assets at the beginning of the period= Effect of measurement of biological assets at fair value
