Statement of Objections from the European Commission
The European Commission Directorate-General
Competition ("the Commission") has today sent a Statement of
Objections to SalMar ASA ("SalMar") and other producers of farmed
Norwegian salmon concerning breach of EU competition rules. For
SalMar, the case commenced upon the Commission's inspection at
Scottish Sea Farms Ltd. 19 February 2019, which has previously been
informed. SalMar has cooperated with the Commission throughout the
entire case.
The Commission's preliminary assessment is that
there may have occurred a breach of EU competition law in the
period 2011-2019, related to spot sales into the EU of fresh, whole
salmon farmed in Norway. The Commission has not concluded in the
case and the sending of a Statement of Objections does not preempt
the outcome of the investigation.
SalMar strongly disagrees with the Commission's
preliminary assessment and will account for SalMar's view in a
thorough reply to the Commission.
The information in this announcement is
considered inside information pursuant to the Market Abuse
Regulation article 7 and is subject to disclosure pursuant to the
Norwegian Securities Trading Act section 5-12.
This stock exchange announcement was published
by Håkon Husby, Head of Investor Relations at SalMar ASA, on 25
January 2024 at 12:08 CET.
