   Craig Anderson, CEO, said: 
 
   "The business has delivered strong results in the first half of the year 
and we remain committed  to responsible business growth through our 
well-defined strategy.  Priorities are: to invest in our operations, 
enhance operating efficiencies and maximise value; further strengthen 
the position of our brands; and increase exposure into key export 
markets, which now account for 67% of sales. 
 
   "In the first half of the year, we delivered record revenues of 
GBP111.8m, despite a softening in market conditions and contending with 
localised operational and biological events that impacted production in 
Q2. Over the long-term, the aim remains to deliver steady and 
sustainable growth.  We remain on track to achieve our target volume of 
33,000 tonnes by the year-end and 45,000 tonnes by 2025 with planning 
consent being obtained for two sites. 
 
   "Our ongoing investment strategy continues to demonstrate results and 
support increased production. As we achieve greater scale, we continue 
to make significant investments in site development, operational 
capacity, biological innovations and infrastructure.  The full benefit 
of this investment cycle will be realised going forward, ensuring we 
take advantage of an increasing share of global market potential as the 
demand for our Scottish salmon continues to grow."
