Additional information
Operational EBIT for the Group was approximately NOK 850 million in Q4 2015 (NOK 1,032 million in Q4 2014). Start-up costs at the Rosyth processing plant in Scotland have been higher than previously expected and have as such impacted results negatively by approximately NOK 70 million in Q4 2015. This effect is included in the figures below for Scotland.
Total operational EBIT per kg through the value chain were approximately as follows for the main sources of origin:
| Norway | NOK | 12.1 |
| Scotland | NOK | -0.9 |
| Canada | NOK | 3.3 |
| Chile | NOK | -12.3 |
Reported net interest bearing debt (NIBD) was approximately NOK 9.6 billion at the end of the quarter.
A separate press release will be disclosed later today regarding a restructuring plan of Marine Harvest Scotland Farming. Following a recent review of the business up to 100 jobs will be reduced to make the business more efficient and sustainable. Harvesting volumes for 2016 will not be impacted by the restructuring plan.
The complete Q4 2015 report will be released on 17 February at 06:30 CET.
