Leroy Seafood Group ASA ( (GB:0GM2) ) just unveiled an update.

Lerøy Seafood Group reported a total Q1 2026 harvest volume of 39,900 GWT of salmon and trout, up from 38,200 GWT a year earlier, with growth driven mainly by Lerøy Aurora and slightly lower output at Lerøy Midt. Lerøy Sjøtroll harvested 15,700 GWT, including a reduced share of trout compared to Q1 2025, and these figures exclude volumes from Scottish Seafarms.

In contrast, wildfish activity declined, as Lerøy Havfisk’s total wild catch in Q1 2026 fell to 14,300 tonnes from 19,000 tonnes in Q1 2025, including lower cod volumes. The mix of higher farmed harvests and weaker wild catch suggests shifting operational dynamics ahead of the company’s full Q1 2026 report due in May, with potential implications for revenue composition and margin drivers between aquaculture and wild-catch segments.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:0GM2) stock is a Hold with a NOK48.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Leroy Seafood Group ASA stock, see the GB:0GM2 Stock Forecast page.
