19.1.2024 13:30:01 CET | Måsøval AS | Inside information

Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement published by Måsøval AS
(the "Company") on 10 September 2023 regarding a possible internal
reorganization where a joint plan for demerger and triangular merger was adopted
by the board of directors of the Company and the Company's subsidiaries Måsøval
Drift AS (formerly Aqua Farms Vartdal AS), Måsøval Lisens AS (formerly Pure
Farming AS), Måsøval Hjelpeselskap Drift AS and Måsøval Hjelpeselskap Lisens AS
(the "Internal Reorganization"). Reference is also made to the stock exchange
announcement published by the Company on 25 September 2023 regarding the
approval of the Internal Reorganization by the Company's extraordinary general
meeting.

A condition for completion of the Internal Reorganization is that the Company
receives a binding advance tax ruling ("BFU") from the tax authorities
confirming that both the Internal Reorganization can be completed with tax
continuity. Today, the Company has received a BFU where the tax authorities
conclude that the outlined deduction of assets acquired in 2023 means that the
Internal Reorganization cannot be carried out with tax continuity. The deduction
has limited value for the Company, and therefore the Company will request a new
binding advance ruling from the tax authorities, seeking clarification on
whether the waiver of the deduction of assets acquired in 2023 allows for the
Internal Reorganization will allow the demerger to be carried out with tax
continuity. Subject to such confirmation from the tax authorities, the Internal
Reorganization will then be implemented.
