Orkla Snacks announces the sale of Nói-Síríus

Orkla Snacks has entered into an agreement to sell 100% of the shares in
Nói-Síríus HF (“Nói-Síríus”), the leading manufacturer of chocolate and
confectionery in Iceland to Alfa Framtak.
…

Vis børsmeldingen

Orkla acquired 20% of the shares in Nói-Síríus in 2019, and the remaining 80%
in 2021. In 2025, the company had a turnover of NOK 427m and an EBIT of NOK
48m.

At the 2023 Capital Markets Day, Orkla Snacks presented the company’s strategy
to unlock growth potential in hero brands through much sharper portfolio
prioritization. Although Nói-Síríus has performed well, its strategic fit with
the broader Orkla Snacks portfolio is limited and adds structural complexity.

“I want to thank the entire Nói-Síríus team for a successful collaboration
over several years. I am confident that Alfa Framtak will continue to support
the company’s positive trajectory, and I wish everyone at Nói-Síríus the very
best for the future,” says Orkla Snacks CEO Ingvill Tarberg Berg.

The sale is expected to be closed during the second quarter of 2026 pending
approvals from the Icelandic competition authorities. The parties have agreed
to keep the purchase price confidential.

Nói-Síríus is Iceland’s leading chocolate and confectionery producer, known
for its premium chocolates, liquorice, and traditional Icelandic sweets.
Founded in 1920, the company has become an essential part of Icelandic
culture, celebrated for its craftsmanship, high-quality ingredients, and
iconic products. The company has about 116 employees.

“A true pillar has left us. Stein Erik Hagen has had an enormous impact on
Orkla for more than 25 years, and on the Norwegian business community for
several decades. His passing was sudden and unexpected. This is a sad day for
many at Orkla, and for me personally. Through more than 30 years of
collaboration in various roles, I have come to know Stein Erik as an
exceptionally sharp businessman with tremendous warmth and generosity toward
those around him. My thoughts now go to his closest family,” says Orkla
President and CEO Nils K. Selte.

Hagen established his first business in 1976 and had a long career in retail,
industry, financial investment activities, and management.

The Board has appointed Liselott Kilaas as acting Chair of the Board.

– En bauta har gått bort. Stein Erik Hagen har hatt en enorm betydning for
Orkla i over 25 år, og for norsk næringsliv gjennom flere tiår. Hans bortgang
var brå og uventet. Dette er en tung dag for mange i Orkla, og for meg
personlig. Gjennom mer enn 30 års samarbeid i ulike roller har jeg lært Stein
Erik å kjenne som en usedvanlig skarp forretningsmann med stor varme og
raushet for de han hadde rundt seg. Mine tanker går nå til hans nærmeste
familie, sier Orklas konsernsjef Nils K. Selte.

Hagen etablerte sin første egne virksomhet i 1976 og hadde en lang karriere
innenfor varehandel, industri, finansiell investeringsvirksomhet og ledelse.

Styret har konstituert Liselott Kilaas som styreleder.

Orklas konsoliderte porteføljeselskaper (inkludert Orkla ASA og Business
service-selskaper) oppnådde en vekst i underliggende EBIT (adj.) på 3,0 %
sammenlignet med samme periode i fjor. EBIT (adj.) for Orkla-konsernet
utgjorde 1,7 mrd. kroner i første kvartal, en nedgang på 1,3 % sammenlignet
med samme periode i fjor.

Resultatandelen fra Jotun falt med 5,8 % sammenlignet med samme periode i
fjor, til 617 mill. kroner. Justert for negative valutaomregningseffekter var
salgsveksten 9,4 % og veksten i driftsresultatet 16 %.

– Resultatene viser fortsatt fremgang på tvers av porteføljen, med volum- og
resultatvekst i de fleste porteføljeselskapene, ledet an av Orkla Snacks og
Jotun. Samtidig skaper den geopolitiske situasjonen økt usikkerhet fremover,
særlig knyttet til kostnader på innsatsfaktorer. Porteføljeselskapene
gjennomfører tiltak for å redusere effektene, samtidig som de prioriterer
langsiktig verdiskaping, sier konsernsjef Nils K. Selte i Orkla.
