Sea Forest Limited (ASX:SEA) (Sea Forest or the Company) today announces its half year results
for the period ended 31 December 2025 (1H26).
FINANCIAL OVERVIEW
A$’000 1H26 1H25 Change (%)
SeaFeedTM
revenue 796 237 236
Underlying EBITDA (2,002) (1,849) (8)
Operating expenses 2,803 1,745 61
Statutory NPAT (3,944) (2,990) (32)
Net cash used in operating activities (4,652) (5,153) 10
Cash and Cash on Deposits 28,946 12,615 129
Revenue from SeaFeed sales for 1H26 was $796k, an increase of 236% on the prior corresponding
period (pcp), reflecting continued progress in the commercial rollout of SeaFeed and growing
customer adoption.
During the half, Sea Forest entered into an agreement with Providore Global bringing the cumulative
total number of cattle under agreement to 118,000 head as at 31 December 2025. These cattle are
progressively being inducted onto SeaFeed supplementation.
Underlying EBITDA which excludes share-based payment amortisation, impairment charges and non-
recurring items such as IPO listing costs, was $(2,002)k, down 8% due to higher cost of sales in line
with increased SeaFeed sales, and higher other expenses.
Sea Forest Chief Executive Officer, and Co-Founder, Sam Elsom, said: “We delivered strong revenue
growth in the first half, and also reached 118,000 head with cattle under agreement, ahead of our
breakeven target. Combined with a strong post-IPO balance sheet, this provides Sea Forest with
financial strength to continue scaling.
“Operationally, we continued to build momentum across multiple fronts. We secured new commercial
agreements including Providore Global, and our multi-year collaboration with Woolworths Group,
Teys Australia and DIT AgTech opens a pathway into the 30 million-head Australian grazing market.
We also commenced construction of our first regional mixing and distribution centre in Newcastle,
which will support cost savings and operational efficiencies for the business and our customers.

“Internationally, we began our entry into South America through our partnership with Belterra in Brazil,
the world’s largest livestock market, and progressed an exclusive manufacturing and distribution
partnership with Oisix Ra Daichi in Japan.
“We enter the second half with strong momentum, gaining commercial traction and with a clear
pathway to expand domestically and internationally.”
CASH AND BALANCE SHEET
Operating cash outflows were $(4,652)k, an improvement of 10% on the prior period, supported by an
increase in customer receipts. These operating cash outflows included $(946)k of non-recurring items.
Net cash outflows for the half were $(2,778)k, compared to cash inflows of $956kin 1H25. This
change is mainly driven by the $19 million placement into term deposits. Excluding this treasury
movement, underlying cash burn improved, supported by stronger customer receipts and lower
operating payments.
As at 31 December 2025, Sea Forest held $29 million in cash and cash on deposit and reported $41
million in net assets. The company’s strong balance sheet provides a solid foundation for its long-term
growth strategy, product commercialisation and market expansion activities.
OUTLOOK
Sea Forest enters 2H26 with strong operational momentum. The company has commenced early
discussions with potential customers in Australia’s grazing livestock market, enabled by the recently
announced trial with Woolworths, DIT AgTech and Teys Australia. This collaboration provides another
pathway into the grazing segment, representing more than 30 million cattle, materially expanding
SeaFeeds’ total addressable market.
Sea Forest’s R&D team is developing additional delivery formats beyond oil dosing, including blocks,
loose licks and water delivery systems, improving flexibility and supporting broader adoption as the
Company scales. The company is also advancing regulatory approvals and customer trials across
priority international jurisdictions.
SeaFeed Aquaculture (fishfeed) trials at Deakin University have confirmed 30% increases in growth
rates. The next stage of research, commencing in May 2026, will quantify potential benefits relating to
heat resistance, immune response and reductions in time on farm.
