Following a period of negative investor sentiment over land-based salmon farmer Atlantic Sapphire's refinancing risks, faith in the company has been somewhat reinstated with the latest private placement, analysts told IntraFish.

Atlantic Sapphire raised NOK 906 million (€84.6 million/$100 million) in a private placement of 8,877,451 new shares, at a price per share of NOK 102 (€9.58/$11.32), equal to the closing price on Oslo Stock Exchange on Sept.
