In the wake of the news that Cermaq will sell its fish feed arm to private equity groups Bain Capital and Altor, Tore Valderhaug, CFO at the company said "I'm very tired and very relieved."

"This has been an intense period in the life of Cermaq with the last five months a huge activity on transactions and strategic thinking," he told IntraFish. "We are very relieved today that we've been able to find an agreement with these buyers to deliver shareholder value to our shareholders."
