Charles Hostlund retook the wheel at NTS-owned Norway Royal Salmon (NRS) as the term of interim CEO Klaus Hatlebrekke ended on Monday.

Hatlebrekke's departure comes shortly after an extraordinary general meeting Wednesday when a new board was elected.

Hatlebrekke has served as CEO since Sept. 30, 2021, when Hostlund stepped down after seven years at the helm of the Atlantic salmon farmer.

"I have accepted to lead NRS in an interim period, and it is exciting to be back
with the company," said Hostlund.
