Crab Meat
• Total supplies of US swimming crab meat increased in 2015, due to a surge in imports from Indonesia.
• Prices for Blue Swimming crab meat have adjusted to back to 2013 range, although red Chinese crab prices were still elevated through September 2015.

Market Drivers
• Early in 2015 markets saw historically high prices and supply, supported by steady demand
• The market collapsed mid-year
– a large surge in supply (from Indonesia) due to increased IUU crab
– coincided with the sudden strengthening of the dollar against the Indonesian rupee by 12% within in 9 weeks in June, July, August
• Importers were left holding high priced inventories
• Wholesaler buying patterns changed to “just-in-time”
• Producers created new brands and dumped these into the market at even lower prices to keep on going production
• Restaurants continued to buy and feature crab on menus –enjoying higher margins

Crab Meat 2016
• Expect supply and demand to balance out and prices to hold within single digit % variance from 2015 levels
• Traditional distribution partnerships will be tested by additional brands, which lack of steady supply chain per SKU
• No further impact from dollar fluctuation expected, as seen in 2015

OYSTERS
10
Oysters – Wild to Farm Raised
• “Oysters” represent the spectrum of “ocean
ranching” to aquaculture
• Three main technologies:
– Wild Harvest on lease bottom by “planting” prepared
cultch to catch wild spawns (“spat”)
– Planned “wild” harvest of hatchery spawned “spat on
shell” with broadcast on bottom grow-out
– Fully “farm raised” and cultchless” oysters from
hatchery “single seed” juvenile through controlled
grow-out with “bag and rack” or floating “cages”
11
Oysters – Two Main Markets (1)
• Shucked / Gallon Oysters:
– Primarily “wild” oysters harvested NJ, MD, VA, Gulf of
Mexico
– MD, VA, and WA expanding “spat on shell” to
supplement natural spawn and to increase shucked
oyster supply – expect shucked supply to grow over
time as technology is adopted
12
Oysters – Two Main Markets (2)
• Live Half Shell/“White Tablecloth” Oysters:– Mostly farm raised singles from Pacific NW, NJ, MD,
and VA
– Number of farms increasing with technology being adopted
– Number of hatcheries increasing
– Grown in “bags” or “cages” farmers periodically wash and tumble to increase “cup” and shape producing more consistency in “half shell oysters” often identified by brand or region
– Increased supply of “local” oysters has stimulated rebirth of the “oyster bar” in most of US urban markets
– Supply and demand are both predicted to grow for some time as new oyster bars open
13
Oysters Technologies
• Wild harvest – “hand tonging or “dredging” for shucking
• Spat bags for setting hatchery larvae on shells for broadcast grow-out and dredge harvest to shuck
• Hatchery seed “bag and rack” farm raised for “half shell trade” for oyster bars and white table cloth

Commercial Harvest – Eastern Fisheries
Oysters – Farm Raised
• No good national data yet
• State of MA 2014 data for proxy
• 2014 Avg $.57 / oyster to grower
• 2014 Avg $.80 / oyster distributor to restaurant
• Prices stronger in 2015 due to 2015 cold winter mortality
16
West Coast Oysters
• Renewed focus on replenishing wild shell stock
• Industry leaders have launched reseeding programs
17
2016 Oyster Outlook
• Continued growth in the use of oysters in restaurants
• With many more farms coming online this may not translate to increased profits for the farms

• Surf clam catch stable
• Catch per unit of effort
low in Mid-Atlantic and
Nantucket shoals
• Harvest moving to
Georges Bank
• Good recruitment showing
up – market size in 1 to 2
years in Mid-Atlantic and
Nantucket

• Quahog catch CPUE low
but stable
• Bad weather in 2015
reduced harvests
• Industry sponsoring
recruitment scientific
surveys with SCEFMIS in
conjunction with NOAAA
and academia

Science and Sustainability
• Industry Participants initiated MSC certification in 2015
- Atlantic Capes Fisheries, Inc.
- Bumble Bee
- LaMonica Fine Foods
- Sea Watch International
- Surfside Products
• Industry sponsoring a series of research projects with SCEFMIS, NOAA, and academia to increase yield and monitor habitat impact
• Industry is working with NMFS and NEFMC to manage impacts on the environment and to continue access to Nantucket Shoals and Georges Banks
22
Surf Clam and Quahog
Chopped Clam Meat / Fried and Breaded Strips
• Raise in hourly minimum wage affecting costs for clam plants with large number of low wage earners – e.g. shuckers, squeezers, and packers
• Yield per bushel has dropped about 9% … researchers are not certain but global warming may be affecting yield per bushel
• Finished goods prices have not risen (as % increase) compared to other seafood items
• Low prices are reducing investments in harvest capacity
• Industry has little or no inventory of clam meats going into winter
• New investment would be needed to increase supply.
23
East Coast Hard Shell Clams
• Fall 2014/winter 2015 experienced harsh winter
weather resulting in higher mortality and slower
growth
• Going into 2015, market sizes were smaller than
previously, creating price pressures
• Increase of wild harvesting offset decrease in
farmed
• 2016 uncertain

UNDER THE RADAR NEW SPECIES:SOFT SHELL MANGROVE CRAB
Scylla serrata
25
Commercial Green Mangrove Crab
• Captured by small producers
- Fattened, shed and processed in soft shell form
- Undeveloped mangrove area’s important to production
• Largest production in Myanmar, embargos lifted at end of 2013
- New production in Indonesia, Bangladesh, and Thailand
• Processing support important to ensure soft shell quality
- Once crab is shed, has certain window to arrive in plant
- Ozone process ensures quality
• New production requiring new nontraditional markets
- Traditional Asian market
- USA mid-Atlantic blue swimming crab area
- New markets developing in US Hispanic, and Food Service
