Árni Pétur Jónsson, CEO
„We are pleased with these results and the earnings are in line with our
expectations at the beginning of the year. Our companies are gaining momentum,
they show considerable growth and are presenting very good results. Teymi's
inner growth exceeds the previous year by over 15% which shows that our
companies are increasing their market share. Most of our subsidiaries are
presenting their best results so far and our cash flow is strong. 

We are very optimistic at the beginning of this year and the prospects for our
operations are good despite the unstable environment of the economy. In the
electronic communications segment some important agreements have been concluded
and the IT segment has a good standing considering current and  future
projects. These factors will sustain further growth of the group and increased
revenues.“
