2011-11-28 13:40:38 CET 2011-11-28 13:41:40 CET REGULATED INFORMATION Orkuveita Reykjavíkur - Financial Statement ReleaseOrkuveita Reykjavikur's Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements Q3 2011Reykjavik, 2011-11-28 13:40 CET (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Operations of Orkuveita Reykjavíkur (OR) returned better results for the first nine months of 2011 than for the comparative period last year. The reasons are increased revenues and curtailing in operations. Net cash from operating activities amounted to ISK 14.1 billions, an increase of ISK 4.3 billions from the comparative period 2010. Unfavorable currency exchange developments and decrease in the price of aluminium in the first nine months of 2011, had a big negative effect on financial income and expense items. Those items change by ISK 35.6 billions between periods. Therefore the period shows loss of ISK 5.344 million compared to a profit of ISK 16.794 million in the same period 2010 when the development of the exchange rate was more favorable. Orkuveita Reykjavíkur´s condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the period 1 January to 30 September 2011 were approved by the Board of Directors and the CEO at a board meeting today. Orkuveita Reykjavikur's condensed consolidated interim financial statements are in accordance with international financial reporting standards as adopted by the EU. Bjarni Bjarnason, CEO of OR: “It is good to see how well underway the Company is in gaining control of the operations and curtailing costs. This is a key factor for Orkuveita Reykjavikur to keep the objectives of the action plan, made in cooperation with the Company´s owners this spring. However, the development of the price of aluminium and exchange rate reveal that the Company is still too vulnerable to changes in external factors.” Highlights of the period 1 January to 30 September 2011 Orkuveita Reykjavikur´s operations returned a loss of ISK 5.344 million in the first nine months of 2011.
