Thordur Sverrisson, CEO:"During the year there has been very positive development in the operations of
Nýherji and its domestic subsidiaries, and the performance is excellent in the
third quarter of 2010. The demand for computers and technical equipment has
increased, and sales are above plan. After a considerable decrease in the
number of software consultants, a balance has been achieved with the demand for
domestic software services, and these operations are now profitable. 

Nýherji increased its share capital by ISK 120 million at nominal price and
sold it to investors at an price per share of 7.0. At the same time agreements
with the company's commercial bank on restructuring of long-term loans were
signed. The overall impact of the measures is that the company's equity will be
strengthened by nearly ISK 1 billion. The increase in share capital, sale of
real-estate and decrease in debt will lower interest-bearing debt by ISK 2600
million. At the conclusion of these measures, Nýherji's financial position will
again be strong, and the company's equity ratio will exceed 30% at the end of
the year. The company's main emphasis will be on further improving performance
with the continuing rationalization of operations."
