Hordur Arnarson, CEO:

“The operations of Landsvirkjun went well during the year 2014, despite
demanding business environment, especially due to low aluminium prices and
limitations in the delivery of electricity due to low levels in water
reservoirs. Profit before unrealized financial items amounted to USD 146.9
million, which is an increase of 20% from the previous year and has never been
higher. 

The Company is built on a solid foundation by its employees in power generation
all over the country on its 50th anniversary year and the success of a robust
financial management along with increased efforts in marketing and research
have already delivered results.
