THE PERIOD


Afarak Group Plc ("Afarak" or "the Company") (LSE: AFRK, OMX: AFAGR) refers to
its announcement from 2nd January 2015 regarding the sale of saw mill equipment
and announces that it has concluded further agreements for the sale of parts of
the saw mill equipment, acquired by the Company in 2008.

The agreements have been signed in December 2015. Payments received in 2015
amount to EUR 660,000 with the remaining balances to be paid in instalments
during Q1 and Q2 of 2016. The sales will be completed by 30th April 2016. The
total cash inflow from this transaction will be EUR 1,640,000.

The transaction from discontinued operation positively affects the Q4/2015

provision, but does not have an effect on EBITDA or EBIT and consequently the
outlook of the Company remains unchanged.
