"The company stayed on plan the first half, and the outlook is good for
the
second half. Foreign and domestic subsidiaries working in software
services
made good profit instead of last year's operational loss. Efforts to
lower
operating costs within the group succeeded, and performance therefore
improved.
Nýherji has progressed a long way in discussions with the banks on
reorganizing
the group's finances, which are expected to conclude in the near
future."
