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."
