THE GROUP

The Group generated operating revenues of NOK 114.1 million in the third quarter 2010, compared with NOK 116.3 million in the corresponding period in 2009.

The reduction in operating revenues during the quarter can be ascribed to lower sales in the Cash Management CIT/ATM business area.

Operating profit before depreciation (EBITDA) in the third quarter 2010 was NOK 12.1 million, an increase of NOK 11.8 million from the year before. This is despite the negative development in Cash Management CIT/ ATM where EBITDA declined by NOK 2.9 million compared to the corresponding period last year.

The Group made a pre-tax loss of NOK 2.9 million in the third quarter 2010, compared with a loss of NOK 10.2 million in the same quarter in 2009.
