Micros Report Update Highlights Price to Book Ratio of only $0.29 Underscoring the Company's Undervalued Nature and Sets Fair Value Target Price of $0.78.

Michael Willingham, Micros Report Director of Research, recently issued an update to his November 2007 research coverage on NewMarket.

Mr. Willingham stated in his recent update, "If the market wakes up to the true value being built in this Company, there will be a significant reversal of fortunes in the share price."

The update emphasizes the Company's book value of $62 million compared to its current market capitalization of only $18 million. NewMarket's fully diluted book value is $0.25 per share and its undiluted book value per share is $0.30, compared to a recent close of merely $0.085 per share. "The Company's Price-to-Book ratio has become so low, that the discount in the Company's share price seems glaring... It is important to point out that NMKTE currently trades well below its book value. Established firms practically never trade below their intrinsic value. This fact alone should see NMKTE above $0.295 a share which would be exactly 1x book value," Mr. Willingham stated in his update.

The report goes on to assign a Fair Value Target price for NewMarket stock of $0.78 per share: "This $0.78 fair value estimate is assigned based upon what NMKTE has already achieved as a company in regards to their historical profitability, historical revenue, and future projections. Based upon the past five years' results, the future growth of the company has a high probability of continuing. If the company can continue to grow revenue and profits both organically and through acquisitions while keeping the outstanding shares in check, even higher stock prices should be expected in the future."
