Outlook for 2010 Nykredit's core earnings before impairment losses are still expected to be in the region of DKK 3,500m-4,000m. The development in impairment losses on loans and advances and investment portfolio income has exceeded our forecast made at the beginning of the year. Therefore, the forecast for profit before tax for the full year has been revised upwards to DKK 1.5bn-2.5bn excluding the gain from the sale of Nykredit Forsikring of about DKK 1.5bn. Profit before tax will depend on impairment losses on loans and advances as well as financial market trends in general. Peter Engberg Jensen, Group Chief Executive, has the following comments on the results: The first six months of 2010 have been characterised by satisfactory progress. Total lending has grown by DKK 26bn, and income has increased 12%. Further, costs have declined, and impairment losses on bank lending have fallen significantly. This development has prompted us to increase our forecast of profit before tax to DKK 1.5bn-2.5bn. In addition to the good financial performance, the merger between Forstædernes Bank and Nykredit Bank and the divestment of Nykredit Forsikring have been completed successfully.
