Endorsement and Statement by the Board of Directors and the CEO

The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements of Festi hf. for the period from 1 January to 30 September 2022 have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, and should be read in conjunction with the Group's Annual Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2021. The interim financial statements comprise the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements of Festi hf. (the "Company") and its subsidiaries together referred to as the "Group". The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements have not been audited or reviewed by the Company's independent auditors.

Operations of the Group

For the period from 1 January to 30 September 2022, profit amounted to ISK 3,373 million. Total comprehensive income for the period was ISK 3,238 million. At the end of the period equity amounted to ISK 33,654 million, including share capital in the amount of ISK 308 million. Based on the Company's 2022 Annual General Meeting resolution in March, a dividend of ISK 1,563 million was approved and paid to shareholders in April. Reference is made to the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity regarding information on changes in equity.

Business has steadily recovered from the negative effects of COVID-19 sanctions lifted at year-end 2021 and is returning to normal operations. Prices of commodities have risen sharply compared to last year with an increase in turnover and cost of goods sold and lowering considerably sales ratio margin in the fuel business. The large increase in inflation and interest rates have also led to notable price increases in other areas of the business affecting overall sales ratio margins in 2022.

In the third quarter compared to last year, there was a large increase in the number of tourists visiting our stores but a decrease in local traffic travelling around Iceland. With the war in Ukraine continuing, expectations are that commodity prices will remain high and we could expect supply shortages in some product ranges. The Group entities closely monitor the situation with their suppliers to ensure our customers are served as best as possible.

At a shareholders meeting 14 July 2022 a new Board of Directors was elected. The newly elected Board hired Magnús Kr. Ingason, CFO of Festi as a temporary CEO effective from 31 July. On 7 September, Ásta S. Fjeldsted, former Managing Director of Krónan, was hired as a CEO of Festi. Magnús Kr. Ingason serves as a Deputy CEO and CFO effective from the same date. Guðrún Aðalsteinsdóttir was hired as the Managing Director for Krónan on 27 September 2022.

Expenses amounting to 76 million relating to the resignation of the former CEO of Festi, Eggert Þór Kristófersson was expensed in Q3 2022.

Statement by the Board of Directors and the CEO

The Company's Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the European Union and, as applicable, additional requirements of the Icelandic Financial Statements Act.

According to the best of our knowledge, in our opinion the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements give a true and fair view of the financial performance of the Group for the nine month period ended 30 September 2022, its assets, liabilities and Consolidated Financial Position as at 30 September 2022, and its Consolidated Cash Flows for the period then ended.

Furthermore, in our opinion the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements and the Endorsement and Statement by the Board of Directors and the CEO give a true and fair view of the development and results of the Group's operations and its position and describe the principal risk and uncertainties faced by the Group.

The Board of Directors and the CEO have today discussed the Company's Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements of Festi hf. for the period from 1 January to 30 September 2022 and confirm them by means of their signatures.

5. Operating segments

An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activity from which it may earn revenue and incur expenses, including revenue and expenses relating to transactions with other segments of the Group. Segments are determined by the Company’s management, which regularly reviews the Group’s segments so as to decide upon how assets are allocated as well as to monitor their financial performance.

Operating results of segments, their assets and liabilities consist of items directly attributable to individual segments as well as those items which can be allocated in a logical way. Capital expenditure of segments consist of the total cost of acquisition of operating and intangible assets. Transactions between segments are priced on an arm's length basis.

The operating companies of N1, Krónan and ELKO in the Group are individual operating segments. The Group’s other entities comprise the fourth segment. That segment consists of the operations of the parent company Festi, Bakkinn Vöruhótel and Festi fasteignir.

6. Operating income

Sale of goods and services

Sale of goods and services are recognised based on the fundamental principle of recognising revenue as or when control of goods and services are transferred to the customer.

Income from lease of real estate

Real estate leased to parties outside the Group are classified as investment properties. An investment property is a real estate held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both. Investment properties are recognised at fair value. Fair value changes of investment properties are presented separately in the income statement, and therefore presented separately from lease income from those same assets.

Revenue from warehouse activities, commissions, gain on sale of assets and other income are presented in other operating income.
