à landsbanken 29.07.2013 14:00 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mariehamn, 2013-07-29 14:00 CEST (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bank of à land Plc Interim Report 29.7.2013 3.00 pm Interim Report for the period January - June 2013 'Our net operating profit was nine million euros better than in the corresponding period of 2012, showing that the Bank of à land has made significant progress during the year. We have raised the efficiency of our organisation. Business volume has climbed, and especially in Sweden we are seeing steady growth. We have reviewed the pricing of our services, and an increasingly large proportion of our lending portfolio has achieved pricing that corresponds to the costs that result from the new regulations. I would like to express my warm gratitude to all our employees, who are implementing a major reform effort while continuing to deliver the best possible service to our customers. Yet much work remains before we have reached the level of profitability that our shareholders have a right to expect. Our earnings performance remains challenged by low market interest rates and cost increases due to recurring regulatory requirements.'
