Business Review

NMT Group PLC 10 February 2006 10 February 2006 NMT Group plc ('the Company') Review of Existing Business Following the EGM in September 2005, the Board has conducted a review of the Company's existing business and operations in order to determine how best to maximise value for shareholders. The review involved examining the Company's existing customer pipeline as well as identifying and visiting potential outright acquirers of the Company's products and its intellectual property. Discussions with some parties are ongoing. At the same time a review of the Company's costs has been carried out. Significant reductions have been made to the Company's overheads. On 31 January we announced that Graham Crowther, the Company's Chief Executive Officer had decided to leave the Company today to take up a new post elsewhere. The remainder of the staff will leave the Company by no later than the end of April 2006 and the Livingston office closed by mid-July 2006. Net Assets The Company's balance sheet remains strong with un-audited cash per share of 70p and un-audited net assets per share of 69p as of 31 December 2005. Future Strategy The Board has concluded that it is not in the interest of shareholders to continue investment in the safety syringe business since there is no likelihood of near or medium-term customers for the Company's existing or yet-to-be-developed products. In addition, there is insufficient cash remaining in the Company to build a foreseeable profit stream through investment on the longer term. As a result it is the Board's intention that the Company become an investment company. The investment strategy of the Company will be put to shareholders in due course.
