Despite the unprecedented Greek crisis – GDP down 6.9% in Q2 2011 (- 4.5% expected for FY 2011), MIG's companies have managed to maintain their leading market shares during the first half of the year, and are further improving their competitive operational positioning

As the first half has come to an end amidst significant turmoil in the country, MIG’s companies are now solidly positioned to take advantage of the uplift in performance generally experienced during the third quarter
The reduction of losses during the first half of the year, along with further developments in the Greek situation, creates optimism for improved operations and results

KEY EVENTS AND HIGHLIGHTS OF H1 2011:
VIVARTIA 2011 2010 H1 Sales: €389.2m €410.0m H1 EBITDA: €13.0m €1.9m H1 Net income after minorities: €(25.4)m €(107.6)m

Introduction of increased VAT from September 1st, however, may halt this trend
ATTICA GROUP 2011 2010 H1 Sales: €111.5m €125.8m H1 EBITDA: €(12.6)m €(7.3)m H1 Net income after minorities: €(34.0)m €(32.0)m

On May 24th, Attica announced a new 3 year joint service agreement with ANEK Lines in its Patras – Igoumenitsa – Ancona international route and the Piraeus – Heraklion, Crete domestic route. This joint service agreement aims to further improve services offered, as well as to optimise the capacity offered in these routes, to better reflect current demand while maintaining the high quality of services offered today. We expect that going forward, these actions will have material positive effects on Attica’s results Performance for the first half was affected by a sharp rise in fuel prices, as well as the fact that industry-wide, the first half of the year is always slower than the second, which includes the summer season
HYGEIA GROUP 2011 2010 H1 Sales: €128.2m €150.1m H1 EBITDA: €3.9m €13.9m H1 Net income after minorities: €(17.2)m €(6.0)m

Whilst group results were down for the first half, at parent company level EBITDA increased by 10% to €12.3m During the first half of the year, Hygeia sold its share in the Safak Group of hospitals in Turkey for a consideration of US$12m. The transaction has already begun to positively affect the operating profitability of HYGEIA Group (in 2010, the investment in Safak Group contributed approximately €6.6m of losses to the Group results) Focusing on its shareholders long-term interests, Hygeia is continuing with its planned share capital increase of €88m (1 new share for each existing one at €0.50 per share), which will enhance the group's capital structure and allow for the financing of any investment opportunities Significant efforts are currently being made towards a strategic restructuring of the maternity operations and of those in Cyprus

substantial cost-cutting initiatives During February 2011 the new Galaxy platform was launched, providing businesses and users with a series of business applications and advanced software development tools with unlimited personalization and customization capabilities SingularLogic’s results continue to be largely affected by the current situation in Greece, with significant decreases in public sector business and private company solutions. However, SingularLogic continues to hold its position as the undisputed leader in the sector While the re-establishment of public sector initiatives has been delayed, results in the second half of the year will reflect an uplift due to the certainty of pressing needs in this sector in the near future

A new management team was recently created at Olympic Air, comprised of industry experts and veteran managers with proven experience. This new management has already put into place many initiatives which have already had a positive impact on the strategy and operational performance of the airline On 4th March 2011, Olympic announced a change of strategy aiming to become a regionally focused operator. In-line with this new strategy, Olympic discontinued flights to Vienna, Brussels, London and Paris and added domestic flights from Athens to Corfu and Alexandroupolis, as well as from Thessaloniki to Heraklion, Chania, Mytilene and Rhodes. At the same time, slots at London-Heathrow and Paris-Charles de Gaulle were disposed of accordingly On 27th March 2011, Olympic Air commenced its cooperation agreement with Cyprus Airways, with code-shared flights from (and to) Athens, Rhodes, Heraklion and Thessaloniki, and to (and from) Larnaka and Pafos. The agreement has since been expanded to cover most domestic and international destinations of Olympic Air as well as international flights of Cyprus Airways and a wider co-operation in the areas of ground handling and aircraft maintenance Other codesharing / strategic initiatives are currently under way with international carriers The Group is on track to delivering profitability by 2012

Commenting on the H1 results, Dennis Malamatinas, Marfin Investment Group’s Chief Executive Officer, stated:
“The first half of the year has included some of the most uncertain and trying times in Greece’s history – an uncertain outlook as to the political future of the country, as well as its effect on the economy. During these times, MIG's companies have been able to maintain their leading market positions and although we anticipate a difficult second half due to the fragility of the consumer spending power, we remain confident that our companies will continue outperforming the competition.
We continue to stay focused on executing the respective strategies of the group's companies and on always staying ahead of the curve during this countrywide slump. Cost containment remains a major priority across the board, as does streamlining our businesses by emphasising their core product lines and driving innovation.
Many of the initiatives undertaken during the first semester are already showing promise; our restructuring of the business at Olympic has already resulted in higher load factors and more efficient flight planning, while the new management team has already significantly reduced the cost base. Hygeia, our healthcare group, is already benefitting from the disposal of its Turkish business, as it is now able to focus its efforts on its more profitable businesses, such as its domestic healthcare operations and the new hospital in Albania. Our leisure businesses such as Sunce Bluesun are showing healthier occupancy rates than before, highlighting the unique offerings that they represent.
As we have entered the second half of the year, we stand by our belief that we represent the strongest, highest quality companies and brands in their respective sectors in Greece and the region, and we continue to offer our customers and shareholders the best performance under the circumstances. The reduction of losses during the first half of the year, along with further developments in the Greek situation, creates optimism for improved operations and results in the future. And last but not least, the strong cash position of the group remains our bedrock.” Investor Relations +30 210 350 4000 +44 207 054 9280 www.marfininvestmentgroup.com Investor Release 31 August 2011
