The Interim Consolidated Financial Statements of Eik fasteignafélag hf. for the period 1 January to 30 September 2026 were approved by the Company’s Board of Directors and CEO on 3 November 2026.
Attached is the interim report, comprising the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the first nine months of 2026 together with more detailed information on the Company’s operations than is provided in this release.
The main results are as follows:
In case of any discrepancy in the English and the Icelandic versions of this announcement or the Financial Statements, the Icelandic version shall prevail.
Hreiðar Már Hermannsson, CEO:
“In the quarter, we continued along the path we described in the letter to shareholders in March: large properties, strong tenants and predictable operating costs. Dalvegur 6–8 was added to the portfolio, and we continued to sell smaller units where our ownership share was negligible.
The conversion of Eyravegur in Selfoss has been completed. The building is fully let, including for sports activities. Eik obtained building permits by subdividing the site and amending the local zoning plan, and the residential plot at Eyravegur was subsequently sold in the first half of this year. This is the approach we set out: creating value through zoning changes and leasing, without Eik acting as the developer. At the same time, we remain a participant in the development of business and youth activities in South Iceland.
Net cash from operations over the last twelve months amounted to 11.1% of the Company’s market capitalisation at the end of the quarter. The second instalment of this year’s dividend was paid in October, as we announced in March. The Company’s operations continue to deliver value to its shareholders, as reflected in strong dividend payments resulting from robust underlying operations.
Since the beginning of the year, we have come to the bond market on the dates announced in this year’s issuance plan and sold bonds for ISK 18.7 billion across all series, of which ISK 6.7 billion in the long series. In March, we said that annual issuance in the long series would amount to 5–7% of total debt, and we will finish the year just under 7%. Towards the end of the year, we will publish an issuance plan for 2027 that will provide greater visibility, as we have announced. Eik was the first listed company in a long time to publish such a plan, and we intend to remain at the forefront in the execution of bond auctions and disclosure on the Company’s financing.
Leasing remains strong. The economic occupancy rate was 95.1% at the end of the quarter, within the range we guided for year-end. From this quarter onwards, we no longer exclude development properties from the ratio. On that basis, the ratio is 93.5%, and this is how we will report it going forward. We believe that reporting the occupancy rate without excluding specific properties gives a clearer picture of the Company’s operations and the challenges we face, and pushes the Company’s management and staff to achieve better results in leasing.
In the fourth quarter, we continued the simplification of the organisation that began last year and have undertaken a restructuring and streamlining of the Company’s office. We estimate that these measures will reduce operating expenses by ISK 110 million on an annualised basis from 2027 onwards. One-off costs of just over ISK 45 million will be expensed in the fourth quarter in connection with employee departures.
In March, we presented a new strategy in which we committed to simplifying the Company’s portfolio, making its financing more predictable and its operations more cost-efficient and effective. We have made significant progress in implementing the new strategy and will continue resolutely along the same path.”
Operations of the period
Eik’s income from operations amounted to ISK 11,132 million during the period, an increase of 19.8% year-on-year, of which rental income was ISK 9,718 million. Operating expenses increased by 11.1% year-on-year to ISK 3,848 million. EBITDA for the period amounted to ISK 7,284 million, an increase of 24.9% compared with the same period last year. Adjusted for one-off items in 2025, the increase was 22.7%.
While the Company’s income from operations has grown strongly, expenses have grown at a slower pace. This is reflected in an increase in the Net Operating Income (NOI) ratio, which was 72.9% in the first nine months of 2026, compared with 71.0% in the same period last year.
Change in fair value of investment properties amounted to ISK 6,121 million, and net finance costs amounted to ISK 8,908 million.
Total comprehensive profit for the period amounted to ISK 3,307 million.
Financial Position
Total assets of the Company amounted to ISK 196,369 million at the end of September 2026, of which investment properties were valued at ISK 184,140 million and assets for own use amounted to ISK 5,350 million. The Company’s equity amounted to ISK 54,350 million at the end of the period. The Company’s loan-to-value ratio (net interest-bearing debt / value of real estate, building permits and plots) was 59.3%. At the Company’s Annual General Meeting on 16 April 2026, it was approved to pay a dividend to shareholders for the 2025 financial year in the amount of ISK 3,732.7 million, to be paid in two equal instalments. The payment date for the first instalment was 28 April 2026 and for the second instalment 14 October 2026. The Company’s equity at the end of the third quarter reflects the liability for the second dividend instalment.
Total liabilities of the Company amounted to ISK 142,019 million as at 30 September 2026, of which interest-bearing debt accounted for ISK 114,558 million and the income tax liability for ISK 16,379 million.
So far this year, the Company has issued three new bond series. Bonds with a total nominal value of ISK 6,700 million have been issued in the series EIK 120266, ISK 7,000 million in EIK 150531, and ISK 5,000 million in EIK 29 1. The bond series EIK 050726 reached final maturity in July 2026 and has been repaid in full. The next final maturity of the Company’s bond series, amounting to approximately ISK 3,600 million, is in March 2027, which is also the only final maturity next year.
The Company’s Portfolio
The Company continues to simplify its portfolio. So far this year, it has acquired two properties for approximately ISK 4.0 billion: Hádegismóar 8, let to Brimborg under a 20-year triple-net lease, and Dalvegur 6–8 in Kópavogur, let to Kraftvélar under a comparable lease structure for two years with extension options. The estimated annualised EBITDA contribution of the properties is approximately ISK 310 million.
During the period, the Company also sold properties for ISK 1,350 million, with a sales gain of approximately ISK 125 million, or approximately 10% above book value. These included Suðurlandsbraut 20, Fossvegur 3, Járnháls 4 and Síðumúli 25, as well as two smaller property interests. Three of the six properties sold were non-income-generating plots. The net impact of the acquisitions and sales is estimated to increase annualised EBITDA by approximately ISK 260 million.
Updated Outlook
The Company has updated its outlook for 2026 to reflect changes in its portfolio, costs related to streamlining measures, and other factors affecting performance. The Company expects EBITDA for 2026 to be in the range of ISK 9,450–9,640 million.
The outlook is based on the consumer price index for October 2026 (CPI for indexation in December).
Presentation meeting
An open presentation meeting for market participants will be held on Wednesday, 4 November 2026, at 8:30 AM at the Company’s offices on the 18th floor of Smáratorg 3.

The Company believes that these developments together will continue to reinforce its competitive position in the global electric mobility market.

Proposed Empulser acquisition brings international investor Patrick Tsang and opportunities in defense technology, autonomous systems and wireless power
Management demonstrates confidence in AIBotics’ future through insider debt-to-equity conversions
MIAMI, Nov. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — AIBotics, Inc. (OTCID: AIBT) (“AIBotics” or the “Company”) today issued the following letter to shareholders from Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Ben Kaplan, highlighting the Company’s recent accomplishments, expanding opportunities in artificial intelligence, robotics and unmanned technologies, and management’s belief that AIBotics is approaching a pivotal stage in executing its long-term business plan.
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
I believe AIBotics is entering one of the most exciting and consequential periods in its development.
For years, we have worked to build a technology company focused on artificial intelligence, robotics, unmanned systems and intelligent automation. We have invested considerable time and resources in developing technologies, identifying acquisitions, establishing international relationships and assembling the capabilities needed to compete in rapidly growing markets.
Today, those efforts are beginning to come together.
We believe AIBotics is approaching an important inflection point — transitioning from developing our business strategy and assembling the pieces to putting those capabilities to work in commercial markets.
Over the past several months, we completed the acquisition of NovaCore Labs’ operating assets in Jamaica, entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Empulser Enterprises LLC, expanded our relationship with Ultrobotix in Israel and advanced our PHILL ROBOT manufacturing program.
We have also attracted Patrick Tsang, an international investor and entrepreneur with more than two decades of experience in capital markets, mergers and acquisitions, corporate development and emerging technologies.
These developments are part of a unified strategy to bring together technologies, intellectual property, operating capabilities, experienced leadership and access to capital under one corporate structure.
Our objective is to build a diversified technology company positioned to participate in the expanding markets for robotics, drones, intelligent automation and autonomous systems.
Building a Technology Company for the Next Generation of Automation
Artificial intelligence is transforming how businesses operate. We believe the next major opportunity lies in bringing that intelligence into the physical world through robotics, drones and autonomous machines.
Commercial drones are being deployed for infrastructure inspection, mapping, surveying, agriculture and specialized services. Robotics is expanding into food production, logistics, hospitality, wellness and other industries. Defense organizations are also increasing their emphasis on unmanned platforms and autonomous technologies.
These developments create opportunities for companies capable of combining artificial intelligence with practical technologies that solve real-world problems.
Our strategy is not dependent on a single product. We are building a portfolio of complementary technologies and business opportunities across commercial robotics, drone services, intelligent automation, wireless power and autonomous systems.
We believe the combination of these capabilities could become increasingly valuable as businesses and governments accelerate their adoption of intelligent automation.
NovaCore Labs: Establishing an Operating Foundation in the Caribbean
Our acquisition of NovaCore Labs’ operating assets in Jamaica represents an important step toward establishing commercial operations.
The acquired assets include 10 service robots, six commercial drones, three field generators, Google Street View mapping equipment and a dedicated mapping vehicle, along with software, intellectual property, operating methodologies, customer information and related business assets.
These capabilities provide a foundation for pursuing opportunities in commercial drone services, geospatial mapping, robotics and intelligent automation.
We believe Jamaica offers attractive opportunities in tourism, infrastructure, commercial development and government services. Our objective is to establish NovaCore as a commercial technology-services business, develop paying customers and expand into other Caribbean Community (CARICOM) markets.
As we build customer relationships and a record of commercial performance, we believe these services could be replicated across additional Caribbean markets, creating opportunities for regional growth.
The acquisition has already received regional attention, including coverage in The Jamaica Gleaner.
We view NovaCore as more than an acquisition of technology and equipment. It provides a foundation for developing an operating business with revenue potential and opportunities for geographic expansion.
Empulser and Patrick Tsang: A Potentially Transformative Opportunity
Our definitive agreement to acquire Empulser Enterprises LLC represents another important development in AIBotics’ evolution.
Founded by Patrick Tsang, Empulser is developing technologies for defense and dual-use applications, including wireless power, autonomous systems, unmanned platforms and technologies intended to extend the operational capabilities of intelligent machines.
We believe the future of autonomous systems will increasingly depend on three critical capabilities: Power. Persistence. Autonomy.
Artificial intelligence can make a drone or robotic platform more capable, but those capabilities have limited value if the system cannot remain operational long enough to complete its mission.
Empulser’s technology strategy addresses challenges involving power delivery, operational endurance and autonomous operation — areas we believe represent substantial opportunities in defense, critical infrastructure and commercial markets.
Equally important is the involvement of Patrick Tsang.
Patrick is chairman of Tsang Group, a fourth-generation single-family office with interests in technology, real estate, natural resources and other investments. His career spans more than two decades of international investing, capital formation, mergers and acquisitions, and corporate development.
He has established extensive business and investment relationships across Asia, Europe, the Middle East and North America.
His background includes an early-stage investment in Pulse Evolution in 2018, where he also served as a strategic adviser. Pulse subsequently became part of FaceBank Group, which completed its merger with fuboTV in 2020, resulting in a company traded on the New York Stock Exchange.
Patrick is also a qualified solicitor in England and Wales and Hong Kong, attended Harvard Business School’s Owner/President Management program and is the author of The Global Citizen.
We believe his experience, international relationships and understanding of capital markets could be invaluable as AIBotics pursues financing, strategic partnerships and additional growth opportunities.
Patrick has joined AIBotics as a strategic adviser. Subject to completion of the Empulser acquisition, applicable approvals and other conditions, he is expected to assume the roles of chief executive officer and director.
I am enthusiastic about the potential for Patrick to help lead AIBotics through its next stage of development. His combination of financial experience, international relationships and entrepreneurial expertise aligns with our objective of building a technology company capable of operating across multiple markets.
The proposed acquisition also incorporates a performance-based structure. Under the agreement, AIBotics would issue Series C preferred stock with an aggregate stated value of up to $22 million, with 90% of the maximum consideration tied to 10 specified milestones over 36 months.
These milestones include intellectual-property development, technology demonstrations, flight testing, participation in testing or pilot programs and specified revenue objectives.
The transaction remains subject to closing conditions, and Empulser’s technologies will require additional development, testing, financing and commercialization.
We believe the combination of Empulser’s technology strategy and Patrick’s international business experience could become an important catalyst for AIBotics’ future growth.
PHILL ROBOT: Moving Toward Commercialization
We remain committed to advancing PHILL ROBOT, our AI-enabled massage and wellness robotic platform.
Although PHILL has experienced development delays and several false starts, the additional work has allowed us to refine the product, evaluate manufacturing alternatives and strengthen its foundation for commercialization.
Through our relationship with 3DX Industries, we are advancing an initial five-unit pilot program intended to establish manufacturing procedures, component production, assembly methods, system integration and quality standards.
This represents an important step toward the manufacturing validation necessary for repeatable production.
We have also continued protecting the PHILL ROBOT trademark and related intellectual property, which we believe represent valuable long-term corporate assets.
Our objective is to complete the remaining development and validation work and position PHILL for commercial introduction when it is ready.
We continue to believe the expanding market for intelligent personal-service and wellness robotics presents a meaningful opportunity for AIBotics.
Ultrobotix: Expanding International Robotics Opportunities
Our relationship with Ultrobotix Ltd. in Israel provides additional opportunities in commercial and industrial automation.
Ultrobotix has begun working with an Israeli food manufacturer to evaluate robotic solutions for selected production-line activities. AIBotics expects to assist in identifying and evaluating robotic technologies and suppliers that could address these needs.
Food manufacturing represents a promising area for automation because of repetitive tasks, labor requirements and the importance of consistency and efficiency.
Although these activities remain exploratory, they demonstrate how our international relationships may create opportunities to participate in the commercial deployment of advanced robotics.
We intend to continue identifying technologies, manufacturers and partners capable of helping us expand into practical applications for intelligent automation.
Strengthening Our Financial Position and Investing in Growth
We have also taken steps to strengthen our financial position and demonstrate management’s confidence in AIBotics’ future.
As recently announced, independent director Mark Croskery and I converted debt owed to us by AIBotics into shares of the Company’s common stock.
We chose to accept equity rather than repayment because we believe in AIBotics’ long-term prospects. These transactions eliminated corresponding liabilities, preserved cash and further aligned our interests with those of our shareholders.
Looking ahead, we intend to raise additional capital to execute our business plan, advance our technologies and expand commercial operations.
Capital investment has been fundamental to the development of leading technology companies such as Apple, Alphabet, Tesla and SpaceX. These companies have used capital to develop technologies, build infrastructure and expand their businesses.
While AIBotics operates on a substantially different scale, the underlying principle is the same: Capital, when deployed effectively, can transform promising technologies into operating businesses and create long-term enterprise value.
We intend to pursue financing that supports our strategic initiatives, advances commercialization and strengthens our operating capabilities.
We recognize that raising capital involves costs, risks and potentially additional share issuances. Our responsibility is to allocate capital carefully toward opportunities we believe can increase AIBotics’ revenue potential and long-term value.
Approaching the Next Stage of Our Business Plan
When I look at AIBotics today, I see a company that has made considerable progress toward assembling the elements of a much broader enterprise.
We have acquired drone, robotics and mapping assets that can support commercial operations in the Caribbean.
We have entered into a definitive agreement that could expand our capabilities into defense and dual-use technologies.
We have attracted Patrick Tsang, whose experience and international relationships could become important resources for future growth.
We are advancing PHILL ROBOT toward manufacturing validation and potential commercialization.
We have established international relationships that could create additional opportunities in commercial and industrial robotics.
And we have strengthened our balance sheet while preparing to pursue the capital necessary to advance our plans.
These are the pieces we have spent years working to put in place. We believe we are approaching the stage when they can begin coming together into operating businesses, commercial relationships and revenue-generating opportunities.
Our immediate priorities are to expand NovaCore’s commercial activities, complete the proposed Empulser acquisition, advance technology-development milestones, move PHILL toward commercialization and secure financing to support these objectives.
We expect the next phase of AIBotics’ development to place increasing emphasis on measurable results.
Our success will be determined by our ability to attract customers, generate revenue, commercialize technologies and improve financial performance.
There is still considerable work ahead, and executing our strategy will require additional capital, disciplined management and continued technological development.
Nevertheless, I believe the opportunity before us is substantially greater than when we began assembling this business.
The technologies are advancing. The markets are expanding. Our relationships are growing. And the elements of our business plan are increasingly coming together.
Our Commitment to Shareholders
I want to close by expressing my confidence in AIBotics’ direction and my appreciation to the shareholders who have supported us.
Mark Croskery and I have demonstrated our commitment by accepting equity in place of amounts owed to us. Patrick Tsang’s involvement represents another significant step toward attracting the experience and relationships we believe can accelerate our development.
Our ambitions are supported by tangible assets, technology-development programs, strategic agreements and business opportunities that we are working to bring to fruition.
I believe AIBotics is closer than ever to realizing the business we set out to build.
Our vision is to create a technology company with meaningful participation in the rapidly evolving markets for artificial intelligence, robotics, drones, autonomous systems and intelligent automation.
We believe the foundation is taking shape and the next phase of development offers the potential to translate years of preparation into meaningful commercial progress.
We have spent years preparing for this opportunity.
Now our focus is on execution — turning the technologies, assets and relationships we have assembled into operating businesses and long-term shareholder value.
On behalf of our board of directors and management team, thank you for your continued interest, confidence and support.
