New Energy Systems Group Increases 2010 Adjusted EPS Guidance from $1.23 to $1.40

SHENZHEN, China, Dec. 8, 2010 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ -- New Energy Systems Group (NYSE Amex: NEWN) ("New Energy" or the "Company"), a vertically integrated original design manufacturer and distributor of lithium ion batteries and backup power systems, today raised its full year 2010 guidance as illustrated below:  

"We are pleased to be able to raise our 2010 guidance," began Mr. Jack Yu, Chairman of New Energy. "We are experiencing good momentum as the use of portable electronics devices such as those made by Apple and RIM drive demand across all our product lines.  To a small extent our increased guidance also reflects the accretive impact of the Kim Fai acquisition which we closed on November 10, 2010. However, since that acquisition will only be reflected in our 2010 consolidated results for less than two months, the earnings per share accretion from this acquisition will not be fully evident until 2011. While we have increased our 2010 guidance significantly, we believe the revised guidance is conservative."

OUTLOOK FOR 2011

Mr. Jack Yu, Chairman of New Energy, continued, "We are currently engaged in our planning process for next year and will provide specific guidance for 2011 during the first quarter of 2011.  As we introduce new products and further expand our distribution, we are confident that we will sustain strong growth in 2011.  We expect our core business to grow significantly next year, especially the Anytone® product line and our suite of products 'Made for iPhone, iPod and iPad'.  As previously stated, we also expect the Kim Fai acquisition to contribute approximately $5.0 million of net income in 2011.  We currently have approximately 14.5 million fully diluted shares outstanding, which includes the 1.9 million shares issued for the Kim Fai acquisition.  As a result of our healthy balance sheet and strong cash flow, we have no near-term need to raise equity to finance our current operations."
