NewMarket Technology, Inc. Pre-Announces 2006 Revenue Surpassing $74 Million and Net Income Over $4 Million.

Company Files Extension to Accommodate Q1 '07 Increased Legal and Accounting Activity Resulting from Independent Listing of Two Subsidiary Operations

DALLAS -- NewMarket Technology, Inc. (OTCBB: NMKT) announced today the filing of SEC Form NT to extend the reporting deadline for the 2006 Annual Report. In conjunction with the extension, NewMarket further pre-announces that the 2006 annual revenue has exceeded $74 million in revenue, surpassing the company's forecast of $70 million, and that the company has achieved a record net income of more than $4 million in 2006. The delay in filing is due to increased legal and accounting activity in the first quarter of 2007, resulting from the transactions executed to independently list NewMarket's Latin American and Broadband Wireless subsidiaries.

(See below for more information regarding NewMarket's strategy to independently list subsidiary operations and for specific details regarding the two transactions executed in the first quarter of 2007)

NewMarket Technology, Inc. CEO Philip Verges Stated:

"NewMarket is transitioning from a small sized business with a global reach into a medium sized business with a global reach. In the first quarter of 2007, we have completed the listing of two of our subsidiary operations. This transition and initiation of our strategy to independently list subsidiary operations has substantially increased our legal and accounting activity. Our auditor has completed his field studies of our global operations and our management team is confident that the final results of operations in 2006 will show a record income quarter and fiscal year. Nevertheless, we believe it is prudent, in the face of all the increased legal and accounting activity, to take advantage of the regulatory accommodation to extend the filing period to ensure an annual report publication of the best possible quality. We do not want shareholders to speculate that unexpectedly poor financial performance might be the cause of delayed reporting. To alleviate unnecessary speculation of a negative financial report, we are pre-announcing that the 2006 revenue has exceeded the previously announced forecast and that net income reflects record fourth quarter and annual results. We look forward to releasing the definitive results of operations and plan to further detail the results in an open web conference call to be announced when the annual report is released."

Strategy to Independently List Subsidiaries and Issue Stock Dividends

The independent listing of NewMarket subsidiaries is an integral part of the Company's overall growth strategy and central to NewMarket's plan to enhance shareholder value. NewMarket independently listed subsidiaries can utilize their own public stock to acquire and fund further emerging technology growth without relying on NewMarket stock for financing the growth. Concurrently, NewMarket's financial performance benefits from the rapid growth of consolidated self funding subsidiaries. NewMarket shareholders can directly monetize the investment that NewMarket has made in its subsidiaries' assets when NewMarket distributes stock in the independently listed subsidiary operations to NewMarket shareholders through dividend distributions.

Independently Listed China, Latin America and Broad Band Wireless Subsidiaries

NewMarket now has three independently listed subsidiaries. NewMarket recently announced the completion of a transaction with Diamond I, Inc. (OTCBB: DMOI) to effectively list NewMarket's Broadband wireless operations with a 2007 forecast of $10 million. NewMarket also recently announced the completion of a transaction with Paragon Financial Corp. (OTC: PGNF) to effectively list NewMarket's Latin America operations, which are expected to report over $20 million in 2006 profitable revenue. In the fourth quarter of last year, NewMarket completed the independent listing of its operations in China. The operations name has recently been changed to NewMarket China, Inc. (OTCBB: NMCH). The operations consolidated into NewMarket China are anticipated to report 2006 revenue substantially exceeding $20 million with a 2007 forecast of $40 million in revenue. The Diamond I and Paragon names will similarly be changed shortly to reflect each company's new direction within the NewMarket fold. NewMarket intends to issue stock in each of these three subsidiaries to NewMarket shareholders through dividend distributions over the next 12 to 18 months.
