NewMarket Technology, Inc. Anticipates Timely Filing of Annual Report Detailing Strong Organic Revenue Growth and Net Income Results for 2007

DALLAS, TX--(Marketwire - March 18, 2008) - NewMarket Technology, Inc. (OTCBB: NMKT) announced today that the company fully anticipates filing their annual report for 2007 on Form 10k in a timely manner.

CEO, Philip M. Verges, stated, "We wanted to let shareholders know that management is working diligently toward a timely filing and that we do not foresee, at this time, any issue with a timely filing. Given the prevailing market conditions impacting the share price of many publicly listed companies and the corresponding impact to the confidence of shareholders in the impacted public companies, we wanted to communicate our expectation to file the 2007 report in a timely manner. We expect the 2007 annual report to reflect strong organic revenue growth and continued net income improvement."

The Company has received a number of communications from shareholders expressing concern that some undisclosed event might account for the recent share price performance. Last week, the Company published a letter to shareholders addressing the prevailing market conditions and reporting that management could point to no operational event that would account for the current share price performance. The letter provides an update on the plan to align share price with the fundamental financial performance of the Company. The letter also provides an overview of market conditions to further frame the consideration of NewMarket's current share price performance.
