Do they at any time say how much faster than light are those neutrinos moving? 1% faster? 100 times faster? I couldn't see that info anywhere.

0.002% faster.
+/- 0.002%
"+/- 0.002%"

How did you derive a negative bound? A negative bound suggests that arrival times could be slower than c.

The paper indicates that arrival times are always faster than c.

From the paper:

"An early arrival time of CNGS muon neutrinos with respect to the one computed assuming the speed of light in vacuum of (60.7 ± 6.9 (stat.) ± 7.4 (sys.)) ns was measured."

Perhaps my one-word comment was an insufficient indicator of my sarcasm. 't'was a joke, good sir.
a velocity 20 parts per million above the speed of light
