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.

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."
