ATLANTA, Jan. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Cingular Wireless, which is now solely
owned by AT&T Inc. (NYSE: T), today reported net income of $782 million for
the fourth quarter of 2006, which is a year-over-year increase of over 283
percent.
AT&T's wireless unit also turned in its best quarter ever in net
subscriber additions; attained, for the second quarter in a row, year-over-
year ARPU growth, including another robust increase in data ARPU; and
achieved double-digit growth in service and total revenues.
"Our last quarter as a joint venture operating under the Cingular name
was our best ever on a variety of fronts," said Stan Sigman, the company's
president and CEO. "We achieved strong results by delivering on four
strategic initiatives - build the best network, offer great products and
services, create unmatched distribution, and improve customer service.
Backed by the scale, scope, and capabilities of AT&T, we will continue to
focus on these initiatives and offer our customers the flexibility and
freedom of wireless services."
In the fourth quarter, the wireless unit reported 2.4 million net
customer additions, its highest ever, driven by continued low churn and
strong gross customer additions. This compares to 1.8 million in the
year-ago quarter and to 1.4 million in the third quarter of 2006. In the
fourth quarter, retail customers accounted for more than 1.6 million of
total net adds, a company record.
ARPU increased by nearly one percent in the fourth quarter, which was
the second quarter in a row of year-over-year overall ARPU increase. This
was driven by continued strong growth in data ARPU, which increased by 53
percent in the fourth quarter.
The unit's normalized OIBDA margin* was 34.4 percent, which was an
improvement of 340 basis points compared to normalized year-ago results and
a sequential decline of 120 points. The sequential decline resulted from
seasonally lower roaming revenues and higher marketing and advertising
costs, as well as from increased customer acquisition costs associated with
the record gross customer additions during the company's busiest selling
period.
Postpaid churn was 1.5 percent, which compares to 1.9 percent in the
year- ago quarter and is flat compared to the third quarter of 2006.
Overall monthly subscriber churn was 1.8 percent, which compares to 2.1
percent in the year-ago quarter and was flat compared to the third quarter
of 2006.
Gross additions for the fourth quarter were a record-tying 5.5 million,
which compares to 5.1 million in the year-ago quarter and to 4.6 million in
the third quarter of 2006.
The wireless unit ended the fourth quarter of 2006 with 61.0 million
cellular/PCS subscribers, tops among U.S. carriers, and a year-over-year
increase of 6.8 million customers. In addition, Cingular's Business Markets
Group signed more than 1,000 new and renewed high-end service contracts in
the quarter.
During the fourth quarter of 2006, 99 percent of minutes were carried
on Cingular's GSM/UMTS/HSDPA network and 96 percent of the company's
subscriber base was GSM/UMTS/HSDPA-equipped.
AT&T's wireless unit operates the nation's largest digital voice and
data network. GSM is the world's most widely used wireless technology.
Through roaming alliances with other GSM-based providers around the world,
Cingular provides the largest global presence of any U.S. wireless carrier,
with voice coverage in 190 countries and data roaming in 120.
Fourth-quarter financial results
-- In the fourth quarter of 2006, Cingular's total revenues were $9.8
billion, up 10.2 percent over revenues for the year-ago quarter and up 2.1
percent compared to the third quarter of 2006. Service revenues, which
exclude revenues from sales of handsets and accessories, were $8.8 billion,
which is a year-over-year increase of 13.1 percent and a sequential
improvement of 1.5 percent.
-- ARPU increased to $49.29. This compares to $48.86 in the year ago
quarter and to $49.76 in the third quarter of 2006. Continued growth in
data ARPU contributed to the year-over-year increase in overall ARPU.
-- Data ARPU increased to $7.19. This represents a year-over-year
improvement of 53 percent and a sequential jump of 14 percent. Data ARPU
growth was spurred by the increasing popularity of downloadable games,
ringtones, mobile instant messaging, mobile email, photo messaging, and
media bundles. In addition, text messaging continued to grow. In the fourth
quarter of 2006, the company had more than 32 million active data
customers, and delivered nearly 180 million multi-media messages and more
than 12 billion text messages.
-- Reported operating expenses were $8.4 billion, which included $115
million in OIBDA-affecting merger integration costs and $109 million
non-cash merger integration costs, for a total of $224 million. Operating
expenses also included $292 million in non-cash amortization of intangibles
as part of the 2004 merger with AT&T Wireless.
-- Reported fourth-quarter operating income margin was 13.6 percent, up
from 6.2 percent in the year-ago quarter. Normalized for merger-related
costs, operating income margin was 18.9 percent, up from 14.4 percent in
the fourth quarter of 2005.
-- Reported OIBDA margin was 33.1 percent. Normalized OIBDA margin* was
34.4 percent, which is an improvement of 340 basis points compared to
normalized year-ago results and a sequential decline of 120 points.
-- Reported operating income was $1.3 billion, which compares to $549
million in the year-ago quarter and to $1.4 billion in the third quarter of
2006. Normalized operating income was $1.8 billion, which compares to $1.3
billion in the year-ago quarter and to $1.9 billion in the third quarter of
2006.
-- Reported net income was $782 million, which compares to $204 million
in the year-ago quarter and to $847 million in the third quarter of 2006.
Normalized net income was $1.2 billion, which compares to $811 million in
the year-ago quarter and to $1.2 billion in the third quarter of 2006.
-- Capital expenditures in the fourth quarter were $2.2 billion. These
were driven by, among other developments: the continued introduction of
Cingular's powerful UMTS/HSDPA 3G technology, now in 165 cities, including
73 of the top 100 markets; ongoing, rapidly accelerating improvements in
network coverage and quality; and merger integration activities.
Fourth-quarter highlights and initiatives
-- AT&T's wireless unit continued its aggressive deployment of its 3G
UMTS/HSDPA network throughout the country, which offers mobile wireless
broadband connections averaging 400-700 kilobits per second. Customers can
use the 3G connections in 165 cities, including 73 of the top 100 markets,
to access e-mail and information services or watch streaming video clips
using Cingular Video.

Yahoo!, and XM Satellite Radio. Customers can enjoy their music on handsets
such as the Cingular SYNC (TM) by Samsung, a sleek new 3G multimedia
clamshell.
-- AT&T's wireless unit also announced an exclusive arrangement with
MySpace.com, the world's leading lifestyle portal, which gives Cingular
customers the ability to edit MySpace profiles, view and add friends, post
photos and blogs, send and receive MySpace messages, and much more - all
from their wireless phone.
-- Cingular continued to introduce innovative new products and services
for business customers, including, an array of smartphones and PDAs. In
just over a one-month period leading into the holiday shopping season, the
wireless unit introduced, among other products, the Cingular 8525 Pocket
PC, the first business-oriented handheld device in the U.S. to have
international 3G capabilities; the BlackBerry(R) Pearl(TM), with
Push-to-Talk talk capabilities; the HP iPAQ hw6920 series Mobile Messenger;
the Palm(R) Treo(TM) 680; and the HP Compaq nc6400 Notebook PC, the first

high-end service contracts during the fourth quarter of 2006. These
included business and government accounts such as Chicago Public Schools,
FujiFilm USA, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Manpower, U.S.
Department of Justice Criminal Justice Division, and the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration.
-- As the fourth quarter was ending and the new year just beginning,
Apple(R) and Cingular announced that Cingular will be Apple's exclusive
U.S. carrier for Apple's revolutionary iPhone. As part of this multi-year
relationship, Apple and Cingular are working together to provide innovative

Notes:
(1) OIBDA is defined as operating income (loss) before depreciation and
amortization. OIBDA differs from operating income (loss), as
calculated in accordance with GAAP, in that it excludes depreciation
and amortization. It differs from net income, as calculated in
accordance with GAAP, in that it excludes, as presented on our
Consolidated Statement of Income:
(1) depreciation and amortization, (2) interest expense, (3) minority
interest expense, (4) equity in net loss of affiliates, (5) other,
net, and (6) provision for income taxes. OIBDA does not give effect to
cash used for debt service requirements and thus does not reflect
available funds for distributions, reinvestment or other discretionary
uses. OIBDA is not presented as an alternative measure of operating
results or cash flows from operations, as determined in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles. Our calculation of
OIBDA, as presented, may differ from similarly titled measures
reported by other companies.
(2) OIBDA margin is defined as OIBDA divided by service revenues.
(3) Cellular/PCS customers include customers served through reseller
agreements.
(4) Cellular/PCS churn is calculated by dividing the aggregate number of
cellular/PCS customers who cancel service during each month in a
period by the total number of cellular/PCS customers at the beginning
of each month in that period.
(5) ARPU is defined as cellular/PCS service revenues during the period
divided by average cellular/PCS customers during the period.
(6) Total Minutes of Use Per Cellular/PCS Subscriber (MOUs) excludes SMS
activity but includes Local Minutes of Use and Outcollect Minutes of
Use in the numerator.
(7) Licensed POPs refers to the number of people residing in areas where
we and our partners have licenses to provide cellular or PCS service,
including areas where we have not yet commenced service.
(8) Penetration calculation for 4Q06 is based on licensed "operational"
POP's of 282 million.

the 1Q06 and YTD 2006 normalization of merger integration costs and
AT&T Wireless intangibles amortization expenses.
Notes:
(1) OIBDA is defined as operating income (loss) before depreciation and
amortization. OIBDA differs from operating income (loss), as
calculated in accordance with GAAP, in that it excludes depreciation
and amortization. It differs from net income, as calculated in
accordance with GAAP, in that it excludes, as presented on our
Consolidated Statement of Income:
(1) depreciation and amortization, (2) interest expense, (3) minority
interest expense, (4) equity in net loss of affiliates, (5) other,
net, and (6) provision for income taxes.
OIBDA does not give effect to cash used for debt service requirements
and thus does not reflect available funds for distributions,
reinvestment or other discretionary uses. OIBDA is
not presented as an alternative measure of operating results or cash
flows from operations, as determined in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. Our calculation
of OIBDA, as presented, may differ from similarly titled measures
reported by other companies.
(2) OIBDA margin is defined as OIBDA divided by service revenues.
(3) Cellular/PCS customers include customers served through reseller
agreements.
(4) Cellular/PCS churn is calculated by dividing the aggregate number of
cellular/PCS customers who cancel service during each month in a
period by the total number of cellular/PCS customers at the beginning
of each month in that period.
(5) ARPU is defined as cellular/PCS service revenues during the period
divided by average cellular/PCS customers during the period.
(6) Total Minutes of Use Per Cellular/PCS Subscriber (MOUs) excludes SMS
activity but includes Local Minutes of Use and Outcollect Minutes of
Use in the numerator.
(7) Licensed POPs refers to the number of people residing in areas where
we and our partners have licenses to provide cellular or PCS service,
including areas where we have not yet commenced service.
(8) Penetration calculation for 4Q06 is based on licensed "operational"
POP's of 282 million.

AT&T Mobility LLC (formerly Cingular Wireless LLC) Income Statement,
Normalized - amounts in millions (unaudited)
The normalized financial data presented below exclude the impact of: 1)
integration costs that are cash outlays, or specified non-cash charges,
directly related to the acquisition of AT&T Wireless; 2) amortization of
intangibles associated with the AT&T Wireless acquisition; and 3) costs
related to impact of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in the third and fourth
quarters of 2005.
Integration costs would not have been incurred if not for the
acquisition, as they support the utilization and/or disposal of the
acquired assets. Integration costs are separately identifiable from
business as usual outlays. Costs recognized in connection with certain
rationalization plans approved by management have also been included
beginning in the second quarter of 2005.
Examples of merger integration costs impacting expenses include (but
are not limited to) the following:
* Network rationalization (write-offs and accelerated depreciation
related to certain "overlap" network assets)
* Sales distribution optimization (lease terminations, leasehold
improvement write-offs/accelerated depreciation)
* Workforce rationalization (severance, relocation, retention)
* IT System/Application rationalization (system/platform consolidation,
contract termination fees, third party support)
* Real Estate space rationalization (lease terminations, leasehold
improvements write-offs and accelerated depreciation, contract
termination fees)

Notes:
(1) OIBDA is defined as operating income before depreciation and
amortization. OIBDA differs from operating income, as calculated in
accordance with GAAP, in it excludes depreciation and amortization.
It differs from net income, as calculated in accordance with GAAP, in
that it excludes, as presented on our Consolidated Statement of
Income:
(1) depreciation and amortization, (2) interest expense, (3) minority
interest expense, (4) equity in net income (loss) of affiliates, (5)
other, net, and (6) provision for income taxes. OIBDA does not give
effect to cash used for debt service requirements and thus does not
reflect available funds for distributions, reinvestment or other
discretionary uses. OIBDA is not presented as an alternative measure
of operating results or cash flows from operations, as determined in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our
calculation of OIBDA, as presented, may differ from similarly titled
measures reported by other companies.
(2) OIBDA margin is defined as OIBDA divided by service revenues.
(3) Cellular/PCS customers include customers served through reseller
agreements.
(4) Cellular/PCS customer churn is calculated by dividing the aggregate
number of cellular/PCS customers who cancel service during each month
in a period by the total number of cellular/PCS customers at the
beginning of each month in that period.
(5) ARPU is defined as cellular/PCS service revenues during the period
divided by average cellular/PCS customers during the period.
