EXPLANATORY NOTE
Breda Telephone Corp. ("Breda") is filing this Amendment No. 2 to its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 28, 2007 (the "Original 10-KSB") and amended December 20, 2007 (“Amendment No. 1”) to amend the Original 10-KSB by substituting the "Item 7 Financial Information" for the financial statements contained in Item 7 in the Original 10-KSB. Amendment No. 2 substitutes “Item 7 Financial Information” for Item 7 of Amendment No. 1 (being the audited financial statements of Breda for the year ended December 31, 2006) and, more specifically, adds and includes the now unqualified audit opinion of Kiesling Associates LLP. Other than the addition of the referenced audit opinion, all of the information in the financial statements, and the other information in the Original 10-KSB, remains unchanged and is not otherwise amended hereby.
The original audit opinion was dated May 24, 2007. The attached unqualified opinion is dated November 17, 2008. In the attached opinion, the auditors state that in their report dated January 27, 2006 (except for West Iowa Cellular, Inc. and RSA #7, Ltd. described in Note 4, for which the date is August 23, 2007), they had expressed an opinion that they were unable to examine evidence regarding the investment and earnings of RSA No. 9 Limited Partnership. As of the date of this opinion the auditors were able to obtain audited financial statements for 2005 supporting the Company's investment in RSA No. 9 Limited Partnership as described in Note 4 to the financial statements.
Except with respect to the scope of the opinion, there were no changes to the financial statements for the years ending December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005.
This Form 10-KSB/A does not modify or update other information in the Original 10-KSB and does not purport to provide an update of any developments regarding Breda subsequent to the filing of the Original 10-KSB.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Breda Telephone Corporation and Subsidiaries
Breda, Iowa
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Breda Telephone Corporation (an Iowa corporation) and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as, evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our report dated January 27, 2006, except for West Iowa Cellular, Inc. and RSA #7, Ltd. described in Note 4, for which the date is August 23, 2007, we expressed an opinion that we were unable to examine evidence regarding the investment and earnings of RSA No. 9 Limited Partnership. As of the date of this opinion we were able to obtain audited financial statements for 2005 supporting the Company’s investment in RSA No. 9 Limited Partnership as described in Note 4.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Breda Telephone Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

| SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Nature of Business
The Breda Telephone Corporation (herein referred to as “the Company”) is a provider of telecommunications exchange and local access services, long distance services, cable television services and Internet services in a service area located primarily in western Iowa. The Company is also involved in retail sales of cellular equipment and service plans for cellular partnerships of which it owns interests, and sales of other telecommunications equipment.
Basis of Presentation
The accounting policies of the Company and its subsidiaries conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing its consolidated financial statements. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent revenues and expenses. Telephone operations reflect practices appropriate to the telephone industry. The accounting records of the telephone companies are maintained in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts for Class A and B Telephone Companies prescribed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) as modified by the state regulatory authority.
The accounting records for the Company’s cable television operations are maintained in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts for CATV Companies prescribed by the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its 100% owned subsidiaries, Prairie Telephone Co., Inc., Tele-Services, Ltd., and Westside Independent Telephone Company. The financial statements of Prairie Telephone Co., Inc. include the accounts of Prairie and its 100% owned subsidiary, BTC, Inc. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Cash Equivalents
All highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase are considered cash equivalents.
Investments
Marketable debt and equity securities bought and held principally for selling in the near future are classified as trading securities and carried at fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses on trading securities are reported in earnings. Marketable debt and equity securities classified as available-for-sale are carried at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses recorded as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.
NOTE 1. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) |
Investments (Continued)
Debt securities for which the Company has both the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity and are carried at amortized cost. The Company uses the specific identification method of computing realized gains and losses.
Nonmarketable equity investments, over which the Company has significant influence or a 20% ownership, are reflected on the equity method. Other nonmarketable equity investments are stated at cost.
Inventory
Inventory includes both merchandise held for resale and material and supplies. Merchandise held for resale is recorded at the lower of cost or market with cost determined by the average cost method. Materials and supplies, used in the construction of the Company’s facilities to provide telecommunications services, are recorded at average cost.
Goodwill
Goodwill is deemed to have an indefinite life and is stated at the lower of cost or fair value. The asset is subject to periodic impairment tests.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Telephone and cable television plant are capitalized at original cost including the capitalized cost of salaries and wages, materials, certain payroll taxes, employee benefits and interest incurred during the construction period.
The Company provides for depreciation for financial reporting purposes on the straight-line method by the application of rates based on the estimated service lives of the various classes of depreciable property. These estimates are subject to change in the near term.
Renewals and betterments of units of property are charged to telephone and cable television plant in service. When plant is retired, its cost is removed from the asset account and charged against accumulated depreciation less any salvage realized. No gains or losses are recognized in connection with routine retirements of depreciable property. Repairs and renewals of minor items of property are included in plant specific operations expense.
Repairs of other property, as well as renewals of minor items of property are included in plant specific operations expense. A gain or loss is recognized when other property is sold or retired.
NOTE 1. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) |
Long-Lived Assets
The Company would provide for impairment losses on long-lived assets when indicators of impairment are present and the estimated undiscounted cash flows to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amount. Based on current conditions, management does not believe any of its long-lived assets are impaired.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for using a liability method and provide for the tax effects of transactions reported in the consolidated financial statements including both taxes currently due and deferred. Deferred taxes are adjusted to reflect deferred tax consequences at current enacted tax rates. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company’s deferred taxes arise from differences between the book and tax basis of plant assets, certain investments and goodwill. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible, when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenues when earned regardless of the period in which they are billed. The Company is required to provide telephone service to subscribers within its defined service territory.
Local network, Internet and cable television service revenues are recognized over the period a subscriber is connected to the network.
Network access and long distance service revenues are derived from charges for access to the Company’s local exchange network. The interstate portion of access revenues is based on an average schedule settlement formula administered by the National Exchange Carrier Association (NECA), which is regulated by the FCC. The intrastate portion of access revenues is billed based upon the Company’s tariff for access charges filed with the Iowa Utilities Board (IUB). The charges developed from these tariffs are used to bill the connecting long distance provider and revenues are recognized in the period the traffic is transported based on the minutes of traffic carried. Long distance revenues are recognized at the time a call is placed based on the minutes of traffic processed at contracted rates.
Other revenues include contractually determined arrangements for the provision of billing and collecting services and are recognized in the period when the services are performed. Cellular sales and commission revenues are recognized at the time of customer activation.
The Company uses the reserve method to recognize uncollectible customer accounts.

The note with Desktop Media, L.L.C., (Desktop) had an original balance of $500,000 and an original maturity in 2006. Interest on the note balance accrues at the rate of prime plus 1 percent (prime + 1%) per annum. The interest rate is adjusted on the anniversary of the note. The note is shown net of an unamortized discount of $814 at December 31, 2005. Principal payments of $12,000 plus interest were due the first of each month beginning May of 2003 and were due each month thereafter until paid in full. On September 17, 2003, the Company signed a principal deferral agreement with Desktop to defer principal payments due in the months of September through December 2003.
The Company has recorded allowances of $219,691 and $219,691 at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively due to the fact that it has not received the scheduled monthly principal payments required by the note agreement. In 2005, the Company recorded an additional allowance of $46,717 on the note receivable. The Company’s ownership in Desktop Media, L.L.C. increased to 17% in 2004 when certain conditions of a loan deferral agreement were not met, and as a result, the Company subsequently began to report its Desktop investment on the equity basis. The additional allowance represents losses in excess of the Company’s cost in the Desktop investment.

The ISP services segment provides Internet access to customers within the local exchanges and the surrounding areas.

NOTE 10. | NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE |
Net income per common share for 2006 and 2005 was computed by dividing the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding into the net income. The weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 were 31,021 and 31,092, respectively.
NOTE 11. | STOCK VALUE ADJUSTMENT |
During July 2006, the board of directors authorized a $37 increase in the stated value of each share of common stock from $357 to $394. There were 31,023 shares outstanding at the time of the value adjustment, which reduced retained earnings by $1,147,851.
During May 2005, the board of directors authorized a $31 increase in the stated value of each share of common stock from $326 to $357. There were 31,170 shares outstanding at the time of the value adjustment, which reduced retained earnings by $966,270.
NOTE 12. | STOCK RESTRICTIONS |
The Company has one class of common stock. Each shareholder is entitled to one vote regardless of the number of shares owned. Restrictions on the stock include the following:
| · | Individuals purchasing new shares of stock must be living within the service areas of the Company and subscribe to its telephone services. In addition, new stockholders are limited to purchasing no more than thirty shares of stock directly from the Company. |
| · | Stockholders are limited to ownership of not more than one percent of the outstanding shares of stock unless ownership was prior to the restated Articles of Incorporation. |
| · | Stockholders shall not sell any shares of stock owned unless the Company has been given first right of refusal. |
| · | In households with multiple individuals, only one person must be deemed the subscriber of Company services. |
| · | A one-time stock transfer to a family member (spouse, child, grandchild, parent, grandparent, or sibling) is allowed for shareholders of record for the shares they held in 1995 even if such transferee resides outside of the telephone exchange service area and is not a subscriber of the Company’s telephone services. |
| · | Stock transfers require consent of the board of directors. |
The Company may adopt bylaws, which may further restrict the transfer or ownership of capital stock of the Company.
NOTE 13. | EMPLOYEE BENEFITS |
The Company has a defined benefit pension plan covering most employees. The multi employer retirement program is with the National Telephone Cooperative Association (NTCA) and has been approved by the Internal Revenue Service. Pension costs expensed and capitalized for 2006 and 2005 were $144,376 and $149,427, respectively. The Company makes annual contributions to the plan equal to amounts accrued for pension expense.
NOTE 14. | ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION |
Generally accepted accounting principles require entities to record the fair value of a liability for legal obligations associated with an asset retirement in the period in which the obligations are incurred. When the liability is initially recorded, the entity capitalizes the cost of the asset retirement obligation by increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Over time, the liability is accreted to its present value each period, and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset.
The Company has determined it does not have a material legal obligation to remove long-term assets and accordingly, there have been no liabilities recorded for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.
NOTE 15. | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS |
The Company receives commission revenue from RSA #9, Ltd. Partnership (RSA #9) based on cellular service activation and retention. The Company has a 16.7% ownership interest in RSA #9. Commissions received by the Company for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 were approximately $1,111,000 and $1,144,000, respectively. At December 31, 2006 and 2005, $147,351 and $125,260 were due from RSA #9 for commissions.
NOTE 16. | CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK |
The Company grants credit to local service customers, all of whom are located in the service area, broadcast customers, Internet customers and telecommunications intrastate and interstate long distance carriers.
The Company received 51% of its 2006 revenues from access revenues and assistance provided by the Federal Universal Service Fund. As a result of the Telecommunications Act of 1996, the manner in which access revenues and Universal Service Funds are determined is currently being modified by regulatory bodies.
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, along with both temporary and long-term investments. The Company places its cash, cash equivalents and investments in several financial institutions which limits the amount of credit exposure in any one financial institution.
The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.
NOTE 17. | CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING METHOD |
The Company has restated its income from equity investments for the year ended December 31, 2005. The Company determined to restate its income from equity investments from the accepted method of a twelve-month period ending September 30th to a better method of a twelve-month period ending December 31st, when calendar year financial statements became available for each of the years ending 2005 and 2006 for these investments. The Company determined to make the change in accounting method to have uniformity in its reporting period for all of the financial information presented in its financial statements.
NOTE 17. | CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING METHOD (Continued) |
The change in accounting method in 2005 resulted in a $103,976 increase in income from equity investments. Net of the income tax expense increase of $40,775, the 2005 net income increased $63,201. Net income per common share increased to $60.40 per share from $58.37 per share.
The result of the change in accounting method is a change in retained earnings at December 31, 2004 of $153,315.
NOTE 18. | NONCASH INVESTING ACTIVITIES |
Noncash investing activities included $2,042 during the year ended December 31, 2006 relating to plant and equipment additions placed in service during 2006, which are reflected in accounts payable at year end.
