REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Maxcom Telecomunicaciones, S. A. B. de C. V.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Maxcom Telecomunicaciones, S. A. B. de C. V. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2008. 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 audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and with auditing standards generally accepted in Mexico. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Maxcom Telecomunicaciones, S. A. B. de C. V. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2008, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2008, in conformity with Mexican Financial Reporting Standards.
As disclosed in note 6 to the consolidated financial statements, several new Mexican Financial Reporting Standards were adopted on January 1, 2008.
As mentioned in note 5q to the consolidated financial statements, the Company carried out significant transactions with certain suppliers.
Mexican Financial Reporting Standards vary in certain significant respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Information relating to the nature and effect of such differences is presented in note 21 to the consolidated financial statements.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Maxcom Telecomunicaciones, S. A. B. de C. V.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated June 25, 2009 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Maxcom Telecomunicaciones, S. A. B. de C. V.:
We have audited Maxcom Telecomunicaciones, S. A. B. de C. V.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, based on criteria established inInternal Control — Integrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Maxcom Telecomunicaciones, S. A. B. de C. V.’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit 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 effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, Maxcom Telecomunicaciones, S. A. B. de C. V. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, based on criteria established inInternal Control — Integrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and with auditing standards generally accepted in Mexico, the consolidated balance sheet of Maxcom Telecomunicaciones, S. A. B. de C. V. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2008, and our report dated June 25, 2009, expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

MAXCOM TELECOMUNICACIONES, S. A. B. DE C. V. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Thousands of Mexican pesos — note 5)
NOTE 1 — ENTITY, INCORPORATION AND CHANGE OF INCORPORATION STRUCTURE:
Maxcom Telecomunicaciones, S. A.B. de C. V. (“Maxcom” or the “Company”), is a Mexican company incorporated on February 28, 1996. Its main corporate purpose is the construction and operation of a telephone network, voice over IP, local, national and international long-distance telephony services, public telephony, data transfer services, internet, pay TV, virtual private network services and other value-added services, within Mexico. The Company also provides mobile telephony services as a virtual mobile network operator. The Company began its commercial operations in May 1999.
Pursuant to the resolutions adopted by the shareholders at the General Extraordinary and Ordinary Shareholders Meetings held on September 13, 2007, and by virtue of the public offering of shares carried out by the Company in Mexico and abroad, Maxcom was denominated as a publicly listed stock company with variable capital (“sociedad anónima bursátil de capital variable” or “S.A.B. de C. V.”). Now, the Company is subject not only to the applicable provisions of the Business Corporations Law but to the stock exchange regulations under the Stock Exchange Laws in Mexico and the United States of America, as well as the supervision of the National Banking and Securities Commission (“NBSC”, “Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores” or “CNBV”) and the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Upon the terms of such resolutions, the by-laws of the Company were amended in their entirety to conform them to the Stock Exchange Act and ancillary regulations.
NOTE 2 — CONCESSIONS, FREQUENCY RIGHTS AND INTERCONNECTION AGREEMENTS:
Concessions:
On February 3, 1997, the Mexican Ministry of Communications and Transportation (“Secretaría de Comunicaciones y Transportes” or “SCT”) awarded the Company a concession to install and operate a public telecommunications network in Mexico (the “concession”). This concession is not exclusive. The initial term of the concession is 30 years and includes certain renewal rights. Subsequently, on December 7, 1999, September 27, 2001 and December 2, 2004, the Company received amendments to the initial terms and conditions of the concession.
F-9
MAXCOM TELECOMUNICACIONES, S. A. B. DE C. V. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Thousands of Mexican pesos — note 5)
The concession grants the Company the right to provide local, national and international long-distance telephony services, data transfer services and other value-added services in any part of the Republic of Mexico and, under the last amendment dated December 2, 2004, certain obligations were set forth for the Company, as described in note 20d.
On August 4, 2006, the SCT granted Maxcom a concession to provide cable television services (traditional) and audio in the city of Puebla. Shortly thereafter, the SCT issued the Convergence Regulations, under which different types of telecommunications service providers are authorized to provide certain services in addition to those included under the original concessions.
On January 17, 2007, the Mexican Federal Telecommunications Commission (“Comisión Federal de Telecomunicaciones” or “COFETEL”) authorized Maxcom to provide mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) services, based on its 1996 concession. This authorization allows Maxcom to provide mobile telephone services throughout Mexico using its own brand, acquiring capacity from other concessionaires of this service in Mexico. As a result of this authorization, Maxcom is the first, and thus far, the only telecommunications concessionaire to offer quadruple-play services (voice, video, data and cellular) on an extensive basis under its own brand name. The terms of the cable television and restricted radio concession and the MVNO authorization match the thirty-year term (expiring in 2026) of the concession granted in 1996 and impose no further obligations, including minimum coverage or investment commitments.
Frequency rights:
On October 3, 1997, the Mexican Federal Government through the SCT granted the Company ten concession rights (the “frequency rights”) to use and exploit different bands of the radio-electric spectrum and to establish point-to-point and point-to-multi-point microwave links; seven are nationwide point-to-point and three are regional point-to multipoint microwave concessions. The frequency rights became effective on February 28, 1998, and shall remain in effect until 2018, see note 9.
In accordance with the terms of these frequency rights concessions, the Company must provide to the SCT a guarantee on its operations in the form of a surety bond and renew it every year, see note 20e.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Thousands of Mexican pesos — note 5)
Convergence agreement:
On October 2, 2006, the Mexican Federal Government, through the SCT, issued a non-binding agreement for the rendering of services in convergence, which is known as “Agreement of Convergence of Fixed Services of Local Telephony and Restricted Audio and/or Television that are provided through Wired and Wireless Public Networks” (“Convergence Agreement”).
The convergence agreement allows certain concessionaires of services of telecommunications to provide other services not included in the original concessions that were granted to them. The suppliers of cable television will now be able to provide the service of internet and telephony. Also the telephony operators, like Maxcom, will now be able to provide restricted services of audio and/or video. On October 13, 2006, Maxcom notified the SCT its compliance and voluntary adhesion to the Convergence Agreement and, therefore, the SCT authorized to provide the restricted services of audio and video besides to the previously authorized as a part of the original concessions of the public telecommunications network.
Interconnection agreements:
On January 22, 1999, the Company entered into a contract to provide local interconnection services (the “agreement”) with Teléfonos de México, S. A. B. de C. V. (“Telmex”), whereby Maxcom agrees to render Telmex interconnection services to finish Telmex’s long-distance traffic in Maxcom’s local network.
Likewise, the Company subscribed an interconnection agreement to handle Maxcom’s long distance traffic towards Telmex’s local network.
The Company has negotiated the signing of various amending agreements to the contract with Telmex, to extend the original term of that contract, irrespective of the fact that the contract provides that the interconnection between the two companies is carried out based on the clause of “continuous application”. This clause sets forth that upon termination of the first period, the original terms and conditions of the contract will continue in full force and effect until the parties sign a new contract to continue interconnecting their networks. This contract has had yearly updates up until now.
During 2003 and 2002, the Company entered into various interconnection and reselling agreements with other local and long distance carriers and mobile phone companies, as well as agreements which allow the Company to render public telephony services through the capacity acquired from mobile networks.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Thousands of Mexican pesos — note 5)
On September 7, 2006 a trust agreement was signed between the former owners of the Grupo Telereunion companies and Maxcom. The purpose of this trust agreement is to provide a mechanism to ensure the performance of certain obligations of the former owners of the Grupo Telereunion companies, as seller of the shares, by allowing to making certain price adjustments to the 8.54 million dollars acquisition cost of the shares, if necessary. The 7,487,283 Series N Maxcom’s shares pertaining to the new shareholder were deposited in the trust. See note 15.
Because the expiration date for the trust was reached, and the conditions were met on November 12, 2007, an agreement was signed extinguishing the trust described in the preceding paragraph. The responsibility to compensate Maxcom for any loss or liabilities that might arise due to any event preceding the acquisition remains with the former owners of Grupo Telereunion.

NOTE 5 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are expressed in thousands of Mexican pesos, and have been prepared in accordance with the Mexican Financial Reporting Standards (“MFRS”, “Mexican GAAP”, or “NIF”, for its initials in Spanish as described below) applicable at the balance sheet date.
Financial statements for 2007 and prior years are expressed in constant pesos as of December 31, 2007 the last date when the restatement was made according to the previous Statement B-10 “Recognition of the Effect of Inflation in Financial Information” which was replaced by NIF B-10, Effects of Inflation.
On June 25, 2009, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of these consolidated financial statements which are subject to approval by the General Shareholders’ Meeting that could decide their modification in accordance to the Mexican Corporate Law (“Ley General de Sociedades Mercantiles”).
For disclosure purposes in the notes to the consolidated financial statements when referring to pesos or “$” it should be understood as thousands of Mexican Pesos, and when to referring to dollars or USD it should be understood as thousands of United States dollars, the legal currency in the United States of America.
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make a number of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include, but are no limited to, the carrying amount of telephone network systems and equipment, intangible assets, preoperating expenses and frequency rights, including depreciation and amortization rates, assumptions made for the calculation of the impairment test to long lived assets; valuation allowances for receivables, inventories, construction in progress of telephone network systems and equipment and deferred income tax assets; valuation of financial instruments; and obligations related to employee benefits. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
The significant accounting policies used by the Company in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements, including the items, methods and criteria related to the recognition of the effects of inflation on the financial information, are summarized below:

The temporary investments include investments denominated in local currency and dollars. Investments in national currency usually provide daily liquidity and are made in repurchase agreements. The dollar investments are made with highly reputable financial institutions in the United States of America through low risk money market funds. These funds provide daily liquidity and give the highest financial return while preserving the value of the principal invested, by investing in instruments with the highest market credit rating. During 2008, the Company held most of its investments with Smith-Barney Citi Group. At any given time, temporary investments are valued at market value. During 2008, there were no impairments recorded on any of our investments.

Inventory consists of materials used to install telephone lines and network build-out, as well as its sale cost, are originally registered at average cost and up to December 31, 2007 were subsequently updated by the application of factors derived from the NCPI. The values thus determined do not exceed their market value. The allowance for obsolescence and slow-moving is evaluated on a six months basis and according to the results of this evaluation, products are subject to a slow-moving or obsolescence allowance.
d. | | Telephone network systems and equipment |
Telephone network systems and equipment are recorded at acquisition cost and until December 31, 2007 were restated by applying factors derived from the NCPI.
The Company constructs certain of its own network systems and related facilities. Internal costs directly related to the construction of such facilities are capitalized. The amounts capitalized during 2008, 2007 and 2006 were $88,478, $72,052 and $ 47,753, respectively.
The Company capitalizes the comprehensive financing costs attributable to assets under construction. Capitalized comprehensive financing cost includes interest expense, gains from monetary position (until December 31, 2007), and foreign exchange losses, and are determined by reference to the Company’s average interest cost on borrowings. See note 18.
Installation costs include labor, tools and supplies. Installation costs related to commercial customers are capitalized and amortized on a straight line basis for a period of 20 years. Installation costs capitalized are expensed once the relationship with the customer is terminated.
When the Company invoices its residential customers for installation fees, any associated cost is recognized as an expense in the statement of operations.
Depreciation is calculated by the straight-line method over the restated cost, based on the estimated useful lives of the assets. Depreciation is charged to results of operations.

During 2007 the Company performed a technical study on the remaining useful lives of the public telephony equipment, based on the opinion of a specialist. As a result thereof, useful lives were decreased from 17 to 8 years. The Company recalculated the amount of depreciation expense related to these assets for the year 2007, which amounted to $33,231. If depreciation would have been estimated based on the previous remaining useful lives, the depreciation expense for the year 2007 would have been of $16,011.
Maintenance and minor repairment costs are charged to results as incurred; replacement and improvement costs are capitalized. The cost and related allowances of assets sold or retired are removed from the accounts, and any resulting profit or loss is reflected in the statement of results of operations.
Intangible assets are recognized in the balance sheet as long as they are identifiable, they provide future economic benefits, and the Company has control over such benefits. Intangible assets with a definite useful life are amortized systematically based on the best estimation of its useful life, as determined in accordance with the expected future economic benefits.
Purchased software and certain activities of developing internal-use software are capitalized and amortized over their expected useful lives. Other activities, such as training, maintenance and re-engineering are recognized in the results of the period, as incurred.
Debt issuance costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related debt. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, capitalized expenses for the new debt issuance amount to $62,283 and $60,340, respectively. See note 8.
At the end of the year 2006, in accordance to NIF C-9 “Liabilities, Accruals, Contingent Assets and Liabilities and Commitments” , Company’s management determined that the issuance of Bonds made on December 2006, represented a new debt in accordance with the provisions specified in such NIF, thus any remaining balances for debt issued in prior years, were written off. The expenses incurred for the issuance of the new debt are being amortized in an 8 year period. The anticipated amortization of the old debt amounted to $17,671, which, in accordance with the new NIF B-3 “Income Statement” is included within the category of other expenses in the statement of operations at December 31, 2006 (in the statement of operations for that year this amount was presented as a special item).

As previously mentioned (note 2), the SCT awarded the Company, at no cost, a concession to install and operate a public telecommunications network for a 30-year period. In accordance with Statement C-8 “Intangible Assets” of NIF, this concession has no recorded value for financial reporting purposes and it is only disclosed in a note to these consolidated financial statements.
Frequency rights are recorded at their acquisition cost and until December 31, 2007 were restated by applying factors derived from the NCPI as from the acquisition date. Amortization is calculated by the straight-line method over 20 years, which is the term of the frequency rights. See note 9.
All expenses incurred during the development stage or in specific projects in progress up to December 31, 2002 were capitalized. Those expenses are amortized by the straight-line method over a 10-year period. The amortization period begins when the corresponding project starts up operations.
For the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, the Company recorded amortization expense in the amounts of $22,123, $ 19,983 and $ 36,433, respectively. Also as of December 31, 2008 the Company made an adjustment based on the impairment recorded of $4,915. Accumulated amortization was $334,767 and $ 312,644 as of December the 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
i. | | Impairment of long lived assets. |
The Company evaluates values of long lived assets when there are events or changes that reveal an indication of potential impairment. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net income expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated net income, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount that the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Given the current economic situation there is a strong reliance on judgment to evaluate if the indication of potential impairment to long lived assets should give rise to an impairment valuation.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Thousands of Mexican pesos — note 5)
As of December 31, 2008, the carrying amount of long-lived assets was higher than the expected discounted income at the Company’s theoretical rate for weighted average cost of capital under current market conditions. The impairment charge (a non-cash item) calculated for 2008 amounted to $532,315. Said charge was proportionately distributed throughout the different asset classes. See notes 5(h), 7, 8, and 9.
j. | | Liabilities and accruals |
The Company’s liabilities and accruals recognized in the balance sheet represent current obligations which will probably require disbursement of economic resources. These provisions have been recorded based on management’s best estimate to cover the current obligation; however, actual results could differ from the provisions recognized.
k. | | Transactions in foreign currencies |
Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the prevailing exchange rates at the date of the transaction, with the related exchange gain or loss recorded within the statement of operations. Assets and liabilities denominated in said currencies are valued at the exchange rate in force at the close of the period, with the related exchange gain or loss recognized as part of the comprehensive financing cost.
l. | | Income Tax (IT), Asset Tax (AT), Flat Rate Business Tax (IETU), and Employees’ Statutory Profit Sharing (ESPS) |
IT, IETU and ESPS payable for the year are determined in conformity with the tax provisions in effect.
Deferred IT, IETU and, from January 1, 2008 deferred ESPS, are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax and ESPS assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and in the case of IT and IETU, for tax loss and credit carryforwards. Deferred tax and ESPS assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax and ESPS assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. See note 19.

m. | | Employees’ Statutory Profit Sharing (“ESPS”) |
As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company recorded a provision of $1,173 and $3,257 respectively for ESPS, which in accordance with NIF B-3 “Income Statement” was included under other income and expenses in the statement of operations.
Termination benefits for reasons other than restructuring and retirement to which employees are entitled are charged to operations for each year, based on actuarial computations using the projected unit credit method considering projected salaries. At December 31, 2008 and for purposes of recognizing benefits upon retirement, the remaining average service life of employees entitled to plan benefits approximates 29.5 years.
In conformity with NIF D-3 “Employee benefits” restructuring costs are presented in other expenses in the statement of operations.
o. | | Derivative financial instruments |
The Company applied the provisions of NIF C-10, “Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedge Operations”, which, sets forth the criteria for recording, valuation and disclosure of all derivative financial instruments and embedded derivative financial instruments. The Company records assets and liabilities arising from such operations by its fair value on its balance sheet without any differentiation of their purpose or origin. The fair value of these derivatives is calculated within the accepted financial industry methods and data.
Changes in the fair value of such assets not qualified solely as accounting coverage are registered in the comprehensive financing cost within the results of operations
Risk Coverage
To mitigate exposure to Peso/Dollar foreign exchange fluctuation risks, the Company sparingly uses derivative financial instruments such as Interest Rate and Cross Currency Swaps.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Thousands of Mexican pesos — note 5)
For accounting purposes, these derivative instruments, although intended for hedging purposes from an economic perspective, have been designated as trading instruments as they do not comply with all the requirements to apply hedge accounting. Changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments are recognized in the statement of operations for the year in which such changes occur, under comprehensive financing cost.
Embedded Derivatives
The Company reviews the contracts it enters into to identify the existence of embedded derivatives. Identified embedded derivatives are subject to assessment under NIF C-10 to determine compliance with the required conditions. If conditions are met, they are segregated from the host contract and valued at their fair value. Where the embedded derivative is classified as being for trading purposes, the gain or loss from changes in fair value is recognized in the comprehensive financing cost in the statement of operations.
Revenues from the sale of telephone equipment to clients are recognized at the time of delivery of said equipment and the risk and rewards are transferred to the customer. Revenues from services are recognized as rendered.
Generally installation expenses are charged to our residential customers and related revenues are recognized when installation is complete.
Revenues from public telephony services are recognized based on the cash collected and the estimated uncollected cash from services rendered at the date of the financial statements.
Revenues from interconnection services are recognized an accrual basis. The Company entered into local interconnection agreements with various telephone companies under the “bill and keep” compensatory clause. In accordance with these agreements, if the imbalance between local calls originated from the other telephony company and completed by Maxcom, and the calls originated from Maxcom and completed by the other telephony company over the course of one month do not exceed an established percentage, there will be no payment of an interconnection rate charge to the user for interconnection services. However, if the imbalance exceeds that percentage in a particular month, the Company or the other party is subject to a charge per minute. The aforementioned percentage of imbalance was 5% during 2008 and 2007, and it was 15% during 2006.

The Company also has interconnection agreements for long-distance and mobile services with other telephony companies. However, they do not include the clause of the “bill and keep” compensatory agreement.
Revenues from pay television services are recognized as rendered.
Revenues from mobile telephone services are recognized on monthly basis when the traffic with suppliers of mobile telephony has been reconciled and the charge to the client has been recorded.
Also, for the mobile telephony revenues the Company recognizes through the suppletory application of the Emerging Issues Task Force standard 0021 or EITF 0021 “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables” that evaluates the time and manner in which revenues for the different accounting units should be recognized. For the Company the separated accounting units are the sale of mobile telephony equipment and mobile services.
Revenue from bundled services is recognized in the month in which the services are provided. Bundle revenues are distributed among voice, data, pay TV or mobile services.
Revenues from lease of transmission capacity through the fiber optic ring are recorded in deferred revenue when billed in advance and then recognized ratably into revenue over the term of the contract.
The Company records an allowance in the amount of 90% of accounts receivable with balances due over 90 but less than 119 days old, and of 100% of accounts receivable due over 120 days old, except when there is a collection agreement with a client. In such cases, the allowance amount is 30% with balances due over 90 days if there is not a settlement negotiated with the client. Accounts handed over to the company’s legal collection services are reserved up to a 100%, or less depending on the success rate indicated by the attorney handling the account.

q. | | Business and credit concentration |
The Company provides its services to a vast array of customers, thus avoiding dependency on any single customer.
The Company’s main suppliers are Radiomóvil Dipsa, S.A. de C.V., Telmex and Pegaso PCS, S.A. de C.V.. The cost percentage related to them for the year of 2008 was 72%.
r. | | Stock-options compensation |
In July 2006, the Company decided to amend its different stock option plans to give better benefits to the holders of the options of those plans. Consequently, the Company changed the requisite service period as well as the strike price and vesting period on the different stock option plans. Granting conditions are included in the assumptions regarding the number of shares that are expected to become payable or the number of shares that employees receive. This estimate is revised annually and differences, if any, are charged or credited to the statement of operations, with an adjustment to shareholders’ equity.
Stock options are granted to members of the Board of Directors, Company officers and employees, as described in note 16.
The Company applies International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) No. 2 “Share-based Payments” (IFRS-2), for recognition, valuation and recording of the costs of these plans. IFRS-2 is applied in a suppletory basis in Mexico, as per NIF A-8 “Suppletory” from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2008. See note 5u.
IFRS-2 requires that valuation of the cost of stock options granted to employees be estimated by applying the fair value method, for which the company hired an independent third party to carry out this computation. The total amount of the expense estimated under this method is amortized throughout the period granted, excluding the impact of any situation not related to market performance.
For the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, the Company recognized stock option plan costs of $5,114, $37,124 and $15,982, respectively.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Thousands of Mexican pesos — note 5)
The net amount of the stock options exercised, excluding any expenses or cost due to transactions related to the payment, are credited to shareholders’ equity and to additional paid-in capital at face value. On the other hand, cash received from exercised stock options is recorded as equity in additional paid-in capital. During 2008 and 2007, options were exercised in the amount of $70,672 and $1,281 respectively, while in 2006, there were no options exercised.
The fair value of options is estimated by an independent expert on the date they are granted, applying the binomial valuation model, by the Black & Scholes method, considering the following weighted-averages for stock options granted during the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, based on the following:
| | | | | | | | |
| | 2007 | | | 2006 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Volatility of expected price per share | | | 30.00 | % | | | 30.00 | % |
Risk-free interest rate | | | 4.89 | % | | | 5.00 | % |
Expected life of options | | | 3.25 | | | | 3.50 | |
During 2008 there were no granted options subject to fair value measurements.
s. | | Information by segments |
Statement B-5 “Financial Information by Segments” of NIF requires that the Company review its internal organizational structure and internal reporting system for purpose of identifying segments. For the years reported on, the Company has operated only in the telecommunications business sector, identifying the following business segments: residential,
business, public telephony, wholesale and others.
The above segments represent a group within the telecommunications sector, thus most of the infrastructure is commonly used by business segments and equally specific telecommunications services, such as local service, long distance and “calling party pays” (CPP) that can be provided in one or more business segments.
Note 17 presents revenues by segments in the form management analyzes, manages and controls the business, Additionally, the information is displayed by geographic area, in compliance with the applicable NIF and a specific revelation that is required by the SCT in the concession title of the Company.

NIF B-7 “Business acquisitions” —NIF B-7 supersedes Bulletin B-7 and establishes, among other things, the general rules for the initial valuation and recognition at the acquisition date of net assets, stressing that all business acquisitions should be accounted for using the purchase method.
Management estimates that the initial effects of this new NIF will not be material.
NIF B-8 “Consolidated and combined financial statements” — NIF B-8 supersedes Bulletin B-8 “Consolidated and combined financial statements and valuation of permanent investments in shares” and establishes the general rules for the preparation and presentation of consolidated and combined financial statements and related disclosures.

| (i.) | | The obligation to consolidate special purpose entities (SPEs) when controlled. |
| (ii.) | | The possibility, under certain rules, of presenting unconsolidated financial statements when the parent is, in turn, a subsidiary with no minority interest or when the minority stockholders do not object to the fact that consolidated financial statements are not issued. |
| (iii.) | | Consideration is given to the existence of potential voting rights that might be exercised or converted in favor of the entity as parent and that may change its involvement in decision making at the time of assessing the existence of control. |
| (iv.) | | Additionally, regulations relating to the valuation of permanent investments have been transferred to a different bulletin. |

Management estimates that the initial effects of this new NIF will not be material.
NIF C-8 “Intangible assets” — NIF C-8 supersedes Bulletin C-8 and establishes general rules for the initial and subsequent recognition of intangible assets acquired individually, either through the acquisition of a business or arising internally during the normal course of the entity’s operations. Main changes include:
| (i) | | The definition of intangible assets is narrowed to establish that separability is not the only condition for the intangible asset to be identifiable; |
| (ii) | | Subsequent outlays for research and development projects in progress should be expensed as earned if they are part of the research phase or as an intangible asset if they meet the criteria to be recognized as such; |
| (iii) | | Greater detail is provided to account for the exchange of an asset, in accordance with the provisions of international standards and other NIF; |

NIF D-8 “Share based payments” — NIF D-8 Establishes the valuation and accounting methods for goods or services paid for by shares. NIF D-8 is applicable to all purchases whose payments are liquidated by shares whether they are exercised through cash, shares, stock options payments or any combination of the aforementioned, excluding transactions with shareholders.
It is established within the NIF that any goods or services must be appraised at its fair value upon receipt.
With the application of this standard, the supplement of the International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 2 was eliminated.
Management estimates that the application of this NIF will not be material, due to the previous suppletory application of International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 2 “Share based payments”.
NOTE 6 — ACCOUNTING CHANGES AND RECLASSIFICATIONS:
The CINIF has issued the following NIF, effective for years beginning after December 31, 2008. Early application is not permitted.
(a) NIF B-10 “Effects of inflation” —NIF B-10 supersedes Bulletin B-10 “Recognition of the effects of inflation on the financial information” and its five amendment documents, as well as the related bulletins and Interpretation of Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) 2. The principal considerations established by this NIF are:
(i) | | Recognition of the effects of inflation — An entity operates in a) an inflationary economic environment when cumulative inflation over the immediately preceding 3-year period is equal to or greater than 26%; and b) non-inflationary economic environment, when inflation over the aforementioned period is less than 26%. |
For case a), the comprehensive recognition of the effects of inflation is required, (similarly to Bulletin B-10 being superseded). For case b), the effects of inflation are not recognized; however, at the effective date of this NIF and when an entity ceases to operate in an inflationary economic environment, the restatement effects determined through the last period in which the entity operated in an inflationary economic environment (in this case 2008), must be kept and shall be reclassified on the same date and using the same procedure as that of the corresponding assets, liabilities and stockholders’ equity. Should the entity once more operate in an inflationary economic environment, the cumulative effects of inflation not recognized in the periods where the environment was deemed as non-inflationary should be recognized retrospectively.

(Thousands of Mexican pesos — note 5)
(ii) | | Price index — the use of the National Consumer Price Index (NCPI) or the change in the value of the Investment Unit (UDI) may be used for determining the inflation for a given period. |
(iii) | | Valuation of inventories and of foreign machinery and equipment — The possibility of using replacement costs for inventories and specific indexation for foreign machinery and equipment is no longer allowed. |
(iv) | | Equity adjustment for non-monetary Assets — On the effective date of this NIF, the unrealized portion of the equity adjustment for non monetary assets, which is maintained in stockholders’ equity, should be identified to be reclassified to earnings of the year when the originating item is realized. The realized portion or when is not practical to identify the unrealized portion, the realized and unrealized portions should be reclassified to retained earnings. |
(v) | | Monetary Position Gains or Losses (included in Deficit/Excess in Equity Restatement) will be reclassified to retained earnings on the effective date of this NIF. |
The 2007 and 2006 consolidated financial statements are presented expressed in constant pesos at December 31, 2007, the date on which the comprehensive method for recognizing the effects of inflation was last used.
(b) NIF D-3 “Employee benefits” — NIFD-3 supersedes Bulletin D-3 “Labor Obligations”, the sections applicable to Employee Statutory Profit Sharing (ESPS) of Bulletin D-4 and IFRS 4. The principal considerations established by this NIF are:
(i) | | Elimination of the recognition of an additional liability and the related intangible asset or any comprehensive item as a separate element of stockholders’ equity. |
(ii) | | Employee benefits are classified in four principal categories; direct short-term and long term, termination and post-employment benefits. NIF D-3 establishes a maximum five-year period for amortizing unrecognized/unamortized items while actuarial gains or losses may be recognized as earned or incurred. Unlike termination benefits, post-employment benefits actuarial gains or losses may be immediately recognized in results of operations or amortized over the expected service life of the employees. |

(iii) | | The use of nominal rates and the incorporation of the term salary increases due to promotions. |
(iv) | | ESPS, including deferred ESPS, shall be presented in the statement of income as ordinary operations, preferably within “other income and expenses”. Furthermore, NIF D-3 establishes that the asset and liability method should be used for determining deferred ESPS; any effects arising from the change in method shall be recognized in retained earnings, without restatement of prior years’ financial statements. |
As a result of the adoption of NIF B-3 “Income Statement”, in 2008 the intangible asset of $17,650 reflected in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2007 was eliminated. As of December 31, 2008 the effect of the recognition of items pending to be amortized on a five year period amounts to $2,776.
(c) NIF D-4“Taxes on income” — NIF D-4 supersedes Bulletin D-4 “Accounting for income and asset taxes and employee statutory profit sharing” and Bulletins 53 and 54. The principal considerations established by this NIF are:
(i) | | the balance of the cumulative IT effects resulting from the initial adoption of Bulletin D-4 in 2000 is reclassified to retained earnings, unless identified with any other comprehensive item pending reclassification. On January 1, 2008 there were no IT effects reclassified to retained earnings. |
(ii) | | the accounting treatment of ESPS (current and deferred) is transferred to NIF D-3, as mentioned in paragraph (b) above. |
(d) NIF B-2“Statement of cash flows” — NIF B-2 supersedes Bulletin B-12“Statement of changes in financialposition”and paragraph 33 of Bulletin B-16. The principal considerations established by this NIF are shown on the following page.
(i) | | Instead of the statement of changes in financial position, the financial statements shall include the statements of cash flows for all the periods presented comparatively with those of the current year, except for financial statements of periods prior to 2008; |
(ii) | | Cash inflows and cash outflows are reported in nominal currency units, thus not including the effects of inflation; |
(iii) | | Two alternative preparation methods (direct and indirect) are established, without stating preference for either method. Furthermore, cash flows from operating activities are to be reported first, followed by cash flows from investing activities and lastly by cash flows from financing activities; |
(iv) | | Captions of principal items are to be reported gross, with certain exceptions and require disclosure of the composition of items considered cash equivalents. |

Accordingly, the Company presents the statement of changes in financial position for 2007 and 2006 as issued and the statement of cash flows for 2008 under the indirect method.
(e) NIF B-15”Translation of foreign currencies” — NIF B-15 supersedes Bulletin B-15 “Foreign currency transactions and translation of financial statements of foreign operations”. The principal considerations established by this NIF are:
(i) | | Replacing integrated foreign operation and foreign entity concepts by those of recording, functional and reporting currencies, requiring that translation be made based on the economic environment in which the entity operates, regardless of its dependency on the holding company. |
|
| | Includes translation procedures for instances where the recording and reporting currencies differ from the functional currency and provides for the option not to conduct such translation in companies not subject to consolidation or valuation based on the equity method. |
(ii) | | The accounting changes produced by the initial application of this standard shall be recognized based on the prospective method; that is, in a non-inflationary economic environment, without modifying the translation already recognized in the consolidated financial statements of prior periods, at the time of issue. |
Reclassifications-
In order to comply with the NIF the employee’s statutory profit sharing amounting to $3,257 was reclassified in the 2007 statement of operations from selling, general and administrative expenses to other expenses.

Explicit Derivatives
As of December 31, 2008 the Company had entered into two swap transactions covering interest and exchange rates with two different parties, but with the same characteristics. In both cases the Company pays every six months interest over a notional amount in pesos and receives interest over a notional amount in dollars; at maturity the Company must pay the notional amount in pesos and will receive the notional amount in dollars. These instruments were not qualified as hedges, so any change in their fair value is recorded in the comprehensive financing cost in the statement of operations for the period in which the change occurred. As of December 31, 2008, the fair value of the swaps totaled $ 105,270, which is divided as follows:

On July 17, 2006, the Company’s shareholders decided to simplify the Company’s shareholding structure, as a result of which, all preferred shares were converted to common shares, eliminating the preferred liquidation rights of certain shares, which represented, at the time of the conversion, approximately 95% of the capital stock. To eliminate the preferred rights that would have been generated in the event of Maxcom’s liquidation or an analogous liquidation, the shareholders approved payment of dividends per share to preferred shareholders, which were equal to the liquidation price estimated per preferred share at the date of payment. Payment was made in shares. Shareholders holding preferred shares received an additional amount of 126,297,257 common shares.
In accordance with the provisions of NIF C-11 “Shareholders’ Equity”, the increase in the number of shares in circulation resulting from this payment of dividends per share had no effect on the accounting, as the value of shareholders’ equity remained unchanged.
All series of preferred shares were converted to common shares. In this regard, as per the agreements reached, the conversion was as follows:
• | | 6,088,896 Series “A-1” shares to Series “A” shares, at a one to one ratio; |
|
• | | 10,181,950 Series “B-1” shares to Series “B” shares, at a one to one ratio; |
|
• | | 220,714,874 Series “N-1” shares to Series “N” shares, at a one to one ratio, and |
|
• | | 26,867,820 Series “N-2” shares to Series “N” shares, at a one to one ratio. |
Series “A” and “B” preferred shares had full voting rights, and Series “N” shares were neutral shares with limited voting rights and were not considered in the determination of the foreign investment percentage, in accordance with the Foreign Investment Law and can be subscribed and acquired by either Mexican or foreign investors.
In accordance with the General Corporations Law, and with the Company’s bylaws, it is not possible to issue new shares or agree any modification in the number of shares due to a capital increase, reduction, amortization or spin off, unless all shares previously issued have been entirely paid. Therefore, treasury shares were totally cancelled and re-issued each time stockholders reached an agreement in that sense.
As a result of the acquisition of Grupo Telereunion companies, described in note 3b., at the General Shareholders’ meeting held on July 17, 2006, Grupo VAC (the former owners of the Grupo Telereunion companies) subscribed a 31.2 million dollar increase in Maxcom’s capital stock equivalent to $364,276 or 16.34% of the total Company’s shares. From this capital stock subscription, Maxcom received 22.7 million dollars in cash and the outstanding shares of Telereunion, S. A. de C. V., Telscape de México, S. A. de C. V. and Sierra USA Communications, Inc. valued at a fair value of 8.5 million dollars.

In July 2006, the Company increased its capital stock by 16.34% of the Company’s outstanding shares, as described in note 15. As a result of this transaction, the Company’s shareholders decided to simplify the Company’s shareholding structure, changing all preferred shares to common shares, after canceling preferential rights in the event of liquidation.
This change produced that the fair value of the Company’s shares increased from 0.00 to 0.31 dollars on common stock and from 0.28 to 0.31 dollars on its preferred stock.
Together with this change in its capital structure the Company decided to amend its different stock option plans to give better benefits to the holders of the options in such plans. As a result in July 2006, the Company changed the requisite service period as well as the strike price and vesting period in the different stock option plans as explained as follows:

The total remaining compensation cost at December 31, 2008 amounted to $1,114 will be recognized over the modified award’s three-year requisite service period. Accordingly, the Company’s compensation cost will be recognized ratably over the remaining three years. The cost related to these plans recognized for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 amounted to $5,114 and $37,124, respectively. The compensation cost for “penny warrants” for directors and options for executives are recognized in shorter periods, because it relates to performance bonuses and their fair value fluctuates between 0.15 and 0.38 dollars each.
As of December 31, 2007, the Company had issued options to purchase 7,569,007 shares pursuant to severance arrangements with certain of our key officers that, upon a change of control or an initial public offering of Maxcom, became fully exercisable without restriction. As of October 18, 2007 these options were fully exercisable and the compensation cost recognized amounted to $25,300. The majority of these options were exercised during 2008.

On October 17, 2008, by means of resolutions adopted by the General Extraordinary and Ordinary Shareholders Meetings, the shareholders ratified the Executive Incentive Program and the compensation awarded to counselors and members of the Company’s different committees. In both cases a portion of the payments is awarded through shares, as described below:
| A) | | Employee Incentive Program. |
| a. | | The yearly incentive goal, which may be given to the Company’s officers and employees who are eligible under the scope of the Executive Incentive Program, is to reward management for value generation to the Company in a given period of time. |
|
| b. | | The minimum requirement for the incentives to be awarded is a value generation of 15% year versus year. The following formula is how value generation is calculated: |
|
| | | Value Generation for the year = EBITDA * 8 (eight) — net indebtedness + shareholders’ dividends — shareholders’ increase to the capital stock. |
|
| c. | | The amount of the yearly incentive is allocated individually and is subject to the yearly performance evaluation. |
|
| d. | | The yearly incentive is divided into three parts: |
| i. | | One part will be awarded through cash. |
|
| ii. | | One part will be awarded through stock options in order to receive ADRs, CPOs or any other instrument whose underlying values represent Maxcom’s capital stock. |
|
| iii. | | One part will be awarded through stock options in order to receive ADR’s, CPO’s or any other instrument whose underlying values represent Maxcom’s capital stock. |
Under this plan there have not been any options granted, due to the fact that the conditions required at the Shareholder’s Meeting to grant the incentives were not met.
| B) | | Compensation for Directors and Committee members. |
| a. | | Directors and Committee members will receive each year options to purchase up to $120 in the form of CPOs, with the exception of the Chairman of the Board who will receive each year options to purchase up to $240 in the form of CPOs. |

NOTE 19 — INCOME TAX (IT), ASSET TAX (AT), FLAT RATE BUSINESS TAX (IETU) AND EMPLOYEES’ STAUTORY PROFIT SHARING (ESPS):
On October 1, 2007, new laws were published, a number of tax laws were revised, and additionally a presidential decree was issued on November 5, 2007, all of which became effective on January 1, 2008. The most important changes are: (i) derogation of the Asset Tax Law and (ii) the introduction of a new tax (Flat Rate Business Tax or IETU) which is based on cash flows and limits certain deductions; additionally, certain tax credits are granted mainly with respect to inventories, salaries taxed for IT purposes and social security contributions, tax losses arising from accelerated deductions, recoverable asset tax, and deductions related to investments in fixed assets, deferred charges and expenses.
F-60
MAXCOM TELECOMUNICACIONES, S. A. B. DE C. V. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Thousands of Mexican pesos — note 5)
Accordingly, beginning in 2008, companies will be required to pay the greater of IETU or IT. If IETU is payable, the payment is considered final and not subject to recovery in subsequent years. The IETU rate is 16.5% for 2008, 17% for 2009 and 17.5% for 2010 and thereafter.
Under the tax law in force through December 31, 2007, companies must pay the greater of IT or AT. Both taxes recognize the effects of inflation.
As of December 31, 2008, the Company and its Mexican subsidiaries are subject to IT and IETU individually, which means that they are not consolidated for tax payment calculations.
Because management estimates that the tax payable in future years will be Income Tax, deferred tax effects as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 have been recorded reflecting the IT basis.
Mexican Income Tax Law states that the statutory income tax rate is 28% since 2007 and thereafter.
Substantially all (loss) income before income tax (benefit) expense and related income tax (benefit) expense are from Mexican sources.
The following table shows the reconciliation between the effective tax rate and the statutory income tax rate:

(1) | | As of December 31, 2005, the Company believed it had possibilities of recovering asset tax paid in prior years, based on the results of legal proceedings initiated and the fact that the prior Asset Tax Law allowed for deduction of liabilities in computing net assets. However, during the last quarter of 2006, the conditions of the legal process changed radically and together with the changes to the Asset Tax Law, effective as from January 1, 2007, which now precludes the inclusion of liabilities in determining the asset tax base, the Company concluded that there were not enough grounds to obtain a favorable resolution, and decided to record a valuation allowance in the total amount of said tax. Asset tax is incurred at the rate of 1.25% over the net amount of certain assets only when this tax exceeds income tax payable. |

The net change in the total valuation allowance for the year ended December 31, 2008, was a increase of $55,875. The valuation allowance as of December 31, 2008 was primarily related to net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards that, in the judgment of management, are not more likely than not to be realized. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets depends on the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences are deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected taxable income, and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment. In order to fully realize the deferred tax asset, the Company will need to generate future taxable income before the expiration of the deferred tax assets governed by the tax code. Based on the projections for future taxable income over the periods for which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences, net of the existing valuation allowances at December 31, 2008. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable; however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced.

(Thousands of Mexican pesos — note 5)
In order for the concession to remain in effect, the Company is required to comply with the capacity installation and geographic expansion commitment discussed above, among other conditions.
As of the date of issuance of the financial statements, said commitment was fully covered, with no future commitments remaining.
e. Commitment related to frequency rights:
As of December 31, 2008, the Company complied with its obligation to submit to the SCT the renewal of the surety bonds for the fiscal year 2008, as per the commitments and obligations set forth in the concessions.
f. Commitment pertaining to the sale of capacity:
In October 2003, the Company entered into an agreement for the sale of optical fiber capacity with another carrier in the amount of 2 million dollars, which was recognized at the time of the sale as an advanced collection to render this service; the term of this agreement is 13 years. As of December 31, 2008, deferred revenue amounted to 1.4 million dollars. The amortized revenue for 2008 and 2007 was $1,728 and $1,722, respectively.
In November 2007, the Company entered into an agreement for the sale of optical fiber capacity with GTM in the amount of 1.3 million dollars, which was recognized as an advanced collection to render this service; the term of this agreement is 5 years. As of December 31, 2008, deferred revenue amounted to 1.3 million dollars. The service and amortization of the revenue began in October 2008. The amortized revenue for 2008 was $680.
g. Lucent Technologies:
Telereunion is involved in a claim initiated by Lucent Technologies, Inc. for the collection of approximately 6.5 million dollars in connection with the installation of part of Telereunion’s fiber optic network. We believe that the likelihood of success of the Lucent claim is remote. Although Lucent has not initiated a formal legal proceeding against Telereunion and has only sent several letters in the attempt to collect the amount they allege is due, Telereunion initiated two legal proceedings in Mexican courts seeking (i) a declaration that the applicable statute of limitations (prescription) has expired and (ii) a declaration nullifying the document upon which Lucent bases its claim. In connection with the share purchase agreement related to the Grupo Telereunion acquisition, the Grupo VAC Investors agreed to indemnify us for any out of pocket costs we incur in connection with the resolution of the Lucent claim.

h. Comisión Federal de Electricidad:
Telereunion was a party to a lawsuit initiated by the Mexican Federal Power Commission for $38.7 million in rents due for the 30-year lease of infrastructure, entered into on June 23, 1999, that should have been paid in advance.
On January 9, 2007, Telereunion executed an agreement with the Mexican Federal Power Commission to pay the amount due over a two-year period in semi-annual payments beginning May 29, 2007 and ending November 29, 2008. As part of this agreement, Telereunion obtained a stand-by letter of credit issued to the Mexican Federal Power Commission to secure payment of the amount due. The Grupo VAC Investors have covered all of the expenses and costs associated with the issuance of this letter of credit. In 2006, the Grupo VAC Investors lent us $39.7 million which we have agreed to repay them over a 30-year period in monthly installments of no more than $110 per month, bearing an interest rate of “Tasa de interés interbancaria de equilibrio” (TIIE) plus 300 basis points. The resulting was paid to Comisión Federal de Electricidad by Telereunion on November 27, 2008.
The remaining amount to be paid regarding this matter is recorded under “Other accounts payable”. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007 it amounted to $33,924 and $35,094, respectively.
i. | | Claim brought by the Secretaría de Hacienda y Crédito Público as a result of a tax audit of Telereunion for the fiscal year 2004: |
In January 2006 the tax authorities initiated audits of Telereunion on grounds of alleged omissions to pay the taxes corresponding to fiscal year 2004. These audits were concluded on September 6, 2007. On September 7, 2007 the tax authorities determined a tax obligation of Telereunion in the approximate amount of $59.4 million, due to the existence of certain differences and omissions in connection with tax returns of Telereunion.
As part of these audits, the authorities established that Telereunion was liable for a failure to pay Employees’ profit sharing in the approximate amount of $8.2 million to certain employees, in conformity with applicable laws. Pursuant to the obligations assumed by Grupo VAC under the Indemnity Agreement, since the Investors thereof agreed to indemnify Maxcom for any expenses incurred by it in that regard, no direct impact on the legal or financial condition or the operating results of Maxcom should occur. The Company has registered no liability, since in its opinion and its legal counsel is opinion, any charge against Telereunion is unlikely to occur.

NOTE 21 — SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MEXICAN AND THE UNITED STATES GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES:
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Mexican Financial Reporting Standards (“MFRS” or “NIF”, for its initials in Spanish as described below), which differ in certain significant respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Through December 31, 2007 the consolidated financial statements include the effects of inflation as provided for under Bulletin B-10 and its amendments (see note 5). The reconciliation for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007 does not include the reversal of other adjustments to the financial statements for the effects of inflation required under MFRS because the application of inflation accounting represented a comprehensive measure of the effects of price level changes in the inflationary Mexican economy and, as such, is considered a more meaningful presentation than nominal cost-based financial reporting for both Mexican and U.S. accounting purposes. As of January 1, 2008, the recognition of inflation is discontinued and the financial information is presented in adjusted nominal Mexican Pesos
Recently adopted accounting standards
In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 permits companies, at their election, to measure specified financial instruments and warranty and insurance contracts at fair value on a contract-by-contract basis, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings each reporting period. The election, called the “fair value option,” will enable some companies to reduce the volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently, and it is easier than using the complex hedge-accounting requirements in SFAS No. 133, to achieve similar results. Subsequent changes in fair value for designated items will be required to be reported in earnings in the current period. SFAS No. 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and therefore became effective for the Company as of January 1, 2008. The Company has not elected to measure any eligible items at fair value. Accordingly, the adoption of SFAS No. 159 has not impacted the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

(Thousands of Mexican pesos — note 5)
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements; rather, it applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS No. 157 are to be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which it is initially applied; with certain limited exceptions with any transition adjustment recognized as a cumulative-effect adjustment generally to the opening balance of retained earnings.
SFAS No. 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under SFAS No. 157 are described below:
Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
Level 2 — Inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, but do not qualify as Level 1 inputs. (i.e., quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities)
Level 3 — Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).
Fair value
The carrying value of the Company’s short-term instruments and derivates instruments and the related fair value level under SFAS 157 is summarized as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | Quoted prices | | | Significant | | | | |
| | | | | | in active | | | other | | | Significant | |

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Thousands of Mexican pesos — note 5)
Short-term investments consists of Mexican governmental bonds which are measured using quoted prices in active markets and therefore classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Short-term investments classified as Level 2 consist of money market mutual funds and commercial banking paper, whose fair values are obtained using observable inputs for their valuation.
Derivatives are valued using internal models that use as their basis readily observable market inputs, such as time value, forward interest rates, and current and forward market prices for foreign exchange rates. The Company generally classifies these instruments within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. Such derivatives include cross currency swaps and embedded derivatives which consist of forward contracts.
The provisions of SFAS No. 157 were adopted by the Company on January 1, 2008 and did not have any material effect on its overall financial position or results of operations.

In February 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) approved FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. FAS 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157” (FSP No. FAS 157-2), that permits companies to partially defer the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for one year for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. FSP No. FAS 157-2 does not permit companies to defer recognition and disclosure requirements for financial assets and financial liabilities or for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are remeasured at least annually. In accordance with the provisions of FSP No. FAS 157-2, the Company has decided to defer the adoption of SFAS No. 157 for one year for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that this statement will have on its financial position and results of operations.
In October 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FAS 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset is Not Active,” which was effective immediately. FSP FAS 157-3 clarifies the application of Statement 157 in cases where the market for a financial instrument is not active and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining fair value in these circumstances.

I. Explanation of reconciling items
a. Preoperating expenses -
Under the Statement C-8 “Intangibles” in MFRS, all expenses incurred while a company or a project is in the preoperating or development stages were capitalized. The Company’s operations commenced in May 1999 and capitalized expenses are being amortized on a straight-line basis for a period not exceeding 10 years. The Company has not incurred any preoperating or development expenses since 2003.
Under US GAAP, such pre-operating expenses are expensed as incurred.

b. Capitalization of interest -
In accordance with MFRS, the Company capitalizes comprehensive cost of financing (which is comprised of interest expense, foreign exchange gains or losses and monetary gain) incurred during the period of construction and installation of an asset. Further, cost capitalized is limited to the specific financing obtained for the construction of the related asset. The Company is amortizing capitalized interests on a straight-line basis over 10 years.
As of 2008, the Mexican economy is no longer deemed an inflationary environment, for purposes of Mexican GAAP; therefore capitalization of the comprehensive financing result in such year no longer consider any gains or losses from monetary position as result of the adoption of the new MFRS B-10 “Inflation Effects” mentioned elsewhere in this financial statement. As a result, the Company capitalized $112,738 of foreign exchange differences that must be reversed for purposes of U.S. GAAP.
Under U.S. GAAP, capitalization of interest is required for certain qualifying assets that require a period of time to get them ready for their intended use. The amount of interest to be capitalized is that portion of the interest cost incurred during the asset acquisition period that theoretically could have been avoided if expenditures for the assets had not been made, and is not limited to indebtedness directly attributable to the assets. US GAAP does not allow the capitalization of foreign exchange rate differences.
c. Installation revenues and related costs -
Under MFRS, installation revenues and related costs are recognized immediately, when installations are charged to customers.
Under U.S. GAAP, installation revenues and related costs are deferred and amortized over the expected customer relationship period when installation is charged to the customers,to the extent that costs do not exceed revenues, otherwise excess costs are expensed as incurred. The Company estimated its customer relationship period to be 4 years.
d. Installation costs not charged to customers-
Under MFRS, installation costs not charged to customers are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the concession. The concession term expires in October 2017.
Under U.S. GAAP, installation costs not charged to customers are expensed as incurred.

e. Debt restructuring -
Under MFRS, the difference between the old carrying value and new carrying value of the debt is taken directly to equity at the time of the restructuring and recorded as capital stock and additional paid-in capital. Debt issuance costs and the debt discount recorded due to the issuance of warrants are amortized over the original term of the corresponding debt with which it was originally issued with no adjustment at the time of restructuring.
Under U.S. GAAP, the April 2002, July 2002 and October 2004 debt restructurings qualify as troubled debt restructurings pursuant to the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 15, Accounting by Debtors and Creditors for Troubled Debt Restructurings (“FAS 15”).
The 2002 debt restructurings are accounted for as a combination of types, as stock, warrants, and Old Senior Notes were exchanged for the 133/4% Notes. A gain was recognized in 2002, as the adjusted carrying value of the 133/4% Notes (including unamortized debt issuance costs and warrant discount) was greater than total future cash payments of the Old Senior Notes at the dates of the 2002 restructurings. To calculate the gain on the 2002 restructurings, the carrying value of the 133/4% Notes was reduced by the fair value of the equity interest granted as well as by all legal and other costs in relation to the restructurings, to determine the adjusted carrying value, which was compared to the gross future cash payments of the Old Senior Notes to determine the gain.
For the purposes of applying the provisions of FAS 15 to the October 2004 restructuring, the exchanges of the primary and other holders were recorded as follows:
(a) | | The exchange with the primary holder is accounted for as a combination of types as the primary holder received both New Senior Notes and stock in exchange for the Old Senior Notes exchanged. A gain was recorded, as the adjusted carrying value of the Old Senior Notes exchanged was greater than the total future cash payments of the New Senior Notes at the time of the exchange. To calculate the gain on the restructuring, the carrying value of the Old Senior Notes was reduced by the fair value of the equity interest granted as well as all legal and other costs in relation to the restructuring, to determine the adjusted carrying value, which was compared to the gross future cash payments under the terms of the New Senior Notes to determine the gain. |
|
(b) | | The other holders exchanged Old Senior Notes for New Senior Notes, which is accounted for as a modification of terms under FAS 15 due to the extension of the maturity date and the increase in total interest payments. Since the carrying amount of the Old Senior Notes on October 2004 did not exceed the total future cash payments of the New Senior Notes, no gain on the exchange with the other holders was recognized. |
Interest expense on the New Senior Notes provided to other holders is determined using an effective interest rate that equates the present value of the future cash payments specified by the New Senior Notes, with the carrying amount of the Old Senior Notes.

In December 2006 and April 2007, the Company redeemed its outstanding debt related to its Old Senior Notes and its New Senior Notes (see Note 11). Under MFRS, in accordance to the Statement C-9 “Liabilities, Accruals, Contingent Assets and Liabilities and Commitments” of NIF, the Company’s management determined that the issuance of bonds in December 2006, represented new debt in accordance with the provisions specified in such Statement, thus any remaining balances for debt issuance costs in prior years, were taken to income. Under U.S. GAAP, the remaining outstanding balance of the debt restructuring was recognized in the income results.
f. Capitalized internal compensation cost -
MFRS allows that certain compensation charges directly attributable to capital expenditures to be capitalized. During 2002, the Company capitalized some compensation expenses in an amount of $2,856, which are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 20 years. The Company has not incurred these charges since 2003.
Under U.S. GAAP, these charges were expensed when incurred.
g. Impairment -
As of December 31, 2008, under MFRS, the carrying amount of long-lived assets was higher than the expected discounted income at the Company’s theoretical rate for weighted average cost of capital under current market conditions. The impairment charge (a non-cash item) calculated for 2008 amounted to $532,315. Said charge was proportionately distributed throughout the different asset classes.
Under US GAAP, an impairment test on long-lived assets requires a two-step process to determine the amount of any impairment loss to be recognized. The first step of this test requires the determination of whether the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is recoverable through the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. The second step requires the determination of the amount of impairment loss to be recognized by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to its fair value. MFRS does not require a two-step impairment evaluation process for long-lived assets but rather, a direct comparison of fair value to carrying value. Under U.S. GAAP, no impairment was recognized as the carrying amount was considered to be recoverable, therefore, the impairment recognized for MFRS purposes was reversed for US GAAP purposes.

h. Severance Indemnity liability -
MFRS requires the recognition of a severance indemnity liability calculated based on actuarial computations. Similar recognition criteria under U.S. GAAP are established in SFAS No. 112, “Employers’ Accounting for Postemployment Benefits”.
Due to the revision of NIF D-3 “Employee benefits”, effective January 1, 2008, companies must now amortize transition obligations/benefits, unrecognized prior service costs/benefits and net gains and losses over a maximum period of 5 years.
In 2008 the Company adopted the NIF D-3 “Employee benefits” which provides for the elimination of any related intangible asset previously recorded

Effective December 31, 2008, the Company adopted the recognition and disclosure provisions of FASB Statement No. 158, Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans (SFAS 158). SFAS 158 requires companies to recognize the funded status of defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans as a net asset or liability and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through other comprehensive income to the extent those changes are not included in the net periodic cost. The funded status reported on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2008 under SFAS 158 was measured as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligation on a plan-by-plan basis. The Company believes that the assumptions utilized in recording its obligations under its plans are reasonable based on its experience and market conditions.
The accumulated effect of this standard on the Company as of December 31, 2008 is shown as follows:

i. Initial application of SAB 108 -
In September 2006, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements”. SAB 108 was issued in order to eliminate the diversity of practice surrounding how public companies quantify financial statement misstatements.
F-78
MAXCOM TELECOMUNICACIONES, S. A. B. DE C. V. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Thousands of Mexican pesos — note 5)
Traditionally, there have been two widely-recognized methods for quantifying the effects of financial statement misstatements: the “roll-over” method and the “iron curtain” method. The roll-over method focuses primarily on the impact of a misstatement on the income statement-including the reversing effect of prior year misstatements- but its use can lead to the accumulation of misstatements in the balance sheet. The iron-curtain method, on the other hand, focuses primarily on the effect of correcting the period-end balance sheet with less emphasis on the reversing effects of prior year errors on the income statement. Prior to our application of the guidance in SAB 108, we used the roll-over method for quantifying financial statement misstatements.
In SAB 108, the SEC staff established an approach that requires quantification of financial statement misstatements based on the effects of the misstatements on each of the Company’s financial statements and the related financial statement disclosures. This model is commonly referred to as a “dual approach” because it requires quantification of errors under both the iron curtain and the roll-over methods.
SAB 108 permits existing public companies to initially apply its provisions either by (i) restating prior financial statements as if the “dual approach” had always been applied or (ii) recording the cumulative effect of initially applying the “dual approach” as adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities as of January 1, 2006 with an offsetting adjustment recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings. We elected to record the effects of applying SAB 108 using the cumulative effect transition method.
In connection with the preparation of its Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2006, Maxcom detected prior year misstatements, not identified during prior years. In order to evaluate whether such errors resulted in a material misstatement to the previously issued financial statements, management quantified the aggregate misstatement to the prior years financial statements using its pre-SAB 108 quantification method (the roll-over method). This analysis included all misstatements relating to the prior years financial statements including the misstatements that were “corrected” through the cumulative effect adjustment (recorded as of January 1, 2006) relating to the initial application of SAB 108.
Based on their consideration of the total misstatement of the prior years financial statements (using the roll-over method), management determined that the prior years financial statements were not materially misstated.

(1) | | We previously quantified these errors under the roll-over method and concluded that they were immaterial, individually and in the aggregate. |
|
(2) | | We were not recognizing this difference for severance indemnity as required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (see reconciling item h.). As a result of this error, our severance indemnity expense was understated by $16.0 million in 2003 and by $0.6 million in 2005, no expense recognition is applicable for 2004. We recorded a $16.6 million increase in our liability for severance indemnity as of January 1, 2006 with a corresponding reduction in retained earnings to correct these misstatements. |
|
(3) | | We incorrectly amortized capitalized interest expenses in 2005 and prior years. As a result of this error, our expenses were understated in 2003 by $4.6 million, in 2004 by $1.3 and overstated by $0.6 million in 2005. We recorded a $5.3 million decrease in our capitalized interest as of January 1, 2006 with a corresponding reduction in retained earnings to correct these misstatements. |
|
(4) | | We were not adjusting our expenses for increasing-debt rate as required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles to the interest method. As a result of this error, our interest expense was understated by $3.7 million in 2004 and by $8.3 million in 2005. We recorded a $12.0 million increase in our liability for interest payable as of January 1, 2006 with a corresponding reduction in retained earnings to correct these misstatements (see item j. below for reversal in 2006). |
|
(5) | | We were not recognizing compensation cost expense as required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. As a result of this error, our compensation expense was understated by $0.6 million in 2004 and by $2.9 million in 2005. We recorded a $3.5 million increase in our additional-paid in capital for stock-option plans as of January 1, 2006 with a corresponding reduction in retained earnings to correct these misstatements. |

(6) | | We were not recognizing the effect in income generated by embedded derivatives as required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. As a result of this error in both GAAPs in 2005, our income was understated by $7.3 million. We recorded a $7.3 million increase in our assets as of January 1, 2006 with a corresponding increase in retained earnings to correct these misstatements. This balance does not represent a difference between GAAPs, however for MFRS purposes this effect was immaterial for being adjusted (see item j. below for reversal in 2006). |
|
(7) | | We were incorrectly presenting the accumulated amortization related to debt restructuring and installation costs not charged to customers. As a result of both reclassification errors, our income was understated by $26.1 million in 2004 and by $1.6 million in 2005 (amounts presented net). We recorded a $27.7 million increase in our assets as of January 1, 2006 with a corresponding increment in retained earnings to correct these misstatements. |
|
(8) | | We were incorrectly recognizing the effect in income generated by the amortization installation revenues and costs. As a result of this error, our income was understated by $11.6 million in 2005. We recorded a $11.6 million increase in our assets as of January 1, 2006 with a corresponding increment in retained earnings to correct these misstatements. |
|
(9) | | We incorrectly recorded minor entries representing preoperating expenses, leasehold improvements and revenue recognition. As a result of these errors, our expense was overstated by $11.3 million in 2003 and understated by $9.5 million in 2004 and $4.0 million in 2005. We recorded a $2.2 million increase in the Company’s liabilities for these concepts as of January 1, 2006 with a corresponding reduction in retained earnings to correct these misstatements. |
|
(10) | | No deferred taxes were calculated in the application of the SAB 108 as those balances would represent a deferred tax asset for the net balance to be adjusted on January 1, 2006, that is not deemed recoverable and should be fully reserved for accounting purposes. |

k. Recognition of Deferred taxes -
This amount represents the effect in deferred income taxes over the adjustments between MFRS and U.S. GAAP when applicable.
II. Disclosures
a. Restrictive Covenants -
The terms of the old notes and the new notes, impose significant operating and financial restrictions to the Company. These restrictions affect, and in many respects significantly limit or prohibit, its ability to, among other things:
• | | borrow money; |
|
• | | pay dividends on our capital stock; |
|
• | | purchase stock or repay subordinated indebtedness; |
|
• | | sell assets; and |
|
• | | consolidate or merge into other companies. |
If we do not comply with these restrictions, we could be in default even if we are able to service our debt. If there were a default, holders of the notes could demand immediate payment of the aggregate principal amount and accrued interest on the notes outstanding. This could lead to our bankruptcy or reorganization for the benefit of our creditors or to our inability to pay our obligations.
b. Proforma earnings per share -
Pursuant to guidelines established in FAS 154 “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3”, the Company notes that it changed the estimate of useful lives of telephone network systems and equipment during 2007. As explained in Note 5d the Company recalculated the amount of depreciation expense related to these assets for the year 2007, which amounted to $33,231. If depreciation would have been estimated based on the previous remaining useful lives, the depreciation expense for the year 2007 would have been of $16,011, the effects of these changes during 2007 was a reduction of $0.03 per share, under both MFRS and U.S. GAAP.

c. Acquisition of Sierra Comunicaciones
In 2007, under MFRS the acquisition of Sierra Comunicaciones was recognized in the books of the Company following the applicable guidance for business combinations, however for US GAAP purposes based on the characteristics of the transaction, the Company applied EITF (Emerging Issues Task Force) 98-3 “Determining Whether a Nonmonetary Transaction Involves Receipt of Productive Assets or of a Business” and considered the transaction to be an acquisition of a group of assets as the entity acquired was not regarded as a self-sustaining integrated set of activities and assets. This acquisition did not represent a GAAP difference as no goodwill was recognized under MFRS and excess of the purchase price over book value was allocated to the assets received.
d. Fair value
The carrying amount of cash, trade accounts receivable, other accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, other accounts payable and accrued expenses and short-term debt, approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these financial assets and liabilities.
At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the fair value of the Company’s long-term debt based on available market prices and estimates using market data information and appropriate valuation methodologies for the same or similar instruments are summarized as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | Quoted prices | | | Significant | | | | |

(1) | | Senior notes are carried at amortized cost and their carrying value as of December 31, 2008 is $2,707,660. The $2,044,283 represents the estimated fair value of the notes. See Note 11 “Bonds Payable”. |
e. Deferred income taxes -
For MFRS purposes, the Company applies NIF D-4 “Taxes on income”, which supersedes Bulletin D-4 “Accounting for income and asset taxes and employee statutory profit sharing” and Bulletins 53 and 54. The principal considerations established by this NIF are: (i) the balance of the cumulative IT effects resulting from the initial adoption of Bulletin D-4 in 2000 is reclassified to retained earnings, unless identified with any other comprehensive item pending reclassification; (ii) the accounting treatment of ESPS (current and deferred) is transferred to NIF D-3. For purposes of the reconciliation to U.S. GAAP, the Company has applied Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes” (FAS 109), for all periods presented.
FAS 109 requires an asset and liability method of accounting, whereby, deferred taxes are recognized for the future tax consequences of all temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the related tax bases of assets and liabilities. Under U.S. GAAP, the effect on deferred taxes of changes in tax rates is recognized in the income statement in the period in which the tax rates are enacted.
FAS 109 requires deferred tax assets to be reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, including cumulative losses in recent years, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Accordingly, for 2006, the Company established a valuation allowance for the amount of the deferred tax assets that the Company estimated will not result in a future tax benefit.
F-83
MAXCOM TELECOMUNICACIONES, S. A. B. DE C. V. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Thousands of Mexican pesos — note 5)
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of projections for future taxable income over the periods which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not the company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences, net of the existing valuation allowance as of December 31, 2008 and 2007. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period are reduced.
In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.109” (FIN 48). On January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FIN 48, which clarifies the accounting for uncertain tax positions. This interpretation requires that an entity recognizes in the consolidated financial statements the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The adoption of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007 did not have any effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company’s accounting policy is to accrue interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if and when required, as selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
As of January 1, 2007 and for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits and thus no interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits were recorded. In addition, the Company does not expect that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly within the next 12 months. The income tax returns of the Company and its subsidiaries remain subject to examination by the local tax authorities for the tax years beginning in 2002 in Mexico and 2005 in U.S.

f. Cash flow information -
The statements of changes in financial position were presented for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, as mentioned in Note 5.
Under U.S. GAAP, a statement of cash flows is a required component of a complete set of financial statements, which presents cash transactions, and additional information about non-cash investing and financing activities shall be disclosed.
On January 1, 2008, MFRS B-2 became effective; therefore, management included the statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2008 as part of the basic financial statements with prospective application.
The statement of cash flows prepared in accordance with MFRS for the year ending December 31, 2008 presents substantially the same information as that required under US GAAP as interpreted by SFAS No. 95, except for certain differences in presentation.
The following price-level adjusted consolidated statement of cash flows presented for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, includes the effect of inflation in conformity with recommendations established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants SEC Regulations Committees’ International Practices Task Force.

g. Operating income -
MFRS allows certain non-recurring charges, such as asset write-offs, to be classified as non-operating. For the years ended 2008, 2007 and 2006, these charges were $12,616, $12,819, and $18,777, respectively.
Under U.S. GAAP, such items are considered part of operating income.
h. New U.S. GAAP accounting pronouncements -
In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 141(R), Business Combinations, and FASB Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment to ARB No. 51. Statements 141(R) and 160 require most identifiable assets, liabilities, noncontrolling interests, and goodwill acquired in a business combination to be recorded at “full fair value” and require noncontrolling interests (previously referred to as minority interests) to be reported as a component of equity, which changes the accounting for transactions with noncontrolling interest holders. Both Statements are effective for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and earlier adoption is prohibited. Statement 141(R) will be applied to business combinations occurring after the effective date. Statement 160 will be applied prospectively to all noncontrolling interests, including any that arose before the effective date. All of the Company’s subsidiaries are wholly owned, so the adoption of Statement 160 is not expected to impact its financial position and results of operations. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting Statement 141(R) on its financial position and results of operations.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (“SFAS No. 161”). SFAS No. 161 requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities. Under SFAS No. 161, entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities and its related interpretations; and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 is effective beginning January 1, 2009 (the first day of fiscal 2009). SFAS No. 161 encourages comparative disclosures for earlier periods at initial adoption. The Company is currently analyzing the effect that this statement will have on its financial position and results of operations.

(Thousands of Mexican pesos — note 5)
In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP FASB Statement (“FSP FAS”) No. 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets (“FSP FAS No. 142-3”). FSP FAS No. 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. FSP FAS No. 142-3 also requires expanded disclosure related to the determination of intangible asset useful lives, effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect any material impact on its financial position and results of operations with the adoption of this statement.
In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. APB 14-1, Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled In Cash Upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement) (“FSP APB 14-1”). FSP APB 14-1 changes the accounting treatment for convertible debt instruments that require or permit partial cash settlement upon conversion. The accounting changes require issuers to separate convertible debt instruments into two components: a non-convertible bond and a conversion option. The separation of the conversion option creates an original issue discount in the bond component which is to be amortized as interest expense over the term of the instrument using the interest method, resulting in an increase to interest expense and a decrease in net income and earnings per share. The Company does not expect any material impact on its financial position and results of operations with the adoption of this statement.
In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“SFAS No. 162”). SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the accounting principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP. This statement will be effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with GAAP. The Company does not expect any material impact on its financial position and results of operations with the adoption of this statement.
In December 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 132 (R)-1, Employers’ Disclosures about Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets (FSP 132 (R)-1). FSP 132 (R)-1 requires plan sponsors, to provide improved disclosures about plan assets, including categories of plan assets, nature and amount of concentrations of risk and disclosure about fair value measurements of plan assets, similar to those required by SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements.. The disclosures about plan assets required by this FSP shall be provided for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2009.

In May 2009 the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events”, which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. SFAS 165 sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements and the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. SFAS 165 becomes effective to interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. We do not expect any material impact from adoption of SFAS 165 on our consolidated financial position or results of operations since we already evaluate events or transactions that may affect recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets — an amendment of Statement No. 140”, which improves the relevance, representational faithfulness and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. This Statement must be applied as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. This Statement must be applied to transfers occurring on or after the effective date. We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption of SFAS 166 on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)”, which improves financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities. The Board developed this pronouncement to address (1) the effects on certain provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”, as a result of the elimination of the qualifying special-purpose entity concept in FASB Statement No. 166, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets”, and (2) constituent concerns about the application of certain key provisions of Interpretation 46(R), including those in which the accounting and disclosures under the Interpretation do not always provide timely and useful information about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest entity. This Statement shall be effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption of SFAS 167 on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
