Vassily Sidorov, MTS’ President and CEO, stated: “We are presenting strong results today that demonstrate a continued growth in our customer base and a robust increase in our revenues and net earnings. Our consolidated subscriber base now totals 48.2 million. Looking ahead, we expect to surpass a milestone of 50 million in the next couple of months, which would propel us to one of the top ten largest mobile phone operators in the world in terms of subscribers.
“As part of our efforts to deliver a more rewarding experience to our customers, we will be launching i-mode services in Moscow and St Petersburg in mid-September. We continue to see i-mode as pivotal in providing a platform for future revenue growth from value-added services, and as a strong differentiator for our business in various markets.
“In Ukraine, where the business climate has improved following a stabilization in the political process, MTS remains the leading operator despite an increasingly competitive environment. In Uzbekistan, the market is expanding, underlining our belief that new CIS markets represent attractive growth opportunities. We continue to lead the market in Uzbekistan with a market share of 57%, and see strong subscriber additions in Belarus, where our market share rose further to 51%.
“At the end of the second quarter we completed an acquisition in Turkmenistan, extending our license portfolio by 6.6 million people and providing us with the leading position on this market. With just over 1% mobile penetration, this market is expected to grow on the back of an untapped demand for telecommunications services.
“Overall, our business continues to perform very well and we are on track for 25+% top line growth for this year. There are no changes to our guidance of low-50% for our OIBDA margin for the year. On CAPEX, we are spending not more than $100 per new subscriber, and our total should not exceed $2 billion for the year.”
Operating Overview
Market Growth
MTS’ principal markets – Russia and Ukraine – continue to demonstrate significant growth. In the second quarter of 2005 mobile penetration(5) in Russia increased from 59% to 67%, and from 34% to 41% in Ukraine. This growth is a result of new users joining mobile networks as disposable income in both countries continues to rise, coupled with the growth in multi-SIM card ownership. In Belarus, mobile penetration increased from 28% to 32% for the same period.
MTS’ new markets are showing impressive progress and continue to represent attractive growth prospects. Mobile penetration in Uzbekistan increased from 2.3% to 3.0% during the second quarter. Mobile penetration in Turkmenistan, where MTS acquired the leading mobile phone operator, is at around 1%.
Subscriber Development
MTS’ net subscriber additions in the second quarter of 2005 were at 5.38 million, all of which were added organically with the exception of 59 thousand subscribers added through the acquisition in Turkmenistan. In all of its markets, MTS continued to show positive subscriber dynamics, with net additions amounting to 3.84 million in Russia, 1.44 million in Ukraine, and around 46 thousand in Uzbekistan. Net additions by MTS’ joint venture in Belarus(6) were 210 thousand for the same period.
Due to MTS’ improved focus on customer loyalty and subscriber retention, and the implementation of a number of CRM campaigns, the Company’s second quarter 2005 churn rate

(6) MTS owns a 49% stake in Belarus operator, Mobile TeleSystems LLC, which is not consolidated.

in Russia substantially declined compared to the same period in the prior year to 6.8%. In Ukraine, churn increased insignificantly compared to the prior year to 5.7%.
Since the end of the second quarter to August 29, 2005, MTS’ subscriber net additions were 4.2 million, expanding its consolidated subscriber base to 48.23 million.
Market Share
In Russia, MTS accounted for around 32% of new subscriber additions during the second quarter and maintained its leading position with a market share of approximately 35%. In Ukraine, the Company accounted for around 44% of new subscriber additions and showed a slight decline in market share to 49% at the end of the period. MTS’ market share in Uzbekistan, estimated by the Company, was at 57%(7). In Belarus, the market share of MTS Belarus increased by 1% during the quarter to reach 51%.
Customer Segmentation
Subscriptions to MTS’ pre-paid tariff plans (Jeans in Russia, and Jeans and SIM-SIM in Ukraine) accounted for 92% of gross additions in Russia and 95% in Ukraine. By the end of the second quarter of 2005, 83% of MTS’ customers in Russia were signed up to pre-paid tariff plans; 88% in Ukraine.

(9) The significant decrease in the quarterly churn rate to 1.7% can be largely attributed to the adoption in Ukraine of the churn policy used by MTS in Russia, whereby pre-paid customers are defined as churning after six months of inactivity, rather than
the previous three month criteria. Under the previous churn calculation, quarterly churn rate in Q4 2004 was at 7.2%.

Russia
• Revenues up 28% year-on-year to $928 million(10)
• OIBDA up 19% year-on-year to $491 million (OIBDA margin of 53%)
• Net income increased 0.1% year-on-year to $209 million
MTS’ average monthly minutes of usage per subscriber (MOU) in Russia decreased in the second quarter of 2005. The decline was driven by a dilution of the subscriber mix by low usage customers and the discontinuation of free minute promotions during the quarter. However, MOU of premium(11) subscribers increased to 282 minutes from 247 minutes.
The average monthly service revenue per subscriber (ARPU) in Russia increased as a result of discontinued promotions, seasonally higher roaming revenues, and increased usage of post-paid subscribers.
Subscriber acquisition cost per gross additional subscriber (SAC) in Russia remained unchanged at $18.
MTS accrued a contribution to the Universal Service Fund equal to 1.2% of its service revenues in Russia for two months of the second quarter of 2005, amounting to a total of approximately $8 million.
Ukraine
• Revenues up 52% year-on-year to $290 million(12)
• OIBDA up 37% year-on-year to $148 million (OIBDA margin of 51%)
• Net income up 52% year-on-year to $89 million
Similar to Russia, decline in MOU in Ukraine was due to the discontinuation of free minute promotions and changes in the customer mix toward more pre-paid customers. At the same time, usage of contract subscribers increased to 354 minutes in the second quarter versus 299 minutes in the previous quarter.
Second quarter 2005 ARPU in Ukraine was $10.8, up from $10.0 in the first quarter. This growth was a result of discontinued promotions and higher usage of contract subscribers, as well the Ukrainian currency appreciation during the quarter (around 4.3%).
SAC in the second quarter of 2005 was significantly down to $14 from $22 in the first quarter due to the reduction in handset subsidies and dealer commissions.
MTS continued to reserve for a potential VAT liability on mobile operators’ contributions to the Ukrainian State Pension Fund(13); the amount reserved in the second quarter of 2005 was $2.5 million and in total stands at $4.7 million. The Company, along with other participants in the market, has received notice from the tax authorities claiming back taxes, however, the
(10) Excluding intercompany eliminations of $0.6 million.
(11) Subscribers signed to MTS family of tariff plans.
(12) Excluding intercompany eliminations of $1.8 million.
(13) From July 1999 to July 2005, 6% of mobile service charges were added to subscribers’ bills as a contribution to the
Ukrainian State Pension Fund, introduced as an additional tax levied on mobile services, to be incurred by the subscriber. VAT has not been applied to subscribers’ contribution to the Ukrainian State Pension Fund since the establishment of the levy in 1999. From August 1, 2005 the levy was increased to 7.5%.
5
applicability of VAT on the Pension Fund levy is still contested, and the matter is yet to be finally clarified.
Uzbekistan
MTS’ operations in Uzbekistan contributed $20.4 million to the Company’s consolidated revenues, $12.6 million to its consolidated OIBDA (OIBDA margin of 62%), and $6 million to its consolidated net income. Second quarter ARPU was $17.6, up from $16.8 in the previous quarter.
Turkmenistan
At the end of June 2005, MTS acquired a 51% controlling stake in BCTI, a U.S.-registered company that is the leading mobile phone operator in the Republic of Turkmenistan, for $28 million, with an agreement to increase its ownership to 100% by the end of February 2006, subject to certain conditions. The company serviced 59 thousand subscribers at the end of the second quarter. This acquisition was made at the very end of the quarter and did not affect MTS’ consolidated income statement for the period.
Financial Position
The Company’s cash expenditure on property, plant and equipment – capital expenditures – in the second quarter of 2005 amounted to $315 million ($187 million in Russia; $118 million in Ukraine; $10 million in Uzbekistan). In addition, its cash expenditure on intangible assets during the quarter amounted to $21 million ($3 million in Russia; $15 million in Ukraine; $3 million in Uzbekistan). MTS’ capital expenditures totaled $767 million for the first half of 2005 (approximately $78 per net addition).
The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments increased to $728 million at the end of the second quarter of 2005. As of June 30, 2005, MTS’ total debt(14) was at $2.4 billion. Net debt amounted to $1.6 billion at the end of the quarter and the net debt to LTM OIBDA(15) ratio decreased to 0.7 times, compared to 0.8 times at the end of 2004.

Attachments to the Second Quarter 2005 Earnings Press Release
Attachment A
Non-GAAP financial measures. This press release includes financial information prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or US GAAP, as well as other financial measures referred to as non-GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with US GAAP.
Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization (OIBDA) and OIBDA margin. OIBDA represents operating income before depreciation and amortization. OIBDA margin is defined as OIBDA as a percentage of our net revenues. Our OIBDA may not be similar to OIBDA measures of other companies; it is not a measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information contained in our consolidated statement of operations. We believe that OIBDA provides useful information to investors because it is an indicator of the strength and performance of our ongoing business operations, including our ability to fund discretionary spending such as capital expenditures, acquisitions of mobile operators and other investments and our ability to incur and service debt. While depreciation and amortization are considered operating costs under generally accepted accounting principles, these expenses primarily represent the non-cash current period allocation of costs associated with long-lived assets acquired or constructed in prior periods. Our OIBDA calculation is commonly used as one of the bases for investors, analysts and credit rating agencies to evaluate and compare the periodic and future operating performance and value of companies within the wireless telecommunications industry. OIBDA can be reconciled to our consolidated statements of operations as follows:

Definitions
Subscriber. We define a “subscriber” as an individual or organization whose account does not have a negative balance for more than sixty-one days, or one hundred and eighty three days in the case of our Jeans brand tariff launched in November 2002.
Average monthly service revenue per subscriber (ARPU). We calculate our average monthly service revenue per subscriber by dividing our service revenues for a given period, including guest roaming fees, by the average number of our subscribers during that period and dividing by the number of months in that period.
Average monthly minutes of usage per subscriber (MOU). MOU is calculated by dividing the total number of minutes of usage during a given period by the average number of our subscribers during the period and dividing by the number of months in that period.
Churn. We define our “churn” as the total number of subscribers who cease to be a “subscriber” as defined above during the period (whether involuntarily due to non-payment or voluntarily, at such subscriber’s request), expressed as a percentage of the average number of our subscribers during that period.
Subscriber acquisition cost (SAC). We define SAC as total sales and marketing expenses and handset subsidies for a given period. Sales and marketing expenses include advertising expenses and commissions to dealers. SAC per gross additional subscriber is calculated by dividing SAC during a given period by the total number of gross subscribers added by us during the period.
