NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)
1. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Syniverse Holdings, LLC (the Ultimate Parent or Syniverse LLC) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2004.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Syniverse Holdings, LLC, Syniverse Holdings, Inc. (Syniverse Inc.), Syniverse Technologies, Inc. (Syniverse), Syniverse Finance, Inc. (Syniverse Finance), Syniverse Networks, Inc. (Syniverse Networks), Syniverse Technologies, BV (Syniverse BV), for periods beginning on and after February 14, 2002, Syniverse Brience, LLC (Syniverse Brience) and Syniverse Holdings Limited (Syniverse Holdings). References to “the Company”, “us”, or “we” include all of the consolidated companies. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
In July 2003, Syniverse LLC acquired Brience, Inc. (Brience) by merging Brience with and into Syniverse Brience, LLC (Syniverse Brience). At the time of the Brience merger, funds associated with GTCR Golder Rauner, LLC had a controlling interest in both Brience and Syniverse LLC. Due to common control of both Syniverse LLC and Brience since February 14, 2002 by funds associated with GTCR, the acquisition was accounted for in a manner similar to a pooling of interests. Therefore, all historical financial statements of Syniverse LLC since February 14, 2002 include Brience’s historical financial results.
Syniverse LLC acquired Syniverse Holdings on December 19, 2003. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and the results of operations of Syniverse Holdings have been included since December 19, 2003.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition
We derive revenues from five primary categories: Network Services, Number Porting Services, Technology Interoperability Services, Call Processing Services, and Other Outsourcing Services. The revenue recognition policy for each of these areas is as follows:
• | Network Services primarily generate revenue by charging per-transaction processing fees, circuit fees and port fees. The monthly SS7 connection fee is based on the number of links as well as the number of switches to which a customer signals and is recognized in the period when the service is rendered. The per-transaction fees are based on the number of subscriber events and database queries made through our network and are recognized as revenues at the time the transactions are performed. Syniverse Brience’s software revenues are generated through license fees, maintenance agreements and professional services. License fee revenues consist principally of revenue from the licensing of our software. Revenue is recognized from software license fees on a straight-line basis over the period beginning with the completion of implementation and customer acceptance and ending with conclusion of the first maintenance period. Maintenance agreements call for us to provide technical support and software enhancements to customers. Revenue on technical support and software enhancement rights is recognized ratably over the term of the support agreement.Professional services include consulting, training and installation services to our customers. Revenue from such services is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the same period as the software license fee. |
• | Number Porting Servicesprimarily generate revenues by charging per-transaction processing fees, monthly fixed fees, and fees for customer implementations. We defer revenues related to customer implementations, and recognize these fees on a straight-line basis over the life of the initial customer agreements. We recognize processing revenues at the time the transactions and services are performed. |
6
Table of Contents
• | Technology Interoperability Services primarily generate revenues by charging per-transaction processing fees. For our wireless roaming, wireline and SMS clearinghouse services, revenues vary based on the number of data/messaging records provided to us by telecommunications carriers for aggregation, translation and distribution among carriers. These revenues are based on the number of wireless roaming subscriber telephone calls and messages that take place on our customers’ networks. We recognize revenues at the time the transactions are performed. |
• | Call Processing Services primarily generate revenue by charging per-transaction processing fees and software licensing fees. The per-transaction fee is based on the number of validation, authorization, and other call processing messages generated by wireless subscribers and is recognized as revenue at the time the transactions are performed. We also provide turnkey software solutions for which we charge customers a software licensing fee. For turnkey software, we recognize revenue when accepted by the customer. |
• | Other Outsourcing Services primarily generate revenue by charging per-subscriber fees. We recognize revenues at the time the service is performed. |
Due to our billing cycles, which for some products lag as much as 60 days after services are rendered, we estimate the amounts of unbilled revenue each reporting period. Our estimates are based on recent volume and pricing trends adjusted for material changes in contracted service. Historically, our estimates have correlated well with our actual billed revenue. Unanticipated changes in volume and pricing trends or material changes in contracted service could adversely affect our estimates of unbilled revenue.
Stock-Based Compensation
We account for our stock options and related grants thereunder using the intrinsic value method prescribed in APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” However, pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation” (SFAS 123), is provided in our financial statements and is determined as if we had accounted for our employee and non-employee director stock options under the fair value method of SFAS 123, as amended by SFAS 148.
Outstanding options as of June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003 had a weighted average remaining contractual life of 8.6 and 8.9 years, respectively.
Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by SFAS 123, which also requires that the information be determined as if we had accounted for our employee stock options granted subsequent to December 31, 1994 under the fair value method set forth in SFAS 123. The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:
Six Months Ended June 30, | ||||||
2004 | 2003 | |||||
Risk-free interest rate | 4.30 | % | 4.30 | % | ||
Volatility factor | — | — | ||||
Dividend yield | — | — | ||||
Weighted average expected life of options | 5 | 5 |
The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Since Syniverse Inc.’s common stock does not trade on public markets, a volatility of 0% was entered into the Black-Scholes option valuation model. Because our stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of our employee stock options. Our pro forma amounts are immaterially different from the reported net income amounts and hence are not disclosed.

Earnings Per Share
We do not present earnings per share since Syniverse LLC’s units are not publicly traded and the calculation would be meaningless due to the small number of units outstanding.
Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Other comprehensive income (loss) includes foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities classified as available-for-sale. Other comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 is as follows:
Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | ||||||||||||||
2004 | 2003 | 2004 | 2003 | ||||||||||||
Net income (loss) | $ | 10,620 | $ | 1,287 | $ | 11,831 | $ | (1,892 | ) | ||||||
Net unrealized gain on investments | 41 | — | 9 | — | |||||||||||
Foreign currency translation adjustment | (26 | ) | — | (6 | ) | — | |||||||||
Other comprehensive income (loss) | $ | 10,635 | $ | 1,287 | $ | 11,834 | $ | (1,892 | ) | ||||||
The balance in our accumulated other comprehensive income as of June 30, 2004 is comprised of $435 in unrealized gains and $(6) in foreign currency translation adjustments.
Available-for-Sale Securities
Our investments in equity securities are composed of a less than 10% ownership in a small publicly held company, and are categorized as available-for-sale as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities” (SFAS 115). These equity securities are included in other current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and are recorded at fair value based on quoted market prices. The cost of each equity security is determined primarily on a specific identification method. Unrealized holding gains and losses are reflected, net of income tax, as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). At June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, available-for-sale securities had a fair value of $435 and $426, respectively. Because the cost of these securities had previously been written off due to other-than temporary declines in value, the fair value of these securities reflects unrealized holding gains of $435 and $426 at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.
Foreign Currency Translation
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 52, “Foreign Currency Translation” (SFAS 52), income and expense accounts of foreign operations are translated at the weighted average exchange rates during the year. Assets, including goodwill, and liabilities of foreign operations that operate in a local currency environment are translated to U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, with the related translation gains or losses reported as a separate component of unitholders’ equity.
Segment Information
In all periods, we operated as a single segment. In the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, we derived 90.7% and 87.4%, respectively, of our revenues from customers in the United States. In the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, we derived 89.6% and 87.5%, respectively, of our revenues from customers in the United States.
3. Unitholders’ Interests
The Class B Preferred Units are entitled to an annual cumulative preferred yield of 10.0%, compounded quarterly. At June 30, 2004, there were 252,367.50 of Class B Preferred Units outstanding. As of June 30, 2004, undeclared and unpaid preferred unit dividends totaled $66,920. These amounts are not recorded as liabilities until declared.
In the six months ended June 30, 2004, 135,135 common units were issued for $4 to a company executive. In the six months ended June 30, 2003, 405,405 common units were issued for $13 and 270,270 common units were repurchased for $9 from certain company executives.

4. Restructurings
On February 28, 2003, we completed a restructuring plan resulting in the termination of 71 employees or approximately 10.6% of our workforce. As a result, we incurred $1,841 in severance related costs in February 2003. The payments related to this restructuring were completed in November 2003. We expected this reorganization to result in reduced annual expenses of approximately $5,838.
On April 20, 2004, we completed a restructuring plan in connection with our acquisition of Syniverse Holdings resulting in the termination of 10 employees. As a result, we incurred $289 in severance related costs in April 2004. The payments related to this were completed in April 2004. We expect this reorganization to result in reduced annual expenses of approximately $1,080. Further restructuring may be necessary in light of current economic conditions.
In the six months ended June 30, 2004, we had the following activity in our restructuring accruals:
January 1, 2004 Balance | Additions | Payments | June 30, 2004 Balance | ||||||||||
April 2004 Restructuring Termination costs | $ | 93 | $ | 289 | $ | (382 | ) | $ | — | ||||
Total | $ | 93 | $ | 289 | $ | (382 | ) | $ | — | ||||
5. Commitments and contingencies
Under the terms of the Syniverse Holdings acquisition agreement, we agreed to make an additional payment not to exceed 2,000 British pounds to the former owners of the acquired company no later than March 31, 2005 if this operation achieves a certain pre-determined profitability as measured by EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization). No amounts have been accrued for this additional earn-out as of June 30, 2004.
We are currently a party to various claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business. We believe such claims and legal actions, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. As of June 30, 2004, we have considered all of the claims and disputes of which we are aware and accrued amounts in our analysis of doubtful accounts, allowances for credit memos or probable loss accruals.
The most significant of these claims, in terms of dollars sought, is described below.
SBC Communications, Inc., d/b/a SBC Ameritech, SBC Southwestern Bell and SBC Pacific Bell (collectively, SBC), have asserted claims against us in the total principal sum of $7,281, based on alleged overcharging for QRS and CNAM hubbing and transport services we provided. SBC also has refused to pay us an additional $1,900 related to these same services. We deny the claims and believe they are unfounded and intend to vigorously defend ourselves. On April 15, 2003, we filed suit against SBC Southwestern Bell and SBC Pacific Bell in Hillsborough County Circuit Court seeking monetary damages and a determination that SBC is not entitled to any sum it claims it is owed. Our lawsuit was removed to Federal Court by SBC on the grounds of diversity jurisdiction. We disputed the grounds for removal and moved to remand the action to state court. The Federal Court granted our motion to remand and the action is now pending in state court in Florida. SBC Pacific Bell also filed a motion to dismiss the Florida action on the grounds of a lack of jurisdiction, while SBC Southwestern Bell filed a motion to abate and/or transfer the Florida action based on a lawsuit SBC Southwestern Bell filed against us in Texas state court on October 6, 2003 seeking approximately $2,000. We retained Texas counsel to seek a stay of the Texas proceedings pending disposition of the matter in Florida. On April 20, 2004, the Texas Court granted our request and abated the Texas action. SBC Pacific Bell withdrew its motion to dismiss the Florida action. Both SBC Southwestern Bell and SBC Pacific Bell have filed an answer and counterclaim in the Florida action. On June 28, 2004, SBC Ameritech filed a Demand for Arbitration in Chicago seeking $2,122 it claims it was over billed by us. We filed a motion to dismiss/abate the Demand based on SBC Ameritech’s failure to engage in mediation prior to Arbitration, as required by the contract under which it alleges it was over billed.
6. Second Amendment to Credit Agreement
On March 11, 2004, we entered into the Second Amendment (the “Second Amendment”) with our lenders (Term B Loan and Revolving Credit) signatory thereto and Lehman Commercial Paper Inc., as administrative agent for the lenders (the “Agent”). The Second Amendment amends our senior credit facility by (i) providing for the incurrence under our senior credit

facility of new Term B Loans, which will refinance, in full, all remaining outstanding Term B Loans and (ii) reduces the percentage of Excess Cash Flow which must be applied to prepay the loans to 75%. The Applicable Margin with respect to the Term B Loans is 2.5% for Base Rate Loans and 3.5% for Eurodollar Loans. The cost of the amendment of $407 was recognized in interest expense in the six months ended June 30, 2004.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Executive Overview
We are a global communications technology company specializing in innovative business and network engineering solutions that manage and interconnect voice and data systems throughout the world. Our services include transaction-based, network, number portability, technology interoperability, call processing and other outsourcing services that simplify the interconnection and management of complex voice and data networks. We address technology interoperability complexities as the largest clearinghouse in the United States for the billing and settlement of wireless roaming telephone calls, with an estimated market share of approximately 60% in 2003 based on the number of wireless subscribers. We also own one of the largest unaffiliated Signaling System 7 (SS7) networks in the United States. SS7 is the telecommunication industry’s standard network signaling protocol used by nearly all carriers to enable the setup and delivery of wireless and wireline telephone calls. Our network services also allow our customers to access intelligent network services and monitor network performance and subscriber activity on a real-time basis. In addition, we are the industry’s leading developer and provider of call processing solutions that enable seamless regional, national and international wireless roaming telephone service. We are the leading provider of wireless local number portability (WLNP) in the United States, having developed and launched the wireless industry’s only end-to-end solution for wireless carriers. Our full suite of products addresses pre-provisioning of subscribers, intercarrier communication necessary for actual porting to a new carrier, and porting failures, known as fallout. Our solutions are offered as either service bureau or turnkey, providing flexibility for carriers. We have dominant market share for WLNP based on contracts with five of the top six U.S. carriers, representing 92% of the available intercarrier communications service bureau customers, and 70% of the inter-carrier communications clearinghouse market.
On February 14, 2002, Syniverse Holdings, Inc. acquired Syniverse Technologies, Inc. by merging its wholly owned subsidiary, TSI Merger Sub, Inc., with and into Syniverse Technologies, Inc. Syniverse Holdings, Inc. is wholly owned by Syniverse Holdings, LLC. Syniverse Holdings, LLC and Syniverse Holdings, Inc. have no operations other than their ownership of their direct and indirect subsidiaries.
On July 23, 2003, Syniverse Networks, Inc. acquired Brience, Inc. (Brience) by issuing 100,000 common units of Syniverse Holdings, LLC and merging Brience with and into Syniverse Brience, LLC (Syniverse Brience), a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary of Syniverse Networks, Inc., with Syniverse Brience continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly owned subsidiary of Syniverse Networks, Inc.
At the time of the Brience merger, funds associated with GTCR Golder Rauner, LLC had a controlling interest in both Brience and Syniverse Holdings, LLC. As a result, the transaction was accounted for as a combination of entities under common control, similar to a pooling of interests, whereby the assets and liabilities of Brience were combined at their historical amounts as of the date that GTCR Golder Rauner, LLC had control of both entities (February 14, 2002). For historical accounting purposes, the historical financial results of Brience have only been combined for the periods during which Syniverse Holdings, LLC and Brience were under common control of funds associated with GTCR Golder Rauner, LLC. Accordingly, our historical consolidated financial statements since February 14, 2002 include the financial results of Brience beginning on the date when funds associated with GTCR Golder Rauner, LLC had common control of both entities (February 14, 2002).
On December 19, 2003, Syniverse Technologies, Inc. acquired all the outstanding shares of Syniverse Holdings Limited (Syniverse Holdings) for $0.8 million cash and the assumption of liabilities of $1.3 million. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, and hence the results of operations of Syniverse Holdings have been included since December 19, 2003.
Introduction
We provide a diverse set of services to meet the evolving requirements of the telecommunications industry. Our services are categorized into the following groups:
• | Network Services - We provide our customers with connectivity to our SS7 network and other widely used communications networks (e.g., X.25, Frame Relay and IP). SS7 is the telecommunication industry’s standard network signaling protocol used by almost every carrier in North America to enable the setup and delivery of wireless and wireline telephone calls. A telephone call has two components: the call content (e.g., voice, video or data) and the signaling information (e.g., caller information, number called and subscriber validation). SS7 is the transport network for this signaling information. We also provide Web-based analysis and reporting services, allowing our customers to access real-time subscriber activity, monitor their networks, troubleshoot customer care issues and handle network management tasks seamlessly. In addition, use of our SS7 network facilitates access to intelligent network services, such as local number portability (LNP), line information database (LIDB), toll-free |

Table of Contents
database and Caller ID. Our primary services in this group are INLink, Visibility, the SS7 Database Access services, Inpack, and CCNS. We also offer software and services that enable secure application and mobile data communication across multiple devices, software platforms, and networks. Mobile Processing Server (MPS) is an integrated software design and development environment for building mobile solutions that provide a compelling user experience across multiple device form factors ranging from cell phones to PDAs. |
• | Number Porting Services -The Telecommunications Act of 1996 mandates number portability as a means to promote competition for phone service. Number portability means that a subscriber can switch telephone service providers but retain the existing telephone number. Wireline carriers in the largest markets have offered number portability since 1998. After numerous delays and postponements, wireless carriers in the top 100 markets were required to offer wireless local number portability as of November 24, 2003. The implementation of WLNP fundamentally changed the way the wireless industry identifies phone numbers and routes calls. Additionally, porting a number from one carrier to another is an exceedingly complex process that minimally requires eleven “transactions” or exchanges of information between carriers and between carriers and the Number Portability Administration Center (NPAC). Furthermore, the method for porting a wireline number to a wireless phone is not standardized. We developed the industry’s only end-to-end, fully integrated suite of services to enable wireless carriers to meet the FCC-mandated November 2003 deadline for WLNP. Our suite of WLNP services address inter-carrier communication, communication with the NPAC and system and help desk troubleshooting that is necessary when ports fail, known as “fallout.” Our specific services include Pre-Port Validation, Inter-carrier Communication (ICC) Service Order Activation (SOA) Service Bureau, ICC Clearinghouse, Wireline-to-Wireless Porting, Fallout Management/Port Center, and Workflow Management. Similarly, we have contracts to provide the same WLNP services to other carriers to meet the May 2004 deadlines for the secondary and tertiary markets. |
• | Technology Interoperability Services - We address technology interoperability complexities by acting as the primary point of contact for hundreds of wireless carriers for the processing of roaming billing and short message service (SMS) transactions across substantially all network, signaling, billing and messaging standards. Our clearinghouse services have established us as the trusted third-party for the collection, translation and exchange of proprietary subscriber billing data and messages between carriers on a secure, confidential and timely basis. Our primary services in this group are ACCESS, ACCESS S&E, UniRoam, Access Revenue Management and Message Management. |
• | Call Processing Services - We offer telecommunication carriers comprehensive call processing services that employ advanced technologies to provide subscriber verification, call delivery and technical fraud detection and prevention regardless of switch type, billing format or signaling standard. These services support seamless regional, national and international telephone roaming service for wireless subscribers. Our primary services in this group are FraudManager, Follow Me Roaming Plus, Key Management Center and FraudX. |
• | Other Outsourcing Services - We provide other value-added outsourcing services including a telematics solution that enables trucking and distribution companies to track vehicle location and improve fleet utilization and outsourced services that enhance carriers’ ability to manage and consolidate billing for their enterprise customer accounts. Our primary services in this group are STREAMLINER and Fleet-On-Track. |
Revenues
Our revenues are primarily derived from the sale of our Network Services, Number Porting Services, Technology Interoperability Services and Call Processing Services to telecommunication providers throughout the world. To a lesser extent, we also generate revenues from Other Outsourcing Services. In order to encourage greater usage, we negotiate tiered pricing schedules with our customers based on certain established transaction volume levels. As a result, we expect the average price per transaction for many of our products to decline as customers increasingly use our services.
We believe there is minimal seasonality in our business. However, there is generally a slight increase in wireless roaming telephone usage traffic and corresponding revenues in the high-travel months of the second and third fiscal quarters.
• | Network Services primarily generate revenue by charging per-transaction processing fees, circuit fees and port fees. The monthly SS7 connection fee is based on the number of links as well as the number of switches to which a customer signals. The per-transaction fees are based on the number of subscriber events and database queries made through our network and are recognized as revenues at the time the transactions are performed. Syniverse Brience’s software revenues are generated through license fees, maintenance agreements and professional services. License fee revenues consist principally of revenue from the licensing of our software. Revenue is recognized from software license fees on a straight-line basis over the period beginning with the completion of |

implementation and customer acceptance and ending with the conclusion of the first maintenance period. Maintenance agreements call for us to provide technical support and software enhancements to customers. Revenue on technical support and software enhancement rights is recognized ratably over the term of the support agreement. Professional services include consulting, training and installation services to our customers. Revenue from such services is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the same period as the software license fee.
• | Number Porting Services primarily generate revenues by charging per-transaction processing fees, monthly fixed fees, and fees for customer implementations. We defer revenues related to customer implementations, and recognize these fees on a straight-line basis over the life of the initial customer agreements. We recognize processing revenues at the time the transactions and services are performed. |
• | Technology Interoperability Servicesprimarily generate revenues by charging per-transaction processing fees. For our wireless roaming, wireline and SMS clearinghouse services, revenues vary based on the number of data/messaging records provided to us by telecommunications carriers for aggregation, translation and distribution among carriers. These records are based on the number of wireless roaming subscriber telephone calls and messages that take place on our customers’ networks. We recognize revenues at the time the transactions are performed. |
• | Call Processing Services primarily generate revenue by charging per-transaction processing fees and software licensing fees. The per-transaction fee is based on the number of validation, authorization, and other call processing messages generated by wireless subscribers and is recognized as revenues at the time the transactions are performed. We also provide turnkey software solutions for which we charge customers a software licensing fee. For turnkey software, we recognize revenue when accepted by the customer. |
• | Other Outsourcing Services primarily generate revenue by charging per-subscriber fees. We recognize revenues at the time the service is performed. |
Costs and Expenses
Our costs and expenses consist of cost of operations, sales and marketing, general and administrative, and depreciation and amortization.
• | Cost of operations includes processing costs, network costs, royalty costs, personnel costs associated with service implementation, training and customer care, and off-network database query charges. |
• | Sales and marketing includes personnel costs, advertising costs, trade show costs and relationship marketing costs. |
• | General and administrative consists primarily of research and development expenses, a portion of the expenses associated with our facilities, internal management expenses, business development expenses, and expenses for finance, legal, human resources and other administrative departments. In addition, we incur significant service development costs. These costs, which are primarily personnel, relate to technology creation, enhancement and maintenance of new and existing services. Historically, most of these costs are expensed and recorded as general and administrative expenses. The capitalized portion, which is recorded as capitalized software costs, relates to costs incurred during the application development stage for the new service offerings and significant service enhancements. |
• | Depreciation and amortization relates primarily to our property and equipment including SS7 network and our intangible assets including capitalized software and infrastructure facilities related to information management, research and development and customer care. Beginning in 2004, we also began recognizing amortization expense related to certain intangible assets established as part of our purchase accounting for Syniverse Holdings. |

Comparison of the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003
The historical financial results of Brience, from February 14, 2002, which is the date that GTCR Fund VII, L.P. and its affiliates possessed common control of us and Brience, through July 23, 2003, which is the date that we acquired Brience, are included in our financial results for the applicable periods because this acquisition was accounted for as a combination of entities under common control, similar to a pooling of interests.
Total revenues increased $17.4 million to $84.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $67.5 million for the same period in 2003. Total revenues increased $29.8 million to $161.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $131.8 million for the same period in 2003. The increase in revenues was primarily due to the November 24, 2003 service introduction of our WLNP products and increases in our network transport product and other SS7 services.

Network Services revenues increased $7.8 million to $42.9 million (including $8.1 million of Off-Network Database Query Fees) for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $35.1 million (including $8.1 million of Off-Network Database Query Fees) for the same period in 2003. Network Services revenues increased $9.6 million to $80.1 million (including $15.5 million of Off-Network Database Query Fees) for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $70.5 million (including $16.2 million of Off-Network Database Query Fees) for the same period in 2003. The increase in revenues was primarily due to increases in sales of our network transport product and other SS7 services as well as a reduction in our credit memo reserve resulting from a favorable resolution associated with a specific customer. These were offset by lower Visibility Services volumes
Number Porting Services revenues increased $11.3 million to $11.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $0.5 million for the same period in 2003. Number Porting Services revenues increased $22.2 million to $22.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $0.7 million for the same period in 2003. Number Porting Services includes wireless number pooling, porting and amortization of deferred implementation fees. The increase in revenues was due to the November 24, 2003 service introduction of our WLNP products.
Technology Interoperability Services revenues increased $1.2 million to $18.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $17.1 million for the same period in 2003. Technology Interoperability Services revenues increased $2.0 million to $33.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $31.6 million for the same period in 2003. The increase in revenues was primarily due to higher volumes from our Access and Access S&E products.
Call Processing Services revenues decreased $2.9 million to $8.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $11.1 million for the same period in 2003. Call Processing Services revenues decreased $3.7 million to $17.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $21.3 million for the same period in 2003. The decrease was due to the expected lifecycle migration by carriers who are moving off our call processing platform to implement SS7 connections between their own networks and their roaming partners’ networks. We expect this migration to be accelerated by the complexities associated with WLNP, which requires carriers to use more advanced technology.
Other Outsourcing Services revenues were $3.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and $3.7 million for the same period in 2003. Other Outsourcing Services revenues decreased $0.2 million to $7.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $7.6 million for the same period in 2003. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to a customer migrating off our prepaid wireless solution.
Cost of operations increased $9.7 million to $36.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $26.6 million for the same period in 2003. Cost of operations increased $18.1 million to $71.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $53.3 million for the same period in 2003. The increase was primarily due to increased operational costs related to our new WLNP products.
Sales and marketing expenses increased $0.7 million to $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $4.5 million for the same period in 2003. Sales and marketing expenses increased $0.7 million to $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $9.7 million for the same period in 2003. The increase was due to expenses related to the Syniverse name change offset by lower headcount and employee-related expenses within the sales and marketing organization resulting from the February 2003 reductions in the workforce.
General and administrative expenses decreased $0.9 million to $8.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $9.8 million for the same period in 2003. General and administrative expenses decreased $1.3 million to $17.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $18.8 million for the same period in 2003. The decrease was primarily due to lower development expenses, and the February 2003 reductions in our workforce offset by the inclusion of historical Brience results.
Provision for (recovery of) uncollectible accounts decreased $0.7 million to $(0.3) million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $0.4 million for the same period in 2003. Provision for (recovery of) uncollectible accounts decreased $0.8 million to $0.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $0.8 million for the same period in 2003. The decrease was due to decreases for certain accounts and decreases in the general reserve due to a lower number of customer bankruptcies.
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $0.6 million to $9.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $9.3 million for the same period in 2003. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $1.9 million to $20.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $18.3 million for the same period in 2003. The increase was due primarily to higher depreciation and amortization expenses related to our investments in WLNP and our SS7 network expansion in 2003 and $0.7 million of amortization for the remaining trademark intangible asset related to our prior name.
Restructuring expenses increased $0.3 million to $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $0.0 million for the same period in 2003. Restructuring expenses decreased $1.5 million to $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $1.8 million for the same period in 2003. On April 20, 2004, we completed a restructuring plan in connection with our

acquisition of Syniverse Holdings resulting in the termination of 10 employees. As a result, we incurred $0.3 million in severance related costs in April 2004. On February 28, 2003, we completed a restructuring plan, resulting in the termination of 71 employees or approximately 10.6% of our workforce. As a result, we incurred $1.8 million in severance related costs in February 2003.
Interest income increased $0.3 million to $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $0.1 million for the same period in 2003. Interest income increased $0.2 million to $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $0.4 million for the same period in 2003. The increase was due to higher interest collections from our customers in 2004.
Interest expense decreased $1.5 million to $12.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $13.9 million for the same period in 2003. Interest expense decreased $4.8 million to $26.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $31.1 million for the same period in 2003. The decrease was primarily due to a lower principal balance on the senior credit facility.
Provision for income taxes increased $0.3 million to $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $1.8 million for the same period in 2003. Provision for income taxes increased $3.8 million to $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $0.4 million for the same period in 2003. In 2004, our provision represents the increase in deferred tax liabilities associated with nondeductible goodwill. The increase was primarily due to the continued recognition of a significant valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (SFAS 109), requires a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based upon the weight of evidence, its 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 temporary differences and NOLs (net operating losses) become deductible or are utilized. Primarily as a result of our impairment loss in the fourth quarter of 2003, we concluded that it was appropriate to establish a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets, excluding goodwill. The deferred tax assets arise primarily from accumulated federal and state net operating losses of approximately $92 million and $252 million, respectively, which expire between 2006 and 2022. These losses relate primarily to Brience’s operations in periods prior to the February 14, 2002 date when those results have been included in our financial statements. In addition, because we do not amortize goodwill for financial reporting purposes and cannot predict if and when this deferred tax liability will be utilized, we are unable to consider the associated deferred tax liabilities of approximately $23.9 million in this analysis.
Undeclared and unpaid preferred unit dividends were $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and $7.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Undeclared and unpaid preferred unit dividends were $15.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and $13.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The preferred unit dividends relate to the 10% preferred yield on the Class B preferred units issued on February 14, 2002. These dividends compound quarterly. The amounts are not recorded as liabilities until declared.
Restructurings
On February 28, 2003, we completed a restructuring plan resulting in the termination of 71 employees or approximately 10.6% of our workforce. As a result, we incurred $1.8 million in severance related costs in February 2003. The payments related to this restructuring were completed in November 2003. We expect this reorganization to result in reduced annual expenses of approximately $5.8 million.
On April 20, 2004, we completed a restructuring plan in connection with our acquisition of Syniverse Holdings resulting in the termination of 10 employees. As a result, we incurred $0.3 million in severance related costs in April 2004. The payments related to this restructuring were paid in April 2004. We expect this reorganization to result in reduced annual expenses of approximately $1.1 million. Further restructuring may be necessary in light of current economic conditions.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the six months ended June 30, 2004, our operations generated $35.1 million of cash as compared to $25.2 million for the comparable period in 2003. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net income in the six months ended June 30, 2004. Cash and cash equivalents were $11.2 million at June 30, 2004 as compared to $8.3 million at December 31, 2003. This increase was due primarily to higher net income offset by an increase in working capital. Our working capital increased $5.6 million, from ($1.5) million at December 31, 2003 to $4.1 million at June 30, 2004. This increase in working capital was primarily due to the increase in our accounts receivable driven by the implementation of Number Porting Services offset by an increase in current liabilities. Capital expenditures for property and equipment, including capitalized software costs, increased from $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 to $12.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004.
We have also used off-balance sheet financing in recent years primarily in the form of operating leases for facility space and some equipment leasing and we expect this will continue. Our remaining operating lease payment obligations for 2004 total approximately $2.9 million based on leases in effect at June 30, 2004.

For fiscal 2004, we expect to spend approximately $20.0 million for capital expenditures, primarily for our SS7 network expansion and infrastructure to support our products. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, we spent approximately $12.1 million for capital expenditures, primarily for investment in our SS7 network.
We have significant debt service payment obligations, including interest, in future years. Total cash interest payments related to our revolving credit facility, Term B Loan and our senior notes were $46.2 million in 2003 and $21.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2004. In the year ended December 31, 2003, we made a $37.3 million excess cash flow payment, $19.8 million in scheduled principal payment obligations on this indebtedness, and a $5.0 million prepayment on the Term B Loan. In the six months ended June 30, 2004, we made a $3.0 million excess cash flow payment and $17.1 million in scheduled principal payment obligations on this indebtedness. Our outstanding debt has principal payment schedules requiring payments over a five and seven-year period for the Term B Loan and the senior notes, respectively. The following are the combined principal payment obligations remaining on this indebtedness as of June 30, 2004: $17.2 million in 2004, $44.0 million in 2005 and $135.0 million in 2006. In addition, we are required to prepay amounts outstanding under the senior credit facility in an amount equal to 75% of the excess cash flow, as defined in the senior credit facility, for each fiscal year.
The senior credit facility contains various restrictive covenants, which we amended in September 2003. It prohibits us from prepaying other indebtedness, including the senior notes, and it requires us to maintain specified financial ratios, such as a minimum ratio of pro forma EBITDA to interest expense, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, a maximum ratio of senior debt to pro forma EBITDA and a maximum ratio of total debt to pro forma EBITDA, and satisfy other financial condition tests including limitations on capital expenditures. In addition, the senior credit facility prohibits us from declaring or paying any dividends and prohibits us from making any payments with respect to the senior notes if we fail to perform our obligations under, or fail to meet the conditions of, the senior credit facility or if payment creates a default under the senior credit facility. We are in compliance with all covenants as of June 30, 2004.
On March 11, 2004, we entered into the Second Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) with our lenders (Term B Loan and Revolving Credit) signatory thereto and Lehman Commercial Paper Inc., as administrative agent for the lenders (the “Agent”). The Second Amendment was effective March 11, 2004 and amends our senior credit facility by (i) providing for the incurrence under our senior credit facility of new Term B Loans, which will refinance, in full, all remaining outstanding Term B Loans and (ii) reduces the percentage of Excess Cash Flow which must be applied to prepay the loans to 75%. The Applicable Margin with respect to the Term B Loans is 2.5% for Base Rate Loans and 3.5% for Eurodollar Loans. The cost of the amendment of $0.4 million was recognized in interest expense in the six months ended June 30, 2004.
The indenture governing the senior notes, among other things: (i) restricts our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, issue shares of preferred stock, incur liens, pay dividends or make certain other restricted payments and enter into certain transactions with affiliates; (ii) prohibits certain restrictions on the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or make certain payments to us; and (iii) places restrictions on our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to merge or consolidate with any other person or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets. The indenture related to these notes and the senior credit facility also contains various covenants that limit our discretion in the operation of our businesses.
Our principal source of liquidity will be cash flow generated from operations and borrowings under our senior credit facility. Our principal use of cash will be to meet debt service requirements, finance our capital expenditures, make acquisitions and provide working capital. We expect that cash available from operations combined with the availability of $35.0 million under our revolving line of credit will be sufficient to fund our operations, debt service and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months.
Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our debt and to fund planned capital expenditures will depend on our ability to generate sufficient cash in the future. This, to some extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive and other factors that are beyond our control. We believe that, based upon current levels of operations, we will be able to meet our debt service obligations when due. Significant assumptions underlie this belief, including, among other things, that we will continue to be successful in implementing our business strategy and that there will be no material adverse developments in our business, liquidity or capital requirements. If our future cash flow from operations and other capital resources are insufficient to pay our obligations as they mature or to fund our liquidity needs, we may be forced to reduce or delay our business activities and capital expenditures, sell assets, obtain additional debt or equity capital or restructure or refinance all or a portion of our debt on or before maturity. We cannot assure that we would be able to accomplish any of these alternatives on a timely basis or on satisfactory terms, if at all. In addition, the terms of our existing and future indebtedness, including the senior notes and our senior credit facility, may limit our ability to pursue any of these alternatives.

Effect of Inflation
Inflation generally affects us by increasing our cost of labor, equipment and new materials. We do not believe that inflation has had any material effect on our results of operations during the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.
Critical Accounting Policies
The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes herein. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates on a continual basis, including those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, property and equipment, and intangible assets. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Revenue Recognition
We derive revenues from five primary categories: Network Services, Number Porting Services, Technology Interoperability Services, Call Processing Services and Other Outsourcing Services. The revenue recognition policy for each of these areas is as follows:
• | Network Services primarily generate revenue by charging per-transaction processing fees, circuit fees and port fees. The monthly SS7 connection fee is based on the number of links as well as the number of switches to which a customer signals and is recognized in the period when the service is rendered. The per-transaction fees are based on the number of subscriber events and database queries made through our network and are recognized as revenues at the time the transactions are performed. Syniverse Brience’s software revenues are generated through license fees, maintenance agreements and professional services. License fee revenues consist principally of revenue from the licensing of our software. Revenue is recognized from the software license fees on a straight-line basis over the period beginning with the completion of implementation and customer acceptance and ending with conclusion of the first maintenance period. Maintenance agreements call for us to provide technical support and software enhancements to customers. Revenue on technical support and software enhancement rights is recognized ratably over the term of the support agreement. Professional services include consulting, training and installation services to our customers. Revenue from such services is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the same period as the software license fee. |
• | Number Porting Services primarily generate revenues by charging per-transaction processing fees, monthly fixed fees, and fees for customer implementations. We defer revenues related to customer implementations, and recognize these fees on a straight-line basis over the life of the initial customer agreements. We recognize processing revenues at the time the transactions and services are performed. |
• | Technology Interoperability Services primarily generate revenues by charging per-transaction processing fees. For our wireless roaming, wireline and SMS clearinghouse services, revenues vary based on the number of data/messaging records provided to us by telecommunications carriers for aggregation, translation and distribution among carriers. These revenues are based on the number of wireless roaming subscriber telephone calls and messages that take place on our customers’ networks. We recognize revenues at the time the transactions are performed. |
• | Call Processing Services primarily generate revenue by charging per-transaction processing fees and software licensing fees. The per-transaction fee is based on the number of validation, authorization, and other call processing messages generated by wireless subscribers and is recognized as revenues at the time the transactions are performed. We also provide turnkey software solutions for which we charge customers a software licensing fee. For turnkey software, we recognize revenue when accepted by the customer. |
• | Other Outsourcing Services primarily generate revenue by charging per-subscriber fees. We recognize revenues at the time the service is performed. |
27
Table of Contents
Due to our billing cycles, for which some of our products lag as much as 60 days after services are rendered, we estimate the amounts of unbilled revenue each reporting period. Our estimates are based on recent volume and pricing trends adjusted for material changes in contracted service. Historically, our estimates have correlated well with our actual billed revenue. Unanticipated changes in volume and pricing trends or material changes in contracted service could adversely affect our estimates of unbilled revenue.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to pay their invoices to us in full. We regularly review the adequacy of our accounts receivable allowance after considering the size of the accounts receivable balance, each customer’s expected ability to pay and our collection history with each customer. We review significant invoices that are past due to determine if an allowance is necessary based on the risk category using the factors described above. We also review any general economic conditions in the countries in which our customers operate which could effect their ability to pay us in full. In addition, we maintain a general allowance for doubtful accounts by applying a percentage based on the aging category. Our estimates for allowances for doubtful accounts have tracked well with our actual experience of customers who are unable to pay their invoices in full. If our customers’ financial conditions or the economy in general deteriorates, we may need to increase these allowances for doubtful accounts.
Allowance for Credit Memos
We maintain a general reserve based on our historical credit memo activity. In addition, we establish credit memo reserves resulting from specific customer matters. Changes in this allowance are recognized as adjustments to revenue and are recorded as a direct reduction of accounts receivable. Since our allowances for credit memos are derived in large part from specific customer matters, our estimates have tracked well with our actual credit memo experience. We also maintain a general reserve for credit memos related to billing errors or other similar items. If our billing errors or discrepancies are not resolved satisfactorily, or our customers’ disputes over billing are not resolved satisfactorily, increases to the allowance would be required.
Impairment Losses
We review our long-lived assets, including intangibles with definite lives, for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. We review goodwill at least annually for impairment. We also evaluate the useful life of assets periodically. The review consists of a comparison of the carrying value of the assets with the assets’ expected future undiscounted cash flows without interest costs. Estimates of expected future cash flows represent management’s best estimate based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, asset write-downs may be required. Management will continue to evaluate overall industry and company specific circumstances and conditions as necessary.
Restructuring
We have made estimates of the costs to be incurred as a part of our initial restructuring plan in February 2002 arising from our acquisition of Syniverse, and in the December 2003 purchase accounting for Syniverse Holdings. These amounts were accrued as a part of our purchase accounting adjustments. We will review these estimates until fully paid. We have also made estimates of the costs to be incurred as a part of our August 2002, February 2003, July 2003 and April 2004 restructurings. If our original estimates of the costs of restructuring change, we will need to adjust our reserve amounts.
Loss Contingencies
We are involved in asserted and unasserted claims, which arise in the ordinary course of our business. We routinely evaluate whether a loss is probable, and if so, whether it can be estimated. Accruals for probable losses are recorded in accrued expenses, the allowance for doubtful accounts or the allowance for credit memos if the dispute relates to a customer matter. If our assessment of the probability is inaccurate, we may need to record additional accruals or reduce recorded accruals later. In addition, we may need to adjust our estimates of the probable loss amounts as further information is obtained or as we consider settlements.
Purchase Accounting
We have made estimates of the fair values of the assets acquired as of February 14, 2002 based on appraisals from third

Table of Contents
parties and also based on certain internally generated information. We also made estimates related to the fair values of assets acquired from Syniverse Holdings in December 2003. In addition, we have estimated the economic lives of certain of these assets and these lives were used to calculate depreciation and amortization expense.
Income Taxes
We review our deferred tax assets on a regular basis to evaluate their recoverability based on projections of the turnaround timing of our deferred tax liabilities, projections of future taxable income, and tax planning strategies that we might employ to utilize such assets, including net operating loss carryforwards. Unless it is “more likely than not” that we will recover such assets through the above means, we establish a valuation allowance. As a result, we have concluded that it is appropriate to establish a full valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets net of all deferred tax liabilities except those liabilities associated with goodwill. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate due primarily to changes in the valuation allowance, and to a lesser extent, to state and local taxes.
Forward-Looking Statements
We have made forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in this report. The words “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” “intends,” “estimates” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance and achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
All forward-looking statements in this report are based on information available to us on the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained throughout this report.
ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Market Risk
We are exposed to changes in interest rates on our senior credit facility. Our senior credit facility is variable rate debt. Interest rate changes generally do not affect the market value of such debt but do impact the amount of our interest payments and, therefore, our future earnings and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant. As of June 30, 2004, we had variable rate debt of approximately $196.2 million ($190.2 million net of discount). Holding other variables constant, including levels of indebtedness, a one percentage point increase in interest rates on our variable debt would have had an estimated impact on pre-tax earnings and cash flows for the next year of approximately $2.0 million. Under the terms of the senior credit facility, at least 45% of our funded debt must bear interest that is effectively fixed. As a result, we may from time to time be required to enter into interest rate protection agreements establishing a fixed maximum interest rate with respect to a portion of our total indebtedness.
In March 2003, we entered into an interest rate protection agreement that effectively caps the LIBOR exposure of $100 million of our senior credit facility at 3.0% for a period of two years. As a result of this interest rate protection agreement, approximately 79% of funded debt now bears interest that is effectively fixed as to rate.
Foreign Currency Market Risk
We are exposed to foreign currency risk in certain circumstances. Prior to our opening of the office in the Netherlands in February 2003 and the acquisition of Syniverse Holdings in late December 2003, we conducted all of our business in U.S. dollars. These two items had an immaterial impact on our financial position and results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2004, however, this could change in future periods. At this time, we have not entered into any arrangements to hedge our risks from foreign currency.
In addition, some of our customers are based outside of the United States. In the six months ended June 30, 2004, certain countries (primarily Venezuela) experienced instability causing these customers to have difficulty in exchanging their local currencies for U.S. dollars to satisfy their invoices due to us. As a result, we may be required to explore other techniques to protect against such issues in the future.

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities an Exchange Act of 1934) as required by Rule 13a-15(b). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

OTHER INFORMATION
We are currently a party to various claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business. We believe such claims and legal actions, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. As of June 30, 2004, we have considered all of the claims and disputes of which we are aware and accrued amounts in our analysis of doubtful accounts, allowances for credit memos or probable loss accruals.
The most significant of these claims, in terms of dollars sought, is described below.
SBC Communications, Inc., d/b/a SBC Ameritech, SBC Southwestern Bell and SBC Pacific Bell (collectively, SBC), have asserted claims against us in the total principal sum of $7.3 million, based on alleged overcharging for QRS and CNAM hubbing and transport services we provided. SBC also has refused to pay us an additional $1.9 million related to these same services. We deny the claims and believe they are unfounded and intend to vigorously defend ourselves. On April 15, 2003, we filed suit against SBC Southwestern Bell and SBC Pacific Bell in Hillsborough County Circuit Court seeking monetary damages and a determination that SBC is not entitled to any sum it claims it is owed. Our lawsuit was removed to Federal Court by SBC on the grounds of diversity jurisdiction. We disputed the grounds for removal and moved to remand the action to state court. The Federal Court granted our motion to remand and the action is now pending in state court in Florida. SBC Pacific Bell also filed a motion to dismiss the Florida action on the grounds of a lack of jurisdiction, while SBC Southwestern Bell filed a motion to abate and/or transfer the Florida action based on a lawsuit SBC Southwestern Bell filed against us in Texas state court on October 6, 2003 seeking approximately $2.0 million. We retained Texas counsel to seek a stay of the Texas proceedings pending disposition of the matter in Florida. On April 20, 2004, the Texas Court granted our request and abated the Texas action. SBC Pacific Bell withdrew its motion to dismiss the Florida action. Both SBC Southwestern Bell and SBC Pacific Bell have filed an answer and counterclaim in the Florida action. On June 28, 2004, SBC Ameritech filed a Demand for Arbitration in Chicago seeking $2.1 million it claims it was over billed by Syniverse. We filed a motion to dismiss/abate the Demand based on SBC Ameritech’s failure to engage in mediation prior to Arbitration, as required by the contract under which it alleges it was over billed.
