NOTES TO CONDENSED UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE AMOUNTS)
1. Business
We are a leading enabler of wireless voice and data services for telecommunications companies worldwide. We were incorporated in Delaware on November 9, 2001 and completed our initial public offering on February 10, 2005. For over 20 years, including our time as part of our former parent company, we have served as one of the wireless industry’s operator-neutral intermediaries, solving the challenges that arise as new technologies, standards and protocols emerge. Our data clearinghouse, network and technology services solve technical and operational challenges for the wireless industry by translating incompatible communication standards and protocols and simplifying operator interconnectivity. Our suite of transaction-based services allows operators to deliver seamless voice, data and next generation services to wireless subscribers, including wireless voice and data roaming, Short Message Service (SMS), Multimedia Messaging Services (MMS), Mobile Instant Messaging (MIM), number portability and wireless value-added services. We currently provide our services to more than 650 operators in over 140 countries.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Syniverse Holdings, Inc. (Syniverse, Inc.) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. 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 considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of a normal, recurring nature. We have evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and/or disclosure through August 7, 2009, which is the date the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2009.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Syniverse Holdings, Inc., all of its wholly owned subsidiaries and a variable interest entity (VIE) for which Syniverse, Inc. is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. References to “the Company”, “us”, or “we” include all of the consolidated companies. Noncontrolling interest is recognized for the portion not owned by us of a consolidated joint venture. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Revenue Recognition
The majority of our revenues are transaction-based charges under long-term contracts, typically averaging three years in duration. From time to time, if a contract expires and we have not previously negotiated a new contract or renewal with the customer, we continue to provide services under the terms of the expired contract on a month-to-month billing schedule as we negotiate new agreements or renewals. Our revenues are primarily the result of the sale of our technology interoperability services, network services, number portability services, call processing services, enterprise solutions and off-network database queries to wireless operators throughout the world. Generally, there is a seasonal increase in wireless roaming telephone usage and corresponding revenues in the high-travel months of our second and third fiscal quarters.
• | Technology Interoperability Servicesprimarily generate revenues by charging per-transaction processing fees. For our wireless roaming clearinghouse, SMS services, MMS services, DataNet services, interstandard roaming solutions and Mobile Data Roaming (MDR) services, revenues vary based on the number or size of data/messaging records provided to us by wireless operators for aggregation, translation and distribution among operators. We recognize revenues at the time the transactions are processed. For our financial clearinghouse and settlement services, revenues vary based on the number of invoices or roaming agreements managed on the customer’s behalf. We recognize revenues at the time the services are performed. Additionally, we provide solutions with multiple product and service elements which may include software and hardware products, as well as installation services, post-contract customer support and training. In those cases, we recognize revenues in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Statement of Position 97-2 (SOP 97-2),Software Revenue Recognition, as amended by SOP 98-9,Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition With Respect to Certain Transactions.Under SOP 97-2, revenue attributable to an element in a customer arrangement is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectability is probable. |
• | Network Servicesprimarily generate revenues by charging per-transaction processing fees. In addition, our customers pay monthly connection fees based on the number of network connections as well as the number of switches with which a customer communicates. The per-transaction fees are based on the number of intelligent network messages and intelligent network database queries made through our network and are recognized as revenues at the time the transactions are processed. |

Table of Contents
• | Number Portability Services primarily generate revenues by charging per-transaction processing fees, monthly fixed fees, and fees for customer implementations. We recognize processing revenues at the time the transactions are processed. We recognize monthly fixed fees as revenues on a monthly basis as the services are performed. We defer revenues and incremental customer-specific costs related to customer implementations and recognize these fees and costs on a straight-line basis over the life of the initial customer agreements. |
• | Call Processing Servicesprimarily generate revenues by charging per-transaction processing fees. The per-transaction fee is based on the number of validation, authorization and other call processing messages generated by wireless subscribers. We recognize processing fee revenues at the time the transactions are processed. |
• | Enterprise Solutionsprimarily generate revenues by charging per-subscriber fees. We recognize these revenues at the time the service is performed. |
• | Off-Network Database Queriesprimarily generate revenues by providing access to database providers. We pass these charges onto our customers, with little or no margin, based upon the charges we receive from the third party intelligent network database providers. We recognize revenues at the time the transactions are processed. |
Net Income Per Common Share
We compute net income per common share in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128,Earnings Per Share(SFAS 128). Basic net income per common share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per common share includes the potential dilution from the exercise of stock options and restricted stock.
On January 1, 2009, we adopted FASB Staff Position Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 03-6-1,Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating Securities (FSP EITF 03-6-1). Under FSP EITF 03-6-1, unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are treated as participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method in accordance with SFAS 128. Certain of our unvested share-based payment awards contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends and dividend equivalents. Upon adoption of FSP EITF 03-6-1, we used the two-class method in the computation of earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and retrospectively adjusted our net income per common share data for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 to conform with the provisions in FSP EITF 03-6-1.
The following table displays the computation of net income per common share using the two-class method:

For the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, options to purchase 2,338,760 and 1,604,178 shares of common stock were outstanding during the periods but were not included in the computation of diluted net income per common share because their effect would be anti-dilutive. No additional securities were outstanding that could potentially dilute basic net income per common share that were not included in the computation of diluted net income per common share.

The balance in accumulated other comprehensive loss as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 was $15,173 and $19,035, respectively.
Joint Venture Interests
We hold a 5% interest in the joint venture mTLD Top Level Domain, Ltd., a joint venture formed to provide mobile data and content domain name registry services and development guidelines. We account for this investment using the cost method of accounting. As of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, our investment was $888 and is included in other assets.
In February 2009, we entered into a joint venture agreement to implement number portability services in India. Our economic interest in the joint venture is 37.5%. We expect to provide India’s telecommunications operators with number portability clearinghouse and centralized database solutions for the next 10 years. We have determined that the joint venture is a variable interest entity (VIE) under FASB Interpretation No. 46(R),Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46(R)). FIN 46(R) provides a framework for identifying VIE’s and determining when a company should include the assets, liabilities, noncontrolling interests and results of operations of a VIE in its consolidated financial statements. FIN 46(R) requires a VIE to be consolidated if a party with an ownership, contractual or other financial interest in the VIE (a variable interest holder) is obligated to absorb a majority of the risk of loss from the VIE’s activities, is entitled to receive a majority of the VIE’s residual returns (if no party absorbs a majority of the VIE’s losses), or both. A variable interest holder that consolidates the VIE is called the primary beneficiary. We have determined that we are the primary beneficiary of the joint venture. As a result, we have consolidated the joint venture in accordance with FIN 46(R).

The off-balance sheet amounts totaled approximately $131,646 and $101,311 as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
We account for derivative financial instruments under FASB Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended (SFAS 133). Under SFAS 133, all derivatives are recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as assets or liabilities and measured at fair value. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the changes in fair value of the derivatives are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently recognized in earnings when the hedged items impact income. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated as hedges and the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges are recorded in current earnings. We have designated our interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge that effectively swaps variable rate interest based on 1-month LIBOR to a fixed rate interest thereby reducing our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. We do not hold or enter into financial instruments for speculative trading purposes. See Note 7 for more information on our interest rate swap.
Foreign Currencies
We have significant operations in subsidiaries in Europe, primarily the United Kingdom and Germany, and the Asia-Pacific region whose functional currency is their local currency. Gains and losses on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies are included in determining net income for the period. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, we recorded foreign currency transaction gains of $847 and $1,134, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, we recorded foreign currency transaction gains of $272 and $215, respectively.
The assets and liabilities of subsidiaries whose functional currency is other than the U.S. Dollar are translated at the period-end rate of exchange. The resulting translation adjustment is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is included in stockholders’ equity. Translation gains and losses on intercompany balances which are deemed to be of a long-term investment nature are also recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. Income statement items are translated at the average rates during the period.

Income Taxes
We provide for federal, state and foreign income taxes currently payable, as well as for those deferred due to timing differences between reporting income and expenses for financial statement purposes versus tax purposes. Federal, state and foreign tax benefits are recorded as a reduction of income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income 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 of a change in income tax rates is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment date. During the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the effective tax rate was 33.5% and 37.1%, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2009, the income tax provision was adjusted for a tax benefit of approximately $1,443 due to an adjustment for an item believed to be non-deductible in prior periods.
We, and our eligible subsidiaries, file a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return. All subsidiaries incorporated outside of the U.S. are consolidated for financial reporting purposes, however, they are not eligible to be included in our consolidated U.S. federal income tax return. Separate provisions for income taxes have been recorded for these entities. We intend to reinvest substantially all of the unremitted earnings of our non-U.S. subsidiaries and postpone their remittance indefinitely. Accordingly, no provision for U.S. income taxes for these non-U.S. subsidiaries was recorded in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 160,Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an Amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No 51 (SFAS 160). SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, changes in a parent’s ownership of a noncontrolling interest, calculation and disclosure of the consolidated net income attributable to the parent and the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its

controlling financial interest and fair value measurement of any retained noncontrolling equity investment. SFAS 160 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted SFAS 160 on January 1, 2009. The adoption of SFAS 160 did not have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (SFAS 141R). SFAS 141R provides revised guidance on how acquirers recognize and measure the consideration transferred, identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, noncontrolling interests, and goodwill acquired in a business combination. SFAS 141R also expands required disclosures surrounding the nature and financial effects of business combinations. SFAS 141R is effective, on a prospective basis, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We adopted SFAS 141R on January 1, 2009. The adoption of SFAS 141R did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements, and the impact that its adoption will have on our consolidated financial statements in future periods will depend on the nature and size of business combinations completed subsequent to the date of adoption.
In May 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 165,Subsequent Events(SFAS 165), which provides guidance to establish general standards of accounting for, and disclosures of, events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. SFAS 165 is effective for interim or fiscal periods ending after June 15, 2009. We adopted SFAS 165 on June 30, 2009. Adoption of SFAS 165 did not have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS 167,Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)(SFAS 167). SFAS 167 eliminates FASB Interpretation 46(R)’s exceptions to consolidating qualifying special-purpose entities, contains new criteria for determining the primary beneficiary, and increases the frequency of required reassessments to determine whether a company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. SFAS 167 also contains a new requirement that any term, transaction, or arrangement that does not have a substantive effect on an entity’s status as a variable interest entity, a company’s power over a variable interest entity, or a company’s obligation to absorb losses or its right to receive benefits of an entity must be disregarded in applying FASB Interpretation 46(R)’s provisions. The elimination of the qualifying special-purpose entity concept and its consolidation exceptions means more entities will be subject to consolidation assessments and reassessments. SFAS 167 is effective as of the beginning of an enterprise’s first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2009, and for interim periods within that first period, with earlier adoption prohibited. We are currently assessing the potential impacts, if any, on our consolidated financial statements.
4. Acquisition of Wireless Solutions International
On May 15, 2009, we acquired Wireless Solutions International (WSI) pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement. Under the Purchase Agreement, we acquired all of the assets of WSI for an aggregate purchase price of $3,572 which was funded by existing cash balances and an award of 200,000 shares of common stock to WSI and five individuals. These five individuals, along with the sole shareholder of WSI at the time of its acquisition, became employees of the Company on the closing date. Each award of shares has been placed into escrow and will be disbursed in 32 months if certain employment conditions are met.
The transaction was accounted for under the acquisition method in accordance with SFAS 141R. The total purchase price of $3,572 was allocated to the assets and liabilities, on a preliminary basis, based upon their estimated fair value as of the date of the acquisition. As a result, the purchase price allocation is not yet finalized and preliminary estimates and assumptions are subject to change. Assets acquired primarily consisted of $389 of cash, $489 of accounts receivables, $700 of software technology, $200 of customer relationships as well as liabilities assumed of $578. Goodwill in the amount of $2,443 was recorded in relation to this acquisition. The common stock award of 200,000 shares was issued from treasury shares and will be accounted for as stock-based compensation due to the employment conditions of the award.
WSI provides a GSM Association (GSMA)-certified Open Connectivity roaming hub and global managed roaming and wireless network solutions that will further enhance Syniverse’s global roaming reach. The acquisition of WSI will extend Syniverse’s relationships with a number of existing customers and introduce new relationships with several operators across the Americas.
5. Goodwill
The changes to the carrying value of goodwill during the six months ended June 30, 2009 were as follows:
Goodwill balance as of December 31, 2008 | $ | 596,662 | |
WSI acquisition | 2,443 | ||
Effect of foreign currency translation | 2,483 | ||
Goodwill balance as of June 30, 2009 | $ | 601,588 | |

6. Stock-Based Compensation
Syniverse has three stock-based compensation plans, the Founders’ Stock Option Plan for non-employee directors, executives and other key employees of Syniverse, Inc., the Directors’ Stock Option Plan, which provides for grants to independent directors, and the 2006 Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan, which provides incentive compensation through grants of incentive or non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), performance awards or any combination of the foregoing.
The impact to our income from operations of recording stock-based compensation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 was as follows:

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
Stock Options
The fair values of stock option grants are amortized as compensation expense, reduced for estimated forfeitures, on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the grants. Compensation expense recognized is shown in the operating activities section of the consolidated statements of cash flows. The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
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. Prior to February 10, 2005, Syniverse, Inc.’s common stock was not traded on public markets. Therefore, a volatility of 0% was used in the Black-Scholes option valuation model for options issued prior to our initial public offering. We use average historical volatility for options issued subsequent to our initial public offering.
Option Plans
On May 16, 2002, our Board of Directors adopted a Founders’ Stock Option Plan for non-employee directors, executives and other key employees of Syniverse Inc. In addition, the Board of Directors adopted a Directors’ Stock Option Plan on August 2, 2002, which provided for grants to independent directors to purchase up to 20,000 shares upon election to the board. The plans had a term of five years and provided for the granting of options to purchase shares of Syniverse, Inc.’s non-voting Class B common stock. As part of our initial public offering, we reclassified the Class B common stock into our common stock and hence all of our options now provide for the purchase of our common stock.
Under the plans, the options have an initial exercise price based on the fair value of each share, as determined by the Board. The per share exercise price of each stock option will not be less than the fair market value of the stock on the date of the grant or, in the case of an equity holder owning more than 10% of the outstanding stock of Syniverse, Inc., the price for incentive stock options is not less than 110% of such fair market value. The Board of Syniverse, Inc. reserved 402,400 shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share for issuance under the Founders’ plan and 160,360 shares under the Directors’ plan.
Both the Founder’s Stock Option Plan and the Directors’ Stock Option Plan have expired and the Board of Syniverse, Inc. no longer grants options under these plans. As of June 30, 2009, there were options to purchase 129,333 shares outstanding under the Founder’s Stock Option Plan and options to purchase 100,240 shares outstanding under the Directors’ Stock Option Plan.
All options issued under the plans are presumed to be nonqualified stock options unless otherwise indicated in the option agreement. Each option has an exercisable life of no more than 10 years from the date of grant for both nonqualified and incentive stock options in the case of grants under the Founders’ Stock Option Plan and under the Directors’ Stock Option Plan. Generally, the options under these plans vest 20% after the first year and 5% per quarter thereafter.
2006 Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan
On May 9, 2006, our Board of Directors adopted the 2006 Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan (the Incentive Plan). The Incentive Plan provides incentive compensation through grants of incentive or non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights (SARs), performance awards, or any combination of the foregoing. The Incentive Plan is designed to allow for the grant of long term incentive awards that conform to the requirements for tax deductible “performance based” compensation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Under the Incentive Plan, 6,000,000 shares of common stock were authorized for issuance, of which 1,000,000 shares may be issued as restricted stock, restricted stock units or performance shares. The number of shares and price per share is determined by the Compensation Committee (the Committee) for those awards granted. However, the exercise price of any option may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of grant and the exercise price of an incentive option awarded to a person who owns stock constituting more than 10% of Syniverse, Inc.’s voting power may not be less than 110% of the fair market value on the date of grant. Those eligible to participate in the Incentive Plan are limited to directors (including non-employee directors), officers (including non-employee officers) and employees of Syniverse, Inc. and its subsidiaries selected by the Committee, including participants located outside the United States. Determinations made by the Committee under the Incentive Plan need not be uniform and may be made selectively among eligible individuals under the Incentive Plan.
At the 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on May 8, 2009, the shareholders of Syniverse, Inc. approved the Syniverse Holdings, Inc. Amended and Restated 2006 Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan (the Amended and Restated 2006 Plan). The Amended and Restated 2006 Plan includes 3,000,000 additional shares of the Company’s common stock all of which may be issued as restricted stock and that may be granted thereunder resulting in a total of 9,000,000 shares reserved and available for issuance pursuant to awards granted (or to be granted) under the Amended and Restated 2006 Plan.

Table of Contents
As of June 30, 2009, there were 2,109,187 options outstanding, vesting 33 1/3% per year, which had been granted to certain directors, executive officers and other employees. As of June 30, 2009, there were 537,280 unvested restricted shares outstanding, vesting 20% per year, which had been granted to certain directors, executive officers and other employees.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
On May 9, 2006, our Board of Directors adopted the 2006 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Purchase Plan”). All employees, including Directors who are employees and all employees of any subsidiary, are eligible to participate in any one or more of the offerings to purchase common stock under the Purchase Plan. Eligible employees may purchase a limited number of shares of Syniverse, Inc.’s common stock at 85% of the market value during a series of offering periods. The purchase price is set based on the price on the New York Stock Exchange at the close of either the first or the last trading day of the offering period, whichever is lower. The fair value of shares issued under the Purchase Plan is estimated on the commencement date of each offering period using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
As of June 30, 2009, approximately 295,823 shares were reserved for future issuance. As of June 30, 2009, there were 142 enrollments under the Purchase Plan.
7. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
On October 6, 2008, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge $100,000 of our U.S.-denominated term loan under our senior credit facility to manage interest rate risk. The hedge effectively swaps variable rate interest based on 1-month LIBOR to a fixed rate interest thereby reducing our exposure to interest rate fluctuations for the next two years. This agreement involves the receipt of floating rate amounts in exchange for fixed rate interest payments over the life of the agreement without an exchange of the underlying principal amount. The effective date of the swap is October 31, 2008 and the maturity date is October 31, 2010. The fixed rate is 5.26% based on our 2.76% swap rate plus our 2.50% applicable margin.
We have designated the interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge in accordance with SFAS 133. The counterparty to this interest rate swap agreement is a major financial institution, and we do not anticipate nonperformance by this counterparty. Changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap that are effective are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). There was no ineffective portion of the swap for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. As of June 30, 2009, the fair value of our interest rate swap (based on Level 2 inputs) is $2,441, which is recorded in other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the interest rate swap at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 was $2,925 and $2,441, respectively. For the six month period ended June 30, 2009, we recognized other comprehensive gain of $341, net of tax. During the six months ended June 30, 2009, $1,170 was reclassified into earnings as a result of payments on the variable interest associated with the floating debt. Over the next twelve months, we expect to reclassify $2,069 of losses on our interest rate swap from accumulated other comprehensive loss to earnings related to similar payments of variable interest associated with the floating debt.
Net Investment Hedge of a Foreign Operation
We have designated our Euro-denominated portion of our Term Note B as a net investment hedge of certain foreign operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, ($422) related to the revaluation of the debt from Euros to US dollars was included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss.
8. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157,Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157) requires disclosure about how fair value is determined for assets and liabilities and establishes a hierarchy for which these assets and liabilities must be grouped, based on significant levels of inputs. The three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies is as follows:
Level 1—Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.
Level 2—Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
As of June 30, 2009, we held certain items that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis including an interest rate swap agreement. Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are reflected in the financial statements at their carrying value, which approximate their fair value due to their short maturity. The following item is measured at fair value on a recurring basis subject to the disclosure requirements of SFAS 157 as of June 30, 2009:
Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using | ||||||||||||||
June 30, 2009 | Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) | Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) | Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) | |||||||||||
Liabilities | ||||||||||||||
Interest rate swap | $ | (2,441 | ) | $ | — | $ | (2,441 | ) | $ | — | ||||
14
Table of Contents
We have elected to use the income approach to value our interest rate swap, using observable Level 2 market expectations at measurement date and standard valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount assuming that participants are motivated, but not compelled to transact.
The fair value of the 7 3/4% senior subordinated notes due 2013 is based upon quoted market prices in inactive markets for similar instruments (Level 2 as defined under SFAS No. 157). The fair value of the Term Note B is based upon quoted market prices in active markets for similar instruments (Level 2 as defined under SFAS No. 157).
The carrying amounts and fair values of our long-term debt as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 are as follows:
June 30, 2009 | December 31, 2008 | |||||||||||
Carrying Value | Fair Value | Carrying Value | Fair Value | |||||||||
Term Note B | $ | 336,664 | $ | 313,098 | $ | 338,813 | $ | 304,932 | ||||
7 3/4% senior subordinated notes, due 2013 | $ | 175,000 | $ | 164,500 | $ | 175,000 | $ | 89,250 |
9. Commitments and Contingencies
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.
10. Debt
On August 9, 2007, we entered into a $464,000 amended and restated credit agreement (the senior credit facility) with Lehman Brothers Inc. and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. as joint lead arrangers and joint book-running managers, Lehman Commercial Paper Inc., as administrative agent, Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as syndication agent, Bear Stearns Corporate Lending Inc. and LaSalle Bank National Association, as co-documentation agents and the lenders from time to time parties thereto. The obligations under the senior credit facility are unconditionally guaranteed by Syniverse, Inc. and all material U.S. domestic subsidiaries of Syniverse Technologies, Inc. (the Guarantors) and are secured by a security interest in substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of Syniverse Technologies, Inc. and the Guarantors. The obligations under the senior credit facility are also secured by a pledge of the capital stock of Syniverse Technologies, Inc. and its direct and indirect U.S. subsidiaries.
On May 4, 2009, we entered into an Amendment, Waiver, Resignation and Appointment Agreement, or the amendment, with Lehman Commercial Paper Inc., Bank of America, N.A., and certain of the other parties to the senior credit facility. Pursuant to the amendment, Lehman Commercial Paper has resigned as administrative agent and Bank of America has been appointed as successor administrative agent under the senior credit facility. The amendment also provides for other modifications of the senior credit facility including the termination of Lehman Commercial Paper’s commitments under our undrawn revolving credit lines of $28,200 and provides for Bank of America to extend commitments under our undrawn revolving credit lines of $10,000. This modification reduces our revolving credit lines from $62,000 to $43,800.
11. Supplemental Consolidating Financial Information
Syniverse Technologies, Inc.’s (Syniverse) payment obligations under the senior notes are guaranteed by Syniverse Holdings, Inc. (Syniverse, Inc.) and all domestic subsidiaries of Syniverse Holdings, Inc. including Syniverse Brience (collectively, the Guarantors). The results of Syniverse Technologies BV, Syniverse Holdings Limited, Perfect Profits International Limited and Syniverse Technologies Limited Luxembourg S.à r.l. are included as non-guarantors. Such guarantees are full, unconditional and joint and several. The following supplemental financial information sets forth, on an unconsolidated basis, balance sheets, statements of income, and statements of cash flows information for Syniverse Holdings, Inc., the Guarantors and the non-guarantor subsidiaries. The supplemental financial information reflects the investment of Syniverse Holdings, Inc. and Syniverse Technologies, Inc. using the equity method of accounting.

Business
We are a leading enabler of wireless voice and data services for telecommunications companies worldwide. For over 20 years, we have served as one of the wireless industry’s operator-neutral intermediaries, solving the challenges that arise as new technologies, standards and protocols emerge. Our data clearinghouse, network and technology services solve technical and operational challenges for the wireless industry by translating incompatible communication standards and protocols and simplifying operator interconnectivity. Our suite of transaction-based services allows operators to deliver seamless voice, data and next generation services to wireless subscribers, including wireless voice and data roaming, Short Message Service (SMS), Multimedia Messaging Services (MMS) and Mobile Instant Messaging (MIM), number portability and wireless value-added services.
Demand for our services is driven primarily by wireless voice and data traffic, subscriber roaming activity, SMS and MMS messaging, number porting and next generation IP applications. The global wireless telecommunications industry is expected to grow due to continued subscriber growth, increased usage and deployment of new services. In addition, subscriber adoption of new wireless technologies and services can also drive demand for our services due to the resulting increase in interoperability complexities. The global wireless industry relies on an extensive and complex set of communication standards, technical protocols, network interfaces and systems that must successfully communicate with one another in order to provide voice and data services to subscribers in their local markets and when roaming. The proliferation of these standards has resulted in technological incompatibilities, which are increasingly difficult to manage as new wireless technologies and services are introduced and deployed. We believe that as wireless usage expands and complexity continues to increase, the demand for our services will grow.
We have developed a broad set of innovative interoperability solutions in response to the evolving needs of our customers. Through our integrated suite of services, we enable operators to provide their customers with enhanced wireless services including:
• | national and international wireless voice and data roaming; |
• | mobile data services, including SMS, MMS and MIM, across incompatible standards and protocols; |
• | intelligent network services such as wireless number portability and advanced IP service offerings; and |
• | prepaid applications and value-added roaming services. |
Our service platforms also enable operators to rapidly and cost-effectively deploy next-generation wireless services including enhanced wireless data, wireless Voice-over-Internet Protocol, or VoIP, and wireless value-added services.
We provide our services to more than 650 operators in over 140 countries. We serve most of the largest global wireless operators including AT&T, Sprint/Nextel, T-Mobile, Verizon Wireless, America Moviles, Telefonica, China Telecom, KDDI, TeliaSonera, Vodafone, VimpelCom and SK Telecom. We believe that maintaining strong relationships with our customers is one of our core competencies and that maintaining these relationships is critical to our success.

Executive Overview
Second Quarter Financial Highlights
For the three months ended June 30, 2009, total revenue decreased $14.1 million, or 11.1%, to $113.5 million from $127.6 million for the same period in 2008. Net income decreased $3.9 million, or 19%, to $16.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $20.4 million for the same period in 2008. Diluted earnings per share was $0.24 and $0.30 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
Technology Interoperability services revenues decreased $13.9 million, or 17.3%, to $66.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $80.2 million for the same period in 2008. The revenue decrease was driven by decreases in data clearinghouse services primarily resulting from lower prices related to the renewal of the Verizon contract in September 2008 and the loss of MDR transactions between Alltel and Sprint resulting from the Alltel/Sprint insourcing initiative. In addition, our technology turnkey solutions offering has experienced lower sales due to delayed capital spending by operators in the Asia Pacific region. Number Portability services revenues increased $1.4 million, or 21%, to $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $6.4 million for the same period in 2008 due to increased porting volumes. Network services revenues decreased $0.8 million, or 2.6%, to $30.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $31.6 million for the same period in 2008. Revenues from Call Processing services, Enterprise Solutions and Off-Network Database Queries decreased a total of $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008.
Business Developments
India Number Portability Services
In February 2009, we entered into a joint venture agreement to implement number portability services in India. Syniverse was awarded the license for Zone 1, which includes the service areas of Delhi, Mumbai and nine others. We expect to provide India’s telecommunications operators with number portability clearinghouse and centralized database solutions for the next 10 years. The service offering is dependent on completing the processing platform and database, operator readiness and regulatory confirmation of the implementation timeline.
Acquisition of Wireless Solutions International
On May 15, 2009, we acquired Wireless Solutions International (WSI). The acquisition was funded by a cash payment from our existing cash balances and common stock. The acquisition of this GSM Association (GSMA)-certified roaming hub provider will further enhance Syniverse’s global roaming reach. The acquisition of WSI will extend Syniverse’s relationships with a number of existing customers and introduce new relationships with several operators across the Americas.
2008 Events Affecting 2009
During 2008, there were several developments that we expect will impact our growth rates in 2009. These developments include the Verizon acquisition of Alltel and the Alltel/Sprint insourcing initiative. Each of these developments is described below.
Verizon Acquisition of Alltel
During the second quarter of 2008, Verizon Wireless (Verizon) announced that it would acquire Alltel Corporation (Alltel). Verizon completed its acquisition of Alltel in January 2009. The impact of the combination of these two customers on us ranges across a variety of services, and affects revenues we receive not only from Verizon and Alltel, but from other roaming partners as well. The revenue impact is dependent on Verizon’s integration schedule and our revenue and net income expectations for 2009 include very
26
Table of Contents
specific integration assumptions. These assumptions concern roaming traffic between Verizon and Alltel and other roaming traffic where Verizon has coverage but where Alltel currently uses a different roaming partner. The assumptions are based on the current and best information available to us and we can provide no assurance that the actual impact of this transaction will not be more or less than what is reflected in our 2009 revenue and net income expectations.
Alltel/Sprint Insourcing Initiative
In order to manage the expense associated with the significant volume growth in mobile data, Alltel and Sprint directly connected their IP backbone networks in January 2009. Thus, they no longer use Syniverse as a third party intermediary to manage the connectivity and exchange of billing records between their mobile data roaming platforms. Our revenue and net income expectations for 2009 include the impact of this insourcing initiative from the January 2009 effective date.
Revenues
Most of our revenues are transaction-based charges under long-term contracts, typically with terms averaging three years in duration. From time to time, if a contract expires and we have not previously negotiated a new contract or renewal with the customer, we continue to provide services on a month to month billing schedule under the terms of the expired contract as we negotiate new agreements or renewals. Most of the services and solutions we offer to our customers are based on applications, network connectivity and technology platforms owned and operated by us. We also generate revenues through the sale of software licenses, hardware and professional services. We generate our revenues through the sale of our technology interoperability services, network services, number portability services, call processing services, enterprise solutions and off-network database queries to telecommunications operators throughout the world. Generally, there is a slight increase in wireless roaming telephone usage and corresponding revenues in the high-travel months of our second and third fiscal quarters.
Future increases or decreases in revenues are dependent on many factors, such as industry subscriber growth, subscriber habits, and volume and pricing trends, with few of these factors known in advance. From time to time, specific events such as customer contract renewals at different terms, a customer contract termination, a customer’s decision to change technologies or to provide solutions in-house, or a consolidation of operators will be known to us and then we can estimate their impact on our revenues.
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 data processing costs, network costs, facilities costs, hardware costs, licensing fees, 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 includes research and development expenses, a portion of the expenses associated with our facilities, business development expenses, and expenses for executive, finance, legal, human resources and other administrative departments and professional service fees relating to these functions. Our research and development expenses, 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 relate primarily to our property and equipment including our SS7 network, infrastructure facilities related to information management, capitalized software and other intangible assets recorded in purchase accounting. |

Comparison of the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2009 and 2008
Revenues
Total revenues decreased $14.1 million to $113.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $127.6 million for the same period in 2008. Total revenues decreased $20.9 million to $222.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from $243.3 million for the same period in 2008. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to decreases in Technology Interoperability Services with lesser decline in Network Services, Call Processing Services and Enterprise Solutions offset in part by an increase in Number Portability Services and Off-Network Database Queries.
Technology Interoperability Services revenues decreased $13.9 million to $66.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $80.2 million for the same period in 2008. Technology Interoperability Services revenues decreased $19.6 million to $129.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from $148.9 million for the same period in 2008. The revenue decrease was driven by decreases in data clearinghouse services primarily resulting from lower prices related to the renewal of the Verizon contract in September 2008 and the loss of MDR transactions between Alltel and Sprint resulting from the Alltel/Sprint insourcing initiative. In addition, our technology turnkey solutions offering has experienced lower sales due to delayed capital spending by operators in the Asia Pacific region.
Network Services revenues decreased $0.8 million to $30.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $31.6 million for the same period in 2008. Network Services revenues decreased $0.6 million to $60.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from $61.4 million for the same period in 2008 primarily due to decreases in our intelligent network database services partially offset by growth in our SS7 network services.

Number Portability Services revenues increased $1.4 million to $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $6.4 million for the same period in 2008. Number Portability Services revenues increased $1.6 million to $15.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from $13.4 million for the same period in 2008. The increase in revenues was primarily due to organic volume growth and our Singapore number portability services.
Call Processing Services revenues decreased $0.9 million to $6.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $7.3 million for the same period in 2008. Call Processing Services decreased $2.1 million to $13.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from $15.7 million for the same period in 2008. The decrease in revenues was due to continued declines in our legacy fraud-related services and Signaling Solutions due to the September 2008 Verizon renewal and expected network migrations, which was partially offset by higher call processing volumes. We expect this decline to continue for our legacy fraud-related services.
Enterprise Solutions Services revenues decreased $0.2 million to $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $0.6 million for the same period in 2008. Enterprise Solutions Services revenues decreased $0.6 million to $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from $1.4 million for the same period in 2008. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to a lower number of subscribers on our enterprise wireless data management platform. We expect this decline to continue.
Off-Network Database Queries revenues increased $0.3 million to $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $1.4 million for the same period in 2008. Off-Network Database Queries revenues increased $0.4 million to $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from $2.5 million for the same period in 2008. The increase in revenues was primarily driven by increased volumes. We pass these off-network database query fees onto our customers, with little or no margin, based upon the charges we receive from the third-party database providers. We expect these services to decline in future periods.
Expenses
Cost of operationsdecreased $0.7 million to $40.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $41.6 million for the same period in 2008. Cost of operations increased $1.3 million to $80.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from $79.6 million for the same period in 2008. The increase was primarily due to increased network and data processing costs to support customer growth. As a percentage of revenue, cost of operations increased from 32.6% and 32.7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, to 36.0% and 36.3% for the same periods in 2009 as a result of the fixed nature of our cost of operations.
Sales and marketing expenses decreased $3.4 million to $8.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $12.2 million for the same period in 2008. Sales and marketing expenses decreased $5.5 million to $17.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from $23.0 million for the same period in 2008. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales incentives, performance-based compensation and discretionary expenses.
General and administrativeexpenses decreased $2.9 million to $17.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $19.9 million for the same period in 2008. General and administrative expenses decreased $4.0 million to $34.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from $38.0 million for the same period in 2008. The decrease was primarily due to lower performance-based compensation, professional services and discretionary expenses.
Depreciation and amortizationexpenses increased $0.2 million to $14.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $13.8 million for the same period in 2008. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $0.2 million to $27.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from $27.4 million for the same period in 2008.
Other
Interest income decreased $0.4 million to $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $0.5 million for the same period in 2008. Interest income decreased $0.7 million to $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from $0.9 million for the same period in 2008. The decrease was due to lower yields earned on outstanding cash balances.
Interest expense decreased $1.9 million to $7.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $9.4 million for the same period in 2008. Interest expense decreased $4.3 million to $14.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from $19.1 million for the same period in 2008. The decrease was primarily due to lower interest rates on our senior credit facility.
Other, net increased $1.1 million to $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $(0.3) million for the same period in 2008. Other, net increased $1.3 million to $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from $(0.2) million for the same period in 2008. The increase was primarily due to foreign currency transaction gains on foreign denominated cash balances and intercompany accounts as a result of our global presence.
Provision for income taxesdecreased $1.0 million to $9.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $10.6 million for the same period in 2008. Provision for income taxes decreased $4.7 million to $16.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from $21.1 million for the same period in 2008. During the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the effective tax rate

Table of Contents
was 36.9% and 34.3%, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the effective tax rate was 33.5% and 37.1%, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2009, the income tax provision was adjusted for a tax benefit of approximately $1.4 million due to an adjustment for an item believed to be non-deductible in prior periods. Excluding the effect of the adjustment, the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2009 is 36.2%. The reduction in our effective tax rate is attributed to the mix of income from foreign tax jurisdictions with lower tax rates and tax planning initiatives.

Net increase in cash | $ | 22,241 | $ | 43,689 | ||||
Net cash provided by operating activities was $50.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to $64.1 million for the same period in 2008. The decrease was primarily related to lower net income adjusted for non-cash items and timing of working capital items including estimated tax payments. Cash and cash equivalents were $187.8 million at June 30, 2009 as compared to $165.6 million at December 31, 2008. Our working capital increased $46.7 million to $242.9 million at June 30, 2009 from $196.2 million at December 31, 2008, primarily due to increased cash balances, higher prepaid balances and lower accrued payroll and related benefits.
Net cash used in investing activities was $24.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, which includes $20.9 million for capital expenditures and $3.2 million for the acquisition of WSI. Net cash used in investing activities was $21.2 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, which includes $20.4 million for capital expenditures and $0.8 million for the acquisition of BSG Wireless. Capital expenditures for both periods primarily related to investment in our internal infrastructure, including network infrastructure to support customer growth, and capitalized software.
Net cash used in financing activities was $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, which includes $1.7 million of principal payments on our senior credit facility offset by the $1.0 million in capital contributions received from joint venture partners to acquire a non-controlling interest. Net cash used in financing activities was $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008, which includes $1.8 million of principal payments on our senior credit facility offset by $1.4 million for the issuance of stock.
On October 6, 2008, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge $100.0 million of our U.S.-denominated term loan under our senior credit facility. The hedge effectively swaps variable rate interest based on 1-month LIBOR to a fixed rate interest thereby reducing our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. The effective date of the swap is October 31, 2008 and the maturity date is October 31, 2010. The fixed rate is 5.26% based on our 2.76% swap rate plus our 2.50% applicable margin.
Our principal sources of liquidity are cash flows generated from operations and borrowings under our senior credit facility. Our principal uses of cash are to meet debt service requirements, finance our capital expenditures, make acquisitions and provide working capital. We expect that cash on hand, cash available from operations, and the availability of cash under our revolving line of credit will be sufficient to fund our operations, debt service and capital expenditures for the foreseeable future.
Debt and Credit Facilities
Amended and Restated Senior Credit Facility
On August 9, 2007, we entered into a $464.0 million amended and restated credit agreement, the senior credit facility, with Lehman Brothers Inc. and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. as joint lead arrangers and joint book-running managers, Lehman Commercial Paper Inc., as administrative agent, Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as syndication agent, Bear Stearns Corporate Lending Inc. and LaSalle Bank National Association, as co-documentation agents and the lenders from time to time parties thereto. The obligations under the senior credit facility are unconditionally guaranteed by Syniverse, Inc. and all material U.S. domestic subsidiaries of Syniverse Technologies, Inc. (the “Guarantors”) and are secured by a security interest in substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of Syniverse Technologies, Inc. and the Guarantors. The obligations under the senior credit facility are also secured by a pledge of the capital stock of Syniverse Technologies, Inc. and its direct and indirect U.S. subsidiaries.

Table of Contents
The senior credit facility provides for aggregate borrowings of $464.0 million as follows:
• | a term loan of $112.0 million in aggregate principal amount; |
• | a delayed draw term loan of $160.0 million in aggregate principal; |
• | a Euro-denominated delayed draw term loan facility of the equivalent of $130.0 million; |
• | a revolving credit line of $42.0 million; and |
• | a Euro-denominated revolving credit line of the equivalent of $20.0 million. |
On December 19, 2007, the delayed draw term loans of $290.0 million (delayed draw term loan of $160.0 million and Euro-denominated delayed draw term loan of the equivalent of $130.0 million) were used to fund the acquisition of the BSG Wireless including the repayment of existing debt and to pay related transaction fees and expenses. The delayed draw term loans were subject to a commitment fee of 1.25% per annum on undrawn amounts.
The applicable margin for the base rate term loan and the base rate revolving loans is 1.50%. U.S. dollar denominated borrowings bear interest at the applicable margin plus either a base rate or, at our option, a LIBOR rate. The applicable margin for the Eurodollar term loan, Euro-denominated term loan and Eurodollar revolving loans is 2.50%. Euro-denominated borrowings under the senior credit facility bear interest at the applicable margin plus a EURIBOR rate. The term loan facilities require regularly scheduled quarterly payments of principal and interest, and the entire amount of the term loan facilities will mature on August 9, 2014. The full amount borrowed under the revolving credit line will mature on August 9, 2013. In the event we fail to refinance our 7 3/4% senior subordinated notes by February 15, 2013, then the maturity date of our term loan facilities and revolving credit line will be accelerated to February 15, 2013.
On May 4, 2009, we entered into an Amendment, Waiver, Resignation and Appointment Agreement, or the amendment, with Lehman Commercial Paper Inc., Bank of America, N.A., and certain of the other parties to the senior credit facility. Pursuant to the amendment, Lehman Commercial Paper has resigned as administrative agent and Bank of America has been appointed as successor administrative agent under the senior credit facility. The amendment also provides for other modifications of the senior credit facility including the termination of Lehman Commercial Paper’s commitments under our undrawn revolving credit lines of $28.2 million and provides for Bank of America to extend commitments under our undrawn revolving credit lines of $10.0 million. This modification reduces our revolving credit lines from $62.0 million to $43.8 million.
As of June 30, 2009, we had an aggregate face amount of $336.7 million of outstanding indebtedness under our senior credit facility representing $212.1 million in U.S. dollar denominated term loans, $124.6 million in Euro-denominated term loans, $29.6 million available under the revolving credit facility and $14.2 million available under the Euro-denominated revolving credit line. As of June 30, 2009, the applicable interest rate was 2.81% on the term loan based on the LIBOR option and 3.28% on the Euro-denominated delayed term loan based on the EURIBOR option.
The senior credit facility contains covenants that will limit our ability and that of our Guarantors to, among other things, incur or guarantee additional indebtedness, create liens, pay dividends on or repurchase stock, make certain types of investments, restrict dividends or other payments from our subsidiaries, enter into transactions with affiliates and sell assets or merge with other companies. The senior credit facility also requires compliance with financial covenants, including a maximum ratio of total indebtedness to Consolidated EBITDA. As of June 30, 2009, we believe we are in compliance with all of our covenants contained in the senior credit facility.
7 3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2013
On August 24, 2005, we completed a private offering of $175.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 7 3/4% senior subordinated notes due 2013. Interest on the notes accrues at the rate of 7 3/4% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15, commencing on February 15, 2006.
The indenture governing our 7 3/4% senior subordinated notes due 2013 contains certain covenants that among other things, limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock, pay dividends, make other restricted payments and investments, create liens, incur restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or other payments to them, sell assets, merge or consolidate with other entities, and enter into transactions with affiliates. As of June 30, 2009, we believe we are in compliance with all of the covenants contained in the indenture governing our senior subordinated notes.
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 three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
In applying the accounting policies that we use to prepare our consolidated financial statements, we necessarily make accounting estimates that affect our reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Some of these accounting estimates require us to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time we make the accounting estimates. We base these assumptions and the resulting estimates on historical information and other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, and we evaluate these assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis; however, in many instances we reasonably could have used different accounting estimates, and in other instances changes in our accounting estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, with the result in each case being a material change in the financial statement presentation of our financial condition or results of operations. We refer to accounting estimates of this type as “critical accounting estimates.”
Accounting estimates necessarily require subjective determinations about future events and conditions. During the six months ended June 30, 2009, we have not adopted any new critical accounting policies, have not changed any critical accounting policies and have not changed the application of any critical accounting policies from the year ended December 31, 2008. You should read the Critical Accounting Estimates in Item 7 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Item 1A – Risk Factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 and our summary of significant accounting policies in Note 2 of our Notes to Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160,Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an Amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No 51 (SFAS 160). SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, changes in a parent’s ownership of a noncontrolling interest, calculation and disclosure of the consolidated net income attributable to the parent and the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest and fair value measurement of any retained noncontrolling equity investment. SFAS 160 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted SFAS 160 on January 1, 2009. The adoption of SFAS 160 did not have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (SFAS 141R). SFAS 141R provides revised guidance on how acquirers recognize and measure the consideration transferred, identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, noncontrolling interests, and goodwill acquired in a business combination. SFAS 141R also expands required disclosures surrounding the nature and financial effects of business combinations. SFAS 141R is effective, on a prospective basis, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We adopted SFAS 141R on January 1, 2009. The adoption of SFAS 141R did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements, and the impact that its adoption will have on our consolidated financial statements in future periods will depend on the nature and size of business combinations completed subsequent to the date of adoption.
In May 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 165,Subsequent Events(SFAS 165), which provides guidance to establish general standards of accounting for, and disclosures of, events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. SFAS 165 is effective for interim or fiscal periods ending after June 15, 2009. We adopted SFAS 165 on June 30, 2009. Adoption of SFAS 165 did not have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS 167,Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)(“SFAS 167”). SFAS 167 eliminates FASB Interpretation 46(R)’s exceptions to consolidating qualifying special-purpose entities, contains new criteria for determining the primary beneficiary, and increases the frequency of required reassessments to determine whether a company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. SFAS 167 also contains a new requirement that any term, transaction, or arrangement that does not have a substantive effect on an entity’s status as a variable interest entity, a company’s power over a variable interest entity, or a company’s obligation to absorb losses or its right to receive benefits of an entity must be disregarded in applying FASB Interpretation 46(R)’s provisions. The elimination of the qualifying special-purpose entity concept and its consolidation exceptions means more entities will be subject to consolidation assessments and reassessments. SFAS 167 is effective as of the beginning of an enterprise’s first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2009, and for interim periods within that first period, with earlier adoption prohibited. We are currently assessing the potential impacts, if any, on its consolidated financial statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We provide financial settlement services to wireless operators to support the payment of roaming related charges to their roaming network partners. In accordance with our contract with the customer, funds are held by us as an agent on behalf of our customers to settle their roaming related charges to other operators. These funds and the corresponding liability are not reflected in our consolidated balance sheet. The off-balance sheet amounts totaled approximately $131.6 million and $101.3 million as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.
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 to continue these practices. We do not use any other type of joint venture or special purpose entities that would create off-balance sheet financing. We believe that our decision to lease our office space is similar to that used by many other companies of our size and does not have a material impact to our financial statements.

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 therefore 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, 2009 and December 31, 2008, we had $336.7 million and $338.8 million, respectively, of variable rate debt outstanding on our senior credit facility. 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 $3.4 million. Under the terms of the senior credit facility at least 25% 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.
On October 6, 2008, we entered into an agreement to hedge $100.0 million of our U.S. dollar-denominated term loan under our senior credit facility. The hedge effectively swaps variable rate interest based on 1-month LIBOR to a fixed rate interest thereby reducing our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. The effective date of the swap is October 31, 2008 and the maturity date is October 31, 2010. The fixed rate is 5.26% based on our 2.76% swap rate plus our 2.50% applicable margin.
Foreign Currency Market Risk
Although the majority of our operations are conducted in U.S. dollars, our significant foreign operations are conducted in Euros and Great Britain Pounds. Our exposure to these currencies is the result of our acquisition of BSG Wireless in December 2007. On a less significant basis, we conduct operations in the various currencies of the Asia-Pacific region, Canada and Latin America, several of which are directly tied to the movement in the U.S. dollar. Consequently, a portion of our revenues and expenses may be affected by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We are also affected by fluctuations in exchange rates on assets and liabilities related to our foreign operations. We have not hedged our translation risk on foreign currency exposure through the use of derivative instruments.
A 10% change in average foreign currency rates against the U.S. dollar during the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the average foreign currency exchange rates during the three months would have increased or decreased our revenues and net income by approximately $3.0 million and $1.8 million, respectively.
ITEM 4: | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In connection with the preparation of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2009. Based on this evaluation, our management, including our CEO and CFO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2009.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1: | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
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, results of operations or cash flows.
ITEM 1A: | RISK FACTORS |
Our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows can be impacted by a number of factors, any one of which could cause our actual results to vary materially from recent results or from our anticipated future results. For a discussion identifying additional risk factors and important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated, see the discussion in “Item 1A – Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 and disclosed elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. There has been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
ITEM 2: | UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS |
(a) | On May 15, 2009, in conjunction with our acquisition of all the assets of Wireless Solutions International, we issued 200,000 shares of common stock as a portion of consideration for the transaction. The common stock was issued to the sole shareholder of Wireless Solutions International and five individuals. These five individuals, along with the sole shareholder of Wireless Solutions International, became employees of Syniverse, Inc. on the closing date of the acquisition. The shares were placed in escrow and will be disbursed in 32 months from the closing date if certain employment conditions are met. The shares were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Act), in reliance on Section 4(2) of the Act as the shares were issued only to the six individuals and did not involve a public offering. |
