USA Mobility Reports Receipt of Nasdaq Staff Determination Letter
Alexandria, VA (May 19, 2006) — USA Mobility, Inc. (Nasdaq: USMO), a leading provider of wireless messaging services, today announced that it has received a notice from the Nasdaq National Market stating that Nasdaq has not received the Company’s 2006 Form 10-Q for the quarter ending March 31, 2006 as required by Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14).
The Company completed an oral hearing with a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel on May 11, 2006, where it discussed its plans regarding the filing of both its 2005 Form 10-K and its 2006 Form 10-Q for first quarter. The Company informed the Panel that it intends to file its 2005 Form 10-K as soon as it completes its 2005 financial results, and its outside auditor, PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP, has completed the audit of USA Mobility’s 2005 financial statements. The Company will then file its first quarter 2006 Form 10-Q as soon as practicable after filing the 2005 Form 10-K. As the Company has previously announced, it also is restating financial results for 2002, 2003 and 2004, and the interim periods for 2004 and 2005. Those restated results will be filed prior to filing its 2005 Form 10-K. The decision of the Panel is pending.
