"We delivered a solid quarter of cash from operations and a comfortable dividend payout ratio," said Bob Currey, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Operationally, we produced another strong access line performance and grew broadband subscribers by 1.3%."
"The quarter also included the completion of two important strategic initiatives. First, we were pleased with the terms of our refinancing that successfully extended $409.1 million of our term loan by three years and our undrawn $50 million revolver by nearly two and half years. Second, we realigned functional responsibilities to bring customer facing employees into a single group and identified approximately $2.5 million in annual expense reductions to be implemented throughout the rest of the year," Currey concluded.

Cash Available to Pay Dividends
For the quarter, cash available to pay dividends, or CAPD, was $21.1 million, and the dividend payout ratio was 55.1%. At June 30, 2011, cash and cash equivalents were $82.0 million, representing an increase of $28.4 million over the prior year. The Company made capital expenditures of $10.7 million compared to $10.9 million in the second quarter of 2010.
Financial Highlights for the Second Quarter Ended June 30, 2011
- Revenues were $92.6 million, compared to $95.7 million in the same period of 2010. Revenue declined by $1.6 million year over year after excluding $0.8 million from the operator service business unit that was divested last year and the $0.7 million access dispute settlement. Declines in local calling services, network access, long distance and subsidies were partially offset by increases in data and internet services.
- Depreciation and amortization was $22.0 million, compared to $21.5 million for the same period in 2010.
- Income from operations was $14.7 million, compared to $17.2 million in the second quarter of 2010. The decrease is mainly due to the restructuring and refinancing expenses totaling $3.0 million in the quarter.
- Interest expense, net was $12.4 million, compared to $13.0 million in the same quarter last year. The improvement is primarily the result of a lower weighted average cost of debt as the result of better rates on interest rate swaps. This was partially offset by the higher interest rate associated with the amend and extend transaction which closed on June 8, 2011.
- Other income, net was $6.3 million, compared to $6.6 million for same period in 2010. Cash distributions from our wireless partnerships were $5.8 million for the current quarter and $6.5 million in the second quarter of 2010.
- Net income attributable to common stockholders was $5.4 million, compared to $7.0 million in the second quarter of 2010. The decline was primarily due to refinancing and restructuring costs of $1.9 million, net of tax. "Adjusted net income applicable to common stockholders" excludes certain items in the manner described in the table provided in this release. On that basis, "adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders" was $7.7 million, compared to $8.0 million in the same quarter of 2010.
- Diluted net income per common share was $0.18, compared to $0.24 in the second quarter of 2010. "Adjusted diluted net income per share" excludes certain items in the manner described in the table provided in this release. On that basis, "adjusted diluted net income per share" for the current quarter was $0.26, compared to $0.27 in the same period the prior year.
- Adjusted EBITDA was $45.9 million, compared to $46.0 million for the same period in 2010.
- Net cash provided from operating activities was $30.1 million, compared to $31.3 million for the second quarter in 2010.
- The total net debt to last twelve month adjusted EBITDA coverage ratio was 4.32 times to one.
Financial Highlights for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2011
- Revenues were $188.1 million, compared to $194.0 million in the same period of 2010. Revenue declined by $3.5 million year over year after excluding the $1.7 million from the operator service business unit that was divested last year and the $0.7 million access dispute settlement. Local calling, long distance, network access and subsidies were all lower due to the loss of access lines. These declines were partially offset by increases in our data and internet revenue.
- Net Income attributable to common stockholders was $12.7 million, compared to $14.0 million in the prior year period. The decline is primarily due to refinancing and restructuring costs of $1.9 million, net of tax.
- Diluted net income per common share was $0.42, compared to $0.47 for the same period in 2010. "Adjusted diluted net income per common share" as described in the table provided in this release was $0.52 versus $0.52 for the six months ended June 30, 2010.
- Adjusted EBITDA increased $0.6 million to $93.7 million, compared to $93.1 million for the same period in 2010.
- Net cash provided from operating activities increased $6.1 million to $61.2 million, compared to $55.1 million for the six month period in 2010.
Financial Guidance
For 2011, the Company is reiterating its full year guidance for capital expenditures and cash interest expenses of $38.0 million to $41.0 million and $45.0 million to $48.0 million, respectively. In addition to the impacts from the refinancing, the Company is increasing its estimates on the benefits of bonus deprecation and, as a result, is lowering its cash tax guidance by $5.0 million to a new range of $9.0 million to $11.0 million from previous guidance of $14.0 million to $16.0 million.
Dividend Payments
On August 1, 2011, the Company's board of directors declared its next quarterly dividend of $0.38738 per common share, which is payable on November 1, 2011 to stockholders of record at the close of business on October 15, 2011.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release, as well as the conference call, includes disclosures regarding "EBITDA", "adjusted EBITDA", "cash available to pay dividends" and the related "dividend payout ratio", "total net debt to last twelve month adjusted EBITDA coverage ratio", adjusted diluted net income per share" and "adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders", all of which are non-GAAP financial measures. Accordingly, they should not be construed as alternatives to net cash from operating or investing activities, cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations, net income or net income per share as defined by GAAP and are not, on their own, necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, not all companies use identical calculations, and the non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. A reconciliation of the differences between these non-GAAP financial measures and the most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP is included in the tables that follow.
Adjusted EBITDA is comprised of EBITDA, adjusted for certain items as permitted or required by the lenders under the credit facility in place at the end of each quarter in the periods presented. The tables that follow include an explanation of how adjusted EBITDA is calculated for each of the periods presented. EBITDA is defined as net earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization on a historical basis. We believe net cash provided by operating activities is the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to EBITDA.
Cash available to pay dividends represents adjusted EBITDA plus cash interest income less (1) cash interest expense, (2) capital expenditures and (3) cash taxes; this calculation differs in certain respects from the similar calculation used in the credit agreement.
We present adjusted EBITDA, cash available to pay dividends and the related dividend payout ratio for several reasons. Management believes adjusted EBITDA, cash available to pay dividends and the dividend payout ratio are useful as a means to evaluate our ability to fund our estimated uses of cash (including interest on our debt) and pay dividends. In addition, we have presented adjusted EBITDA, cash available to pay dividends and the dividend payout ratio to investors in the past because they are frequently used by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry, and management believes presenting them here provides a measure of consistency in our financial reporting. Adjusted EBITDA and cash available to pay dividends, referred to as Available Cash in our credit agreement, are also components of the restrictive covenants and financial ratios contained in the agreements governing our debt that require us to maintain compliance with these covenants and limit certain activities, such as our ability to incur debt and to pay dividends. The definitions in these covenants and ratios are based on adjusted EBITDA and cash available to pay dividends after giving effect to specified charges. In addition, adjusted EBITDA, cash available to pay dividends and the dividend payout ratio provide our board of directors with meaningful information to determine, with other data, assumptions and considerations, our dividend policy and our ability to pay dividends under the restrictive covenants in the agreements governing our debt and to measure our ability to service and repay debt. We present the related "total net debt to last twelve month adjusted EBITDA coverage ratio" principally to put other non-GAAP measures in context and facilitate comparisons by investors, security analysts and others; this ratio differs in certain respects from the similar ratio used in our credit agreement.
These non-GAAP financial measures have certain shortcomings. In particular, adjusted EBITDA does not represent the residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures, since items such as debt repayment and interest payments are not deducted from such measure. Similarly, while we may generate cash available to pay dividends, we are not required to use any such cash to pay dividends, and the payment of any dividends is subject to declaration by our board of directors, compliance with applicable law and the terms of our credit agreement. Because adjusted EBITDA is a component of the dividend payout ratio and the ratio of total net debt to last twelve month adjusted EBITDA, these measures are also subject to the material limitations discussed above. In addition, the ratio of total net debt to last twelve month adjusted EBITDA is subject to the risk that we may not be able to use the cash on the balance sheet to reduce our debt on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Management believes these ratios are useful as a means to evaluate our ability to incur additional indebtedness in the future.
We present the non-GAAP measures adjusted diluted net income per share and adjusted diluted net income attributable to common stockholders because our net income and net income per share are regularly affected by items that occur at irregular intervals or are non-cash items. We believe that disclosing these measures assists investors, securities analysts and other interested parties in evaluating both our company over time and the relative performance of the companies in our industry.
