-FY 2014 Adjusted EBITDA of $132 Million

-Fourth Quarter Revenues Up 5% over Prior Year; Western Markets up 9%

-Launched Apple iPad in January

WAYNESBORO, Va. - February 26, 2015 - NTELOS Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ: NTLS) (the “Company”) announced today operating and financial results for its fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2014. These results supplement the preliminary information released on January 20, 2015.

On December 2, 2014, nTelos announced a strategic refocus of its business operations on its Western Markets (West Virginia and western Virginia), where it has experienced strong operating performance, has a favorable competitive position for its branded retail offering and benefits operationally and financially from its Strategic Network Alliance ("SNA") with Sprint. nTelos is currently in the process of winding down its operations in its Eastern Markets, which it expects to complete by November 15, 2015.

“During the fourth quarter, nTelos simultaneously took actions to enhance our competitive position in the Western Markets and to begin an orderly wind down of operations in our Eastern Markets,” said Michael A. Huber, Chairman of the Board of NTELOS Holdings Corp. “The successful closing of the first installment of our towers sale demonstrates that we are executing on our strategic objectives and adding liquidity to our already solid balance sheet. The Board is confident that nTelos can thrive in its Western Markets and in the process enhance value for shareholders.”

Rod Dir, Chief Executive Officer, added: “nTelos continues to demonstrate why we remain ‘the best value in wireless’ by offering more options for our customers and a more rewarding network experience. Our expanded 4G LTE coverage is providing subscribers with faster speeds across our comprehensive device lineup, which now includes the Apple iPad. We continue to work diligently to attract new customers looking for exceptional savings, simplicity and service.”

Non-GAAP Measures

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to NTELOS Holdings Corp. before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, accretion of asset retirement obligations, transaction related costs, restructuring and asset impairment charges, gain/loss on sale or disposal of assets and derivatives, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, other expenses/income, equity-based compensation charges, separation charges, secondary offering costs, and adjustments for impact of recognizing a portion of the billed SNA contract revenues on a straight line basis.

ARPA, or average monthly revenue per account, is computed by dividing service revenues per period by the average number of accounts during that period. Please see the footnotes in the exhibits for a complete definition of this measure.

Adjusted EBITDA is a key metric used by investors to determine if the Company is generating sufficient cash flows to continue to produce shareholder value and provide liquidity for future growth. ARPA provides management with useful information concerning the appeal of the Company’s postpay rate plans and service offerings and the Company’s performance in attracting and retaining high value customers.

Adjusted EBITDA and ARPA are non-GAAP financial performance measures. They should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to measures determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Please refer to the exhibits and materials posted on the Company’s website for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial performance measures to the most comparable measures reported in accordance with GAAP and for a discussion of the presentation, comparability and use of such financial performance measures.

1	During the second quarter, the Company terminated approximately 2,100 postpay subscribers that repeatedly exceeded their terms and conditions relating to permitted usage. Additionally, the Company changed its business rules related to reporting of long-term, non-revenue prepay subscribers. This change resulted in approximately 8,200 prepay subscribers being excluded from our ending subscriber base. The impact of these Company-initiated terminations and change in business rules is reflected in our ending subscriber totals as of June 30, 2014, and is not reflected in our disconnections, net additions and churn calculations for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, and the twelve months ended December 31, 2014.
2	End of Period
3	Effective 5/1/14, SNA Revenues include the impact of recognizing the fixed fee element of SNA contract revenues on a straightline basis, which is a reduction of billed revenue, and the non-cash consideration attributable to spectrum leases. We have recognized an equal charge for spectrum lease expense within cost of sales and services.

The Company closely monitors the effects of new rate plans and service offerings on ARPA in order to determine their effectiveness. ARPA provides management useful information concerning the appeal of NTELOS rate plans and service offerings and the Company’s performance in attracting and retaining high-value customers.

1			Proforma Western Markets is defined as Holdings less Eastern Markets.
2			During the second quarter, the Company terminated approximately 1,400 postpay subscribers that repeatedly exceeded their terms and conditions relating to permitted usage.
			Additionally, the Company changed its business rules related to reporting of long-term, non-revenue prepay subscribers. This change resulted in approximately 4,700 prepay subscribers being excluded from our ending subscriber base. The impact of these Company-initiated terminations and change in business rules is reflected in our ending subscriber totals as of June 30, 2014, and is not reflected in our disconnections, net additions and churn calculations for the periods ended June 30, 2014.
3			End of Period.
4			Effective 5/1/14, SNA Revenues include the impact of recognizing the fixed fee element of SNA contract revenues on a straight-line basis, which is a reduction of billed revenue, and the non-cash consideration attributable to spectrum leases. We have recognized an equal charge for spectrum lease expense within cost of sales and services.
