CONTINUING STRONG SALES PERFORMANCE IN SPRINT MARKETS
USES CASH FLOW TO REDUCE NET DEBT BY $73 MILLION
CARY, N.C., July 27, 2005 — R.H. Donnelley Corporation (NYSE: RHD), a leading yellow pages publisher and directional media company, today reported second quarter 2005 cash flow from operations of $81.8 million, compared to $52.8 million in second quarter 2004.
David C. Swanson, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Solid performance in our Sprint markets reflects the continued rollout of our online products, the broader impact of our business process and strength in southwest Florida, driven in part by the economic impact of rebuilding efforts following the hurricanes last summer. In Illinois, we continue to make tough calls impacting short-term results but necessary to position that business for long-term profitable and sustainable growth.”
Second Quarter – Reported GAAP Results
Second quarter net revenue was $233.0 million compared to $144.6 million in the prior year. Operating expenses, including depreciation and amortization, were $141.9 million compared to $87.3 million in the prior year. The Company did not generate partnership income in the second quarter of 2005 due to the SBC transaction, which was completed in September 2004. Partnership income in the second quarter of 2004 was $34.8 million. Operating income in the quarter was $91.1 million versus $92.1 million in the prior year. Net interest expense in the quarter was $58.3 million compared to $37.5 million in the second quarter of 2004. Net income available to common shareholders for the quarter was $17.1 million or $0.44 per diluted share compared to income available to common shareholders of $27.7 million or $0.65 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2004.

Second quarter 2005 net income, excluding preferred dividends and adjusted to remove the effect of purchase accounting, was $45.3 million, compared to adjusted pro forma net income of $50.4 million for the second quarter of 2004. Adjusted net income per diluted share in the second quarter of 2005 was $1.17, compared to adjusted pro forma net income per diluted share of $1.20 in the prior year.
See the attached schedules for a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release to the most comparable GAAP measures.
Cash Flow and Debt
The Company generated cash flow from operations of $81.8 million in the quarter. Free cash flow (cash flow from operations less $6.5 million of capital expenditures and software investment) for the quarter was $75.3 million. In aggregate, the Company reduced net debt by $73.1 million during the second quarter. As of June 30, 2005, net debt outstanding was $3,216.9 million.
Outlook
The Company affirms all guidance for full year 2005 provided under Item 2.02 in the Current Report on Form 8-K furnished to the SEC on April 27, 2005, as updated by Item 7.01 in the Current Report on Form 8-K furnished to the SEC on June 7, 2005.

Comparative Financial Results
As a result of the SBC and Sprint transactions, and the related financing and associated accounting, management believes that the 2005 and 2004 results reported in accordance with GAAP are not comparable, nor do they reflect the Company’s underlying operational or financial performance. Accordingly management is presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures in addition to results reported in accordance with GAAP in order to better communicate underlying operational and financial performance and to facilitate comparison of adjusted 2005 and adjusted pro forma 2004 results. Adjusted pro forma results discussed in this press release and the attached schedules reflect the combination of RHD with the SBC directory business in Illinois and Northwest Indiana as if the transaction had been consummated at the beginning of 2004, as well as certain other adjustments described below. While management believes that the adjusted pro forma results reasonably resemble operational performance as if the SBC transaction had been consummated at the beginning of the year presented, because of differences between RHD and predecessor accounting policies, management does not believe these pro forma results are strictly comparable.
The primary adjustments related to the SBC transaction are recognition of pre-acquisition deferred revenue and deferred expenses that are not reportable under GAAP due to purchase accounting requirements, but that absent purchase accounting would have been recognized during the periods presented. Adjusted results also exclude deferred directory costs related to sales contracts executed prior to the acquisition for directories that were scheduled to publish subsequent to the acquisition, determined based on the estimated billable value of the published directories less the expected costs to complete the directories plus a normal margin. Similar adjustments related to the Sprint transaction were made in 2004. Adjusted earnings per share assumes conversion at the beginning of the period of the preferred stock that was outstanding at June 30 of the applicable year. The attached Schedules include a reconciliation of all non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measures and a further description of the related adjustments.
For the period ended August 31, 2004, the Company’s investment in DonTech was accounted for under the equity method. The Company did not consolidate DonTech’s revenue and expenses in its consolidated results. Rather it reported the Company’s share of DonTech’s net income and revenue participation income from SBC, both based on DonTech’s calendar sales, collectively as partnership income. On September 1, 2004, RHD acquired SBC’s directory business in Illinois and Northwest Indiana, including SBC’s interest in the DonTech

partnership. As a result, the Company did not generate partnership income after August 31, 2004.
The Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K furnished to the SEC on October 28, 2004 provides additional details regarding the adjustments and non-GAAP financial measures related to the SBC transaction.

R.H. DONNELLEY CORPORATION | | Schedule 10 |
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS AND NON-GAAP MEASURES | | |
(1) | | Publishing revenue is recognized using the deferral and amortization method of accounting. Under this method, when a directory is published, the publication sales value is deferred and amortized into the income statement ratably over the life of the directory, which is typically 12 months. |
|
(2) | | As a result of the SBC transaction and the related financing and associated accounting, management believes that the 2005 and 2004 results reported in accordance with GAAP are not comparable, nor do they reflect the Company’s underlying operational or financial performance. Accordingly, management is presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures in addition to results reported in accordance with GAAP in order to better communicate underlying operational and financial performance and to facilitate comparison of adjusted 2005 performance with adjusted pro forma 2004 results. Adjusted results for 2005 exclude the impact of purchase accounting as well as certain other adjustments. Adjusted pro forma results for 2004 also reflect the combination of RHD with the SBC directory business in Illinois and Northwest Indiana as if the transaction had been consummated at the beginning of the year presented and certain other adjustments. While management believes that the adjusted pro forma results reasonably resemble operational performances as if the SBC transaction had been consummated at the beginning of the period presented, because of differences between RHD and predecessor accounting policies, management does not believe these pro forma results are strictly comparable. The adjusted and adjusted pro forma results assume that the appropriate pro rata portion of the revenues and direct costs of directories acquired from SBC that published prior to the acquisition plus, in the case of 2004 adjusted pro forma results, all September 2004 directories were recognized during the period pursuant to the deferral and amortization method. As a result of purchase accounting, these pre-acquisition revenues and expenses are not included in reported GAAP results. For the periods prior to the actual acquisition date of September 1, 2004, adjusted pro forma interest expense assumes the transaction occurred at the beginning of the periods presented and is based on the incremental debt actually incurred at the time of the acquisition and the interest rate in effect at the time of the acquisition with no assumption for additional debt repayments. For periods after the acquisition date, interest expense is determined in accordance with GAAP results. See Schedules 7 and 8 for details of all adjustments to the reported GAAP results. Additionally, the cost uplift reported under GAAP to eliminate profit on sales contracts completed before the acquisition date for SBC directories not yet published at the acquisition date has also been excluded from adjusted and adjusted pro forma results. |
|
(3) | | As a result of the Sprint transaction and the related financing and associated accounting, management believes that the 2005 and 2004 results reported in accordance with GAAP are not comparable, nor do they reflect the Company’s underlying operational or financial performance. Accordingly, management is presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures in addition to results reported in accordance with GAAP in order to better communicate underlying operational and financial performance and to facilitate comparison of adjusted 2005 performance with adjusted 2004 results. Adjusted results reflect the elimination of purchase accounting and certain other adjustments. The 2005 and 2004 adjusted results assume that the appropriate pro rata portion of the revenue and direct costs of directories acquired from Sprint that published prior to the acquisition plus all January 2003 Sprint directories were recognized during the period pursuant to the deferral and amortization method. As a result of purchase accounting, these pre-acquisition revenues and expenses are not included in reported GAAP results. See Schedules 7 and 8 for details of all adjustments to the reported GAAP results. Additionally, the cost uplift reported under GAAP to eliminate profit on sales contracts completed before the acquisition date for Sprint directories not yet published at the acquisition date has also been removed. |
|
(4) | | The preferred dividend and the loss on repurchase of Preferred Stock is excluded because the adjusted results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and the adjusted pro forma results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 assume the Preferred Stock was completely converted to Common Stock at the beginning of the period and therefore no dividends would have been payable and no loss on the repurchase would have been recorded. |
|
(5) | | On a reported basis, basic EPS are calculated under the “two-class” method that requires earnings available to common shareholders, after deducting preferred dividends, to be allocated between the common and preferred shareholders based on the respective rights to receive dividends. Basic EPS are then calculated by dividing income allocable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted EPS are calculated by dividing income allocable to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding plus potentially dilutive common stock equivalents. In periods that result in a net loss, the net loss is not allocated between common and preferred shareholders since the preferred shareholders do not have a contractual obligation to share in any loss. |

R.H. DONNELLEY CORPORATION | | Schedule 10 |
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS AND NON-GAAP MEASURES (cont’d) | | |
(6) | | On an adjusted and adjusted pro forma basis, basic and diluted EPS are calculated as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average basic and diluted shares outstanding for the period assuming the Preferred Stock was converted to Common Stock at the beginning of the period. |
|
(7) | | Adjustments for the three and six months months ended June 30, 2005 include revenue and expenses for directories acquired from SBC that published prior to the acquisition that would have been recognized during the period absent purchase accounting adjustments required under GAAP. Pro forma adjustments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 include (a) the revenue and expenses for directories acquired from SBC that published prior to the acquisition that would have been recognized during the period absent purchase accounting adjustments required under GAAP, (b) DonTech’s selling and operational expenses prior to the acquisition, (c) certain differences between historical and current accounting policies of RHD and the acquired entities, and (d) the revenue and expenses for directories acquired from Sprint in 2003 that published prior to the acquisition, plus all January 2003 directories that would have been recognized during the period absent purchase accounting adjustments required under GAAP. Additionally, the cost uplift reported under GAAP to eliminate profit on sales contracts completed before the acquisition date for directories not yet published at the acquisition date has also been removed from both periods presented. |
|
(8) | | Represents the additional depreciation and amortization expense related to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired from SBC over their estimated useful lives. |
|
(9) | | Represents the elimination of equity accounting used to account for RHD’s 50% ownership interest in DonTech prior to the SBC transaction. |
|
(10) | | Represents the additional interest expense from the incremental borrowings used to finance the SBC transaction. For the periods prior to the actual acquisition date of September 1, 2004, pro forma interest expense is based on the incremental debt actually incurred at the time of the acquisition and the interest rate in effect at the time of the acquisition with no assumption for additional debt repayments. For periods after the acquisition date, interest expense is determined in accordance with GAAP results. |
|
(11) | | Represents the tax effect of adjustments. |
|
(12) | | Publication sales represent the billable value of advertising sales in directories that published during the period. If events occur during the current period that affect the comparability of sales to the prior year period, such as changes in directory publication dates, then prior year sales are adjusted to conform to the current period presentation and to maintain comparability. |
|
(13) | | EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted pro forma EBITDA represent adjusted earnings and adjusted pro forma earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA, adjusted EBTIDA and adjusted pro forma EBITDA are not measurements of operating performance computed in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for operating income or net income prepared in conformity with GAAP. In addition, EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. |
