FORT WORTH, TX, October 23, 2012 — RadioShack Corporation (NYSE: RSH) reports results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012.

· | Consolidated gross profit of $360 million, or 36% of net sales, compared with $442 million last year. Gross profit dollar performance was negatively impacted by a decline in post-paid units sold versus the prior year. Gross margin rate declined in the third quarter and was negatively impacted by the mix of smart phones at a lower margin rate. |

· | Net loss of $47 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, compared to net income of $0.3 million last year. Excluding one-time items in SG&A and impairment charges, net loss would have been $33 million or $0.33 per diluted share. |

Dorvin D. Lively, interim chief executive officer of RadioShack Corp., said, “Overall, our business performed below expectations. I am most disappointed in our post-paid mobility business where we saw a continued decline in margin performance. However, I am pleased with the progress we are making in improving and driving growth in our high-margin Signature platform, which generated its third consecutive quarter of sales growth and our pre-paid mobility business, which included the launch of the RadioShack branded line of phones. Importantly, we took action to reduce our overall SG&A cost structure during the quarter.
“Over the past three months, we executed our plan to raise new capital and achieved our goal of raising $175 million of new financing. The proceeds of this financing along with existing cash will be used to repay the 2013 Convertible Notes. We believe this strikes the right balance of maintaining liquidity necessary to ensure smooth operations of our company and deleveraging the balance sheet. Our financial position and balance sheet are strong, and our liquidity exceeds $900 million.
“Going forward, we will continue to be focused on stabilizing the profitability of our business. The key to this effort is the gross margin and profitability of our mobility business and more specifically our post-paid business. We have a focused set of initiatives that we believe will accomplish this goal, however, it will take some time to fully address the challenges this business faces.”

The company ended the third quarter with total liquidity of $938 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $546 million and $392 million of available under its $450 million asset-based revolving credit facility that expires in January 2016.
The company has completed its goal of completing $175 million of new financing with a blended interest rate of approximately 9%. This financing will be used to refinance approximately one-half of the $375 million of Convertible Bonds coming due in August of 2013. On August 8th, the company completed a new $50 million term loan with Bank of America/Merrill Lynch as an extension of the existing ABL facility. On September 27th, the company completed a new $100 million term loan with Wells Fargo secured by a second lien on the ABL facility collateral and other specific assets. Subsequent to the end of the third quarter, the company completed $25 million term loan on October 19th as an extension of the existing ABL facility further secured by real estate.
During the quarter, the company repurchased $88 million of the 2013 Convertible Notes due August 1, 2013 for a total purchase price of $85 million.
The company’s total debt stands at $749 million at September 30, 2012. The 2013 Convertible Notes, which originally had a par value of $375 million and currently have a remaining aggregate principal amount of $287 million at September 30, 2012.
