Swanson, R.H. Donnelley Chief Executive Officer. "We look forward to making significant progress with respect to integration activities related to Dex Media in 2006. We will also continue initiatives to drive operational improvement in our core business, increase leadership in online search and generate superior value for our shareowners, advertisers and consumers." George Burnett, R.H. Donnelley Chairman and former Chief Executive Officer of Dex Media, said, "Dex Media consistently delivered on its commitments in 2005. It was a year of operational momentum for us, in which we successfully innovated both in print and online. We are pleased to move into a new era with R.H. Donnelley from a position of strength and increased momentum." Full Year 2005 - Reported GAAP Results R.H. Donnelley RHD's full year 2005 net revenue was $956.6 million compared to $603.1 million in the prior year.

Net income for the full year was $46.8 million or $0.31 per diluted share compared to net loss of $50.8 million or $0.39 per diluted share in the prior year. Cash Flow and Debt R.H. Donnelley For the full year, RHD generated cash flow from operations of $392.1 million.

Donnelley Combined publication sales for RHD for full year 2005 were $1,026.9 million, up 1.3 percent from $1,013.7 million in the prior year. Performance was primarily driven by strong results in the Sprint markets. This was partially offset by lower publication sales in the AT&T markets (acquired in 2004) driven by the reconstruction efforts in that business. RHD's publication sales represent the total billable value of advertising in directories that were published in the period. RHD's adjusted net revenue during the full year was $1,041.6 million compared to adjusted pro forma net revenue of $1,033.9 million in 2004. Adjusted operating expenses, including depreciation and amortization, were $531.5 million for full year 2005 compared to adjusted pro forma operating expenses of $502.6 million for the prior year. Adjusted operating income for full year 2005 was $510.1 million compared to adjusted pro forma operating income for full year 2004 of $531.3 million. Adjusted EBITDA during the full year was $595.2 million compared to adjusted pro forma EBITDA of $616.8 million in the prior year. Full year 2005 adjusted net income, excluding preferred dividends and adjusted to remove the effect of purchase accounting, was $149.8 million compared to adjusted pro forma net income of $193.3 million in the prior year. Adjusted net income per diluted share in the full year was $3.87 compared to adjusted pro forma net income per diluted share of $4.59 in full year 2004. See the attached schedules for a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release to the most comparable GAAP measures. Dex Media Publication sales for Dex Media during full year 2005 were $1,728.0 million, up 2.2 percent from the prior year. Dex publication sales represent the total billable value of advertising in directories that were published during the period, together with all other revenue, including Internet and direct marketing products, sold during the period. Dex Media's revenue in the full year was $1,658.4 million compared to adjusted revenue of $1,649.7 million in full year 2004. Operating expenses, including depreciation and amortization, were $1,134.4 million in the full year compared to adjusted operating expenses of $1,190.8 million for full year 2004. Operating income for full year 2005 was $524.0 million compared to adjusted operating income for the prior year of $458.9 million. EBITDA adjusted to exclude the effects of purchase accounting and certain non-recurring items for the full year was $936.5 million compared to $930.9 million in the prior year. Full year 2005 net income was $46.8 million compared to net loss of $50.8 million for the prior year. Net income per diluted share in the full year was $0.31 compared to net loss per diluted share of $0.39 in full year 2004. See the attached schedules for a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release to the most comparable GAAP measures. Fourth Quarter 2005 - Both GAAP and Including Adjustments and Non-GAAP Measures R.H. Donnelley RHD's combined publication sales for the fourth quarter 2005 were $293.5 million, up 0.3 percent from $292.8 million the prior period. RHD's publication sales represent the total billable value of advertising in directories that were published in the period. Net revenue in the fourth quarter of 2005 was $261.1 million. Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2005 was $142.7 million, while cash flow from operations in the quarter was $77.7 million. GAAP net income for the fourth quarter 2005 was $12.6 million. Dex Media Dex Media's publication sales in the fourth quarter of 2005 were $411.0 million, up 2.0 percent in the quarter compared to $403.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2004. Dex publication sales represent the total billable value of advertising in directories that were published during the period, together with all other revenue, including Internet and direct marketing products, sold during the period. Dex's fourth quarter 2005 revenue was $414.0 million. Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2005 was $230.4 million, while cash flow from operations in the quarter was $154.7 million. Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2005 was $2.7 million. See the attached schedules for a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release to the most comparable GAAP measures for both companies. Outlook R.H. Donnelley is providing guidance on a consolidated basis for 2006 adjusted to exclude the effects of purchase accounting and assuming the Dex transaction closed on January 1. Pro forma advertising sales are expected to be approximately $2.7 billion in full year 2006. Advertising sales represent the total billable value of print and online products in the period in which the billing commences. Adjusted pro forma EBITDA margin excluding FAS 123 expense is expected to be approximately 53 to 54 percent for the full year, reflecting the first year of combined operations following the acquisition of Dex Media and the costs necessary to achieve synergies. RHD expects to generate more than $700 million of free cash flow after $75 million of capital expenditures during 2006. Weighted average fully diluted shares outstanding during 2006 are expected to be approximately 73 million. Details and related reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measures appear in Schedule 9d in this press release. Comparative Financial Results As a result of the AT&T and Sprint transactions by R.H. Donnelley as well as the Dex West acquisition by Dex Media and the related financing and associated accounting, management believes that R.H. Donnelley's and Dex Media's 2005 and 2004 results reported in accordance with GAAP are not comparable, nor do they reflect the underlying operational or financial performance of R.H. Donnelley or Dex Media, respectively. 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 for each of R.H. Donnelley and Dex Media, and to facilitate comparison of adjusted 2005 and adjusted pro forma 2004 results for each of R.H. Donnelley and Dex Media. Adjusted pro forma results for Donnelley discussed in this press release and the attached schedules reflect the combination of RHD with the AT&T directory business in Illinois and Northwest Indiana as if the transaction had been consummated at the beginning of 2004 and certain other adjustments described below, including adjustments to exclude the effects of purchase accounting related to the AT&T transaction. Adjusted 2004 results for Dex Media discussed in this press release and the attached schedules exclude the effects of purchase accounting related to the Dex West acquisition by Dex Media. Adjusted 2004 and 2005 results for Dex Media exclude certain non-recurring items. While management believes that the adjusted and adjusted pro forma results reasonably resemble operational performance as if the AT&T transaction had been consummated at the beginning of the respective years and as if purchase accounting had not impacted reported results for either Donnelley or Dex Media, because of differences between RHD, Dex Media and their respective predecessor accounting policies, management does not believe these adjusted and adjusted pro forma results are strictly comparable. The primary adjustments related to the AT&T transaction and the Dex West 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 for Donnelley 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 with respect to Donnelley's adjusted results. R.H. Donnelley's adjusted earnings per share assumes conversion at the beginning of the period of the preferred stock that was outstanding at December 31 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 both Donnelley and Dex Media results. While purchase accounting related to the Dex Media merger will impact R.H. Donnelley's 2006 reported results, it did not affect 2005 results for either company.

DONNELLEY CORPORATION Schedule 18 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 AT&T transaction (formerly known as SBC) 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 AT&T 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 AT&T 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 AT&T 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 AT&T 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 in 2004. 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 reflect the elimination of purchase accounting and certain other adjustments. The 2004 adjusted pro forma 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, accretion of Preferred Stock to fair value, and the loss on repurchase of Preferred Stock is excluded because the adjusted results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2005 and the adjusted pro forma results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2004 assume the remaining Preferred Stock was completely converted to Common Stock at the beginning of the period and therefore no dividends would have been payable and no accretion of Preferred Stock to fair value or 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, the accretion of Preferred Stock to fair value and the loss on repurchase of Preferred Stock, 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. Note: These schedules are preliminary and subject to change pending the Company's filing of its Form 10-K. R.H. DONNELLEY CORPORATION Schedule 18(cont'd) NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED 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 months and year ended December 31, 2005 include revenue and expenses for directories acquired from AT&T that published prior to such acquisition that would have been recognized during the period absent purchase accounting adjustments required under GAAP. Pro forma adjustments for the three months and year ended December 31, 2004 include (a) the revenue and expenses for directories acquired from AT&T 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 AT&T 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 AT&T transaction. (10) Represents the additional interest expense from the incremental borrowings used to finance the AT&T 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) RHD publication sales represent the total billable value of advertising sold in directories that published during the period. Beginning in 2006, RHD will begin using the term "advertising sales," which is substantially the same as publication sales. If events occur during the current period that affect the comparability of publication sales to the prior year period, such as changes in directory publication dates, then prior year publication 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. (14) Advertising sales represent the total billable value of print and online products in the period in which the billing commences. 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. Note: These schedules are preliminary and subject to change pending the Company's filing of its Form 10-K. Schedule 18 (cont'd) Dex Media, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements Of Operations and Non-GAAP Measures A) In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, Dex Media also discloses certain non-GAAP measures. Dex Media discloses EBITDA, EBITDA as adjusted, free cash flow, and publication sales, all of which are non-GAAP measures. Dex Media also makes certain adjustments to revenue and cost of revenue to exclude the effects of purchase accounting relating to Dex Media's acquisition of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Dex Media West LLC in September 2003. Management believes that presenting adjusted GAAP results and non-GAAP measures is important for investors to better understand Dex Media's underlying operational and financial performance, to facilitate comparison of results between periods, to enable investors to better assess and understand Dex Media's ability to meet debt service, make capital expenditures and meet its working capital requirements. An analysis of Dex Media's results of operations as adjusted and the other non-GAAP measures presented in this press release should only be made in conjunction with data presented in accordance with GAAP. B) The most directly comparable GAAP measure to EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, is net income (loss). This schedule presents a reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, for the three months and twelve months ended December 31, 2005, compared to the same periods in 2004 (in millions). This schedule also reflects adjustments to revenue and cost of revenue to exclude the effects of purchase accounting. Using R.H. Donnelley's accounting policies and assumptions, Dex Media's full year 2005 adjusted EBITDA and fourth quarter 2005 adjusted EBITDA would have been different. C) The most directly comparable GAAP measure to free cash flow is cash provided by operating activities. This schedule presents a reconciliation of cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow and for the three months and twelve months ended December 31, 2005, compared to the same periods in 2004 (in millions). Note: These schedules are preliminary and subject to change pending the Company's filing of its Form 10-K. Schedule 18 (cont'd) Dex Media, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements Of Operations and Non-GAAP Measures D) The most directly comparable GAAP measure to diluted earnings per share - adjusted is diluted earnings per share - GAAP. This schedule presents a reconciliation of diluted earnings per share - GAAP to diluted earnings per share - adjusted for the three months and twelve months ended December 31, 2005, compared to the same periods in 2004 (in millions). E) Dex Media utilizes the deferral and amortization method of accounting, under which revenue and expenses are recognized over the lives of the directories published by the company. Dex publication sales, which is a non-GAAP financial measure for the company, represents the total billable value of advertising in directories that were published during the period, together with all other revenue, including Internet and direct marketing products, sold during the period. If events occur during the current period that affect the comparability of publication sales to the prior year period, such as changes in directory publication dates, then prior year publication sales are adjusted to conform to the current period presentation and to maintain comparability. The most comparable GAAP financial measure to publication sales is revenue. Management believes that a comparison of publication sales from one period to another provides a meaningful indication of recent sales trends, taking into consideration the diversity of directories published and other products sold in each quarter that are not fully reflected by deferral and amortization accounting. Although publication sales is subsequently recognized as revenue over the lives of the respective directories, publication sales may not be directly indicative of the amount ultimately recognized as revenue under deferral and amortization, due to adjustments that may occur in subsequent reporting periods. Therefore, publication sales is not necessarily indicative of Dex Media's future quarterly or annual recognized revenue. Dex Media utilizes publication sales to set bonus targets and to monitor, assess and reward sales performance. This schedule presents a reconciliation of publication sales to total recognized revenue for the three months and twelve months ended December 31, 2005, compared to the same periods in 2004 (in millions). Note: These schedules are preliminary and subject to change pending the Company's filing of its Form 10-K. CONTACT: R.H. Donnelley Corporation Investor Relations: James M.
