TELEFONICA GROUP Consolidated Results Telefonica Group organizational restructuring by Regional Business Units: Telefonica Espan, Telefonica Latinoamerica and Telefonica Europe, in accordance with the new regional and integrated management model, defines that the companies legal structure is not relevant for the presentation of the Telefonica Group financial information. In this sense, operating results of each regional business units are presented independently of their legal structure. In line with this new structure, Telefo Group has incorporated in Telefo Espan and Telefo Latinoame regional businesses units all the information corresponding to fixed, cellular, cable and Internet businesses. Likewise, Telefo O2 Europe includes O2 Group results and Telefo O2 Czech Republic results. In the caption Other companies and Eliminations Content and Media Business is included, where the results of Telefonica S.A. direct stake has been integrated in the share capital of Endemol Entertainment Holding, N.V. For the presentation of the segment reporting, revenue and expenses arising from the use of the trademark and that do not affect the Group's consolidated results have been eliminated from the operating results of each Group segment. Telefonica Group's 2007 results continue to show the differential profile of the Company, underpinned by its strong execution of operations and its ability to consistently meet its financial targets. The solid growth achieved in 2007 highlights the Group's potential for organic growth, the value of its geographic and business line diversification, an efficient cost structure and the synergies tapped through the integrated management of the Company. In a context of a strong expansion of the customer base (+12.5%), revenues (+6.7%), OIBDA (+19.3%), OI (+42.1%) and net profit (+42.9%) all rose sharply compared with 2006, while operating cash flow (OIBDA-CapEx) increased by 33.0% year-on-year to 14,797 million euros (+9.1% ex-capital gains from the Airwave and Endemol disposals). Once again, the Company's outstanding performance in 2007 has enabled the Telefonica Group to meet all its financial targets1 for the year. In accordance with the criteria applied for setting its targets for 2007: • Revenue growth stood at 9.8% vs. the forecast range of 8%-10%; • Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) grew 12.8%, in the upper part of the forecast range of 10%-13%. • Operating income increased by 27.6%, above the given range of 19% to 23%. • CapEx totalled 8,087 million euros, lower than the forecast investment of 8,100 million euros. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 Base 2006 reported numbers include eleven months of O2 Group (consolidated since February 2006), eight months of Telefonica Telecom (consolidated since May 2006), six months of Iberbanda (consolidated since July 2006), three months of start-up losses in Slovakia, and exclude Endemol and Airwave results. 2007 guidance assumes constant exchange rates as of 2006 and excludes changes in consolidation (TVA). In terms of guidance calculation, OIBDA and OI exclude other exceptional revenues/expenses not foreseeable in 2007. Personnel Restructuring and Real Estate Programs are included as operating revenues/ expenses, with the exception of the ones decided after the guidance communication at the beginning of the year. For comparison purposes the equivalent other exceptional revenues/expenses registered in 2006 are also deducted from reported figures. CapEx excludes investments related to Real Estate Efficiency Plan. Commercial activity picked up in the fourth quarter due to successful customer acquisition and retention campaigns, boosting total accesses by 12.5% to 228.5 million from 2006. Telefonica Espan has 46.4 million accesses, an increase of 5.0% on 2006, underpinned by growth in wireless and broadband customers together with the contention of fixed lines losses, at-0.3% year-on-year, the smallest decline since 2001. Growth in the number of total accesses at Telefonica Latinoamerica picked up the pace (+16.9% year-on-year to 134.1 million) thanks to the strong growth in broadband, a robust wireless market, which registered a new record for net adds in the fourth quarter (7.3 million customers), and an expanding Pay TV customer base, which increases close to 75% compared with 2006. Telefonica Europa reported growth of 8.7% in its customer base to 42 million, driven by the strong performance of its wireless business, especially in the contract segment. By access type, growth in mobile accesses at the Telefonica Group accelerated to 16.6% year-on-year to 169.2 million. In Latin America, it is worth highlighting the quarterly net adds registered in Brazil (2.2 million, close to seven-fold increase on the same period in 2006), and in Mexico (almost 1.5 million, up 32% year-on-year). In Spain, net adds in the quarter totalled 406,837 thousand, exceeding the figures seen in the last three quarters and boosting the customer base to over 22.8 million, up 6.4% compared with 2006. In Europe, the customer base increased by 8.6% to 38.3 million, with net adds of 1.0 million customers in the quarter. Retail Internet broadband accesses at the Telefonica Group surged 28.9% year-on-year to over 10.2 million at the end of December. Take-up for ADSL, TV and voice bundles remained strong, making a significant contribution to developing the broadband market and forging customer loyalty. In Spain, retail broadband accesses surpassed 4.5 million (up +22.1% year-on-year), in Latin America, 5.0 million (+33.2%) and in Europe, 670,000 (+48.3%). Net adds in the quarter stood at 227,500 in Spain, while this figure amounted to 332,300 and 97,500 in Latin America and Europe respectively. Pay TV accesses at the end of the quarter exceeded 1.7 million, 64.3% more than in 2006, with operations up and running in Spain, the Czech Republic, Peru, Chile, Colombia and Brazil. Thanks to the sound increase in the Group's customer base, revenues in 2007 totalled 56,441 million euros, a year-on-year increase of 6.7%. Negative exchange rate effects detracted 1.2 percentage points from top-line growth (-1.0 percentage points to September, -1.4 percentage points to June, -2.6 percentage points to March), while changes in the consolidation perimeter contributed 0.5 percentage points to this growth (vs. +1.9 percentage points to September, +4.5 percentage points to June, +9.8 percentage points to March). Organic revenue growth2 was 7.4%, with Telefonica Latinoamerica (4.4 percentage points) and Telefonica Espan (1.6 percentage points) making the largest contributions. By business, mobile services and broadband were the main revenue drivers underpinning organic growth, up 11.1% and 22.6% year-on-year respectively. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 Assuming constant exchange rates and including the consolidation of the O2 Group, Telefonica Telecom and Iberbanda in January-December 2006. It excludes the consolidation of Telefonica O2 Slovakia in January-December 2007, the consolidation of TVA in October-December 2007, the consolidation of Airwave in April-December 2006 and the consolidation of Endemol in July-December 2006. In absolute terms, Telefonica Espan contributed most to Telefonica Group revenues, accounting for 36.6% of the total. Telefonica Espan reported revenues of 20,683 million in 2007, up 4.7% from 2006. Revenues at Telefonica Espan's wireline business amounted to 12,401 million euros in the year, a year-on-year increase of 3.7%. This was largely underpinned by strong Internet and broadband service revenues and, to a lesser extent, data and IT services, not forgetting the noteworthy performance of voice and traditional access revenues. Telefonica Espan's wireless business reported full-year revenues of 9,693 million euros, up 5.4% year-on-year, driven by strong service revenues (+4.5%), which in turn were buoyed by customer revenues (+8.0%). Telefonica Latinoamerica (35.6% of consolidated revenues) recorded revenues of 20,078 million euros in 2007, 11.0% more than in 2006 (14.5% in constant euros). In organic terms3, revenues grew by 13.0%. In constant currency terms, Mexico and Venezuela contribute most to topline growth with respective contributions of 3.2 and 3.1 percentage points. Brazil continues to make the largest contribution to Telefonica Latinoamerica's revenues (38.2%) followed by Venezuela (11.9%) and Argentina (11.3%). TASA remains the best performing fixed operator in the region, reporting 9.9% growth in local currency thanks to higher broadband revenues (+45.7% in local currency) and a robust traditional business (+5.4% in local currency). In Brazil, Vivo (revenues up 16.5% in local currency) should be highlighted, where results reflect the impact of the management measures implemented in 2006 and 2007 to achieve profitable growth and improved customer satisfaction. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3 Assuming constant exchange rates and including the consolidation of Telefonica Telecom in 2006. It excludes the consolidation of TVA in October-December 2007. Telefonica Europe contributed 14,458 million euros (25.6%) to the Telefonica Group's total revenues in 2007. Telefonica Europe's 2006 revenues included the O2 Group for February-December 2006, as well as Telefonica Deutschland and Telefonica O2 Czech Republic for January-December 2006. In the UK, the continued growth of the customer base and ARPU boosted revenues, in comparable terms, by 9.5% in local currency vs. 2006 despite the strong competitive pressure in the market. At Telefonica O2 Czech Republic, 2007 revenues rose 2.9% year-on-year boosted by the wireless business (+4.4% in local currency) and a stable fixed business. At O2 Germany, in comparable terms, revenues fell by 1.9% vs. 2006 as traffic growth failed to offset the major price cuts made over the year in a highly competitive market. In 2007, Telefonica Group's operating expenses grew 7.0% vs. 2006 to 37,431 million euros. These higher costs are mainly due to changes in the consolidation perimeter, higher commercial efforts carried out in Latin America and Europe and the impact of operational and personnel reorganization plans announced by the Company that will boost efficiency in the coming years. Supplies rose 7.7% year-on-year in 2007 to 17,907 million euros (up 9.0% excluding the exchange rate effect). Stripping out also changes to the consolidation perimeter, supplies would have risen 9.2%, mainly due to higher interconnection expenses at Telefonica Latinoamerica and O2 UK. Personnel expenses rose 3.6% year-on-year to 7,893 million (+4.6% in constant euros). The average number of employees in the period was 244,052, 16,915 more than the previous year, due to net hires at the Atento Group and the inclusion of new companies in the consolidation perimeter. Excluding the Atento Group workforce, the average number of employees at the Telefonica Group would have been virtually flat year-on-year at 127,102 employees. Personnel reorganization expenses at Telefonica Group stood at 1,199 million euros in 2007 (1,084 million euros in 2006): • Telefonica Espan: 667 million euros, including the 2003-2007 redundancy programme and a new personnel reorganization programme for 2008 started in 2007; • Telefonica Latin America: 318 million euros booked for personnel reorganization programmes carried out in different companies of the Group corresponding to plans implemented in 2007 and in force throughout 2008; • Telefonica Europe: 158 million euros relating to personnel reorganization programmes implemented in Germany, the UK and Ireland. External service expenses (9,991 million euros) grew by 8.2% year-on-year (+9.5% in constant currency), partly due to the cessation of the roaming agreement in Germany with T-Mobile in the fourth quarter. In organic terms, this increase was mainly due to increased commercial activity at Telefonica Latinoamerica and in Telefonica Espan's wireline business. Also, gains on sale of fixed assets in 2007 totalled 2,766 million euros due to the recognition in the second quarter of 1,296 million euros in capital gains from the sale of Airwave and in the third quarter of 1,368 million euros in capital gains from the disposal of Endemol. Meanwhile a capital loss of 45 million euros was recorded in the second quarter in connection with the disposal of the Group's 6.9% stake in CANTV. At the end of 2007, operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) stood at 22,825 million euros, up 19.3% from 2006. Stripping out gains from the sale of Airwave and Endemol, OIBDA growth would have been 5.4% year-on-year. Organic OIBDA growth4 would have stood at 20.8% (+6.8% stripping out both capital gains). The OIBDA margin in 2007 was 40.4% (35.7% excluding the Airwave and Endemol capital gains vs. 36.2% the previous year). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4 Assuming constant exchange rates and including the consolidation of the O2 Group, Telefonica Telecom and Iberbanda in January-December 2006. It excludes the consolidation of Telefonica O2 Slovakia in January-December 2007, the consolidation of TVA in October-December 2007, the consolidation of Airwave in April-December 2006 and the consolidation of Endemol in July-December 2006. Telefonica Espan (46.9% of consolidated OIBDA) reported OIBDA of 9,448 million euros in 2007, up 9.3% from 2006. The OIBDA margin stood at 45.7%, 1.9 percentage points higher than one year ago. OIBDA at Telefonica Latinoamerica (7,121 million euros) represented 35.3% of consolidated OIBDA for 20075, a year-on-year increase of 8.4%. In organic terms6 OIBDA growth was 10.6%. In constant currency terms, OIBDA growth in Latin America was 11.5%. By country, Venezuela contributed most to OIBDA growth (5.2 percentage points), followed by Mexico (3.1 percentage points). In absolute terms, Brazil was the largest contributor to Telefonica Latinoamerica's OIBDA, accounting for 43.1% of the total, followed by Venezuela (14.9%) and Argentina (11.1%). Telefonica Latinoamerica's OIBDA margin in 2007 amounted to 35.5%, 0.9 percentage points lower than in 2006, affected by the personnel reorganization provisions outlined above. Excluding these provisions, the margin would have been 37.1% (0.3 percentage points higher than the one recorded in 2006). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5 2007 OIBDA for Telefonica Group does not consider the capital gains of 1,296 million euros and 1,368 million euros from the disposals of Airwave and Endemol respectively. 6 Assuming constant exchange rates and including the consolidation of the O2 Group, Telefonica Telecom and Iberbanda in January-December 2006. It excludes the consolidation of Telefonica O2 Slovakia in January-December 2007, the consolidation of TVA in October-December 2007, the consolidation of Airwave in April-December 2006 and the consolidation of Endemol in July-December 2006. Telefonica Europe generated OIBDA7 of 4,977 million in 2007 including the 1,296 million euro capital gain from the sale of Airwave recorded in the second quarter, a contribution of 18.3% to total Group OIBDA7. In 2006 Telefonica Europe reported OIBDA of 3,708 million euros; this figure reflected the consolidation of the O2 Group in February-December and Telefonica O2 Czech Republic and Telefonica Germany for the full twelve months. The OIBDA margin excluding the Airwave capital gain was 25.5% vs. 28.2% in 2006. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7 Excluding the capital gain from Airwave (1,296 million euros) from Telefonica Europe and from Group OIBDA the Airwave capital gains and the capital gain of 1,368 million euros from the disposal of Endemol. In the fourth quarter O2 UK's OIBDA fell by 4.9% year-on-year in local currency due to a 20.5 million euros charges, mainly due to personnel reorganization costs at its IT and technology business aimed at achieving future efficiencies. Stripping out this expense, OIBDA would have been almost flat vs. 2006. At O2 Germany, fourth-quarter OIBDA fell by 77.9% year-on-year due to non-recurrent charges of 151 million euros. Most of these were accounted for by the early cancellation of the roaming agreement in Germany with T-Mobile mentioned earlier and the personnel reorganization plan initiated in the second quarter of the year. Telefonica O2 Czech Republic recorded a fall of approximately 1.1 percentage points in its OIBDA margin partly explained by the negative contribution of its operations in Slovakia. Depreciation and amortisation in 2007 totalled 9,437 million euros, 2.8% lower than 2006 figure. Both Telefonica Espan and Telefonica Latinoamerica contributed the most to lower depreciation and amortisation (6.0% and 3.0% less year-on-year, respectively). Telefonica Europe recorded a decrease (0.4% year-on-year) owing to the purchase price allocations in the O2 Group acquisition (802 million euros) and the Telefonica O2 Czech Republic acquisition (158 million euros). In organic terms8, depreciation and amortisation for the Telefonica Group fell 3.7% in 2007 year-on-year, with Telefonica Espan and Telefonica Europe chiefly responsible for this decline. The sharp rise in OIBDA and fall in depreciation and amortisation drove operating income (OI) 42.1% higher in the year to 13,388 million euros. Stripping out the impact of the Airwave and Endemol disposals, OI would have increased by 13.8%. Organic growth8 was 47.0% (+18.1% excluding the capital gains from the disposals of Airwave and Endemol). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8 Assuming constant exchange rates and including the consolidation of the O2 Group, Telefonica Telecom and Iberbanda in January-December 2006. It excludes the consolidation of Telefonica O2 Slovakia in January-December 2007, the consolidation of TVA in October-December 2007, the consolidation of Airwave in April-December 2006 and the consolidation of Endemol in July-December 2006. Profit from associates jumped 83.3% in 2007 to 140 million euros. The bulk of the increase was due to Portugal Telecom and Lycos Europe, which in April sold its investment in the Czech-based IP provider Seznam, c.z. The improvement was also underpinned by the fact that Sogecable and The Link have not been consolidated under the equity method since the fourth quarter of 2006. Net financial results at the end of 2007 amounted to 2,844 million euros, 4.0% above those of the same period of 2006. This variation arises mainly from the increase in the average cost of debt for Telefonica Group due to higher interest rates in Europe and higher percentage of debt in Latinoamerica, that drives financial expenses up by 207 million euros. The increase in the average cost of debt is offset by the 200 million euros reduction due to the decrease of average total debt in 2007. Management of the present value of pre-retirement plan commitments and other positions associated to marked-to-market positions, have a positive impact of 84 million euros, 42 million euros behind the figure reported for 2006. The average cost calculated on average total net debt for 2007 is 5.59% and 5.61% when excluding FX results. Free cash flow generated by the Telefonica Group in 2007 amounted 8,847 million euros of which 2,113 and 3,076 million euros were assigned to Telefonica's share buyback program and dividend payment respectively, and 781 million euros to commitment cancellations derived mainly from the pre-retirements plans. Due to the fact that financial divestitures for the period amounted to 2,512 million euros, mainly due to Airwave and Endemol disposals and TELCO participation, net financial debt decreased in 5,389 million euros. Also, net debt was reduced by an additional 1,472 million euros because of FX impact, changes in the consolidation perimeter and other effects on financial accounts. All this has been translated in a decrease of 6,861 million euros in respect to the net financial debt of the fiscal year 2006 (52,145 million euros), reaching the net financial debt of Telefonica Group at 2007 45,284 million euros. The tax provision for 2007 totalled 1,565 million euros, a tax rate of 14.65% in the year. However, the cash outflow for the Group will be lower as it offsets loss carryforwards generated in previous years and which have not yet been used. In 2007 the tax rate was affected by several issues that resulted in it being significantly reduced. Chief among these were the disposal of Endemol, which generated a fiscal loss, the tax reforms in the UK, which resulted in a reduction in deferred liabilities, and the disposal of Airwave, which had no fiscal impact. Minority interests substracted 213 million euros in 2007, a 38.5% year-on-year decrease mainly due to the merger by absorption of Telefonica Moviles by Telefonica S.A. in July 2006. Minority stakes in Telesp and Telefonica O2 Czech Republic accounted for the bulk of profit attributable to minority interests. In all, consolidated net profit to December totalled 8,906 million euros, up 42.9% year-on-year. Basic earnings per share jumped 43.5% to 1.872 euros. In the fourth quarter, net profit amounted to 1,058 million euros, up 2.3% year-on-year, while earnings per share stood at 0.224 euros compared to 0.213 euros per share in the fourth quarter of 2006.

RESULTS BY REGIONAL BUSINESS UNITS Telefonica Espan Telefonica Espan successfully bolstered its position in an extremely active and competitive market, meeting all the financial targets announced for 2007. Revenues grew by 4.7% in 2007 to 20,683 million euros, beating the growth target of 3.5% - 4.5%. Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) jumped by 9.3% to 9,448 million euros, putting the OIBDA margin at 45.7%. For purposes of comparison with the OIBDA growth target for 2007 of between 9% and 11%, factoring in the factors taken into consideration when this target was set, OIBDA growth stood at 11.6%, meeting the target upgraded in July 2007. CapEx amounted to 2,381 million euros, an increase of 3.4% from 2006. CapEx target for 2007, which excluded investments related to Real Estate Efficiency Plan, was set at keeping the figure below 2,400 million euros in 2007. Investment effort has been mainly devoted to growing the Internet and Broadband businesses, with significant investments related to ADSL and IP services (Imagenio). Worth to highlight is the launching of the mobile and fixed network transformation processes. Operating Cash Flow (OIBDA-CapEx) for the year amounted to 7,067 million euros, growing by 11.4% compared to the January-December 2006 period. As with regards to the Redundancy Plan (E.R.E. 2003-2007) at the Wireline Business, it should be noted its conclusion after registering 1,102 sign-ups in the final year of the programme, with a related provision of 345 million euros. During the last quarter of 2007, Telefonica took decisions of organizational nature aiming to foster a structure to ease technological convergence and services delivering in the businesses where the company operates. With this objective, and within the integration model adopted, ongoing efforts on personnel reorganization are being implemented. This has resulted in a new personnel reorganization programme approved, which by December 31st 2007 had already been initiated. The estimated cost of this programme amounts to 322 million euros (168 million euros at the Wireline Business and 154 million euros at the Wireless Business), with the corresponding provision already included in 2007 accounts. Total personnel reorganization costs for year 2007 amount to 667 million euros at Telefonica Espan, of which 551 million euros where accounted for in the last quarter. Highlights of Telefonica Espan's Wireline Business: • Sustained topline growth (+3.7% in 2007) underpinned by the good performance of Internet and broadband services and, to a lesser extent, data and IT services. • Strong competitive position in the Broadband market, maintaining its estimated market share above 56%. At the end of December Telefonica's retail broadband accesses reached 4.6 million. • Losses in the number of fixed telephony lines were contained at just 0.3% year-on-year (December 2007 vs. December 2006) after posting 32.801 net adds in the fourth quarter. Net losses for the year 2007 stood at 51,901 lines, the best year-on-year performance since 2001. • 5.1% underlying OIBDA growth in 2007 (stripping out specific effects such as personnel reorganization costs, the Real Estate Programme and subsidies among others). • Conclusion of the Redundancy Plan (2003/2007), to which a total of 13,870 employees signed up during the five years it was in force. Highlights of Telefonica Espan's Wireless Business include: • Solid service revenues growth of 4.5% in 2007, driven by the strong performance of customer revenues (+8.0%). • The customer base grew by 6.4% year-on-year to 22.8 million lines, with growth in the contract segment jumping 12.4%. Contract customers now account for almost 60% of the total customer base. • Churn remained flat at 1.8% in the face of increased competitive pressure, similar to the 2006 figure, with a slight reduction in contract churn achieved down to 1.0%. • Increasing contribution from data revenues (+12.4% in 2007 vs. 2006), with connectivity revenues posting the best performance, up over 70% in 2007. • 6.5% increase in OIBDA under guidance criteria in year 2007 (excluding costs related to personnel reorganization). OIBDA reaches 4,395 million euros in 2007, with an OIBDA margin over revenues of 45.3%. RESULTS BY REGIONAL BUSINESS UNITS Telefonica Espan WIRELINE BUSINESS Revenues in 2007 amounted to 12,401 million euros, with growth reaching 3.7% year-on-year in the fourth quarter. Cumulative growth to December stood at 3.7%, slightly exceeding the growth target of between 2.5% and 3.5%. This rise was underpinned by growth in Internet and broadband services and data and IT services, not forgetting the noteworthy performance of traditional voice and access revenues, with the former falling slightly and the latter remaining stable. Traditional access revenues amounted to 2,772 million euros, a year-on-year increase of 0.1%, led by the 2.0% increase in the PSTN line monthly fee and fewer losses of fixed telephony accesses relative to 2006. • The Spanish wireline access market grew by an estimated 1.9% over the course of the year. The Company's fixed telephony accesses totalled 15,897,966 at the end of 2007 in the wake of fourth quarter net line gains of 32,801, stemming the pace of the year-on-year decline to 0.3% (-0.7% at September 2007). The strong performance during the fourth quarter, the best figure since the first quarter of 2001, means that net line losses in 2007 were contained at 51,901, down substantially on those recorded in 2006 (-185,696 net access losses). These figures make 2007 the best year since 2001 in terms of net adds. • Telefonica's share of the wireline access market remained stable vs. September 2007 at 81%. Voice service revenues continued to follow the positive trend seen in previous quarters, and fell by 1.6% in 2007 (-2.1% in the first nine months of the year). Voice service revenues remained flat in year-on-year terms in the fourth quarter, underpinned by a 12.5% jump in interconnection revenues, driven by higher incoming international and carrier traffic and falls in outgoing traffic (-1.4%) and handset sales (-6.1%). • The number of pre-selected lines fell further, declining by 110,859 in 2007 to 1,795,660 at the end of December. • In line with the positive revenue trend, Telefonica Espan's estimated share of wireline traffic remains stable at around 65%. Internet and broadband revenues surged by 11.9% in the fourth quarter, boosted by revenues in the retail broadband segment which were 17.4% higher year-on-year. Internet and broadband revenues increased by 15.5% in 2007 from 2006. Retail broadband service revenues were up +24.2% in December, accounting for 3.8 percentage points of the revenue growth registered by Telefonica Espan's Wireline Business. Growth in these revenues slowed through the year, to post a growth of 17.4% in the last quarter, due to the decline in retail broadband net adds in 2007 vs. 2006 (-19.0%). At the same time, wholesale broadband service revenues fell 11.3% in 2007, mainly on account of the migration of wholesale ADSL to unbundled loops. • Estimated net adds in the fixed broadband Internet access market amounted to 0.4 million in the fourth quarter, resulting in estimated net adds of around 1.4 million for the entire year, 18.9% down on 2006. The total estimated market in Spain in December 2007 stood at 8.1 million accesses. • Telefonica's retail Internet broadband accesses net adds in the fourth quarter came to 227,480, taking total accesses to 4,571,599 at the end of December. This gave Telefonica continued segment leadership with an estimated market share of over 56%, slightly higher than in 2006. • The estimated share of unbundled loops in the broadband Internet access market increased to almost 17% (14% in 2006). Net adds during the fourth quarter amounted to 116,088 loops, down 29.3% on that recorded in the same quarter of 2006. Total unbundled loops at the end of December amounted to 1,353,940, of which 57.3% were shared access loops. • The wholesale ADSL service continued to lose steam during the fourth quarter due to the lower number of migrations to unbundled loops. In the wake of net fourth quarter losses of 13,658, total wholesale accesses amounted to 499,263 at the end of December. • Telefonica continues to spearhead the development of the pay TV market in Spain, achieving an estimated market share below 13% (10% by December end 2006) after adding 42,020 new customers in the fourth quarter. As a result its customer base had risen to 511,087 by the end of December 2007. • The total number of Duo and Trio bundles stood at 3,792,002 units at the end of December 2007. It is worth highlighting that over 80% of the Company's retail Internet broadband accesses are included in a double or triple play bundle (over 70% by December 2006 end). Data service revenues grew sharply in the fourth quarter to 14.1% from 5.6% in the nine months to September 2007. This increase in the pace of growth is underpinned by the 12.0% increase in revenues from Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) in the fourth quarter of 2007, driven by the strong uptake in fibre and ADSL VPNs. Wholesale services also posted an impressive 22.8% growth in the fourth quarter, compared with growth of 6.8% in the January-September 2007 period. IT service revenues grew 11.6% in 2007 versus 2006. Operating expenses at Telefonica Espan's Wireline Business totalled 7,337 million euros in 2007, 4.0% less than in 2006. This fall relates to lower personnel reorganization costs (513 million euros in 2007 vs. 980 million euros in 2006), which fell by 47.7%. These costs are broken up into 345 million euros in connection with the E.R.E. 2003-2007 (Redundancy Plan) to which 1.102 employees have joined in 2007, the ending year of the program, plus 168 million euros of the new personnel reorganization programme initiated in 2007 and to be implemented through 2008. Stripping out personnel reorganization costs in 2006 and 2007 and the actuarial review, operating expenses grew 2.5% in 2007. This growth was due to: i) the 8.5% rise in external services expenses to 1,413 million euros due to increased commercial activity and PUT (Public Use Telephony) expenses; ii) the 1.2% increase in supply expenses to 3,008 million euros, especially expenses associated with Internet and Imagenio; and iii) the 0.2% growth in personnel expenses, once stripped out personnel reorganization costs, amounting 2,129 million euros. Personnel expenses fell by 14.9% in the year as a whole to 2,642 million euros due to the impact of the above mentioned lower personnel reorganization costs. Topline growth outpaced expenses excluding personnel reorganization costs. This, together with the decline of personnel reorganization costs, boosted operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) by 14.8% to 5,249 million euros in 2007. OIBDA in October-December 2007 totalled 1,181 million euros, substantially higher than the figure reported in the same period of 2006 (+47.1%). This was due primarily to the higher personnel reorganization costs accounted for in the last quarter of 2006 (588 million euros vs. 397 million euros in the fourth quarter of 2007). Stripping out specific items such as the redundancy provision (E.R.E. 2003-2007), the new personnel programme, the real estate programme, subsidies, the fine imposed by the EU and recognised in the second quarter, and others, underlying OIBDA rose 5.1% in 2007, having grown by 3.5% in the fourth quarter of 2007. For purposes of comparison with the stated financial targets, if a total provision of 630 million euros had been booked for personnel reorganization costs (compared with the actual provision of 513 million euros), and capital gains from property sales and others stood at 162 million euros (compared with the reported amount of 163 million euros), OIBDA growth would have been 15.8%, at the top end of the growth target of 13.5% -16% (the 151.9 million euro fine imposed by the European Union is considered a unforeseeable expense and consequently is not included as part of the financial targets). The OIBDA margin in 2007 stood at 42.3%. Excluding the effect of personnel reorganization programmes and the actuarial review in both years, along with the fine imposed by the European Union in the second quarter of 2007, the OIBDA margin would have expanded by 1.3 percentage points year-on-year to 47.7%. RESULTS BY REGIONAL BUSINESS UNITS Telefonica Espan WIRELESS BUSINESS The Spanish wireless market surpassed the 50.7 million-line mark by the end of 2007, with an estimated penetration rate of 111% (an increase of more than 6 percentage points vs. December 2006). Against this backdrop, Telefonica Espan's Wireless Business achieved net adds of 406,837 customers in the fourth quarter (426,235 in the fourth quarter of 2006), beating the figures recorded in the first three quarters of the year. In cumulative terms, Telefonica Espan's net adds stood at 1,380,596 lines (1,556,027 in 2006), with a noteworthy number of customer gains in the contract segment (1,501,800, up 4.3% on 2006). This made Telefonica Espan clear leader in contract adds in the Spanish market, improving its share of net adds in this segment in an increasingly competitive market. Commercial activity grew by 4.4% in the final quarter in year-on-year terms, with a total of more than 11.9 million commercial actions in the year, a 2.9% increase on 2006. Customer base now totals more than 22.8 million (+6.4% vs. December 2006), underpinned by growth in the contract segment (+12.4% vs. December 2006), which accounted for almost 60% of the total customer base at the end of 2007 (up more than 3 percentage points on December 2006). In portability, lines balance was positive in the fourth quarter of 2007, underpinned by the strong performance of the highest value segment, specifically 36,593 net contract adds. In the year as a whole, the net portability balance was positive (494 lines), with net adds in the contract segment of 238,320 lines. Strong gross adds (+3% in 2007 vs. 2006) and stable churn were key to the positive outcome of the company's commercial strategy. Particularly noteworthy was the growth in contract adds, which rose 12.0% year-on-year. Churn in 2007 stood at 1.8%, the same rate as in 2006 despite increased pressure from competition, and the company even achieved a slight reduction in contract churn (-0.03 percentage points) to 1.0%. Prepay churn in the final quarter of the year was lower than in the third quarter of 2007 (-0.3 percentage points) and than in the final quarter of 2006 (-0.1 percentage points). Handset upgrades once again played a key role in churn performance. Driven by loyalty campaigns, these grew by 7.8% versus the fourth quarter of 2006 and rose 7.4% in year-on-year terms. In terms of usage, the volume of traffic carried in the final quarter grew by 6.2% year-on-year (more than 15,500 million minutes) and by 11.5% in the year as a whole (over 63,300 million minutes). On-net traffic rose 7.4% in the fourth quarter and by 14.0% in the year . MoU amounted to 161 minutes in 2007 (+3.0% vs. 2006). The drop in MoU in the fourth quarter of 2007 vs. the fourth quarter of 2006 was due to the different types of promotions carried out in the two periods. Voice ARPU reached 26.7 euros in the final quarter of the year, 4.5% lower than in the same quarter of 2006. The main causes of this decrease were the April and October cuts in interconnection rates (14.9% in cumulative terms) and the regulation of roaming tariffs in the European Union. Year-on-year voice ARPU terms falls 2.8% to 27.6 euros. Outgoing voice ARPU in 2007 fell slightly to 22.9 euros (-1.0%), declining by 2.9% in the fourth quarter of 2007 to 22.3 euros. Meanwhile, data ARPU reached 5.0 euros in the fourth quarter, with year-on-year growth of 1.8% (with an increase of +2.6% in outgoing data ARPU), and full-year growth of 4.8% (5.2% in outgoing data ARPU) to 4.8 euros. The lower data ARPU growth in the fourth quarter was due to the slowdown in content services, driven by the restructuring process affecting the sector and the regulatory uncertainty (although this was recently resolved). Stripping out content revenues both in the fourth quarter of 2007 and the year as a whole, data ARPU would be growing at a rate of over 6%, underpinned by connectivity revenues (over 70% growth versus the fourth quarter of 2006). At the end of December Telefonica Espan's customers held more than 3.5 million UMTS/HSDPA handsets, representing a penetration of 16% excluding M2M, up 10 percentage points from 2006. As a result, total ARPU in the fourth quarter of 2007 was 31.8 euros, 3.6% lower than in the fourth quarter of 2006 and down 1.8% in the full year at 32.3 euros. Outgoing ARPU in 2007 remained at a similar level to 2006 (27.1 euros). With regard to data roaming, on January 14th the Wireless Business of Telefonica Espan and Telefonica Europe announced a range of new Internet roaming rates for users travelling in Europe. These will be between 42% and 61% lower than at present. Revenues rose 5.4% in 2007 to 9,693 million euros vs. 2006 and by 3.2% in the fourth quarter to 2,407 million euros. It is worth noting that since January 1st 2007 the way prepay sales and top-up commissions are accounted has changed. Instead of being recognised as a decrease in revenues, they are now reported as costs. Also, revenues/costs of portability transit routing are now reported at the net amounts. The net effect of this change is neutral at OIBDA level, although revenues would have risen 2.9% in the fourth quarter and 5.1% in 2007 excluding these accounting changes. Highlights by revenue item: • Service revenues grew by 2.6% in the fourth quarter and by 4.5% in 2007 to 8,509 million euros, within the target of between 4.0% and 5.0% growth respectively. Growth was primarily driven by customer revenues, which surged 8.0% in 2007 (+5.8% in the quarter, impacted by the regulation of roaming tariffs in the EU from September 2007) to 6,861 million euros. • Interconnection revenues fell 8.6% in 2007 (-10.8% in the fourth quarter), due to the reduction in interconnection rates. Roaming-in revenues fell by 12.4% over the year due to the downward trend in wholesale prices (-6.3% in the fourth quarter). • Revenue from handset sales totalled 1,184 million euros, a year-on-year rise of 11.9% and of 7.6% in the fourth quarter. • During the last quarter of 2007, Telefonica took decisions of organizational nature aiming to foster a structure to ease technological convergence and services delivering in the businesses where the company operates. With this objective, and within the integration model adopted, ongoing efforts on personnel reorganization are being implemented. This has resulted in a new personnel reorganization programme approved, which by December 31st 2007 had already been initiated. The estimated cost of this programme amounts to 154 million euros, with the corresponding provision already included in 2007 accounts. • Operating costs amounted to 5,541 million euros in 2007, up 7.6% on the 2006 total, underpinned by greater cost efficiency and impacted by the provision mentioned. In the fourth quarter, operating costs were 13.1% up year-on-year, totalling 1,531 million euros. Excluding this provision, the operating costs would have amounted to 5,387 milion euros in 2007 (1,378 million euros in the fourth quarter), up 4.6% vs. 2006 (+1.8% in the quarter). Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) grew by 2.8% in 2007 in relation to 2006 to 4,241 million euros. Fourth-quarter OIBDA amounted to 902 million euros, a year-on-year decline of 10.0%. Excluding the aforementioned provision, the OIBDA would have increased by 6.5% vs. 2006 amounting 4,395 million euros comfortably beating the target of between 4.0% and 5.0% growth. In the fourth quarter, the OIBDA excluding the provision reached 1,056 million euros, up 5.3% year-on-year. The OIBDA margin stood at 43.9% in the fourth quarter (43.0% in the same period of 2006), and 45.3% in cumulative terms vs. 44.9% in 2006, despite increasing commercial activity in a highly competitive market.

RESULTS BY REGIONAL BUSINESS UNITS Telefonica Latinoamerica In accordance with the Group's new structure, Telefonica Latinoamerica's results include Telefonica Group's fixed line and wireless operators' results in the Latin American region. Furthermore, figures for the Telefonica Latinoamerica Group also include the results of Telefonica Telecom, from the 1st of May 2006. At the end of December 2007, Telefonica Latinoamerica managed 134.1 million accesses, a year-on-year increase of 16.9%, boosted by growth of 22.4% in cellular customers to almost 102 million. Net adds during the fourth quarter amounted to 7.3 million, the Group's best ever figure. Growth rates were high in almost all the countries in the mobile business, with customer growth especially robust in Mexico (+46.6% year-on-year to over 12.5 million customers), Argentina (+22.6%, 13.7 million customers), and Peru (+58.5%, 8.1 million customers). Wireline telephony accesses reached 23.9 million, in line with those managed a year earlier, with significant growth in Peru (+11.3% year-on-year) which offset the lower number of lines in service in other countries. Growth in retail internet broadband accesses remained strong, up 33.2% year-on-year to over 5.0 million accesses, reflecting the sales and marketing efforts made by all the operators. Telefonica Latinoamerica now has close to 1.2 million pay TV customers, with operations in Peru, Chile, Colombia and, since the third quarter of 2007, Brazil, where Telesp's satellite TV licence was complemented in the fourth quarter of 2007 with the incorporation of TVA . The currencies of the countries in which Telefonica operates depreciated against the euro in year-on-year terms, with the exception of the Brazilian real and the Colombian peso, whose average exchange rates appreciated by 2.5% and 3.7% respectively. This detracted 3.5 and 3.2 percentage points from revenue and OIBDA growth in 2007 respectively, although less than in previous quarters (currency effects reduced revenue and OIBDA growth by 3.7 and 3.5 percentage points in the first nine months, respectively, and by 5.0 and 4.9 percentage points respectively in the first half of 2007). Revenues at Telefonica Latinoamerica in 2007 rose 11.0% year-on-year in current euros to 20,078 million euros. In constant euros revenue growth was 14.5%, within the growth range communicated to the market of +13% to +16%1. Changes in the consolidation perimeter contributed 1.5 percentage points to constant currency revenue growth. In constant currency terms, the countries contributing most to top line growth are Mexico and Venezuela with respective contributions of 3.2 and 3.1 percentage points. Brazil continues to make the largest contribution to Telefonica Latinoamerica's revenues (38.2%) followed by Venezuela (11.9%) and Argentina (11.3%). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 T. Latam base reported figures include eight months of Telefonica Telecom (consolidated since May 2006). 2007 guidance assumes constant exchanges rates as of 2006. All figures exclude changes in consolidation. In terms of guidance calculation, OIBDA excludes other exceptional revenues/expenses not foreseeable in 2007. Personnel reorganization plans and Real Estate Programs are included as operating revenues/expenses, with the exception of the ones decided after the guidance communication at the beginning of the year. For comparison the equivalent other exceptional revenues/expenses registered in 2006 are also deducted from reported figures. Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) jumped 8.4% in current euros in 2007 to 7,121 million euros. In constant currency terms, Telefonica Latinoamerica's OIBDA growth increased to 11.5%. Changes in the consolidation perimeter contributed 1.0 percentage points to constant currency OIBDA growth. By country, Venezuela contributed most to OIBDA growth (5.2 percentage points), followed by Mexico (3.1 percentage points). In absolute terms, Brazil is the largest contributor to Telefonica Latinoamerica's OIBDA, accounting for 43.1% of the total, followed by Venezuela (14.9%) and Argentina (11.1%). Telefonica Latinoamerica's OIBDA growth slowed in the fourth quarter of 2007 (+13.8% in constant euros to September) as a result of a provision of 258 million euros in the quarter for personnel reorganization plans in several group companies, after the company decided to accelerate the implementation of plans already in place, and the launching of new ones. Personnel reorganization costs stood at 318 million euros in 2007, with the departure of 1,684 people in the year accounting for 105 million euros of this sum. The company's plans for 2008 account for the remaining 213 million euros, affecting Telesp, Telefonica del Peru, Telefonica de Argentina, Telefonica Telecom and Telefonica Moviles Colombia. Regarding the objectives communicated to the market, OIBDA grew by 15.5%, within the range of 14% to 17%2 forecast by the company, which did not factor in the personnel reorganization expenses recorded in the fourth quarter of 2007. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 T. Latam base reported figures include eight months of Telefonica Telecom (consolidated since May 2006). 2007 guidance assumes constant exchanges rates as of 2006. All figures exclude changes in consolidation. In terms of guidance calculation, OIBDA excludes other exceptional revenues/expenses not foreseeable in 2007. Personnel reorganization plans and Real Estate Programs are included as operating revenues/expenses, with the exception of the ones decided after the guidance communication at the beginning of the year. For comparison the equivalent other exceptional revenues/expenses registered in 2006 are also deducted from reported figures. Telefonica Latinoamerica's OIBDA margin in 2007 amounted to 35.5%, 0.9 percentage points lower than in 2006, affected by the personnel reorganization provisions outlined above. Excluding these provisions, the margin would have been 37.1% (0.3 percentage points higher than the one recorded in 2006). Telefonica Latinoamerica's CapEx in 2007 stood at 3,343 million euros, up 18.9% year-on-year (+23.0% in constant euros). This increase was driven by stronger commercial activity at its wireline business, both in broadband and TV, the increased coverage and capacity of its GSM networks and the acquisition of spectrum in Venezuela, Brazil and Panama to expand coverage and guarantee service quality in areas where traffic is heaviest. In 2007 Telefonica Latinoamerica generated operating cash flow (OIBDA-CapEx) of 3,778 million euros, growth of 0.5% in current euros (+3.0% in constant euros). BRAZIL Telefonica Latinoamerica managed close to 49 million accesses in Brazil at 31 December 2007, 9.5% more than a year earlier. This growth reflects a 15.2% year-on-year increase in Vivo's customer base and, to a lesser extent, the expansion of Telesp's broadband business and the incorporation of TVA's MMDS pay TV customers. This is offset by a reduction in the number of wireline accesses at Telesp and the changes to the accounting criteria used to record narrowband internet accesses made in the second quarter of 2007. In 2007, Telefonica Latinoamerica in Brazil reported revenues of 7,662 million euros, up 3.2% in local currency vs. 2006 thanks to the sharp increase in Vivo's sales, which offset Telesp's lower revenues. Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) totalled 3,026 million euros, down 3.8% on 2006 due to the fall in earnings at Telesp, partly related to tax reversals booked in 2006 and the higher provisions made in 2007 for personnel reorganization (explaining 0.8 percentage points of this reduction) which were not offset by the significant improvement in Vivo's results. Meanwhile CapEx amounted to 1,087 million euros, an increase of 3.1% year-on-year in local currency, driven by the larger investments carried out by Telesp in its growth businesses (broadband and television). TELESP At the end of December, Telesp managed 15.5 million telephony, broadband and TV accesses, 1.2% less than in 2006, due both to the reduction in the number of wireline accesses, in a context of a strong growth in the cellular business in the country, and the implementation of more restrictive accounting criteria (based on activity) for narrowband Internet accesses. The company ended the year with just under 12 million wireline accesses (-1.2% year-on-year), of which approximately 22% were prepay or lines with consumption limits. A total of 196,300 MMDS TV accesses from TVA (acquired recently) were added in December 2007 to the 34,600 satellite TV (DTH) subscriber base. This latter service was launched in August 2007. The broadband market continued to grow strongly in 2007 (+36% vs. 2006). Telesp accounted for around 56% of this growth, increasing its retail broadband customer base by 28.7% vs. 2006 to over two million accesses. A number of significant milestones were achieved in 2007. These included: the launch of the Trio Telefonica triple play bundle on 12 August, with different connection speed options and a range of TV content choices, on 1 October the company included GloboSat content in its TV offer, and in the fourth quarter the acquisition of TVA's MMDS operations was completed. Telesp carried slightly more (+1.5%) traffic in 2007 (71,140 million minutes) than a year earlier, due mainly to growth in long distance traffic by SMP mobile accesses (+36.2%) as a result of the joint marketing strategy rolled out with VIVO. Local traffic levels were similar to those recorded in 2006 despite the reduction in the number of wireline accesses. Fixed-mobile traffic fell a noteworthy 4.4% year-on-year as a result of heavy migration to wireless networks. Telesp is focusing on the sale of traffic bundles, both bundled lines (monthly fee + unlimited local calling) and traffic packages (long distance, fixed-mobile and narrowband Internet traffic). Telesp reported revenues of 5,619 million euros in 2007, down 1.5% year-on-year in local currency. This slight drop in revenues was due to the fall in traditional business revenues (-3.1% vs. 2006 in local currency), attributable to the loss of basic telephony billable lines, the change in customer mix with a higher percentage of lines with consumption limits, the negative tariff adjustment made in July 2006 and the 20% reduction in local interconnection tariffs in January. The increase in broadband revenues (+16.2% in local currency), lagged access growth due to more intense competition and was not sufficient to fully offset the fall in traditional revenues. Nonetheless, the operator readjusted ADSL tariffs in mid October to coincide with the launch of an improved range of speeds for new ADSL services. The pace of growth marked by Internet revenues (narrowband + broadband + TV) picked up (+14.1% year-on-year in local currency vs. +10.3% to September) and these now account for 9.9% of the company's revenues (8.5% in 2006) due to the increase in broadband revenues and the incorporation of TVA's revenues in the fourth quarter. Operating expenses rose 5.9% in local currency in 2007, affected by a higher level of bad debt, leading to higher provisions (+65.5% in local currency vs. 2006). The ratio of bad debt to revenues was 3.6%, lower than the figure of 3.9% reported in September, due to the implementation of various measures adopted to stem this ratio. These include stricter entry filters and more actions to recover bad debts. Another factor behind the rise in operating expenses is the higher external service expenses (+5.4% in local currency) caused by stronger commercial activity. Supply costs rose by 3.2% in local currency despite the 20% reduction in the local interconnection tariff, due mainly to the rise in interconnection traffic (especially SMP).Personnel expenses rose by 5.0% in local currency due to the provisions associated with personnel reorganization programmes, which affected 800 employees in 2007. Total provisions amounted to 54 million euros, of which around 22 million euros correspond to plans that will be implemented in the first months of 2008. Personnel costs excluding these provisions decreased 1.0% vs. 2006 in local currency. Telesp reported Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) of 2,438 million euros in 2007, down 9.7% year-on-year in local currency due to the loss of traditional business revenues, higher bad debt provisions and higher personnel reorganization costs. The comparison is further affected by the fact that in September 2006 Telesp recorded tax reversals (PIS/COFINS). The OIBDA margin stood at 43.4%, 3.9 percentage points lower than in 2006, impacted by the two factors mentioned above. Stripping out personnel reorganization expenses, Telesp's OIBDA would have fallen by 8.7% vs. 2006 in local currency, with a margin of 44.3%. CapEx in 2007 was 729 million euros in local currency, 11.2% higher than the figure reported a year earlier due to greater investment in broadband and pay TV and higher cable theft recorded in the last three quarters. VIVO Vivo's strong earnings in 2007 reflect the management measures implemented in 2006 and 2007 to achieve profitable growth and increase customer satisfaction, resulting in a significant increase in the customer base and the ARPU growth. Momentum remained strong in the fourth quarter, with the Christmas campaign launched in November resulting in fierce competition on the market. Also, Vivo has been involved in convergent offer campaigns since October, with minute combinations for cellular, wireline and Internet calls and two mobile-fixed packages. Vivo maintained its leadership in the quarter in terms both of market share and adds in its operating area. The company reported 4.2 million gross adds in the final quarter of the year, 1.7 million more than in the same quarter last year (+66.5%), one of the highest figures in recent years. Factors contributing to this strong performance include the wider range of handsets, Vivo's leadership in terms of commercial reach, ongoing incentive campaigns for prepay traffic and the improved capacity to attract contract customers with the 'Vivo Escolha' plans. It is worth highlighting that Vivo achieved net adds close to 2.2 million new customers in the fourth quarter, enjoying a position of market leadership in terms of customer acquisitions in December (1.4 million customers, a net gain market share above 38% in its operating area). As a result, Vivo's net adds for the year stood at over 4.4 million customers. By the end of 2007, 42% of the contract segment had subscribed to a Vivo Escolha plan, significantly enhancing the market's perception of Vivo's commercial offer. Contract gross adds rose 39.7% in the fourth quarter year-on-year and by 47.2% year-on-year for the full year. These plans also helped to increase customer loyalty, with total churn in the fourth quarter standing at 2.1% (0.4 percentage points less than in the same quarter a year earlier) and at 2.3% in the year (compared with 2.9% in 2006). Also noteworthy was the market's positive reaction to Vivo's GSM network. Vivo obtained 85% of gross GSM adds in the quarter, putting its GSM customer base at the end of December at 11.3 million, 34% of its total customer base. Vivo ended December with a total of 33.5 million customers (+15.2% vs. December 2006) in a market with an estimated penetration rate of 65.6%, up more than 10 percentage points year-on-year in the company's area of activity. This figure reflects the high levels of commercial activity, especially in the fourth quarter. Revenues for the year totalled 2,396 million euros, a year-on-year increase of +16.5% in local currency, with growth further accelerating in the final quarter (+15.8% year-on-year in local currency in the first nine months of 2007). Service revenues grew 18.4% year-on-year in local currency, vs. 2006, largely driven by higher interconnection revenues after the elimination of the Bill & Keep rule in July 2006. Stripping out this impact, service revenues would have grown 10.2% (vs. +8.1% in the first nine months of the year). In the contract segment, the Vivo Escolha plans remain the main tool for attracting and retaining the most valuable customers; leading to outgoing ARPU rise of 8.9%. The prepay segment also continued to fare well in the fourth quarter, with outgoing ARPU up 22.9% year-to-date as a result of successful traffic incentive campaigns, leading to a 22.7% year-on-year increase in MoU. Total MoU rose by 3.9% compared with the same period in 2006, with cumulative total ARPU up 14.5% year-on-year at 11.9 euros. Vivo recorded Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) through to December of 588 million euros, an increase of 30.8% on 2006 in local currency. Contributing factors include strong topline growth combined with control over customer management costs, notably the 49.3% year-on-year reduction in bad debts in local currency. This in turn evidences the strict control exercised over new customer acquisitions in the campaigns. These controls were sufficient to offset higher commercial expenses. The OIBDA margin in 2007 was 24.5%, up 2.7 percentage points on 2006, improving by 5.6 percentage points year-on-year in the final quarter to 25.6%. Excluding the impact of the elimination of the Bill&Keep rule, OIBDA growth in 2007 would have been 30.6%, with a margin of 27.4%. In 2007 the company achieved full national coverage, winning thirteen of the fifteen 1900 licences auctioned in September, and the entirety of the J band in the 3G licence auction carried out by Anatel last December. This means it can now guarantee service quality in the areas with heaviest traffic. Also, Vivo is awaiting the final green light from Anatel to acquire Telemig, although the company agreed the sale of the Amazonia shares to Telemar in December. ARGENTINA Telefonica maintained its leadership in its operating area in 2007, to reach 19.5 million accesses, a year-on-year growth of 15.8%. This increase was underpinned by the sharp growth in cellular customers, up by 22.6% vs. December 2006 to more than 13.7 million, and by broadband accesses, which totalled 819,000, 58.3% more than in 2006. This strong operating performance is reflected in the financial data, with revenues rising by 15.7% in local currency vs. 2006 to 2,264 million euros. Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) rose 8.0% year-on-year in local currency to 773 million euros in 2007, reaching an OIBDA margin of 32.9%. CapEx stood at 289 million euros (243 million euros in 2006). This higher investment is due to the development of broadband and new businesses, as well as the increase in wireless network capacity. TELEFONICA DE ARGENTINA Telefonica de Argentina had 5.7 million accesses at the end of 2007, up 2.1% on 2006. This figure was underpinned by the 58.3% growth in retail broadband accesses to 819,000, which offset the slight fall in wireline accesses (-1.3%). Total voice traffic remained stable year-on-year despite the sharp growth in the company's cellular business in the country. The falls in local (-5.6% vs. 2006) and interconnection (-4.8% vs. 2006) fixed-to-fixed traffic were offset by the healthy performance of mobile-to-fixed interconnection traffic (+27.4% vs. 2006). Intelligent network traffic improved throughout 2007 (+51.1% vs. 2006) while public use telephony traffic fell by -20.8% vs 2006. Revenues in the fixed line business came to 984 million euros in 2007, a year-on-year growth of 9.9% in local currency terms, with the traditional wireline business contributing 45% of this growth, the Internet business contributing 40%, and data and IT businesses accounting for the remainder. Traditional revenues rose 5.4% in local currency in 2007, reflecting the strong uptake of flat rate plans, strong traffic (mobile to fixed interconnection) and momentum in value added services and the sale of equipment. Bundle revenue growth was underpinned mainly by local fixed-to-fixed calling plans on the back of strong uptake for the flat-rate per call plan launched in mid-2006, whose performance in 2007 exceeded all expectations. Higher interconnection revenues were driven primarily by traffic generated by mobile operators and incoming international traffic. Internet and broadband revenues were up by 34.8% vs. 2006, accounting for 14% of total revenues. The broadband business was the main growth driver in 2007 with revenues up 45.7% in local currency and 819,000 accesses at the end of December, 1.6 times the number in December 2006; this offsets the fall in narrowband revenues. Broadband was boosted by the launch of the DUO plan (a flat rate plan bundling voice and broadband) in the last quarter of 2006 with 34% of broadband users currently using this plan. Thanks to higher revenues from virtual private networks, turnkey projects and satellite services, data and information technology business lines continued to make heavy inroads (20.8% in local currency vs. 2006). Operating expenses grew 30.6% year-on-year in local currency in 2007. This was largely due to the increase in personnel expenses (+68.5% in local currency) caused by salary rises and payments in connection with the personnel reorganization plan launched during the second half of 2006, which gathered pace in the second half of 2007. Personnel reorganization costs stood at 90 million euros in 2007 (67 million euros in the fourth quarter of 2007), with the departure of 741 personnel in 2007 accounting for 50 million euros of this sum; remaining 40 million euros correspond to reorganization to be executed in the coming months. Stripping out these personnel reorganization costs, operating expenses would have grown by 14.3% vs. 2006 and personnel costs by 18.7%. Supply costs rose 22.3% in local currency in 2007, driven up by higher equipment rental and higher purchases of equipment for resale. External service expenses rose 7.7% year-on-year in local currency due to the rise in activity (customer services, advertising, commissions and logistics and distribution), as well as price increases across various services including rents, energy and supplies, which do not offset other cost savings (general costs and temporary works). The ratio of bad debt to revenues stood at 0.9%, 0.4 percentage points higher than in 2006 due to the impact of the strike action which meant lower collection activity during the troubles. However, sound management over this period permitted a reduction in the ratio of 1.1% reported in September 2007. Prepay and controlled consumption segments accounted for 25% of the total, down slightly compared with previous quarters. Telefonica de Argentina's operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) fell 13.3% year-on-year in local currency in 2007 to 356 million euros. This fall was chiefly attributable to the higher personnel expenses detailled earlier. Stripping out the personnel reorganization expenses, OIBDA would have grown by 6.2% vs. 2006 in local currency. The 2007 OIBDA margin stood at 30.9% (39.0% in 2006). Stripping out the impact of these expenses, the OIBDA margin would have reached 38.7% in 2007 (39.9% in 2006). CapEx amounted to 165 million euros, a 30.3% increase in local currency on 2006. Investment was primarily earmarked for the development of broadband and new businesses. TEM ARGENTINA The Argentine cellular market continued to grow at a strong pace in 2007, boosting estimated penetration to over 97% at December 2007 (+20 percentage points higher than at December 2006), ending the year with the highest penetration in Latin America. Net adds in TEM Argentina in the fourth quarter of 2007 stood at 656,269 new customers. Over the year as a whole, churn was down on 2006 (1.7%, -0.3 percentage points vs. 2006), boosting net adds in the year to more than 2.5 million (compared with almost 2.9 million in 2006). It is noteworthy the strong focus in contract customer acquisition during 2007 and the fourth quarter of 2007, adding along the year 1.1 million customers (+68.5% vs. 2006), weighting the contract net adds in the fourth quarter 2007 more than 58% of the total. The company ended the year with almost 13.7 million customers, a 22.6% increase vs. the customer base at year-end 2006. GSM customers now account for 86.5% of the total customer base (+13.3 percentage points from December 2006). Revenues hit the 1,353 million euro mark in 2007, an 18.7% year-on-year increase in local currency. The sound performance of service revenues, up 21.4% in local currency vs. 2006, drove growth. Revenue growth, coupled with lower unit commercial costs and customer management expenses as well as lower network expenses, translated into an increase in operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) of 36.5% year-on-year in local currency to 418 million euros. This left the OIBDA margin in 2007 at 30.9%, 4.1 percentage points higher than the previous year's figure. CapEx in 2007 totaled 123 million euros, an increase of 33.2% in local currency from 2006 due to the increase of the network capacity. CHILE At the end of 2007 Telefonica Latinoamerica managed a total of 9.4 million accesses in Chile, 9.6% more than in December 2006, underpinned by growth in cellular accesses (+10.6% to 6.3 million), and, to a lesser extent, an increase in retail broadband Internet accesses (+30.6% to 646,000) and pay TV (+133.4% to 220,000), while wireline telephony accesses fell 1.5% to 2.2 million. Telefonica Latinoamerica's revenues in Chile totalled 1,814 million euros in 2007, a year-on-year increase of 14.3% in local currency. Revenues were fostered by the strong growth in the cellular telephony, broadband and TV businesses, which offset the decline in the traditional wireline telephony business. Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) in 2007 totalled 716 million euros, up 8.2% in local currency vs. 2006 due to higher OIBDA in the cellular business which offset the drop in the results of the wireline business. Telefonica Latinoamerica continues to invest heavily in Chile. CapEx in 2007 totalled 418 million euros, an increase of 32.3% in local currency from 2006. Main investments continue concentrating into the fastest growing businesses: mobile telephony, ADSL and pay TV. TELEFONICA CHILE At the end of 2007 Telefonica Chile managed a total of 3.1 million accesses, 7.5% more than in 2006. Telefonica Chile's wireline accesses fell by 1.5% from 2006, though the quarterly loss in wireline accesses has notably decreased (just 300 accesses in the fourth quarter compared with almost 29,000 in the first, 3,000 in the second and 1,700 in the third). Telefonica Chile remains the market leader with an estimated share of 65% in lines. Broadband and pay TV accesses continued to grow. The commercial focus was on customer loyalty by pushing the DUO and TRIO bundles, packages which additionally increase ARPU. Telefonica Chile managed 646,000 retail broadband Internet accesses at the end of 2007, maintaining its leadership of the Chilean broadband market with an estimated 50% market share. Telefonica Chile is still growing the pay TV business, reaching 220,000 subscribers by the end of 2007. After eighteen months of operations, Telefonica Chile has established itself as the second ranking pay TV operator in the country with an estimated market share of 17%. In June 2007 the company launched its IPTV service in certain areas of Santiago, becoming the first company to do so in Latin America. In addition, new services on the DTH platform, such as new decoders equipped with personal video recorders, were launched in the final months of the year. The competitive landscape in telephony in Chile is marked by a significant fixed to mobile substitution effect. Triple play is the cornerstone of Telefonica Chile's strategic focus, aiming to increase the number of services per customer and accordingly, ARPU. In this way the operator continued to offset the contraction of its traditional telephony business with revenue growth in broadband and pay TV services. Revenues in 2007 totalled 974 million euros, a year-on-year increase of 4.0% in local currency. The launch of TV services in June 2006 and the increased broadband penetration drove a 79.7% increase in Internet and broadband revenues in local currency, offsetting the lower revenues from its traditional business (-5.8% in local currency). Internet and broadband accounted for 18.5% of the operator's total revenues in 2007, 7.8 percentage points more than in 2006, while the weighting of its traditional business fell to 75% (-7.8 percentage points from 2006). Operating expenses grew 8.9% in local currency vs. the same period in 2006. The highest increases were in external services (+19.3%), driven by higher commercial activity and improved service quality and customer services. Personnel expenses rose by 4.4% in local currency, primarily as a result of the enactment of the new Chilean Subcontracting Law. Stripping out personnel reorganization expenses, which fell by 65.1% in local currency, personnel expenses rose by 13.8% due to the impact of this law. Supply costs were up 2.1% in local currency, with the increase in expenditure on TV content and satellite capacity offset by lower interconnection costs, especially in fixed-mobile traffic. Bad debt provisions over revenues ratio in 2007 was 2.9%. Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) fell 5.3% in local currency in 2007 to 368 million euros. CapEx totalled 198 million euros, an increase of 30.1% in local currency from 2006, driven mainly by sharp growth in satellite TV services (DTH), the launch of IPTV, growth in the ADSL access base and initiatives designed to enhance network quality. TEM CHILE The Chilean market grew strongly again during 2007 with estimated penetration up 8 percentage points to 90%. Telefonica Moviles Chile remains market leader with over 6.3 million customers at the end of 2007, boosted by net adds of 602,457 customers over the year. Growth in the customer base was driven by net adds to the GSM service, which accounted for 89% of the total, 17 percentage points more than in December 2006. The number of contract customers rose by 31.4% year-on-year to 1.5 million, accounting for more than 60% of net adds in the year, though growth in the prepay customer base picked up in the final quarter (+5.2% year-on-year vs +2.2% to September ). The customer base increased 10.6% year-on-year (+7.7% to September). A highlight in December 2007 was the launch of the 3G network. Revenues for 2007 totalled 930 million euros, a year-on-year increase of 25.5% in local currency. Service revenues jumped 23.0% in local currency compared to 2006, driven by growth in ARPU, which rose 12.7% in local currency, and continues increasing its growth rate quarter after quarter (+8.4%, +10.5% and +11.6% in local currency in the first, second and third quarters respectively. This trend is underpinned by migration to GSM technology, growth in the contract customer base (24.5% of the customer base in December 2007 vs. 20.6% in December 2006), plan upgrades and the sale of minute bundles and value added services. Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) rose 27.3% in local currency in 2007 to 348 million euros, fuelled by the strong growth in revenues. Thanks to this operating efficiency, the OIBDA margin jumped 0.5 percentage points to 37.5% in 2007 despite increased commercial efforts in light of the market aggressiveness and despite the initiatives towards technology and segment migration. CapEx in 2007 totalled 220 million euros, an increase of 34.5% in local currency from 2006. PERU At the end of the year, accesses in Peru stood at 12.2 million, an increase of 39.8%, year-on-year driven by the 58.5% increase in mobile accesses, 8.1 million accesses at the end of the period, especially in the prepay segment. Also noteworthy is the growth in accesses from the IRIS project, collaboration between wireline and wireless operators launched in March 2007, with the aim of boosting the penetration of wireline telephony, and the growth in broadband and TV accesses. Telefonica's revenues in Peru hit the 1,513 million euros mark in 2007, a 10.5% year-on-year increase in local currency. This strong revenue growth was primarily driven by outgoing revenues in the prepay segment of its wireless business and broadband services and by television in its wireline business. Operating Income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) stood at 469 million euros at the end of 2007, down 15.6% year-on-year in local currency due to the decline in OIBDA in the wireline business (-28.6%) resulting from the registration of 104 million euros in the fourth quarter in provisions for the personnel reorganization that was started in 2007 and will be implemented along 2008. In 2007, the total provision for the personnel reorganization programme amounted to 105 million euros. OIBDA margin in 2007 stood at 31.0% compared to 40.6% in 2006. Stripping out the impact of the reorganization programme, the OIBDA would have grown 3.2% year-on-year in local currency and the OIBDA margin would have been 37.9%, 2.7 percentage points lower than previous year's margin. CapEx in 2007 totalled 281 million euros, an increase of 35.8% in local currency from 2006. Particularly noteworthy is the major investment in the expansion of the mobile network due to higher traffic levels. As a result, the wireless business accounted for 55% of CapEx. TELEFONICA DEL PERU Telefonica del Peru had total accesses of 4.0 million in 2007, an increase of 13.0% year-on-year, thanks to the surge in fixed wireless telephony and broadband accesses. Fixed telephony accesses, which stood at 2.8 million in December (+11.3%), grew over the year as a result of the strength of fixed wireless telephony accesses, which totalled 228,584 lines. Broadband accesses grew by 22.1% to 572,088 users. In addition, TV accesses totalled 640,045 users recording a growth of 14.9% primarily due to satellite subscribers. Voice traffic advanced by 7.2% in 2007, slightly below the cumulative growth figure to September 2007 (+8.7%). This deceleration was due to the slight fall in fixed-to-fixed traffic (-0.4%), which was partially offset by the increase in fixed-to-mobile traffic resulting from the greater penetration of wireless telephony; the fall in domestic long distance traffic (-7.4%) resulting from the abolition of pre-selection by default in October and the decline in public telephony traffic which fell further (-34.5%) due to the competition from wireless telephony and informal public call centres. In contrast we highlight the sharp growth in incoming traffic (+39.2%), both wireless and international. Revenues totalled 1,031 million euros, down 2.0% in local currency from 2006. This is primarily due to the fall in public telephony revenues (-28.6%) and to the lower revenues from the basic telephony service, affected by the cut in tariffs following the agreements made with the government in 2006 and by the decline in revenues from long distance traffic due to the abolition of pre-selection by default in October. In contrast, revenues from broadband (+24.9% in local currency) and television (+24.0% in local currency) continued to rise sharply. Internet and broadband (broadband + narrowband + TV) revenues accounted for 25.2% of total revenues in 2007 (20.2% in 2006). Operating expenses grew by 19.9% in local currency, due to higher personnel expenses resulting from the registration of the 105 million euros provision related to the personnel reorganization that was started in 2007 and will be implemented along 2008. Stripping out the impact of this reorganization, total operating expenses would have grown by 2.5% year-on-year in local currency. The higher expenses relating directly to the increased commercial activity were offset, by the lower growth in personnel costs excluding those related to personnel reorganization and in interconnection supply and media rental expenses. However, it is also worth highlighting the rise in the bad debt provision (1.8% of revenues) for services provided to the lowest income bracket groups. Operating Income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) in 2007 was 311 million euros, a year-on-year decline of 28.6% in local currency due to higher spending on the personnel reorganization and higher commercial expenses and costs associated with labour and fiscal eventualities. The 2007 OIBDA margin stood at 30.2%. Stripping out the impact of personnel reorganization expenses, OIBDA would have fallen 4.7% year-on-year in local currency and the OIBDA margin would have been 40.3%, 1.1 percentage points lower than previous year's margin. CapEx in 2007 totalled 126 million euros, a decrease of 0.2% in local currency from 2006. TEM PERU The pace of growth of the Peruvian mobile market accelerated in 2007, with an estimated penetration of 48% at the end of December (+16 percentage points compared to December 2006). At the year end Telefonica Moviles Peru's customer base stood at 8.1 million, an increase of 58.5%, year-on-year, with the prepay segment growing by more than 66% year-on-year. Migration to GSM technology continued during the year. At the end of December, GSM customers accounted for 77% of the total, up from 42% at year-end 2006. Telefonica Moviles Peru's intense commercial activity translated into significant 74.5% year-on-year growth of gross adds in 2007. Additionally, gross adds and net gain achieved during the quarter reached a record level of 1.6 million and 908,230 accesses respectively. Revenues totalled 603 million euros in 2007, up 40.5% in local currency. Particularly noteworthy was the significant growth in service revenues. Boosted by the outstanding performance throughout the year of outgoing revenues in the prepay segment (+129.9% in local currency in 2007), their growth comfortably outstripped that of the average customer base, showing high elasticity to the promotions made in the prepaid cards top-ups with 'Double' and 'Triple' play campaigns. Outgoing revenues in the contract segment also grew, although less sharply (+14.6%). Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) amounted to 158 million euros, a year-on-year rise of 27.3% in local currency, despite the increase in commercial costs due to commercial and marketing campaigns to increase the customer base. The OIBDA margin stood at 26.2%, a drop of 2.7 percentage points compared to 2006. CapEx stood at 155 million euros at the end of 2007, up 92.3% in local currency compared to 2006, being the bulk of this invested in expanding the network capacity. COLOMBIA At the end of December 2007, Telefonica reached 11.0 million accesses in Colombia which translates into growth of 7.7% compared to December 2006. During the year, revenues from the fixed and mobile businesses reached 1,569 million euros, up 27.9% on 2006 in constant currency, reflecting the first time consolidation of Telefonica Telecom in May 2006 and strong growth in Internet and Broadband revenues and service revenues at the mobile business. Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) rose 42.5% year-on-year in local currency to 485 million euros. Telefonica Telecom is consolidated in these figures from May 2006. The OIBDA margin for the period stood at 30.9% (+3.2 percentage points from December 2006). TELEFONICA TELECOM3 Telefonica Telecom reached a total of 2.6 million accesses at 31 December 2007, up 7.1% year-on-year, with an almost three-fold increase in the number of broadband users since December 2006 (a total of 200,271 accesses at 31 December 2007); which offsets the drop in wireline accesses (-1.3% year-on-year). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3 T. Telecom has been fully consolidated in the Telefonica Group from May 2006. Published variations are based on proforma 2006 figures. The Satellite TV product was launched at the start of the year. This key product, which enables Telefonica Telecom to launch 'Trio' triple play bundles (voice, broadband and TV), had 72,930 TV customers at the end of December 2007. Revenues for the wireline telephony business reached 739 million euros in 2007, representing 8.1% growth in local currency, driven mainly by Internet and Broadband growth (+ 100.3% year-on-year in local currency). The contribution from this business to total revenues increased to 8.8% in 2007 from 4.7% in December 2006. The strong growth in broadband revenues (+165.4% year-on-year in local currency) offset the drop in the narrowband business (-22.8% in revenues in local currency) due to the migration to broadband. The company extended broadband coverage to new towns and cities in 2007 and cemented its position in areas where it maintains a leadership position. The broadband business was also boosted by marketing bandwidth upgrades to corporate customers. Operating expenses in 2007 rose 16.0% year-on-year in local currency, pushed up by increases in supplies and bad debt provisions. Personnel expenses increased by 17.4% in local currency impacted by a provision of 3.2 million euros registered due to the personnel reorganization of the company initiated in 2007 and in force throughout 2008. Excluding the impact of this provision, personnel expenses would have rose by 13.4%. Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) amounted to 299 million euros, which represents year-on-year growth of 16.0% in local currency, driven largely by the strategic commitment to broadband. Excluding the impact of the personnel reorganization provision, OIBDA would have rose by 16.9%. CapEx to 31 December 2007 stood at 180 million euros. The bulk of this was invested in deploying broadband and a series of regional systems projects. TEM COLOMBIA The Colombian cellular market ended 2007 with 32.3 million customers, although growth is slowing, reaching an estimated penetration of 75% on December 2007, up 8 percentage points from 2006. In 2007 the company focused on its commercial restructuring, registering sharp increases in its capillarity and higher productivity, screening and reactivating customers and expanding its GSM coverage. Also, the company continued to work on a commercial offering with similar price schemes regardless of call destination. Gross adds increased by 61.1% in the fourth quarter of 2007 compared with the same period a year earlier and fell by 8.4% over the year. This was a result of the cut in subsidies from the final quarter of 2006 following the aggressive commercial campaigns carried out until then. Churn in 2007 stood at 3.7% , 0.6 percentage points up year-on-year, due to the disconnection of low value customers who were signed up in the aggressive campaigns carried out in 2006. Churn in the fourth quarter was 2.5%, -1.0 percentage point compared to the fourth quarter of 2006. As a result, net adds in 2007 totalled 820,532 customers, leaving the customer base at 8.4 million at 31 December 2007 (up 7.9% compared to December 2006). Of this total, 81.4% were GSM customers (+21.8 percentage points on 2006). Revenues in 2007 amounted to 869 million euros, up 7.4% year-on-year in local currency. Service revenues climbed 13.4% in local currency compared to 2006, which is above the growth of the average customer base despite the impact of the reduction in interconnection rates from December 2007. Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) rose 30.0% year-on-year in local currency to 186 million euros in 2007. The OIBDA margin stood at 21.4% in 2007, up 3.7 percentage points from 2006. Telefonica Moviles Colombia made a provision of 2.5 million euros in the fourth quarter of 2007 for personnel reorganization initiated in 2007 and in force throughout 2008. Excluding the impact of this provision, OIBDA growth would have stood at 31.7% and OIBDA margin would have reached 21.7%. CapEx in 2007 stood at 180 million euros. MEXICO Growth in the Mexican market accelerated yet again, with the penetration rate reaching an estimated 64% by December 2007 (up 11 percentage points vs. December 2006). The focus of Telefonica Moviles Mexico's commercial activity in the fourth quarter was its Christmas Campaign, with the company again launching innovative products to make up a competitive commercial offer that met customer expectations. In addition, the development of its commercial network and ongoing improvements to the quality of its network, enabled the company to maintain robust growth in its commercial activity. The customer base of Telefonica Moviles Mexico stood at 12.5 million at the end of December 2007 (of which 700,000 were contract customers), an increase of 46.6% from December 2006. This growth was underpinned in the fourth quarter by the introduction of a competitive and flexible commercial offer in the prepay segment, 'Movistar Pagamenos' ('Movistar pay less'), which enabled the company to achieve over 2.3 million gross adds in the period, a 30.8% increase on the same period in 2006. Gross adds totalled almost 7.3 million in 2007, up 42.7% on 2006. With regard to churn, the significantly higher quality of the gross adds acquired in 2007 along with the introduction of lower top-up amounts, led to a year-on-year improvement in churn to reach 2.5% in the fourth quarter of 2007 (-0.4 percentage points vs. the fourth quarter of 2006), and in line with the figure recorded in the third quarter of 2007. As a result of the strong customer gross adds and improved churn, net adds in the fourth quarter were approximately 1.5 million, signalling year-on-year growth of 32.0%. Cumulative net adds for 2007 totalled almost 4.0 million, 1.8 times the figure recorded in 2006. With regard to usage, although more than a year has passed since the launch of the commercial offer that introduced the new concept of 'Fixed rate per call', traffic growth remains buoyant. Outgoing and on-net traffic have grown substantially compared to the fourth quarter of 2006, albeit at slower rates than in previous quarters. As a result, fourth quarter MoU reached 164 minutes, a year-on-year increase of 56.6%, and fourth quarter 2007 ARPU grew by 5.4% in local terms year-on-year to 9.2 euros. ARPU growth in local currency for the full year stood at 15.8%. The company's strong business momentum fuelled a 56.4% year-on-year increase in revenues in local currency in the fourth quarter of 2007 to 420 million euros and a 58.5% year-on-year increase in 2007 to 1,431 million euros. This growth was underpinned by strong service revenues, both in the fourth quarter of 2007 (+55.9% year-on-year) and in 2007 as a whole (+65.4% vs. 2006). This outstripped growth of the company's customer base (+46.6%) in both periods, underscoring the higher quality of its customers and increased usage. The strong performance of service revenues was fuelled by higher outgoing and incoming revenues, both underpinned by the introduction of the national calling party pays service in November 2006. Growth in outgoing revenues in local currency slowed in the fourth quarter to 67.7% year-on-year, while cumulative growth stood at 82.1% due to the steady year-on-year growth in on-net traffic. Meanwhile, the launch of the national calling party pays service drove a 31.4% increase in incoming traffic revenues in the fourth quarter vs. the fourth quarter of 2006 and a rise of 42.9% in 2007 compared with 2006. Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) in the fourth quarter reflected both solid revenue growth and the efficiency gains achieved thanks to economies of scale. Despite the intense commercial activity in the fourth quarter, OIBDA totalled 66 million euros compared with the figure of 22 million euros reported in the fourth quarter of 2006. As a result, the OIBDA margin increased by 8.3 percentage points to 15.7% in the fourth quarter. OIBDA in 2007 stood at 179 million euros, a margin of 12.5% compared with an operating loss of 11 million euros in 2006. CapEx in 2007 amounted to 230 million euros compared with 180 million euros in 2006, as a result of the capacity expansion carried out to manage increases in traffic. Operating cash flow (OIBDA-CapEx) came to -51 million euros in 2007, a significant improvement on the 2006 figure of -191 million euros. VENEZUELA Penetration in the Venezuelan cellular market stood at an estimated 85% in December 2007, up 15 percentage points from December 2006. Telefonica Moviles Venezuela's commercial strategy during the fourth quarter was designed around broadening the range of handsets on offer vs. its competitors, offering certain models on an exclusive basis. The operator also launched new plans in the prepay segment. These so-called 'A tu medida' personalised plans enable customers to adapt the package to their specific needs. Customers can add on to the basic usage plan additional plans, such as higher on-net traffic plans, calls to other operators, flat rate text messages or data download packages, depending on their individual preferences. As a result, Telefonica Moviles Venezuela's customer base stood at over 10.4 million (+18.2% year-on-year) at the end of 2007, recording net adds of over 1.6 million new lines in the year. Since the GSM network was launched at the beginning of the year, GSM gross adds have accounted for 61% of the total and GSM customers made up over 35% of the total cellular customer base at December 2007. This rapid migration of the customer base to GSM technology is behind the 0.6 percentage point increase in churn to 2.6% in the fourth quarter of 2007 vs. the fourth quarter of 2006. Revenues in 2007 totalled 2,392 million euros (+27.8% vs. 2006 in local currency), driven by higher growth in service revenues (+27.1% year-on-year) than in the customer base. It is noteworthy the 1.4% increase in ARPU, underpinned by the 4.1% growth in outgoing ARPU, which offsets the 34% cut in interconnection rates implemented last July. Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) reached 1,060 million euros in 2007, 42.0% higher than the 2006 figure in local currency, owing to growth in revenues and to lower unit costs for GSM handsets. This enabled the OIBDA margin to rise by 4.4 percentage points year-on-year to 44.3%. CapEx totalled 370 million euros in 2007 (232 million euros in 2006) as a result of the major investment in the roll-out of the GSM network and the acquisition of a licence to provide service on the 1900 MHz band for 88 million euros. CENTRAL AMERICA Telefonica Moviles de Centroamerica (Panama, Guatemala, El Salvador and Nicaragua) substantially stepped up its commercial activity in 2007 compared to 2006, once again especially in Guatemala. At the end of 2007, estimated penetration of the Central American market stood at 69% (up 23 percentage points on 2006). Against this backdrop, Telefonica Moviles de Centroamerica's customer base rose 37.8% year-on-year to 5.3 million (268,186 fixed wireless and 381,230 contract customers). Growth was fuelled by the effectiveness of commercial campaigns carried out throughout the year, focused on traffic promotions and flat tariff plans (with a very competitive average charge per minute) that increase usage. Also, the Christmas campaigns and Mother's Day campaign (in Panama) drove a 25.0% year-on-year increase in gross adds in the fourth quarter. As a result, net adds in the fourth quarter stood at 400,681 customers, up 51.4% on the same quarter in 2006. Net adds in 2007 stood at 1,448,530. At the operating level, traffic growth was once again robust, especially outgoing, buoyed by the promotional plan which encourages prepay usage and the application of a very economical flat-rate tariff for customers. Consequently, outgoing MoU increased by 18.5% year-on-year in 2007 to 86 minutes. As a result of the company's healthy commercial performance, revenues in 2007 totalled 585 million euros, up 15.9% year-on-year in constant terms. Service revenues (up 10.3% compared to. the fourth quarter of 2006) continued to follow the positive trend marked in previous quarters, growing by 16.9% in constant currency on. 2006. This strong performance of service revenues in 2007 was chiefly underpinned by higher outgoing revenues (+28.9% in constant terms on 2006), which in turn were buoyed by the robust growth in on-net traffic (+76.3% compared to the same period in 2006). Despite the increase in commercial activity, Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) reached 236 million euros in 2007, a 26.7% year-on-year increase in constant terms. The OIBDA margin stood at 40.3% in 2007, an improvement of 3.5 percentage points from 2006. In 2007, CapEx totalled 133 million euros, a 35.0% year-on-year increase in constant currency. The bulk of this investment was allocated to boosting the capacity and coverage of the region's wireless network. ECUADOR The Ecuadorian cellular market experienced strong growth in 2007, with an estimated penetration of 70% by the end of the year, 9 percentage points higher than a year earlier. Telefonica Moviles Ecuador's customer base at the end of December 2007 stood at 2.6 million. Of this number, 70.3% were GSM customers (+18.8 percentage points on 2006). Especially noteworthy is the sharp growth in the number of customers on the 'movistar tariff' and 'multicolour' (preferential tariffs for on-net and off-net calls respectively), which totalled around one million in December 2007 (a ten-fold increase on the beginning of the year). Revenues at December 2007 stood at 291 million euros, up 9.5% in local currency compared to 2006. Service revenues rose 0.2% in local currency year-on-year, showing a shift in the previous trend (14.1% growth in the fourth quarter of 2007 compared to the year-on-year fall of 3.9% reported in September 2007) largely attributable to the improvement in outgoing revenues in the contract segment (+8.8% on 2006). Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) rose 24.8% year-on-year in local currency to 73 million euros in 2007. The 2007 OIBDA margin stood at 25.1%, 3.1 percentage points higher than in 2006. CapEx in 2007 totalled 60 million euros, up 36.8% in local currency compared to the previous year in order to service the sharp increase in traffic being carried by the operator. TELEFONICA INTERNATIONAL WHOLESALE SERVICES Telefonica International Wholesale Services (TIWS) again put in a strong performance in the fourth quarter, reporting significant growth in its key operating and financial figures in the year. Revenues in 2007 totalled 275 million euros, a year-on-year increase of 22.4% in constant euros. Of the company's main business lines, International IP capacity revenues grew 18.0% year-on-year in constant euros, underpinned by the growth of Telefonica Group's broadband business in the region, to 137 million euros (50% of TIWS' total revenues). Revenues from the sale of international bandwidth capacity also grew sharply (+46.5% in constant euros), VPNs (+32.1%) and satellite services (+27.3%). The growth in revenues pushed up Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) to 88 million euros (+13.9% in constant euros); the OIBDA margin stood at 31.9%.
