(4) Net debt defined as short-term liabilities plus long-term debt, less cash and equivalents.

 

Highlights

Increase of Funds for Share Repurchase: On November 28, 2005 TELMEX's Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting resolved to increase the amount of funds that can be allocated to purchase the Company's own shares by 10 billion pesos. At that date, the balance was approximately 10.149 billion pesos.

4.5 billion pesos Senior Notes: In January 2006 TELMEX sold 4.5 billion pesos of 10-year, 8.75% Senior Notes due 2016 abroad. Approximately 62% of the Senior Notes were purchased by Mexican institutions. The Senior Notes were rated BBB+ by Standard & Poor's and A2 by Moody's.

Payment of Outstanding Balance of Senior Notes due 2006 In January 2006 the outstanding balance of the 1.5 billion dollars Senior Notes due 2006 was paid for the amount of 1.068 billion dollars

 

Consolidated Income Statements

The analysis presented here includes the results of the subsidiaries in Latin America, including Embratel in the fourth quarter of 2004 and 2005.

Revenues: In the fourth quarter, revenues from Teléfonos de México and its subsidiaries in Mexico and Latin America totaled 41,335 million pesos, a decrease of 2.6% compared with the same period of 2004 mainly due to the decrease of calling party pays, measured service and international long distance revenues. Of total consolidated revenues, voice revenues represented 75.4% and data transmission revenues represented 18.6%. For the twelve months, consolidated revenues totaled 162,948 million pesos, an increase of 12.6% compared with the same period of last year due to the incorporation of the subsidiaries in Latin America, mainly Embratel since August 2004.

Costs and expenses: Costs and expenses in the fourth quarter totaled 28,906 million pesos, 3.7% lower than the same period of the previous year. For the full year, costs and expenses increased 14.3% totaling 114,254 million pesos as result of the consolidation of the subsidiaries in Latin America.

EBITDA (1) and operating income: EBITDA (1) totaled 18,332 million pesos in the fourth quarter, 1.8% lower than the same period of 2004, producing an EBITDA margin of 44.3%. Operating income totaled 12,429 million pesos, at a similar level of the previous year, and the margin was 30.1% in the quarter. For the twelve months, EBITDA (1) and operating income were 73,111 and 48,694 million pesos, producing margins of 44.9% and 29.9%, respectively.

Comprehensive financing cost: Comprehensive financing cost was 2,040 million pesos in the quarter. This result was due to a net exchange loss of 1,607 million pesos from hedges that eliminated the exchange risk of 88.5% of total debt, to a net charge of 1,299 million pesos for interest rate swaps that have allowed that 68.7% of consolidated debt to have a fixed rate, and accrued interest, and also to a gain of 866 million pesos in the monetary position. For the full year, comprehensive financing cost was 5,336 million pesos. The net interest rate in pesos was 7.7%.

Majority net income: Majority net income totaled 7,780 million pesos in the fourth quarter, 27.8% lower than the same period of the previous year mainly due to higher comprehensive financing cost. For the twelve months, majority net income totaled 28,180 million pesos, 0.8% lower than last year. Earnings per share for the fourth quarter, based on the number of shares outstanding at December 31, 2005 (22,045,082,270 shares), were 0.35 pesos compared with 0.46 pesos per share in the same period a year ago, and earnings per ADR were 0.66 dollars compared with 0.78 dollars per ADR in last year's fourth quarter.

 

 

Investments: In 2005, consolidated investments totaled 2.109 billion dollars. In Mexico, 1.382 billion dollars were invested, of which 51.9% was used to develop and expand the platform for new generation services and services for access to the data network, 40.3% for the expansion, maintenance and support of the telephone plant and 7.8% for social telephony. In Embratel, investments totaled 593 million dollars, of which 20.6% were used for access infrastructure and local services, 27.1% in data and Internet services, 5.6% in network infrastructure, 26.5% in two satellites to replace the equipment scheduled to be removed from service in 2006 and 2007 and 20.2% on other items. In the rest of the operations in Latin America, 134 million dollars were used for the expansion and support of the infrastructure of the various companies.

Repurchase of shares

During the quarter, the company used 5,856 million pesos to repurchase 495,499,300 of its own shares.

 

Debt: Gross total debt rose to the equivalent of 8.492 billion dollars compared with 7.993 billion dollars at December 31, 2004. The net increase of 499 million dollars or 6.2% primarily relates to the placement of Senior Notes for 1.750 billion dollars, the repurchase of 432 million dollars of the 1.5 billion dollars Senior Notes that matured in January 2006 and prepayments of approximately 700 million dollars of Embratel's debt. Of total gross debt, 16% is short-term, 90.8% is in foreign currency (11.5% considering currency hedges) and 51.2% carries a fixed rate (68.7% considering interest rate swaps). At December 31, 2005 TELMEX carried out interest rate swaps for 15,900 million pesos with a fixed average rate of 9% at an average term of 7 years, and currency hedges for 6.730 billion dollars, of which 93.9% is related to hedges of dollars to pesos and the rest to hedges of dollars to reais. At year-end, the average exchange rate for hedges was 11.09 pesos per dollar and 2.58 reais per dollar, and 67% of total hedges have a term of more than 12 months.

 

At December 31, 2005 the company's consolidated net debt (4) increased the equivalent of 692 million dollars to a total of 6.320 billion dollars.

1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies

 

I. Description of the Business

 

Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V. and its subsidiaries (collectively "the Company" or "TELMEX") provide telecommunications services, primarily in Mexico. However, as a result of a number of business acquisitions throughout Latin America, starting in 2004, the Company also provides its services in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Peru.

 

TELMEX obtains its revenues primarily from telecommunications services, including, among others, domestic and international long-distance and local telephone services, data transmission to corporate networks and internet services, and the interconnection of the subscribers with cellular networks, as well as the interconnection of domestic long-distance operators', cellular telephone companies' and local service operators' networks with the TELMEX local network. The Company also obtains revenues from other activities related to its telephone operations, such as the sale of advertising in the published telephone directory and the sale of telephone equipment.

 

An analysis of the principal subsidiaries and affiliated companies of TELMEX at December 31, 2005 and 2004 is as follows:

The amended Mexican government concession under which TELMEX operates was signed on August 10, 1990. The concession runs through the year 2026, but it may be renewed for an additional period of fifteen years. The concession defines, among other things, the quality standards for telephone service and establishes the basis for regulating rates.

 

Under this concession, the Company's basic telephone service rates are subject to a ceiling determined by the Federal Telecommunications Commission (COFETEL). During the last five years, TELMEX management decided not to raise its rates for basic services.

 

Empresa Brasileira de Telecomunicações S.A. (Embratel) provides domestic and international long-distance services, data transmission, among other services and Star One S.A. (Star One), a subsidiary of Embratel, provides satellite services. Both companies operate under two separate concessions granted by the Brazilian federal government via the Brazilian Telecommunications Agency (ANATEL). The concession for domestic and international long-distance services is in force through December 31, 2025 and may be renewed upon expiration. The concession for satellite use is in force through December 31, 2020 and may be renewed upon expiration.

 

The rest of the countries operate under concessions and government licenses.

 

II. Significant Accounting Policies

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in Mexico. The significant accounting policies and practices followed in the preparation of the financial statements are described below:

1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

a) Consolidation and basis of translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V. and its subsidiaries. All the companies operate in the telecommunications sector or they provide services to companies operating in this sector.

 

The results of operations of acquired subsidiaries and affiliate were included in the Company's financial statements as of the month following the acquisition

 

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Minority interest refers to certain foreign subsidiaries in which the Company does not hold all of the shares.

 

The financial statements of the subsidiaries located abroad were translated into Mexican pesos, as follows:

 

The financial statements as reported by the subsidiaries abroad were adjusted to conform to accounting principles generally accepted in Mexico.

 

All balance sheet amounts, except for stockholders' equity, were translated at the prevailing exchange rate at year-end; stockholders' equity accounts were translated at the prevailing exchange rate at the time capital contributions were made and earnings were generated. The statement of income amounts were translated at the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. The translation into Mexican pesos is carried out after the related balances or transactions have been restated based on the inflation rate of the country in which the subsidiary operates.

 

Exchange differences and the monetary position effect derived from intercompany monetary items were not eliminated from the consolidated statements of income.

 

Translation differences are included in the caption Effect of translation of foreign entities and are included in stockholders' equity as part of the caption Other comprehensive income items.

 

The financial statements at December 31, 2004 of the subsidiaries abroad were restated to constant pesos as of December 31, 2005 based on the inflation rate in Mexico. The effect of inflation and exchange differences were immaterial.

1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

b) Recognition of revenues

 

Revenues are recognized at the time services are provided and are subject to management's estimates at the date of the financial statements. Revenues from the sale of prepaid telephone service cards are recognized based on an estimate of the usage of time covered by the prepaid card.

 

Local service revenues are derived from new-line installation charges, monthly service fees, measured usage charges based on the number of calls made, and other service charges to subscribers. Local service revenues also include measured usage charges based on the number of minutes in the case of prepayment plans.

 

Revenues from domestic and international long-distance telephone services are determined on the basis of the duration of the calls and the type of service used. All these services are billed monthly, based on the rates authorized by the relevant regulatory bodies of each country. International long-distance service revenues also include the revenues earned under agreements with foreign telephone service providers or operators for the use of facilities in interconnecting international calls. These agreements specify the rates for the use of such international interconnecting facilities.

 

Revenues form prepaid internet plans are recorded as the service is provided.

 

c) Recognition of the effects of inflation on financial information

 

The Company recognizes the effects of inflation on financial information. Consequently, the amounts shown in the accompanying financial statements and in these notes are expressed in thousands of Mexican pesos with purchasing power at December 31, 2005. The restatement factor applied to the financial statements at December 31, 2004 as originally issued, was 1.0333, which represents the annual rate of inflation for the period from January through December 31, 2005, as determined based on the Mexican National Consumer Price Index (NCPI) published by Banco de México (the central bank).

 

Plant, property and equipment and construction in progress were restated as described in Note 4. Telephone plant and equipment are mainly depreciated using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the related assets (see Note 4c).

 

Inventories for the operation of the telephone plant are valued at average cost and are restated on the basis of specific indexes. The stated value of inventories is similar to replacement value, not in excess of market.

 

Other non-monetary assets were restated using adjustment factors based on the inflation rate of each country.

1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Capital stock, premium on sale of shares, retained earnings and other accumulated comprehensive income items were restated using adjustment factors obtained from the NCPI.

 

The deficit from restatement of stockholders' equity consists of the accumulated monetary position loss at the time the provisions of Bulletin B-10 were first applied, which was Ps. 14,044,319, and of the result from holding non-monetary assets, which represents the difference between restatement by the specific indexation method and restatement based on the NCPI. This item is included in stockholders' equity as part of the caption Other comprehensive income items.

 

The net monetary gain of each year is included in the statement of income as a part of the comprehensive financing cost. The net monetary gain represents the effect of inflation on monetary assets and liabilities.

 

The statement of changes in financial position is prepared in conformity with Mexican accounting Bulletin B-12, Statement of Changes in the Financial Position, based on financial statements expressed in constant pesos. Bulletin B-12 identifies the source and application of resources representing differences between beginning and ending financial statement balances in constant Mexican pesos. In conformity with this bulletin, monetary a foreign exchange gains and losses are not treated as resources provided by operating activities.

 

d) Cash equivalents, marketable securities and instruments available for sale

 

Cash equivalents consist basically by time deposits in financial institutions with original maturities of 90 days or less.

In April 2004, the Mexican Institute of Public Accountants (MIPA) issued amendments to Bulletin C-2, Financial Instruments. The adoption of Bulletin C-2 is compulsory for fiscal years beginning on January 1, 2005, although earlier adoption is recommended. Such amendments establish that, unlike the previous Bulletin C-2, changes in the fair value of instruments classified as available-for-sale are to be disclosed in stockholders' equity.

 

The Company adopted the provisions of this new accounting pronouncement in 2004, which gave rise to a charge to stockholders' equity of Ps. 1,141,668 in the caption Other accumulated comprehensive income items.

 

Marketable securities are represented by equity securities and corporate bonds for trading; instruments available for sale are represented by equity securities (see Note 2). Both are stated at market value. Changes in the fair value of marketable securities are recognized in results of operations.

1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

e) Allowance for doubtful accounts

 

Company policy is to provide for doubtful accounts on the balance of accounts receivable more than 90 days old.

 

f) Equity investment in affiliates

 

The investment in shares of affiliates is valued using the equity method. This accounting method consists basically of recognizing the investor's equity interest in the results of operations and in the stockholders' equity of investees at the time such results are determined (see Note 6).

 

g) Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price and the fair value of the net assets of subsidiaries and affiliates acquired at purchase date. As of January 1, 2005, the date on which Bulletin B-7 went into force, goodwill is no longer amortized, but rather is subject to periodic impairment valuations and adjustments. Through December 31, 2004, goodwill was amortized using the straight-line method over periods of 5 to 20 years (see paragraph s below).

 

h) Licenses

 

TELMEX records licenses at acquisition cost and restates them based on the inflation rate of each country. Licenses are amortized in conformity with the terms of each over periods of 5 to 29 years.

 

i) Impairment of assets

 

Effective January 1, 2004, the Company adopted the requirements of Mexican accounting Bulletin C-15, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, issued by the MIPA in March 2003.

 

Bulletin C-15 establishes that if there are any indications of impairment in the value of long-lived assets, the related loss should be determined based on the recovery value of the related asset, which is defined as the difference between the asset's net selling price and its value in use computed based on discounted cash flow. An impairment loss is recognized if the net carrying amount of the asset exceeds the recovery value.

 

The application of this new pronouncement had no material effect on the Company's results of operations or on its financial position.

j) Exchange differences

 

Transactions in foreign currency are recorded at the prevailing exchange rate on the day of the related transactions. Foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are translated at the prevailing exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences are charged or credited to income.

 

k) Labor obligations

 

Pension, seniority premium, medical assistance plan costs and termination payments are recognized periodically during the years of service of personnel, based on actuarial computations made by independent actuaries, using the projected unit-credit method (see Note 7). Through December 31, 2004, termination payments were charged to results of operations, if and when the expense was incurred (see paragraph s below).

 

l) Liability provisions

 

Liability provisions are recognized whenever (i) the Company has current obligations (legal or assumed) derived from past events, (ii) the liability will most likely give rise to a future cash disbursement for its settlement and (iii) the liability can be reasonably estimated.

 

When the effect of the time value of money is material, provision amounts are determined as the present value of the expected disbursements to settle the obligation. The discount rate is determined on a pre-tax basis and reflects current market conditions at the balance sheet date and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision is recognized as a financial expense.

 

Contingent liabilities are recognized only when they will most likely give rise to a future cash disbursement for their settlement. Also, commitments are only recognized when they will generate a loss.

 

m) Income tax and employee profit sharing

Deferred taxes are determined using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on all temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, applying the enacted income tax rate at the date of the financial statements, or the enacted income tax rate that will be in effect at the time the temporary differences giving rise to deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.

The Company evaluates periodically the possibility of recovering deferred tax assets and, if necessary, creates a valuation allowance for those assets that are unlikely to be recovered.

Employee profit sharing is recognized only on temporary items considered non-recurring with a known turnaround time.

1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

n) Comprehensive income

 

In conformity with Mexican accounting Bulletin B-4, Comprehensive Income, issued by the MIPA, comprehensive income consists of current year net income plus the effects of deferred taxes, the translation of financial statements of foreign entities, minority interest, the result from holding non-monetary assets, the changes in the fair value of instruments classified as available for sale and the effect of the swap valuation applied directly to stockholders' equity.

o) Earnings per share

 

The Company determined earnings per share by dividing majority net income by the weighted average number of shares issued and outstanding during the period. The diluted earnings per share was determined by adjusting earnings per share for the effect of the shares that may be delivered (potentially dilutive shares) (see Note 15), as specified in Mexican accounting Bulletin B-14, Earnings per share.

 

p) Use of estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions in certain areas. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

q) Concentration of risk

 

The Company invests a portion of its surplus cash in time deposits in financial institutions with strong credit ratings. TELMEX does not believe it has significant concentrations of credit risks in its accounts receivable, as it has a broad customer base that is geographically diverse.

 

r) Segment information

 

Segment information is prepared based on information used by the Company in its decision making processes based on the geographical areas in which TELMEX operates, in conformity with the requirements of Mexican accounting Bulletin B-5, Financial Information by Segment, issued by the MIPA (see Note 18).

1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

s) New accounting pronouncements

 

The following new pronouncements entered into force in 2005:

Business acquisitions

 

In May 2004, the MIPA issued Mexican accounting Bulletin B-7, Business Acquisitions. The adopotion of Bulletin B-7 is compulsory for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2005. Bulletin B-7 addresses the financial accounting and reporting for business and entity acquisitions and requires that all business combinations be accounted for using only the purchase method Bulletin B-7 also eliminates the amortization goodwill and provides specific rules related to the acquisition of minority interest and to the transfer of net assets or exchange of equity interests between entities under common control.

 

The adoption of this new accounting pronouncement gave rise to a decrease of approximately Ps. 191,000 in the Company's operating expenses for 2005, due to the proscription of the amortization of goodwill, and the benefit due to the reversal of negative goodwill of Ps. 42,427 derived from AT&T shares acquired in 2004. Should the Company have adopted this new accounting pronouncement in 2004, net income for such period would have increased by Ps. 158,640.

Derivative instruments and hedging activities

 

To protect itself against fluctuations in interest and exchange rates, the Company uses derivatives that have been classified as hedging derivatives at fair value (forwards) and cash flow hedges (interest-rate swaps). Through December 31, 2004, gains or losses on such contracts were charged or credited to income as incurred, and presented net of the loss or gain being hedged.

 

As of January 1, 2005, due to the adoption of new Bulletin C-10, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, issued by the MIPA in April 2004, the Company modified its accounting policies for valuing and recognizing hedges. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of hedges are charged or credited to income in the period in which they are incurred, together with the gains or loss of the hedged asset or liability.

1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Derivative instruments and hedging activities (continued)

 

 

For cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the derivative's gain or loss is reported in Other accumulated comprehensive income items in stockholders' equity while the ineffective portion of the gain or loss is reported in net income. The effectiveness of the derivatives is determined at the time when they are defined as derivatives. Hedges are considered to be highly effective when in the initial evaluation and during the hedging period, the fair value or cash flows of the hedged item are offset on a period-by-period or cumulative basis, as preferred, and include in the hedging documentation the changes in the fair value or cash flows of the derivative itself by a range of 80% and 125%. The adoption of this new Bulletin gave rise to a credit to income of Ps. 125,872, and a credit to stockholders' equity of Ps. 315,408, both net of deferred taxes. Should the Company have adopted this new accounting pronouncement in 2004, considering that the criterion for the recording of hedges would have been met, the net income for such period would have decreased by Ps. 55,654.

Labor obligations

In January 2004, the MIPA issued the revised accounting Bulletin D-3, Labor Obligations. The revised bulletin establishes the overall rules for the valuation, presentation and disclosure of so-called "other post-retirement benefits and the reduction and early extinguishment of such benefits", as well as rules applicable to employee termination pay. The adoption of these new rules was compulsory for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2005. The adoption of this accounting pronouncement gave rise to an increase of Ps. 139,520 in the Company's operating expenses for 2005 (see Note 7).

The following pro forma financial data for 2004 is based on the Company's historical financial statements, adjusted to give effect to the new accounting pronouncements described above.

Chilesat (Chile)

In April 2004, TELMEX acquired in a private transaction a 40% interest in Chilesat Corp. S.A. (Chilesat) for Ps. 612,399 (USD 47 million). Chilesat provides telecommunications services primarily in Chile. Pursuant to a cash tender offer required by Chilean law, in June 2004 TELMEX purchased for Ps. 904,445 (USD 67 million) an additional 59.3% interest, increasing its ownership of Chilesat to 99.3%.

 

Techtel (Argentina)

 

In April 2004, Telmex acquired an 80% equity interest in Techtel LMDS Comunicaciones Interactivas, S.A. and Telstar (Techtel), which provides telecommunication services in Argentina and Uruguay. A 60% equity interest was acquired from América Móvil, S.A. de C.V. (América Móvil) for Ps. 872,994 (USD 75 million), and the remaining 20% equity interest was acquired from Intelec, S.A. for
Ps. 290,998 (USD 25 million). Since TELMEX and América Móvil are entities under common control, the excess of the cost over the book value was charged to stockholders' equity.

Metrored (Argentina)

 

In June 2004, TELMEX acquired most of the assets of Metrored, a company engaged in providing telecommunications services in Argentina. The purchase price was Ps. 140,051 (USD 12 million).

 

AT&T Latin America Corp. assets (Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Peru)

 

In February 2004, TELMEX acquired most of the assets of AT&T Latin America Corp., a company engaged in providing telecommunications services to companies in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Peru. The purchase price was Ps. 2,284,203 (USD 196.3 million).

 

Investments in 2005

 

Embrapar (Brazil)

 

From March through May 2005, TELMEX contributed Ps. 6,959,322 (USD 611.5 million) for the capital increase of its subsidiary Embrapar, increasing its ownership to 95.1% of the voting shares and 63.9% of total outstanding shares (90.3% and 33.6%, respectively, at December 31, 2004). Minority shareholders contributed Ps. 1,011,037 (USD 88 million) during the same period, giving rise to an increase in stockholders' equity.

6. Equity Investments (continued)

 

On October 24, 2005, TELMEX contributed all the capital stock of Telmex do Brasil Ltda. (Telmex do Brasil) to Embrapar and its 37.1% investment in the capital stock of Net, increasing its ownership in Embrapar to 97.3% of the voting shares and 72.3% of total outstanding shares. The transaction was carried through the merger of Atlantis Holdings do Brasil and Latam do Brasil Participações S.A.; such companies previously held the capital stock of Telmex do Brasil and Net, respectively. Such transaction gave rise to a favorable effect of Ps. 1,151,343, which was recognized in stockholders' equity, since it was generated between companies of the same group.

 

Primesys (Brazil)

 

In November 2005, Embratel purchased from Portugal Telecom do Brasil S.A. all the shares of Primesys Soluções Empresariais S.A (Primesys) for Ps. 1,148,453 (R$ 250.8 million). Primesys provides value-added services in Brazil, such as communication solutions and outsourcing.

 

Goodwill generated on the aforementioned acquisition is subject to change, since the Company has not concluded the determination of the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities.

 

Techtel (Argentina)

 

On June 23, 2005, TELMEX exercised its right to acquire from Intelec, S.A. additional equity interest of approximately 10% in Techtel for Ps. 165,964 (USD 15 million), increasing its equity interest to 93.4% (83.4% at December 31, 2004). On December 27, 2005, TELMEX acquired from Intelec the remaining 6.6% equity interest in Techtel for Ps. 108,426 (USD 10 million).

 

Such amounts were less than the book value of the shares acquired, giving rise to a charge of Ps. 274,390 to stockholders' equity.

Subsequent event

 

On April 3, 2006, TELMEX and América Móvil announced that through an equally-owned joint venture ("the joint venture") they have entered into an agreement with Verizon Communications, Inc. ("Verizon") to acquire Verizon's equity interest in Compañía Anónima Nacional Teléfonos de Venezuela (CANTV) for an aggregate purchase price of USD676.6 million in cash. The purchase price represents USD3.01 per ordinary CANTV share held by Verizon (or USD21.10 per CANTV American Depositary Share held by Verizon, each of which represents seven ordinary CANTV shares). The joint venture will acquire Verizon's equity stake in CANTV indirectly through the purchase of a Verizon subsidiary holding company that holds all the CANTV ordinary shares and American Depositary Shares (ADS's) owned by Verizon. Verizon's equity stake in CANTV represents approximately 28.51% of the outstanding capital stock of CANTV. CANTV is the leading provider of telecommunications services in Venezuela.

The purchase is subject to regulatory approvals and other conditions. As required by Venezuelan law, following the closing of the purchase of Verizon's equity interest in CANTV, the joint venture will, subject to receipt of regulatory approvals, offer to purchase the remaining outstanding shares of CANTV at the Bolivar equivalent, based on the Official Exchange Rate, of the price per share paid to Verizon and the ADS's at the same price per ADS paid to Verizon.

 

 

 

7. Labor Obligations

 

Mexico - Pensions and seniority premiums

 

Substantially all of the Company's employees are covered under defined benefits retirement and seniority premium plans.

 

Pension benefits are determined on the basis of compensations of employees in their final year of employment, their seniority, and their age at the time of retirement.

 

TELMEX has set up an irrevocable trust fund and adopted the policy of making annual contributions to such fund, which totaled Ps. 59,096 in 2005 and Ps 1,703,980 in 2004. These contributions are deductible for Mexican corporate income tax purposes.

 

The transition liability, past services and variances in assumptions are being amortized over a period of 12 years, which is the estimated average remaining working lifetime of Company employees.

 

The most important information related to labor obligations is as follows:

At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the market value of the trust fund for pensions and seniority premiums exceeded the current benefit obligation by Ps. 12,378,554 and
Ps. 8,938,898, respectively. In conformity with Mexican accounting Bulletin D-3, Labor Obligations, the balance sheets show a net projected asset of Ps. 22,477,390 and
Ps. 26,475,834 in 2005 and 2004, respectively

 

In 2005, the net actuarial gain of Ps.5,611,325 was derived primarily from an actuarial gain of Ps.9,271,116, due to the favorable effect on plan assets of the overall behavior of the Mexican Stock Exchange and the increase in fixed-yield interest rates, as well as an actuarial loss of Ps.3,659,791, attributable to the increase in the projected benefit obligation due primarily to the fact that: (i) the number of employees that retired exceeded estimates made at the beginning of the year, (ii) the real annual inflation was less than the estimate made at the beginning of the year (iii) the actual number of withdrawn retirees and active personnel was less than the estimate made at the beginning of the year.

 

In 2004, the net actuarial gain of Ps.1,746,512 was derived primarily from an actuarial gain of Ps.9,706,959, due to situations similar to those in 2005, as well as an actuarial loss of Ps.7,960,447, attributable to the increase in the projected benefit obligation due primarily to the fact that: (i) the number of employees that retired exceeded estimates made at the beginning of the year, (ii) that the Company modified the estimated retirement age based on experience with retiring personnel (iii) and the Company updated the plans mortality rates.

In 2005, the net actuarial gain of Ps. 49,251 in the DBP and Ps. 233,481 in the MAP is due principally to the actuarial gain of Ps. 169,263 in DBP and Ps. 218,037 in PAM, respectively, and actuarial (losses) gains in plan assets of Ps. (120,012) and Ps. 15,444, respectively.

 

In 2004, the net actuarial loss of Ps. 103,669 in the DBP and Ps. 122,171 in the MAP is due principally to the actuarial loss of Ps. 185,465 and Ps. 123,889, respectively, attributable to the adjustments for past experience and plan changes and actuarial gains of Ps. 81,796 and Ps. 1,718, respectively, due to the favorable effect on plan assets of the general behavior of fixed-yield instruments.

 

At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the rates used in the actuarial study are as follows:

Defined contribution plan

 

The unfunded liability represents Embratel's obligation for those participants that migrated from DBP to the DCP. Such liability is being paid over a period of 20 years starting on January 1, 1999. Any unpaid balance is adjusted monthly based on portfolio asset returns at that date subject to an increase based on the Brazilian consumer price index plus 6 percentage points for the year. At December 31, 2005, the balance of the obligation of the DCP was Ps. 650,558 (Ps. 763,422 in 2004).

On October 20, 2005, TELMEX entered into an agreement to restructure the syndicated loan contracted on July 15, 2004 for Ps. 29,616,656 (USD 2,425 million), to improve the credit conditions and modify the total loan amount to Ps. 27,424,080 (USD 2,500 million) structured into two tranches. The first tranch is for Ps. 16,454,448 (USD 1,500 million) and has a four-year maturity. The second tranch is for Ps. 10,969,632

8. Long-term Debt (continued)

Prepaid debt:

 

In 2005, TELMEX prepaid penalty-free a portion of its debt with a number of financial institutions, excluding the repurchase of the bonds that mature in 2006, of approximately Ps. 202,011 (USD 18.3 million).

 

In 2004, TELMEX prepaid a portion of its debt with a number of financial institutions, excluding the repurchase of convertible bonds, of approximately Ps. 11,380,509
(USD 947.8 million).

In December 2004, Embratel concluded its prepayment of the debt included in its 2003 refinancing program. During the second half of 2004, Embratel repaid approximately
Ps. 6,543,626 (USD 558 million), thus settling loans bearing annual interest at the LIBOR plus 4% and the ICD (interbank certificate of deposit) plus 4%.

A portion of the debt is also subject to early maturity or repurchase at the option of the holders in the event of change of control of the Company, as defined in the related instruments. The definition of change of control varies from instrument to instrument; however, no change in control shall be considered to have ocurred as long as Carso Global Telecom, S.A. de C.V. (Carso Global Telecom) (TELMEX' controlling company) or its current stockholders continue to hold the majority of the Company's voting shares.

Hedges

 

As part of its currency hedging strategy, the Company (excluding Embratel) uses derivatives to minimize the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on U.S. dollar denominated transactions. In 2005, the Company entered into short-term exchange hedges which, at December 31, 2005, cover liabilities of USD 6,320 million (USD 3,220 million in 2004). In 2005, the Company recognized a charge of Ps. 7,133,260 (charge of Ps. 516,318 in 2004) to results of operations for these hedges corresponding to exchange differences.

The subsidiary Embratel also uses hedging derivative instruments (foreign currency swaps and forwards) to minimize the effects of exchange rate fluctuations on the Brazilian real due to foreign currency denominated loans. At December 31, 2005, the Company paid liabilities of USD 410.3 million (USD 323.9 million). Under these contracts, Embratel recognized a charge of Ps. 684,789 in 2005 (charge of Ps. 793,385 in 2004) corresponding to exchange differences.

 

To offset its exposure to financial risks related to the variable-yield debt, the Company (excluding Embratel) entered into interest-rate swaps. Under these contracts, the Company agreed to receive 28-day "TIIE" interbank rate and the 182-day treasury certificate (CETES) rate and to pay fixed rates. The difference between the market interest rate and the interest-rate swaps was recorded in results of operations.

At December 31, 2004, the Company had interest-rate swaps for a total base amount of Ps. 12,390 million and USD 1,050 million. At December 31, 2005, the Company recognized a net expense for these swaps in comprehensive financing cost of Ps. 185,462 (Ps. 432,572 in 2004). In 2005, the Company also replaced some of its Mexican peso-denominated hedges, recognizing a charge to comprehensive financing cost of Ps. 291,815.

 

At December 31, 2005, the market value of the interest-rate swaps represents a financial liability for the Company (excluding Embratel) of Ps. 13,505, and the market value of the exchange rate hedges also represents a financial liability of Ps. 1,358,449.

c) At December 31, 2005 the Company has outstanding letters of credit for approximately Ps. 213,875 (Ps. 126,513 in 2004), issued to foreign suppliers for purchase of materials and supplies.

 

Contingencies Mexico

d) In February 1998, the Federal Commission of Economic Competition (COFECO) determined that Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V. has substantial power in what it referred to as five telecommunications markets so that, in conformity with Article 63 of the Federal Telecommunications Act, COFETEL may impose specific obligations with respect to rates charged and quality of services and information.

 

The Company's external lawyers who are handling this matter are of the opinion that this finding is unjustified. Consequently, Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V. filed an appeal in the Federal District Court and obtained protection and shelter under Mexican Federal law. In September 2004, COFECO handed down a new ruling supporting the findings with respect to the substantial power that Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V. exercises over five telecommunications markets. Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V. filed an appeal in the Federal District Court. In October 2004, such appeal was admitted by the court and the final ruling is still pending.

12. Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

 

As a result of the aforementioned, the COFECO has initiated other proceedings against Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V. that are also being appealed.

e) In December 1995, a competitor that provides cellular telephone services reported Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V. to the COFECO for alleged monopolistic practices and undue concentration.

In July 2001, the COFECO ruled that Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V. was responsible for monopolistic practices and undue concentration. Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V. filed an appeal for reconsideration against the ruling, but the appeal was declared unfounded and the ruling confirmed.

 

The respective defense against the confirmation of the ruling has been presented before the Federal Court of Justice for Tax and Administrative Matters.

f) The Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS) audited Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V. for the 1997-2001 period. At the conclusion of the audit, it was determined that Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V. owed a total of approximately Ps. 330,000 (historical amount) in taxes, fines, surcharges and restatements at July 2, 2003. Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V. filed an appeal before the Federal Court of Justice for Tax and Administrative Matters, and in accordance with Mexican laws, by means of a bank trust guaranteed payment of such tax liability through August 1, 2006. The Company's external lawyers who are handling this matter are of the opinion that although the Company's appeal is well founded, there is no guarantee that it will prevail.

 

Contingencies of Embratel, Star One and Vésper

 

Brazilian value-added goods and services tax (ICMS)

 

Embratel received assessments by the tax authorities related to the so-called Brazilian ICMS tax, related to international services and others, considered by Embratel as partially or entirely exempt or nontaxable for ICMS purposes and other tax assessments related to the use of ICMS tax credit allegedly undue by the tax authorities.. Amounts of approximately Ps. 1,722,000 are considered as probable losses in the cases and are duly provided for in the financial statements. Amounts considered as corresponding to claims in which the lawyers consider Embratel will prevail are approximately Ps. 8,082,000. Consequently, such amount has not been provided for in the financial statements.

12. Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

 

In 2005, certain contingencies of approximately Ps. 970,000 that had been considered as only probable losses began to be considered as probable by management due to certain partial unfavorable rulings, and reevaluations made by Embratel's legal advisors, who consequently recommended that the Company provided for a portion of such amount in the financial statements.

 

In July 2002, the subsidiary Star One received an assessment by the tax authorities in the state of Rio de Janeiro for payment of ICMS of approximately Ps. 1,080,000. This assessment refers to the ICMS tax on internet and satellite use. In March 2004, Star One was required to pay approximately Ps. 91,000 in the Brazilian Federal District for ICMS not paid on satellite use and other obligations. Based on management's and the lawyers' estimates, Star One faces little risk of losing the aforementioned suits and consequently, has not provided for such amounts in the financial statements.

 

The subsidiaries Vésper S.A. and Vésper Sao Paulo, S.A. received assessments related to ICMS of approximately Ps. 136,000, of which approximately Ps. 67,000 were provided for in the financial statements, since it is considered as a probable loss, and approximately Ps. 69,000 face little risk of loss and consequently, has not been provided for in the financial statements.

The Company's external lawyers who are handling this matter are of the opinion that although the Company's case is well founded, there is no guarantee that it will prevail.

 

Income tax on inbound international income

 

Based on its legal advisors' opinion, the subsidiary Embratel believes that the foreign operating income from telecommunications services (inbound traffic) is not subject to taxation. In connection with this matter, in March 1999, the Brazilian Federal Tax Agency (SRF) assessed the subsidiary in the amount of Ps. 1,314,000 for failing to pay the related income tax for years 1996 and 1997. In late April 1999, the subsidiary. Embratel appealed with the Taxpayers' Council against this decision, which is still pending.

 

In June 1999, the subsidiary Embratel was further assessed for nonpayment of income tax on net foreign source income for 1998 amounting to approximately Ps. 295,000.

 

Embratel filed two appeals against such rulings, the first with the administrative courts (there are two instances that normally confirm the administrative authorities' rulings), and the second with the legal courts (there are three instances, which are considered to more closely adhere to legal precedence).

12. Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

 

The first ruling of Ps. 295,000 was first appealed by Embratel with the administrative courts, and after receiving an unfavorable ruling, Embratel filed a lawsuit with the Supreme Court, whose ruling in the first instance was unfavorable. However, after further review, the court nullified the ruling and a new ruling was issued that declared the annulment of the contested ruling. The administrative authorities will most likely appeal in the third instance.

 

The second ruling of Ps. 1,314,000 is still in the administrative proceeding phase, and the two rulings issued thus far have confirmed the contested ruling; therefore, Embratel can proceed to initiate the corresponding suits in the legal courts.

 

The Company's external lawyers who are handling this matter are of the opinion that although the Company's case is well founded, there is no guarantee that it will prevail.

 

Brazilian social welfare tax on service exports (PIS)

 

In August 2001, Embratel received a tax claim from the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service (SRF) totaling approximately Ps. 728,000 for payment of the PIS prior to 1995, which had been offset in accordance with Brazilian tax law. Based on the facts and arguments provided, and also on the opinion of the Company's external lawyers, Embratel's management considers the probability of a loss in this case as remote. Accordingly, no provision was recorded in the financial statements for this matter. The Company's external lawyers who are handling this matter are of the opinion that although the Company's case is well founded, there is no guarantee that it will prevail.

 

Brazilian finance tax for service export security tax (COFINS)

 

In August 2001, Embratel also received a claim amounting approximately Ps. 1,565,000 related to the COFINS exemption on the exportation of telecommunication services for revenues through the end of 1999. According to management, there were several errors in the computation of this tax made by the government auditor and, consequently, such amount was later reduced to approximately Ps. 1,007,000. Embratel appealed the case in the highest administrative court and in July 2003, a ruling was issued requiring the claim to be returned to the first administrative level. A new decision was made by the first administrative level and the remaining restated amount is approximately Ps. 1,083,000. Embratel appealed to a higher administrative level which is still pending decision.

 

Based on the facts and arguments provided, and also on the opinion of the Company's external lawyers, Embratel's management considers the probability of a loss in this case as unlikely. Accordingly, no provision was recorded in the financial statements for this matter.

 

The Company's external lawyers who are handling this matter are of the opinion that although the Company's case is well founded, there is no guarantee that it will prevail.

Other tax contingencies

 

Embratel and Vesper still have other tax litigations related to the National Institute of Social Security (INSS), Social Contribution (CSLL) and Telecommunications Systems Universalization Fund (FUST), which could give rise to tax contingencies of which approximately Ps. 89,000 were provided for in the financial statements, since such amount is considered as probable losses and approximately Ps. 1,222,000 face little risk of loss and consequently, has not been provided for.

 

Disputes with third parties

 

Certain cases are in an advanced stage of the litigation process and, according to Embratel's external lawyers, the subsidiary stands a chance of losing at least some of the cases; consequently, Ps. 544,000 (restated amount) has been provided for in the financial statements for possible unfavorable rulings. According to the Company's external lawyers, although the Company's arguments in these cases are well-grounded, there is no guarantee of a favorable outcome.

 

Other civil and labor contingencies

 

There are other civil and labor litigations that could give rise to contingencies of which approximately Ps. 524,000 has been provided for in the financial statements, since such amount is considered as probable losses, and approximately Ps. 723,000 face little risk of loss and consequently, has not provided for. According to the Company's external lawyers, although the Company's arguments in these cases are well-grounded, there is no guarantee of a favorable outcome

In 2005, the Company acquired 1,577.6 million Series "L" shares for Ps. 17,214,267 (historical cost of Ps. 16,926,983) and 6.2 million Series "A" shares for Ps. 67,029 (historical cost of Ps. 65,761).

 

In 2004, the Company acquired 1,415.7 million Series "L" shares for Ps. 14,322,103 (historical cost of Ps. 13,482,173) and 3.4 million Series "A" shares for Ps. 34,136 (historical cost of Ps. 32,134).

 

c) In conformity with the Mexican Corporations Act, at least 5% of net income of the year must be appropriated to increase the legal reserve. This practice must be continued each year until the legal reserve reaches at least 20% of capital stock.

 

d) In 2004, as a result of the maturity of the convertible senior debentures, the Company issued 777.4 million Series "L" shares (see Note 8).

 

e) Earnings per share are obtained by dividing net income for the year by the average weighted number of shares issued and outstanding during the period. To determine the average weighted number of shares issued and outstanding, the shares held by the Company have been excluded from the computation.

 

The diluted earnings per share in 2004 were determined considering the effect of the shares that may be delivered (potentially dilutive shares) as a result of the convertible senior debentures described in Note 8 and of the stock options described in Note 17. The computation was made by deducting from net income for the year, the net comprehensive financing income, net of income tax and employee profit sharing, derived from the convertible debentures. The adjusted income was divided by the average weighted number of shares issued and outstanding, taking into account the number of potentially dilutive shares

a) The Ministry of Finance and Public Credit authorized TELMEX to consolidate the group tax returns effective January 1, 1995. The Instituto Tecnológico de Teléfonos de México, S.C. the Mexican subsidiaries acquired during the year and the foreign subsidiaries are excluded from this tax consolidation

 

On November 1, 2004, the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit authorized the transmission of the tax consolidation of Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V. to that of Carso Global Telecom, S.A. de C.V. (controlling company of TELMEX) staring in 2005 in conformity with the Mexican Income Tax Law. However, this does not result in the tax deconsolidation of Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V. or its subsidiaries, nor in their ceasing to consolidate for tax purposes.

 

b) The 1.8% asset tax, which is a minimum income tax, is computed on the average value of most assets net of certain liabilities. Since asset tax may be credited against income tax, the former is actually payable only to the extent that it exceeds income tax. Asset tax for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 was Ps. 1,101,155 and
Ps. 2,892,644, respectively. In both years, TELMEX credited against these amounts the corporate income tax paid in such years.

16. Income tax (continued)

In 2005, the Company began to recognize deferred employee profit sharing of the year, since as of 2006, companies will be permitted to deduct deferred employee profit sharing from the income tax base at the time employees are paid.

At December 31, 2005, the balance of the restated contributed capital account (CUCA) and the net tax profit account (CUFIN) was Ps. 27,646,937 and Ps. 52,735,503, respectively. These amounts are for Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V. computed on a stand-alone basis.

e) TELMEX is subject to payment of employee profit sharing in addition to its contractual compensations and benefits. In 2005 and 2004, employee profit sharing was computed at 10% of tax results, excluding the inflationary component and the restatement of depreciation expense.

 

 

17. Stock Option Plan

In September 2001, as approved by the stockholders in an ordinary meeting held on February 6, 2001, TELMEX established a stock option plan for its officers for up to 100 million Series "L" shares. From September 2001 through December 2004, 62,833,810 shares were exercised. Of the 100 million Series "L" shares approved by the stockholders, 37,166,190 had still not been exercised.

In a session of the Company's Evaluation and Compensation Committee held on February 8, 2005, the Series "L" stock option plan was revoked and the remaining unexercised shares were canceled.

TRANSACTIONS IN FOREIGN CURRENCY AND EXCHANGE OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FROM FOREIGN OPERATIONS

Judged information

Basis of translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries

 

The financial statements of the subsidiaries located abroad were translated into Mexican pesos, as follows:

The financial statements as reported by the subsidiaries abroad were adjusted to conform to accounting principles generally accepted in Mexico.

All balance sheet amounts, except for stockholders' equity, were translated at the prevailing exchange rate at year-end; stockholders' equity accounts were translated at the prevailing exchange rate at the time capital contributions were made and earnings were generated. The statement of income amounts were translated at the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. The translation into Mexican pesos is carried out after the related balances or transactions have been restated based on the inflation rate of the country in which the subsidiary operates.

Exchange differences and the monetary position effect derived from intercompany monetary items were not eliminated from the consolidated statements of income.

Translation differences are included in the caption Effect of translation of foreign entities and are included in stockholders' equity as part of the caption Other comprehensive income items.

The financial statements at December 31, 2004 of the subsidiaries abroad were restated to constant pesos as of December 31, 2005 based on the inflation rate in Mexico. The effect of inflation and exchange differences were immaterial.
