Highlights
Fourth Quarter 2008
(1) EBITDA: defined as operating income plus depreciation and amortization. Go to www.telmex.com in the Investor Relations section where you will find the reconciliation of EBITDA to operating income.
(2) One ADR represents 20 shares.
(3) Net debt is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities.
Operating Results
Lines in service and local traffic
At the end of the fourth quarter, including the effect of number portability that began in July 2008, the number of lines in service was 17.589 million, 83 thousand lower than third quarter 2008. The number of disconnections is occurring mainly as a result of the competition from fixed, mobile and Pay TV companies.
Of our lines in service, approximately 56.6% or 10.0 million are in areas that interest competitors and where they also have presence. However, 7.6 million lines are in areas that hold no interest to competitors. For the twelve months these lines generated revenues of approximately 19.823 billion pesos and an operating loss of 2.761 billion pesos.
Local traffic volume continues to be affected mainly by competition from local and cellular telephony and by managed networks, a trend that strengthens the data business although it adversely affects local traffic. During the fourth quarter, local traffic decreased 9.6% compared with the same period of 2007, with a total of 5.419 billion local calls.
Long distance
Form October to December, domestic long distance (DLD) traffic increased 7.6% compared with last year's fourth quarter, totaling 4.920 billion minutes, due to more package offerings that include DLD minutes and higher traffic from long distance operators, offset by the decrease in termination traffic with cellular operators.
In the fourth quarter, outgoing international long distance (ILD) traffic decreased 14.3% compared with last year's fourth quarter, totaling 420 million minutes. Incoming international long distance traffic increased 2.0% compared with the same period of the previous year, totaling 1.772 billion minutes. The incoming-outgoing ratio was 4.2x.
Interconnection
In the fourth quarter, interconnection traffic totaled 11.453 billion minutes, 0.2% lower than fourth quarter of 2007. Calling party pays traffic decreased 5.3% because of the increase of cellular services. Interconnection traffic with local, long distance and cellular telephony operators increased 1.4%.
Internet access
At TELMEX, we have the commitment of increasing broadband penetration to reduce the digital divide in the country. Between 2007 and 2008, the number of broadband Infinitum customers increased close to 175%, reaching 5.0 million broadband services, which has made Mexico one of the countries among the members of the OECD with the highest growth rates in this type of service (OECD-Broadband portal).
This growth has been mainly driven by the sale of more than 1.8 million computers since 1999 in instalments of up to 48 months. The main limitation for broadband growth is the lack of computers in Mexican homes since only 25.7% of them have a computer, significantly below the average of close to 66.3% of the countries that are members of the OECD. In 2009, TELMEX will continue with these initiatives.
TELMEX has driven penetration of multi-services packages in order to support the family economy for the different consumption profiles of our customers. At year-end 2008, there were 4.3 million packages. These packages offer access to broadband and different voice services with discounts of up to 42%. One example is the "Paquete Conectes" that for 389 pesos per month, VAT included ($338.3 pesos per month plus 15% VAT, equivalent to 24.2 dollars).
.
Financial Results
The following financial information for 2008 is presented in nominal pesos and the financial information for 2007 is expressed in constant pesos as of December 2007, according to Mexican Financial Reporting Standards.
Revenues: In the fourth quarter, revenues totaled 31 billion pesos, a decrease of 2.7% compared with the same period of the previous year. These results include decreases of 9.0% and 6.7% in local and long distance services, respectively, and 11.6% in interconnection revenues. The decrease in interconnection revenues reflected declines of 5.3% in traffic volume and 8.5% in the calling party pays rate. On the other hand, Internet access revenues were up 27.8%, corporate networks revenues increased 7.9%, and other revenues, which includes Tiendas TELMEX (TELMEX stores), were up 25.9%.
Costs and expenses: In the quarter, total costs and expenses were 21.715 billion pesos, a decrease of 3.0% compared with the fourth quarter of 2007. This decrease was mainly due to initiatives carried out to optimize resource use and the 9.7% decrease in the amount paid to cellular operators for calling party pays services, offset by higher charges related to the sale of computers and equipment for customers and cost increases for goods and services.
EBITDA (1) and operating income: EBITDA (1) totaled 13.776 billion pesos in the fourth quarter, a decrease of 2.7% compared with the same period of last year. The EBITDA margin was 44.5%. Operating income totaled 9.252 billion pesos in the fourth quarter and the operating margin was 29.9%.
Comprehensive financing cost: In the fourth quarter, comprehensive financing cost produced a charge of 3.808 billion pesos. This resulted from: i) a net interest charge of 2.171 billion pesos, 993 million pesos more than the charge registered in the same period of 2007, due to recognition of the market value of interest rate swaps; ii) a net exchange loss of 1.637 billion pesos from the fourth-quarter exchange rate depreciation of 2.7464 pesos per dollar, offset by 5.451 billion dollars in dollar-peso hedges, and iii) recognition of a decline in the monetary position of 1.037 billion pesos in 2007, an effect that is absent in 2008 under current accounting rules.
Majority income from continuing operations: In the fourth quarter, majority income from continuing operations totaled 2.978 billion pesos, 55.0% lower than the same period of the previous year. Earnings per share were 16 Mexican cents, a year-over-year decrease of 52.9%, and earnings per ADR (2) were 26 US cents, a decrease of 58.7% compared with the same period of 2007.
Investments: For 2008, capital expenditures (capex) were the equivalent of 879 million dollars, of which 76.1% was used for growth projects in the voice, data and transport infrastructure and 23.6% for operational support projects and operating needs.
Debt: Total debt at December 31 was the equivalent of 7.908 billion dollars, of which 78.6% is long-term. Of the total debt, 79.4% is in foreign currency, equal to 6.275 billion dollars. To minimize risks from variations in the exchange rate, we have dollar-peso hedges for 5.451 billion dollars with a weighted average exchange rate of approximately 11.0634 pesos per dollar. Of total debt, 36.5% has fixed rates. If 23.752 billion pesos and 100 million dollars of interest rate swaps at average interest rates of 8.19% and 4.47%, respectively, are included, the proportion of debt with fixed rates is 60.0%.
Total net debt (3) decreased during the last twelve months the equivalent of 464 million dollars, raising the total to 7.455 billion dollars. TELMEX has a solid and healthy financial structure that allows us to maintain state-of-the-art-technology and support the development of telecommunications in the country.
Repurchase of shares: During the fourth quarter, the company used 1.791 billion pesos to repurchase 146 million 860 thousand of its own shares.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
To the Shareholders of
Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related consolidated statements of income and consolidated changes in shareholders' equity for the years then ended, as well as the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2008 and the consolidated statement of changes in financial position for the year ended December 31, 2007. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in Mexico. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and are prepared in conformity with Mexican Financial Reporting Standards. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, at an extraordinary shareholders' meeting held on December 21, 2007, the shareholders of Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. approved the split-up of assets, liabilities and shareholders' equity of its subsidiaries with operations in Latin America, as well as its telephone directory business, for the incorporation of Telmex Internacional, S.A.B. de C.V. This split-up is presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. and subsidiaries at December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the consolidated results of their operations and consolidated changes in their shareholders' equity for the years then ended as well as their consolidated cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2008 and consolidated changes in their financial position for the year ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with Mexican Financial Reporting Standards.
2.
As discussed in Note 1 II. x) to the financial statements, as of January 1, 2008, the Company adopted the new Mexican Financial Reporting Standards B-10, Effects of Inflation; D-3, Employee Benefits; and B-2, Statement of Cash Flows, with the effects described therein.

1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies
I. Description of the Business
Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. and its subsidiaries (collectively the Company or TELMEX) provide telecommunications services, primarily in Mexico, including domestic and international long-distance and local telephone services, data access and transmission to corporate networks and internet services, the interconnection of subscribers with cellular networks (calling party pays), as well as the interconnection of domestic long-distance carriers', cellular telephone companies' and local service carriers' networks the TELMEX local network. TELMEX also obtains revenues from the sale of telephone equipment.
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. Among other important aspects, the concession stipulates the requirements to provide telephony services and establishes the basis for regulating rates.
The rates to be charged for basic telephone services are subject to a cap determined by the Federal Telecommunications Commission (COFETEL). During the last eight years, TELMEX management decided to not raise its rates for basic services.
TELMEX has concessions in Mexico to operate radio spectrum wave frequency bands to provide fixed wireless telephone services and to operate radio spectrum wave frequency bands for point-to-point and point-to-multipoint microwave communications.
The foreign subsidiary has licenses for use of point-to-point and point-to-multipoint links.
At an extraordinary meeting held on December 21, 2007, the shareholders of Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. approved the split-up of the Company's entities with operations in Latin America, as well as its Yellow Pages business. As a result of the split-up, Telmex Internacional, S.A.B. de C.V. (Telmex Internacional) was incorporated and to which the outstanding shares of Controladora Servicios de Telecomunicaciones, S.A. de C.V. (formerly the sub-holding company of TELMEX) were transferred (see Note 2 for additional information). The split-up was effective for accounting and tax purposes as of December 26, 2007, which was the date Telmex Internacional was legally incorporated and from which time the Company ceased to have control over the subsidiary mentioned above.
On March 17, 2009, TELMEX's Audit Committee and management authorized the issuance of the accompanying consolidated financial statements and these notes at December 31, 2008 and 2007. These financial statements also must be approved by the Company's Board of Directors and shareholders at their upcoming meetings.
1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
At December 31, 2008 and 2007, TELMEX's equity interest in its principal subsidiaries and affiliated companies is as follows:

II. Significant Accounting Policies and Practices
The principal accounting policies and practices followed by the Company in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements, in conformity with Mexican Financial Reporting Standards, are described below:
a) Consolidation and basis of translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries
i) Consolidation and equity method
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. and those of the subsidiaries over which the Company exercises significant control. All the companies operate in the telecommunications sector or provide services to companies operating in this sector.
All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. Minority interest refers to certain subsidiaries in which the Company does not hold 100% of the shares.
Equity investments in affiliated companies over which the Company exercises significant influence is valued using the equity method, which basically consists of recognizing TELMEX's proportional share in the net income or loss and the shareholders' equity of the investee (see Note 7).
1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
The results of operations of the subsidiaries and affiliates were included in TELMEX's financial statements as of the month following their acquisition.
ii) Translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries
The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries and affiliates are either consolidated or accounted for based on the equity method, as the case may be, once the financial statements have been adjusted to conform to Mexican Financial Reporting Standards in the corresponding local currency, and are then translated to the reporting currency.
All the monetary assets and liabilities of the affiliates and subsidiaries are translated to Mexican pesos at the prevailing exchange rate at year-end. Shareholders' equity accounts are translated at the prevailing exchange rate at the time capital contributions were made and earnings were generated. Revenues, costs and expenses are translated at the historical exchange rate. Translation differences are recorded in shareholders' equity in the line item "Effect of translation of foreign entities" under "Accumulated other comprehensive income items".
Through December 31, 2007, the financial statements as reported by the foreign subsidiaries were converted to conform to Mexican Financial Reporting Standards, in the local currency, and subsequently restated to constant pesos based on the inflation rate of the country in which the subsidiary operates. Under this method, all assets and liabilities were translated to Mexican pesos at the prevailing exchange rate at year-end. Shareholders' equity accounts were translated at the prevailing exchange rate at the time capital contributions were made and earnings were generated. Income statement amounts were translated to Mexican pesos at the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. Exchange differences and the monetary position effect resulting from intercompany monetary items were charged or credited to the consolidated statements of income. Translation differences resulting from the conversion process were recorded in shareholders' equity in the line item "Effect of translation of foreign entities" under "Accumulated other comprehensive income items".
b) Recognition of the effects of inflation on financial information
Mexican FRS B-10, Effects of Inflation, which became effective on January 1, 2008, requires that once it has been confirmed that the economic environment in which the Company operates has changed from inflationary to non-inflationary as of the beginning of the period, the Company should cease to recognize the effects of inflation. The Company currently operates in a non-inflationary economic environment because the cumulative inflation rate over the past three years was 11.56%.
However, even though the economic environment in 2007 qualified as being non-inflationary Mexican accounting Bulletin B-10, Accounting Recognition of the Effects of Inflation on Financial Information, was still effective. Accordingly the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 are presented in Mexican pesos with purchasing power at December 31, 2007, while the 2008 financial statements are expressed in nominal pesos, except for those non-monetary items that include inflation effects at December 31, 2007 and current in 2008 due to the movements during the year.
1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Capital stock, premium on sale of shares and retained earnings were restated for inflation through December 31, 2007 based on the Mexican National Consumer Price Index (NCPI).
Through December 31, 2007, the deficit from restatement of shareholders' equity consists of the accumulated monetary position loss at the time the provisions of Bulletin B-10 were first applied, which was Ps. 13,924,729, 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. At December 31, 2007, this item is included in shareholders' equity under the "Accumulated other comprehensive income items" caption. In conformity with Mexican FRS B-10, since it was not possible to identify the result from holding non-monetary assets with the items giving rise to them, the cumulative result from holding non-monetary assets, together with the initial effect from the adoption of Bulletin B-10, was reclassified to retained earnings.
The net monetary position gain shown in the 2007 income statement represents the effect of inflation on monetary assets and liabilities and is included as part of the caption Comprehensive result of financing.
The statement of changes in financial position for the year ended December 31, 2007 was prepared based on the financial statements expressed in constant Mexican pesos. The source and application of resources represent the differences between beginning and ending financial statement balances in constant Mexican pesos. Monetary and foreign exchange gains and losses are not considered as non-cash items not requiring the use of resources.
c) Recognition of revenues
Revenues are recognized at the time services are provided. Local service revenues are related to 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 the sale of prepaid telephone service cards are recognized based on an estimate of the usage of time covered by the prepaid card. Revenues from the sale of equipment are recorded when the product is delivered to the customer.
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. which are billed monthly based on the authorized rates. International long-distance and interconnection service revenues also include the revenues earned under agreements with foreign carriers for the use of the Company's facilities in interconnecting international calls. These services are regulated by agreements with these operator, in which the rates to be paid are defined.
1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
d) Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Mexican Financial Reporting Standards requires the use of estimates and assumptions in certain areas. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
e) Cash equivalents and marketable securities
Cash equivalents are represented principally by time deposits in financial institutions with maturities of less than 90 days.
Marketable securities are represented by equity securities and corporate bonds held for trading (see Note 3). These investments are recognized at market value, and changes in their market value are recognized in earnings.
f) Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities
The Company is exposed to interest rate and foreign currency risks, which are mitigated through a controlled risk management program that includes the use of derivative financial instruments. In recent years, the Company has contracted forwards to offset the short-term risk of exchange rate fluctuations. In 2008, since the market conditions were appropriate, cross-currency swaps have been used on a preferential basis, which has extended the term of the hedges. In order to reduce the risks due to fluctuations in interest rates, the Company utilizes interest-rate swaps, through which it either pays or receives the difference between the net amount of either paying or receiving a fixed interest rate and the cash flow from receiving or paying a floating interest rate, based on a notional amount denominated in Mexican pesos or U.S. dollars. Most of these derivative financial instruments qualify and have been designated as cash flow hedges.
The Company's policy includes: i) formal documentation of all hedging relationships between the hedging instrument and the hedged position; ii) the objectives for risk management; and iii) the strategy for conducting hedging transactions. This process takes into account the relationship between the cash flow of the derivatives with the cash flows of the corresponding assets and liabilities recognized in the balance sheet.
The effectiveness of the Company's derivatives used for hedging purposes is evaluated prior to their designation as hedges, as well as during the hedging period, which is performed at least quarterly based on recognized statistical techniques. Whenever it is determined that a derivative is not highly effective as a hedge or that the derivative ceases to be a highly effective hedge, the Company ceases to apply hedge accounting for the derivative on a prospective basis. During the year ended December 31, 2008, there were no gains or losses recognized due to changes in the accounting treatment for hedges.
1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Derivative financial instruments are recognized in the balance sheet at their fair values, which are obtained from the financial institutions with which the Company has entered into the related agreements. The Company's policy is to verify such fair values against valuations provided by an independent valuation broker contracted by the Company. The effective portion of the cash flow hedge's gain or loss is recognized in "Accumulated other comprehensive income item" in shareholders' equity, while the ineffective portion is recognized in current year earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not qualify as hedges are immediately recognized in earnings.
The change in fair value recognized in earnings related to derivatives that are accounted for as hedges is presented in the same income statement caption as the gain or loss of the hedged item.
g) Allowance for doubtful accounts
The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined based on the Company's experience, the aging of the balances and general economic trends, as well as an evaluation of accounts receivable in litigation. The allowance for doubtful accounts basically covers the balances of accounts receivable greater than 90 days old.
h) Inventories
Inventories for sale are valued at average cost and through December 31, 2007 they were restated based on inflation. The carrying value of inventories is not in excess of their net realizable value.
Inventories for the operation of the telephone plant are valued at average cost and through December 31, 2007 were restated on the basis of specific indexes. The carrying value of inventories is similar to replacement value, which is not in excess of their market value.
i) Plant, property and equipment
Through December 31, 2007, plant, property and equipment and construction in progress acquired abroad were restated based on the rate of inflation of the respective country of origin and the prevailing exchange rate at the balance sheet date (specific indexation factors) Plant, property and equipment of domestic origin were restated based on the NCPI.
Telephone plant and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the related assets (see Note 5b).
1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
When there are indicators of impairment in the value of long-lived assets, the related loss is determined based on the recovery values of the related assets, which is defined as the greater of the asset's net selling price and its value in use, which is computed based on discounted cash flows. When the net carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recovery value, the difference is recognized as an impairment loss. For the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, there were no indicators of impairment in the value of the Company's long-lived assets.
The Company has not capitalized any financing costs since it has no significant qualifying assets with prolonged acquisition periods.
j) Leases
When the risks and benefits inherent to the ownership of the leased asset remain mostly with the lessor, they are classified as operating leases and rent expense is charged to results of operations when incurred.
k) Licenses
TELMEX records licenses at acquisition cost and, through 2007, restated them based on the inflation rate of each country. The amortization period is based on the terms of the licenses, which range from 5 to 20 years.
l) Business acquisitions and goodwill
Acquisitions of businesses and affiliated companies are recorded using the purchase method. The acquisition of minority interest is considered a transaction between entities under common control and any difference between the purchase price and the book value of net assets acquired is recognized as an equity transaction.
Goodwill represents the difference between the acquisition cost and the fair value of the net assets acquired at the purchase date. Goodwill is not amortized; however, it is subject to an annual impairment evaluations, or whenever there are indicators of impairment, and adjusted for any impairment loss that may be determined.
Impairment losses are recognized when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its recovery value. TELMEX determines the recovery value of goodwill based on its perpetuity value, which is computed by dividing the average excess in the value in use of the cash generating unit where the intangible is identified, by the average of the appropriate discount rates used in the projection of the present value of cash flows from the cash generating unit.
1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
m) Accrued liabilities
Accrued liabilities are recognized whenever (i) the Company has current obligations (legal or assumed) resulting from a past event, (ii) when it is probable the obligation will give rise to a future cash disbursement for its settlement and (iii) the amount of the obligation can be reasonably estimated.
When the effect of the time value of money is significant, the amount of the liability is determined as the present value of the expected future disbursements to settle the obligation. The discount rate applied 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. When discounting is used, an increase in the liability is recognized as a finance expense.
Contingent liabilities are recognized only when it is probable they will give rise to a future cash disbursement for their settlement. Also, commitments are only recognized when they will generate a loss.
n) Labor obligations
The cost of pension, benefits, seniority premium and termination payments (severance) 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 11).
Actuarial (losses) gains are being amortized over a period of 12 years, which is the estimated average remaining working lifetime of Company employees, which is 12 years.
As of January 1, 2008, the transition liability for labor obligations and prior service costs at December 31, 2007 are being amortized over a maximum period of 5 years. Prior to December 31, 2007, such amounts were being amortized over the estimated average remaining working lifetime of Company employees (12 years).
o)Employee profit sharing
Current-year and deferred employee profit sharing expense is presented as an ordinary expense in the income statement rather than as part of taxes on profits.
Beginning January 1, 2008, in connection with the adoption of Mexican FRS D-3, Employee Benefits, the Company recognizes deferred employee profit sharing using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred profit sharing is computed by applying the 10% rate to all temporary differences between the values of all assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting purposes. The Company periodically evaluates the possibility of recovering deferred employee profit sharing assets and, if necessary, creates a valuation allowance for those assets that do not have a high probability of being realized (see Note 11).
1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Through December 31, 2007, deferred employee profit sharing was recognized only on temporary differences in the reconciliation of current year net income to taxable income for employee profit sharing purposes, only when there was no indication that the related liability or asset would not be realized in the future.
p) 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 valued at the prevailing exchange rate at the latest balance sheet date. Exchange differences from the transaction date to the time foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are settled , as well as those arising from the conversion of foreign currency denominated balances at the balance sheet date are charged or credited to results of operations.
See Note 12 for the Company's consolidated foreign currency position at the end of each year and the exchange rates used to translate foreign currency denominated balances.
q) Comprehensive income
Comprehensive income consists of current year net income, the effects of translation of the financial statements of foreign entities, the changes in minority interest, the changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges, the changes in the result from holding non-monetary assets and the effect of deferred taxes related to these items.
r) Taxes on profits
Beginning January 1, 2008, deferred taxes on profits are recognized using the asset and liability method established in Mexican FRS D-4, Taxes on Profits. Under this method, deferred taxes on profits are recognized on all differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, applying the enacted income tax rate effective as of the balance sheet date, or the enacted rate at the balance sheet date that will be in effect when the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.
Through December 31, 2007, the method mentioned in the preceding paragraph was applied only to the temporary differences between the values of all assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting purposes.
The Company periodically evaluates the possibility of recovering deferred tax assets and, if necessary, creates a valuation allowance for those assets that do not have a high probability of being realized.
1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
s) Statement of income presentation
Costs and expenses shown in the Company's income statement are presented on a combined basis between their nature and function, in accordance with industry practice since such classification allows for an appropriate evaluation of gross profit and operating margin.
The "Operating income" caption is shown in the income statement since it is an important indicator used for evaluating the Company's operating results.
An analysis of the Other expenses, net, caption for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 is as follows:
2008 |
2007 |
|
Current year employee profit sharing |
Ps. 2,548,762 |
Ps. 2,867,019 |

( 1,869,170) |
( 2,822,658) |
Other expenses, net |
Ps. 679,592 |
Ps. 44,361 |
As a result of a ruling in favor of the Company related to the deductibility for income tax purposes of employee profit sharing paid in 2004 and 2005, the "Other income" caption shown above for 2007 includes a non-recurring gain of Ps. 1,653,123.
t) Earnings per share
Earnings per share is determined by dividing majority net income from continuing operations, majority net income from discontinued operations and total majority net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the year. In determining the weighed-average number of shares outstanding during the year, shares repurchased by the Company have been excluded.
u) Concentration of risk
The main risks associated with the Company's financial instruments are cash flow risk, liquidity risk, market risk and credit risk. The Company performs sensitivity analyses to measure potential losses in its operating results based on a theoretical increase of 100 basis points in interest rates and a 10% change in exchange rates. The Board of Directors approves the risk management policies that are proposed by the Company's management.
Credit risk represents the potential loss from the failure of counterparties to completely comply with its contractual obligations. The Company is also exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates and exchange rates. In order to reduce the risks related to fluctuations in interest rates and exchange rates, the Company uses derivative financial instruments as hedges against its debt obligations.
1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, and debt and derivative financial instruments. The Company's policy is designed to not restrict its exposure to any one financial institution; therefore, the Company's financial instruments are maintained in different financial institutions located in different geographical areas.
The credit risk in accounts receivable is diversified, because the Company has a broad customer base that is geographically dispersed. The Company continuously evaluates the credit conditions of its customers and does not require collateral to guarantee collection of its accounts receivable. In the event the collection of accounts receivable deteriorates significantly, the Company's results of operations could be adversely affected.
v) Segments
Segment information is presented based on information used by the Company in its decision-making processes (see Note 17).
v) Reclassifications
Certain captions shown in the 2007 financial statements as originally issued have been reclassified for uniformity of presentation with the 2008 financial statements. The effects of these reclassifications were recognized retrospectively in the 2007 balance sheet, in conformity with Mexican FRS B-1, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.

x) New accounting pronouncements
I) Following is a discussion of the new accounting pronouncements issued by the Mexican Financial Reporting Standards Research and Development Board (Consejo Mexicano para la Investigación y Desarrollo de Normas de Información Financiera, A.C. or "CINIF") that became effective on January 1, 2008 and that affected TELMEX's accounting policies:
Mexican FRS B-2, Statement of Cash Flows
Mexican FRS B-2 replaced Mexican accounting Bulletin B-12, Statement of Changes in Financial Position. Accordingly, the statement of cash flows substituted the statement of changes in financial position. The main differences between both statements lie in the fact that the statement of cash flows shows the entity's cash inflows and outflows during the period, while the statement of changes in financial position shows the changes in the entity's financial structure. Also, the statement of cash flows presents first income before taxes on profits, followed by cash flows from operating activities, then cash flows from investing activities and finally cash flows from financing activities.
As required under the transitory paragraphs of Mexican FRS B-2, the statement of cash flows is presented for the year ended December 31, 2008, which was prepared using the indirect method; and a statement of changes in financial position is presented for the year ended December 31, 2007.
Mexican FRS B-10, Effects of Inflation
Mexican FRS B-10 superseded Mexican accounting Bulletin B-10, Accounting Recognition for the Effects of Inflation on Financial Information. Mexican FRS B-10 defines the two economic environments that will be the basis on which to determine whether or not entities must recognize the effects of inflation on their financial information: i) inflationary, when cumulative inflation in the preceding three fiscal years is equal to or greater than 26%; and ii) non-inflationary, when cumulative inflation for the preceding three fiscal years is less than the aforementioned 26%. This standard requires that the effects of inflation on financial information must be recognized only when entities operate in an inflationary environment. Mexican FRS B-10 abolishes the use of the specific-indexation method for the valuation of imported fixed assets and the replacement-cost method for the valuation of inventories. Consequently, the result from holding non-monetary assets included in the excess (deficit) from the restatement of shareholders' equity must be identified with the assets giving rise to them. When it is not possible to identify such assets, the cumulative result from holding non-monetary assets, together with the initial effect from the adoption of Bulletin B-10, is reclassified to retained earnings.
1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
The effect of the adoption of this standard on the Company's 2008 financial statements was to cease recognizing the effects of inflation on its financial information and to reclassify the total amount of the result from holding non-monetary assets, net of deferred taxes, and the accumulated monetary position loss to retained earnings.
Mexican FRS B-15, Foreign Currency Translation
Mexican FRS B-15 replaced the previous Mexican accounting Bulletin B-15, Transactions in Foreign Currency and Translation of Financial Statements of Foreign Operations, incorporating the concepts of recording currency, functional currency and reporting currency, and eliminates the concept of integrated foreign operations and foreign entity established in Mexican accounting Bulletin B-15. This standard also establishes new procedures for translating financial information of a company's foreign operations from its recording currency to its functional currency, and from the functional currency to the reporting currency.
The application of FRS B-15 is prospective; therefore, the financial statements from prior years have not been restated.
Mexican FRS D-3, Employee Benefits
Mexican FRS D-3, Employee Benefits, replaced Mexican accounting Bulleting D-3, Labor Obligations. The most significant changes contained in Mexican FRS D-3 are as follows: i) shorter periods for the amortization of unamortized items, with the option to credit or charge actuarial gains or losses directly to results of operations, as they are incurred; ii) elimination of the recognition of the additional minimum pension liability and the related recognition of an other intangible asset and comprehensive income item.
The scope of this standard includes the accounting treatment of employee profit sharing and requires the use of the asset and liability method in the computation of deferred taxes on profits to determine the deferred employee profit sharing asset or liability, as well as its effect on results of operations. This standard also establishes that the initial effect of recognizing deferred employee profit sharing is to be presented as an adjustment to retained earnings, unless it is related to other comprehensive income items not yet reclassified to income. Current-year and deferred employee profit sharing are recognized as an ordinary expense in the statement of income.
The application of this standard is prospective; therefore, the financial statements from prior years have not been restated. The effects of adopting Mexican FRS D-3 are disclosed in Note 11.
1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Mexican FRS D-4, Taxes on Profits
Mexican FRS D-4 replaced Mexican accounting Bulletin D-4, Accounting for Income Tax, Asset Tax and Employee Profit Sharing. The most significant changes included in this new standard with respect to Mexican accounting Bulletin D-4 are as follows: i) the concept of permanent differences is eliminated, since the use of the asset and liability method established in the new standard requires the recognition of deferred taxes on all differences in balance sheet accounts for financial and tax reporting purposes, regardless of whether they are permanent or temporary; ii) since current-year and deferred employee profit sharing is considered as an ordinary expense, it is excluded from this standard and is now addressed under Mexican FRS D-4; iii) asset tax is required to be recognized as a tax credit and, consequently, as a deferred income tax asset only in those cases in which there is certainty as to its future realization; and iv) the cumulative effect of adopting the prior Mexican accounting Bulletin D-4 must be reclassified to retained earnings, unless it is identified with items recognized in shareholders' equity that are included in Accumulated other comprehensive items not yet reclassified to income.
The Company has presented the cumulative effect of the initial adoption of Mexican accounting Bulletin D-4 in retained earnings. The application of FRS D-4 is prospective and so the financial statements of prior years presented for comparative purposes have not been restated.
II) Following is a discussion of the new accounting pronouncements that became effective on January 1, 2009, and that could affect TELMEX's accounting policies:
Mexican FRS B-8, Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements
In November 2008, the CINIF issued Mexican FRS B-8, which is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2009. Mexican FRS B-8 replaces Mexican accounting Bulletin B-8, Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements and the Valuation of Long-Term Equity Investments. Mexican FRS B-8 establishes the overall guidelines for preparing and presenting consolidated or combined financial statements, and transfers the guidance related to accounting for long-term equity investments to Mexican FRS C-7.
Unlike Mexican accounting Bulletin B-8, Mexican FRS B-8 does not require intermediary holding companies to present consolidated financial statements under certain circumstances. In such cases, the investments in subsidiaries of these intermediary holding companies are accounted for using the equity method.
T
his standard establishes that to determine the existence of control, the Company must consider any potential voting rights held that could be exercised or converted, regardless of management's intention and ability to exercise them.1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Also, unlike Bulletin B-8, this standard requires the financial statements of the consolidating entities to be prepared under the same Mexican FRS, eliminating the possibility to consolidate those entities that do not issue financial statements under Mexican FRS due to an obligation to present their financial statements under specific accounting standards.
This standard includes guidelines for the accounting treatment of special purpose entities and, upon adoption, abolishes the supplementary application of SIC 12, Consolidation - Special Purpose Entities. Mexican FRS B-8 establishes that specific purpose entities over which the Company exercises control must be consolidated.
Mexican FRS B-8, establishes that changes in equity interest that do not cause loss of control must be recognized as transactions between shareholders; therefore, any difference between the book value of the equity investment sold or acquired and the value of the consideration paid must be recognized in shareholders' equity.
T
his standard also establishes that the recognition of push-down adjustments must not be recognized in the financial statements of the subsidiary and provides no transitory guidance in this regard.
Mexican FRS C-7, Equity Investments in Affiliates and Other Long-term Equity Investments
In November 2008, the CINIF issued Mexican FRS C-7, which became effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2009. The purpose of this standard is to establish guidelines for the accounting recognition of investments in affiliated companies, as well as for the recognition of any other long-term equity investments through which the reporting entity does not have control, joint control or exercise significant influence.
Unlike Mexican accounting Bulletin B-8, this standard establishes that there is significant influence when 10% or more of the voting shares in an entity that is listed on a stock exchange, or when it holds 25% or more of the voting shares in an entity not listed on a stock exchange. Mexican FRS C-7 also provides the guidelines for determining the existence of significant influence in the case of special purpose entities (SPE).
In identifying the existence of significant influence, both Mexican FRS B-8 and this standard require consideration of any potential voting rights held by the entity that might be exercised or converted, regardless of management's actual intention and financial capacity to exercise such rights.
Investments in an affiliated company or an equity interest in an SPE over which the reporting entity exercises significant influence must be initially recognized at fair value, determined at the time of acquisition, and subsequently by applying the equity method of accounting. To apply the equity method, unlike Mexican accounting Bulletin B-8, the financial statements of the affiliated company must be prepared in conformity with Mexican Financial Reporting Standards.
1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
This standard also establishes the guidelines for the recognition of losses incurred by affiliated companies, since Mexican accounting Bulletin B-8 did not address this issue.
This standard establishes that the investment in affiliated companies must be tested for impairment when indicators of impairment exist, and modifies Mexican accounting Bulletin C-15, Impairment in the Value of Long-lived Assets, by establishing that the impairment of investments in affiliated companies must be presented as part of the caption Equity income of unconsolidated subsidiaries and affiliates.
Mexican FRS C-8, Intangible Assets
Mexican FRS C-8 was issued by the CINIF in December 2008 to replace Mexican accounting Bulletin C-8, Intangible Assets and will become effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2009.
Unlike Mexican accounting Bulletin C-8, this standard establishes that separability is not the only condition necessary to determine that an intangible asset is identifiable. Mexican FRS C-8 also provides additional guidance on the accounting recognition of intangible assets acquired through exchange transactions and eliminates the presumption that the useful life of an intangible asset could not exceed twenty years. Furthermore, the standard adds the requirement of an accelerated amortization period as a condition for impairment and modifies the definition of pre-operating costs.
Lastly, Mexican FRS C-8 establishes the accounting treatment for disposals of intangible assets resulting from sale, abandonment or exchange.
2. Discontinued Operations
On December 21, 2007, the shareholders of TELMEX approved the split-up of the Company's subsidiaries with operations in Latin American, as well as its Yellow Pages business. As a result of the split-up, Telmex Internacional, S.A.B. de C.V. (Telmex Internacional) was incorporated on December 26, 2007 and to which the outstanding shares of Controladora Servicios de Telecomunicaciones, S.A. de C.V. (formerly the sub-holding company of TELMEX) were transferred. The split-up was effective for legal, accounting and tax purposes as of December 26, 2007, on which date Telmex Internacional was legally incorporated as a separate Mexican company and from which time the Company ceased to have control over the subsidiary mentioned above.
At the same shareholders' meeting held on December 21, 2007, it was determined that the entities would adjust their shareholders' equity to recognize the treasury resources including cash and cash equivalents used in the purchase of the shares of TELMEX, until the date on which the shares of Telmex Internacional would to trade separately.
2. Discontinued Operations (continued)
The terms of the split-up established that neither TELMEX nor Telmex Internacional would hold shares of the other. At the time a result of the split-up, each TELMEX shareholder became an owner of the same number and class of shares in Telmex Internacional as they held in TELMEX. Consequently, both companies are currently controlled by the same group of shareholders.
From the date on which Telmex Internacional was incorporated until the date the shares of TELMEX and Telmex Internacional began to trade separately, TELMEX continued acquiring both its own shares and shares in Telmex Internacional.
The shares acquired by TELMEX in the name of Telmex Internacional amounted to Ps.3,571,744, which in conformity with the resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors was transferred to Telmex Internacional a s part of the split-up in cash and cash equivalents. Telmex Internacional then paid TELMEX for the value of the shares that TELMEX acquired in the name of Telmex Internacional, and the related amounts and treasury shares of both companies were adjusted accordingly.
The relationship between TELMEX and Telmex Internacional is limited to: i) ordinary commercial relationships, such as those related to international traffic termination services and the preparation and distribution of telephone directories; ii) agreements relating to the execution of the split-up; and iii) certain temporary agreements that will remain in force until Telmex International has developed its own administrative structure.
In these financial statements, all income and expenses of the Telmex Internacional are presented in the statement of income under the caption Income from discontinued operations, net of income tax. The amounts included in of the 2007 financial statements prior to the split-up and their corresponding notes were restated to present only the assets and liabilities and revenues, costs and expenses of the continuing operations of TELMEX, excluding the amounts from the discontinued operations.
All the assets and liabilities of the split-up operations were transferred to Telmex Internacional at book value. The amount of shareholders' equity transferred to Telmex Internacional in the split-up represents the difference between the assets and liabilities that were transferred and was recognized as a reduction in the shareholders' equity of TELMEX at the date of the split-up.
2. Discontinued Operations (continued)
A summary of the statement of income of the split-up operations for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2007, is as follows:

To reduce the risks related to fluctuations in exchange rates and interest rates, the Company uses derivative financial instruments as hedges associated with its debt. The derivative financial instruments principally used by the Company are as follows:
Cross currency swaps
At December 31, 2008, the Company has cross currency swaps that hedge foreign currency denominated liabilities of Ps. 73,799,967 (USD 5,451 million) (Ps. 37,162,404 or USD 3,420 million in 2007). These cross currency swaps hedge the exchange rate and interest rate risks associated with bonds that mature in 2010 and 2015 in the total amount of USD 1,750 million and bank loans that mature in 2009 and 2018 in the total amount of USD 3,701 million. These agreements allow TELMEX to fix the parity of such debt at a weighted-average exchange rate of Ps. 10.6889 per U.S. dollar, as well as establish a fixed interest rate of 7.52% for the bonds maturing in 2010 and 8.57% for the bonds maturing in 2015, and a fixed rate equal to the average 28-day Mexican Weighted Interbank Rate (TIIE), less a specified margin, for the bank loans.
8. Long-term Debt (continued)
For the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company recognized a credit of Ps. 15,989,651 (Ps. 93,087 in 2007) in financing cost for these cross currency swaps due to the changes in their fair value.

Forwards dollar-peso
In 2008, the Company settled its short-term foreign currency forwards of Ps. 34,331,759
(USD 3,160 million). In response to current market conditions, the Company replaced the forwards with cross currency swaps, but maintained USD 625 million in foreign currency forwards through November 2008 to hedge the payment of the bond of USD 1,000 million at that date. Consequently, at December 31, 2008, the Company had no forward contracts outstanding. At December 31, 2007, the Company had forward contracts outstanding of Ps. 34,331,759 (USD 3,160 million). For the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company recognized a net charge of Ps. 1,690,380 (Ps. 578,926 in 2007) in as part of financing cost due to changes in the fair value of these forwards.

Additionally, at December 31, 2008, the Company had interest rate swaps in U.S. dollars for an aggregate notional amount of Ps. 1,353,830 (USD 100 million), paying a fixed rate of 4.47% and receiving the three-month LIBOR rate, to cover U.S. dollar denominated debt with a floating interest rate that matures in October 2009. These interest rate swaps expire in August 2009 and changes in their fair value is recognized in financing cost.
At December 31, 2007, the Company had interest rate swaps in U.S. dollars for an aggregate notional amount of Ps. 12,496,130 (USD 1,150 million), paying a fixed rate and receiving the six-month LIBOR rate, as well as for an aggregate notional amount of Ps. 11,409,510 (USD 1,050 million), paying the six-month LIBOR rate and receiving a fixed rate. For both swaps, USD 1,050 million expired in 2008.
During 2008, the Company entered into currency coupon swaps that cover interest payments of Ps. 4,738,405 (USD 350 million) (Ps. 3,259,860, or USD 300 million, for 2007).
For the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company recognized a net expense for these swaps in financing cost of Ps. 2,282,554 (Ps. 673,874 in 2007). Additionally, for the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company recognized an expense of Ps. 267,047 due to the replacement of interest rate swap contracts denominated in Mexican pesos.

At December 31, 2008, 63% of the Company's outstanding derivatives correspond to these types of agreements; however, no margin calls have been required at such date.

In 2008, the actuarial loss of Ps. 29,612,616 resulted from (i) the effect of an unfavorable actuarial variance of Ps. 22,949,640 due to the behavior of the plan assets resulting from a decrease in the value of investments in shares of companies and in fixed-yield investments due to variances in reference rates, and (ii) an actuarial loss of Ps. 6,662,976, attributable principally to the number of employees who retired was greater than the number estimated at the beginning of the year, the Company updating its mortality table, and the mortality rate of retired employees was less than the rate estimated at the beginning of the year.
In 2007, the net actuarial loss of Ps. 7,839,725 resulted from (i) the effect of a favorable actuarial difference of Ps. 10,866,755 due to the behavior of the plan assets invested in shares of companies listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange, and (ii) an actuarial loss of Ps. 18,706,480 attributable principally to changes made to the discount rates of the obligations based on long-term and low-risk financial instruments, changes in the experience with retired personnel, and differences between the inflation rate and the increase in salaries.
At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the rates used in the actuarial study are as follows:
2008 Nominal rates |
2007 Actual rates |
|
% |
% |
|
Discount of labor obligations: |
||
Long-term average |
9.2 |
5.51 |
Increase in salaries: |
||
Long-term average |
4.5 |
0.97 |
Based on the provisions of Mexican FRS D-3, as of January 1, 2008, the actual financial valuation rates were replaced with nominal rates. This change has no effect on the calculation of labor obligations, since these rates are consistent with the rates used in the actuarial valuation at December 31, 2007 (i.e., the long-term inflation rate, discount rate and salary increase rate are the same as those selected for 2007).
11. Labor Obligations (continued)
At December 31, 2008, 45.9% (53.8% in 2007) of plan assets were invested in fixed-yield securities and the remaining 54.1% (46.2% in 2007) in variable-yield securities.

c) Employee profit sharing
TELMEX is obligated to pay profit sharing to its employees in Mexico, in addition to their contractual compensation and benefits. For the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, employee profit sharing was based on 10% of the Company's taxable income, excluding certain inflation effects and the restatement of depreciation expense.
11. Labor Obligations (continued)
The cumulative effect of deferred employee profit sharing at the beginning of 2008 resulting from the adoption of Mexican FRS D-3 was Ps. 5,820,412 and was charged to shareholders' equity. The deferred employee profit sharing gave rise to a credit to shareholders' equity for deferred income tax of Ps. 1,630,277. Accordingly, the net effect of the adoption of Mexican FRS D-3 was a charge to shareholders' equity of Ps. 4,190,135. The 2007 financial statements remained unchanged by the new standard. For the year ended December 31, 2008, the deferred employee profit sharing provision represented a credit to results of operations of Ps. 1,400,171, which was recognized in the statements of income under the caption Other expenses, net.
At December 31, 2008, the Company recognized deferred employee profit sharing on the following temporary items:

13. Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
At December 31, 2008, TELMEX has non-cancelable commitments for the purchase of equipment of Ps. 4,520,320 (Ps. 5,170,915 in 2007), which include Ps. 798,792
(Ps. 1,561,647 in 2007) for non-cancelable commitments with related parties. Payments made under the related purchase agreements aggregated to Ps. 3,173,710 in 2008
(Ps. 4,169,109 in 2007).
Contingencies
a) In December 1995, a company that provides cellular telephone services filed a formal complaint against Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. with the Federal Commission of Economic Competition ("COFECO") for alleged monopolistic practices and unjust concentration.
In July 2001, COFECO ruled that TELMEX is responsible for monopolistic practices and unjust concentration. TELMEX filed a motion to reconsider against the ruling, but COFECO ruled that the motion was unfounded and the original ruling was therefore upheld.
The Company filed an action for annulment against COFECO's ruling with the Federal Tax and Administrative Court, but the filing was declared to be unfounded. Accordingly, TELMEX filed for a petition for protection (amparo) against the ruling, which was resolved favorably for TELMEX. In compliance with the ruling, the court declared the resolution issued by COFECO to be null and void. As a result, COFECO filed an appeal, which the Company's external lawyers believe will be ruled inadmissible.
13. Commitments and Contingencies (continued)
b) In November 2005, COFETEL issued the guidelines that TELMEX must abide by for making changes to local service areas. In March 2007, COFETEL ordered the consolidation of a package of 70 local service areas and, in September 2008, another package of 125 local service areas, each with its own schedule. Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. has challenged COFETEL's orders through the corresponding legal procedures, which is currently still pending.
The Company's external lawyers who are handling this matter are of the opinion that although the Company's arguments are well-founded, there is no guarantee that TELMEX will actually obtain favorable results.
c) Between November 2007 and February 2008, COFECO initiated seven inquests to evaluate if there are any operators that have substantial control in certain markets. The preliminary findings of four of these inquests have been issued, in which COFECO has determined that Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. has substantial control in the following areas: (i) termination of public switched traffic; (ii) origination of public switched traffic; (iii) local transit services; and (iv) leasing of lines or circuits. TELMEX has expressed its disagreement with the proceedings, objected to the findings and has submitted evidence against the allegations. These proceedings are in the stage of hearing the evidence and allegations. The final report for each one of the proceedings is currently pending.
In the three remaining proceedings, COFECO is investigating to determine if TELMEX engaged in monopolistic practices in the following areas: (i) the broad-band internet market for domestic residential customers; (ii) the fixed-network interconnection services markets; and (iii) the inter-urban transport for switched long-distance traffic services market. These proceedings are currently in the stage of requesting information.
In the first four cases of the investigations mentioned above, COFECO could rule that Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. could be deemed an economic agent that exercises substantial control over these relevant markets and then issue a statement of dominance. Consequently, through an additional proceeding with COFETEL, Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. could be subject to specific obligations imposed by COFECO regarding rates, the quality of services and other information. In the last three cases, COFECO could determine that Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. engages in monopolistic practices and eventually impose fines against the Company.
13. Commitments and Contingencies (continued)
Notwithstanding the fact that the arguments of Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. are considered to be founded, the Company's external lawyers handling the above-mentioned cases consider that there is no certainty that the Company will obtain favorable results.
d) The Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS) audited Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. for the period from 1997 to 2001. As a result of the audit, IMSS determined that Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. owed approximately Ps. 330,000 (historical amount) as of July 2, 2003 in past due obligations, fines, surcharges, restatement for inflation and interest. Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. filed an appeal to nullify these findings and related assessment with the Federal Court of Justice for Tax and Administrative Matters. In accordance with Mexican law, by means of a trust fund established with a banking institution, the Company guaranteed payment of the tax assessment in the amount of Ps. 512,546 through July 19, 2009.
The Company's external lawyers who are handling this matter are of the opinion that although the reasons for the Company's appeal are well-founded, there is no guarantee that the final resolution will be favorable.
e) In accordance with Mexican law, Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. shall be severally liable for all of the obligations transferred to Telmex Internacional, S.A.B. de C.V. as a result of the split-up, for a three-year period, with respect to the terms of the split-up agreement approved by the shareholders of Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. on December 21, 2007. This responsibility, however, does not apply to obligations with those creditors who have given their express consent relieving Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. from these liabilities and approving the split-up.
Subsequent event
f) On February 10, 2009, COFETEL published the Fundamental Technical Interconnection and Interoperability Plan in the Official Gazette. Such plan could have a negative impact on Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. and on the telecommunications sector in general, since it establishes certain obligations that are not part of interconnection services. Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. is evaluating what effect such plan could have on its operations to determine the best legal means for challenging the plan.

The Company's capital stock must be represented by (i) no less than 20% of Series "AA" common shares, which may be subscribed and acquired only by Mexican investors, and at all times must represent at least 51% of the common shares of total capital stock; (ii) Series "A" common shares, which may be freely subscribed, that must not exceed more than 19.6% of capital stock and no more than 49% of the common shares of total capital stock; (iii) both Series "AA" and "A" shares combined may not represent more than 51% of capital stock; and (iv) Series "L" shares, which have limited voting rights and may be freely subscribed, in a percentage when combined with the Series "A" shares may not exceed 80% of capital stock.
Voting rights
Each ordinary share of the Series "AA" and "A" entitles the holder to one vote at the general shareholders' meetings. Each Series "L" share entitles the holder to one vote at all shareholders' meetings in which holders of Series "L" share are authorized to vote. In accordance with the Eighth Clause of the Company's bylaws, holders of Series "L" shares only have the right to vote to designate two directors to the Board of Directors and their corresponding alternate directors, and on the following matters:
15. Shareholders' Equity (continued)
In order for the resolutions adopted in extraordinary shareholders" meetings related to any of the matters on which the Series "L" shares are entitled to vote to be validated, the approval by a majority vote of the Series "AA" and Series "A" shareholders will be required.
Under Mexican law, the shareholders of any Series of shares are also entitled to vote as one class on any proposal that could adversely affect the rights of the shareholders of that particular series and the Company's shareholders (including the Series "L" shareholders), which individually or collectively represent 20% or more of all capital stock could judicially oppose any shareholders' resolution with respect to those resolutions for which such shareholders have the right to vote. The determination of whether a matter requires the vote by the holders of Series "L" under such basis would initially be made by the board of directors or by any other party that calls a shareholders' meeting to decide on the resolution. A negative decision would be subject to judicial challenge by any affected shareholder, and a court would ultimately determine the necessity for a class vote. There are no other procedures for determining whether a proposal requires a class vote, and Mexican law does not provide extensive guidance on the criteria to be applied in making such a determination.
c) In 1994, the Company initiated a program to purchase its own shares. The cost of the repurchased shares, in the amount that exceeds the portion of capital stock corresponding to the repurchased shares, is charged to retained earnings.
At a regular shareholders' meeting held on April 27, 2007, the shareholders approved an increase of Ps. 15,000,000 (nominal value) to the total authorized nominal amount for the repurchase of the Company's own shares, bringing the total maximum amount to be used for this purpose to Ps. 23,046,597 (nominal value).
In 2008, the Company acquired 796.7 million Series "L" shares for Ps. 12,764,130 and 8.6 million Series "A" shares for Ps. 107,712.
In 2007, the Company acquired 839.9 million Series "L" shares for Ps. 15,729,975 (historical cost of Ps. 15,423,889) and 2.8 million Series "A" shares for Ps. 52,864 (historical cost of Ps. 51,902).
At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company had 13,677 (13,637 Series "L" and 40 Series "A") and 12,872 (12,840 Series "L" and 32 Series "A") million treasury shares, respectively.
d) 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.
15. Shareholders' Equity (continued)
e) At December 31, 2008, Accumulated other comprehensive income items include Ps. 2,615,521 for the effect of the market valuation of swaps designated as cash flow hedges, net of deferred taxes, and Ps. 201,104 for the effect of translation of foreign entities. At December 31, 2007, Accumulated other comprehensive income items include (Ps. 79,419,845) for the deficit from the restatement of shareholders' equity, Ps. 535,119 for the effect of the market valuation of swaps designated as cash flow hedges, net of deferred taxes, and Ps. 61,875 for the effect of translation of foreign entities.
f) Subsequent event
At a regular shareholders' meeting held on March 3, 2009, the shareholders approved an increase of Ps. 10,000,000 in the total authorized nominal amount for the repurchase of the Company's own shares, bringing the total maximum amount to be used for this purpose to Ps. 10,340,868.
16. Income Tax, Asset Tax and Flat-Rate Business Tax
a) Beginning January 1, 2007, asset tax was payable at 1.25% of the average value of most assets. Through December 31, 2006, asset tax was payable at 1.8% of the average value of most assets net of certain liabilities. Asset tax for the year ended December 31, 2007 was Ps. 1,838,181. Such amount was remitted through the crediting of income tax paid in such year. As of January 1, 2008, the Asset Tax Law was abolished.
b) On October 1, 2007, the Flat-Rate Business Tax (FRBT) Law was published and became effective as of January 1, 2008.
Current-year FRBT is computed by applying the 17.5% rate (16.5% for 2008 and 17% for 2009) to an income base determined on the basis of cash flows, net of authorized credits.
When the FRBT base is negative because deductions exceed taxable income, there is no FRBT payable. The amount of the negative base multiplied by the FRBT rate results in a FRBT credit, which may be applied against income tax for the same year or, if applicable, against FRBT payable in the next ten years.
FRBT credits result mainly from the negative FRBT base to be amortized, salary and social security contribution credits, and credits arising from the deduction of certain assets, such as inventories and fixed assets, during the transition period as of the date on which the FRBT became effective.
FRBT is payable only to the extent it exceeds income tax for the same period. To determine FRBT payable, income tax paid in a given period is first subtracted from the FRBT of the same period.
For the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company had no FRBT payable and, based on its tax projections, estimates that it will not be subject to the payment of FRBT in subsequent years.

17. Segments
Subsequent to the split-up described in Note 2, TELMEX primarily operates in two segments: local and long-distance telephone service. The local telephone service segment corresponds principally to local fixed-line wired service. The long-distance service segment includes domestic and international service. Others segments include long-distance calls made from public and rural telephones, corporate networks, internet and other services. Additional information related to the Company's operations is provided in Note 1. The following summary shows the most important segment information, which has been prepared on a consistent basis:

Exchange rate variations
Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate applicable at the time of its occurrence. The assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are valued at the exchange rate of the balance sheet date. The exchange rate differences between the execution date and the payment date, as well as those arising from the conversion of balances denominated in foreign currencies at the date of the financial statements, are applied to results.
Translation of financial statements of foreign companies
The financial statements of subsidiaries and associated companies located abroad are consolidated or the method of participation is recognized, as appropriate, after the financial statements are translated into the Mexican financial reporting standards in the relevant local currency, and conversion to the report currency. The conversion of monetary assets and liabilities in the financial statements of our associate and subsidiary, were translated into Mexican pesos at the exchange rate prevailing at year-end, stockholders' equity accounts at the exchange rate prevailing on the date the capital contributions were made and profits were generated; revenues, costs and expenses to the historical exchange rate and the difference resulting from the conversion process is recognized in the "Effect of conversion of foreign entities" which is included in the stockholders' equity, "other items of income earned" section.
Until December 31, 2007, financial statements reported from operations abroad, where converted to Mexican financial reporting standards in local currency, and updated to constants values based on the inflation of the country the subsidiary operates. Under this method, all the assets and liabilities were translated into Mexican pesos at the exchange rate prevailing at year-end, stockholders' equity accounts at the exchange rate prevailing on the date the capital contributions were made and profits were generated; revenues, costs and expenses to the historical exchange rate and the difference resulting from the conversion process is recognized in the "Effect of conversion of foreign entities" which is included in the stockholders' equity, "other items of income earned" section.

COMPLIANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENT ISSUED BY THE COMISION BANCARIA Y DE VALORES (BANKING AND SECURITIES COMMISSION OF MEXICO)
Audited information

Complementary information to TELMEX's Fourth Quarter 2008 Report requested by Official Communication No. 151/13202/2008 dated as of November 27, 2008 issued by the Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores (Banking and Securities Commission of Mexico).
The Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores has requested to Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V. (TELMEX or the Company) and, we understand that also to all other issuers registered in the Registro Nacional de Valores (National Securities Registry) and whose shares are listed on the Bolsa Mexicana de Valores, S.A.B. de C.V., information related to the use of derivative instruments. Given the conditions of volatility in the markets and that the Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores considers of particular importance that the investors are aware of the participation of public companies in transactions with derivative instruments either to increase their profitability or have specific hedges regarding any risk, the disclosure of additional and complementary information is required in accordance with this form. This complementary report is based on the specific requirements of the Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores and is limited to meet such requirements without prejudging over its source or the need to disclose this information periodically, as long as there are no permanent rules from the Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores.
Derivative Instruments
As of December 31, 2008, the Company had cross currency swap agreements for U.S.$5,451 million, which have hedged the exchange rate and interest rate risks related to the bonds with maturity in 2010 and 2015 for a total amount of U.S.$1,750 million and bank loans with maturity from 2009 to 2018 for a total amount of U.S.$3,701 million (with Libor interest rate plus a spread). These hedges allowed us to fix the exchange rate of our debt on a weighted average exchange rate of 10.6889 Mexican pesos per US dollar, as well as to set a fixed rate of 7.52% and 8.57% for the bonds, respectively, and an average interest rate of 28-day TIIE less 23 basis points for the bank loans.
Additionally, the Company had interest rate swaps in Mexican pesos for Ps.$23,752 million to hedge the floating rate risk in local currency fixing it at an average of 8.19%, as well as interest rate swap agreements in U.S. dollars for U.S.$100 million to hedge our floating rate U.S. dollar debt, fixing it at 4.47%.
These transactions have been carried out based on the Company's policies, strategies and guidelines that are explained below.
I. Qualitative and quantitative Information
i. Policies for using of derivative instruments
Objective to enter into derivative transactions and selected instruments
With the purpose of reducing the risks related to the variations of exchange rate and interest rate, the Company uses derivative instruments connecting the hedges to the contracted debt. The derivative instruments that have been selected are mainly:
Hedge strategies
When the market conditions are favorable, the Company's Management determines the amounts and objective parameters to be considered in the hedging agreements. This strategy seeks to reduce the risk exposure of abnormal fluctuations in the market of the main variables that affect our debt, including exchange rate and interest rate, maintaining a solid and healthy financial structure.
These strategies of hedging financial risks are included in the Corporate Governance Guidelines adopted by the Company, and its application is authorized by the Audit Committee.
Trading markets and eligible counterparts
The financial institutions and counterparts with which the Company enters into such derivative instruments are considered to have a proven reputation and solvency in the market, which allows us to balance our risk positions with the counterparts. Also, the Company only uses derivative instruments that are of common use in the markets, and therefore, can be quoted by two or more financial institutions to assure the best conditions in the negotiation.
Policies for the appointment of calculation and valuation agents
Given that the Company uses derivative instruments of common use in the market, it appoints a third party that is responsible to provide the market price of such instruments. These prices are compared by the Company with the ones provided by the financial intermediaries, also, in certain transactions the counterpart is able to act as valuation agent under the applicable documentation, when it is a financial institution with a proven reputation.
Main terms and conditions of the agreements
It is a policy of the Company that the amount, date and interest rate conditions of the debt to be hedged, if possible, have to coincide with the terms of the hedges, that is usual for this type of transactions in the different markets where it operates. All the transactions with derivative instruments are made under the ISDA Master Agreement (International Swap Dealers Association) standardized and duly executed by the legal representatives of the Company and the financial institutions, and in the case of counterparts in México, pursuant to the uses and practices of the market in our country.
Margin policies, collaterals and lines of credit
In some cases, the Company has entered into an accessory agreement to the ISDA Master Agreement with the financial institutions, the Credit Support Annex, which sets forth an obligation to grant collaterals for margin calls in case the mark-to market value exceeds certain established credit limits (threshold amount). The Company has the policy to keep a close watch of the volume of the transactions entered with each financial institution in order to avoid, if possible, any margin call.
Processes of levels of authorization required by type of negotiation
The strategy for hedging financial risks is discussed and approved by the Audit Committee. Subsequently, the Board of Directors is informed for their knowledge and ratification. The Treasury is in charge of its implementation and is supervised by the Company's Chief Financial Officer.
Existence of a independent third party that reviews such processes
Both, the fulfillment of the Corporate Governance Guidelines and the measurement of effectiveness of the derivative instruments, to comply with the international financial reporting standards, are discussed with the external auditors that validate the correct accounting application of the effect of such instruments in the income statement and the balance sheet.
ii. Generic description of the valuation techniques
As previously stated, derivative instruments are carried out by the Company only for hedging purposes. The measurement of the effectiveness of the hedges is made in a prospective and retrospective manner. For the prospective valuation, we use statistic techniques that allow us to measure in what proportion the change in the value of the hedged debt (primary position) is compensated by the change in the value of the derivative instrument. The retrospective valuation is made by comparing the historic results of the debt flows with the flows of the respective hedges.
iii. Internal and external liquidity sources to meet the requirements related to derivative instruments
It is estimated that the Company's cash generation has been enough to service debt and the established derivative instruments to hedge the risks associated with such debt.
iv. Changes in the exposure to the main identified risks and its management
The identified risks are those related to the variations of the exchange rate and interest rate. Given the direct relationship between the hedged debt and the derivative instruments and that they do not have any variables that could affect or terminate the hedge in advance, the Company does not foresee any risk that such hedges could differ from the original purpose for which the hedges were established.
In the fourth quarter of 2008, we have recognized an accrued net credit position of Ps$15,836 million for the exchange rate hedges and an accrued net debit position of Ps.$981 million for interest rate hedges in the income statement.
In the fourth quarter, we had early termination of interest rate and cross currency swap agreements with a net notional amount of U.S.$130 million, with which we obtained a profit of Ps.$333 million. In the forth quarter, there have not been any margin calls.
To date, there has not been any breach in the terms and conditions of the respective agreements.
v. Quantitative information
See TABLE 1 attached.
II. SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS
In the case of the Company, the sensitivity analysis does not apply for the derivative instruments, since they are only carried out for hedging purposes.

(*) Of our hedge agreements, 62.6% of the total hedged amount include margin calls when the market value exceeds the amounts of the lines of credit that we have for the amount of USD$290 millon.
