T-Mobile Group with strong growth in 2005

• Major increase in EBITDA, revenue and customers
• T-Mobile with strong customer growth in core countries Germany, USA and UK
• T-Mobile Germany defends market leadership and makes its mark in a tough market environment
• T-Mobile USA: Most successful year in company history

The T-Mobile Group can look back on a highly successful financial year in 2005. T-Mobile reported major growth in net revenue, EBITDA and in its customer base. As per end of 2005, T-Mobile had 86.6 million customers, around 11 percent up on the 2004 financial year. Contract customers remained stable at 49 percent. T-Mobile USA layed a key role in customer growth, winning 4.4 million new customers to raise its customer base to a total of 21.7 million, equivalent to growth of 25 percent.

The T-Mobile Group reported double-digit growth in revenue and EBITDA in 2005 (revenue up 11 percent, EBITDA up 16 percent). End-of-year revenue amounted to EUR 29.5 billion, EBITDA to EUR 9.8 billion. Results from ordinary business activities totaled EUR 5.2 billion in 2005 (3.8 billion in 2004). The EBITDA margin increased 1.5 percentage points to its current level of 33.2 percent. T-Mobile recorded a 17-percent rise (EUR 6.2 billion) in cash contribution (EBITDA minus cash capex). Details on the national companies:

Germany
T-Mobile Germany defended its market leadership successfully in 2005 and made its mark in a tough market environment. 29.5 million customers (plus 2.1 million) at year-end translated into growth of 7.5 percent (2004: 4.3 percent), with the share of contract customers at 48.4 percent. Despite strong price pressure and regulatory influences, the EBITDA margin (41.8 percent) was sustained and actually increased slightly. This backs up the success of the "Save for Growth" strategy, which was initiated at the beginning of 2005. The minor decline in revenue (from EUR 8.7 to 8.6 billion) is attributable, above all, to a stronger focus on high-value customers and the resulting changes in policy for terminal equipment subsidies. This led to a drop in low-margin revenue from terminal equipment.
ARPU revenues were therefore more meaningful and increased by 1.3 percent to EUR 7.8 billion.

United States
T-Mobile USA succeeded in winning a record-breaking 4.4 million new customers (plus 25.3 percent), 1.4 million of them in the fourth quarter alone, taking its total up to 21.7 million customers. The company also reported major growth in revenue and EBITDA: revenue rose by 28 percent to EUR 11.9 billion while EBITDA increased by a massive 60 percent to EUR 3.3 billion. Cash contribution amounted to EUR 1.5 billion (not including the acquisition of the networks in California and Nevada).

United Kingdom
The financial year at T-Mobile UK featured strong growth in contract customers (plus 14.7 percent). The major efforts made by the company towards greater efficiency and value-based growth are now proving successful: with its current customer base at 17.2 million, T-Mobile UK grew by 9 percent. Whereas net growth in contract customers totaled 441,000 or 40 percent, net additions in the prepaid segment fell by 44 percent with growth at 1 million.
The tough market caused both revenue and EBITDA to drop slightly: from 4.3 to 4.2 billion and from1.4 to 1.3 billion.

The takeover of the mobile communications company O2 by Telefonica generated an indicator of the market price of T-Mobile UK for the impairment test. According to applicable accounting standards, this indication of market price must be given priority in the calculation of goodwill - and led to a non-cash impairment of EUR 1.9 billion of the goodwill of T-Mobile UK.

Other T-Mobile countries:
Despite the very tough competitive environment in Austria, T-Mobile Austria succeeded in asserting its position in 2005. Its customer base grew slightly by 2.3 percent to 2.1 million. As in all other T-Mobile countries, the focus here was again on high-income, high-value customers. EBITDA decreased by 6.3 percent to EUR 225 million. Revenue increased slightly from EUR 882 to 885 million. The far more meaningful ratio of service revenues rose by 1.7 percent to EUR 834 million.

T-Mobile Netherlands
In the Netherlands revenue increased by 1.7 percent to EUR 1.1 billion and EBITDA was up by 22.2 percent to EUR 176 million. The total number of customers increased 2.5 percent on 2004 to 2.3 million customers.

In the other T-Mobile countries, business also developed encouragingly. T-Mobile Czech Republic, for example, showed an increase in customer numbers by 6.3 percent to 4.6 million at year-end. T-Mobile Czech Republic reported double-digit growth in revenue, EBITDA and service revenue (revenue: plus 13.4 percent, now EUR 938 million; EBITDA: plus 12.6 percent, EUR 410 million; service revenue: plus 12.3 percent, EUR 868 million).

The T-Mobile subsidiaries in central and eastern Europe excelled with significant growth in service revenue and EBITDA: T-Mobile Croatia, service revenue: plus 17 percent; EBITDA: plus 23.3 percent; T-Mobile Slovakia, service revenue: plus 14.4 percent; EBITDA: plus 29.4 percent; T-Mobile Hungary, service revenue: plus 4.4 percent; EBITDA: plus 4.6 percent.
