                                                                  April 10, 2003

        MILLICOM INTERNATIONAL CELLULAR S.A. - FINAL AUDITED RESULTS FOR
                        THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002


New York,  London  and  Luxembourg  - April 10,  2003 -  Millicom  International
Cellular  S.A.  (Nasdaq  Stock  Market:  MICC),  the  global  telecommunications
investor,  today  announces it has amended its accounting  policy in relation to
the  revaluation  of certain  securities  which are classified as "Investment in
securities"  in the balance  sheet.  Accordingly,  as at December 31, 2002,  the
accumulated fair value adjustments  related to certain  Investment in securities
(which had previously  been recorded  within the caption  "Revaluation  Reserve"
within  Shareholders'  Equity) have now been charged to the Income Statement for
the year ended December 31, 2002.

Whilst this is a non-cash  adjustment,  the net loss for the year ended December
31, 2002 (as previously  disclosed in our press release dated February 12, 2003)
has been restated from US$278,199,000 to US$397,337,000. This restatement has no
effect on total Shareholders' Equity.

In addition, following the successful completion of the sale of Celcaribe, MIC's
Colombian  cellular  operation,  the Company has released a non-cash  impairment
charge of $12,194,000  previously  recorded in the Income Statement for the year
ended  December 31,  2002.  The effect of this release is to reduce the loss for
the  year  to   $385,143,000   and  total  negative   Shareholders'   Equity  to
$295,259,000.
