Chief Executive Officer’s Review

Marc Beuls, Chief Executive comments: “In the fourth quarter Millicom again delivered exceptional growth surpassing what was a record breaking third quarter. Fourth quarter revenues increased by 99% from Q4 2005 to $544m and EBITDA rose by 71% to $229m. In Q4, 3.7 million new subscribers were added, of which 1.9m came through the acquisition of Colombia Movil.

“The very high levels of subscriber intake, 7.4 million for the whole year, went in tandem with increased capex during 2006. Capex for the fourth quarter was $247 million giving a total of $616 million for the year, excluding Pakistan and other discontinued operations. This reflected strong investment in the networks in all our regions, but particularly in Colombia and the Democratic Republic of Congo. The progress made in building a new network in Congo allowed us to launch the Tigo brand this January, and with over 100,000 subscribers today, the first signs for the Congo business are encouraging. We have also launched Tigo in Sri Lanka and expect Tigo to be an important catalyst for this business too.

“Central and South America remain the key drivers of growth reflecting the success of Tigo in the second year after launch. In the fourth quarter, revenues in Central America were up 77% year on year and EBITDA was up 62%. In South America, excluding Colombia where we launched Tigo in November, underlying quarterly revenue growth was 80% and EBITDA growth was 109%. In Africa, with revenues and EBITDA up by 59% and 53%, respectively, we are already seeing the effect of the launch of Tigo and we believe that in the future our African businesses can achieve similar if not higher levels of growth than those we have enjoyed from Latin America. In the fourth quarter, we cleaned up the subscriber base in Tanzania which affected net subscriber intake for the quarter but helped increase ARPUs as these customers were inactive.

Yesterday we completed the sale of Paktel for an enterprise value of $460 million. The number of subscribers for Pakistan was similar to that for Colombia and as such, the total number of subscribers at year-end has not been materially impacted. We believe our opportunity as the third operator in Colombia is a more attractive prospect and we expect to see Colombia Movil rise towards average group margins in the medium term. The current and prior year results have been presented to show the continuing businesses separately by segregating the discontinued operations. We have also merged the South Asia and South East Asia clusters into one Asian operation.”

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

SUBSCRIBER GROWTH

In the fourth quarter of 2006 Millicom’s worldwide operations in Latin America, Africa and Asia added 3,679,325 net new total cellular subscribers.

At December 31, 2006, Millicom’s total cellular subscriber base increased by 99% to 14,945,445 cellular subscribers from 7,511,265 as at December 31, 2005. Particularly significant year on year percentage increases were recorded in Ghana (170%), Chad (105%), Guatemala (91%), El Salvador (88%), Honduras (86%) and Paraguay (84%). Millicom’s attributable subscriber base increased to 12,840,568 as at December 31, 2006 from 6,277,234 as at December 31, 2005, an increase of 105%.

Prepaid subscribers accounted for 94% or 14,069,319 of the total cellular subscribers reported at the end of the fourth quarter.

FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2006

Total revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2006 were $543.8 million, an increase of 99% from the fourth quarter of 2005 excluding discontinued operations. The Central American market produced a 77% increase in revenues from $142.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2005 to $250.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2006, with Guatemala and Honduras both producing growth of at least 80%. South America reported the strongest year on year organic revenue growth for the quarter, with Bolivia and Paraguay combined producing an increase of 80%. Including Colombia, which was consolidated in the fourth quarter of 2006, revenues for South America were $162.3 million, up over 300% from the fourth quarter of 2005. From 2005, Millicom has been able to pursue higher value customers with value-added services following the roll-out of Tigo branded GSM services across Latin America and this has led to strong ARPU levels across the region.

Fourth quarter revenues for Africa were $92.4 million compared to $58.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2005, an increase of 59%, reflecting Millicom’s investment and increased capex in Africa to grow its networks. Excluding Chad, which grew by 297% from the fourth quarter of 2005 from a low base, the strongest market was again Ghana which grew by 147%. Revenues from Senegal and Tanzania are starting to see the benefits of the Tigo launches in those countries. The Democratic Republic of Congo grew 11% from the third quarter of 2006 and celebrated its own Tigo launch on January 18, 2007.

With Paktel now held as a discontinued operation, Sri Lanka, the remaining South Asian operation and the South East Asian operations of Cambodia and Laos have been put together into one Asian cluster. Revenues for Asia for the fourth quarter were $38.2 million, up 15% from $33.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2005.

EBITDA for the three months ended December 31, 2006 was $229.2 million, a 71% increase from the fourth quarter of 2005. Central America recorded growth in EBITDA of 62% from the fourth quarter of 2005 to $131.4 million. The equivalent increase for South America was 109%, excluding Colombia. Total EBITDA, including Colombia, was $48.9 million. EBITDA for Africa increased by 53% to $32.8 million. EBITDA for Asia was $16.1 million, an 8% increase from the fourth quarter of 2005.

The EBITDA margin in the fourth quarter of 2006 was 42%. Central and South America recorded EBITDA margins of 52% and 30% respectively in the fourth quarter of 2006. The South American EBITDA margin was impacted by the lower than average margin in Colombia Movil. For Africa, the EBITDA margin was 36%, and for Asia it was 42%. Compared to 2005, the Group EBITDA margin was lower due to the impact of Colombia and a reduction in non-recurring other operating income.

COMMENTS ON FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

  • The depreciation charge in 2006 is substantially higher than 2005 due to higher capital expenditures.

  • The increase in property, plant and equipment (PPE) is also primarily a result of the higher capex levels to greatly improve the quality and coverage of the networks.

  • The acquisition of Colombia Movil has impacted most areas of the financial statements with particularly major impacts on the subscriber numbers, PPE, intangible assets (including goodwill) and external debt.

  • Paktel has been classified as an asset held for sale and, as such, its assets and liabilities have been segregated and shown on separate lines on the balance sheet.

  • Paktel, Pakcom, Vietnam and Peru have all been classified as discontinued operations in the financial statements. Accordingly, the current and prior year results have been amended to show these operations within a single line on the profit and loss statement.
