forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the U.S.

expectations and intentions as to facts, actions and events that will or may
occur in the future.  Such statements generally are identified by
forward-looking words such as &#147;believe,&#148; &#147;plan,&#148; &#147;anticipate,&#148; &#147;continue,&#148; &#147;estimate,&#148;

forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions,
some of which are beyond our control.  In addition, these forward-looking
statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are not
a guarantee of future performance.  Actual results may differ materially from
information contained in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number
of factors, including, without limitation, the risk factors set forth in

for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.  You should also keep in mind that
any forward-looking statement made by us in this report or elsewhere speaks
only as at the date on which we made it.  New risks and uncertainties come up
from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict these events or how
they may affect us.  We have no duty to, and do not intend to, update or revise
the statements in this report after the date hereof.  In light of these risks
and uncertainties, you should keep in mind that actual results may differ
materially from any forward-looking statement made in this report or elsewhere.</p>

March 2009</b>
&#150;&#150; Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company (&#147;PLDT&#148;) (PSE: TEL) (NYSE: PHI)
today announced audited financial results for 2008 with core net income, net of
exceptional items, rising to P38.1 billion, 8% over the core net income
of P35.2 billion in 2007. Consolidated net profit of P34.6
billion decreased 4% from the P36.0 billion net profit reported last
year. This year&#146;s results were impacted by asset impairment charges arising
largely from earlier investments in its information and communications
technology business as well as losses from the foreign exchange revaluation of
our financial assets and liabilities, partially offset by net gains on
derivative transactions. Consolidated service
revenues increased by 5% to P142.9 billion, fueled mainly by the 12%
growth in data and ePLDT revenues. Consolidated EBITDA improved by 6% to P87.6
billion while EBITDA margin was stable at 61%.</p>

<p style='text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style='text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Consolidated free cash
flow remained strong at P47.9 billion in 2008. Consolidated capital
expenditures stood at P25.2 billion for the year, slightly below the P27.0
billion guidance provided earlier in the year. The P1.8 billion
difference is due mainly to certain rescheduled maintenance programs in the
Fixed line business and will be carried over into 2009.</p>

debt balance as of 31st December 2008 stood at US$1.6 billion with
net debt at approximately US$800 million.  Net debt to EBITDA and net debt to
free cash flow ratios stood at 0.4 times and 0.8 times, respectively. The
Company&#146;s debt maturities  are  well  spread  out,  with the bulk of  debt
repayments due in and after 2013. About 78% of consolidated debt are
US$-denominated with 33% of total debt hedged. The Group&#146;s cash and short-term

fulfilling the Company&#146;s commitment to pay out a minimum ratio of 70% of core
earnings.  In addition, the Board approved a special dividend of P60 per
share. Added to the previously paid interim dividend of P70 per share
paid in March 2008, total dividends for the year will amount to P200 per
share, representing a payout of 100% of 2008 core earnings, similar to 2007&#146;s
payout ratio.  Total dividend payments for 2008 will total P37.5

to have been able to fulfill our regular dividend commitment but more than
this, to be able to declare a special dividend as well. The final dividend of P70
per share and the special dividend of P60 per share bring total
dividends for 2008 to P200 per share, inclusive of the interim dividend
of P70 per share paid earlier. This 100% dividend payout of Core EPS for

revenues increased 1% to P49.3 billion in 2008 from P48.6 billion
last year as gains in data revenues, both from corporate data and residential
DSL services, were attenuated by declines in other segments of the business.
Revenues in local exchange and national long distance were down 2% while ILD
revenues continued to weaken as our dollar-linked revenues were adversely
impacted by the 4% average appreciation of the U. S. dollar/peso exchange rate
in 2008 as well as lower termination rates and call volumes.  Fixed Line
revenues would have improved another 1% year-on-year if foreign exchange rates
had remained stable. </p>

fixed-wireless telephone service that uses a combined fixed/wireless platform
in the delivery of fixed line voice and data services, now number close to
126,000.  Programs to reduce churn, such as ask-PLDT, were also introduced.
PLDT Business Solutions continued to provide bundled packages to its corporate
customers addressing their hardware, software and telecommunications
requirements.  Our SME unit has made inroads in capturing a significant share
in a growing segment of the market estimated at over 600,000 active enterprises.</p>

strong performance as broadband subscribers grew by over 168,000 to 432,000 at
the end of 2008 from 264,000 at the end of 2007.  PLDT DSL generated P5.4
