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

1934.  We have based these forward-looking statements on our current beliefs,
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;

statement of the assumptions or bases underlying the forward-looking
statement.  We have chosen these assumptions or bases in good faith.  These
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, 2008.  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>

 Reported Net Profit of P19.7 billion also increased by 2% from the P19.3

 higher recurring net income, the impact of net losses from the foreign

 (compared to a net gain in the first half last year), and the lower statutory
 tax rate. Consolidated service revenues
 increased by 4% to P72.9 billion, fueled mainly by the 6% growth in

 The
 Group&#146;s consolidated debt balance as of 30th June 2009 was US$1.8
 billion with net debt at approximately US$900 million.  Net debt to EBITDA
 stood at 0.5x. The Company&#146;s debt maturities continue to be well spread out,
 with the bulk of debt repayments due in and after 2013. US dollar-denominated
 debt now represents only 63% of the Group&#146;s debt portfolio, down from 79% at
 the end of 2008. Taking into account our peso borrowings, our hedges and our
 U. S. Dollar cash holdings, only 27% of total debt remains unhedged.  For
 2009, the planned gross borrowings for the group are estimated at P38
 billion.  At the end of the first semester, P33 billion had already
 been put in place, of which P19 billion has been drawn.  The
 additional debt, mainly denominated in Pesos, will be used to fund capital
 expenditures and support various investments, including the 20% stake in
 Meralco.  Net borrowing for the year is projected at P20 billion,
 resulting in a consolidated ratio of net debt to EBITDA at year end of about
 0.9x. The Group&#146;s cash and short-term securities are invested primarily in
 bank placements and Government securities.</p>

 have adjusted our core profit guidance for the year from P40 billion
 to P41 billion,&#148; concluded <b>Manuel V. Pangilinan, PLDT Chairman.</b></p>
