forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the U.S.
Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of
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>

March 2010</b>
&#150;&#150; Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company (&#147;PLDT&#148;) (PSE: TEL) (NYSE: PHI)
today announced its unaudited financial results for 2009 with consolidated
Reported Net Income increasing by 15% to P39.8 billion, from the P34.6
billion recorded last year. Core Net Income, net of exceptional items, rose 8%
to P41.1 billion, from P38.1 billion in 2008. This year&#146;s results
reflect higher recurring net income, net gain from foreign exchange revaluation
of our financial assets and liabilities and derivatives compared to a net loss
last year, and the lower statutory tax rate. This year&#146;s results also recognize
the equity share of Pilipino Telephone Corporation (&#147;Piltel&#148;) in the earnings
of the Manila Electric Company (&#147;Meralco&#148;). Consolidated
service revenues increased by 2% to P145.6 billion, fueled mainly by the
3% growth in data and broadband revenues. Consolidated EBITDA was lower at P86.2
billion while EBITDA margin was 59%.</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 aat P44.0 billion in 2009. Consolidated capital
expenditures stood at P28.1 billion for the year, higher than our
guidance of  P27.0 billion as the Group accelerated its broadband
rollout while continuing to invest in additional cellular coverage and
capacity.</p>

<p style='text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">The Group&#146;s consolidated
debt balance as at year-end 2009 was US$2.2 billion with net debt at
approximately U. S. $1.3 billion.  Net debt to EBITDA increased to 0.7x. The
Company&#146;s debt maturities continue to be well spread out, with more than 50%
due in and after 2013. The percentage of U. S. dollar-denominated debt to the
Group&#146;s total debt portfolio further declined to 48%, down from 79% at the end
of 2008. Taking into account our peso borrowings, our hedges and our U. S.
Dollar cash holdings, only 22% of total debt remains unhedged.   This year&#146;s
additional debt, mainly denominated in Pesos, was used to fund capital
expenditures and support various investments, including the 20% stake in
Meralco.  The Group&#146;s cash and short-term securities are invested primarily in
bank placements and Government securities.</p>

<p style='text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Earlier today, the
Company&#146;s Board of Directors declared a final dividend of P76 per share,
fulfilling the Company&#146;s commitment to payout a minimum ratio of 70% of core
earnings.  In addition, the Board, consistent with its year-end &#147;look back&#148;
approach, approved a special dividend of P65 per share. Added to the
previously paid interim dividend of P77 per share paid in September
2009, total dividends for the year will amount to P218 per share,
representing a payout of 100% of 2009 core earnings, similar to the payout
ratio of the last two years.  Total dividend payments for 2009 will total P40.7
billion.</p>

to have been able to fulfill our regular dividend commitment but more so, to
have been able to declare a special dividend despite higher capex and the
Meralco investment. This 100% dividend payout of Core EPS for the third year in
a row was made possible by our continued record earnings and robust cashflows,&#148;

<p style='text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Wireless EBITDA was lower
at P59.4 billion in 2009.  As expected, EBITDA margin decreased to 62%
due primarily to higher compensation and benefits expense as well as higher
rent expenses for international leased circuits associated with the growth of
the wireless broadband business.  </p>

<i>Buddy</i> and <i>Smart Gold</i> subscribers nationwide. The new service
enables <i>Smart Buddy</i> and <i>Smart</i> <i>Gold</i> subscribers to make
unlimited calls to the mobile phone users on the SMART network. Buoyed by the
widespread acceptance of the service, Smart has since launched a variant - <i>Smartalk
Plus,</i> which offers unlimited calling and on-net texting during off-peak
hours and reduced rates during peak hours. As a result, voice revenues
increased its contribution to total cellular revenues from 42% in 2008 to 44%

<p style='text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&#147;The sustained popularity
of our unlimited voice packages indicates that there is a consumer appetite for

<p style='text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Smart continues to invest
in its cellular and multi-platform broadband networks while upgrading its
existing transmission, core and access facilities. Smart&#146;s 3G and HSPA networks
now cover 50% and 44% of the country&#146;s population, respectively. </p>

one that we will face with the same innovative and competitive spirit that
Smart is renowned for,&#148; added Nazareno.</p>

segments of the business. National long distance revenues decreased while
international long distance revenues continued to weaken due to the shifting of
traffic to cellular and other means of communications.  Local exchange revenues
further declined due to the bundling of voice and data services, though
somewhat mitigated by the increase in postpaid billed lines. Data service
revenues contributed 42% of the fixed line&#146;s service revenues as compared with

improvement is attributable mainly to a slightly higher volume of energy sold
and to an adjustment in distribution rates, which took effect in May 2009.</p>

<p style='text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Meralco&#146;s earnings for
the period 15th July to 31st December 2009 approximated 2.5 billion. Having
acquired the Meralco shares on 15th July 2009, Piltel&#146;s 20% equity
share in that period&#146;s earnings, net of acquisition-related adjustments
aggregating 100.2 million, amounted
to 398.1 million.  Piltel
received dividends from Meralco amounting to 334.5 million, accounted
for as a reduction of Piltel&#146;s investment in Meralco.</p>

revenues, in which electricity accounts for 97% of the total, decreased
slightly by 3.6% due primarily to a 0.69 per kWh decrease in
average generation and transmission charges, partially offset by the increase
in kilowatt hour-consumption for the year and the implementation of the PBR (Performance-Based
Regulation)-based rate of 0.257 per kWh-adjustment
starting May 2009, Meralco&#146;s first distribution rate adjustment after almost

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><b><u>Outlook</u></b></p>

<p 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">For 2010, we forecast
service revenues to reach P150 billion, a 3% or P 4 billion growth over
2009. Growth is expected to come from broadband, fixed line revenues from the
corporate and SME markets, and improvements in the BPO business.  The cellular
business faces challenges given high market penetration, the market&#146;s
increasing preference for unlimited offers and multiple SIM ownership, as well
as competition from social networking and broadband.</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">We expect EBITDA to grow
to P 88 billion, with EBITDA margin slightly lower than 59% with the increased
contribution from the broadband business, where margins are lower than our
traditional businesses due to marketing subsidies and the added cost of
international bandwidth.  Increased subsidies planned to further seed and grow
the broadband business will result in increased operating expenses this year.</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">Notwithstanding the
growth in service revenues and EBITDA, we expect core net income for 2010 to be
slightly higher than P41 billion, due to projected higher net financing
charges by P3bn.  This is on account of higher debt levels and lower cash
balances.</p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><u>&nbsp;</u></p>

<p style='margin-left:0in;text-indent:0in' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><u>Conclusion</u></p>

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

<p style='margin-bottom:16.0pt;text-align:justify;text-justify:
inter-ideograph;text-autospace:none' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">&#147;As we put 2009 behind us, we can take pride in producing
revenue and profit growth in a year beset with challenges, be it the lagged
effect of the global recession or the &#147;swine flu&#148; outbreak and the successive
natural calamities that battered the country.  Moreover, our third successive
dividend payout of 100 percent of our core earnings speaks volumes of the
strength of this company.</p>

<p style='margin-bottom:16.0pt;text-align:justify;text-justify:
inter-ideograph;text-autospace:none' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">We see 2010 as another year fraught with challenges &#150;
competition shows no signs of abating, consumer wallets are tightening,
elections notwithstanding, and alternative means of communications such as
social networking are real threats to our mainstream businesses. Furthermore,
2010 is somewhat of a bridge year for the Group.  We will be investing heavily,
28.6 billion
in capex, in further expanding and improving our infrastructure, both
operationally and strategically;  and undertaking subsidies to seed broadband
take-up and growth. With the expected softness in revenues, we are looking to
control cash operating expenses in order to maintain profit growth. Our guidance
numbers reflect this guarded optimism - revenues and EBITDA of 150 billion and 88 billion, respectively,
and profit guidance of just over 41 billion.&#148;</p>

<p style='margin-bottom:16.0pt;text-align:justify;text-justify:
inter-ideograph;text-autospace:none' style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">That said, I have every confidence in the men and women of
the PLDT Group &#150; that they will find a way, as they have in the past, to beat
expectations,&#148; concluded Manuel V. Pangilinan, PLDT Chairman.</p>
