PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Our consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2011 and 2010 and for the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011, included in this annual report on Form 20-F have been prepared in conformity with IFRS.

In accordance with rule amendments adopted by the U.S. SEC, which became effective on March 4, 2008, we do not provide a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP.

In 2011, we changed the presentation of our outbound revenues to gross amounts before charges billed to us, where applicable, by other carriers. In doing so, interconnection costs are then presented as a separate line item in the expense section of our consolidated income statements. Prior to 2011, we presented outbound revenues net of the share of other carriers. We made this change to present outbound revenues on a gross basis to more correctly present and align our consolidated income statement presentation with the predominant global practice in the telecommunications industry. We accounted for the change retroactively and accordingly restated our comparative consolidated income statements. The change is for presentation only and has no impact on our consolidated net income, earnings per share, cash flows and financial position. See Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

PART I

Item 1. | Identity of Directors, Senior Management and Advisors

Not applicable.

Item 2. | Offer Statistics and Expected Timetable

Not applicable.

Item 3. | Key Information

Performance Indicators

We use a number of non-GAAP performance indicators to monitor financial performance. These are summarized below and discussed later in this report.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is measured as net income excluding depreciation and amortization, amortization of intangible assets, asset impairment on noncurrent assets, financing costs, interest income, equity share in net earnings (losses) of associates and joint ventures, foreign exchange gains (losses) – net, gains (losses) on derivative financial instruments – net, provision for (benefit from) income tax and other income. Adjusted EBITDA is monitored by the management for each business unit separately for purposes of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because our management believes that it is widely used by investors in their analysis of the performance of PLDT and can assist them in their comparison of PLDT’s performance with those of other companies in the technology, media and telecommunications sector. We also present adjusted EBITDA because it is used by some investors as a way to measure a company’s ability to incur and service debt, make capital expenditures and meet working capital requirements. Companies in the technology, media and telecommunications sector have historically reported adjusted EBITDA as a supplement to financial measures in accordance with IFRS or United States GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our performance, nor should adjusted EBITDA be considered an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to any other measure determined in accordance with IFRS. Unlike net income, adjusted EBITDA does not include depreciation and amortization or financing costs and, therefore, does not reflect current or future capital expenditures or the cost of capital. We compensate for these limitations by using adjusted EBITDA as only one of several comparative tools, together with IFRS-based measurements, to assist in the evaluation of operating performance. Such IFRS-based measurements include income before income tax, net income, cash flows from operations and cash flow data. We have significant uses of cash flows, including capital expenditures, interest payments, debt principal repayments, taxes and other non-recurring charges, which are not reflected in adjusted EBITDA. Our calculation of adjusted EBITDA may be different from the calculation methods used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.

##### Table of Contents

A reconciliation of our consolidated adjusted EBITDA to our consolidated net income for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 is presented in Item 5. “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects – Management’s Financial Review” and Note 4 – Operating Segment Information to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18.

Core Income

Core income is measured as net income attributable to equity holders of PLDT (net income less net income attributable to non-controlling interests), excluding foreign exchange gains (losses) – net, gains (losses) on derivative financial instruments – net, asset impairment on noncurrent assets, other nonrecurring gains (losses), net of tax effect of aforementioned adjustments, as applicable, and similar adjustments to equity share in net earnings (losses) of associates and joint ventures. Core income results are monitored by the management for each business unit separately for purposes of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. Also, core income is used by the management as a basis of determining the level of dividend payouts to shareholders and basis of granting incentives to employees. Core income should not be considered as an alternative to income before income tax or net income determined in accordance with IFRS as an indicator of our performance. Unlike income before income tax, core income does not include foreign exchange gains and losses, gains and losses on derivative financial instruments, asset impairments and other non-recurring gains and losses. We compensate for these limitations by using core income as only one of several comparative tools, together with IFRS-based measurements, to assist in the evaluation of operating performance. Such IFRS-based measurements include income before income tax and net income. Our calculation of core income may be different from the calculation methods used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. A reconciliation of our consolidated core income to our consolidated net income for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 is presented in Item 5. “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects – Management’s Financial Review” and Note 4 – Operating Segment Information to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18.

Selected Financial Data

The selected consolidated financial information below as at December 31, 2011 and 2010 and for the three years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, our consolidated financial statements, and the accompanying notes, included elsewhere in Item 18 of this annual report on Form 20-F. As disclosed above under “Presentation of Financial Information,” our consolidated financial statements as at and for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008 and 2007 have been prepared and presented in conformity with IFRS.

Our current policy is to declare and pay dividends taking into consideration the interests of our shareholders as well as our working capital, capital expenditures and debt servicing requirements. We also take into consideration our ability to meet loan covenant requirements in the declaration and payment of dividends as discussed in Note 19 – Equity and Note 20 – Interest-bearing Financial Liabilities to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18. The retention of earnings is necessary to meet the funding requirements of our business expansion and development programs. Unappropriated retained earnings of PLDT include undistributed earnings, representing accumulated equity in the net earnings of our subsidiaries, which are not available for distribution as dividends until the accumulated equity is received in the form of dividends from such subsidiaries. Dividends are generally paid in Philippine pesos. In the case of shareholders residing outside the Philippines, PLDT’s transfer agent in Manila, Philippines, which acts as the dividend-disbursing agent, converts the Philippine peso dividends into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rates and remits the dollar dividends abroad, net of any applicable withholding tax.

Exchange Rates

The Philippine government does not administratively fix the exchange rate between the Philippine peso and the U.S. dollar. Since August 1, 1992, a market average rate has been determined daily in inter-bank trading using the Philippine Dealing System, known as the Philippine Dealing System Reference Rate. The Philippine Dealing System is a specialized off-floor direct dealing service for the trading of Philippine pesos-U.S. dollars by member banks of the Bankers Association of the Philippines, or BAP, and BSP, the central bank of the Philippines. All members of the BAP are required to make their Philippine peso-U.S. dollar trades through this system, which was established by Telerate Financial Information Network of Hong Kong.

The following table shows the exchange rates between the Philippine peso and the U.S. dollar, expressed in Philippine pesos per U.S. dollar, for the periods indicated, based on the volume-weighted average exchange rate for each business day in each of the periods presented:

Risk Factors

You should consider carefully all of the information in this annual report, including the risks and uncertainties described below. If any of the following risks actually occurs, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations and the trading price of our ADSs could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Relating to Us

We face competition from well-established telecommunications operators and may face competition from new entrants, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

In 1993, the Philippine government liberalized the Philippine telecommunications industry and opened the Philippine telecommunications market to new entrants. At present, following the acquisition of Digitel by PLDT, the number of major players in the industry has been reduced to three major LECs, 11 international gateway facility providers and three major cellular operators in the country. Many entrants into the Philippine telecommunications market have entered into strategic alliances with foreign telecommunications companies, which provide them access to technology and funding support, as well as service innovations and marketing strategies. We cannot assure you that the number of providers of telecommunication services will not increase in the future or that competition for customers will not cause our cellular and fixed line subscribers to switch to other operators, or otherwise cause us to increase our marketing expenditures or reduce our rates, resulting in a reduction in our profitability.

Competition in the cellular telecommunications industry is particularly intense, with network coverage, quality of service, product offerings, and price dictating subscriber preference. Recently, operators have grown more aggressive in maintaining and growing market share, especially in light of a maturing market. Our principal cellular competitor, Globe, has introduced aggressive marketing campaigns and promotions, such as unlimited voice and SMS offers. In the same way, Smart is also continuously innovating its product and conducting promotions, which may affect its cellular revenue growth. Specifically, in response to the unlimited voice and text offers by Globe, Smart introduced promotions allowing Smart and Talk ‘N Text subscribers to avail of unlimited on-network (Smart-to-Smart) voice calls or unlimited on-network (Smart-to-Smart) text messages at a fixed rate. Due to competition from other well-established telecommunications operators, we cannot assure you that the additional marketing expenses incurred by us for these promotions, nor can we assure you that, in response to rate pressures from our competitors, the potential loss of customers, decrease in rates or the increase in capital expenditures required for our continued capacity expansion necessary to accommodate the continued increases expected in call and text volumes as a result of unlimited voice and text offers will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

The cellular telecommunications industry may not continue to grow.

The majority of our total revenues are currently derived from the provision of cellular services to customers in the Philippines. As a result, we depend on the continued development and growth of this industry. The cellular penetration rate in the country, however, has already reached an estimated 97%, counting for multiple SIM card ownership, thus the industry may well be considered mature. Further growth of the market depends on many factors beyond our control, including the continued introduction of new and enhanced cellular devices, the price levels of cellular handsets, consumer tastes and preferences and amount of disposable income of existing and potential subscribers. Any economic, technological or other developments resulting in a reduction in demand for cellular services or otherwise cause Philippine cellular telecommunications industry to stop growing or reduce the rate of its growth, could materially harm our business and prospects.

##### Table of Contents

Our results of operations have been, and may continue to be, adversely affected by competition in, and the introduction of new services, which could put additional pressures on the traditional international and national long distance services.

The international long distance business has historically been one of our major sources of revenue. However, due to competition, the steep decline in international settlement rates that are paid to us by foreign telecommunications carriers for termination of international calls on our network, and the growing popularity of the so-called “over-the-top” service providers that offer social networking, instant messaging and VoIP services, revenues generated from our international long distance business have declined in recent years.

Revenues from international long distance services could continue to decline in the future for a variety of reasons, such as:

| • |  | increases in competition from other domestic and international telecommunications providers;

| • |  | advances in technology;

| • |  | the growing popularity of alternative providers offering “over-the-top” services like social networking, instant messaging, internet telephony, also known as VoIP services; or

| • |  | alternative providers of broadband capacity.

The continued high cellular penetration in the Philippines and the prevalence of SMS have negatively impacted our national long distance business in recent years. Moreover, net settlement payments between PLDT and other foreign telecommunications carriers for origination and termination of international call traffic between the Philippines and other countries, which have been our predominant source of foreign currency revenues, have been declining in recent years. A continued decline in our foreign currency revenues could increase our exposure to risks from any possible future declines in the value of the Philippine peso against the U.S. dollar. As a result, we cannot assure you that we will be able to adequately increase our other revenues to make up for any adverse impact of a further decline in our net settlement payments. We cannot assure you that we can generate new revenue streams to fully offset the declines in our traditional fixed line long distance businesses, thus our revenues and profitability could be materially reduced and our growth and prospects could suffer.

Our business is significantly affected by governmental laws and regulations, including regulations in respect of our franchises, rates and taxes, and laws relating to anti-competitive practices and monopoly.

We operate our business under franchises, each of which is subject to amendment, termination or repeal by the Philippine Congress. Additionally, PLDT operates pursuant to various provisional authorities and CPCNs, which have been granted by the NTC and will expire between now and 2028. See Item 4. “Information on the Company – Licenses and Regulations” for a description of our licenses. Some of PLDT’s CPCNs and provisional authorities have already expired. However, PLDT filed applications for extension of these CPCNs and provisional authorities prior to their respective expiration dates and is therefore entitled to continue to conduct its business under its existing CPCNs and provisional authorities pending the NTC’s decisions on these applications. Because PLDT filed the applications for extension on a timely basis, we expect that these applications will be granted. However, we cannot assure you that the NTC will grant these applications. Smart also operates its cellular, international long distance, national long distance and global mobile personal communications via satellite services as well as international private leased circuits pursuant to CPCNs, which will expire upon the expiration of its franchise. Smart’s franchise is due to expire on March 27, 2017, 25 years after the date on which its current franchise was granted. On June 4, 2008, the NTC also granted DMPI a CPCN to operate and maintain a nationwide CMTS, for a period coterminous with the life of its existing franchise which is valid until December 11, 2027, 25 years after the date of its issuance.

The NTC also regulates the rates we are permitted to charge for services that have not yet been deregulated, such as local exchange services. We cannot assure you that the NTC will not impose additional obligations on us that could lead to the revocation of our licenses if not adhered to and/or to the reduction in our total revenues or profitability. In addition, the NTC could adopt changes to the regulations governing our interconnection with other telecommunications companies or the rates and terms upon which we provide services to our customers. The occurrence of any of which could materially reduce our revenues and profitability.

The PLDT Group is also subject to a number of national and local taxes. We cannot assure you that the PLDT Group will not be subject to new and/or additional taxes and that the PLDT Group would be able to impose

13

##### Table of Contents

additional charges or fees on its customers to compensate for the imposition of such taxes. There are bills in the 15th Philippine Congress that propose to tax telecommunications services. HB No. 138 proposes to impose a 7% Computer Education Tax on receipts from cellular phone calls to be borne by cellular phone companies that will be used in the creation of a special computer literacy education fund for public schools. HB No. 976 proposes to impose a gross receipts tax on cellular phone companies to finance the computer literacy program of public schools. HB Nos. 1030 and 1279 propose to require cellular phone companies to set up local assembly and packaging plants for the manufacture of cellular phone units for the purpose of taxation. For more details on relevant proposed regulations affecting our business, see Item 4. “Information on the Company – Licenses and Regulations – Material Effects of Regulation on our Business”. If any of these bills are enacted into law, such legislation could materially reduce our profitability and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. We cannot assure you that the PLDT Group will be able to impose additional charges or fees on its customers to compensate for the imposition of such taxes or charges, or for the loss of fees and/or charges.

Moreover, as one of the leading telecommunications service providers in the Philippines for fixed line, cellular and broadband services, we are subject to laws and regulations relating to anti-competitive practices and anti-monopoly. For example, Section 700 of NTC Memorandum Circular No. 8-9-95 requires us to seek the approval of the NTC with respect to rates of non-deregulated services in order to ensure that a healthy competitive environment is fostered within the industry. Also, Article II, Section 4 (g) of R.A. No. 7925 mandates us to interconnect our facilities with those of other authorized public network operators and other providers of telecommunications services in order to achieve a viable, efficient, reliable and universal telecommunications services. Of late, even the executive branch of the government has exhibited strong interest in enforcing anti-competitive and anti-monopolistic measures with the signing by the President of the Philippines of Executive Order, or EO, No. 45 last June 9, 2011. EO No. 45 designated the Department of Justice, or the DOJ, as the Competition Authority and established the Office for Competition under it, to among others, investigate violations of competition laws and prosecute violators thereof. While our business practices have not in the past been found to have violated any laws and regulations related to anti-competition and anti-monopoly, we cannot assure you that the relevant governmental regulators will not, in the future, find our business practices to have an anti-competitive effect on the Philippines telecommunications industry, nor can we assure you that we will not be found to have violated the relevant laws and regulations relating to anti-competition and anti-monopoly in the future. For example, prior to the acquisition of the Digitel Group, there were four major LECs (PLDT, Digitel, Innove and BayanTel) and three cellular service providers (Smart, DMPI and Globe) in the Philippines. On October 26, 2011, we completed the acquisition of the Digitel Group, which is the operator of Sun Cellular, one of the three major cellular service providers in the Philippines. As a result of the acquisition, the number of LECs and cellular service providers in the Philippines was reduced to three and two, respectively, leaving Globe as our sole competitor in the cellular service market. In order to mitigate the apparent anti-competitive effect of the acquisition, we agreed, as part of the NTC’s decision to grant its consent for the acquisition, to divest ourselves of the frequency spectrum and associated licenses held by CURE, one of Smart’s subsidiaries. Any future expansion in our services, particularly in our cellular services, could subject us to additional conditions in the granting of our franchises by the NTC and to increased regulatory scrutiny, which could harm our reputation and business, and which could have a material adverse effect on our growth and prospects. In addition, the occurrence of any such event could impose substantial costs or cause interruptions or considerable delays in the provision, development or expansion of our services. Delay or failure to receive any required franchises, licenses or regulatory approvals could result in the suspension of our services or abandonment of any planned expansions, thereby affecting our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

The NTC may implement proposed changes in existing regulations and introduce new regulations, which may result in increased competition and/or changes in rates, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and profitability.

The NTC may regulate the rates and manner in which we charge our customers.

On April 14, 2009, the NTC released implementing guidelines on developing reference access offers, which are statements of the prices, terms and conditions under which a telecommunications carrier proposes to provide access to its network orfacilities to another such carrier or value-added service provider.

For example, on July 3, 2009, NTC issued Memorandum Circular No. 03-07-2009 promulgating an extension of expiration of prepaid loads from two months to various expiration periods ranging from three days to 120 days. Smart has been implementing the new validity period of prepaid loads since July 19, 2009.

In addition, on July 7, 2009, the NTC issued Memorandum Circular No. 04-07-2009, further amending the Memorandum Circular No. 03-03-2005A (Rules and Regulation on Broadcast Messaging), which prohibits content and/or information providers from initiating push messages. Memorandum Circular No. 04-07-2009 that further provides that broadcasts, which can include product campaigns, and requests for services must be initiated by the subscribers and not forced upon them by public telecommunications entities and/or content providers. It further requires that a notification be sent to subscribers to give subscribers an option whether to continue with the availed service.

In addition, on July 23, 2009 the NTC issued Memorandum Circular No. 05-07-2009 mandating cellular operators, including Smart and DMPI, to bill subscribers on a maximum six-second per pulse basis instead of the previous per minute basis. The NTC granted Smart and DMPI the provisional authority to charge new rates for the CMTS service and also directed Smart and DMPI to implement a six-second per pulse billing scheme on December 5, 2009. The implementation of this billing scheme has however resulted to a case which, as will be discussed in detail below, is now pending with the Philippine Supreme Court after Smart and CURE filed their petitions for review of the decision of the Court of Appeals on March 15, 2012 and March 12, 2012, respectively.

The NTC may call on carriers, other industry players and the public in general to public hearings with respect to certain proposed regulations affecting the industry in general or solicit comments from said parties with respect to consultative documents issued by the NTC on major industry issues, like the August 2006 significant market power, or smp, obligations. Under the said consultative documents, for example, certain obligations are proposed to be imposed on carriers with SMP by using a roadmap which consists of the following critical processes: (1) defining markets to be used as basis for regulatory intervention; (2) determining if one or several operators in the defined markets have the degree of market power that merit regulatory intervention; (3) identifying appropriate SMP obligations to achieve policy objectives; and (4) determining conditions that justify withdrawal of regulation.

This SMP issue, as well as the consultative documents thereon, were again revived at the height of the hearings on the acquisition of the Digitel Group. The PLDT Group, in response to a letter issued by the NTC Commissioner on the matter, reiterated its comments on the consultative documents. No further action was taken by the NTC on the matter following the receipt of PLDT’s reply to the NTC Commissioner’s letter. In connection with this and also at the height of the hearings on the acquisition of the Digitel Group, the President of the Philippines issued Executive Order (EO) No. 45 on June 9, 2011 designating the Department of Justice, or the DOJ, as the Competition Authority and established the Office for Competition under it. As Competition Authority, the DoJ is tasked to investigate violations of competition laws and prosecute violators; supervise competition in markets by enforcing such laws; as well as prepare, publish and disseminate studies and reports on competition to inform and guide industry and consumers. Among others it will target monopolies, cartels and other combinations in restraint of trade. To date however, the DOJ has yet to promulgate guidelines on how it will exercise its powers under the said EO.

On July 15, 2011, the NTC issued Memorandum Circular No. 7-7-2011 which required broadband service providers to specify the minimum broadband/internet connection speed and service reliability and the service rates in advertisements, flyers, brochures and service agreements. The said Memorandum Circular also set the minimum service reliability of broadband service to 80%.

Further, last December 19, 2011, the NTC issued a Decision in NTC ADM Case 2009-048 which lowered the interconnection charge to/from LEC and to/from CMTS to Php2.50 per minute, from Php4.00 per minute for LEC to CMTS and Php3.00 per minute from CMTS to LEC, making it in parity with each other. PLDT and Smart separately filed their respective Motions for Reconsideration alleging among others that interconnection, including the rates thereof, should be by law a product of bilateral negotiations between the parties and the Decision is unconstitutional as it is an invalid exercise by the NTC of its quasi-legislative powers and violates the constitutional guarantee against non-impairment of contracts.

Due to the regulatory power of the NTC, as set forth above, we cannot assure you that the NTC will not impose changes to the current regulatory framework in the future, which could lead to increased competition or negatively affect the rates we can charge for our services. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and prospects.

The franchise of Smart and DMPI may be revoked due to their failure to conduct a public offering of their shares.

In order to diversify the ownership base of public utilities, the Public Telecommunications Policy Act of the Philippines, Republic Act, or R.A., 7925, requires a telecommunications entity with regulated types of services to

15

##### Table of Contents

make a public offering through the stock exchanges, representing at least 30% of its aggregate common shares within a period of five years from: (a) the date the law first becomes effective; or (b) the entity’s first start of commercial operations, whichever date is later. As of the latest practicable date, Smart and DMPI have yet to conduct a public offering of their shares. Consequently, the Philippine Congress may revoke the franchise of Smart and DMPI for their failure to comply with the requirement under R.A. 7925 on the public offering of their shares. A quo warranto case may also be filed against Smart and DMPI by the Office of the Solicitor General of the Philippines for the revocation of the respective franchises of Smart and DMPI on the ground of violation of R.A. 7925.

Although the position taken by Smart and DMPI is that such provision is merely directory and that the policy underlying the requirement for telecommunication entities to conduct a public offering should be deemed to have been achieved when PLDT acquired a 100% equity interest in Smart in 2000 and DTPI which is now majority-owned by PLDT, owned 10% equity interest in DMPI, since PLDT was then and continues to be a publicly listed company, there can be no assurance that the Philippine Congress will agree with such position. In September 2004, Senate Bill No. 1675 was filed seeking to declare that a telecommunications entity shall be deemed to have complied with the requirement of making a public offering of its shares if two-thirds of its outstanding voting stock are owned and controlled directly or indirectly, by a listed company. However, we cannot assure you that such bill will be enacted or that the Philippine Congress will not revoke the franchise of Smart and DMPI or the Office of Solicitor General of the Philippines will not initiate a quo warranto proceeding against Smart and DMPI for the revocation of their respective franchises for failure to comply with the provision under R.A. 7925 on the public offering of shares, the occurrence of any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

If we fail to effect the divestment of CURE in accordance with the terms of, or in a manner contemplated under the NTC’s approval of our acquisition of Digitel, the NTC may revoke its approval of any relevant franchises, licenses or permits held by Smart, any of which could significantly disrupt our operations and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

As part of the NTC’s decision to grant its consent to our acquisition of the Digitel Group, we agreed to divest ourselves of the frequency spectrum and associated franchises, licenses and permits held by CURE. Under the terms of the order issued by the NTC on October 26, 2011, (i) CURE will sell its Red Mobile business to Smart; and (ii) Smart will sell all of its rights and interests in CURE whose remaining assets will consist of its congressional franchise, certain frequency spectrum and related permits. For a detailed description of the divestment of CURE, see Item 4. “Information on the Company – Development Activities (2009-2011) – Divestment of CURE.”

As at March 22, 2012, CURE is in the process of completing the sale of its Red Mobile business, primarily consisting of subscriber base and fixed assets, to Smart in line with the commitment made by PLDT in the divestment plan presented to the NTC. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to effect the divestment of CURE within the time or in a manner contemplated under the order issued by the NTC. If we fail to effect the divestment of CURE in accordance with the terms of, or in a manner contemplated under the NTC’s approval of our acquisition of Digitel, the NTC may revoke its approval or any relevant franchises, licenses or permits held by Smart, any of which could significantly disrupt our operations and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

Red Mobile introduced its unlimited voice and SMS offering utilizing a secondary network powered by Smart. Red Mobile Unlimited offers unlimited Red-to-Red call and text, and unlimited Red-to-Red text packages, as well as unlimited call and text to all Smart subscribers.

Rapid changes in telecommunications technology may adversely affect the economics of our existing businesses and the value of our assets, increase our required capital expenditures and create new competition.

The global telecommunications industry has been characterized by rapid technological changes, and the Philippine market is not an exception. We cannot assure you that these developments will not result in competition from providers of new telecommunications services or the need to make substantial capital expenditures to upgrade our existing network infrastructure. Furthermore, the NTC has issued to Smart and our competitors licenses covering 3G cellular services, for which we have made significant investments in the rolling-out of these services. We are also continuing to upgrade our fixed-line network to a next generation, all-IP network and rolling out a wireless broadband network in order to expand our capability to provide broadband services, as well as upgrade and modernize our wireless cellular network in order to achieve greater operating and cost-efficiencies. However, these projects require and will continue to require significant capital expenditures over the next few years.

In addition, we now face growing competition not just from other telecommunications operators, but also from the so-called “over-the-top” service providers that offer social networking, instant messaging and VoIP services.

Our future success will depend on our ability to anticipate and adapt to these changes and to offer services that meet demands of our customers on a competitive and timely basis. However, we may be unable to obtain new technologies on a timely basis or on satisfactory terms or implement them in an appropriate or effective manner. Future development of new technologies, services or standards could require significant changes to our business model, negatively impact our existing businesses or necessitate new investments. In addition, new products and services may be expensive to develop and may result in increased competition. Such strategic initiatives and technological developments could require us to incur significant additional capital expenditures. As a result, we cannot assure you that we would be able to adopt or successfully implement new technologies, nor can we assure you that future technological changes will not adversely affect our operations or the competitiveness of our services.

If we are unable to install and maintain telecommunications facilities and equipment in a timely manner, we may not be able to maintain our current market share and the quality of our services, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Our business requires the regular installation of new, and the maintenance of existing, telecommunications transmission and other facilities and equipment, which are being undertaken. The installation and maintenance of these facilities and equipment are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, such as:

| • |  | shortages of equipment, materials and labor;

| • |  | work stoppages and labor disputes;

| • |  | interruptions resulting from inclement weather and other natural disasters;

| • |  | unforeseen engineering, environmental and geological problems; and

| • |  | unanticipated cost increases.

Any of these factors could give rise to delays or cost overruns in the installation of new facilities or equipment or could prevent us from properly maintaining the equipment used in our networks, and hence could affect our ability to maintain existing services and roll out new services, for example, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Our businesses depend on the reliability of our network infrastructure which is subject to physical, technological and other risks.

We depend, to a significant degree, on an uninterrupted operation of our network to provide our services. We also depend on robust information technology systems to enable us to conduct our operations. The development and operation of telecommunications networks are subject to physical, technological and other risks, which may cause interruptions in service or reduced capacity for customers. These risks include:

| • |  | physical damage;

| • |  | power loss;

17

##### Table of Contents

| • |  | capacity limitation;

| • |  | cable theft;

| • |  | software defects; and

| • |  | breaches of security by computer viruses, break-ins or otherwise.

The occurrence of any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on our ability to provide services to customers. While we are undertaking initiatives to prevent and/or mitigate the occurrence of said risks, including the preparation of a disaster recovery plan that aims to allow restoration of service at the earliest possible time from occurrence of an incident, there can be no assurance that these risks will not occur or that our initiatives will be effective should such risks occur.

We are exposed to cybersecurity risks, which may include the gaining of unauthorized access, data corruption, possible theft of intellectual property, stakeholder information or other sensitive data, the occurrence of any of which could significantly disrupt our business and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and stakeholder confidence.

Over the years, our continued dependence on the latest digital technologies in conducting our operations exposes our business to risks associated with cyber incidents. These cyber incidents may range from unintentional events to deliberate attacks. These may be carried out by parties with the intention to bring about something as simple as plain disruption of our operations to something as destructive as breaching our network security. Some network attacks can cause our telecommunications services of internal systems to be unavailable. Others can disrupt our business communication, such as SPAM. Moreover, others can cause the disclosure of confidential information, such as brute force attack.

In order to minimize our exposure to cybersecurity risks, we have deployed a multi-layered defense from the network to the host and up to the application level, so that if one defensive measure fails, there are other defensive measures which will continue to provide protection. However, we cannot assure you that any of such defenses will be effective against or neutralize the effects of any cyber incidents resulting from unintentional cyber security breaches or deliberate attacks on our network infrastructure or computer systems, nor can we assure you that our business will not be significantly disrupted in the event of such security breach or attack. If we fail to timely and effectively prevent the occurrence of any such cyber security incidents, or fail to promptly rectify any such incidents, our business could be significantly disrupted, our results of operations could be materially and adversely affected, and the confidence of our stakeholders could be lost.

Our businesses require substantial capital investment, which we may not be able to finance.

Our projects under development and the continued maintenance and improvement of our networks and services, including Smart’s projects, networks, platforms and services, require substantial ongoing capital investment. Our consolidated capital expenditures totaled Php31,207 million and Php28,766 million in 2011 and 2010, respectively. Our 2012 budget for consolidated capital expenditures is approximately Php38.1 billion, of which approximately Php13 billion is budgeted to be spent by PLDT, approximately Php18 billion is budgeted to be spent by Smart; approximately Php6 billion is budgeted to be spent by Digitel; and the balance represents the budgeted capital spending of our other subsidiaries. PLDT’s capital spending is intended principally to finance the continued build-out and upgrade of its broadband data and IP infrastructures and for its fixed line data services and the maintenance of its network. Smart’s capital spending is focused on expanding and upgrading its transmission network from the backbone up to last mile facilities to meet anticipated increased demand for cellular and broadband services in a highly-competitive playing field, including improvement of quality and subscriber experience, expansion of capacity and its accelerated network modernization program in order to achieve a greater operational and cost efficiencies. Digitel’s capital spending is intended principally to finance the expansion of fixed mobile convergence and continued upgrade of its core and transmission network to increase penetration, particularly in provincial areas.

Future strategic initiatives could require us to incur significant additional capital expenditures. We may be required to finance a portion of our future capital expenditures from external financing sources, which have not yet been fully arranged. There can be no assurance that financing for new projects will be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all. If we cannot complete our development programs or other capital projects on time due to our failure to obtain the required financing, our growth, results of operations, financial condition and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.

##### Table of Contents

Our debt instruments contain restrictive covenants which require us to maintain certain financial tests and our indebtedness could impair our ability to fulfill our financial obligations, service our other debt and carry out new financings.

As at December 31, 2011, we had consolidated total indebtedness of Php117,275 million, or US$2,670 million, and a consolidated ratio of debt to equity of 0.8 times, calculated as total debt on a consolidated basis divided by total equity attributable to equity holders of PLDT. Our existing debt instruments contain covenants which, among other things, require PLDT to maintain certain financial ratios and other financial tests, calculated on the basis of PFRS on a consolidated and non-consolidated basis, and limit our ability to incur indebtedness. For a description of some of these covenants, see Item 5. “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects – Liquidity and Capital Resources – Financing Activities – Debt Covenants.”

Our indebtedness and the requirements and limitations imposed by our debt covenants could have important consequences. For example, we may be required to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow to payments on our indebtedness, which could reduce the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate requirements.

The principal factors that can negatively affect our ability to comply with the financial ratios and other financial tests under our debt instruments are depreciation of the Philippine peso relative to the U.S. dollar, poor operating performance of PLDT and our consolidated subsidiaries, impairment or similar charges in respect of investments or other long-lived assets that may be recognized by PLDT and its consolidated subsidiaries, and increases in our interest expenses. Approximately 47% of our total consolidated debts were denominated in foreign currencies as at December 31, 2011, principally in U.S. dollars, many of these financial ratios and other tests are expected to be negatively affected by any weakening of the Philippine peso.

We have maintained compliance with all of our financial ratios and covenants, as measured under PFRS, under our loan agreements and other debt instruments. However, if negative factors adversely affect our financial ratios, we may be unable to maintain compliance with these ratios and covenants or unable to incur new debt. Inability to comply with the financial ratios and covenants or raise new financing could result in a declaration of default and acceleration of maturities of some or all of our indebtedness. The terms of some of our debt instruments have no minimum amount for cross-default.

If we are unable to meet our debt service obligations or comply with our debt covenants, we could be forced to restructure or refinance our indebtedness, seek additional equity capital or sell assets. An inability to effect these measures successfully could result in a declaration of default and an acceleration of maturities of some or all of our indebtedness, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our results of operations and our financial position could be materially and adversely affected if the Philippine peso significantly fluctuates against the U.S. dollar.

A substantial portion of our indebtedness, related interest expenses, our capital expenditures and a portion of our expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars and other foreign currencies, whereas most of our revenues are denominated in Philippine pesos. As at December 31, 2011, approximately 47% of our total consolidated indebtedness was foreign currency-denominated, of which approximately 37% of our total consolidated indebtedness was unhedged.

A depreciation of the Philippine peso against the U.S. dollar would increase the amount of our U.S. dollar-denominated debt obligations and operating and interest expenses in Philippine peso terms. In the event that the Philippine peso depreciates against the U.S. dollar, we may be unable to generate enough funds through operations and other means to offset the resulting increase in our obligations in Philippine peso terms. Moreover, a depreciation of the Philippine peso against the U.S. dollar may result in our recognition of significant foreign exchange losses, which could materially and adversely affect our results of operations. A depreciation of the Philippine peso could also cause us not to be in compliance with the financial covenants imposed on us by our lenders under certain loan agreements and other indebtedness. Further, fluctuations in the Philippine peso value and of interest rates impact the mark-to-market gains/losses of certain of our financial debt instruments, which were designated as non-hedged items.

##### Table of Contents

On the other hand, approximately 30% and 17% of the PLDT Group’s consolidated service revenues and expenses, respectively, are either denominated in U.S. dollars and/or are linked to the U.S. dollar. In this respect, an appreciation of the weighted average exchange rate of the Philippine peso against the U.S. dollar decreases our revenues and expenses, and consequently, our cash flow from operations in terms of Philippine peso.

The Philippine peso has been subject to significant fluctuations in recent years. From 2003 to 2004, the Philippine peso depreciated from a high of Php52.02 on May 8, 2003 to a low of Php56.44 on October 14, 2004. While the Philippine peso appreciated in 2005, 2006 and 2007, it depreciated in 2008 to a low of Php49.98 and closed at Php47.65 as at December 31, 2008. In 2009 and 2010, the Philippine peso again appreciated to a high of Php42.52 and closed at Php43.81 as at December 31, 2010. In 2011, the Philippine peso further appreciated to a high of Php41.96 but closed the year at Php43.92. However, we cannot assure you that the Philippine peso will not depreciate and be subject to significant fluctuations going forward, due to a range of factors, including:

| • |  | political and economic developments affecting the Philippines, including the level of remittances from overseas Filipino workers;

| • |  | global economic and financial trends;

| • |  | the volatility of regional currencies, particularly the Japanese yen;

| • |  | any interest rate increases by the Federal Reserve Bank of the United States; and

| • |  | changes in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to Philippine peso, resulting from events such as higher demand for U.S. dollars by both banks and domestic businesses to service their maturing U.S. dollar obligations or foreign exchange traders including banks covering their short U.S. dollar positions, among others.

Our subsidiaries could be limited in their ability to pay dividends to us due to internal cash requirements and their creditors having superior claims over their assets and cash flows, which could materially and adversely affect our financial condition.

A majority of our total revenues and cash flow from operations is derived from our subsidiaries, particularly Smart. Smart has significant internal cash requirements for debt service, capital expenditures and operating expenses and as a result, may be financially unable to pay any dividends to PLDT. Although Smart has been making dividend payments to PLDT regularly since December 2002, there can be no assurance that PLDT will continue to receive these dividends or other distributions, or otherwise be able to derive liquidity from Smart or any other subsidiary or investee in the future.

Creditors of our subsidiaries generally have priority claims over our subsidiaries’ assets and cash flows. We and our creditors will effectively be subordinated to the existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, of our subsidiaries, except that we may be recognized as a creditor with respect to loans we have made to subsidiaries. If we are recognized as a creditor of a subsidiary, our claim will still be subordinated to any indebtedness secured by assets of the subsidiary and any indebtedness of the subsidiary otherwise deemed senior to the indebtedness we hold.

We may have difficulty meeting our debt payment obligations if we do not continue to receive cash dividends from our subsidiaries and our financial condition could be materially and adversely affected as a result.

We may not be successful in our acquisitions of, and investments in, other companies and businesses, and may therefore be unable to fully implement our business strategy.

As part of our growth strategy, we may make acquisitions and investments in companies or businesses. On October 26, 2011, we acquired a controlling interest in the Digitel Group, another major LEC and wireless operator in the Philippines. The success of our acquisitions and investments depends on a number of factors, such as:

| • |  | our ability to identify suitable opportunities for investment or acquisition;

| • |  | our ability to reach an acquisition or investment agreement on terms that are satisfactory to us or at all;

| • |  | the extent to which we are able to exercise control over the acquired company;

20

##### Table of Contents

| • |  | the economic, business or other strategic objectives and goals of the acquired company compared to those of the PLDT Group, as well as the ability to execute the identified strategies in order to generate fair returns on the investment; and

| • |  | our ability to successfully integrate the acquired company or business with our existing businesses.

Any of our contemplated acquisitions and investments may not be consummated due to reasons or factors beyond our control. Even if any contemplated acquisitions and investments are consummated, we may not be able to realize any or all of the anticipated benefits of such acquisitions and investments and we cannot assure you that the consummation of such acquisitions and investments will not result in losses for us for a prolonged period of time. Moreover, if we are unsuccessful in our contemplated acquisitions and investments, we may not be able to fully implement our business strategy to maintain or grow certain of our businesses and our results of operations and financial position could be materially and adversely affected.

A significant number of PLDT’s shares are held by three shareholders, which may not act in the interests of other shareholders or stakeholders in PLDT.

The First Pacific Group and its Philippine affiliates had beneficial ownership of approximately 26% in PLDT’s outstanding common stock as at February 29, 2012, taking into account shares purchased from JG Summit Holdings, or JGS, pursuant to an option agreement in connection with the Digitel acquisition. See Item 4. “Information on the Company – Historical Background and Development.” This is the largest block of PLDT’s common stock that is directly or indirectly under common ownership.

Pursuant to publicly available filings made with the PSE, as at February 29, 2012, NTT Communications and NTT DOCOMO together beneficially owned approximately 20% of PLDT’s outstanding common stock, taking into account shares purchased from JGS pursuant to an option agreement in connection with the Digitel acquisition. See Item 1. “Information on the Company – Historical Background and Development” for further discussion. First Pacific and certain of its affiliates, or the FP Parties, NTT Communications, NTT DOCOMO and PLDT entered into a Cooperation Agreement, dated January 31, 2006, pursuant to which, among other things, certain rights of NTT Communications under the Stock Purchase and Strategic Investment Agreement dated September 28, 1999, or the Strategic Agreement, and the Shareholders Agreement dated March 24, 2000, or the Shareholders Agreement, were extended to NTT DOCOMO. See Item 7. “Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions” for further details regarding the shareholdings of NTT Communications and NTT DOCOMO in PLDT. As a result of the Cooperation Agreement, NTT Communications and NTT DOCOMO, in coordination with each other, have contractual veto rights over a number of major decisions and transactions that PLDT could make or enter into, including:

| • |  | capital expenditures in excess of US$50 million;

| • |  | any investments, if the aggregate amount of all investments for the previous 12 months is greater than US$25 million in the case of all investments to any existing investees and US$100 million in the case of all investments to any new or existing investees, determined on a rolling monthly basis;

| • |  | any investments in a specific investee, if the cumulative value of all investments made by us in that investee is greater than US$10 million in the case of an existing investee and US$50 million in the case of a new investee;

| • |  | issuance of common stock or stock that is convertible into common stock;

| • |  | new business activities other than those we currently engage in; and

| • |  | merger or consolidation.

Moreover, as a result of the Shareholders Agreement, the Cooperation Agreement and their respective stockholdings, the FP Parties and/or, NTT Communications and/or NTT DOCOMO are able to influence our actions and corporate governance, including:

| • |  | elections of PLDT’s directors; and

| • |  | approval of major corporate actions, which require the vote of common stockholders.

Additionally, pursuant to amendments effected by the Cooperation Agreement to the Stock Purchase and Strategic Investment Agreement and the Shareholders Agreement, upon NTT Communications and NTT DOCOMO and their respective subsidiaries owning in the aggregate 20% or more of PLDT’s shares of common stock and for as

21

##### Table of Contents

long as they continue to own in the aggregate at least 17.5% of PLDT’s shares of common stock then outstanding, NTT DOCOMO has additional rights under the Stock Purchase and Strategic Investment Agreement and Shareholders Agreement, including that:

| • |  | NTT DOCOMO is entitled to nominate one additional NTT DOCOMO nominee to the board of directors of each of PLDT and Smart;

| • |  | PLDT must consult NTT DOCOMO no later than 30 days prior to the first submission to the board of PLDT or certain of its committees of any proposal of investment in an entity that would primarily engage in a business that would be in direct competition or substantially the same business opportunities, customer base, products or services with business carried on by NTT DOCOMO, or which NTT DOCOMO has announced publicly an intention to carry on;

| • |  | PLDT must procure that Smart does not cease to carry on its business, dispose of all of its assets, issue common shares, merge or consolidate, or effect winding up or liquidation without PLDT first consulting with NTT DOCOMO no later than 30 days prior to the first submission to the board of PLDT or Smart, or certain of its committees; and

| • |  | PLDT must first consult with NTT DOCOMO no later than 30 days prior to the first submission to the board of PLDT or certain of its committees for the approval of any transfer of Smart’s common capital stock by any member of the PLDT Group to any person who is not a member of the PLDT Group.

The FP Parties and/or NTT Communications and/or NTT DOCOMO may exercise their respective influence over these decisions and transactions in a manner that could be contrary to the interests of other shareholders or stakeholders in PLDT.

If a major shareholder sells its interest in PLDT, the transaction may result in an event of default under certain circumstances.

If First Pacific Group and its Philippine affiliates or NTT Communications sells all or a portion of their equity interest in PLDT, under certain circumstances, such sale may give rise to an obligation for PLDT to make an offer to purchase its outstanding debt under its US$250 million 11.375% notes due May 2012. As at December 31, 2011, Php6,403 million in principal amount of PLDT’s indebtedness is directly subject to a redemption upon any change in the major shareholding of PLDT or to an offer to purchase requirement. In such event, if PLDT fails to complete an offer to purchase the affected debts, all of its debt could become immediately due and payable as a result of various cross-default and acceleration provisions.

Failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 could adversely impact investor confidence and the market price of our common shares and ADSs, and have a material adverse effect on our business, our reputation, financial condition and results of operations.

Effective internal control over financial reporting is necessary for us to provide reasonable assurance with respect to our financial reports and to effectively prevent fraud. If we are unable to provide reasonable assurance with respect to our financial reports and effectively prevent fraud, our reputation and results of operations could be harmed.

We are required to comply with various Philippine and U.S. laws and regulations on internal control. For example, pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, beginning with the Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, we have been required to include a report by our management on our internal control over financial reporting in our Annual Reports on Form 20-F that contains an assessment by our management on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. In addition, an independent registered public accounting firm must express an opinion on our internal control over financial reporting based on its audits.

However, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements because of its inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error, the circumvention or overriding of controls, or fraud. Therefore, even effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements. If we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal control over financial reporting, including our failure to implement required new or improved controls, or if we experience difficulties in their implementation, our business and operating results could be harmed, we could fail to

meet our reporting obligations and there could be a material adverse effect on our business, our reputation, financial condition and results of operations, and the market prices of our common shares and ADSs could decline significantly.

Risks Relating to the Philippines

PLDT’s business may be adversely affected by political or social or economic instability in the Philippines.

The Philippines is subject to political, social and economic volatility that, directly or indirectly, could have a material adverse impact on our ability to sustain our business and growth.

For example, impeachment proceedings have been started against the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the Philippines. The proceedings have raised concerns about the judicial system in the country.

Moreover, the Philippines, similar to other non-oil producing countries, has been struggling unsuccessfully to keep oil prices from increasing further due to factors beyond the Philippine government’s control. The continuing rise in oil prices may have adverse implications on the Philippine economy in the future.

Furthermore, the Philippine economy has experienced periods of slow growth and significant depreciation of the Philippine peso. The Philippine government is also facing a fiscal deficit that the government is aiming to eliminate in the near future by implementing a number of economic reforms.

The fiscal deficit position of the Philippine government have resulted in increased concerns about the political and economic stability of the country. We cannot assure you that the political environment in the Philippines will be stable or that the current or any future government will adopt economic policies that are conducive to sustained economic growth or which do not impact adversely on the current regulatory environment for the telecommunications and other companies.

If foreign exchange controls were to be imposed, our ability to meet our foreign currency payment obligations could be adversely affected.

The Philippine government has, in the past, instituted restrictions on the conversion of the Philippine peso into foreign currencies and the use of foreign exchange received by Philippine companies to pay foreign currency-denominated obligations. The Monetary Board of the BSP has statutory authority, with the approval of the President of the Philippines, during a foreign exchange crisis or in times of national emergency, to:

| • |  | suspend temporarily or restrict sales of foreign exchange;

| • |  | require licensing of foreign exchange transactions; or

| • |  | require the delivery of foreign exchange to the BSP or its designee banks.

We cannot assure you that foreign exchange controls will not be imposed in the future. If imposed, these restrictions could materially and adversely affect our ability to obtain foreign currency to service our foreign currency obligations.

The occurrence of natural catastrophes could materially disrupt our operations.

The Philippines has experienced a number of major natural catastrophes over the years, including typhoons, floods, volcanic eruptions and earthquakes that may materially disrupt and adversely affect our business operations. The frequency and severity of the occurrence of natural catastrophes and challenges may be further exacerbated through effects of the ongoing global climate change. We cannot assure you that we are fully capable to deal with these situations and that the insurance coverage we maintain will fully compensate us for all the damages and economic losses resulting from these catastrophes.

Risks Relating to Our Securities

Future authorization and issuance of substantial amounts of a new class of shares with voting rights could result in substantial dilution in voting power to the holders of our common shares and ADSs, and may materially reduce the market price of our common shares and ADSs.

##### Table of Contents

On July 5, 2011, our board of directors approved the amendments to the Seventh Article of PLDT’s Articles of Incorporation, which sets forth a sub-classification of its authorized preferred capital stock into 150 million shares of voting preferred stock and 807.5 million shares of non-voting serial preferred stock. Subject to the approval by the shareholders of PLDT, the voting preferred stock, if authorized and issued in full, would constitute approximately 41% of the enlarged voting power in PLDT. In addition, the shares of voting preferred stock may be issued, owned, or transferred only to or by: (a) a citizen of the Philippines or a domestic partnership or association wholly-owned by citizens of the Philippines; (b) a corporation organized under the laws of the Philippines of which at least 60% of the capital stock entitled to vote is owned and held by citizens of the Philippines and at least 60% of the board of directors of such corporation are citizens of the Philippines; and (c) a trustee of funds for pension or other employee retirement or separation benefits, where the trustee qualifies under paragraphs (a) and (b) above and at least 60% of the funds accrue to the benefit of citizens of the Philippines.

Upon the approval of the amendments by the Philippine SEC, the board of directors may authorize and issue any amount of voting preferred stock, up to 150 million shares, and determine the specific terms, features and limitations of such voting preferred stock. The issuance of voting preferred stock may result in substantial dilution in voting power to the holders of our common shares and ADSs, and the market price of our common shares and ADSs may decline significantly as a result.

We operate under the jurisdiction of the NTC, which jurisdiction extends, among other things, to approving major services that we offer and rates that we can charge.

Historical Background and Development

PLDT was incorporated under the old Corporation Law of the Philippines (Act 1459, as amended) on November 28, 1928 as Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company, following the merger of four telephone companies under common U.S. ownership. Under its Amended Articles of Incorporation, PLDT’s corporate term is currently limited through 2028. In 1967, effective control of PLDT was sold by the General Telephone and Electronics Corporation, then a major shareholder since PLDT’s incorporation, to a group of Filipino businessmen. In 1981, in furtherance of the then existing policy of the Philippine government to integrate the Philippine telecommunications industry, PLDT purchased substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the Republic Telephone Company, which at that time was the second largest telephone company in the Philippines. In 1998, the First Pacific Group acquired a significant interest in PLDT. On March 24, 2000, NTT Communications, through its wholly-owned subsidiary NTTC-UK, became PLDT’s strategic partner with approximately 15% economic and voting interest in the issued and outstanding common stock of PLDT at that time. Simultaneous with NTT

24

##### Table of Contents

Communications’ investment in PLDT, the latter acquired 100% of Smart. On March 14, 2006, NTT DOCOMO acquired from NTT Communications approximately 7% of PLDT’s then outstanding common shares held by NTT Communications with NTT Communications retaining ownership of approximately 7% of PLDT’s common shares. Since March 14, 2006, NTT DOCOMO has made additional purchases of shares of PLDT and together with NTT Communications beneficially owned approximately 21% of PLDT’s outstanding common stock as at December 31, 2010. NTT Communications and NTT DOCOMO are subsidiaries of NTT Holding Company. On February 28, 2007, Metro Pacific Asset Holdings, Inc., a Philippine affiliate of First Pacific, completed the acquisition of an approximately 46% interest in PTIC, a shareholder of PLDT. This investment in PTIC represented an attributable interest of approximately 6% of the then outstanding common shares of PLDT and thereby raised the First Pacific Group’s and its Philippine affiliates’ beneficial ownership to approximately 28% of PLDT’s shares of common stock as at that date. Since then, First Pacific Group and its Philippine affiliates’ beneficial ownership in PLDT decreased by approximately 2%, mainly due to the holders of Exchangeable Notes, which were issued in 2005 by a subsidiary of First Pacific and exchangeable into PLDT shares owned by First Pacific Group, who fully exchanged their notes. First Pacific Group and its Philippine affiliates had beneficial ownership of approximately 26% in PLDT’s outstanding common stock as at December 31, 2011. See Item 7. “Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions” for further discussion.

On October 26, 2011, PLDT completed the acquisition of a controlling interest in Digitel from JGS and certain other seller-parties. As payment for the assets acquired from JGS, PLDT issued approximately 27.7 million common shares. In November 2011, JGS sold 5.81 million and 4.56 million PLDT shares to a Philippine affiliate of First Pacific and NTT DOCOMO, respectively, pursuant to separate option agreements that JGS had entered into with a Philippine affiliate of First Pacific and NTT DOCOMO, respectively. As at February 29, 2012, the JG Summit Group, First Pacific Group and its Philippine affiliates and NTT Group (NTT DOCOMO, together with NTTC-UK) owned approximately 8%, 26% and 20% of PLDT’s outstanding common shares, respectively. See Note 13 – Business Combinations – PLDT’s Acquisition of Digitel to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further information.

PLDT’s original franchise was granted in 1928 and was last amended in 1991, extending its effectiveness until 2028 and broadening PLDT’s franchise permitting PLDT to provide virtually every type of telecommunications service. PLDT’s franchise covers the business of providing basic and enhanced telecommunications services in and between the provinces, cities and municipalities in the Philippines and between the Philippines and other countries and territories including mobile, cellular, wired or wireless telecommunications system, fiber optics, multi-channel transmission distribution systems and their VAS such as but not limited to transmission of voice, data, facsimile, control signals, audio and video, information services bureau and all other telecommunications systems technologies, as are at present available or can be made available through technical advances or innovations in the future. Our subsidiaries, including Smart, also maintain their own franchises with a different range of services and periods of legal effectiveness for their licenses.

Recent Developments

Conversion of Acquired Securities and Mandatory Tender Offer in connection with the Digitel Acquisition

As a result of PLDT’s acquisition of a controlling interest in Digitel, we were required under the SRC to conduct a mandatory tender offer for all the remaining outstanding shares of common stock of Digitel on substantially the same terms as the acquisition of Digitel shares from JGS. On December 5, 2011, we filed the tender offer report on Philippine SEC Form 19.1, setting forth the terms of the mandatory tender offer, which consisted of an offer to purchase all remaining outstanding shares of Digitel at a consideration of Php1.6033 per Digitel share, payable in our common shares based on one new common share for every Php2,500 in consideration payable, equivalent to one new common share for every 1,559.28 Digitel shares, or in cash, at the option of noncontrolling Digitel shareholders, except for tendering shareholders residing outside the Philippines, who will only be paid in cash. The tender offer period commenced on December 7, 2011 and ended on January 16, 2012 with a total of 2,888 million Digitel shares tendered.

From February 1 to March 22, 2012, PLDT purchased from the open market 72.3 million common shares of Digitel. PLDT also exercised its conversion rights on December 8, 2011 and February 7, 2012 to convert and

25

##### Table of Contents

exchange certain of the zero coupon securities acquired from JGS and certain other seller-parties in the Digitel acquisition into Digitel shares. As a result of the tender offer, open market acquisitions, and conversions and exchanges described above, we held 99.5% of the outstanding capital of Digitel as at March 22, 2012.

On January 25, 2012, Digitel filed for voluntary delisting of its shares with the PSE, since its public ownership level has fallen below the minimum 10% required by the PSE. On February 22, 2012, the PSE granted the petition for voluntary delisting and accordingly ordered the delisting of the shares of Digitel from the Official Registry of the PSE effective March 26, 2012. Subject to the payment of the required voluntary delisting fee, Digitel shares shall no longer be tradable on the PSE effective March 26, 2012.

PLDT’s Listing of Additional Common Shares

On November 9, 2011, the PSE approved the listing of the additional 27.7 million common shares of PLDT, which were issued on October 26, 2011 at the issue price of Php2,500 per share, as consideration for the acquisition by PLDT of the Enterprise Assets of Digitel, see Note 13 – Business Combinations – PLDT’s Acquisition of Digitel to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

On January 27, 2012, a total of 1.61 million PLDT common shares were issued for settlement of the purchase price of 2,518 million common shares of Digitel tendered by the noncontrolling Digitel stockholders under the mandatory tender offer conducted by PLDT, and which opted to receive payment of the purchase price in the form of PLDT common shares.

Redemption of Preferred Shares

On September 23, 2011, the Board of Directors approved the redemption of all outstanding shares of PLDT’s 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock Series A to FF, which were issued pursuant to the PLDT Subscriber Investment Plan, or SIP, or the SIP Preferred Shares, and all such shares were redeemed and retired effective January 19, 2012.

PLDT has set aside Php5.8 billion, the amount required to fund the redemption price for the SIP Preferred Shares, in a trust account in the name of Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation, as trustee. Pursuant to the terms of the trust account, the trustee will continue to hold in trust, for the benefit of those holders of SIP Preferred Shares who have failed to claim their redemption price for a period of 10 years from the redemption date or until January 19, 2022. After the said date, any and all remaining balance in the Trust Account shall be returned to PLDT and revert to its general funds. Any interests on such redemption trust fund will accrue for the benefit of, and be paid from time to time to, PLDT.

All SIP Preferred Shares of PLDT’s Series A to FF 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock were redeemed and retired effective January 19, 2012. A total amount of Php125 million was withdrawn from the Trust Account, representing total payments in redemption as at March 22, 2012.

PLDT expects to similarly redeem outstanding shares of 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock Series GG to II as and when they become eligible for redemption.

See Note 19 – Equity to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further details.

Beacon’s Acquisition of Additional Meralco Shares

In January 2012, Beacon acquired 30 million Meralco common shares from FPUC, representing approximately 3% beneficial ownership in Meralco at a nominal value of Php295 per share, thereby increasing Beacon’s beneficial ownership in Meralco to 48%. FPUC will retain certain property dividends that may be declared on such shares.

Business Overview

As at December 31, 2011, our chief operating decision maker views our business activities in four business units: Wireless, Fixed Line, BPO and Others, compared to three business units in 2010: Wireless, Fixed Line and ICT. The remaining ICT businesses, which did not form part of our BPO, were reclassified into our fixed line segment. We have retroactively implemented the above changes in our segment reporting and restated our comparative operating segment information accordingly. See Item 4. “Information on the Company – Development Activities (2009-2011) – Business Reorganization” to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further information.

Wireless

We provide cellular and wireless broadband, satellite and other services through our wireless business, which contributed about 92% and 8% of our wireless service revenues, respectively, in 2011. In previous years, rapid growth in the cellular market has resulted in a change in our revenue composition, with cellular service becoming our largest revenue source, surpassing our fixed line revenues in 2003. Cellular data services, which include all text messaging and text-related services ranging from ordinary SMS to VAS, contributed significantly to our revenue increase. Our total wireless revenues accounted for 60% in 2011 and 61% of our total revenues for each of the years 2010 and 2009. Our cellular service revenues accounted for 90% of our total wireless revenues in 2011 as compared with 91% in each of the years 2010 and 2009.

Our cellular service, which accounted for about 92% of our wireless service revenues for the year ended December 31, 2011, is provided through Smart, CURE and DMPI with 63,696,629 subscribers as at December 31, 2011 representing a market share of approximately 68%. In 2011, the combined number of Smart, Red Mobile and Sun Cellular subscribers increased by 18,060,621, or 40%, to 63,696,629. The growth was mainly due to the inclusion of DMPI’s prepaid and postpaid subscribers of 13,314,096 and 1,353,089, respectively, as at December 31, 2011 and a combination of organic subscriber growth and multiple SIM card ownership. The continued popularity of multiple SIM card ownership, together with unlimited voice offers, resulted in a decrease in our ARPU. Cellular penetration in the Philippines reached approximately 97% as at December 31, 2011, or approximately 28 times the country’s fixed line penetration, although the existence of subscribers owning multiple SIM cards overstates this penetration rate to a certain extent.

Approximately 97% and 91% of Smart’s and Sun Cellular’s, and nearly 100% of Red Mobile’s subscribers as at December 31, 2011 were prepaid service subscribers and subscriber gains in 2011 were predominantly attributable to their respective prepaid services. The predominance of prepaid service reflects one of the distinguishing characteristics of the Philippine cellular market, allowing us to increase and broaden our subscriber base rapidly and to enjoy fairly rich margin given that there are no handset subsidies extended, reduced billing and administrative costs on a per-subscriber basis, as well as to control credit risk.

Our cellular subscriber growth has also been driven by text messaging. Text messaging continues to be popular in the Philippines, particularly on the prepaid platform, as it provides a convenient and inexpensive alternative to voice and e-mail based communications. While still a significant contributor to Smart’s and Red Mobile’s cellular data service volume growth in 2011, cellular data service revenues were stable year-on-year at Php47,235 million in 2011 from Php47,236 million in 2010, partially offset by the inclusion of DMPI’s cellular data revenues of Php1,220 million for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011.

Smart’s cellular network is the most extensive in the Philippines, covering substantially all of Metropolitan Manila and most of the other major population centers in the Philippines. Its dual-band GSM network allows it to efficiently deploy high capacity 1800 MHz BTS in dense urban areas while its 900 MHz BTS can be much more economically deployed in potentially high growth, but less densely populated provincial areas. We have rolled out a 3G network based on a W-CDMA technology and are currently upgrading our wireless broadband facilities. With 14,879 cellular/mobile broadband base stations, including DMPI’s 4,376 cellular/mobile broadband base stations as at December 31, 2011, our cellular network covers approximately 99% of all towns and municipalities in the Philippines, accounting for approximately 99% of the population.

DMPI transformed its transmission backbone network from a linear architecture to a ring topology, which allows for greater redundancy to ensure service reliability and quality. Additionally, DMPI has developed an advanced 3G network that is currently operational in 19 provinces nationwide. We believe DMPI has developed an advanced network infrastructure that is highly efficient and can be easily scaled to accommodate increased subscriber base for its 2G and 3G business and increased network traffic from “unlimited” plans offered to subscribers of Sun Cellular.

Fixed Line

We are the leading provider of fixed line telecommunications services throughout the country, servicing retail, corporate and small medium enterprise, or SME, clients. Our fixed line business group offers local exchange,

27

##### Table of Contents

international long distance, national long distance, data and other network and miscellaneous services. We had 2,166,295 fixed line subscribers as at December 31, 2011, an increase of 344,190 from the 1,822,105 fixed line subscribers as at December 31, 2010. The significant increase in fixed line subscribers was mainly due to the inclusion of Digitel’s fixed line subscribers of 296,395 as at December 31, 2011. Total revenues from our fixed line accounted for 35% of our total revenues for each of the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009. National long distance revenues have been declining largely due to a drop in call volumes as a result of continued popularity of alternative means of communications such as texting, e-mailing and internet telephony. Partly mitigating these declines has been an increase in the revenue contribution of our data and other network services in recent years. Recognizing the growth potential of data and other network services, we have put considerable emphasis on the development of new packet-switched, data-capable and IP-based networks.

Our 10,050-kilometer long DFON is complemented by an extensive digital microwave backbone operated by Smart. These microwave networks complement the higher capacity fiber optic networks and are vital in delivering reliable services to remote areas. Our fixed line network reaches all of the major cities and municipalities in the Philippines, with a concentration in the Metropolitan Manila area. Our network offers the country’s most extensive connections to international networks through two international gateway switching exchanges, satellite systems and various regional submarine cable systems in which we have interests.

See “– Infrastructure – Fixed Line Network Infrastructure” for further information on our fixed line infrastructure.

Business Process Outsourcing

We provide knowledge processing solutions through SPi Group and customer relationship management though SPi CRM. The BPO segment accounted for 5% of our revenues in each of the years 2011, 2010 and 2009.

Others

Others consisting principally of PCEV, an investment holding company which has an interest in Meralco shares through its interest in Beacon’s outstanding common shares and preferred stock.

Capital Expenditures and Divestitures

See Item 5. “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects – Liquidity and Capital Resources” for information concerning our principal capital expenditures for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011 and those planned for 2012. We have not undertaken any significant divestitures and currently do not have any significant divestitures in progress.

The transfer of legal title to the Meralco shares was implemented through a special block sale/cross sale in the PSE.

Smart’s Acquisition of Noncontrolling Interests in PCEV

Smart’s Board of Directors approved on June 19, 2009 a tender offer to acquire at Php8.50 per share, which was paid in cash on August 12, 2009, from PCEV’s non-controlling shareholders up to approximately 840 million shares representing 7.2% of the outstanding common stock of PCEV at that time. Smart filed the Tender Offer Report with the Philippine SEC and the PSE on June 23, 2009 pursuant to Section 19 of the SRC. The tender offer commenced on July 1, 2009 and ended on July 29, 2009, with approximately 93.0% of PCEV’s non-controlling shares tendered, thereby increasing Smart’s ownership to approximately 99.5% of the outstanding common stocks of PCEV. The aggregate cost for the tender offer paid by Smart to non-controlling shareholders on August 12, 2009 amounted to Php6,618 million, from which Smart recognized an excess of acquisition cost over the carrying value of noncontrolling interests acquired of Php5,479 million presented as part of capital in excess of par value account in our consolidated statement of financial position.

Transfer of PCEV’s Cellular Mobile Telephone Business/Asset to Smart

On June 30, 2009, PCEV’s stockholders approved the sale and transfer of PCEV’s cellular mobile telephone business/assets to Smart through a series of transactions, which included: (a) the assignment of PCEV’s Talk ‘N Text trademark to Smart for a consideration of Php8,004 million; (b) the transfer of PCEV’s existing Talk ‘N Text subscriber base to Smart in consideration of the rate of Php73 per subscriber, which is equivalent to Smart’s average acquisition cost per subscriber in 2008 for its Smart Prepaid subscribers representing Php1,213 million in the aggregate; and (c) the sale of PCEV’s GSM fixed assets to Smart at net book value. As a result, the cellular mobile telephone business has been consolidated under Smart in order to maximize revenue streams and eliminate any potential regulatory issues relating to the traffic between PCEV and Smart. The NTC approved the request for the sale and transfer of PCEV’s subscribers to Smart submitted on July 8, 2009 and the transfer of PCEV’s cellular mobile telephone business and assets to Smart completed on August 17, 2009.

Repurchase of PCEV’s Common Stock held by noncontrolling shareholders

PCEV’s Board of Directors approved three share buyback programs during its meetings on November 3, 2008, March 2, 2009 and August 3, 2009. For all three programs, the buyback was done through the trading facilities of the PSE through open market purchases, block trades or other modes, subject to compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations. The number of shares approved for repurchase under the buyback programs were 58 million, 25 million and 61.5 million for the programs approved on November 3, 2008, March 2, 2009 and August 3, 2009, respectively. The program approved on November 3, 2008 was completed in January 2009 at a total cost of Php403 million, while the program approved on March 2, 2009 was completed in March 2009 at a total cost of Php188 million. PCEV repurchased 2.8 million shares at a total cost of Php23 million in 2009 and 0.8 million shares at a total cost of Php7 million in 2010 under the program approved on August 3, 2009. As at December 31, 2011 and 2010, cumulative shares repurchased under the share buyback programs totaled 86.6 million at an aggregate cost of Php621 million.

The share buyback was accounted for as acquisition of noncontrolling interest and therefore an equity transaction wherein the difference between the consideration paid and proportionate carrying value is recognized as an adjustment to capital in excess of par.

##### Table of Contents

On November 2, 2011, the Board of Directors of PCEV authorized PCEV’s management to take such steps as necessary for the voluntary delisting of PCEV from the PSE in accordance with the PSE Rules on Voluntary Delisting. On December 2, 2011, PCEV’s Board of Directors also created a special committee to review and evaluate any tender offer to purchase the shares owned by the remaining minority shareholders representing 0.49% of the outstanding common stock of PCEV. Smart filed a Tender Offer Statement with the Philippine SEC on March 15, 2012. The tender offer commenced on March 19, 2012 and will end on April 18, 2012. PCEV, on the other hand, filed with the PSE its petition for voluntary delisting on March 19, 2012.

The program approved on August 3, 2009 was terminated by PCEV’s Board of Directors on March 5, 2012 in anticipation of the tender offer by Smart to PCEV’s remaining minority shareholders.

SPi’s Acquisition of Laguna Medical

On August 31, 2009, SPi (through SPi-America, a wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary of SPi) signed a Stock Purchase Agreement with Laguna Medical, a California Corporation, and its various sellers, to purchase 80% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Laguna Medical for a cash consideration of US$6.6 million, or Php313 million. Simultaneous with the agreement to acquire the 80% equity interest of Laguna Medical, SPi signed a Put-Call Agreement with Laguna Medical LLC, a Delaware Corporation, in respect of the remaining 20% of the outstanding common stock of Laguna Medical held by Laguna Medical LLC. Under said Put-Call Agreement, commencing on July 1, 2011, Laguna Medical LLC granted SPi the exclusive right to purchase the remaining Laguna Medical shares (call right) while SPi granted Laguna Medical LLC the exclusive right to sell the remaining Laguna Medical shares (put right) to SPi. Based on our evaluation of the mandatory Put-Call option, SPi has present access to the economic benefits associated with the ownership interest in Laguna Medical, hence, control over the 20% interest has already been in the possession of SPi since August 31, 2009. As a result, the effective ownership interest of Laguna Medical acquired by SPi on August 31, 2009 was 100%. The acquisition cost for the remaining 20% of the outstanding common stock of Laguna Medical is equivalent to the base price of US$2 million plus the change in Laguna Medical adjusted EBITDA from the date of acquisition to April 30, 2011 multiplied by applicable performance factors specified in the agreement. The contingent liability recognized in relation to the acquisition of the 20% interest was paid in full in July 2011.

Smart’s Acquisition of PDSI

In May and October 2009, Smart acquired an aggregate of approximately 84 million shares, representing the total issued and outstanding capital stock of PDSI, for a total consideration of Php1,569 million. The acquisition was completed on two dates: (a) the first closing took place on May 14, 2009 and involved the acquisition of approximately 34 million shares representing 40% of the issued and outstanding shares of PDSI for a consideration of Php632 million; and (b) the second closing took place on October 2, 2009 and involved the acquisition of the remaining approximately 50 million shares representing 60% of the issued and outstanding shares of PDSI for a consideration of Php937 million.

Smart’s Acquisition of Chikka

On December 18, 2009, Smart acquired 120 thousand common shares, representing 100% of the outstanding share capital of Chikka, a mobile applications development and services company, for a total consideration of US$13.5 million, or Php629 million, of which US$12.1 million, or Php564 million, was paid in cash on December 18, 2009 and the balance of US$1.4 million, or Php65 million, was paid on September 27, 2010 upon completion of the post closing provisions.

Investment by Smart in BOW and subsequent sale of BOW

In July 2009, Smart (through its subsidiary, SCH) increased its shareholdings in BOW to approximately 1.2 million shares representing 51.0% of the total issued and outstanding shares of BOW from 381 thousand shares, or 28.3%. The cost of the additional investment in BOW amounted to US$6 million, or Php301 million, for 782 thousand shares, or US$8 per share, of which US$4 million, or Php182 million, was paid in cash and US$2 million, or Php119 million, was offset against net payables by BOW to Smart.

In June 2011, the management and operations of BOW was transferred from SHPL to Stratos BV, a third party. Consequently, SHPL ceased to recognize BOW as its subsidiary.

PLDT’s Acquisition of a controlling interest in Digitel from JGS

On March 29, 2011, we entered into definitive agreements with JGS and certain other seller-parties to acquire a controlling interest in Digitel, or the Digitel acquisition. Digitel is an operator of fixed line and wireless telecommunications network in the Philippines, including mobile phone operations under the Sun Cellular brand name. Pursuant to the agreements, we agreed to acquire Digitel securities and loans consisting of: (i) 3.28 billion common shares of Digitel, or Digitel shares, representing approximately 51.6% of the issued common stock of Digitel at the time of acquisition; (ii) zero coupon convertible or exchangeable bonds issued by Digitel and its subsidiaries that are convertible or exchangeable into Digitel shares; and (iii) certain intercompany advances made by JGS to Digitel, all for a total consideration of Php69.2 billion, payable in newly issued PLDT common shares on the basis of one new common share for every Php2,500 in consideration payable, resulting in approximately 27.7 million of our common shares being issuable to JGS and certain other seller-parties. The common shares issued by PLDT in connection with Digitel acquisition are subject to a one-year lockup period, during which JGS and certain other seller-parties may not transfer or otherwise encumber these shares without our prior consent.

The consummation of the transaction was subject to the procurement by us of certain regulatory approvals, which were obtained on October 26, 2011, on the same date we completed the Digitel acquisition and began consolidating the results of operations of Digitel in our financial statements.

The primary effects of the acquisition of the Digitel Group on our operating segments is the addition of DMPI to our wireless business and the addition of Digitel to our fixed line business. We have agreed with the NTC that we will continue to operate Sun Cellular as a separate brand. See Note 4 – Operating Segment Information, Note 13 – Business Combinations – PLDT’s Acquisition of Digitel and Note 14 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further information on the effect of the Digitel acquisition on PLDT and its businesses.

Divestment of CURE

On October 26, 2011, Smart was directed by PLDT to divest CURE, its wholly-owned subsidiary, as one of the conditions to the NTC’s approval of the acquisition of Digitel by PLDT. CURE was granted the right to use the 10 MHz of 3G frequency bandwidth in the 1955-1965 to 1955-2155 MHz spectrum, or the Affected Frequency, and operates the wireless business under the Red Mobile brand.

The NTC also approved in October 2011 the divestment plan presented by PLDT, which covers the following commitments:

| • |  | CURE will sell its Red Mobile business to Smart consisting primarily of its subscriber base, brand and fixed assets. There will be a nine-month transition period reckoned from the date of promulgation of the Decision to effect this first requirement; and

| • |  | Smart will sell all of its rights and interests in CURE whose remaining assets will consist of its congressional franchise, the Affected Frequency and related permits. The divestment sale will be conducted within six months after the end of the nine-month transition period and will be made under the supervision and control of the NTC.

The Divestment Sale will be made under the supervision and control of the NTC and will be effected through a competitive bidding among duly enfranchised and qualified public telecommunication entities. A minimum price will be prescribed to allow Smart to recover its investment in acquiring, developing and operating CURE, or the Cost Recovery Amount. In the event that the actual proceeds from the Divestment Sale exceed the Cost Recovery Amount, PLDT will pay the NTC, as fee for supervising the Divestment Sale, at least 50% of such excess less government fees and taxes payable as a consequence of the Divestment Sale.

The divestment of CURE related franchise and licenses qualifies as noncurrent assets held-for-sale but was no longer presented separately in our consolidated statement of financial position as the carrying amounts are not material.

Business Reorganization

On July 7, 2010, our Board of Directors approved the reorganization of the ePLDT Group into two business groups: (i) the information and communications technology, or ICT business group, which provides data center services, internet and online gaming services and business solutions and applications, and which was subsequently incorporated into our fixed line business; and (ii) the BPO business group, which covers customer relationship management or call center operations under SPi CRM; and content solutions, medical billing and coding and medical transcription services under SPi.

With our objective to grow the BPO business segment, and for ePLDT to focus on its core business of IT infrastructure and services, our Board of Directors approved on July 5, 2011 the spin off of SPi and SPi CRM from ePLDT and transfer the ownership of SPi Global to PLDT, and to place both SPi and SPi CRM under SPi Global. The reorganization was completed on December 6, 2011. See “ – Recent Developments – Beacon’s Acquisition of Additional Meralco Shares” and Note 10 – Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18.

PCEV transferred its cellular business to Smart in August 2009 and acquired 223 million common shares, or about 20% equity interest, in Meralco in March 2010. PCEV subsequently transferred to Beacon in which PCEV acquired 50% equity interest effective March 31, 2010, 154.2 million and 68.8 million Meralco common shares to Beacon on May 12, 2010 and October 25, 2011, respectively. As a result, PCEV became an investment/holding company and reclassified PCEV from Wireless to Others business segment.

See Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Note 13 – Business Combinations and Note 14 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion regarding these and other acquisitions.

Strengths

We believe our business is characterized by the following competitive strengths:

| • |  | Recognized Brands. PLDT and Smart are strong and widely recognized brand names in the Philippines. We have built the PLDT brand name for over 80 years as the leading telecommunications provider in the Philippines. Smart is recognized in the Philippines as an innovative provider of high-quality cellular services. The Talk ‘N Text brand, which is provided using Smart’s network, has also gained significant recognition as a price-competitive brand. Our brand range was further strengthened with the acquisition of DMPI and its cellular brand, Sun Cellular. Since its launch in 2003, Sun Cellular has built considerable brand equity as a provider of “unlimited” services. Having a range of strong and recognizable brands allows us to offer to various market segments differentiated products and services that suit customers’ budgets and usage preferences.

| • |  | Leading Market Shares. With approximately 69 million fixed line, cellular and broadband subscribers as at December 31, 2011, we have leading market positions in each of the fixed line, cellular and broadband markets in the Philippines in terms of both subscribers and revenues.

| • |  | Diversified Revenue Sources. We derive our revenues from our four business segments, namely, wireless, fixed line, BPO and other businesses, with wireless contributing 60%, fixed line 35% and BPO 5% to our total revenues in 2011. Revenue sources of our wireless business include cellular services, which include voice services and text message-related and VAS, and wireless broadband services. Revenues from our wireless business are from cellular voice and data services. These have been declining in the past few years as a result of the popularity of bucket and unlimited plans which have resulted in increasing traffic on the network albeit with declining yields. The decline in our cellular revenues are somewhat mitigated by the increase in revenues from wireless broadband. Our fixed line business derives service revenues from local exchange, international long distance, national long distance and data and other network services. In our BPO business, sources of revenue include knowledge processing solutions and customer relationship management businesses. Revenues from our fixed line services, such as local exchange, national and international long distance, have been declining over the past years due to pressures on traditional fixed line voice revenues and reductions in international interconnection rates, offset by the significant revenue contribution of our data and other network service. Fixed line revenues represent 35% of our total revenues in 2011, 2010, and 2009.

| • |  | Advanced Integrated Network. With the most advanced and extensive telecommunications networks in the Philippines, we are able to offer a wide array of communications services. We aim to enhance the capabilities of our fixed line and wireless networks to allow us to better exploit this competitive strength and achieve higher levels of network efficiency in providing voice and data services. This includes the build out of a second network that has been designed to contain the increase in voice traffic resulting from lower cost voice offers under our Red Mobile brand. We believe this network and brand strategy will allow the quality of service on our main network serving our Smart Prepaid and Talk ‘N Text brands to be maintained. In addition, we continue the upgrade of our fixed line network to an all IP-based NGN, invest in increased international bandwidth capacity, and expansion of our 3G and wireless broadband networks in order to expand our data/broadband capabilities to attract more broadband subscribers by offering a better quality of experience. Included in our modernization program are investments to upgrade our IT capabilities, including our Operating Support Systems, Business Support Systems and Intelligent Networks, all of which are essential in enabling us to offer more relevant services to our customers.

| • |  | Innovative Products and Services. We have successfully introduced a number of innovative and award-winning cellular products and services, including Smart Money, Smart Load and Pasa Load. Smart Load is an “over-the-air” electronic loading facility designed to make reloading of air time credits more convenient for, and accessible to consumers. Pasa Load (the term “pasa” means “transfer”) is a derivative service of Smart Load that allows load transfers to other Smart Prepaid and Talk ‘N Text subscribers.

| • |  | Strong Strategic Relationships. We have important strategic relationships with First Pacific, NTT DOCOMO and NTT Communications. We believe the technological support, international experience

35

##### Table of Contents

| and management expertise made available to us through these strategic relationships will enable us to enhance our market leadership and ability to provide and cross-sell a more complete range of products and services.

Strategy

The key elements of our business strategy are:

| • |  | Build on our leading positions in the fixed line and wireless businesses. We plan to continue building on our position as the leading fixed line and wireless service providers in the Philippines by continuing to launch new products and services to increase subscriber value and utilization of our existing facilities and equipment at reduced cost and to increase our subscribers’ use of our network for both voice and data, as well as their reliance on our services. We are also modernizing our fixed line, cellular and mobile broadband networks, not only to achieve operating and cost efficiencies, but also to lay the foundation for future technological advances.

| • |  | Capitalize on our strength as an integrated provider of telecommunications services. We offer the broadest range of telecommunications services among all operators in the Philippines. We plan to capitalize on this position to maximize revenue opportunities by bundling and cross-selling our products and services, and by developing convergent products that feature the combined benefits of voice and data, fixed line, wireless, BPO and other services utilizing our network and business platforms.

| • |  | Strengthen our leading position in the data and broadband market. Leveraging on the inherent strengths of our fixed line and wireless businesses, we are committed to further develop our fastest growing business – broadband, data and other network services. Consistent with our strategy of introducing innovative products and services using advanced technology, we continue to launch various products and services in the data and broadband market that deliver quality of experience according to different market needs.

| • |  | Maintain a strong financial position and improve shareholder returns. In recent years, we have significantly improved our financial position by utilizing our cash flows principally for debt reduction and capital expenditures. As the cash flows generated by our businesses have increased and our leverage ratios have improved, we have been able to restore the payment of cash dividends to our common shareholders beginning 2005 and were able to declare dividend payouts of approximately 100% for five consecutive years in each of 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 of our core earnings. We plan to continue utilizing our free cash flows for the payment of cash dividends to common shareholders and investments in new growth areas. As part of our growth strategy, we have made and may continue to make acquisitions and investments in companies or businesses. We will continue to consider value-accretive investments in telecommunications as well as telco-related businesses such as those in the global outsourcing and off-shoring industry.

Service Plans. Smart markets nationwide cellular communications services under the brand names Smart Prepaid, Talk ‘N Text, Smart Postpaid and Smart Infinity, while CURE offers Red Mobile. Smart Prepaid and Talk ‘N Text are prepaid services while Smart Postpaid and Smart Infinity are postpaid services, which are all provided through Smart’s digital network. Red Mobile offers postpaid and prepaid services. With the acquisition of a majority interest in the Digitel Group on October 26, 2011, we now offer prepaid and postpaid services under the brand name Sun Cellular.

Smart, together with Talk ‘N Text, Red Mobile and Sun Cellular, has focused on segmenting the market by offering sector-specific, value-driven packages for its subscribers. These include load buckets which provide a fixed number of messages with prescribed validity periods and call packages which allow a fixed number of calls of preset duration. Starting out as purely within network packages, Smart’s buckets now also offer voice, text and hybrid bundles available to all networks. Smart also provides packages with unlimited voice, text, data, and combinations thereof, whose denominations depend on the duration and nature of the unlimited packages.

Postpaid subscribers have similar options depending on their monthly subscription plans. Recently, Smart introduced its new postpaid consumable plan, Smart All-in Plans, which enables subscribers to choose from Smart’s different services, such as unlimited call, text, or mobile browsing, all charged within the subscriber’s monthly service fee.

Smartalk, Smart’s unlimited voice offering, is available to Smart Prepaid and Smart Postpaid subscribers nationwide. The service does not require any change in SIM or cellular phone number and enables Smart Prepaid and Smart Postpaid subscribers to make unlimited calls to any subscriber on the Smart network (on-net). Smart subscribers could avail of the service, via registration or via retailer loading, by purchasing loads for unlimited calls which come in these denominations:

| • |  | “Smartalk Lite 15” which offers unlimited calls from 1:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. for Php15;

| • |  | “Smartalk 20” which offers one day of unlimited calls for Php20 up to the first six Smart network numbers;

Talk ‘N Text also has UnliTalk 100 which offers five days of unlimited calls to Talk ‘N Text and Smart subscribers.

In 2011, Smart expanded its roster of unlimited offerings on the back of the planned capacity expansion of its networks. Smart’s most recent innovation is the Trio 20, a cellular service package to integrate the existing services provided by Smart and DMPI, which for only Php20, subscribers can send 200 texts and make 15 minutes of calls to other Smart, Talk ‘N Text and Sun Cellular prepaid subscribers valid for 1 day.

Red Mobile introduced its unlimited voice and SMS offering utilizing a secondary network powered by Smart. Red Mobile Unlimited offers unlimited Red-to-Red call and text, and unlimited Red-to-Red text packages, as well as unlimited call and text to all Smart subscribers.

Smart also offers the Smart Unli Postpaid Plan which is available in three variants: Unli postpaid 299 which offers unlimited text to any subscriber on the Smart network, Dual Plan 549 which offers unlimited text with two hours of calls to any subscriber on the Smart network and unlimited text with four hours of calls to any subscriber on the Sun Cellular network, and Unli postpaid 599 which offers unlimited call and text to any subscriber on the Smart network.

Sun Cellular postpaid plans offer a variety of services to cater to subscribers with different needs and provide innovative services at affordable prices.

Voice Services. Cellular voice services comprise all voice traffic and voice VAS such as voice mail and international roaming. Voice services remain a significant contributor to wireless revenues, generating a total of Php43,885 million, Php45,678 million and Php43,642 million, or 47%, 48% and 44% of cellular service revenues in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Local calls continue to dominate outbound traffic constituting 89% of all our cellular minutes. Domestic inbound and outbound calls totaled 38,166 million minutes in 2011, an increase of 14,379 million minutes, or 60%, as compared with 23,787 million minutes in 2010, due to increased usage resulting from unlimited voice offerings and the inclusion of DMPI’s domestic voice traffic for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011. International inbound and outbound calls totaled 3,085 million minutes in 2011, an increase of 59 million minutes, or 2%, as compared with 3,026 million minutes in 2010, mainly due to an increase in cellular subscriber base and the inclusion of DMPI’s international call traffic for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011. The ratio of inbound-to-outbound international long distance minutes was 12.8:1 for 2011.

Data Services. Cellular revenues from data services include all text messaging-related services, as well as, VAS and wireless broadband.

The Philippine cellular market is one of the most text messaging-intensive markets in the world, with more than a billion text messages per day. Text messaging is extremely popular in the Philippines, particularly on the prepaid platform, as it provides a convenient and inexpensive alternative to voice and e-mail based communications.

##### Table of Contents

Despite the strong volume growth in text messaging and the inclusion of DMPI’s revenues for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011, our cellular revenues from this service decreased by Php896 million, or 2%, to Php43,708 million in 2011 from Php44,604 million in 2010, resulting mainly from the declining SMS yields as a result of aggressive SMS pricing offers, the continued popularity of alternative means of communication through social media sites and increases in the number of subscribers who also hold SIM cards from other cellular operators and who selectively use such SIM cards in their calls and SMS. In 2011, Smart’s and DMPI’s text messaging system handled 17,793 million outbound messages on standard SMS services and 322,588 million messages generated by bucket-priced text services.

In 2011, approximately 50% of our cellular revenues were derived from data usage compared to 49% in 2010 mainly due to an increase in VAS revenues and the inclusion of DMPI’s revenues for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011, partially offset by lower text messaging revenues.

Smart offers the following VAS:

| • |  | internet-based revenues from web-based services such as mobile internet browsing, video streaming and Uzzap, net of allocated discounts and content provider costs. Uzzap is an IP-based messaging service that allows instant messaging, email, SMS, group messages, chatting, etc.;

| • |  | Pasa Load/Give-a-load includes revenues from Pasa Load and Dial*SOS, net of allocated discounts. Pasa Load/Give-a-load is a service which allows prepaid and postpaid subscribers to transfer small denominations of air time credits to other prepaid subscribers. Dial*SOS allows Smart prepaid subscribers to borrow Php4 of load (Php3 on-net SMS plus Php1 air time) from Smart which will be deducted upon their next top-up;

| • |  | SMS-based includes revenues from info-on-demand and voice text services, net of allocated discounts and content provider costs; and

| • |  | MMS-based includes revenues from point-to-point multimedia messaging system, or MMS, and content download services, such as ringtone, logo or music downloads, net of allocated discounts and content provider costs.

Smart Unli Data Plan offers unlimited internet browsing on postpaid basis, best suited for subscribers with high data usage. Bundled with the latest handsets, and with free texts and calls, subscribers may choose among the following packages: Plan1500, Plan2000, Plan3000 and Plan4000 with monthly costs based on the numerical denomination of the package.

Due to the high level of text messaging service usage, we believe that the Philippine market is well suited for text-based informational and e-commerce services. There is a potential growth in mobile internet browsing as a result of the popularity of social networking and the affordability of smartphones. Our current approach is to continue maximizing our GSM, or 2G, network services while upgrading our network to Enhanced Data for GSM Evolution, or EDGE and 3G in anticipation for the growth in mobile internet browsing in order to provide quality of experience to our subscribers.

Wolfpac

Through Wolfpac, we are engaged in the business of consumer mobile applications software development and consumer mobile content development and other allied services.

Through Chikka, we provide an internet and GSM-based instant messaging facility for mobile users or subscribers. Services include personal computer to mobile instant text messaging and vice versa, text newsletter, text-based promotions, multi-media messaging, subscription-based services, and other mobile VAS.

Our current policy is to recognize a prepaid subscriber as “active” only when the subscriber activates and uses the SIM card and reloads it at least once during the month of initial activation or in the immediately succeeding month. A prepaid cellular subscriber is disconnected if the subscriber does not reload within four months after the full usage or expiry of the last reload.

##### Table of Contents

Smart Prepaid and Talk ‘N Text Call and Text prepaid cards are sold in denominations of Php100, Php300 and Php500. The Php300 and Php500 cards include 33 and 83 free text messages, respectively. The stored value of a prepaid card remains valid for a period ranging from 30 days to 120 days depending on the denomination of the card, with larger denominations having longer validity periods from the time a subscriber activates the card. We launch from time to time promotions with shorter validity periods. The introduction of our “over-the-air” electronic loading facility Smart Load made reloading of air time credits more convenient and accessible for consumers. Smart Load’s over-the-air reloads have evolved to respond to market needs and now come in various denominations ranging from Php10 to Php1,000 with corresponding expiration periods. The introduction of our “over-the-air” Smart Load was followed by Pasa Load, a derivative service, allowing prepaid and postpaid subscribers to transfer even smaller denominations to other prepaid subscribers. Since 2005, Smart has offered fixed rate or “bucket” packages as a means of driving subscriber activations and stimulating usage. These bucket packages, which offer a fixed number of text messages or call minutes for a limited validity period, have proven to be popular with subscribers. Smart also offers unlimited voice and text packages under its various brands in order to be competitive and maintain industry leadership. Both bucket packages, and unlimited voice and text packages account for 34% of our cellular service revenues in 2011.

Smart Prepaid subscribers are charged Php6.50 per minute for calls to Smart Prepaid and Talk ‘N Text subscribers and Php7.50 per minute terminating to other cellular or fixed line networks. Talk ‘N Text calls to Talk ‘N Text subscribers are charged Php5.50 per minute while calls to Smart Prepaid and other cellular fixed line subscribers are charged Php6.50 per minute. Red Mobile subscribers’ calls to other Red Mobile subscribers are charged at Php0.50 per minute. Calls to Smart Prepaid and Talk ‘N Text subscribers are charged Php2.00 per minute while calls to other networks’ subscribers are charged Php6.50 per minute.

In 2011, Sun Cellular continued to offer its range of existing unlimited products and further introduced special product promotions. Sun Cellular introduced an enhanced version of its flagship Call and Text Unlimited product by launching the Sun Call and Text Unlimited Superloaded product, offering unlimited on-network call and text feature of the Call and Text Unlimited Service with the aim to provide more value for money by bundling a set number of free texts to other networks and free minutes of mobile internet. For example, the Php100 denomination is valid for five days and comes with 80 free texts to other networks and 30 free minutes of mobile internet. There are also variants with longer validity periods and more free inclusions: Php150 provides Sun Call & Text Unlimited for 7 days with 100 free texts to other networks, includes Php25 regular load and 30 free minutes of mobile internet, while Php450 is valid for 30 days, includes Php50 regular load and 90 free minutes of mobile internet. Sun Flexiload offers special rates for calls and texts to Sun (as low as Php0.50/call and Php0.25/text) and to other networks (as low as Php5.50/minute and Php0.50/text) in two variants: Flexi Load 30 and Flexi Load 50. Subscribers also have the option of converting their Flexi Load to other Sun Cellular’s special load offerings such as the Call and Text Unlimited or the Call and Text Combo.

Smart offers both flat rate, or regular, and consumable postpaid plans with monthly service fees ranging from Php300 to Php3,500 for Smart Postpaid and from Php5,000 to Php8,000 for Smart Infinity. These plans are available with varying amounts of free air time and text messages and different rates beyond the free minutes and text messages, depending on the monthly service fee bundled with handsets. Monthly service fees for flat rate, or regular, plans are applicable only to local calls, text messages and data browsing, as well as for consumable plans to all voice calls, text messages (both local and international) and VAS.

Sun Cellular offers postpaid services that enable subscribers to place local and international calls and SMS, use mobile internet and utilize a wireless landline through postpaid plans with varying monthly service fees ranging from Php250 to Php3,500. Sun Cellular subscribers not availing of any Call and Text Unlimited service are charged Php5.50 per minute for calls to other Sun Cellular subscribers and Php6.50 to other networks. Local NDD calls are charged at Php6.50 per minute, while NDD calls are charged at Php10.00 per minute.

Smart is permitted to adjust its cellular air time and national direct dial rates according to changes in the Philippine peso-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate. Under the authorization granted to Smart by the NTC, Smart is permitted to increase and is required to decrease its air time and national direct dial rates by 1% for every Php0.25 change in the exchange rate relative to a base rate of Php24.73 to US$1.00. However, Smart has not implemented any foreign currency adjustments to its rates since November 4, 1998 because of the concern that increased rates may result in decreased usage or switching to other cellular providers by its subscribers.

Smart subscribers pay an international direct dialing rate of US$0.40 per minute. This rate applies to most destinations, including the United States, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, the United Kingdom and the United Arab Emirates. Smart charges US$0.98 per minute for 27 other destinations and US$2.18 per minute for another ten destinations. Smart subscribers also have the option of calling at more affordable rates, even for as low as Php2.50 per minute, through HELLOw reloadable IDD card, Smart’s budget IDD service.

Wolfpac generates revenues from SMS subscriptions, institutional services and downloadable contents. The subscription price for the SMS subscription and institutional services is pegged at Php2.50 per SMS, while for downloadable content, the subscription price ranges from Php10.00 to Php30.00.

Distribution and Discounts

We sell our cellular services primarily through a network of independent dealers and distributors that generally have their own retail networks, direct sales forces and sub-dealers. We currently have 88 all exclusive regional distributors and 80 key account dealers, of which 21 are exclusive, including DMPI’s 68 regional distributors and 46 key account dealers, of which three are exclusive. These dealers include major distributors of cellular handsets and broadband modems whose main focus is telecommunications outlets. Account managers from our sales force manage the distribution network and regularly update these business partners on upcoming marketing strategies, promotional campaigns and new products introductions. With the introduction of Smart Load, Smart moved into a new realm of distribution. These over-the-air reloads, which were based on the “sachet” marketing concept of consumer goods such as shampoo and ketchup, required a distribution network that approximates those of fast-moving consumer goods companies. Starting with just 50,000 outlets when it was launched, Smart Load’s distribution network now encompasses approximately 2.2 million retail agents, 80% of which are micro businesses (e.g., neighborhood stores, individual entrepreneurs and individual roving agents). These micro-retailers must be affiliated with any of Smart’s authorized dealers, distributors, sub-dealers or agents. With the prepaid reloading distribution network now extended to corner store and individual retailer levels and minimum reloading denominations as low as Php10, Smart’s prepaid service became more affordable and accessible to subscribers.

For prepaid services, we grant discounts to dealers for prepaid phone kits, modems, air time cards and over-the-air reloads sold. Smart compensates dealers with Php100 to Php800 in cash discount per unit depending on the price of the prepaid phone kit sold whereas Sun Cellular’s cash discount of Php75 to Php400 varies based on the prepaid phone kit sold. Air time cards and over-the-air reloads are sold at an average discount of approximately 8% and 16%, respectively for Smart, and 10% and 17%, respectively for Sun Cellular. Air time cards cannot be returned or refunded and normally expire within 12 months after release from the Smart warehouse. The same policy is being applied by Sun Cellular.

We offer postpaid and prepaid fixed line services. Initially intended as an affordable alternative telephone service for consumers under difficult economic conditions, our prepaid fixed line services now form an important part of our overall churn and credit risk exposure management strategy.

Local Exchange Service

Our local exchange service, which consists of our basic voice telephony business, is provided primarily through PLDT. We also provide local exchange services through our subsidiaries – Philcom and its subsidiaries, BCC, PLDT Global Group, ClarkTel, SubicTel, SBI, PDSI, Maratel and Digitel. Together, these subsidiaries account for approximately 17% of our consolidated fixed line subscribers.

The following table summarizes key measures of our local exchange service as at and for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009:

|  | 2011(1) |  |  | 2010 |  |  | 2009 |
Number of local exchange line subscribers |  |  | 2,166,295 |  |  |  | 1,822,105 |  |  |  | 1,816,541 |
Number of fixed line employees |  |  | 9,072 |  |  |  | 7,395 |  |  |  | 7,947 |
Number of local exchange line subscribers per employee |  |  | 239 |  |  |  | 246 |  |  |  | 229 |

(1) | Includes Digitel’s revenues, subscriber base and employee count as at and for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011.

(2) | The 2010 and 2009 results have been restated to reflect the change in the presentation of our outbound revenues, as discussed in the “Presentation of Financial Information” section.

Revenues from our local exchange service decreased by Php234 million, or 2%, to Php15,108 million in 2011 from Php15,342 million in 2010 primarily due to a decrease in ARPU on account of lower fixed charges due to the increase in demand for bundled voice and data services and the decrease in installation charges, partially offset by an increase in wired and PLP lines as a result of the launching of PLDT Call All service promotions related to PLP and the effect of the inclusion of Digitel’s revenues for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011. The percentage contribution of local exchange revenues to our total fixed line service revenues accounted for 26% in each of 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Rates

Basic monthly charges for our local exchange service in the Metropolitan Manila area were Php592.63 for a single-party residential line and Php1,234.02 for a single business line as at December 31, 2011. Monthly charges vary according to the type of customer (business or residential) and location, with charges for urban customers generally being higher than those for rural/provincial customers. Regular installation charges amount to Php1,100 for residential customers and Php1,500 for business customers. New products launched on promotion or products bundled on existing services usually waive the installation fee or allow for a minimal installation fee of Php500. Aside from basic monthly charges, we charge our postpaid subscribers separately for NDD, IDD and calls to mobile phones. Calls to PLDT and other landlines within a local area code are free. Our prepaid fixed line customers generally do not pay a basic monthly charge and are charged based on usage.

PLDT offers both prepaid and postpaid PLP, where subscribers to the services benefit from a text-capable home phone which allows subscribers to bring the telephone set anywhere within the home zone area. These services are primarily intended for subscribers in areas where PLDT has no facilities and is expected to increase our fixed line subscriber base.

For the PLP postpaid regular service, there are two plans being offered: (a) Plan 600 with 600 free local outgoing minutes; and (b) Plan 1,000 with 1,000 free local outgoing minutes; and a charge of Php1 per minute in excess of free minutes for both plans. Another postpaid service currently offered is the Call All plan wherein PLP is bundled with PLDT fixed line service for a monthly service fee of Php850. PLDT also offers the Internet@Home service, which is a voice and data bundle offered in two plans with monthly service fees of Php990 and Php1,299.

For the PLP prepaid service, there are two load plans being offered: (i) Php300 load denomination with free 150 local outgoing minutes; and (ii) Php600 load denomination with free 600 local outgoing minutes. Both prepaid plans include unlimited incoming calls for one month, and charges Php2 per minute and Php1 per minute in excess of free local outgoing minutes for Php300 and Php600 denominations, respectively.

Pursuant to a currency exchange rate adjustment, or CERA, a mechanism authorized by the NTC, we are allowed to adjust our postpaid monthly local service rates upward or downward by 1% for every Php0.10 change in the Philippine peso-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate relative to a base rate of Php11.00 to US$1.00. In a letter dated July 11, 2008, the NTC had approved our request to implement a rate rationalization program for our local service rates. In effect, there has been no change in our monthly local service rates until the end of 2010. Further, in 2011, we have not made any adjustment in our monthly local service rates.

For a detailed description of these rates, see “– International Long Distance Service – Rates” and “– National Long Distance Service – Rates.”

In the first quarter of 2005, HB No. 926 was filed and is pending in the House of Representatives of the Philippines. The proposed bill provides for the cancellation of the currency exchange rate mechanism currently in place. If this bill is passed into law or if the NTC issues guidelines to change the basis of the currency exchange rate mechanism, our ability to generate U.S. dollar linked revenues from our local exchange business could be adversely affected.

International Long Distance Service

Our international long distance service consists of switched voice and packet-based voice and data services that go through our international gateway facilities. We also generate international long distance revenues through access charges paid to us by other Philippine telecommunications carriers for incoming international voice calls that terminate to our local exchange network. Our packet-based voice and data services are transmitted over our existing traditional circuits, VoIP systems and the network of a consortium of dominant carriers in Asia in which PLDT is a member.

The following table shows certain information about our international long distance services for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009:

International long distance service historically has been a major source of our revenue. However, the decline in inbound termination and collection rates and intense competition have lowered our international long distance service revenues in the past years. Pursuant to a number of initiatives to strengthen our international long distance service business, revenues derived from our international long distance service have improved in 2011.

We have been pursuing a number of initiatives to strengthen our international long distance service business, including: (i) lowering our inbound termination rates; (ii) identifying and containing unauthorized traffic termination

on our network; (iii) being more selective in accepting incoming traffic from second- and third-tier international carriers; and (iv) introducing a number of marketing initiatives, including substantial cuts in international direct dialing rates, innovative pricing packages for large accounts and loyalty programs for customers. In addition, through PLDT Global, we aggregate inbound call traffic to the Philippines at our points of presence and, using our capacity in submarine cable systems connected to each point of presence, transmit calls to our network. PLDT Global is also enhancing the presence of PLDT in other international markets by offering new products and services such as international prepaid cards, mobile services, SMS transit and other global bandwidth services. We believe these strategies will help us maximize the use of our existing international facilities, and develop alternative sources of revenue.

The table below sets forth the net settlement amounts for international calls handled by PLDT, by country, for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009:

Rates

The average termination rate for PLDT was approximately US$0.105 per minute in 2009 and US$0.10 per minute in 2010 and 2011.

Rates for outbound international long distance calls are based on type of service, whether operator-assisted or direct-dialed. Our rates are quoted in U.S. dollars and are billed in Philippine pesos. The Philippine peso amounts are determined at the time of billing. We charge a flat rate of US$0.40 per minute to retail customers for direct-dialed calls, applicable to all call destinations at any time on any day of the week.

We also offer international long distance service through PLDT Budget Card, a prepaid call card, which offers low-priced international calling services at IDD call rates ranging from Php1.50 per minute to Php15.00 per minute depending on the destination to more than 100 calling destinations (excluding the Middle East). Budget Card Middle East Edition offers reduced IDD call rates of Php10 per minute and Php15 per minute to 14 different destinations in the Middle East. Budget Card and Budget Card Middle East Edition are sold in denominations of Php200, Php100 and Php30 and must be consumed within 30 days from first use.

To cater to the growing OFW market, Digitel launched Choice Elite, a special plan which offers outbound IDD rates to top destination countries for as low as US$0.14 per minute. The mindset of targeting OFW families in Luzon also became the primary reason why recent product bundles for Digitel DSL and Suntel offered a US$0.10 per minute calling to select country destinations. Standard IDD rate of US$0.40 per minute is being offered in all Digitel regular retail plans (Metered and Non Metered). Digitel also offers prepaid international call services via DGMAX, a pure IDD card that offers low-priced IDD calling services with rates ranging from Php1.50 per minute to Php15 per minute to different destinations. DGMAX are sold in two denominations of Php100 and Php50 and must be consumed within 30 days and 15 days, respectively, from first use.

National Long Distance Service

Our national long distance services are provided primarily through PLDT. This service consists of voice services for calls made by our fixed line customers outside of their local service areas within the Philippines and access charges paid to us by other telecommunications carriers for wireless and fixed line calls carried through our backbone network and/or terminating to our fixed line customers.

(2) | The 2010 and 2009 results have been restated to reflect the change in the presentation of our outbound revenues, as discussed in the “Presentation of Financial Information” section.

Cellular substitution and the widespread availability and growing popularity of alternative, more economical non-voice means of communications, particularly e-mailing, cellular text messaging and the use of social networking sites, have negatively affected our national long distance call volumes partially offset by the effect of the inclusion of Digitel’s revenues for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011 and higher ARPU primarily as a result of ceasing certain promotions on our national long distance calling rates. The integration of some of our local exchanges into a single local calling area, as approved by the NTC, as well as the interconnection among local telcos, has also negatively affected our national long distance call volumes, and consequently, our revenues. Because of this integration, calls between two exchanges located within the same province are no longer considered national long distance calls but are treated as local calls.

Rates

Rates for national long distance calls traditionally were based on type of service, such as whether the call is operator-assisted or direct-dialed. However, in line with its move towards rate simplification, PLDT simplified these rates in recent years to a flat rate of Php5.00 per minute for calls originating and terminating to PLDT fixed line network, and for calls terminating to fixed line networks of other LECs. Additionally, in recent years, PLDT simplified its rates for calls terminating to cellular subscribers to a uniform rate of Php14.00 per minute.

In addition, PLDT launches promotions from time to time to stimulate fixed line usage.

We continue to evaluate the rate structure of our national long distance services from per minute toll charges to flat rates per call for calls of unlimited duration. This is envisioned to make fixed line rates more competitive with VoIP rates and to revitalize interest in fixed line usage. We continue to study various pricing models in respect of the above new rate plans.

PLDT currently has interconnection arrangements with the majority of other LECs, pursuant to which the originating carrier pays: (1) a hauling charge of Php0.50 per minute for short-haul traffic or Php1.25 per minute for long-haul traffic to the carrier owning the backbone network; and (2) an access charge of Php1.00 per minute to the terminating carrier. PLDT still maintains revenue-sharing arrangements with a few other LECs, whereby charges are generally apportioned 30% for the originating entity, 40% for the backbone owner and the remaining 30% for the terminating entity. See “– Interconnection Agreements” for more information on these interconnection arrangements.

Data and Other Network Services

Our data and other network service revenues include charges for leased lines, IP-based, packet-based and switched-based services. These services are used for domestic and international communications such as private networking, broadband and narrowband internet-based data communications, and packet-based communication.

Recognizing the growth potential of data and other networking services, including IP-based services, and in light of their importance to our business strategy, we have been putting considerable emphasis on these service segments. These segments registered the highest percentage growth in revenues among our fixed line services in 2010 and continued to grow in 2011.

The continuous upgrading of our network using next-generation facilities and the completion of our domestic fiber optic backbone has enabled us to offer a growing range of value-added and broadband services. With this and other technological upgrades, our infrastructure has developed from a traditional voice facility to a nationwide data network.

Domestic data services consist of broadband data services and leased lines and other data services.

In 2011, we continued to broaden our service offerings with the launch of new services and expansion or enhancement of some of the existing offerings.

Broadband data services include PLDT DSL broadband internet service, which is intended for individual internet users, small and medium enterprises, and large corporate subscribers with multiple branches, and PLDT WeRoam, our broadband service, running on the PLDT Group’s nationwide wireless network (using GPRS, EDGE, 3G/HSDPA/HSPA/HSPA+ and WiFi technologies).

WeRoam mobile broadband offers enterprise-grade postpaid packages that include unlimited internet or VPN access with maximum speeds of 3.6 Mbps via HSPA technology. VAS such as cloud-based web security and premium static IP addressing are also available to enterprise customers. WeRoam is offered at monthly recurring fees of Php1,300, Php1,500, Php1,750 or Php2,000 depending on the type of plan selected.

The WeRoam Notebook Shop bundles WeRoam with the latest Lenovo business laptops to provide companies with powerful mobile productivity solutions. The WeRoam Notebook Shop is available in three packages, Portable, Productive and Performance, depending on the computing power needed, offered at monthly recurring fees ranging from Php2,520 to Php8,926.

Miscellaneous

Miscellaneous services provide directory advertising, facilities management, rental fees and other services which are conducted through our wholly-owned subsidiary, ePLDT, and its subsidiaries, a broad-based integrated information and communications technology company, focusing on infrastructure and solutions for internet applications and online gaming.

Business Process Outsourcing

We conduct our BPO business through the operation of our knowledge processing solutions and customer relationship management. Revenues from our BPO business are mainly denominated in U.S. dollars and as such are impacted by the strength of the Philippine peso. Our BPO business registered revenues of Php8,588 million, Php8,112 million and Php8,534 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively, accounting for 5% of our total revenues in each year. The growth in the revenue contribution from our BPO business was primarily due to the continued growth of our knowledge processing solutions business service revenues.

Knowledge Processing Solutions

We provide knowledge processing solutions through the SPi Group. Our knowledge processing solutions business provides services such as: (i) editorial and content production services to the scholarly scientific, technical and medical journal publishing industry; (ii) digital content conversion services to information organizations; (iii) pre-press project management services to book publishers; (iv) conversion services of medical records/data from handwritten or speech format to electronic format and patient scheduling, coding and compliance assistance, consulting and specialized reporting services; and (v) revenue cycle management, transcription and coding compliance services for U.S. medical facilities.

Infrastructure

Wireless Network Infrastructure

Cellular

Through Smart and DMPI, we operate a digital GSM network. To meet the growing demand for cellular services, Smart and DMPI have implemented an extensive deployment program for its GSM network covering substantially all of Metropolitan Manila and most of the other population centers in the Philippines. As at December 31, 2011, Smart and DMPI have 78 mobile switching centers, 70 text messaging service centers and 15,502 cellular/mobile broadband base stations in operation after having added 2,667 base stations to its nationwide cellular network in 2011, including DMPI’s mobile switching centers of 30, text messaging centers of 6 and base stations of 2,213 due to the acquisition of Digitel on October 26, 2011.

Smart has an operating spectrum of 7.5 MHz in the 900 band and 20 MHz in the 1800 band for its GSM network; 15 MHz in the 2100 band and 10 MHz in the 850 band assigned for 3G and W-CDMA. Smart was awarded a 3G license by the NTC in 2005 and received the largest radio frequency allocation of 15 MHz. Smart chose the 1920-1935 MHz and 2110-2125 MHz spectrum, the range that would best enable it to rapidly deploy its 3G network nationwide and at the same time offer the highest quality of 3G service. CURE was assigned 10 MHz of 3G frequency bandwidth in the 1955-1965 to 1955-2155 MHz spectrum, which is the subject of the divestment plan as presented by PLDT to the NTC in relation to PLDT’s acquisition of Digitel. DMPI has a total operating spectrum of 17.5 MHz in the 1800 band and 10 MHz band in the 2100 band, with the latter under the 1935-1945 MHz and 2125-2135 MHz spectrum, contiguous to Smart’s 15 MHz spectrum. See Item 4. “Information on the Company – Recent Developments” for further discussion.

Smart has been co-locating its cell sites where its base stations are installed. In addition, 23 of Smart’s mobile switching centers were housed in PLDT’s fixed line complexes as at December 31, 2011. These operational synergies have allowed Smart to reduce switch installation time from three months to five weeks. Due to its access to PLDT’s network facilities, Smart has been able to achieve significant capital expenditure savings, which capital expenditures are understood to be significantly less, on a per net addition basis, than its current competitors. This translates into an improved ability to price competitively and target the mass market subscriber base in the Philippines, while retaining profitability.

Smart has been continuously extending its 3G footprint and since it commenced with 70% population coverage and expects to cover more by the end of 2012 as part of the 3G rollout and expansion program. The 3G network revolutionizes mobile technology by providing more capacity, faster data rates and richer data and video applications. Smart has also been deploying its HSPA+ network in urban areas where there is a demand for mobile broadband applications and where HSPA+ mobile units are more likely to be available.

Smart launched its fourth generation (4G) Long Term Evolution, or LTE, network in April 2011. To date, Smart has fired up its LTE network in over 30 locations in the Philippines. Forthcoming are deployments in select high traffic areas in the nation’s capital and strategic locations to benefit more members of the Philippine population.

The PLDT Group is currently undertaking a massive network modernization program to expand capacity, enhance capabilities of the network, and further improve on the quality of the subscriber experience to meet the increasing demand for cellular and advanced broadband services in a highly competitive playing field. The modernized network is expected to support advanced multimedia services, as well as upcoming technologies in Smart’s technology roadmap, and also enable Smart to accommodate a steadily increasing mainstream voice and SMS services due to bucket and unlimited offerings. The program, which is estimated to cost P67 billion will also include convergent IT transformation that will enhance business analytics, customer relations management and operations support systems. Initially launched in 2011 as a two-year program, the upgrade has been accelerated and should be substantially completed within 2012.

With the acquisition of Digitel, there is added opportunity to further strengthen the PLDT Group network by harmonizing the ongoing modernization program with Sun Cellular’s network that should generate significant potential synergies on capital expenditure optimization and cost efficiencies from co-location of base stations, consolidation of overlapping technical systems, reduction in cost duplications, bulk purchasing of network equipment, platforms, systems, devices and other materials in a shared service environment.

Wireless Broadband, Satellite and Other Services

SBI operates a nationwide broadband wireless internet data services. It is operating in the 2.4, 2.5, 3.5 and 5.7 GHz spectrum, supporting its WiFi, Canopy and WiMax services, respectively. It offers fixed wireless broadband internet connectivity to both residential and corporate clients. It also maintains and operates WiFi hotspots installations that serve mobile internet users. Smart also upgraded its 3G network to HSDPA to provide users with

##### Table of Contents

high download data rates and an improved broadband experience. More than 2,500 of Smart’s base stations are now wireless broadband-capable, covering most of the key cities and the other populated centers in the country. These are strategically co-located in Smart’s cellular base stations that allow it to efficiently reach many subscribers. For its backbone, it uses the nationwide PLDT and Smart fiber optic and IP backbone that provide substantial bandwidth capacity to utilize and to grow on demand.

ACeS Philippines manages, controls and operates its own satellite gateway and other ground infrastructure, including a 13-meter feeder-link C-band earth station, beam congruency antenna and equipment that serve as the primary interface between the ACeS System and other telecommunications networks. It uses the Garuda I satellite to transmit digital voice services to ACeS System, mobile and fixed terminal users within the Asian service area.

Fixed Line Network Infrastructure

Domestic

Our domestic telephone network includes installed telephones and other equipment on customers’ premises, local access lines connecting customers to exchanges, referred to as “outside plant,” inter-office lines connecting exchanges, and long distance transmission equipment. We have a total of 271 central office exchanges nationwide as at December 31, 2011 and are continuously expanding the wireline infrastructure in unserved and underserved areas using new technology.

We are continuing the upgrade of our fixed line facilities to the NGN, an IP-based platform that can deliver voice and data services using the same network. NGN enables us to replace the ageing Public Switched Telephone Network, transfer existing customers to this newer platform, and acquire new customers for voice and data services. We expect to complete the upgrading of our fixed line facilities to NGN in 2015, providing subscribers with a diversified range of telecommunication services using IP technology.

This year, complementing our core and transport NGN infrastructure, we started the roll-out of a more advanced access technology called Fiber-To-The-Home, or FTTH. FTTH employs fiber optics all the way up to customer premises. To realize this, we are building a fiber distribution network to connect homes and other premises. This new optical fiber distribution network will eventually replace conventional copper cable. At present, FTTH is potentially capable of delivering up to 2.5Gbps bandwidth to customers. This huge bandwidth, when tapped, could enable the Company to additionally deliver highbandwidth content to homes, including high definition broadcast television channels, video-on-demand, and other new services now being offered by leading telcos abroad. We began deploying FTTH in high-end and selected upper middle villages in Metro Manila.

We are also continuously upgrading our data and transport networks to IP-based platform. This enables us to also retire our old data network and provide new capabilities to our corporate data customers. We also expect to complete this project in 2015.

We also have an Internet Gateway that provides premium service with high-speed, reliable and managed connectivity to the internet. The gateway is composed of high capacity and high performance routers that serve as our IP network gateway to the rest of the world. It provides premium internet service to all types of customers ranging from ordinary broadband to high bandwidth internet requirements of corporate customers, knowledge processing solution providers, internet service providers and other service providers.

Furthermore, we have several networks that provide domestic and international connectivity for corporate customers and other carriers. These include the Multi-Service Access Platform, or MSAP, based on synchronous digital hierarchy, or SDH, technology and legacy data networks that provide wide range of bandwidth from low speed to high speed capacity in Gigabits per seconds. These networks are deployed in strategic areas nationwide comprising of more than a thousand nodes. This year, we have started deployment of Carrier Ethernet Network to serve the growing demand for Ethernet services from the corporate segment and prepare the network to deliver TV services.

We have our own Domestic Fiber Optic Network (DFON) composed of 10,050 kilometers of fiber optic cable installed across the country connecting its major islands. It is the first fiber optic backbone in the country and is used in delivering voice, video, data, and other broadband and multimedia services nationwide. Our fiber optic network which uses Reconfigurable Optical Add-Drop Multiplexer (ROADM) technology is composed of 48 nodes connected by terrestrial d and submarine cable links and is configured in seven self-healing rings and three self-healing

subtending rings which allow continuous flow of traffic in the event of single link failure. Selected rings are provided with a third fiber optic cable route which further protects the network from outages in case of double/multiple link failures within the ring. To date, the PLDT DFON has an aggregate capacity of 2.3 Terabits per second and is connected directly to three international submarine cable systems. The DFON is complemented by terrestrial microwave backbone to deliver services to remote areas.

We likewise have an IP backbone network composed of high-capacity, high-performance core and edge routers which provides connectivity to all IP-based network elements of PLDT, Smart, other affiliates and subsidiaries, and corporate customers. It serves as the single IP transport platform for all IP-based services of PLDT.

For many years and until today, PLDT has been using the poles of Meralco in Metropolitan Manila and in the rest of Meralco’s services areas for PLDT’s outside plant aerial cable pursuant to lease agreements with Meralco.

The recently acquired Digitel has fixed line infrastructure that has similarities to PLDT’s in terms of network architecture and technologies used. It has legacy PSTN network in all of its service areas in Luzon and Metro Manila and has also a DSL network deployed in majority of its service areas. Digitel has a Luzon-wide transmission system consisting of microwave radio and fiber optics systems used to connect transit exchanges and other operators. Majority of its transmission network is running on microwave radio systems. Digitel has its own IP backbone, internet gateway and international voice gateway.

Considering the similarity of technology used, service coverage and products being offered, there is significant potential gain for cost efficiency via a converged network. PLDT and Digitel have embarked on synergy initiatives to rationalize and integrate the network which includes the outside plant, the DSL network, the IP backbone, the transmission systems, the internet gateway, international voice gateway, the PSTN, and NGN, among others. The customer care systems and operation support systems will also be rationalized and integrated to align with the converged network.

International

We provide international network services via two international gateways located in the cities of Manila and Makati. At the moment we have two new IP softswitches that will replace our two legacy switches which we use to provide international voice services. As at December 31, 2011, our international long distance facilities allow direct correspondence with 40 countries (representing 86 correspondents) and can reach 668 foreign destinations (via direct and transited routes including fix and mobile breakouts) worldwide.

Likewise, Digitel has two international gateway facility switches, one in Binalonan, Pangasinan and another in Quezon City. These two gateway facilities, combined, can provide instant connectivity to more than 200 international destinations which complement PLDT’s reach.

We also own interests in submarine cable systems, through which we route all of our international voice and data traffic as well as private data lines.

The table below shows the submarine cable systems in which PLDT has interests and the countries or territories they link:

Cable System |  | Countries Being Linked
Asia-Pacific Cable Network 2 |  | Philippines, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, China and Taiwan

On January 27, 2011, PLDT signed the Asia Submarine-cable Express (ASE) Construction and Maintenance Agreement with leading telecommunication companies of Japan and Singapore. ASE will initially connect the Philippines, Japan, Hong Kong and Singapore. ASE will also have a Malaysian landing which together with certain fibers of ASE, will be used by Malaysia. Construction is on full swing. PLDT is building a new cable landing station in Daet, Camarines Norte for ASE. This new landing station situated in the eastern coast of the Philippines will complement and provide resiliency to the existing PLDT and Digitel cable landing stations located at the western portion and near the northern tip of the country. ASE is expected to be operational by the third quarter of 2012, with the Japan, Philippines and Singapore landings becoming available ahead of the Hong Kong landing, which will be on stream by January 2013.

In August 2011, the APCN2 Stage 1e/2b upgrade project was completed, providing PLDT with additional capacity (in multiple 10Gs). PLDT has acquired the transpacific capacities in Unity and TGN-P to interconnect with APCN2 for data connection requirements. PLDT has also participated in the AAG upgrade and another APCN2 upgrade, which are expected to be ready for service by the third quarter of 2012.

Adding up to the above inventory is Digitel’s submarine cable capacities in East Asia Crossing (EAC) and China-United States Cable Network (CUCN).

The extent of PLDT’s international cable infrastructure provides not only significant capacity in support of the business, it also ensures resiliency and redundancy in order to minimize service disruptions and guarantee continuity of service.

Interconnection Agreements

Since the issuance of Executive Order No. 59 in 1993, which requires non-discriminatory interconnection of Philippine carriers’ networks, we have entered into bilateral interconnection arrangements with other Philippine fixed line and cellular carriers.

In January 2009, local access charge for domestic calls from fixed line to other network’s fixed line is charged at Php3.00 per minute; calls from fixed line to CMTS is charged at Php4.00 per minute. Meanwhile, CMTS calls to fixed line network remains at Php3.00 per minute.

PLDT is an Inter Exchange Carrier providing transit service among CMTS, LEC operators including the Philippine Association of Public Telecommunications Company, or PAPTELCO. Transit is a service being provided by PLDT to connect calls from one carrier to other carriers that have no direct interconnection. Since January 2009, PLDT’s transit fee remains at Php0.50 per minute for short haul (intra-island), Php1.25 per minute for long-haul (inter-island) and Php1.14 per minute for CMTS calls.

PLDT has continuously and actively negotiated with other legitimate Philippine fixed and CMTS carriers for interconnection based on the guidelines being issued by the NTC or any authorized government agency. These carriers include the major fixed and mobile players in the industry with nationwide operations, PAPTELCO and other non-PAPTELCO players, both of which usually operate in selected towns in the countryside. As at December 31, 2011, PAPTELCO has 43 member companies operating 119 main telephone exchanges in the countryside.

The average international termination rate for calls to PLDT was approximately US$0.105 per minute in 2009, US$0.10 per minute in 2010 and US$0.095 in 2011. Despite the global trend towards reductions in wholesale international termination rates, PLDT has only implemented modest rate reduction since 2009. Also, PLDT carries international calls terminating to Smart network where it has no direct interconnection. As at December 31, 2011, PLDT is interconnected with 86 foreign carriers from 40 countries worldwide with 668 international destinations.

The average international termination rate for calls to Smart was approximately US$0.125 per minute in 2011, 2010 and 2009. Access charge for SMS from Smart to other CMTS operators and vice versa had been reduced from Php0.35 per SMS to Php0.15 per SMS effective November 30, 2011, as mandated by the NTC through Memorandum Circular No. 02-10-2011.

##### Table of Contents

The average termination rates for international calls terminating Digitel were approximately US$0.100 per minute in 2011 and 2010, and US$0.1010 per minute in 2009 and for international calls terminating DMPI were approximately US$0.1035 per minute, in 2011 and 2010, and US$0.1041 per minute in 2009. Effective January 1, 2004, local access for cellular operators, including Smart, that terminate calls to Digitel’s fixed line network amounted to Php3.00 per minute.

Licenses and Regulations

Licenses

PLDT, SubicTel, ClarkTel, Philcom, Smart, Digitel, SBI and CURE provide telecommunications services pursuant to legislative franchises which will expire, in the case of PLDT, on November 28, 2028; in the case of SubicTel, in 2019; in the case of ClarkTel, on June 30, 2024; in the case of Philcom, in November 2019; in the case of Digitel, February 2019; in the case of Smart, on March 27, 2017 and with respect to spectrum transferred from PCEV, on May 14, 2019; in the case of SBI, on July 14, 2022; in the case of DMPI, on December 11, 2027; and in the case of CURE, on April 24, 2026, although PLDT has agreed to divest the CURE spectrum as a part of the NTC decision with respect to PLDT’s acquisition of a controlling interest in Digitel. A franchise holder is required to obtain operating authority from the NTC to provide specific telecommunications services. These approvals may take the form of a CPCN, or, while an application for a CPCN is pending, a provisional authority to operate. Provisional authorities are typically granted for a period of 18 months. The Philippine Revised Administrative Code of 1987 provides that if the grantee of a license or permit, such as a CPCN or provisional authority, has made timely and sufficient application for the extension thereof, the existing CPCN or provisional authority will not expire until the application is finally decided upon by the administrative agency concerned.

PLDT

PLDT operates its business pursuant to a number of provisional authorities and CPCNs, the terms of which will expire at various times between now and 2028. The CPCNs pursuant to which PLDT may provide services to most of the Metropolitan Manila area, Davao and other Philippine cities expired in 2003. Although some of PLDT’s CPCNs and provisional authorities have already expired, PLDT filed applications for extension of these CPCNs and provisional authorities prior to their respective expiration dates and is therefore entitled to continue to conduct its business under its existing CPCNs and provisional authorities pending the NTC’s decision on these extensions. PLDT expects that the NTC will grant these extensions; however, there can be no assurance that this will occur. The periods of validity of some of PLDT’s CPCNs, has been extended further by the NTC to November 28, 2028, coterminous with PLDT’s current franchise under R.A. 7082. Motions to extend the period of validity of the other CPCNs to November 28, 2028 have been granted by the NTC. See Item 3. “Key Information – Risk Factors – Risk Relating to Us – Our business is significantly affected by governmental laws and regulations, including regulations in respect of our franchises, rates and taxes” for further discussion.

On August 22, 2008, PLDT was granted authority under NTC Case No. 2007-095 to operate in key cities and municipalities nationwide not yet covered by its existing CPCNs and/or authorizations. This approval extended the coverage of PLDT to all areas nationwide except for seven areas in Albay province. On July 17, 2009, the NTC granted PLDT a Provisional Authority under NTC Case No. 2006-078 to operate in the seven areas in Albay, thereby, authorizing it to operate nationwide.

On August 31, 2011, the NTC rendered its decision in NTC Case No. 2011-030 granting provisional authority for PLDT to participate in the ownership, construction and maintenance of the Asia Submarine-cable Express, or ASE, submarine cable network and further authorizing PLDT to construct the Philippine terminal station thereof in Daet, Province of Camarines Norte. The said provisional authority shall be valid 18 months from receipt thereof by PLDT or up to February 28, 2013.

Digitel

Digitel operates its business pursuant to a number of provisional authorities and CPCNs. Under these CPCNs, Digitel may provide services to: (a) install, operate, maintain and develop telecommunications facilities in Regions I to V; (b) install, operate and maintain telephone systems/networks/services in Quezon City, Valenzuela City and Malabon, Metro Manila and Tarlac; (c) install, operate and maintain an IGF in Binalonan, Pangasinan; (d) install, operate and maintain an IGF in Metro Manila; (e) operate and maintain a National Digital Transmission Network; (f) install, operate, and maintain a nationwide CMTS using GSM and/or CDMA technology; and (g) install, operate and maintain a cable landing station.

Smart

Smart operates its cellular, international long distance and national long distance services pursuant to CPCNs, the terms of which will expire upon the expiration of its franchise. On July 22, 2002, Smart was granted separate CPCNs to operate a CMTS and an international gateway facility. On August 26, 2002, Smart was granted a CPCN to install, operate and maintain nationwide global mobile personal communications via satellite which will also expire upon expiration of its franchise. On February 19, 2008, Smart was granted a CPCN to establish, install, maintain, lease and operate an international private leased circuit for a term that is coterminous with the expiration of its franchise. Prior to that, Smart was permitted to engage in these activities pursuant to a provisional authority and timely filed an application for the grant of such CPCN. On September 29, 2009, Smart was granted a provisional authority to install, operate and maintain a nationwide data communications network which is valid for 18 months or up to March 29, 2011. Smart filed a motion for issuance of CPCN or extension of provisional authority on March 03, 2011. Acting on the motion, the NTC issued an Order on June 24, 2011, extending the provisional authority from March 28, 2011 up to but not beyond March 28, 2014. On May 28, 2010, the NTC issued an order granting the extension of Smart’s provisional authority to construct, install, operate and maintain a nationwide public calling office and payphone service from January 5, 2010 up to January 4, 2013.

On December 29, 2005, Smart was awarded a 3G license by the NTC after being ranked the highest among the competing operators with a perfect score on a 30-point grading system designed to gauge the capability of telecommunication operators to effectively provide extensive 3G services. As a result, Smart received the largest radio frequency allocation of 15 MHz as well as first choice of frequency spectrum. Smart chose the 1920-1935 MHz and 2110-2125 MHz spectrums. Smart is required to pay annual license fees of Php115 million based on the 15 MHz of paired spectrum awarded to Smart.

Smart received CMTS frequency band 825-835/870-880 MHz from PCEV for additional 3G use on March 6, 2008. Smart is now required to pay to NTC the spectrum user fee, or SUF, of Php150 million based on the additional 10 MHz of 3G frequencies.

Under the terms of the 3G license, Smart was required to:

| • |  | begin installation and rollout of its 3G network no later than 18 months from the date of the award;

| • |  | start commercial operations no later than 30 months from the date of the award; and

| • |  | cover at least 80% of provincial capitals and 80% of chartered cities within five years.

DMPI

On August 28, 2003, the NTC approved the assignment by Digitel of its authority to construct, install, operate and maintain a nationwide CMTS using GSM and/or CDMA technology to its wholly-owned subsidiary, DMPI. DMPI operates under the trade name Sun Cellular and is likewise a grantee of a 25-year legislative franchise under R.A. 9180, which will expire on December 11, 2027. DMPI was also awarded a 3G license by the NTC with 10 MHz radio frequency allocation.

SBI

PCEV was authorized to provide virtually every type of telecommunication services, including the transmission of voice, data facsimile, audio and video and information services, in and between provinces, cities and municipalities throughout the Philippines. The franchise, which was last amended on May 14, 1992, will expire on May 14, 2019 and may be extended by a legislative act of the Philippine Congress. On January 8, 2010, the NTC approved the transfer to SBI of PCEV’s CPCN to establish, construct, operate and maintain a nationwide CMTS and PCEV is now an investment holding company.

SBI is a grantee of a 25-year legislative franchise under R.A. 8337, which will expire on July 14, 2022, to construct, install, establish, maintain, lease and operate wire and/or wireless telecommunications system throughout the Philippines.

54

##### Table of Contents

On August 26, 2009, the NTC granted SBI a CPCN for the installation, operation and maintenance of the data leased channel circuit network service for a period coterminous with the life of its existing franchise. SBI is a grantee of a provisional authority for the expansion of its data leased channel circuit network service in several areas in Zamboanga Sibugay, Sultan Kudarat, Southern Leyte, Biliran, Compostela Valley, Davao Oriental, Dinagat Island and Shariff Kabunsuan. The provisional authority is valid for 18 months from September 29, 2009 until March 29, 2011. SBI filed a motion for issuance of CPCN or extension of provisional authority on March 2, 2011. The said motion is still pending resolution by the NTC. SBI is also a grantee of a provisional authority for the installation, operation and maintenance of international leased line service that was valid up to February 2005 and the motion for extension of which remains pending with the NTC as at the date of this annual report.

CURE

CURE is a grantee of a 25-year congressional franchise under R.A. 9130, which will expire on April 24, 2026, to construct, install, establish, maintain, lease and operate wire and/or wireless telecommunications system throughout the Philippines. The NTC granted CURE a provisional authority to install, operate and maintain a nationwide 3G network on January 3, 2006 valid for 18 months, which was subsequently extended for three years from January 4, 2007 until January 3, 2010. On December 3, 2009, CURE filed a motion for issuance of CPCN or extension on the provisional authority. CURE had also submitted its roll-out plan to the NTC on January 4, 2010. As at the date of this annual report, this motion is still pending with the NTC. The congressional franchise, spectrum and associated permits of CURE are expected to be divested as part of the NTC decision with respect to the Digitel acquisition. See Item 4. “Information on the Company – Development Activities (2009-2011) – Divestment of CURE” for further information.

PDSI

PDSI is a grantee of a 25-year congressional franchise under R.A. 8992 which will expire on January 26, 2026 to construct, install, establish, operate and maintain for commercial purposes and in the public interest, the business of providing basic and enhanced telecommunication services in and between provinces and municipalities in the Philippines and between the Philippines and other countries and territories.

PDSI is a holder of a provisional authority issued by the NTC to construct, install, operate and maintain an information and data communication network in key cities and municipalities in the Philippines on December 22, 2005 with validity of 18 months or until June 22, 2007, which has been successively extended by the NTC thereafter.

Material Effects of Regulation on our Business

Operators of international gateway facilities and cellular telephone operators, pursuant to Executive Order No. 109, are required to install a minimum number of local exchange lines. Of these new lines, operators are required to install one rural exchange line for every ten urban exchange lines installed. Smart and PCEV were required to install 700,000 and 400,000 rural lines, respectively, and each has received a certificate of compliance from the NTC.

PLDT, SubicTel, ClarkTel, Philcom, Smart, Digitel, PCEV, SBI and CURE, are required to pay various permit, regulation and supervision fees to the NTC. PLDT was previously engaged in disputes with the NTC over some of the assessed fees. For more information on the disputes involving PLDT, see Item 8. “Financial Information – Legal Proceedings – NTC SRF.”

During the 15th Philippine Congress in 2010, Smart was requested to attend a hearing regarding HB No. 1224 or the Corporate Social Responsibility Act Bill filed by Rep. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo and Rep. Diosdado Macapagal-Arroyo. Aside from this proposed legislation, both the Congress and the Senate of the Philippines have pending bills filed by various legislators concerning Anti-Trust, Competition and the setting up of a Fair Trade Commission. Senate Bill No. 1 introduced by Sen. Juan Ponce Enrile seeks to penalize unfair trade and anti-competitive practices in restraint of trade, unfair competition, abuse of dominant power and aims to strengthen the powers of regulatory authorities. The bill penalizes cartelization, monopolization, abuse of monopoly power or dominant position, and other unfair competition practices. The PLDT Group submitted its position paper on the bill on November 11, 2010. Other Senate bills which have been introduced during the 15 th Congress on the subject matter are Senate Bill nos. 123, 175 and 1838. The various committee hearings on these Senate bills have already been concluded and the Senate of the Philippines is expected to come out with one final version in substitution of these various Senate Bills any time soon. House Bill No. 4835, a consolidated bill in substitution of House Bills Nos. 549, 913, 1007, 1583, 1733, and others, is a similar bill proposed in the House of Representatives, which penalizes anti-competitive agreements, abuse of dominant position, and anti-competitive mergers and establishes a Philippine Fair Competition Commission, or the Commission. Under this proposed bill, the Commission has the power, among others, to commence investigations on transactions, agreements, or acts, that prevent, distort or restrict competition. It is relevant that the bill considers a prima facie case of anti-competitive agreement when two or more firms that are ostensibly competing for the same relevant market and actually perform or complementary acts among themselves which tend to bring about artificial and unreasonable increase, decrease or fixing in the price of any goods or when they simultaneously and unreasonably increase, decrease or fix the prices of their seemingly competing goods thereby lessening competition in the relevant market among themselves. This bill has undergone third reading but to date, no final version has yet been released.

There are also bills introduced in the 15 th Congress of the Philippines which seek to regulate interconnection charges by either prescribing lower rates or, at worse, abolishing the same. Some of them are House Bill Nos. 4939 of Representative Winston Castelo, House Bill No. 4598 of Representative Joseph Violago and House Bill No. 2858 of Representatives Rufus B. Rodriguez and Maximo B. Rodriguez. Committee hearings on these bills are ongoing.

Since 2009, the NTC has issued a number of directives that regulate the manner in which we conduct our business:

| • |  | On July 3, 2009, the NTC issued Memorandum Circular No. 03-07-2009, imposing an extension of the expiration of the prepaid loads from two months to various expiration periods ranging from three days to 120 days. Smart has been implementing the new validity period of prepaid loads since July 19, 2009.

| • |  | On July 7, 2009, the NTC amended its rules on broadcast messaging in Memorandum Circular No. 04-07-2009, which prohibits content and/or information providers from initiating push messages. It further requires that requests for services must be initiated by the subscribers and not forced upon them by the public telecommunications entities and/or content providers. It further mandates that subscribers be sent a notification when they subscribe for any service and be given an option whether to continue with the availed service.

| • |  | On July 23, 2009, the NTC issued Memorandum Circular No. 05-07-2009 mandating cellular operators, including Smart, to charge calls on a maximum six-second per pulse basis instead of the previous per minute basis whether the subscriber is prepaid or postpaid. The NTC granted Smart the provisional authority to charge new rates and implement six-second per pulse scheme on December 5, 2009. Smart subsequently implemented the six-second per pulse directive by billing on a six-second per pulse basis, if subscribers entered additional dialing numbers as a prefix before the actual number. The NTC opposed Smart’s implementation of the six-second per pulse directive. In December 2009, Smart and other CMTS providers challenged the implementation of the NTC memorandum circular before the Court of Appeals, which issued a writ of preliminary injunction preventing the NTC from implementing its six-second per pulse billing directive. On December 28, 2010, the Court of Appeals promulgated a decision finding that the NTC had no basis to impose the rates it fixed for the six-second per pulse and that the CMTS operators have the option to file their rate applications anew. However, the Court ruled also that under the NTC memorandum circular, the six-second per pulse is the default mode and that the NTC has the power to regulate the rates of CMTS providers under Section 17 of R.A. 7925, even in the absence of ruinous competition, monopoly, cartel or combination thereof in restraint of free competition. The NTC, through the Office of the Solicitor General filed a motion for partial reconsideration of the decision which Smart opposed. Smart and the other petitioners, except DMPI, likewise filed separate motions for partial reconsideration. In an Order dated January 19, 2012, the Court of Appeals denied all motions for reconsideration. Smart and CURE filed their petitions for review with the Supreme Court on March 15, 2012 and March 12, 2012, respectively. The six-second per pulse billing scheme is expected to have a negative impact on Smart’s revenue, profit and ARPU as this is expected to decrease the amount of time billed per call as a result of moving to shorter billing intervals of six seconds from the previous one minute.

| • |  | On February 18, 2011, the NTC issued Memorandum Circular No. 01-02-2011 which among others required mobile phone providers like Smart and DMPI to: make internet access through mobile phones optional; inform their subscribers of charges for internet access through mobile phones; and remind subscribers through SMS if at least 50% of credit limit has already been consumed.

| • |  | On October 24, 2011, the NTC issued Memorandum Circular No. 02-10-2011 which mandates that interconnection charge for SMS between two separate networks shall not be higher than Php0.15 per SMS. Accordingly, Smart amended its interconnection amendments with other SMS providers in compliance with the circular. However, the NTC issued a show cause order dated December 12, 2011 requiring it to explain in writing within 15 days from receipt of the order why it has not lowered SMS retail rates despite the issuance of Memorandum Circular No. 02-10-2011. Smart and DMPI filed their answer on January 12, 2012, arguing, among others, that the circular does not mandate the reduction of SMS retail rates and that the NTC has no power to impose rates on mobile operators.

See Item 3. “Key Information – Risk Factors – Our business is significantly affected by governmental laws and regulations, including regulations in respect of our franchises, rates and taxes” for further discussion.

In order to diversify the ownership base of public utilities, the Public Telecommunications Policy Act R.A. 7925, requires a telecommunications entity with regulated types of services to make a public offering through the stock exchanges representing at least 30% of its aggregate common shares within a period of five years from: (a) the date the law became effective; or (b) the entity’s first start of commercial operations, whichever date is later. PLDT and PCEV have complied with this requirement. However, Smart and DMPI have not conducted a public offering of its shares. If Smart and DMPI are found to be in violation of R.A. 7925, this could result in the revocation of the franchises of Smart and DMPI and in the filing of a quo warranto case against Smart and DMPI by the Office of the Solicitor General of the Philippines. See Item 3. “Key Information – Risk Factors – The franchise of Smart and DMPI may be revoked due to their failure to conduct a public offering of their shares” for further discussion.

On April 14, 2009, the NTC released the implementing guidelines on developing reference access offers, which are statements of the prices, terms and conditions under which a telecommunications carrier proposes to provide access to its network or facilities to another such carrier or value-added service provider.

On July 15, 2011, the NTC issued Memorandum Circular No. 7-7-2011 which required broadband service providers to specify the minimum broadband/internet connection speed and service reliability and the service rates in advertisements, flyers, brochures and service agreements. The said Memorandum Circular also set the minimum service reliability of broadband service to 80%.

Further, on December 19, 2011, the NTC issued a Decision in NTC ADM Case 2009-048 which lowered the interconnection charge to/from LEC and to/from CMTS to Php2.50 per minute, from Php4.00 per minute for LEC to CMTS and Php3.00 per minute from CMTS to LEC, making it in parity with each other. PLDT and Smart separately filed their respective Motions for Reconsideration alleging among others that interconnection, including the rates thereof, should be by law a product of bilateral negotiations between the parties and the Decision is unconstitutional as it is an invalid exercise by the NTC of its quasi-legislative powers and violates the constitutional guarantee against non-impairment of contracts.

Competition

Including us, there are three major LECs, 11 international gateway facility providers and three major cellular operators in the country. Many new entrants into the Philippine telecommunications market have entered into strategic alliances with foreign telecommunications companies, which provide them access to technological and funding support as well as service innovations and marketing strategies. Consequently, we face increasing competition in major services of the telecommunications industry, particularly in data and other network services.

Cellular Service

There are presently three major cellular operators, namely Smart, DMPI and Globe, with DMPI now part of PLDT. These three cellular operators have a large share of the Philippine cellular market. DMPI commenced its cellular service with the Sun Cellular brand on March 29, 2003. In December 2005, the NTC awarded four out of five 3G licenses to existing cellular operators Smart, Globe, DMPI and to a new entrant, CURE. The NTC has yet to award a fifth license to another operator.

Competition in the cellular telecommunications industry has intensified with the increased availability of affordably priced handsets offering a range of new functions and the introduction by telco operators of new and improved plans for prepaid and postpaid subscribers, reduced rates per minute and aggressive marketing and promotional strategies. The principal bases of competition are price, including handset prices in the case of postpaid plans, quality of service, network reliability, geographic coverage and attractiveness of packaged services. Smart’s network leads the industry in terms of coverage with 14,879 cellular/mobile broadband base stations, including DMPI’s 4,376 base stations as at December 31, 2011.

As a result of competitive pressures, service providers, including Smart, have introduced “bucket” plans providing unlimited voice and text services, and other promotions. While most of the “bucket” priced plans currently available in the market are being offered on promotional bases, Smart, Globe and Sun Cellular continue to launch other services that are designed to encourage incremental usage from existing subscribers and also to attract new subscribers.

Cellular operators also compete actively in launching innovative products and VAS. The growing range of cellular products and services include not only text messaging but also multi-media messaging, voice mail, text mail, international roaming, information-on-demand, mobile banking, e-commerce, mobile data, cellular internet access and internet messaging.

On February 14, 2006, Smart opened its 3G network in selected key cities nationwide, making video calling, video streaming, high speed internet browsing and special 3G content downloads on its 3G network available to subscribers with 3G handsets. Likewise, Globe has been rolling out its 3G network.

Consistent with industry practice and Smart’s churn management efforts, Smart “locks” the handsets it sells to its subscribers, rendering them incompatible with SIM cards issued by competitors and thereby hindering them from swapping the existing SIM for a SIM of a competing operator. However, subscribers can have their handsets

##### Table of Contents

“unlocked” by unauthorized parties for a nominal fee and purchase new SIM cards from competing operators. “Unlocking” does not involve significant cost to the subscribers. Switching to another cellular operator would, however, result in a change of the subscriber’s cellular telephone number.

In order to avail themselves of promotions and cost efficient network-to-network calling rates, cellular subscribers in the Philippines have increasingly been subscribing to the services of multiple wireless operators. As a result, the increases in 2011 and 2010 in our cellular subscriber base and the penetration rate of the wireless market in the Philippines were primarily attributable to such “multiple SIM card ownership”.

Local Exchange Service

The concerted nationwide local exchange line build-out by various providers, as mandated by the Philippine government, significantly increased the number of fixed line subscribers in the country and resulted in wider access to basic telephone service. The growth of the fixed line market, however, remained weak due to the surge in demand for cellular services and, in the past, the general sluggishness of the Philippine economy. Nevertheless, we have sustained our leading position in the fixed line market on account of PLDT’s extensive network in key cities nationwide. In most areas, we face one or two competitors. Our principal competitors in the local exchange market are BayanTel and Globe, which provide local exchange service through both fixed and fixed wireless landline services.

There are currently four major fixed wireless landline services in the market that resemble a cellular phone service but provide the same tariff structure as a fixed line service such as the charging of monthly service fees. The earliest of such service was provided by Digitel, now part of PLDT, in the fourth quarter of 2005 at a fixed monthly rate of Php672. This service is provided mostly in selected areas of Southern and Northern Luzon where Digitel did not have fixed cable facilities. Globe quickly followed suit with a similar service at a monthly rate of Php995 which bundled a wireless landline and broadband internet connection of up to 384 kbps. This service is offered in limited areas of Metropolitan Manila such as Makati, Las Piñas, the Visayas region and selected areas of Southern Luzon such as Cavite and Batangas.

BayanTel launched a similar service at lower rates in the second half of 2006, which service maintains two major price points open to both residential and business subscribers. This service is available under two plans, a plan at a monthly rate of Php699 for customers in Metro Manila and a plan at a monthly rate of Php599 for customers in selected regional areas of the Philippines.

In March 2007, we introduced the PLP, a postpaid fixed wireless service which was initially available only in regional areas where there were no available PLDT fixed cable facilities. There are two plans being offered for the PLP postpaid regular service: (a) Plan 600 with 600 free local outgoing minutes; and (b) Plan 1,000 with 1,000 free local outgoing minutes, and a charge of Php1 per minute in excess of free minutes for both plans. In March 2008, we introduced the prepaid variant of the PLP. There are two load plans being offered for the PLP prepaid service: (a) Php300 load denomination with free 150 local outgoing minutes; and (b) Php600 load denomination with free 600 local outgoing minutes. Both prepaid plans include unlimited incoming calls for one month, and charges Php2 per minute and Php1 per minute in excess of free local outgoing minutes for Php300 and Php600 denominations, respectively.

International Long Distance Service

There are 11 licensed international gateway facility operators in the country, including us. While we still maintain a leadership position in this highly competitive service segment of the industry, our market share in recent years has declined as a result of: (1) competition from other international gateway facility operators and illegal international simple resale operators; (2) an increase in inbound and outbound international long distance calls terminating to and originating from the growing number of cellular subscribers; and (3) the popularity of alternative and cheaper modes of communication such as text messaging, e-mail, internet telephony and the establishment of virtual private networks for several corporate entities, further heightening the competition.

With respect to outbound calls from the Philippines, we compete for market share through our local exchange and cellular businesses, which are the origination points of outbound international calls. We also have introduced a number of marketing initiatives to stimulate growth of outbound call volumes, including tariff reductions and volume discounts for large corporate subscribers. Globe has also launched new pricing schemes to grow its outbound call volumes.

59

##### Table of Contents

With respect to inbound calls into the Philippines, we have been pursuing a number of initiatives to mitigate the decline in our inbound telecommunications traffic, including lowering our termination rates and identifying and limiting unauthorized traffic termination. In addition, we have also established presence, through our wholly-owned subsidiary PLDT Global, in key cities overseas to identify and capture Philippine terminating traffic at its source, maximize the use of our international facilities and develop alternative sources of revenue.

National Long Distance Service

Our national long distance service business has been negatively affected by the growing number of cellular subscribers in the Philippines and the widespread availability and growing popularity of alternative economical non-voice methods of communication, particularly text messaging and e-mail. In addition, various ISPs have launched voice services via the internet to their subscribers nationwide.

While national long distance call volumes have been declining, we have remained a leading provider of national long distance service in the Philippines due to our significant subscriber base and ownership of the Philippines’ most extensive transmission network.

PLDT launches from time to time promotions bundled with our other products to attract new subscribers, including free PLDT-to-PLDT NDD service.

Data and Other Network Services

The market for data and other network services is a growing segment in the Philippine telecommunications industry. The growth is spurred by the significant growth in consumer and retail broadband internet access, enterprise resource planning applications, customer relationship management, knowledge processing solutions, online gaming and other e-services that drive the need for broadband and internet-protocol based solutions both here and abroad. Our major competitors in this area are Globe and BayanTel. The principal bases of competition in data services market are coverage, price, value for money, bundles or free gifts, customer service and quality of service.

Environmental Matters

We have not been subject to any material fines or legal or regulatory action involving non-compliance with environmental regulations of the Philippines. We are not aware of any non-compliance in any material respect with relevant environmental protection regulations.

Intellectual Property Rights

We do not own any material intellectual property rights apart from our brand names and logos. We are not dependent on patents, licenses or other intellectual property which are material to our business or results of operations, other than licenses to use the software that accompany most of our equipment purchases.

Properties

We own four office buildings located in Makati City and own and operate 320 exchanges nationwide, of which 66 are located in the Metropolitan Manila area, including DMPI’s 19 exchanges. The remaining 254 exchanges are located in cities and small municipalities outside Metropolitan Manila area, including DMPI’s 30 exchanges. We also own radio transmitting and receiving equipment used for international and domestic communications. As at December 31, 2011, we had 10,482 cell sites, 14,879 cellular/mobile broadband base stations and 4,918 fixed wireless broadband-enabled base stations, which include DMPI’s 4,414 cell sites, 4,376 cellular/mobile broadband base stations and 2,132 fixed wireless broadband-enabled base stations.

As at December 31, 2011, our principal properties, excluding property under construction, consisted of the following, based on net book values:

| • |  | 71% consisted of cable, wire and cellular facilities, including our DFON, subscriber cable facilities, inter-office trunking and toll cable facilities and cellular facilities;

| • |  | 13% consisted of central office equipment, including international gateway facilities, pure national toll exchanges and combined local and toll exchanges;

60

##### Table of Contents

| • |  | 10% consisted of land and improvements and buildings, which we acquired to house our telecommunications equipment, personnel, inventory and/or fleet;

| • |  | 1% consisted of information origination and termination equipment, including pay telephones and radio equipment installed for customers use, and cables and wires installed within customers’ premises; and

| • |  | 5% consisted of other work equipment.

For more information on these properties, see Note 9 – Property, Plant and Equipment to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18.

These properties are located in areas where our subscribers are being served. In our opinion, these properties are in good condition, except for ordinary wear and tear, and are adequately insured.

The majority of our connecting lines are above or under public streets and properties owned by others. For example, for many years, the PLDT Group has been using the power pole network of Meralco in Metropolitan Manila for PLDT’s fixed line aerial cables in this area pursuant to short-term lease agreements with Meralco with typically five-year and more recently one-year terms.

PLDT’s, Smart’s, PCEV’s and Digitel’s properties are free from any mortgage, charge, pledge, lien or encumbrance; however, a portion of ePLDT’s property is subject to liens.

The PLDT Group has various lease contracts for periods ranging from one to ten years covering certain offices, warehouses, cell sites, telecommunications equipment locations and various office equipment. For more information on the obligations relating to these properties and long-term obligations, see Note 27 – Financial Assets and Liabilities to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18.

Item 4A. | Unresolved Staff Comments

None.

Item 5. | Operating and Financial Review and Prospects

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements (and the related notes) as at December 31, 2011 and 2010 and for the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011 included elsewhere in this report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and our future financial performance. These statements involve risks and uncertainties, and our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of particular factors such as those set forth under “Forward-Looking Statements” and Item 3. “Key Information – Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this report. Our consolidated financial statements, and the financial information discussed below, have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. For convenience, certain Philippine peso financial information in the following discussions has been translated to U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at December 31, 2011 of Php43.92 to US$1.00, as quoted through the Philippine Dealing System.

Overview

We are the largest and most diversified telecommunications company in the Philippines. We have organized our business into business units based on our products and services and have four reportable operating segments which serve as the basis for management’s decision to allocate resources and evaluate operating performance:

| • |  | Wireless — wireless telecommunications services provided by Smart Communications, Inc., or Smart, CURE, and DMPI, which is the operator of the Sun Cellular business and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Digitel (PLDT acquired a controlling interest in Digitel on October 26, 2011 and through a series of transactions holds approximately 99.5% of the outstanding common stock of Digitel as at March 22, 2012), our cellular service providers; SBI and PDSI, our wireless broadband service providers; Wolfpac and Chikka and its subsidiaries, or Chikka Group, our wireless content operators; and ACeS Philippines, our satellite operator;

| • |  | Fixed Line — fixed line telecommunications services primarily provided by PLDT. We also provide fixed line services through PLDT’s subsidiaries, namely, PLDT Clark Telecom, Inc., PLDT Subic

61

##### Table of Contents

| Telecom, Inc., PLDT-Philcom, Inc. or Philcom, and its subsidiaries, or Philcom Group, PLDT-Maratel, Inc., SBI, PDSI, Bonifacio Communications Corporation, PLDT Global, and Digitel, all of which together account for approximately 17% of our consolidated fixed line subscribers; and information and communications infrastructure and services for internet applications, internet protocol, or IP-based solutions and multimedia content delivery provided by ePLDT and AGS Group; netGames, Inc.; and bills printing and other VAS-related services provided by ePDS (ePLDT increased its equity interest in ePDS from 50% to 67% on August 24, 2011). ePLDT disposed of its 75% interest in Digital Paradise, a provider of internet access services, on April 1, 2011 and its 57.51% interest in Level Up!, a publisher of online games, on July 11, 2011;

| • |  | BPO –– knowledge processing solutions provided by SPi Group; and customer relationship management provided by SPi CRM and Infocom (ePLDT transferred the internet business of Infocom to PLDT on July 1, 2011); and

| • |  | Others –– PCEV, an investment holding company.

For a more detailed overview of our three main business segments, see Item 4. “Information on the Company – Organization – Wireless”, Item 4. “Information on the Company – Organization – Fixed Line” and Item 4. “Information on the Company – Organization – Business Process Outsourcing”, respectively.

Key performance indicators and drivers that our management uses for the management of our business include, among others, the general economic conditions in the Philippines, our subscriber base, traffic volumes, and interconnection arrangements.

In addition, our results of operations and financial position are with increasing significance affected by fluctuations of the Philippine peso against the U.S. dollar. Since a substantial portion of our indebtedness is denominated in U.S. dollars, a depreciation or appreciation of the Philippine peso against the U.S. dollar as at the end of the most recent fiscal year compared to the end of the previous fiscal year may result in our recognition of significant foreign exchange losses or gains, respectively. For example, the Philippine peso appreciated against the U.S. dollar from Php43.81 as at December 31, 2010 to Php43.92 as at December 31, 2011, as a result of which we recognized in 2011 foreign exchange losses in the amount of Php744 million, representing a decrease of Php2,551 million from Php1,807 million foreign exchange gains recognized in 2010. Moreover, since approximately 30% of our revenues are either denominated in U.S. dollars or linked to the U.S. dollar, a depreciation or appreciation of the weighted average exchange rate of the Philippine peso against the U.S. dollar increases or decreases our revenues in Philippine peso terms and increases or decreases our cash flow from operations, respectively. For example, the appreciation of the Philippine peso relative to the U.S. dollar to a weighted average exchange rate of Php43.31 in 2011 from Php45.12 in 2010 decreased our U.S. dollar and U.S. dollar-linked revenues in Philippine peso terms. Furthermore, fluctuations of the Philippine peso against the U.S. dollar resulted in gains or losses on our derivative financial instruments, which with increasing significance affect our results of operations and financial position. For example, we recognized net gains on derivative financial instruments of Php197 million in 2011 from net losses on derivative financial instruments of Php1,741 million in 2010. See Item 3. “Key Information – Risk Factors – Our result of operations and financial position could be materially and adversely affected if the Philippine peso significantly fluctuates against the U.S. dollar” for further discussion.

On October 26, 2011, we completed the acquisition of the Digitel Group. Our historical consolidated financial statements for the years ended on December 31, 2010 and 2009 do not include financial results of the Digitel Group, and neither pro forma nor historical consolidated financial statements showing our combined results of operations and financial position with Digitel Group, have been prepared or are being provided in this annual report. Our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 include the financial results of the Digitel Group for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011. As a result, this may make it difficult to compare our past results of operations and financial position or to estimate our consolidated performance in the future.

Management’s Financial Review

As discussed in Item 3. “Key Information – Performance Indicators”, we use our adjusted EBITDA and core income to assess our operating performance; a reconciliation of our consolidated adjusted EBITDA and our consolidated core income to our consolidated net income for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 is set forth below.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of our revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the end of each reporting period. The uncertainties inherent in these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the assets or liabilities affected in the future years.

Judgments

In the process of applying the PLDT Group’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgments, apart from those including estimations and assumptions, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in our consolidated financial statements.

Determination of functional currency

The functional currencies of the entities under the PLDT Group are the currency of the primary economic environment in which each entity operates. It is the currency that mainly influences the revenue from and cost of rendering products and services.

The presentation currency of the PLDT Group is the Philippine peso. Based on the economic substance of the underlying circumstances relevant to the PLDT Group, the functional currency of all entities under PLDT Group is the Philippine peso, except for, SMHC, SMI, TSI, FECL Group, PLDT Global and certain of its subsidiaries, PGNL, DCPL, SPi Global and certain of its subsidiaries, and certain subsidiaries of Chikka, which use the U.S. dollar. SHPL, SGP, 3rd Brand, and certain subsidiaries of AGS use the Singapore dollar as functional currency. See discussions in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 4 – Operating Segment Information to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18.

63

##### Table of Contents

As a result of the internal reorganization within PLDT wherein BPO is now an independent operating segment under SPi Global, management undertook a review of the functional currency exposures of SPi Global and certain of its subsidiaries. Based on management’s assessment, SPi Global and SPi CRM’s new currency exposures are now largely U.S. dollars. Based on the aforementioned consideration, which is set forth in IAS 21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, SPi Global and SPi CRM commenced adopting U.S. dollars as its functional currency starting on December 6, 2011.

Leases

As a lessee, we have various lease agreements in respect of our certain equipment and properties. We evaluate whether significant risks and rewards of ownership of the leased properties are transferred to us (finance lease) or retained by the lessor (operating lease) based on IAS 17, Leases. Total lease expense arising from operating leases amounted to Php4,162 million, Php3,970 million and Php4,055 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total finance lease obligations amounted to Php14 million and Php43 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

PLDT’s Acquisition of Digitel

Our acquisition of 51.6% equity interest in Digitel and the mandatory tender offer were accounted for as linked transactions and as a single business combination due to the following: (a) the price per share offered to remaining noncontrolling interest is fixed and the same price as what we offered to acquire the controlling interest of JGS; (b) the remaining noncontrolling shareholders of Digitel did not negotiate to receive the offer; (c) although the offer was initiated by PLDT, it stemmed from a regulatory requirement triggered by the acquisition of controlling interest in Digitel; and (d) the offer period is relatively short period of time.

As the acquisition of 51.6% equity interest and the mandatory tender offer were accounted for as linked transactions, we accounted for the business combination as if we have acquired 100% equity interest at the closing date of the transaction on October 26, 2011. A mandatory tender offer option liability is recognized and treated as part of consideration transferred in addition to the fair value of PLDT common shares issued to JGS. At the end of the tender offer period, the mandatory tender offer option liability is derecognized and corresponding settlement either in shares or in cash is recorded for those who opted for the mandatory tender offer. For the portion of mandatory tender offer option liability that expires unexercised, the mandatory tender offer option liability is derecognized and noncontrolling interest is set-up measured as of the date of acquisition. See Note 13 – Business Combinations – PLDT’s Acquisition of Digitel to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

Estimates and Assumptions

The key estimates and assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities recognized in the consolidated financial statements within the next financial year are discussed below. We based our estimates and assumptions on parameters available when the consolidated financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising beyond the control of PLDT. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.

Asset impairment

IFRS requires that an impairment review be performed when certain impairment indicators are present. In the case of goodwill, at a minimum, such asset is subject to an annual impairment test and more frequently whenever there is an indication that such asset may be impaired. This requires an estimation of the value in use of the CGUs to which the goodwill is allocated. Estimating the value in use requires us to make an estimate of the expected future cash flows from the CGU and to choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows.

Determining the recoverable amount of property, plant and equipment, investments in associates and joint ventures, intangible assets and other noncurrent assets, requires us to make estimates and assumptions in the determination of future cash flows expected to be generated from the continued use and ultimate disposition of such assets. Future events could cause us to conclude that property, plant and equipment, investments in associates and joint ventures, intangible assets and other noncurrent assets associated with an acquired business are impaired. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and financial performance.

The preparation of estimated future cash flows involves significant estimations and assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are appropriate and reasonable, significant changes in our assumptions may materially affect our assessment of recoverable values and may lead to future additional impairment charges under IFRS.

In 2011, we recognized an impairment loss of Php8,457 million for certain network equipment and facilities which no longer efficiently support our network modernization program and have been identified for replacement. The impairment loss recognized represents the net book value of these network equipment and facilities. See Note 9 – Property, Plant and Equipment to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

Total asset impairment on noncurrent assets amounted to Php8,517 million, Php1,496 million and Php2,337 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. See Note 4 – Operating Segment Information, Note 5 – Income and Expenses and Note 9 – Property, Plant and Equipment to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

The provisional goodwill from the acquisition of Laserwords Private Ltd., or Laserwords, ePDS and Digitel of Php849 million, Php26 million, and Php68,340 million, respectively, were not tested for impairment since there were no indicators of impairment identified. See Note 13 – Business Combinations to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

The carrying values of our property, plant and equipment, investments in associates and joint ventures, goodwill and intangible assets, and prepayments are separately disclosed in Notes 9, 10, 14 and 18 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18, respectively, for further discussion.

Estimating useful lives of property, plant and equipment

We estimate the useful lives of our property, plant and equipment based on the periods over which our assets are expected to be available for use. Our estimate of the useful lives of our property, plant and equipment is based on our collective assessment of industry practice, internal technical evaluation and experience with similar assets. The estimated useful lives of our property, plant and equipment are reviewed every year-end and are updated if expectations differ from previous estimates due to physical wear and tear, technical or commercial obsolescence and legal or other limitations on the use of our assets. It is possible, however, that future results of operations could be materially affected by changes in our estimates brought about by changes in the factors mentioned above. The amounts and timing of recorded expenses for any period would be affected by changes in these factors and circumstances. A reduction in the estimated useful lives of our property, plant and equipment would increase our recorded depreciation and amortization and decrease our property, plant and equipment.

The total depreciation and amortization of property, plant and equipment amounted to Php27,957 million, Php26,277 million and Php25,607 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total carrying values of property, plant and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, amounted to Php197,731 million and Php163,184 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 4 – Operating Segment Information and Note 9 – Property, Plant and Equipment to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

Determining the fair value of investment properties

We have adopted the fair value approach in determining the carrying value of our investment properties. We opted to rely on independent appraisers in determining the fair values of our investment properties, and such fair values were determined based on recent prices of similar properties, with adjustments to reflect any changes in economic conditions since the date of those transactions. The amounts and timing of recorded changes in fair value for any period would differ if we made different judgments and estimates or utilized a different basis for determining fair value. Appraisal of investment properties is performed every December 31.

Net gains from fair value adjustments charged to profit or loss amounted to Php26 million, Php6 million and Php352 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total carrying values of our investment properties amounted to Php1,115 million and Php1,560 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 12 – Investment Properties to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

Goodwill and intangible assets

Our consolidated financial statements and financial performance reflect acquired businesses after the completion of the respective acquisition. We account for the acquired businesses using the acquisition method, which require extensive use of accounting judgments and estimates to allocate the purchase price to the fair market values of the acquiree’s identifiable assets and liabilities and contingent liabilities, if any, at the acquisition date. Thus, the numerous judgments made in estimating the fair market value to be assigned to the acquiree’s assets and liabilities can materially affect our financial performance.

Intangible assets acquired from business combination with finite lives are amortized over the expected useful life using the straight-line method of accounting. At a minimum, the amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at each financial year-end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are accounted for by changing the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognized in our consolidated income statement.

The total amortization of intangible assets amounted to Php264 million, Php388 million and Php368 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total carrying values of goodwill and intangible assets amounted to Php80,656 million and Php11,485 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 14 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

Recognition of deferred income tax assets and liabilities

We review the carrying amounts of deferred income tax assets at the end of each reporting period and reduce these to the extent that these are no longer probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax assets to be utilized. Our assessment on the recognition of deferred income tax assets on deductible temporary differences is based on the level and timing of forecasted taxable income of the subsequent reporting periods. This forecast is based on our past results and future expectations on revenues and expenses as well as future tax planning strategies. However, there is no assurance that we will generate sufficient taxable income to allow all or part of our deferred income tax assets to be utilized. We also review the level of projected gross margin for the use of Optional Standard Deduction, or OSD method, and assess the future tax consequences for the recognition of deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities. Based on Smart’s and Wolfpac’s projected gross margin, they expect to continue using the OSD method in the foreseeable future.

Based on the above assessment, our consolidated unrecognized deferred income tax assets amounted to Php16,098 million and Php1,477 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In addition, our unrecognized net deferred income tax assets for items which would not result in future tax benefits when using the OSD method amounted to Php4,240 million and Php2,803 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Total consolidated benefit from deferred income tax amounted to Php1,261 for the year ended December 31, 2011 and total consolidated provision for deferred income tax amounted to Php1,198 million and Php656 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total consolidated net deferred income tax assets amounted

to Php5,975 million and Php6,110 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, while total consolidated net deferred income tax liabilities amounted to Php2,902 million and Php1,099 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 4 – Operating Segment Information and Note 7 – Income Taxes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

Estimating allowance for doubtful accounts

If we assessed that there is an objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred in our trade and other receivables, we estimate the allowance for doubtful accounts related to our trade and other receivables that are specifically identified as doubtful of collection. The amount of allowance is evaluated by management on the basis of factors that affect the collectibility of the accounts. In these cases, we use judgment based on the best available facts and circumstances, including, but not limited to, the length of our relationship with the customer and the customer’s credit status based on third party credit reports and known market factors, to record specific reserves for customers against amounts due in order to reduce our receivables to amounts that we expect to collect. These specific reserves are re-evaluated and adjusted as additional information received affect the amounts estimated.

In addition to specific allowance against individually significant receivables, we also assess a collective impairment allowance against credit exposures of our customer which were grouped based on common credit characteristic, which, although not specifically identified as requiring a specific allowance, have a greater risk of default than when the receivables were originally granted to customers. This collective allowance is based on historical loss experience using various factors, such as historical performance of the customers within the collective group, deterioration in the markets in which the customers operate, and identified structural weaknesses or deterioration in the cash flows of customers.

Total provision for doubtful accounts for trade and other receivables recognized in our consolidated income statements amounted to Php1,549 million, Php834 million and Php2,335 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Trade and other receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, amounted to Php16,245 million and Php16,428 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 4 – Operating Segment Information, Note 5 – Income and Expenses, Note 16 – Trade and Other Receivables and Note 27 – Financial Assets and Liabilities to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

Estimating net realizable value of inventories and supplies

We write-down the cost of inventories whenever the net realizable value of inventories becomes lower than cost due to damage, physical deterioration, obsolescence, change in price levels or other causes. The lower of cost and net realizable value of inventories is reviewed on a periodic basis. Inventory items identified to be obsolete or unusable are written-off and charged as expense in our consolidated income statement.

Total write-down of inventories and supplies amounted to Php143 million, Php108 million and Php389 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The carrying values of inventories and supplies amounted to Php3,827 million and Php2,219 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 4 – Operating Segment Information, Note 5 – Income and Expenses and Note 17 – Inventories and Supplies to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

Share-based payment transactions

Our 2007 to 2009 LTIP grants Share Appreciation Rights, or SARs, to our eligible key executives and advisors. Under the 2007 to 2009 LTIP, we recognize the services we receive from the eligible key executives and advisors, and our liability to pay for those services, as the eligible key executives and advisors render services during the vesting period. We measure our liability, initially and at each reporting date until settled, at the fair value of the SARs, by applying an option valuation model, taking into account the terms and conditions on which the SARs were granted, and the extent to which the eligible key executives and advisors have rendered service to date. We recognize any changes in fair value at each reporting date until settled in our consolidated income statement. The estimates and assumptions are described in Note 25 – Share-based Payments and Employee Benefits to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 and include, among other things, annual stock volatility, risk-free interest rate, dividends yield, the remaining life of options, and the fair value of common stock. While management believes that the estimates and assumptions used are reasonable and appropriate, significant differences in our actual experience or significant changes in the estimates and assumptions may materially affect the stock compensation

costs charged to operations. The fair value of the 2007 to 2009 LTIP recognized as expense for the year ended December 31, 2009 amounted to Php1,833 million. As at December 31, 2009, outstanding 2007 to 2009 LTIP liability amounted to Php4,582 million, which was paid in full in April 2010. See Note 5 – Income and Expenses to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

Estimation of pension benefit costs and other employee benefits

The cost of defined benefit plans and present value of the pension obligation are determined using projected unit credit method. Actuarial valuation includes making various assumptions which consists, among other things, discount rates, expected rates of return on plan assets, rates of compensation increases and mortality rates. See Note 25 – Share-based Payments and Employee Benefits to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion. Actual results that differ from our assumptions are recognized as income or expense when the net cumulative unrecognized actuarial gains and losses at the end of the previous reporting period exceed 10% of the higher of the present value of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets at that date. These excess actuarial gains and losses are recognized over the expected average remaining working lives of the employees participating in the plan. Due to complexity of valuation, the underlying assumptions and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable and appropriate, significant differences in our actual experience or significant changes in our assumptions may materially affect our cost for pension and other retirement obligations. All assumptions are reviewed every year-end.

Total consolidated pension benefit income amounted to Php38 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and total consolidated pension benefit costs amounted to Php236 million and Php1,306 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Unrecognized net actuarial gains amounted to Php2,886 million and Php479 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The prepaid benefit costs amounted to Php5,654 million and Php5,333 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The accrued benefit costs amounted to Php496 million and Php415 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 5 – Income and Expenses, Note 18 – Prepayments and Note 25 – Share-based Payments and Employee Benefits to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

The 2010 to 2012 LTIP, has been presented to and approved by the Executive Compensation Committee, or ECC, and the Board of Directors, and is based on profit targets for the covered Performance Cycle. The cost of 2010 to 2012 LTIP is determined using the projected unit credit method based on prevailing discount rates and profit targets. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable and appropriate, significant differences in our actual experience or significant changes in our assumptions may materially affect our cost for other employee benefits. All assumptions are reviewed on a monthly basis. Total outstanding liability and fair value of 2010 to 2012 LTIP cost as at and for the year ended December 31, 2010 amounted to Php1,392 million. Based on our latest projection, the profit targets for the covered Performance Cycle is no longer achievable, thus, accrued LTIP cost as at December 31, 2010 was reversed and presented as part of other income in our consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2011. See Note 5 – Income and Expenses and Note 25 – Share-based Payments and Employee Benefits to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

Provision for asset retirement obligations

Provision for asset retirement obligations are recognized in the period in which they are incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. This requires an estimation of the cost to restore/dismantle on a per square meter basis, depending on the location, and is based on the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation at the future restoration/dismantlement date, discounted using a pre-tax rate that reflects the current market assessment of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risk specific to the liability. Total provision for asset retirement obligations amounted to Php2,107 million and Php1,344 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 21 – Deferred Credits and Other Noncurrent Liabilities to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

Provision for legal contingencies and tax assessments

We are currently involved in various legal proceedings and tax assessments. Our estimate of the probable costs for the resolution of these claims have been developed in consultation with our counsel handling the defense in these matters and is based upon our analysis of potential results. We currently do not believe these proceedings could be materially affected by changes in our estimates or effectiveness of our strategies relating to these proceedings and assessments. See Note 26 – Provisions and Contingencies to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

Revenue recognition

Our revenue recognition policies require us to make use of estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of our revenues and receivables.

Our agreements with domestic and foreign carriers for inbound and outbound traffic subject to settlements require traffic reconciliations before actual settlement is done, which may not be the actual volume of traffic as measured by us. Initial recognition of revenues is based on our observed traffic adjusted by our normal experience adjustments, which historically are not material to our consolidated financial statements. Differences between the amounts initially recognized and the actual settlements are taken up in the accounts upon reconciliation. However, we cannot assure you that the use of such estimates will not result in material adjustments in future periods.

Revenues under a multiple element arrangement specifically applicable to our fixed line and wireless businesses are split into separately identifiable components based on their relative fair value to reflect the substance of the transaction. Where fair value is not directly observable, the total consideration is allocated using an appropriate allocation method.

Under certain arrangements with our knowledge processing solutions services, if there is uncertainty regarding the outcome of the transaction for which service was rendered, revenue is recognized only to the extent of expenses incurred for rendering the service and only to such amount is determined to be recoverable.

We recognize our revenues from installation and activation related fees and the corresponding costs over the expected average periods of customer relationship for fixed line and cellular services. We estimate the expected average period of customer relationship based on our most recent churn rate analysis.

Determination of fair values of financial assets and liabilities

Where the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position cannot be derived from active markets, they are determined using valuation techniques including the discounted cash flows model. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgment is required in establishing fair values. The judgments include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value of financial instruments.

Total fair values of financial assets and liabilities amounted to Php72,002 million and Php216,443 million, respectively, as at December 31, 2011, while the total fair values of financial assets and liabilities amounted to Php55,538 million and Php167,396 million, respectively, as at December 31, 2010. See Note 27 – Financial Assets and Liabilities to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

2011 Compared to 2010

On a Consolidated Basis

We reported consolidated revenues of Php156,603 million in 2011, which includes revenue contribution from the Digitel Group of Php3,845 million for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011, a decrease of Php1,784 million, or 1%, as compared with Php158,387 million in 2010, primarily due to a decline in our service revenues by Php2,212 million as a result of decreases in cellular and satellite revenues from our wireless business, and national long distance and local exchange services from our fixed line business. These were partially offset by higher revenues from data and other network services, as well as the higher revenue contribution of our BPO business.

The following table shows the breakdown of our consolidated revenues by business segment for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010:

Consolidated expenses increased by Php10,551 million, or 10%, to Php113,382 million in 2011, which includes expenses from the Digitel Group of Php3,785 million for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011, from Php102,831 million in 2010, largely as a result of higher asset impairment, selling and promotions, depreciation and amortization, taxes and licenses, repairs and maintenance, professional and other contracted services, and cost of sales, partly offset by decreases in compensation and employee benefits, and amortization of intangible assets.

Consolidated other expenses in 2011 amounted to Php544 million, which includes other expenses from the Digitel Group of Php942 million for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011, a decrease of Php1,327 million, or 71%, from Php1,871 million in 2010, primarily due to the combined effects of the following: (i) net gains on derivative financial instruments of Php197 million in 2011 as against net losses on derivative financial instruments of Php1,741 million in 2010 mainly due to the effect of wider U.S. dollar and peso interest rate differentials and depreciation of the Philippine peso to the U.S. dollar, and a decrease in hedge costs mainly due to the offsetting effect

of overlay transactions in 2011; (ii) an increase in other income by Php934 million mainly due to the reversal of prior year’s accrual of long-term incentive plan, or LTIP, pension benefit income recognized by PLDT and net gain on sale of investments in Level Up! and Digital Paradise, partly offset by lower net gain on disposal of fixed assets of Php742 million in 2011; (iii) net increase in equity share in net earnings of associates and joint ventures by Php627 million; (iv) a decrease in net financing costs by Php207 million mainly due to lower interest on loans and other related items on account of lower average interest rates and, partially offset by higher average level of loan balances by our fixed line and wireless businesses and lower capitalized interest by our wireless business; (v) higher interest income by Php172 million due to a higher average level of peso and dollar short-term investments, higher average peso and dollar interest rates and the impact of the depreciation of the Philippine peso on dollar placements; and (vi) net foreign exchange losses of Php744 million in 2011 as against net foreign exchange gains of Php1,807 million in 2010 due to the revaluation of foreign-currency denominated assets and liabilities as a result of the effect of the depreciation of the Philippine peso to the U.S. dollar.

a decrease of Php3,758 million, or 4%, as compared with Php83,717 million in 2010, primarily due to a decline in service revenues from our wireless business, and higher operating expenses driven primarily by higher selling and promotions expenses, taxes and licenses, repairs and maintenance, and professional and other contracted services, and higher provision for uncollectible receivables.

Service Revenues

Our wireless service revenues decreased by Php1,955 million, or 2%, to Php102,069 million in 2011, which includes service revenues from DMPI of Php3,098 million for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011, as compared with Php104,024 million in 2010, mainly as a result of lower revenues from our cellular, and satellite and other services. The decrease in our cellular revenues was mainly due to the decline in revenues from domestic and international calls, as well as from domestic text messaging services as a result of pervasive multiple SIM card ownership, increased utilization of unlimited offers and increasing patronage of social networking sites, partially offset by an increase in international short messaging service, or SMS, as well as higher VAS revenues, mainly from internet-based VAS and Pasa Load. Our dollar-linked revenues were negatively affected by the appreciation of the Philippine peso relative to the U.S. dollar, which decreased to a weighted average exchange rate of Php43.31 for the year ended December 31, 2011 from Php45.12 for the year ended December 31, 2010. With subscriber growth being driven more by multiple SIM card ownership, especially in the lower income segment of the Philippine wireless market, monthly cellular average revenue per unit/s, or ARPUs, for 2011 were lower as compared with 2010. We expect the decreasing trend in our cellular revenues, particularly our revenues from traditional voice and text messaging services, to continue due to the popularity of unlimited offers, multiple SIM card ownership and the emerging popularity of social media services. As a percentage of our total wireless revenues, service revenues amounted to 99% in each of 2011 and 2010.

Cellular Service

Our cellular service revenues in 2011 amounted to Php93,645 million, which includes revenues from DMPI for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011 of Php2,808 million, a decrease of Php1,875 million, or 2%, from Php95,520 million in 2010. Cellular service revenues accounted for 92% of our wireless service revenues in 2011 and 2010.

Domestic voice service revenues decreased by Php605 million, or 2%, to Php27,405 million in 2011 from Php28,010 million in 2010, primarily due to a decrease in domestic outbound call revenues by Php365 million, or 2%, to Php22,442 million in 2011 from Php22,807 million in 2010 mainly due to higher traffic volumes of unlimited calls at lower yield. In addition, revenues from our domestic inbound voice service decreased by Php240 million, or 5%, to Php4,963 million in 2011 from Php5,203 million in 2010 as a result of a decrease in inbound call traffic from domestic fixed line and mobile carriers. Domestic outbound call volumes increased by 14,466 million minutes, or 65%, to 36,816 million minutes in 2011 from 22,350 million minutes in 2010, while domestic inbound call volumes decreased by 87 million minutes, or 6%, to 1,350 million minutes in 2011 from 1,437 million minutes in 2010. The overall increase in domestic call traffic was due to higher call volumes resulting from unlimited voice offerings and the inclusion of Digitel’s call traffic for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011.

##### Table of Contents

decline in international voice service revenues was primarily due to a reduction in inbound termination rates, as well as the effect on our dollar-linked revenues of the appreciation of the Philippine peso relative to the U.S. dollar to a weighted average exchange rate of Php43.31 for the year ended December 31, 2011 from Php45.12 for the year ended December 31, 2010, partially offset by the inclusion of Digitel’s revenues for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011. Conversely, international inbound and outbound calls totaled 3,085 million minutes in 2011, an increase of 59 million minutes, or 2%, from 3,026 million minutes in 2010 mainly due to an increase in our cellular subscriber base.

Text messaging-related services contributed revenues of Php43,708 million in 2011, a decrease of Php896 million, or 2%, as compared with Php44,604 million in 2010, and accounted for 92% and 94% of our total cellular data service revenues in 2011 and 2010, respectively. The decrease in revenues from text messaging-related services resulted mainly from declining SMS yields. Another factor that contributed to this decline in revenues is the availability of alternative means of communication through social media sites. Text messaging revenues from the various bucket-priced/unlimited plans totaled Php23,164 million in 2011, a decrease of Php672 million, or 3%, as compared with Php23,836 million in 2010, primarily as a result of lower yields. Standard text messaging revenues decreased by Php302 million, or 2%, to Php16,932 million in 2011 from Php17,234 million in 2010, primarily as a result of decreased usage. On the other hand, the increase in international text messaging revenues was mainly due to the growth in international inbound SMS traffic and a higher average yield per international inbound SMS.

DMPI’s text messaging-related revenues contributed Php1,120 million and accounted for 92% of DMPI’s cellular data service revenues for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011. Standard text messaging revenues amounted to Php405 million, while text messaging revenues from domestic bucket-priced/unlimited plans contributed Php678 million.

Bucket-priced/unlimited text messages usage increased by 9,954 million, or 3%, to 322,588 million in 2011 from 312,634 million in 2010 mainly due to DMPI’s contribution of 8,235 million bucket-priced/unlimited text messages for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011. On the other hand, standard text messages usage declined by 526 million, or 3%, to 17,793 million in 2011 from 18,319 million in 2010. The decline was partly offset by DMPI’s contribution of 367 million standard text messages for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011.

VAS contributed revenues of Php3,481 million in 2011, an increase of Php888 million, or 34%, as compared with Php2,593 million in 2010, primarily due to an increase in revenues from internet-based VAS, which increased by Php849 million, or 99%, to Php1,707 million in 2011 from Php858 million in 2010, and Pasa Load/Give-a-load by Php181 million, or 37%, to Php664 million in 2011 from Php483 million in 2010.

Of VAS revenues, DMPI’s VAS revenues amounted to Php100 million and accounted for 8% of DMPI’s cellular data service revenues for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011, primarily due to revenue contributions of Php67 million and Php31 million of DMPI’s internet-based and SMS-based VAS, respectively.

The average monthly churn rate for Smart’s postpaid subscribers were 2.1% and 2.4% for 2011 and 2010, respectively. Smart’s policy is to redirect outgoing calls to an interactive voice response system if the postpaid subscriber’s account is either 45 days overdue or if the subscriber has exceeded the prescribed credit limit. If the subscriber does not make a payment within 44 days of redirection, the account is temporarily disconnected. If the account is not settled within 30 days from temporary disconnection, the account is then considered as churned. From the time that temporary disconnection is initiated, a series of collection activities is implemented, involving the sending of a collection letter, call-out reminders and collection messages via text messaging.

Prepaid blended gross average monthly ARPU in 2011 was Php162, a decrease of 11%, as compared with Php183 in 2010. The decrease was primarily due to a decline in the average domestic outbound call and text messaging revenue per subscriber, as well as a drop in the average international inbound voice revenue per subscriber in 2011 as compared with 2010. On a net basis, prepaid blended average monthly ARPU in 2011 was Php142, a decrease of 12%, as compared with Php161 in 2010.

Wireless Broadband, Satellite and Other Services

Our revenues from wireless broadband, satellite and other services consist mainly of wireless broadband service revenues from SBI, charges for ACeS Philippines’ satellite information and messaging services and service revenues generated by the mobile virtual network operations of PLDT Global’s subsidiary.

Wireless Broadband

Revenues from our wireless broadband services increased by Php517 million, or 8%, to Php6,804 million in 2011 from Php6,287 million in 2010, primarily due to the 53% growth in broadband subscriber base and as a result of the inclusion of DMPI’s revenues for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011 of Php290 million, partially offset by a decline in ARPU.

SBI and Sun Broadband Wireless, DMPI’s broadband service, offer a number of wireless broadband services and had a total of 2,068,409 subscribers as at December 31, 2011, an increase of 712,432 subscribers, or 53%, as compared with 1,355,977 subscribers as at December 31, 2010, primarily due to the inclusion of DMPI’s prepaid and postpaid broadband subscribers of 200,972 and 251,084, respectively, as at December 31, 2011. Our postpaid wireless broadband subscriber base increased by 274,660 subscribers, or 64%, to 705,417 subscribers as at December 31, 2011 from 430,757 subscribers as at December 31, 2010, while our prepaid wireless broadband subscriber base increased by 437,772 subscribers, or 47%, to 1,362,992 subscribers as at December 31, 2011 from 925,220 subscribers as at December 31, 2010.

Smart Bro, SBI’s wireless broadband service linked to Smart’s wireless broadband-enabled base stations, allows subscribers to connect to the internet using an outdoor aerial antenna installed in a subscriber’s home.

SBI offers mobile internet access through Smart Bro Plug-It, a wireless modem and Smart Bro Pocket Wifi, a portable wireless router which can be shared by up to five users at a time. Both provide instant connectivity in places where there is Smart network coverage. Smart Bro Plug-It and Smart Bro Pocket Wifi are available in both postpaid and prepaid variants, with prepaid offering 30-minute internet access for every Php10 worth of load. SBI also offers unlimited internet surfing with Unli Surf200, Unli Surf100 and Unli Surf50 for Smart Bro Plug-It and Pocket Wifi Prepaid subscribers with specific internet usage needs. We also have an additional array of load packages that offer per minute-based charging and longer validity periods.

DMPI’s Sun Broadband Wireless service offers internet users an affordable high-speed broadband wireless service utilizing advanced 3.5G HSPA technology on an all-IP network. Sun Broadband Wireless has plans and offerings ranging from Php350 to Php1,495 with speeds of up to 2 Mbps.

Smart Bro WiMAX service is available in Metro Manila and selected key cities in Visayas and Mindanao. WiMAX, which stands for Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access, is a wide area network technology that allows for a more efficient radio-band usage, improved interference avoidance and higher data rates over a longer distance. WiMAX unlimited broadband usage is available under Plan 799 and Plan 999 with burst speeds of 512 kbps up to 1 Mbps, respectively.

Satellite and Other Services

Revenues from our satellite and other services decreased by Php597 million, or 27%, to Php1,620 million in 2011 from Php2,217 million in 2010, primarily due to the sale of Mabuhay Satellite’s transponders on July 1, 2010 and the effect of the appreciation of the Philippine peso relative to the U.S. dollar to a weighted average exchange rate of Php43.31 for the year ended December 31, 2011 from Php45.12 for the year ended December 31, 2010 on our U.S. dollar and U.S. dollar-linked satellite and other service revenues.

Non-Service Revenues

Our wireless non-service revenues consist of proceeds from sales of cellular handsets, cellular SIM-packs and broadband data modems. Our wireless non-service revenues increased by Php112 million, or 8%, to Php1,469 million in 2011 as compared with Php1,357 million in 2010, primarily due to the effect of the inclusion of DMPI’s non-service revenues of Php86 million for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011, as well as the increase in cellular handset/SIM-pack activations, partially offset by a lower quantity of broadband data modems sold.

Expenses

Expenses associated with our wireless business in 2011, which includes DMPI’s expenses of Php3,083 million, amounted to Php71,049 million, an increase of Php11,242 million, or 19%, from Php59,807 million in 2010. A significant portion of this increase was attributable to higher expenses related to asset impairment, as well as higher selling and promotions, depreciation and amortization, cost of sales, repairs and maintenance, and taxes and licenses, partially offset by lower expenses related to compensation and employee benefits, rent and interconnection costs. As a percentage of our total wireless revenues, expenses associated with our wireless business accounted for 69% and 57% in 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The following table summarizes the breakdown of our total wireless-related expenses for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the percentage of each expense item in relation to the total:

Depreciation and amortization charges increased by Php1,052 million, or 8%, to Php14,295 million on account of higher depreciation charges on cellular network facilities, business and operations support systems and the inclusion of DMPI’s depreciation and amortization expenses for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011.

Interconnection costs decreased by Php590 million, or 6%, to Php9,604 million primarily due to an increase in inter-operator rebates and a decrease in interconnection charges for domestic and international calls and roaming SMS, partially offset by the inclusion of DMPI’s interconnection costs for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011.

Asset impairment increased by Php8,373 million to Php9,197 million primarily due to impairment charges on certain network equipment and facilities covered by the network modernization program undertaken by Smart and higher provision for inventory obsolescence, partly offset by lower provision for uncollectible receivables.

Rent expenses decreased by Php787 million, or 9%, to Php8,251 million primarily due to lower domestic fiber optic network, or DFON, charges as a result of lower rental rates and a decrease in satellite and building rental, partially offset by the increase in cell site, leased line and pole charges and the inclusion of DMPI’s rent expenses for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011. In 2011, we had 10,482 cell sites, 14,879 cellular/mobile broadband base stations and 4,918 fixed wireless broadband-enabled base stations, which includes DMPI’s 4,414 cell sites, 4,376 cellular/mobile broadband base stations and 2,132 fixed wireless broadband-enabled base stations, as compared with 6,037 cell sites, 10,316 cellular/mobile broadband base stations and 2,519 fixed wireless broadband-enabled base stations in 2010.

Selling and promotion expenses increased by Php2,335 million, or 61%, to Php6,144 million primarily due to the inclusion of DMPI’s selling and promotions expense for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011 and higher spending on advertising and promotional campaigns, commissions and public relations expenses.

Repairs and maintenance expenses increased by Php585 million, or 12%, to Php5,643 million mainly due to the inclusion of DMPI’s repairs and maintenance expense for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011, higher electricity and fuel costs for power generation, as well as higher expenses related to computer hardware and other work equipment, partly offset by lower maintenance charges for cellular and broadband network facilities, and computer software.

Compensation and employee benefits expenses decreased by Php1,137 million, or 18%, to Php5,248 million primarily due to lower LTIP, salaries and employee benefits, and lower MRP costs, partially offset by the inclusion of DMPI’s compensation and employee benefit expenses for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011 and higher provision for pension benefits. Employee headcount increased to 8,043 as at December 31, 2011 as compared with 5,165 as at December 31, 2010, primarily due to the inclusion of DMPI’s headcount of 2,782 as at December 31, 2011.

##### Table of Contents

Cost of sales increased by Php680 million, or 19%, to Php4,267 million primarily due to the inclusion of DMPI’s cost of sales for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011 and higher cellular activation and broadband retention cost, partly offset by lower quantity and average cost of broadband modems sold.

Professional and other contracted service fees increased by Php72 million, or 2%, to Php3,176 million primarily due to the increase in consultancy, contracted service, outsourced service, and market research fees, and the inclusion of DMPI’s professional and other contracted service fees for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011, partly offset by lower management, customer relationship management service, technical and legal services, and other professional service fees.

Taxes and licenses increased by Php552 million, or 33%, to Php2,233 million primarily due to higher business-related taxes and the inclusion of DMPI’s taxes and licenses for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011.

Communication, training and travel expenses increased by Php76 million, or 8%, to Php1,022 million primarily due to higher courier charges, travel expenses, fuel consumption for vehicles, and the inclusion of DMPI’s communication, training and travel expenses for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011 partially offset by lower communication, training, and freight and hauling expenses.

Insurance and security services increased by Php16 million, or 2%, to Php847 million primarily due to higher site security expense, and the inclusion of DMPI’s insurance and security expenses for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011, partially offset by lower insurance premiums.

Amortization of intangible assets decreased by Php26 million, or 19%, to Php108 million primarily due to the amortization of intangible assets relating to the acquisition of Chikka in 2010.

Other expenses increased by Php41 million, or 4%, to Php1,014 million primarily due to higher various business and operational-related expenses and the inclusion of DMPI’s other operational expenses for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011.

Our wireless business’ other expenses amounted to Php1,694 million in 2011, which includes other expenses from DMPI amounting to Php764 million for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011, an increase of Php1,558 million from Php136 million in 2010, primarily due to the combined effects of the following: (i) net foreign exchange losses of Php720 million in 2011 as against net foreign exchange gains of Php888 million in 2010 on account of revaluation of foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities due to the inclusion of losses on revaluation of dollar-denominated net liabilities of DMPI for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011, and lower level of appreciation of the Philippine peso to the U.S. dollar; (ii) increase in equity share in net losses of associates by Php108 million; (iii) higher net financing costs by Php63 million primarily due to higher accretion on financial liabilities and financing charges, and a decrease in capitalized interest, partly offset by lower interest on loans and other related items on account of Smart’s lower average level of loan balances, and lower average interest and foreign exchange rates; (iv) an increase in interest income by Php126 million mainly due to a higher average level of peso and dollar short-term investments and a higher average interest rate in 2011; and (v) an increase in other income by Php108 million mainly due to reversal of prior year’s accrual of LTIP, partially offset by lower rental and consultancy income, and lower gains on disposal of fixed assets and insurance claims.

Our revenues from inbound international long distance service increased by Php366 million, or 4%, to Php10,217 million in 2011 from Php9,851 million in 2010 due to an increase in inbound call volumes and increase in the average settlement rate, as well as the inclusion of Digitel’s inbound international long distance service revenues of Php234 million for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011, partially offset by the unfavorable effect on our inbound revenues of the appreciation of the weighted average exchange rate of the Philippine peso to the U.S. dollar.

Our revenues from outbound international long distance service decreased by Php235 million, or 19%, to Php1,026 million in 2011 from Php1,261 million in 2010, primarily due to the decline in outbound call volumes, the unfavorable effect of the appreciation of the weighted average exchange rate of the Philippine peso to the U.S. dollar to Php43.31 for the year ended December 31, 2011 from Php45.12 for the year ended December 31, 2010, resulting in a decrease in the average billing rates to Php43.34 in 2011 from Php45.31 in 2010 and decrease in average collection rate in dollar terms.

Leased lines and other data revenues amounted to Php6,707 million in 2011, a decrease of Php428 million, or 6%, from Php7,135 million in 2010, primarily due to a decrease in Diginet revenues, partially offset by the inclusion of Digitel’s leased line data revenues of Php83 million for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011, and higher revenues from IP-VPN and SWUP.

These service revenues decreased by Php583 million, or 17%, to Php2,816 million in 2011 from Php3,399 million in 2010 mainly due to a decrease in internet and online gaming revenues as a result of the disposal of investments in Digital Paradise and Level Up!, as well as lower rental and facilities management fees, and directory advertising, partially offset by the effect of the inclusion in the consolidation of the financial results of ePDS (ePLDT increased its equity interest in ePDS from 50% to 67% effective August 24, 2011), and the revenue contribution of PGNL, the exclusive distributor and licensee of the programs, shows, films and channels of TV5 abroad, and distributes these media content via syndication and via its international linear channels.

Non-service Revenues

Non-service revenues increased by Php188 million, or 18%, to Php1,221 million in 2011 from Php1,033 million in 2010, primarily due to the sale of several managed PABX and OnCall solution in 2011, no similar transactions were recognized in 2010, as well as higher computer-bundled sales, partially offset by lower sale of PLP units and SIM cards.

Expenses

Expenses related to our fixed line business totaled Php50,620 million in 2011, which includes expenses from Digitel amounting to Php726 million for the period from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011, an increase of Php377 million, or 1%, as compared with Php50,243 million in 2010.

(2) | Includes salaries and employee benefits, LTIP, pension and MRP costs.

Compensation and employee benefits increased by Php140 million, or 3%, to Php5,062 million mainly due to higher salaries and benefits, partially offset by a decline in MRP costs and provision for pension costs. BPO employee headcount increased by 631, or 4%, to 14,664 in 2011 as compared with 14,033 in 2010.

Professional and other contracted services increased by Php111 million, or 26%, to Php538 million primarily due to higher contracted service and consultancy fees, as well as professional fees for services rendered on the sale of the medical transcription business and the purchase of Laserwords.

Rent expenses decreased by Php22 million, or 5%, to Php423 million primarily due to lower office building and domestic leased circuit rental charges.

Depreciation and amortization increased by Php22 million, or 6%, to Php418 million primarily due to CRM’s purchase in 2011 of PBX Avaya 6.2 upgrade, IP phones and various computers and peripherals.

Repairs and maintenance expenses decreased by Php25 million, or 6%, to Php379 million primarily due to decrease in repairs and maintenance costs of site facilities and buildings particularly from our customer relationship management business, as well as a decrease in site electricity charges, partially offset by higher IT software and hardware repairs and maintenance costs.

Insurance and security service expenses decreased by Php1 million, or 2%, to Php58 million primarily due to lower expenses on security services, partially offset by higher insurance and bond premiums.

Taxes and licenses decreased by Php20 million, or 32% to Php43 million due to lower business-related taxes in 2011.

Asset impairment decreased by Php1,009 million, or 99%, to Php9 million primarily due to customer relationship management’s and knowledge processing solutions’ asset impairment of unutilized business tax benefits in 2010.

(1) | The 2010 results have been restated to reflect the implementation of the reorganization of our business segments, as discussed in Item 4. “Information on the Company — Development Activities (2009-2011) — Business Reorganization”.

Our BPO business’ other income amounted to Php112 million in 2011, an increase of Php69 million, or 160%, from Php43 million in 2010, primarily due to the combined effects of the following: (i) a decrease in financing costs by Php131 million due to lower accretion on contingent liabilities from our knowledge processing solutions business; (ii) decrease in net foreign exchange losses by Php34 million due to the revaluation of net foreign currency-denominated assets as a result of the effect of the appreciation of the Philippine peso to the U.S. dollar in 2011; (iii) net losses on derivative financial instruments of Php4 million in 2011 due to mark-to-market loss from forward foreign exchange contracts; (iv) a decrease in interest income by Php5 million due to lower interest earned; and (v) a decrease in other income by Php87 million mainly due to lower de-recognition of liabilities, partially offset by a gain on sale of SPi’s medical transcription business.

Provision for (Benefit from) Income Tax

Provision for income tax amounted to Php118 million in 2011 as against a benefit from income tax of Php64 million in 2010, primarily due to higher taxable income in 2011, expiration of income tax holiday of a subsidiary of SPi and the inclusion of provision for income tax of Laserwords Private Ltd. for the period from November 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011.

Net Income

As a result of the foregoing, our BPO business registered a net income of Php984 million, an increase of Php1,246 million, or 476%, in 2011 as against a net loss of Php262 million in 2010.

Core Income

Our BPO business’ core income amounted to Php906 million in 2011, an increase of Php141 million, or 18%, as compared with Php765 million in 2010 mainly as a result of increases in BPO revenues and other income, partially offset by an increase in BPO-related expenses and provision for income tax.

Others

Expenses

Expenses associated with our other business totaled Php11 million in 2011, a decrease of Php8 million, or 42%, as compared with Php19 million in 2010, primarily due to PCEV’s lower expenses related to communication, as well as professional and other contracted services.

Other Income

The following table summarizes the breakdown of other income for other services for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010:

(1) | The 2010 results have been restated to reflect the implementation of the reorganization of our business segments, as discussed in Item 4. “Information on the Company — Development Activities (2009-2011) — Business Reorganization”.

Other income increased by Php627 million, or 46%, to Php1,998 million in 2011 from Php1,371 million in 2010 primarily due to the combined effects of the following: (i) an increase in equity share in net earnings of associates by Php614 million mainly due to the increase in PCEV’s direct and indirect share in the net earnings of Meralco, partly offset by PCEV’s share in expenses of Beacon and fair value adjustment related to the acquisition of Meralco; (ii) an increase in other income by Php45 million; (iii) net losses on foreign exchange revaluation in 2010 of Php23 million by our PCEV business; and (iv) a decrease in interest income by Php57 million as a result of lower average level of investments by our PCEV business.

For the year ended December 31, 2011, Meralco’s reported net income and core income amounted to Php13,227 million and Php14,887 million, respectively, as compared with Php9,685 million and Php12,155 million, respectively, in 2010. These results were due primarily to an increase in billed customers as compared with 2010 and the implementation of the distribution rate adjustments approved by the Energy Regulatory Commission for 2011. PCEV’s share in the reported and core income of Meralco, including its share in Beacon’s results of operations and amortization of fair value adjustment related to the acquisition of Meralco, amounted to Php1,843 million and Php2,319 million, respectively, in 2011 and Php1,229 million and Php1,928 million, respectively, in 2010. PCEV acquired 223 million Meralco shares on July 14, 2009, of which 154.2 million shares and 68.8 million shares were transferred on May 12, 2010 and October 25, 2011, respectively, to Beacon, where PCEV acquired a 50% equity interest effective March 31, 2010.

Net Income

As a result of the foregoing, other services registered a net income of Php1,985 million, an increase of Php634 million, or 47%, in 2011 from Php1,351 million in 2010.

Core Income

Other services’ core income amounted to Php2,461 million in 2011, an increase of Php395 million, or 19%, as compared with Php2,066 million in 2010 mainly as a result of higher other income and a decrease in expenses, partially offset by an increase in provision for income tax.

2010 Compared to 2009

On a Consolidated Basis

Revenues

Our revenues for 2010 decreased by Php3,636 million, or 2%, to Php158,387 million from Php162,023 million in 2009 primarily due to a decline in our service revenues by Php3,427 million as a result of decreases in cellular, satellite and other revenues from our wireless business, national and international long distance, and local exchange services from our fixed line business, as well as lower customer relationship management revenues from our BPO business. These were partially offset by higher data and other network service revenues from our fixed line business.

Expenses

Our expenses in 2010 decreased by Php1,310 million, or 1%, to Php102,831 million from Php104,141 million in 2009 largely resulting from decreases in asset impairment, cost of sales, selling and promotions, taxes and licenses, interconnection costs, rent, and communication, training and travel expenses partly offset by higher compensation and employee benefits, repairs and maintenance, depreciation and amortization, and professional and other contracted services.

Other Expenses

Other expenses – net in 2010 amounted to Php1,871 million, a decrease of Php1,172 million, or 39%, from Php3,043 million in 2009 primarily due to the combined effects of the following: (i) net increase in equity share in net earnings of associates and joint ventures of Php1,406 million which was mainly due to PCEV’s equity share in net earnings of Meralco of which 68.8 million Meralco shares are held directly by PCEV and an additional 317.8 million Meralco shares are held through Beacon, in which PCEV acquired a 50% equity interest effective March 31, 2010 in exchange for transferring 154.2 million Meralco shares to Beacon; (ii) higher net foreign exchange gains by Php898 million in 2010 as compared with 2009 mainly due to the revaluation of foreign-currency denominated liabilities as a result of the effect of the appreciation of the Philippine peso to the U.S. dollar; (iii) higher net losses on derivative financial instruments by Php735 million due to Smart’s gain in the mark-to-market valuation relating to the derivative option of the exchangeable note purchased as part of the Meralco share acquisition by PCEV in 2009 partially offset by lower mark-to-market loss and hedge costs of PLDT resulting from the partial unwinding of principal-only currency swap contracts; (iv) lower interest income by Php339 million due to lower average level of money market placements and special deposits; (v) an increase in net financing costs by Php142 million mainly due to higher interest on loans and other related items – net, on account of PLDT’s and Smart’s higher average loan balances, and higher accretion on amortization of debt issuance cost and debt discount, and BPO business’ higher accretion on contingent consideration for business acquisitions; and (vi) increase in other income by Php84 million mainly due to gain on disposal of fixed assets of our wireless business and reversal of prior year’s provision by our fixed line business, partially offset by lower gain on fixed assets disposal by our fixed line business.

Provision for Income Tax

Provision for income tax decreased by Php1,318 million, or 9%, to Php13,426 million in 2010 from Php14,744 million in 2009 mainly due to lower taxable income from our fixed line, BPO and other businesses.

Net Income

As a result, our consolidated net income in 2010 was Php40,259 million, an increase of Php164 million from Php40,095 million in 2009 primarily on account of decreases in consolidated provision for income tax, consolidated expenses and consolidated other expenses – net partially offset by a decrease in consolidated revenues.

Adjusted EBITDA

Our consolidated adjusted EBITDA was Php83,717 million in 2010, a decrease of Php2,477 million, or 3%, as compared with Php86,194 million in 2009 primarily due to a decline in our service revenue across our businesses and higher expenses related to compensation and employee benefits, repairs and maintenance, and professional and other contracted services, partly offset by lower expenses particularly provision for doubtful accounts, cost of sales, selling and promotions, and taxes and licenses.

Core Income

Our consolidated core income in 2010 was Php42,028 million, an increase of Php890 million, or 2%, as compared with Php41,138 million in 2009 primarily due to decreases in consolidated provision for income tax and consolidated expenses, partially offset by a decrease in consolidated revenues.

Service Revenues

Our wireless service revenues decreased by Php2,648 million, or 2%, to Php104,024 million in 2010 as compared with Php106,672 million in 2009, mainly as a result of lower revenues from our cellular services, and satellite and other service revenues, partially offset by the increase in the revenue contribution of our broadband services. The decrease in our cellular revenues was mainly due to the decline in revenues from domestic and international text messaging services because of the continued increase in multiple SIM card ownership, intense competition, the continued decline in yields from SMS as a result of aggressive pricing offers, and the prescribed extension of load validity periods. The decline was partially offset, however, by an increase in domestic voice revenues due to the continued patronage of unlimited voice offers, which were introduced starting in the second half of 2009. Our dollar-linked revenues were negatively affected by the appreciation of the Philippine peso relative to the U.S. dollar, which decreased to a weighted average exchange rate of Php45.12 for the year ended December 31, 2010 from Php47.64 for the year ended December 31, 2009 and the sale of transponders by Mabuhay Satellite. With subscriber growth being driven more by multiple SIM card ownership, especially in the lower income segment of the Philippine wireless market, average monthly cellular ARPUs for 2010 were lower as compared with 2009. We expect the decreasing trend in our cellular revenues, particularly our revenues from domestic and international text messaging services, to continue due to the popularity of unlimited offers, multiple SIM card ownership, continued decline in yields from SMS and competitive pressure. As a percentage of our total wireless revenues, service revenues increased to 99% in 2010 from 98% in 2009.

Cellular Service

Our cellular service revenues in 2010 amounted to Php95,520 million, a decrease of Php2,625 million, or 3%, from Php98,145 million in 2009. Cellular service revenues accounted for 92% of our wireless service revenues in each of 2010 and 2009.

(1) | The 2010 and 2009 results have been restated to reflect the change in the presentation of our outbound revenues, as discussed in the “Presentation of Financial Information” section.

Domestic voice service revenues increased by Php3,075 million, or 12%, to Php28,010 million in 2010 from Php24,395 million in 2009 primarily due to an increase in domestic outbound call revenues by Php2,967 million, or 15%, to Php22,807 million in 2010 from Php19,840 million in 2009 mainly due to increased patronage of unlimited voice offerings, complemented by an increase in the revenue contribution of our inbound domestic voice service by Php108 million, or 2%, to Php5,203 million in 2010 from Php5,095 million in 2009 as a result of an increase in revenues from other domestic carriers. Outbound domestic call volumes increased by 10,474 million minutes, or 88%, to 22,350 million minutes in 2010 from 11,876 million minutes in 2009. The increase in inbound domestic call volumes from other domestic carriers was offset by the decrease in call volumes from PLDT’s regular and fixed rate call packages, which resulted in the overall decrease in our inbound domestic call volumes by 58 million minutes, or 4%, to 1,437 million minutes in 2010 from 1,495 million minutes in 2009. The aggregate increase in volumes was mainly due to the higher call volumes from unlimited voice offerings.

International voice service revenues decreased by Php1,039 million, or 6%, to Php17,668 million in 2010 from Php18,707 million in 2009 primarily due to a decline in inbound international voice service revenues by Php578 million, or 4%, to Php14,738 million in 2010 from Php15,316 million in 2009 and due to a decline in outbound international voice service revenues by Php461 million, or 14%, to Php2,930 million in 2010 from Php3,391 million in 2009. The decline in international voice service revenues was due to the effect on our dollar-linked revenues of the appreciation of the Philippine peso relative to the U.S. dollar to a weighted average exchange rate of Php45.12 for the year ended December 31, 2010 from Php47.64 for the year ended December 31, 2009. On the other hand, international inbound and outbound calls totaled 3,026 million minutes in 2010, an increase of 92 million minutes, or 3%, as compared with 2,934 million minutes in 2009, mainly due to an increase in our cellular subscriber base.

Data Services

Cellular revenues from our data services, which include all text messaging-related services, as well as VAS, decreased by Php4,795 million, or 9%, to Php47,236 million in 2010 from Php52,031 million in 2009. Cellular data services accounted for 49% and 53% of our cellular service revenues in 2010 and 2009, respectively.

(1) | The 2010 and 2009 results have been restated to reflect the change in the presentation of our outbound revenues, as discussed in the “Presentation of Financial Information” section.

(2) | Includes revenues from web-based services such as mobile internet browsing, video streaming and Uzzap, net of allocated discounts and content provider costs. Uzzap is an IP-based messaging service that allows instant messaging, email, SMS, group messages, chatting, etc.

(3) | Includes revenues from Pasa Load and Dial*SOS, net of allocated discounts. Pasa Load/Give-a-load is a service which allows prepaid and postpaid subscribers to transfer small denominations of air time credits to other prepaid subscribers. Dial*SOS allows Smart prepaid subscribers to borrow Php4 of load (Php3 on-net SMS plus Php1 air time) from Smart which will be deducted upon their next top-up.

(4) | Includes revenues from info-on-demand and voice text services, net of allocated discounts and content provider costs.

(5) | Includes revenues from point-to-point multimedia messaging system, or MMS, and content download services, such as ringtone, logo or music downloads, net of allocated discounts and content provider costs.

Text messaging-related services contributed revenues of Php44,604 million in 2010, a decrease of Php4,924 million, or 10%, as compared with Php49,528 million in 2009, and accounted for 94% and 95% of our total cellular data revenues in 2010 and 2009, respectively. The decrease in revenues from text messaging-related services resulted mainly from the continued decline in SMS yield as a result of aggressive SMS pricing offers and the increased number of subscribers who also hold SIM cards from other cellular operators and who selectively use such SIM cards. Other factors that contributed to this decline in revenues were the prescribed extension of load validity periods and cheaper alternative means of communication. Text messaging revenues from the various bucket-priced plans totaled Php23,836 million in 2010, a decrease of Php2,961 million, or 11%, as compared with Php26,797 million in 2009. Likewise, standard text messaging revenues decreased by Php1,872 million, or 10%, to Php17,234 million in 2010 from Php19,106 million in 2009. The decrease in international text messaging revenues was mainly due to the decline in SMS yield as a result of the bucket offers as well as the increase in the average roaming SMS settlement cost.

Bucket-priced text messages in 2010 totaled 312,634 million, an increase of 54,444 million, or 21%, as compared with 258,190 million in 2009, primarily due to the continued patronage of bucket and unlimited text messaging offers. Standard text messages totaled 18,319 million in 2010, a decrease of 1,049 million, or 5%, as compared with 19,368 million in 2009, as a result of subscribers moving to bucket-priced text services.

VAS contributed revenues of Php2,593 million in 2010, an increase of Php121 million, or 5%, as compared with Php2,472 million in 2009, primarily due to an increase in revenues from internet-based VAS, which increased by Php332 million, or 63%, to Php858 million in 2010 from Php526 million in 2009, and Pasa Load, partially offset by lower usage of MMS-based VAS.

Subscriber Base, ARPU and Churn Rates

As at December 31, 2010, Smart, including Talk ‘N Text and Red Mobile subscribers totaled 45,636,008 an increase of 4,307,367, or 10%, over their combined cellular subscriber base of 41,328,641 as at December 31, 2009. Our cellular prepaid subscriber base grew by 11% to 45,214,433 as at December 31, 2010 from 40,893,098 as at December 31, 2009, while our cellular postpaid subscriber base decreased by 13,968, or 3%, to 421,575 as at December 31, 2010 from 435,543 as at December 31, 2009. Prepaid subscribers accounted for 99% of our total subscriber base as at December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Prepaid and postpaid subscribers reflected net activations of 4,321,335 and net reductions of 13,968, respectively, in 2010 as compared with net activations of 6,066,630 and 37,407, respectively, in 2009.

For Smart Prepaid, the average monthly churn rate in 2010 and 2009 was 5.0% and 4.2%, respectively, while the average monthly churn rate for Talk ‘N Text subscribers was 5.3% and 5.0% in 2010 and 2009, respectively. The average monthly churn rate for Red Mobile subscribers was 26.9% and 12.3% in 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The average monthly churn rate for Smart’s postpaid subscribers is 2.4% and 1.9% for 2010 and 2009, respectively. Smart’s policy is to redirect outgoing calls to an interactive voice response system if the postpaid subscriber’s account is either 45 days overdue or if the subscriber has exceeded the prescribed credit limit. If the subscriber does not make a payment within 44 days of redirection, the account is temporarily disconnected. If the account is not settled within 30 days from temporary disconnection, the account is then considered as churned. From the time that temporary disconnection is initiated, a series of collection activities is implemented, involving the sending of a collection letter, call-out reminders and collection messages via text messaging.

(4) | The average monthly ARPU of all prepaid and postpaid cellular subscribers.

Prepaid service revenues consist mainly of charges for the subscribers’ actual usage of their loads. Prepaid blended gross average monthly ARPU in 2010 was Php183, a decrease of 16%, as compared with Php218 in 2009. The decrease was primarily due to a decline in the average outbound domestic text messaging revenue per subscriber, as well as a drop in the average inbound international and domestic voice revenue per subscriber in 2010 as compared with the same period in 2009. On a net basis, prepaid blended average monthly ARPU in 2010 was Php161, a decrease of 16%, as compared with Php191 in 2009.

Gross average monthly ARPU for postpaid subscribers decreased by 8% to Php1,678 as net average monthly ARPU also decreased by 8% to Php1,638 in 2010 as compared with Php1,817 and Php1,781 in 2009, respectively. Prepaid and postpaid gross average monthly blended ARPU was Php198 in 2010, a decrease of 16%, as compared with Php235 in 2009. Likewise, the net average monthly prepaid and postpaid blended ARPU decreased by 16% to Php175 in 2010 from Php209 in 2009.

##### Table of Contents

Wireless Broadband

Revenues from our wireless broadband services increased by Php903 million, or 17%, to Php6,287 million in 2010 from Php5,384 million in 2009, primarily due to the 31% growth in broadband subscriber base.

SBI offers a number of wireless broadband services and had a total of 1,355,977 subscribers as at December 31, 2010, an increase of 318,257 subscribers, or 31%, as compared with 1,037,720 subscribers as at December 31, 2009. Our postpaid wireless broadband subscriber base decreased by 5,280 subscribers, or 1%, to 430,757 subscribers as at December 31, 2010 from 436,037 subscribers as at December 31, 2009, while our prepaid wireless broadband subscriber base increased by 323,537 subscribers, or 54%, to 925,220 subscribers as at December 31, 2010 from 601,683 subscribers as at December 31, 2009.

Satellite and Other Services

Revenues from our satellite and other services decreased by Php926 million, or 29%, to Php2,217 million in 2010 from Php3,143 million in 2009, primarily due to the lower satellite transponder rental revenues as a result of the sale of transponders by Mabuhay Satellite and the effect of the appreciation of the weighted average exchange rate of the Philippine peso to the U.S. dollar to Php45.12 for the year ended December 31, 2010 from Php47.64 for the year ended December 31, 2009 on our U.S. dollar and U.S. dollar-linked satellite and other service revenues.

Non-Service Revenues

Our wireless non-service revenues consist of proceeds from sales of cellular handsets, cellular SIM-packs and broadband data modems. Our wireless non-service revenues decreased by Php338 million, or 20%, to Php1,357 million in 2010 as compared with Php1,695 million in 2009 primarily due to the lower combined average retail price of cellular phonekits and SIM-packs, as well as broadband data modems.

Expenses

Expenses associated with our wireless business in 2010 amounted to Php59,807 million, a decrease of Php3,468 million, or 5%, from Php63,275 million in 2009. A significant portion of this decrease was attributable to lower expenses related to rent, asset impairment, cost of sales, interconnection costs, taxes and licenses, and selling and promotions, partially offset by higher expenses related to repairs and maintenance, compensation and employee benefits, professional and other contracted services, and insurance and security services. As a percentage of our total wireless revenues, expenses associated with our wireless business accounted for 57% and 58% in 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The following table summarizes the breakdown of our total wireless-related expenses for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the percentage of each expense item to the total:

##### Table of Contents

Depreciation and amortization charges increased by Php6 million to Php13,243 million in 2010 principally due to an increase in depreciation on the growing asset base of 3G and 2G networks.

Interconnection costs decreased by Php649 million, or 6%, to Php10,194 million primarily due to inter-operator rebates, a decrease in outbound traffic for domestic calls and SMS and the appreciation of the Philippine peso relative to the U.S. dollar.

Rent expenses decreased by Php1,515 million, or 14%, to Php9,038 million primarily due to decrease in domestic leased circuits partially offset by the increase in cell site rental charges as a result of increase in the number of cell sites. In 2010, we had 6,037 cell sites, 10,316 cellular/mobile broadband base stations and 2,519 fixed wireless broadband-enabled base stations, as compared with 5,539 cell sites, 9,727 cellular/mobile broadband base stations and 2,007 fixed wireless broadband-enabled base stations in 2009.

Compensation and employee benefits expenses increased by Php326 million, or 5%, to Php6,385 million primarily due to higher MRP costs and higher salaries and employee benefits as a result of merit-based increases, partially offset by the lower provision for LTIP and pension benefits. Employee headcount of Smart and its subsidiaries decreased to 5,165 in 2010 as compared with 5,454 in 2009.

Repairs and maintenance expenses increased by Php718 million, or 17%, to Php5,058 million mainly due to an increase in cellular network facilities and software maintenance expenses, higher site electricity cost and higher fuel costs for power generation, partly offset by lower maintenance charges for computer hardware and broadband network facilities.

Selling and promotion expenses decreased by Php242 million, or 6%, to Php3,809 million primarily due to lower spending on advertising and promotional campaigns and commission expenses.

Cost of sales decreased by Php776 million, or 18%, to Php3,587 million primarily due to the lower combined average cost of cellular phonekits and SIM-packs, the lower average cost of cellular retention packages and the lower average cost of broadband modems.

Professional and other contracted service fees increased by Php200 million, or 7%, to Php3,104 million primarily due to the increase in consultancy fees, management fees, corporate membership fees, outsourced service fees and other professional fees, partly offset by the lower contracted service fees, customer relationship management service fees and technical service fees.

Taxes and licenses expenses decreased by Php341 million, or 17%, to Php1,681 million primarily due to lower non-creditable input taxes and business-related license fees.

Communication, training and travel expenses decreased by Php26 million, or 3%, to Php946 million primarily due to lower communication, training and travel expenses.

Insurance and security services expenses increased by Php50 million, or 6%, to Php831 million primarily due to higher site security expense and insurance premiums, partially offset by lower office security expense.

Asset impairment decreased by Php1,202 million, or 59%, to Php824 million mainly due to the impairment loss recognized on the investment in Blue Ocean Wireless in 2009, lower provision for uncollectible receivables from subscribers and lower provision for obsolescence of slow-moving commercial and network inventory in 2010.

Amortization of intangible assets increased by Php8 million, or 6%, to Php134 million primarily due to the amortization of intangible assets relating to the acquisition of Chikka and PDSI.

Other expenses decreased by Php25 million, or 3%, to Php973 million primarily due to lower various business and operational-related expenses.

Our wireless business’ other expenses amounted to Php136 million in 2010, a decrease of Php677 million, or 83%, from Php813 million in 2009 primarily due to the combined effects of the following: (i) net decrease in equity share in net losses of associates by Php459 million; (ii) net increase in foreign exchange gains by Php372 million on account of higher gains on revaluation of net foreign currency-denominated liabilities due to the effect of the appreciation of the Philippine peso to the U.S. dollar; (iii) decrease in other income by Php7 million mainly due to a gain on sale of investment in 2009, partially offset by a gain on sale of fixed assets in 2010; (iv) higher net financing costs by Php70 million primarily due to higher interest on loans and other related items on account of Smart’s higher average loan balances and increase in accretion of financial liabilities partly offset by the increase in capitalized interest; (v) decrease in interest income by Php84 million mainly due to Smart’s lower average level of short-term investments; and (vi) net gain on derivative financial instruments of Php3 million in 2010 as compared with net losses on derivative financial instruments of Php4 million in 2009 mainly due to lower mark-to-market loss in 2010.

Provision for Income Tax

Provision for income tax decreased by Php1,043 million, or 8%, to Php11,413 million in 2010 from Php12,456 million in 2009 due to tax recognized on the transfer of the Talk ‘N Text business to Smart in 2009. In 2010, the effective tax rate for our wireless business was 25% as compared with 28% in 2009. Smart and certain of its subsidiaries opted to use the optional standard deduction, or OSD, method in computing their taxable income in 2010 and 2009.

Net Income

As a result of the foregoing, our wireless business recorded a net income of Php34,025 million in 2010, an increase of Php2,202 million, or 7%, from Php31,823 million recorded in 2009.

Adjusted EBITDA

As a result of the foregoing, our wireless business’ adjusted EBITDA decreased by Php447 million, or 1%, to Php58,964 million in 2010 from Php59,411 million in 2009.

Core Income

Our wireless business’ core income increased by Php1,637 million, or 5%, to Php33,352 million in 2010 from Php31,715 million in 2009 on account of a decrease in the wireless-related expenses and lower provision for income tax, partially offset by a decrease in wireless revenues.

Service Revenues

Our fixed line business provides local exchange service, international and national long distance services, data and other network services, and miscellaneous services. Our fixed line service revenues decreased by Php1,864 million, or 3%, to Php59,125 million in 2010 from Php60,989 million in 2009 due to decreases in revenues from our international and national long distance, and local exchange services, partially offset by the increase in revenues from our miscellaneous, and data and other network services.

Local Exchange Service

The following table summarizes the key measures of our local exchange service business as at and for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009:

(1) | The 2010 and 2009 results have been restated to reflect the change in the presentation of our outbound revenues, as discussed in the “Presentation of Financial Information” section.

Revenues from our local exchange service decreased by Php339 million, or 2%, to Php15,342 million in 2010 from Php15,681 million in 2009 primarily due to a decrease in ARPU on account of lower fixed charges due to the increase in demand for bundled voice and data services and a decrease in installation and service connection charges, partially offset by an increase in the average number of postpaid billed lines as a result of the launching of PLDT Call All service promotions related to PLP. The percentage contribution of local exchange revenues to our total fixed line service revenues accounted for 26% in each of 2010 and 2009.

PLP offers both postpaid and prepaid wireless services, which allows subscribers to bring the telephone set anywhere within the home zone area.

(1) | The 2010 and 2009 results have been restated to reflect the change in the presentation of our outbound revenues, as discussed in the “Presentation of Financial Information” section.

Our total international long distance service revenues decreased by Php469 million, or 4%, to Php11,112 million in 2010 from Php11,581 million in 2009 primarily due to the decrease in call volumes, the unfavorable effect of the appreciation of the weighted average exchange rate of the Philippine peso to the U.S. dollar to Php45.12 for the year ended December 31, 2010 from Php47.64 for the year ended December 31, 2009 and a lower average collection rate. The percentage contribution of international long distance service revenues to our total fixed line service revenues accounted for 19% in each of 2010 and 2009.

Our revenues from inbound international long distance service decreased by Php254 million, or 3%, to Php9,851 million in 2010 from Php10,105 million in 2009 due to a decline in inbound call volumes and the effect of the appreciation of the weighted average exchange rate of the Philippine peso to the U.S. dollar, since settlement charges for inbound calls are primarily billed in U.S. dollars, partially offset by a higher average settlement rate.

Our revenues from outbound international long distance service decreased by Php215 million, or 15%, to Php1,261 million in 2010 from Php1,476 million in 2009 primarily due to the effect of the appreciation of the weighted average exchange rate of the Philippine peso to the U.S. dollar to Php45.12 for the year ended December 31, 2010 from Php47.64 for the year ended December 31, 2009, resulting in a decrease in the average billing rates to Php45.31 in 2010 from Php47.78 in 2009, a decline in outbound call volumes and a lower average collection rate in dollar terms.

Our national long distance service revenues decreased by Php1,366 million, or 17%, to Php6,487 million in 2010 from Php7,853 million in 2009 primarily due to a decrease in call volumes, partially offset by an increase in the average revenue per minute for our national long distance services due to cessation of certain promotions on our national long distance calling rates. The percentage contribution of national long distance revenues to our fixed line service revenues accounted for 11% in 2010 from 13% in 2009.

Our data and other network services posted revenues of Php22,785 million in 2010, an increase of Php88 million from Php22,697 million in 2009 primarily due to an increase in domestic broadband services, owing to higher revenues from PLDT DSL, as well as an increase in international data revenues, particularly from i-Gate, partially offset by a decrease in domestic leased line revenues resulting from the lower revenue contribution of Diginet, our domestic leased private line service. The percentage contribution of this service segment to our fixed line service revenues increased to 38% in 2010 from 37% in 2009.

Domestic

Domestic data services contributed Php15,646 million in 2010, a decrease of Php747 million, or 5%, as compared with Php16,393 million in 2009 mainly due to lower Diginet revenues partially offset by the continued growth in DSL, Shops.Work Unplugged, or SWUP, IP-VPN and Metro Ethernet subscribers as customer locations and bandwidth requirements continued to expand and demand for offshoring and outsourcing services increased. The percentage contribution of domestic data service revenues to total data and other network services decreased to 69% in 2010 from 72% in 2009.

Broadband data revenues amounted to Php8,511 million in 2010, an increase of Php1,279 million, or 18%, from Php7,232 million in 2009 primarily due to the higher revenue contribution of DSL which contributed revenues of Php8,263 million in 2010 from Php7,024 million in 2009 as a result of the increase in the number of subscribers, partially offset by the lower ARPU as a result of the launching of lower-priced promotional plans. DSL revenues accounted for 37% and 31% of total data and other network service revenues in 2010 and 2009, respectively. DSL subscribers increased by 15% to 643,048 subscribers as at December 31, 2010 from 559,664 subscribers in 2009.

Our fixed line business’ other expenses – net amounted to Php2,694 million in 2010, a decrease of Php679 million, or 20%, from Php3,373 million in 2009. The change was due to the combined effects of the following: (i) net increase in foreign exchange gains by Php476 million on account of higher gains on net foreign exchange revaluation of foreign-currency denominated liabilities due to the effect of the appreciation of the Philippine peso to the U.S. dollar; (ii) lower loss on derivative financial instruments by Php432 million in 2010 as compared with 2009 due to lower mark-to-market loss and hedge costs of PLDT resulting from the partial unwinding of principal-only currency swap contracts; (iii) increase in equity share in net earnings of joint ventures by Php116 million; (iv) an

increase in interest income by Php87 million due to higher average interest rate and higher level of cash balances; (v) an increase in net financing costs by Php60 million due to an increase in interest expense on loans and related items – net on account of a higher level of average loan balances as well as lower capitalized interest, partially offset by lower level of average interest rate; and (vi) decrease in other income by Php372 million mainly due to the partial recovery of priority deposit from ProtoStar, higher miscellaneous income from consultancy, and subsidiaries and affiliates.

Compensation and employee benefits decreased by Php524 million, or 10%, to Php4,922 million mainly due to a decline in salaries and employee benefits, and the lower provision for LTIP, as well as decreases in MRP costs and pension benefits. Although BPO employee headcount increased by 346 to 14,033 in 2010 as compared with 13,687 in 2009, related costs decreased due to lower labor cost per head, particularly from our knowledge processing solutions business.

Rent expenses decreased by Php41 million, or 8%, to Php445 million primarily due to the expiration of several leases and closure of several offices of knowledge processing solutions business partly offset by higher office building and site rental charges by the customer relationship management business.

Other income associated with other services decreased by Php591 million, or 30%, to Php1,371 million in 2010 from Php1,962 million in 2009 primarily due to the combined effects of the following: (i) higher equity share in net earnings by Php831 million primarily due to the increase in PCEV’s direct and indirect share in the net earnings of Meralco, partly offset by PCEV’s share in expenses of Beacon and fair value adjustment related to the acquisition of Meralco; (ii) a net decrease in foreign exchange losses by Php106 million; (iii) lower financing costs by Php6 million; (iv) a decrease in interest income by Php357 million mainly due to the interest income recognized in 2009 on the exchangeable note purchased by PCEV; (v) lower gain on derivative transactions by Php1,170 million mainly due to the gain in 2009 in the mark-to-market valuation relating to the derivative option of the exchangeable note purchased as part of the Meralco share acquisition by PCEV; and (vi) a decrease in other income by Php7 million.

Meralco’s reported and core income amounted to Php9,685 million and Php12,155 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, respectively, as compared with Php6,005 million and Php7,003 million for the year ended

December 31, 2009, respectively. These results reflect the higher volume of energy sold resulting from unusually high temperatures, higher consumption brought about by election spending in the first half of 2010 and of the upturn in business expansions within the franchise area throughout the year. In addition, the results were boosted by the increase in billed customers, as well as the implementation of the distribution rate adjustments approved by the Energy Regulatory Commission. PCEV’s share in the reported and core income of Meralco (PCEV acquired 223 million Meralco shares on July 14, 2009, of which 154.2 million shares were transferred to Beacon, where PCEV acquired a 50% equity interest effective March 31, 2010), including share in Beacon’s December 31, 2010 results of operations, amounted to Php1,229 million and Php1,928 million, respectively, in 2010.

Plans and Prospects

We are the largest and most diversified telecommunications company in the Philippines. We offer the broadest range of telecommunications services among all operators in the Philippines. We plan to capitalize on this position to attain undisputed market leadership. We plan to adopt an integrated approach to our customers with the delivery of a superior customer experience. We will reinforce our leading position in network quality and reach while offering a broader range and higher quality of products and services. In addition, we intend to align the deployment of our fixed line and wireless platforms and technologies such that these initiatives dovetail and result in cost efficiencies. We will continue to consider value-accretive investments in related businesses such as those in the global outsourcing and off-shoring industry.

Our 2012 budget for consolidated capital expenditures is approximately Php38.1 billion, of which approximately Php18 billion is budgeted to be spent by Smart, approximately Php13 billion is budgeted to be spent by PLDT, approximately Php6 billion is budgeted to be spent by Digitel and the balance represents the budgeted capital spending of our other subsidiaries. PLDT’s capital spending is intended principally to finance the continued build-out and upgrade of its broadband data and IP infrastructures and for its fixed line data services and the maintenance of its network. Smart’s capital spending is focused on expanding and upgrading its transmission network from the backbone up to last-mile facilities to meet increased demand for cellular and broadband services in a highly-competitive playing field and as part of its network modernization program. Smart’s 2012 capital investments are driven by rapidly-evolving technologies in both voice- and data-centric environments, improvement of quality and subscriber experience, expansion of capacity and achieving operational and cost efficiencies with its accelerated network modernization program. The aggressive rollout, expansion and modernization programs will likewise prepare Smart for the continued massive growth and demand in broadband business. Digitel’s capital spending is intended principally to finance the expansion of fixed mobile convergence and continued upgrade of its core and transmission network to increase penetration, particularly in provincial areas. The higher than usual level of capital expenditures stems from the acceleration of our technology roadmap, given current market dynamics and the anticipated surge in demand for data. The budget also includes provisions for the modernization of our networks, adapting to the more voice- and data-centric environment.

Our capital expenditure projects can be classified as follows:

| (1) | Technical Objectives – these include the upgrade and modernization of the wireless network in order to realize operating and cost efficiencies, provide greater resilience and redundancy, as well as investments in additional cable systems;

##### Table of Contents

| (2) | Commercial Objectives – these include the provisioning of expanded capacity and coverage as well as new platforms to expand service offerings; and

| (3) | IT/Support Systems – these include the upgrade of our IT and support systems.

Given the favorable state of our financial position, we expect to fund incremental capital expenditures from both debt and free cash flow.

Thus, the investment in 223 million shares in Meralco was recorded at Php21,356 million and a gain of Php1,286 million was recognized on the exchangeable note representing the mark-to-market gains of Php1,170 million from the derivative option and the amortization of the note’s discount of Php116 million.

In view of the change in PCEV’s business direction upon the acquisition of Meralco shares, Smart’s Board of Directors approved a tender offer to acquire the approximately 840 million shares from PCEV’s non-controlling shareholders (representing approximately 7.19% of the outstanding shares of PCEV) at Php8.50 per share payable entirely in cash on August 12, 2009. Approximately 93% of PCEV’s non-controlling shares tendered and Smart paid Php6,618 million to tendering shareholders on August 12, 2009, thereby increasing its ownership in PCEV to approximately 99.5% of PCEV’s outstanding common stock.

Credit Ratings

None of our existing indebtedness contains provisions under which credit rating downgrades would trigger a default, changes in applicable interest rates or other similar terms and conditions.

PLDT’s current credit ratings are as follows:

Rating Agency |  | Credit Rating |  |  |  | Outlook
Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, or S&P |  | Long-term Foreign Issuer Credit |  | BB+ |  | Positive
|  | ASEAN regional scale |  | axBBB+ |  |
Moody’s Investor Service, or Moody’s |  | Foreign Currency Senior Unsecured Debt Rating |  | Baaa3 |  | Stable
|  | Local Currency Issuer Rating |  | Baa2 |  | Stable
Fitch Ratings, or Fitch |  | Long-term Foreign Currency Issuer Default Rating |  | BBB- |  | Stable
|  | Long-term Local Currency Issuer Default Rating |  | A- |  | Stable
|  | National Long-term Rating |  | AAA(ph1) |  | Stable
|  | Foreign senior unsecured rating |  | BBB- |  |

On December 16, 2011, S&P revised the outlook for PLDT to “positive” from “stable” and affirmed our long-term foreign issuer credit rating at “BB+”. On the S&P Asean regional scale, PLDT’s rating stood at “axBBB+”.

On November 30, 2011, Fitch affirmed PLDT’s long-term foreign and local currency issuer default ratings at “BBB-” and “A-”, respectively. These ratings are considered “investment grade.” Also, our national long-term rating has been affirmed at “AAA(ph1), as well as our global bonds and senior notes at “BBB-”. The outlook is stable. The ratings reflect PLDT’s improved market position in the Philippine telecommunications industry following its successful acquisition of Digitel in an all-equity deal. The acquisition complemented PLDT’s leadership position across the wireless, fixed line and broadband segments. The stable outlook recognizes PLDT’s ability to sustain its leading market position and maintain our strong financial profile, despite increasing shareholder distributions.

On June 15, 2011, Moody’s upgraded PLDT’s foreign currency bond rating to Baa3 from Ba1, while the local currency issuer rating was affirmed at Baa2. Both ratings are considered “investment grade.” The outlook in both ratings is stable. The rating upgrade of the foreign currency bond rating follows Moody’s upgrade of the Philippine government’s long-term foreign currency rating to Ba2 and the foreign currency country ceiling to Baa3.

Equity Financing

Through our SIP which provides postpaid fixed line subscribers the opportunity to buy shares of our 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock as part of the upfront payments collected from subscribers, PLDT was able to raise approximately Php2 million and Php3 million in 2011 and 2010, respectively.

As part of our goal to maximize returns to our shareholders, in 2008, we obtained Board of Directors’ approval for a share buyback program of up to five million shares of PLDT’s common stock, representing approximately 3% of PLDT’s total outstanding shares of common stock. According to the share buyback program, as at December 31, 2011, we acquired a total of approximately 2.72 million shares of PLDT’s common stock for a total consideration of Php6,505 million representing approximately 1% of PLDT’s outstanding shares of common stock, at a weighted average price of Php2,388 per share. The effect of the acquisition of shares of PLDT’s common stock pursuant to the share buyback program was considered in the computation of our basic and diluted earnings per common share for 2011 and 2010. See “Item 16E – Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchaser” and Note 8 – Earnings Per Common Share, Note 19 – Equity and Note 27 – Financial Assets and Liabilities to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further details.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

Inflation can be a significant factor in the Philippine economy, and we are continually seeking ways to minimize its impact. The average inflation rate in the Philippines in 2011 was 4.8% as compared with 3.8% in 2010. Moving forward, we currently expect inflation to increase, which may have an adverse impact on our operations.

Under the Shareholders Agreement, NTT Communications is also entitled to appoint members or advisors of certain PLDT management and board committees, including the audit, governance and nomination, executive compensation and technology strategy committees described below under “– Audit, Governance and Nomination, Executive Compensation and Technology Strategy Committees,” and as a result of the Cooperation Agreement, the FP Parties and NTT Communications agreed to use reasonable efforts to procure that NTT DOCOMO be entitled to appoint one individual, who may be replaced at any time, to attend any board committee of PLDT as a member, advisor or observer.

(3) | Includes longevity pay, mid-year bonus, 13 th month and Christmas bonus.

(4) | Includes variable pay and other payments. Variable pay is based on an annual incentive system that encourages and rewards both individual and group/team performance and is tied to the achievement of Corporate/Unit/Customer Satisfaction Objectives. It covers regular officers and executives of PLDT and is based on a percentage of their guaranteed annual cash compensation. The 2010 other compensation includes LTIP payments during the year.

The attendance fees for directors were last adjusted in July 1998. The Executive Compensation Committee recommended the increase taking into consideration PLDT’s profitability growth (versus Board remuneration) and the results of the survey on Board remuneration conducted by Watson Wyatt, which showed that PLDT’s directors’ remuneration, consisting only of fees for meeting attendance, and/or retainer fees and profit share were below the median of directors’ remuneration among participating companies in the survey.

There are no agreements between PLDT Group and any of its key management personnel providing for benefits upon termination of employment, except for such benefits to which they may be entitled under PLDT Group’s retirement and incentive plans.

Long-term Incentive Plan

On August 28, 2006, the PLDT’s Board of Directors approved, in principle, the broad outline of the PLDT Group’s strategic plans for 2007 to 2009 focusing on the development of new revenue streams to drive future growth while protecting the existing core communications business. To ensure the proper execution of the three-year plan, particularly with respect to the manpower resources being committed to such plans, 2007 to 2009 LTIP, upon endorsement of the ECC, was approved by the Board of Directors to cover the period from January 1, 2007 to December 31, 2009, or the 2007 to 2009 Performance Cycle. The payment under the 2007 to 2009 LTIP was intended to be made at the end of the 2007 to 2009 Performance Cycle (without interim payments) and contingent upon the achievement of an approved target increase in PLDT’s common share price by the end of the 2007 to 2009 Performance Cycle and a cumulative consolidated net income target for the 2007 to 2009 Performance Cycle. The 2007 to 2009 LTIP payments were made in April 2010.

The 2010 to 2012 LTIP has been presented to and approved by the Employees Compensation Commission and Board of Directors, and is based on profit targets covering the Performance Cycle. The cost of the 2010 to 2012 LTIP is determined using the projected unit credit method based on assumed discount rates and profit targets.

The LTIP is a cash plan that is intended to provide meaningful, contingent, financial incentive compensation for eligible executives, officers and advisors of the PLDT Group, who are consistent performers and contributors to the achievement of the long-term strategic plans and objectives, as well as the functional strategy and goals of the PLDT Group, and administered by the ECC which has the authority to determine: (a) eligibility and identity of participants; (b) the award attributable to each participant based on the participant’s annual base compensation and taking into account such participant’s seniority, responsibility level, performance potential, tenure with the PLDT Group, job difficulty and such other measures as the Committee deems appropriate; (c) the level of achievement of the performance objectives; and (d) the actual award payable to each participant based on the level of achievement of the performance objectives.

The fair value of the 2007 to 2009 LTIP recognized as expense amounted to Php1,833 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. The outstanding LTIP liability amounted to Php4,582 million as at December 31, 2009 was paid in April 2010. Total outstanding liability and fair value of the 2010 to 2012 LTIP amounted to Php1,392 million as at and for the year ended December 31, 2010. Based on our latest projection, the profit targets for the covered Performance Cycle is no longer achievable, thus, accrued LTIP cost as at December 31, 2010 was reversed and presented as part of other income in our consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2011. See Note 3 – Management’s Use of Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions, Note 5 – Income and Expenses and Note 25 – Share-based Payments and Employee Benefits to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

To ensure the proper execution of our strategic and operational business plans while taking into account the acquisition of Digitel in 2011 and other recent market developments, our LTIP has been revised and, with the endorsement of the ECC, approved by the Board of Directors on March 22, 2012. The award in the revised LTIP is contingent upon the successful achievement of certain profit targets, aligns the execution of the business strategies of the expanded Group, including Digitel, over the three year period 2012 to 2014. In addition, the revised LTIP allows for the participation of a number of senior executives and important new hires executives, ensures the continuity of management and assists in succession planning of the PLDT Group.

There are no other warrants or options held by PLDT’s officers or directors either singly or collectively.

The following is a description of the complaints in which our director and President and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Napoleon L. Nazareno and director and Corporate Secretary, Atty. Ma. Lourdes C. Rausa-Chan are respondents:

| 1. | Mr. Napoleon L. Nazareno and other directors and officers of the former PDCP Bank and some officers of the BSP and Development Bank of the Philippines (hereinafter the “Respondents”), were charged in a complaint docketed as I.S. No. 2004-631 filed by Chung Hing Wong/Unisteel/Unisco Metals, Inc. (the “Complainants”) with the Department of Justice, or DOJ, for alleged syndicated estafa, estafa thru falsification of documents, other deceits, malversation and robbery. In the complaint-affidavit, the Complainants alleged that the officers and directors of PDCP Bank deceived the Complainants to secure a loan from PDCP Bank through misrepresentation and with the sinister purpose of taking over the Complainants’ corporation. As stated in Mr. Nazareno’s counter-affidavit, the charges against him are manifestly unmeritorious since he has not personally met the Complainants, nor is he a party to the questioned transactions and, as such, could not have deceived the Complainants in any manner. The complaint was referred to the Office of the Ombudsman, or OMB, by the DOJ on October 30, 2007 considering that some of the Respondents are public officers and the offenses charged were committed in the performance of their official functions.

##### Table of Contents

In an Order dated July 30, 2008, the OMB confirmed that it was conducting a review of the said DOJ Resolution for the abovestated reason and that its authority relative to the case forwarded to it by the DOJ is limited to conducting a review of the DOJ Resolution and not to conduct another preliminary investigation of the case.

In the OMB’s Review and Recommendation dated November 28, 2008, the OMB approved the DOJ Resolution dated September 7, 2007 dismissing the complaint and referred the case to the DOJ for appropriate action.

The Complainants filed separate Motions for Reconsideration before the DOJ and OMB on July 16, 2008 and December 1, 2009, respectively. On December 16, 2009, the DOJ issued a resolution denying the Complainants’ Motion for Reconsideration for lack of merit. In response, the Complainants filed a Petition for Review with the Secretary of Justice on March 2, 2010, Mr. Nazareno and the other Respondents have filed their respective comments to the petition, which remain pending to date with the Office of the Secretary of Justice.

With respect to the Complainants’ Motion for Reconsideration with the OMB, following appeals to the Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court, the denial of the Motion for Reconsideration by the OMB became final and unappealable on March 28, 2011.

| 2. | Atty. Ma. Lourdes C. Rausa-Chan and other former corporate secretaries/assistant corporate secretaries of Steniel Cavite Packaging Corporation, Metro Paper and Packaging Products, Inc., AR Packaging Corporation and Starpack Philippines Corporation, are respondents in a complaint docketed as OMB C-C-04-0363-H (CPL No. C-04-1248), filed with the OMB. The complaint is for alleged: (a) violation of Republic Act No. 3019 (otherwise known as the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act); (b) estafa through falsification of public documents; (c) falsification of public documents under Article 171, in relation to Article 172, of the Revised Penal Code; (d) infidelity in the custody of public documents under Article 226 of the RPC; and (e) grave misconduct. It relates to various tax credit certificates (allegedly fraudulent, with spurious and fake supporting documents) issued to Victory Textile Mills, Inc. (allegedly, a non-existent corporation with fictitious incorporators and directors) and transferred to several companies including the aforesaid companies. The complaints against Atty. Rausa-Chan involve the first two offenses only and in her capacity as corporate secretary of Metro Paper and Packaging Products, Inc. In the opinion of the legal counsel of Atty. Rausa-Chan, there are no legal and factual bases for her inclusion as respondent in this complaint. Atty. Rausa-Chan had no participation or involvement in the alleged anomalous acquisition and transfer of the subject tax credit certificates. The case is still pending with the OMB.

Employees and Labor Relations

PLDT had 7,067 employees as at December 31, 2011, of which 21% were rank-and-file employees, 73% were management/supervisory staff and 6% were executives. This number represents an increase of 59, or approximately 1%, from the staff level as at December 31, 2010. From a peak of 20,312 employees, as at December 31, 1994, PLDT’s number of employees declined by 13,245 employees, or 65%, as at December 31, 2011.

##### Table of Contents

The decrease in the number of employees within the PLDT Group from 2009 to 2010 primarily resulted from the MRP in our fixed line and wireless businesses, while the increase in headcount from 2010 to 2011 was primarily due to the inclusion of Digitel’s employees resulting from its acquisition on October 26, 2011.

PLDT has three employee unions, representing in the aggregate 4,796, or 14% of the employees of the PLDT Group. We consider our relationship with our rank-and-file employees’ union, our supervisors’ union and our sales supervisors’ union to be good.

On October 7, 2009, PLDT and the Manggagawa ng Komunikasyon sa Pilipinas, or MKP, our rank-and-file employees’ union, concluded and signed a new three-year CBA covering the period from November 9, 2009 to November 8, 2012. This CBA provides each member a signing bonus equivalent to one month’s salary (computed at the salary rate prevailing prior to November 9, 2009) plus Php15,000; expeditious agreement bonus of Php20,000; increase of the monthly salary of Php2,500, Php2,600 and Php2,800 for the first, second and third year, respectively; an increase in the yearly Christmas gift certificate from Php8,000 to Php9,000; an increase in the amount of coverage under the group life insurance plan from Php650,000 to Php750,000; and Php45,000 funeral assistance for the death of a dependent. Other provisions of this CBA include increases in the rice subsidy and professional fee subsidy for dependent’s hospitalization.

On December 22, 2010, a CBA was signed by PLDT and Gabay ng Unyon sa Telekomunikasyon ng mga Superbisor, our supervisors’ union or GUTS, covering a three-year period from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2013. This CBA provides for increases of the monthly salary by 8%, 9% and 9% of basic pay for the first, second and third year of the CBA, respectively, or Php3,000 whichever is higher; a goodwill signing and expeditious agreement bonuses of Php30,000 and Php43,000, respectively; an increase in the yearly Christmas gift certificate from Php9,000 to Php10,000; Php45,000 funeral assistance for the death of a qualified dependent; and additional contribution of Php2 million to the Educational Trust Fund. Other provisions include increases in rice subsidy, per diem allowance and hospitalization benefits for dependents.

On January 6, 2011, a new CBA covering a three-year period starting from January 1, 2011 was signed by PLDT and PLDT Sales Supervisors’ Union, or PSSU, which provided for salary increases for the period from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2013. This CBA provides for increases of the monthly salary by 8%, 9% and 9% of basic pay for the first, second and third year of the CBA, respectively, or Php3,000 whichever is higher; a one-time lump sum clothing accessory allowance of Php8,000; a goodwill signing bonus of Php30,000 and an expeditious agreement bonus of Php43,000; an increase in the yearly Christmas gift certificate from Php9,000 to Php10,000; Php45,000 funeral assistance for the death of a qualified dependent; and additional contribution of Php350,000 to the Educational Trust Fund. Other provisions included increases in rice subsidy, per diem allowance and hospitalization benefits for dependents.

Pension and Retirement Benefits

Defined Benefit Pension Plans

We have defined benefit pension plans, covering substantially all of our permanent and regular employees, except the employees of Smart and its subsidiary, I-Contacts. The plans require contributions to be made to a separate administrative fund.

PLDT has a trustee-managed, non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering all permanent and regular employees. The benefit pension plan provides benefits upon normal retirement beginning at age 65, early retirement beginning at age 50 or completion of at least 30 years of credited service, voluntary resignation with completion of at least 15 years of credited service, total and physical disability, death and involuntary separation. Benefits are based on the employee’s final monthly basic salary and length of service.

The normal retirement benefit is equal to a percentage of the final monthly basic salary per year of credited service. The percentage is 100% for those with less than 15 years of service at retirement and 125% for those with 15 years of service at retirement. Thereafter, the percentage increases by 5% for every additional year of credited service up to a maximum of 200%. Early retirement benefit is equal to the accrued normal retirement benefit based on salary and service at the date of early retirement.

In the event the benefit pension plan’s assets are insufficient to pay the required retirement benefits, PLDT would be obligated to fund the amount of the shortfall. In addition, claims of PLDT’s employees for retirement benefits that have accrued would rank above the claims of all other creditors of PLDT, in the event of PLDT’s bankruptcy or liquidation.

Defined Contribution Plan

Smart and certain of its subsidiaries record expenses for their contribution to the defined contribution plans when the employee renders service to Smart and certain of its subsidiaries, essentially coinciding with their cash contributions to the plans.

Smart and certain of its subsidiaries contributions to the plan are made based on the employee’s years of tenure and range from 5% to 10% of the employee’s monthly salary. Additionally, an employee has an option to make a personal contribution to the fund, at an amount not exceeding 10% of his monthly salary. The employer then provides an additional contribution to the fund ranging from 10% to 50% of the employee’s contribution based on the employee’s years of tenure. Although the plan has a defined contribution format, Smart and I-Contacts regularly monitor compliance with R.A. 7641, otherwise known as “The Retirement Pay Law”. As at December 31, 2011 and 2010, Smart and I-Contacts were in compliance with the requirements of R.A. 7641.

Total consolidated pension benefit income amounted to Php38 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and total consolidated pension benefit costs amounted to Php236 million and Php1,306 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Unrecognized net actuarial gains amounted to Php2,886 million and Php479 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The prepaid benefit costs amounted to Php5,654 million and Php5,333 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The accrued benefit costs amounted to Php496 million and Php415 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

NTC SRF

Since 1994, following the rejection of PLDT’s formal protest against the assessments by the NTC of SRF, PLDT and the NTC have been involved in legal proceedings before the Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court. The principal issue in these proceedings was the basis for the computation of the SRF. PLDT’s opinion, which was upheld by the Court of Appeals, but, as set forth below, rejected by the Supreme Court, was that the SRF should be computed based only on the par value of the subscribed or paid up capital of PLDT, excluding stock dividends, premium or capital in excess of par. The Supreme Court, in its decision dated July 28, 1999, ordered the NTC to make a recomputation of the SRF based on PLDT’s capital stock subscribed and paid. Subsequently, in February 2000, the NTC issued an assessment letter for the balance of the SRF, but in calculating said fees, the NTC used as a basis not only capital stock subscribed or paid but also the stock dividends. PLDT questioned the inclusion of the stock dividends in the calculation of the SRF and sought to restrain the NTC from enforcing/implementing its assessment until the resolution of the said issue. Prior to the resolution of the issue mentioned above, PLDT paid the SRF due in 2000 together with the balance due from the recalculation of the SRF and had been paying the SRF due in September of each year thereafter, excluding the portion that was based on stock dividends.

The Supreme Court, in a resolution promulgated on December 4, 2007, held that the computation of the SRF should be based on the outstanding capital stock of PLDT, including stock dividends. In a letter to PLDT on February 29, 2008, the NTC assessed PLDT the total amount of Php2,870 million as SRF, which included penalties and interest. On April 3, 2008, PLDT paid NTC the outstanding principal amount relating to SRF on stock dividends in the amount of Php455 million, but did not pay the penalties and interest assessed by the NTC. PLDT, through counsel, believes that it is not liable for penalties and interest, and therefore protested and disputed NTC’s assessments of the same. In letters dated April 14, 2008 and June 18, 2008, the NTC demanded payment of the balance of its assessment. On July 9, 2008, PLDT filed a Petition for Certiorari and Prohibition with the Court of Appeals, or the Petition, praying that the NTC be restrained from enforcing or implementing its assessment letter of February 29, 2008, and demand letters dated April 14, 2008 and June 18, 2008, all demanding payment of SRF including penalties and interests. The Petition further prayed that after notice and hearing, the NTC be ordered to forever cease and desist from implementing and/or enforcing, and annulling and reversing and setting aside, the said assessment letter and demand letters. The Court of Appeals, in its Decision dated May 25, 2010, granted PLDT’s Petition and set aside/annulled the NTC’s letters-assessments dated February 29, 2008, April 14, 2008 and June 18, 2008. The NTC did not file a Motion for Reconsideration of the decision of the Court of Appeals. Instead, the NTC, through the Solicitor General, filed a petition for review directly with the Supreme Court. PLDT received a copy of the petition on July 29, 2010, and after receiving the order of the Supreme Court to file its comment, filed its Comment on the petition on December 7, 2010. The NTC filed a Reply dated August 26, 2011, which was received by PLDT on September 6, 2011. PLDT filed a Rejoinder on October 12, 2011. This case is still pending with the Supreme Court.

Matters Relating to a Third Party Aggregator

In late 2009, PLDT informally received a communication which provided a complaint, or the Draft, setting forth a securities class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against PLDT and certain PLDT officers and indicated that such Draft may be filed against PLDT. The Draft alleges that some PLDT officers and employees caused PLDT’s subsidiary, Smart to enter into contracts with a third-party entity in order to divert long distance telephone traffic and profits to such third-party entity. The Draft further alleges that these officers and employees personally created and controlled the third-party entity and were personally enriched as a result. The Draft alleges that this alleged scheme was accomplished by causing Smart to offer a lower rate for long distance telephone traffic to that third-party entity so that long distance traffic which otherwise would have been handled by PLDT at a higher rate was redirected to equipment owned by the third-party entity. The Draft alleges that PLDT failed to disclose material facts regarding the alleged scheme and that, as a result, PLDT misstated its true financial condition in its annual reports from 2002 through 2008.

In light of the nature of the allegations and out of an abundance of caution, PLDT’s Board of Directors referred the Draft for review by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee appointed an independent Investigation Committee to oversee an investigation into the allegations contained in the Draft. The Audit Committee retained independent counsel to lead in the investigation. To preserve the confidential nature of the inquiry, the investigation was limited to internal sources at PLDT, including current PLDT and Smart employees, internal records and discrete inquiries and public records searches.

The independent counsel, under the oversight of the Investigation Committee, has concluded on the basis of the evidence within the control of PLDT or otherwise reasonably available, that: (i) while the investigation cannot

149

##### Table of Contents

definitively exclude the possibility, the investigation has found no evidence to establish that PLDT’s officers and employees were personally involved in the creation of the third-party entity referred to in the Draft and has found no evidence of any improper personal financial benefit or gain by these officers and employees, directly or indirectly from such third party entity; and (ii) while Smart had substantial business relationships with various third-party aggregators of long-distance telephone traffic during the relevant period, including the third-party entity referred to in the Draft (with which Smart ceased doing business in 2008), there is no evidence that the relationship with such third-party entity in fact resulted in a material adverse impact on PLDT’s revenues during the relevant period and may have in fact benefited PLDT overall through an increase in overall call volume.

On May 7, 2010, the Audit Committee of PLDT approved the recommendation and conclusion of the independent counsel, as endorsed by the Investigation Committee.

Matters Relating to Gamboa Case

On June 29, 2011, the Supreme Court of the Philippines promulgated a Decision in the case of Wilson P. Gamboa vs. Finance Secretary Margarito B. Teves, et. al. (G.R. No. 176579) (the “Gamboa Case”), where the Court held that “the term ‘capital’ in Section 11, Article XII of the 1987 Constitution refers only to shares of stock entitled to vote in the election of directors and thus only to voting common shares, and not to the total outstanding capital stock (common and non-voting preferred shares)”. The Decision of the Supreme Court reversed earlier opinions issued by the Philippine SEC that non-voting preferred shares are included in the computation of the 60% to 40% Filipino-alien equity requirement of certain economic activities, such as telecommunications which is a public utility under Section 11, Article XII of the 1987 Constitution.

While PLDT is not a party to the Gamboa Case, the Supreme Court directed the Philippine SEC in the Gamboa Case “to apply this definition of the term ‘capital’ in determining the extent of allowable foreign ownership in Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company, and if there is a violation of Section 11, Article XII of the Constitution, to impose the appropriate sanctions under the law.”

The case is set for oral arguments on April 17, 2012. To the best of PLDT’s knowledge, the Philippine SEC has not commenced any proceeding to determine if PLDT is in violation of Section 11, Article XII of the 1987 Constitution. A finding by the Philippine SEC that there is a violation of Section 11, Article XII of the 1987 Constitution by PLDT may subject the latter to sanctions under Philippine law, including possible revocation of its franchise.

Nonetheless, on July 5, 2011, the Board of Directors of PLDT approved the amendments to the Seventh Article of PLDT’s Articles of Incorporation consisting of the sub-classification of its authorized preferred capital into preferred shares with full voting rights, or Voting Preferred Shares, and serial preferred shares without voting rights, and other conforming amendments, or Amendments to the Articles. The Amendments to the Articles will require the approval by the stockholders of PLDT and the approval of the Philippine SEC. Upon approval of the Amendments to the Articles by the Philippine SEC, up to 150,000,000 Voting Preferred Shares could be initially issued by the Board to, among others, Philippine citizens and Philippine corporations at least 60% of the capital stock entitled to vote is owned or held by such citizens, as and when the Board determines such issuance to be necessary to avoid any disruptions on PLDT’s operations and transactions and to protect the interests of PLDT and its stakeholders. Upon issuance of such Voting Preferred Shares to Filipinos and Filipino-owned entities, the total foreign equity in the total resulting voting shares of PLDT will be reduced from the current 59% to about 35%. A Special Meeting of Stockholders of PLDT was scheduled on September 20, 2011, at which meeting the Amendments to the Articles were supposed to be submitted to PLDT’s stockholders for approval. However, the Special Meeting was cancelled due to an anticipated lack of quorum. In the Special Meeting of Stockholders held on March 22, 2012, the Amendments to the Articles were approved by the holders of more than two-thirds (2/3) of the outstanding capital stock (common and preferred) of PLDT. The Amended Articles of Incorporation will be filed with the Philippine SEC in due time.

Taxation

Local Business and Franchise Taxes

PLDT, Smart, PCEV and Digitel currently face various local business and franchise tax assessments by different local government units.

PLDT, Smart, PCEV and Digitel believe that under Philippine laws then prevailing, they are exempt from payment of local franchise and business taxes to local government units and are contesting the assessment of these taxes in some of these cases.

Arbitration with Eastern Telecommunications Philippines, Inc., or ETPI

Since 1990 (up to present), PLDT and ETPI have been engaged in legal proceedings involving a number of issues in connection with their business relationship. While they have entered into Compromise Agreements in the past (one in February 1990, and another one in March 1999), these agreements have not put to rest their issues against each other. Accordingly, to avoid further protracted litigation and improve their business relationship, both PLDT and ETPI have agreed in April 2008 to submit their differences and issues to voluntary arbitration. For this arbitration (after collating various claims of one party against the other) ETPI, on one hand, initially submitted its claims of about Php2.9 billion against PLDT; while PLDT, on the other hand, submitted its claims of about Php2.8 billion against ETPI. Currently, PLDT and ETPI have agreed to suspend the arbitration proceedings between them.

Other disclosures required by IAS 37, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, were not provided as it may prejudice our position in on-going claims, litigations and assessments.

For more information, see Note 26 – Provisions and Contingencies to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18.

Item 9. | The Offer and Listing

Common Capital Stock and ADSs

The shares of common stock of PLDT are listed and traded on the PSE and, prior to October 19, 1994, were listed and traded on the American Stock Exchange and Pacific Exchange in the United States. On October 19, 1994, an ADR facility was established, pursuant to which Citibank, N.A., as the Depositary, issued ADRs evidencing ADSs with each ADS representing one PLDT common share with a par value of Php5 per share. Effective February 10, 2003, PLDT appointed JP Morgan Chase Bank as successor depositary of PLDT’s ADR Facility. The ADSs are listed on the NYSE and are traded on the NYSE under the symbol of “PHI”.

For the period from January 1 to February 29, 2012, a total of 7.3 million shares of PLDT’s common capital stock were traded on the PSE. During the same period, the volume of trading was 1.8 million ADSs on the NYSE.

On November 9, 2011, the PSE approved the listing of the additional 27.7 million common shares of PLDT, which were issued on October 26, 2011 at the issue price of Php2,500 per share, as consideration for the acquisition by PLDT of the Enterprise Assets of Digitel, see Note 13 – Business Combinations – PLDT’s Acquisition of Digitel to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

On January 27, 2012, a total of 1.61 million PLDT common shares were issued for settlement of the purchase price of 2,518 million common shares of Digitel tendered by the noncontrolling Digitel stockholders under the mandatory tender offer conducted by PLDT, and which opted to receive payment of the purchase price in the form of PLDT common shares.

As at February 29, 2012, 10,837 stockholders were Philippine persons and held approximately 41.22% of PLDT’s common capital stock. In addition, as at February 29, 2012, there were a total of approximately 54 million ADSs outstanding, substantially all of which PLDT believes were held in the United States by 323 holders.

Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws

A summary of certain provisions of PLDT’s Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws and applicable Philippine laws as previously disclosed in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, filed on March 30, 2011, is herein incorporated by reference.

Approval of Voting Preferred Shares

On July 5, 2011, the Board of Directors of PLDT approved the amendments to the Seventh Article of PLDT’s Articles of Incorporation consisting of the sub-classification of its authorized Preferred Capital Stock into: 150 million shares of Voting Preferred Stock with a par value of Php1.00 each, and 807.5 million shares of Non-Voting Serial Preferred Stock with a par value of Php10.00 each, and other conforming amendments (the “Amendments”). The shares of voting preferred stock may be issued, owned, or transferred only to or by: (a) a citizen of the Philippines or a domestic partnership or association wholly-owned by citizens of the Philippines; (b) a corporation organized under the laws of the Philippines of which at least 60% of the capital stock entitled to vote is owned and held by citizens of the Philippines and at least 60% of the board of directors of such corporation are citizens of the Philippines; and (c) a trustee of funds for pension or other employee retirement or separation benefits, where the trustee qualifies under paragraphs (a) and (b) above and at least 60% of the funds accrue to the benefit of citizens of the Philippines. The holders of voting preferred stock will have voting rights at any meeting of the stockholders of PLDT for the election of directors and for all other purposes, with one vote in respect of each share of voting preferred stock.

In the Special Meeting of Stockholders held on March 22, 2012, the Amendments to the Articles were approved by the holders of more than two thirds (2/3) of the outstanding capital stock (common and preferred) of PLDT. The Amended Articles of Incorporation will be filed with the Philippine SEC in due time.

152

##### Table of Contents

Upon the approval of the Amendments by the Philippine SEC, the board of directors, pursuant to the authority granted to it in the Seventh Article of PLDT’s Articles of Incorporation, may determine the specific terms, features and limitations of the Voting Preferred Stock and, as it deems necessary to protect the interest of PLDT and its stakeholders, authorize the issuance of shares of Voting Preferred Stock to Qualified Owners. It is contemplated that the shares of Voting Preferred Stock will have the following other features: (a) entitled to dividends at such rate to be determined by the Board of Directors, payable before any dividends are paid to the holders of Common Stock; (b) not convertible to Common Stock or to any shares of stock of PLDT of any class; (c) redeemable at the option of PLDT; (d) holders will have no pre-emptive right to subscribe or purchase any shares of stock of any class, or convertible debt, securities or warrants issued, sold or disposed by PLDT; and (e) in the event of dissolution or liquidation or winding up of PLDT, holders will be entitled to be paid in full, or pro-rata insofar as the assets of PLDT will permit, the par value of such shares of Voting Preferred Stock and any accrued or unpaid dividends thereon before any distribution shall be made to holders of shares of Common Stock.

All preferred stocks limit the ability of PLDT to pay cash dividends unless all dividends on such preferred stock for all past dividend payment periods have been paid and or declared and set apart and provision has been made for the currently payable dividends.

Redemption of Preferred Shares

On September 23, 2011, the Board of Directors approved the redemption, or the Redemption, of all outstanding shares of PLDT’s 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock Series A to FF, which were issued pursuant to the PLDT SIP Preferred Shares and all such shares were redeemed and retired effective January 19, 2012.

For a detailed description of the redemption of our preferred shares, see Item 4. “Information on the Company – Recent Developments – Redemption of Preferred Shares.”

Material Contracts

Other than the contracts described in Item 4. “Information on the Company – Development Activities (2009-2011)” and Item 7. “Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions,” we have not entered into any material contract that are not in the ordinary course of business within the two years preceding the date of this annual report.

Exchange Controls and Other Limitations Affecting Securities Holders

In Circular No. 1389 dated November 10, 1993, as amended by Circular No. 224 dated January 26, 2000, of the BSP, foreign investments in the shares of stock of Philippine companies listed in the PSE may be registered either with the BSP or with an investor’s designated custodian bank. The foreign investments in listed shares of stock, which are duly registered with the BSP or with a custodian bank duly designated by the foreign investor, are entitled to full and immediate capital repatriation and dividend and interest remittance privileges. Without the need to obtain prior BSP approval, commercial banks are authorized to sell and to remit the equivalent foreign exchange (at the exchange rate prevailing at the time of actual remittance) representing sales and divestment proceeds or dividends of a duly registered foreign equity investment upon presentation of a BSP Registration Document (“BSRD”) together with other supporting documents. The BSRD is issued by the BSP or the custodian bank upon registration of the foreign investment and serves as the authority to repatriate such divestment and sales proceeds or remittance of cash dividends. Effective April 3, 2000, only pre-numbered BSRD forms, printed on BSP security paper may be used and issued as proof of registration of foreign investments in accordance with existing BSP rules. The remitting commercial bank must submit to the BSP a statement of remittance together with the supporting documents within two banking days from date of actual remittance. Foreign investments not duly registered with the BSP or with the investor’s designated custodian bank are not entitled to repatriation and remittance privileges through the banking system except capital repatriation or dividend remittance of direct foreign equity investments made prior to March 15, 1973 when BSP registration was not yet required. The BSP should be notified of the transfer of sale of foreign investments in equity or securities already registered with the BSP, in order that the registration of the foreign investment may be transferred in the name of the transferee or purchaser.

Cash dividends on PLDT’s stock are paid in Philippine peso, except dividends on the Series VI Convertible Preferred Stock, which were paid in U.S. dollars. PLDT’s Transfer Agent for its common stock, The Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation, which also acts as dividend paying agent, converts and remits in U.S. dollars, at the prevailing exchange rate, cash dividends due to all common shareholders residing outside the Philippines. Under the

153

##### Table of Contents

above-mentioned regulations, PLDT has been able to remit the cash dividends due to shareholders residing outside the Philippines. As at December 31, 2011, approximately 87% of PLDT’s outstanding shares of common and preferred stock were held by Philippine persons. For certain restrictions on the declaration and payment of dividends by PLDT, see Note 19 – Equity and Note 20 – Interest-bearing Financial Liabilities to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18.

Principal of and interest on PLDT’s 11.375% Notes due May 2012 and 8.35% Notes due March 2017 are payable in U.S. dollars which may be paid through the local banking system either pursuant to the registration of such Notes with the BSP or otherwise pursuant to specific BSP approval of such payment. Such principal and interest may also be paid utilizing PLDT’s own dollar resources without necessity of BSP approval. The BSP, with the approval of the President of the Philippines, may, however, restrict the availability of foreign exchange during an exchange crisis, when an exchange crisis is imminent, or in times of national emergency.

Taxation

The following is a description of the material Philippine and United States federal income tax consequences to United States Holders (as defined below) of owning shares of Common Stock and ADSs. It applies to you only if you hold your Common Stock or ADSs as capital assets for tax purposes. This section does not apply to you if you are a member of a special class of holders subject to special rules, including a dealer in securities, a trader in securities that elects to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for securities holdings, a tax-exempt organization, a life insurance company, a person liable for alternative minimum tax, a person that actually or constructively owns 10% or more of PLDT’s voting stock, a person that holds Common Stock or ADSs as part of a straddle or a hedging or conversion transaction, or a person whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar.

This section is based on the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “U.S. Tax Code”), its legislative history, existing and proposed regulations, published rulings and court decisions, and the laws of the Philippines including the Philippine National Internal Revenue Code of 1997 (the “Philippine Tax Code”) all as currently in effect, as well as on the Convention Between the Philippines and the United States (the “Philippines-United States Tax Treaty”). These laws are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis. In addition, this section is based in part on the representations of the Depositary and the assumption that each obligation in the Deposit Agreement and any related agreement will be performed according to its terms.

You are a United States Holder if you are a beneficial owner of Common Stock or ADSs and you are a citizen or resident of the United States, a domestic corporation, an estate whose income is subject to United States federal income tax regardless of its source, or a trust if a United States court can exercise primary supervision over the trust’s administration and one or more United States persons are authorized to control all substantial decisions of the trust.

This discussion addresses only United States federal income taxation and Philippine income taxation, estate and donor’s taxation, stock transaction taxation and documentary stamp taxes.

Philippine Taxation

Taxes on Exchange of ADSs for Common Stock

Philippine capital gains or stock transaction taxes and documentary stamp taxes may be payable upon the transfer of shares of Common Stock to a holder of ADRs or to a holder of GDRs. See “– Capital Gains Tax and Stock Transaction Tax” and “– Documentary Stamp Taxes.”

Taxation of Dividends

Under the Philippine Tax Code, dividends paid by a Philippine corporation to citizens of the Philippines and resident aliens in the Philippines are subject to a final withholding tax of 10% while those paid to non-resident aliens engaged in trade or business within the Philippines are subject to a final withholding tax of 20%. Dividends paid to non-resident aliens not engaged in trade or business within the Philippines are subject to a final withholding tax of 25%. Dividends paid by a Philippine corporation to other Philippine corporations or to resident non-Philippine corporations are not subject to tax. Dividends paid to non-resident non-Philippine corporations not engaged in a trade or business in the Philippines by Philippine corporations shall be subject to a final withholding tax of 15%, subject to the condition that the country in which the non-resident non-Philippine corporation is domiciled either: (i) allows a credit against the tax due from the non-resident non-Philippine corporation taxes deemed to have been paid in the

154

##### Table of Contents

Philippines equivalent to 15% effective January 1, 2009 (which represents the difference between the regular income tax on non-resident non-Philippine corporations of 30% effective January 1, 2009 and the 15% tax on dividends) (this condition is not satisfied in the case of corporations domiciled in the United States if such corporations own less than 10% of the voting stock of PLDT) or (ii) imposes no income taxes on dividends received by such non-resident non-Philippine corporations from Philippine corporations (this condition is not satisfied in the case of corporations domiciled in the United States). If neither of the foregoing conditions are met, the dividends paid to the non-resident non-Philippine corporation shall be subject to the regular income tax (in the form of final withholding tax) at the rate of 30% effective January 1, 2009. Under rulings issued by Philippine tax authorities, Hong Kong is viewed as falling within clause (ii) and, thus, companies that are organized in Hong Kong that are not engaged in trade or business in the Philippines may be entitled to the benefit of the 15% rate. Such rulings, however, were based upon the laws of Hong Kong as in effect at the time such rulings were issued, and any subsequent changes in the relevant laws of Hong Kong may affect the validity of such rulings. PLDT reserves the right to change the rate at which it makes payments of withholding tax whenever it deems it appropriate under applicable law.

If the holder of Common Stock is a non-resident foreign partnership, which is treated as a corporation for Philippine tax purposes, dividends on the Common Stock should be subject to a final withholding tax of 30% effective January 1, 2009. Cede & Co., the partnership nominee of Depository Trust Company (DTC), should qualify as a non-resident foreign partnership that would be treated as a corporation for Philippine tax purposes.

In certain circumstances where the holder holds Common Stock, a tax treaty rate may be applicable with respect to the Philippine withholding tax. For instance, holders under such circumstances and as to which the Philippines-United States Tax Treaty would be applicable would be eligible for a treaty rate of 25% (or 20% in certain instances). The 20% treaty rate is generally not applicable in the case of non-resident non-Philippine corporations domiciled in the United States which own less than 10% of the voting stock of PLDT. Holders are required, however, to establish to the Philippine taxing authorities their eligibility for such treaty rate. Philippine tax authorities have prescribed, through an administrative issuance, procedures for availment of tax treaty relief. Provided that it complies with the procedures for availment of tax treaty relief, PLDT intends to pay withholding tax at the reduced treaty rate in respect of shares the registered holder of which is Cede & Co., on the basis that Cede & Co. is a resident of the United States for purposes of the Philippines-United States Tax Treaty. PLDT reserves the right to change the rate at which it makes payments of withholding tax whenever it deems it appropriate under applicable law.

Capital Gains Tax and Stock Transaction Tax

The Philippine Tax Code provides that gain from the sale of shares of stock in a Philippine corporation shall be treated as derived entirely from sources within the Philippines, regardless of where the shares are sold. Subject to applicable tax treaty rates, the rate of tax on such gain, where the share is not disposed of through the PSE, is a final tax (i.e., capital gains tax) of 5% for gains not exceeding Php100,000 and 10% for gains in excess of that amount, for a given taxable year. The rate is the same for both non-resident individuals and non-resident non-Philippine corporations. While this tax is not collected through withholding, the Philippine Tax Code prohibits a sale or transfer of shares of stock from being recorded in the Stock and Transfer Books of the corporation unless the Philippine Commissioner of Internal Revenue certifies that the tax has been paid or certain other conditions are met.

The sale of shares which are listed in and sold through the PSE are subject to the stock transaction tax imposed at the rate of 1/2 of 1% of the gross selling price. This tax is required to be collected and paid to the government by the selling stockbroker on behalf of his client. In a letter from the BIR dated December 28, 2010 and addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission, the BIR sets out the policy that, for tax purposes: (i) listed companies should continually maintain, if not surpass, their initial public ownership requirement in order to continually enjoy the preferential tax rate of 1/2 of 1% of the gross selling price of gross value on money arising from the disposal by the stockholders of their listed shares through the PSE; and (ii) failure of listed companies to do so exposes the stockholders selling their shares to the 5%/10% capital gains tax as these companies are no longer compliant with their “public ownership” status and will, thus, not be considered publicly-listed companies for taxation purposes. While such letter from the BIR provides that this new policy will be implemented beginning January 1, 2011, the BIR has not yet issued guidelines for its implementation.

Sales of shares other than through a Philippine stock exchange will be subject to Philippine capital gains tax in the manner described above.

##### Table of Contents

Under the Philippines-United States Tax Treaty, gains derived by a United States resident from the sale of shares of stock of a Philippine corporation will not be subject to capital gains tax (i.e., where the share is not disposed of through the PSE), unless the shares are those of a corporation of which over 50% of the assets (in terms of value) consist of real property interests located in the Philippines. PLDT does not believe that it currently is such a corporation. Holders are required, however, to establish to the Philippine taxing authorities their eligibility for such treaty exemption. Philippine tax authorities have prescribed, through an administrative issuance, procedures for availment of tax treaty relief.

Documentary Stamp Taxes

The Philippines imposes a documentary stamp tax upon transfers of shares of stock issued by a Philippine corporation at a rate of Php0.75 on each Php200, or fractional part thereof, of the par value of the shares. The documentary stamp tax is collectible wherever the document is made, signed, issued, accepted or transferred, when the obligation or right arises from Philippine sources or the property is situated in the Philippines. However, the sale, barter, transfer or exchange of shares of stock of a Philippine Corporation which is listed and traded through the facilities of the Philippine Stock Exchange is exempt from the document stamp tax.

Estate and Donor’s Taxes

Shares of stock issued by a corporation organized or constituted in accordance with Philippine law are deemed to have a Philippine situs and their transfer by way of succession or donation is subject to Philippine estate and gift taxes. The transfer of shares of stock by a deceased individual to his heirs by way of succession, whether such an individual was a citizen of the Philippines or an alien, regardless of residence, will be subject to Philippine estate tax at progressive rates ranging from 5% to 20% if the net estate is over Php200,000. Individual and corporate shareholders, whether or not citizens or residents of the Philippines, who transfer the Equity Securities by way of gift or donation will be liable for Philippine donor’s tax on such transfers at progressive rates ranging from 2% to 15%, if the net gifts made during the calendar year exceed Php100,000. The rate of tax with respect to net gifts made to a stranger, who is not a brother, sister, spouse, ancestor, lineal descendant or relative by consanguinity in the collateral line within the fourth degree of relationship of the donor, is a flat rate of 30%. Donations to or from corporations are considered donations from a stranger for donor’s tax purposes. Estate and gift taxes will not be collected in respect of intangible personal property such as the Equity Securities:

| • |  | if the deceased at the time of death, or the donor at the time of donation, was a citizen and resident of a foreign country which at the time of his death or donation did not impose a transfer tax of any character in respect of intangible personal property of citizens of the Philippines not residing in that foreign country, or

| • |  | if the laws of the foreign country of which the deceased or the donor was a citizen and resident at the time of his death or donation allow a similar exemption from transfer or death taxes of every character or description in respect of intangible personal property owned by citizens of the Philippines not residing in that foreign country.

Shares of stock of a deceased shareholder or shares that have been donated may not be transferred on the books of the corporation without a certificate from the Philippine Commissioner of Internal Revenue that the applicable estate or donor’s taxes have been paid. In the case of ADRs, however, there is no corresponding requirement, unless a transfer of the ADRs would also entail a change in the registration of the underlying shares.

United States Federal Taxation

In general, taking into account the earlier assumptions that each obligation of the Deposit Agreement and any related agreement will be performed according to its terms, for United States federal income tax purposes, if you hold ADRs evidencing ADSs, you will be treated as the owner of the shares represented by those ADRs. Exchanges of shares of Common Stock for ADRs, and ADRs for shares of Common Stock, generally will not be subject to United States federal income tax.

Taxation of Dividends

Under the United States federal income tax laws, and subject to the passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, rules discussed below, if you are a United States Holder, the gross amount of any dividend we pay out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for United States federal income tax purposes) is subject to United States federal income taxation. If you are a non-corporate United States Holder, dividends paid to you in

156

##### Table of Contents

taxable years beginning before January 1, 2013 that constitute qualified dividend income will be taxable to you at a maximum tax rate of 15% provided that, in the case of Common Stock or ADSs you hold the Common Stock or ADSs for more than 60 days during the 121-day period beginning 60 days before the ex-dividend date. Dividends we pay with respect to the Common Stock or ADSs generally will be qualified dividend income.

You must include any Philippine tax withheld from the dividend payment in this gross amount even though you do not in fact receive it. The dividend is taxable to you when you, in the case of Common Stock, or the Depositary, in the case of ADSs, receive the dividend, actually or constructively. The dividend will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction generally allowed to United States corporations in respect of dividends received from other United States corporations. The amount of the dividend distribution that you must include in your income as a United States Holder will be the U.S. dollar value of the Philippine peso payments made, determined at the spot Philippine peso/U.S. dollar rate on the date the dividend distribution is includible in your income, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars. Generally, any gain or loss resulting from currency exchange fluctuations during the period from the date you include the dividend payment in income to the date you convert the payment into U.S. dollars will be treated as ordinary income or loss and will not be eligible for the special tax rate applicable to qualified dividend income. The gain or loss generally will be income or loss from sources within the United States for foreign tax credit limitation purposes. Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits, as determined for United States federal income tax purposes, will be treated as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of your basis in the Common Stock or ADSs and thereafter as capital gain.

Subject to certain limitations, the Philippine tax withheld in accordance with the Philippines-United States Tax Treaty and paid over to the Philippines will be creditable or deductible against your United States federal income tax liability. Special rules apply in determining the foreign tax credit limitation with respect to dividends that are subject to the maximum 15% tax rate.

Dividends will be income from sources outside the United States. Dividends will, depending on your circumstances, be either “passive” or “general” income for purposes of computing the foreign tax credit allowable to you.

Sale or Other Disposition of Equity Securities

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below, a United States Holder will recognize capital gain or loss upon the sale of Common Stock or ADSs in an amount equal to the difference between such United States Holder’s basis in the Common Stock or ADSs and the amount realized upon the sale. Such gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if, at the time of sale, exchange or retirement, the Common Stock or ADSs have been held for more than one year. Capital gain of a non-corporate U.S. holder is generally taxed at preferential rates where the property is held for more than one year. Generally, any such gain or loss will be treated as realized income or loss from sources within the United States for foreign tax credit limitation purposes. United States Holders may not be eligible to credit against their United States federal income tax liability amounts paid in respect of the Philippine stock transaction tax. See “– Philippine Taxation – Capital Gains Tax and Stock Transaction Tax.”

The U.S. Tax Code does not authorize a comparable credit for foreign gift or donor’s taxes such as those imposed by the Philippines. See “– Philippine Taxation – Estate and Donor’s Taxes.”

Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules

We believe that the Common Stock or ADSs should not be treated as stock of a PFIC for United States federal income tax purposes, but this conclusion is a factual determination that is made annually and thus may be subject to change. If we were to be treated as a PFIC, unless the Common Stock or ADSs are “marketable stock” and a United States Holder elects to be taxed annually on a mark-to-market basis with respect to the Common Stock or ADSs, gain realized on the sale or other disposition of your Common Stock or ADSs would in general not be treated as capital gain. Instead, if you are a United States Holder, you would be treated as if you had realized such gain and certain “excess distributions” ratably over your holding period for the Common Stock or ADSs and would be taxed at the highest tax rate in effect for each such year to which the gain was allocated, together with an interest charge in respect of the tax attributable to each such year. In addition, dividends that you receive from us will not be eligible for the special tax rates applicable to qualified dividend income if we are a PFIC either in the taxable year of the distribution or the preceding taxable year, but instead will be taxable at rates applicable to ordinary income.

Item 11. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

The main risks arising from our financial instruments are liquidity risk, foreign currency exchange risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. The importance of managing those risks has significantly increased in light of the considerable change and volatility in both the Philippine and international financial markets. Our Board of Directors reviews and approves policies for managing each of these risks. Our policies for managing these risks are summarized below. We also monitor the market price risk arising from all financial instruments.

Liquidity Risk

We manage our liquidity profile to be able to finance our operations and capital expenditures, service our maturing debts and meet our other financial obligations. To cover our financing requirements, we use internally generated funds and proceeds from debt and equity issues and sales of certain assets.

As part of our liquidity risk management program, we regularly evaluate our projected and actual cash flows, including our loan maturity profiles, and continuously assess conditions in the financial markets for opportunities to pursue fund-raising initiatives. These activities may include bank loans, export credit agency-guaranteed facilities, debt capital and equity market issues.

Any excess funds are primarily invested in short-term and principal-protected bank products that provide flexibility of withdrawing the funds anytime. We also allocate a portion of our cash in longer tenor investments such as fixed income securities issued or guaranteed by the Republic of the Philippines, and Philippine banks and corporates, managed funds and other structured products linked to the Republic of the Philippines. We regularly evaluate available financial products and monitor market conditions for opportunities to enhance yields at acceptable risk levels. Our investments are also subject to certain restrictions contained in our debt covenants. Our funding arrangements are designed to keep an appropriate balance between equity and debt and to provide financing flexibility while enhancing our businesses.

We have letters of credit amounting to Php913 million as at December 31, 2011 and certain financial instruments that are allocated to meet our short-term liquidity needs. These financial instruments are cash and cash equivalents, and short-term investments amounting to Php46,057 million and Php558 million, respectively, as at December 31, 2011. See Note 15 – Cash and Cash Equivalents to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion. Details on our letters of credit and a summary of the maturity profile of our financial liabilities as at December 31, 2011 and 2010 based on contractual undiscounted payments is set out in Note 27 – Financial Assets and Liabilities to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

The revaluation of our foreign currency-denominated financial assets and liabilities as a result of the appreciation or depreciation of the Philippine peso is recognized as foreign exchange gains or losses as at the end of the reporting period. The extent of foreign exchange gains or losses is largely dependent on the amount of foreign currency debt. While a certain percentage of our revenues are either linked to or denominated in U.S. dollars, most of

158

##### Table of Contents

our indebtedness and related interest expense, a substantial portion of our capital expenditures and a portion of our operating expenses are denominated in foreign currencies, mostly in U.S. dollars. As such, a strengthening or weakening of the Philippine peso against the U.S. dollar will decrease or increase in Philippine peso terms both the principal amount of our foreign currency-denominated debts and the related interest expense, our foreign currency-denominated capital expenditures and operating expenses as well as our U.S. dollar-linked and U.S. dollar-denominated revenues. In addition, many of our financial ratios and other financial tests are affected by the movements in the Philippine peso to U.S. dollar exchange rate.

To manage our foreign exchange risks and to stabilize our cash flows in order to improve investment and cash flow planning, we enter into forward foreign exchange contracts, currency swap contracts, currency option contracts and other hedging products aimed at reducing and/or managing the adverse impact of changes in foreign exchange rates on our operating results and cash flows. We use forward foreign exchange purchase contracts, currency swap contracts and foreign currency option contracts to manage the foreign currency risks associated with our foreign currency-denominated loans. We also enter into forward foreign exchange sale contracts to manage foreign currency risks associated with our U.S. dollar-linked and U.S. dollar-denominated revenues. In order to manage the hedge costs of these contracts, we utilize structures that include credit-linkage with PLDT as the reference entity, a combination of foreign currency option contracts, and fixed to floating coupon only swap contracts. We accounted for these instruments as either cash flow hedges, wherein changes in the fair value are recognized as cumulative translation adjustments in other comprehensive income until the hedged transaction affects our consolidated income statement or when the hedging instrument expires, or transactions not designated as hedges, wherein changes in the fair value are recognized directly as income or expense for the year.

The following table shows our consolidated foreign currency-denominated monetary financial assets and liabilities and their Philippine peso equivalents as at December 31, 2011 and 2010:

(1) | The exchange rate used to translate the U.S. dollar amounts into Philippine peso was Php43.92 to US$1.00, the Philippine peso-dollar exchange rate as quoted through the Philippine Dealing System as at December 31, 2011.

(2) | The exchange rate used to translate the U.S. dollar amounts into Philippine peso was Php43.81 to US$1.00, the Philippine peso-dollar exchange rate as quoted through the Philippine Dealing System as at December 31, 2010.

As at March 6, 2012, the Philippine peso-U.S. dollar exchange rate was Php42.82 to US$1.00. Using this exchange rate, our consolidated net foreign currency-denominated financial liabilities would have decreased in Philippine peso terms by Php1,377 million as at December 31, 2011.

Approximately 47% and 43% of our total consolidated debts (net of consolidated debt discount) were denominated in U.S. dollars as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Consolidated foreign currency-denominated debt decreased to Php53,329 million as at December 31, 2011 from Php38,414 million as at December 31, 2010.

##### Table of Contents

See Note 20 – Interest-bearing Financial Liabilities to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion. The aggregate notional amount of PLDT’s outstanding long-term principal only-currency swap contracts were US$262 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010. Consequently, the unhedged portion of our consolidated debt amounts was approximately 37% (or 30%, net of our consolidated U.S. dollar cash balances) and 30% (or 23%, net of our consolidated U.S. dollar cash balances) as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Approximately, 30% of our consolidated service revenues were denominated in U.S. dollars and/or were linked to U.S. dollars for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared with approximately 30% and 32% for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. In this respect, the appreciation of the weighted average exchange rate of the Philippine peso against the U.S. dollar decreased our revenues, and consequently, our cash flow from operations in Philippine peso terms.

The Philippine peso had depreciated by 0.25% against the U.S. dollar to Php43.92 to US$1.00 as at December 31, 2011 from Php43.81 to US$1.00 as at December 31, 2010. As at December 31, 2010, the Philippine peso had appreciated by 5.64% against the U.S. dollar to Php43.81 to US$1.00 from Php46.43 to US$1.00 as at December 31, 2009. As a result of our consolidated foreign exchange movements as well as the amount of our consolidated outstanding net foreign currency financial assets and liabilities, we recognized net consolidated foreign exchange losses of Php744 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, while we recognized net consolidated foreign exchange gains of Php1,807 million and Php909 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Management conducted a survey among our banks to determine the outlook of the Philippine peso-U.S. dollar exchange rate until our next reporting date of December 31, 2012. Our outlook is that the Philippine peso-U.S. dollar exchange rate may weaken/strengthen by 5.05% as compared to the exchange rate of Php43.92 to US$1.00 as at December 31, 2011. If the Philippine peso-U.S. dollar exchange rate had weakened/strengthened by 5.05% as at December 31, 2011, with all other variables held constant, profit after tax for the year end 2011 would have been approximately Php1,630 million higher/lower and our consolidated stockholders’ equity as at year end 2011 would have been approximately Php1,609 million higher/lower, mainly as a result of consolidated foreign exchange gains and losses on translation of U.S. dollar-denominated net assets/liabilities and mark-to-market valuation of derivative financial instruments. If the Philippine peso-U.S. dollar exchange rate had weakened/strengthened by 5.27% as at December 31, 2010, with all other variables held constant, profit after tax for the year 2010 would have been approximately Php1,099 million higher/lower and our consolidated stockholders’ equity as at year end 2010 would have been approximately Php1,089 million higher/lower, mainly as a result of consolidated foreign exchange gains and losses on translation of U.S. dollar-denominated net assets/liabilities and mark-to-market valuation of derivative financial instruments.

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to our long-term debt obligations and short-term borrowings with floating interest rates.

Our policy is to manage interest cost through a mix of fixed and variable rate debts. We evaluate the fixed to floating ratio of our loans in line with movements of relevant interest rates in the financial markets. Based on our assessment, new financing will be priced either on a fixed or floating rate basis. On a limited basis, we enter into interest rate swap agreements in order to manage our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. We make use of hedging instruments and structures solely for reducing or managing financial risk associated with our liabilities and not for trading purposes.

Fixed rate financial instruments are subject to fair value interest rate risk while floating rate financial instruments are subject to cash flow interest rate risk.

Repricing of floating rate financial instruments is mostly done on intervals of three months or six months. Interest on fixed rate financial instruments is fixed until maturity of the particular instrument.

Management conducted a survey among our banks to determine the outlook of the U.S. dollar and Philippine peso interest rates until our next reporting date of December 31, 2012. Our outlook is that the U.S. dollar and Philippine peso interest rates may move 5 basis points and 100 basis points higher/lower, respectively, as compared to levels as at December 31, 2011. If U.S. dollar interest rates had been 5 basis points higher/lower as compared to market levels as at December 31, 2011, with all other variables held constant, profit after tax for the year and our consolidated stockholders’ equity as at year end 2011 would have been approximately Php25 million lower/higher, mainly as a result of higher/lower interest expense on floating rate borrowings and loss/gain on derivative transactions. If Philippine peso interest rates had been 100 basis points higher/lower as compared to market levels as at December 31, 2011, with all other variables held constant, profit after tax for the year and our consolidated stockholders’ equity as at year end 2011 would have been approximately Php317 million lower/higher, mainly as a result of higher/lower interest expense on floating rate borrowings and loss/gain on derivative transactions. If U.S.

dollar interest rates had been 15 basis points higher/lower as compared to market levels as at December 31, 2010, with all other variables held constant, profit after tax for the year and our consolidated stockholders’ equity as at year end 2010 would have been approximately Php56 million lower/higher, mainly as a result of higher/lower interest expense on floating rate borrowings and loss/gain on derivative transactions. If Philippine peso interest rates had been 220 basis points higher/lower as compared to market levels as at December 31, 2010, with all other variables held constant, profit after tax for the year and our consolidated stockholders’ equity as at year end 2010 would have been approximately Php785 million lower/higher, mainly as a result of higher/lower interest expense on floating rate borrowings and loss/gain on derivative transactions.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk that we will incur a loss arising from our customers, clients or counterparties that fail to discharge their contracted obligations. We manage and control credit risk by setting limits on the amount of risk we are willing to accept for individual counterparties and by monitoring exposures in relation to such limits.

We trade only with recognized and creditworthy third parties. It is our policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an on-going basis to reduce our exposure to bad debts.

We established a credit quality review process to provide regular identification of changes in the creditworthiness of counterparties. Counterparty limits are established and reviewed periodically based on latest available financial data on our counterparties’ credit ratings, capitalization, asset quality and liquidity. Our credit quality review process allows us to assess the potential loss as a result of the risks to which we are exposed and allow us to take corrective actions.

The table below shows the maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of our consolidated statement of financial position, including derivative financial instruments as at December 31, 2011 and 2010:

Impairment Assessments

The main consideration for the impairment assessment include whether any payments of principal or interest are overdue by more than 90 days or whether there are any known difficulties in the cash flows of counterparties, credit rating downgrades, or infringement of the original terms of the contract. Our impairment assessments are classified into two areas: individually assessed allowance and collectively assessed allowances.

Individually assessed allowance

We determine the allowance appropriate for each individually significant loan or advance on an individual basis. Items considered when determining allowance amounts include the sustainability of the counterparty’s business plan, its ability to improve performance once a financial difficulty has arisen, projected receipts and the expected dividend payout should bankruptcy ensue, the availability of other financial support, the realizable value of collateral, if any, and the timing of the expected cash flows. The impairment losses are evaluated at each reporting date, unless unforeseen circumstances require more careful attention.

Collectively assessed allowances

Allowances are assessed collectively for losses on loans and advances that are not individually significant and for individually significant loans and advances where there is no objective evidence of individual impairment. Allowances are evaluated on each reporting date with each portfolio receiving a separate review.

The collective assessment takes account of impairment that is likely to be present in the portfolio even though there is no objective evidence of the impairment in an individual assessment. Impairment losses are estimated by taking into consideration the following information: historical losses on the portfolio, current economic conditions, the approximate delay between the time a loss is likely to have been incurred and the time it is identified as requiring an individually assessed impairment allowance, and expected receipts and recoveries once impaired. The impairment allowance is then reviewed by credit management to ensure alignment with our policy.

Capital Management Risk

We aim to achieve an optimal capital structure in pursuit of our business objectives which include maintaining healthy capital ratios and strong credit ratings, and maximizing shareholder value.

In recent years, our cash flow from operations has allowed us to substantially reduce debts and, in 2005, resume payment of dividends on common shares. Since 2005, our strong cash flow has enabled us to make investments in new areas and pay higher dividends.

Our approach to capital management focuses on balancing the allocation of cash and the incurrence of debt as we seek new investment opportunities for new businesses and growth areas. Our current dividend policy is to pay out 70% of our core income per common share. Further, in the event no investment opportunities arise, we may consider the option of returning additional cash to our shareholders in the form of special dividends or share buybacks. Philippine corporate regulations prescribe, however, that we can only pay out dividends or make capital distribution up to the amount of our unrestricted retained earnings.

As part of our goal to maximize returns to our shareholders, we obtained in 2008 an approval from the Board of Directors to conduct a share buyback program for up to five million PLDT common shares. According to the share buyback program, as at December 31, 2011, we acquired a total of approximately 2.72 million shares of PLDT’s common stock for a total consideration of Php6,505 million, representing approximately 1% of PLDT’s outstanding shares of common stock, at a weighted average price of Php2,388 per share. See Note 8 – Earnings Per Common Share and Note 19 – Equity to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 18 for further discussion.

Some of our debt instruments contain covenants that impose maximum leverage ratios. In addition, our credit ratings from the international credit ratings agencies are based on our ability to remain within certain leverage ratios.

We monitor capital using several financial leverage measurements calculated in conformity with PFRS, such as net consolidated debt to equity ratio. Net consolidated debt is derived by deducting cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments from total debt (long-term debt and notes payable). Our objective is to maintain our net consolidated debt to equity ratio below 100%.

The table below provides information regarding our consolidated debt to equity ratio as at December 31, 2011 and 2010:

|  | 2011 |  |  | 2010 |

Long-term debt, including current portion (Note 20) |  |  | Php114,166 |  |  |  | Php89,646 |

None.

Item 14. | Material Modifications to the Rights of Security Holders and Use of Proceeds

None.

Item 15. | Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, carried out an evaluation on the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as at December 31, 2011. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as at December 31, 2011.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed and implemented under the supervision of our principal executive officers and principal finance officers, in order to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”). Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the PLDT Group; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS, and that receipts and expenditures of the PLDT Group are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and board of directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of any unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to consolidated financial statement preparation and presentation, and may not prevent of detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of the PLDT Group’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control – Integrated Framework by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on this assessment, our management has determined that the internal control over financial reporting of the PLDT Group was effective as of December 31, 2011.

On October 26, 2011, we completed the acquisition of Digitel. Our assessment of the effectiveness of the PLDT Group’s internal control over financial reporting as at December 31, 2011 excluded the internal control of Digitel, whose financial statements are consolidated in the 2011 consolidated financial statements of the PLDT Group. This exclusion was made in accordance with SEC guidance that an assessment of internal control of a recently acquired business may be omitted in management’s report on internal control over financial reporting. Digitel constituted 29% of total consolidated assets as at December 31, 2011, and 2% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2011.

We reviewed the results of management’s assessment with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

SyCip, Gorres, Velayo & Co. (“SGV”, a member practice of the Ernst & Young Global), an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report and has issued an attestation report on our internal control over financial reporting as at December 31, 2011. This attestation report is dated March 22, 2012 and is set forth in Item 18 “Financial Statements”.

##### Table of Contents

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. During 2011, no change to our internal control over financial reporting occurred that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 16A. Audit Committee Financial Expert

Our board of directors has determined that currently none of the members of the Audit Committee is an audit committee financial expert as defined under the applicable rules of the U.S. SEC issued pursuant to Section 407 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Because our board of directors believes that the audit committee members along with its advisors, possess sufficient financial knowledge and experience, our board of directors has not separately appointed an audit committee member who qualifies as an audit committee financial expert. Our board of directors has appointed Ms. Corazon de la Paz-Bernardo, a former member of our board of directors, as Audit Committee advisor to render advice on complex financial reporting or accounting issues that may be raised in our Audit Committee’s evaluation of our financial statements and other related matters. Formerly the Chairman and a Senior Partner of Joaquin Cunanan & Company, now Isla Lipana & Co., and a member firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers Worldwide, Ms. Corazon de la Paz-Bernardo is a certified public accountant and possesses in-depth knowledge of accounting principles (including IFRS), internal controls and procedures for financial reporting and audit committee functions, as well as extensive experience in overseeing or actively supervising the preparation, audit, analysis or evaluation of financial statements and in addressing complex and general financial reporting, accounting and audit issues.

Item 16B. Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

PLDT has long committed itself to very high standards of corporate performance in order to achieve sustained growth and profitability and create value for its shareholders and stakeholders. It is a commitment that, in turn, demands adherence to the highest corporate governance standards and practices. Inasmuch as PLDT is a public company and its common shares are listed in the PSE, while its American Depositary Shares are listed in the New York Stock Exchange, PLDT finds itself in the unique position of being the only telecommunication company in the Philippines that is subject to, and must comply with, the corporate governance requirements of both the Philippines and the United States. These requirements are set forth under various laws, rules, and regulatory issuances, including the Philippine Revised Code of Corporate Governance, the PSE Corporate Governance Guidelines, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Dodd-Frank Act and the New York Stock Exchange Listing Rules. In addition, PLDT as an associated company of First Pacific Company Ltd., which is listed in the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, also looks to the corporate governance standards of Hong Kong for guidance and benchmarking purposes.

PLDT continues to benchmark against recognized international best practices and monitor developments in corporate governance in order to elevate the Company’s CG structures, processes, and practices to global standards. Most importantly, it is endeavoring to venture beyond compliance and promote an ethical corporate culture guided by the principles of accountability, integrity, fairness and transparency.

A. | Code of Ethics and Other Policies

The Code of Ethics was approved by the Board on March 30, 2004 and subsequently updated on July 11, 2006, the Code of Ethics sets out the Company’s business principles and values, which aim to promote a culture of good corporate governance. It provides standards that govern and guide all business relationships of PLDT, its directors, officers and employees, especially with respect to the following:

| • |  | Compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations;

| • |  | Ethical handling of conflicts of interest, corporate opportunities and confidential information;

| • |  | Protection and proper use of company assets;

| • |  | Fair dealing with employees, customers, service providers, suppliers, and competitors;

| • |  | Compliance with reporting and disclosure obligations to the relevant regulators and to investors;

| • |  | Compliance with disclosure and financial reporting controls and procedures;

| • |  | Assessment and management of risks involved in business endeavors; and

| • |  | Adoption of international best practices of good corporate governance in the conduct of the Company’s business.

169

##### Table of Contents

The Code of Ethics undergoes a mandatory review process every two years. The latest review was in October 2010. The review revealed that the Code is appropriate for the Company and compliant with the applicable laws, regulations and listing standards and that no revision was needed at that time. The GNC approved the review on November 2010.

Other policies

The Company also has other policies adopted by the Board to provide both general and specific guidelines that complement the Code of Ethics.

| (a) | CG Manual – The PLDT CG Manual was approved and adopted by the Board of Directors on March 26, 2010 pursuant to SEC Memorandum Circular No. 6 Series of 2009 or the Revised Code of Corporate Governance. It supersedes the CG Manual approved and adopted on September 24, 2002, as amended on March 30, 2004 and January 30, 2007. The structures and processes set forth in the CG Manual, as well as the Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws, combined with the Company’s commitment to the principles of transparency, accountability, fairness and integrity, form PLDT’s basic framework of governance by which our Board of Directors, officers, executives and employees strive to achieve the Company’s strategic objectives, create value for all its stakeholders, and sustain its long-term viability.

In compliance with the Revised Code of Corporate Governance of the Philippine SEC and consistent with the relevant provisions of the SRC and Corporation Code of the Philippines, our CG Manual covers the following key areas:

| • |  | the composition of our Board of Directors as well as the qualifications and grounds for disqualification for directorship;

| • |  | the requirement that at least 20% of the membership of the Board of Directors, and in no case less than two members, must be independent directors and the standards/criteria for the determination of independent directors;

| • |  | the duties and responsibilities of our board of directors and the individual directors;

| • |  | the manner of conduct of Board meetings including the requirement to have an independent director present in every meeting to promote transparency and the need to have an executive session for non-executive and independent directors;

| • |  | establishment of board committees, specifically, the Audit Committee, Executive Compensation Committee, and the Governance and Nomination Committee, including the composition and the principal duties and responsibilities of such committees, as well as the requirement for each board committee to have its own charter;

| • |  | the role of the Chairman as the leader of the Board and as the prime mover in ensuring compliance with, and the performance of, corporate governance policies and practices;

| • |  | the role of the President/Chief Executive Officer in ensuring that the Company’s business affairs are managed in a sound and prudent manner and that operational, financial and internal controls are adequate and effective to ensure reliability and integrity of financial and operational information, effectiveness and efficiency of operations, safeguarding of assets and compliance with laws, rules, regulations and contracts;

| • |  | the duties and responsibilities of the Corporate Secretary/Assistant Corporate Secretary in terms of the support services that they need to provide the Board in upholding sound corporate governance;

| • |  | the duties and responsibilities of the head of internal audit organization that would provide the Board of Directors, management and shareholders with reasonable assurance that the Company’s key organizational and procedural controls are appropriate, adequate, effective and reasonably complied with;

| • |  | the establishment of an appropriate evaluation system for purposes of monitoring and assessing compliance with the CG Manual and other applicable laws and administrative issuances.

| (b) | Conflict of Interest Policy approved on October 24, 2005. This Policy aims to ensure that work-related actions of PLDT’s directors, officers, employees and consultants are based on sound business principles and judgment devoid of bias or partiality. It enjoins all employees to be aware of the possibility of such bias and partiality in dealings with various entities or individuals in the course of or in relation to their work. The policy likewise mandates that employees who find themselves in a possible conflict of interest situation should promptly disclose the matter to the relevant authorities. If warranted, the employee concerned should also obtain appropriate approvals and inhibit himself from any action, transaction or decision involving an existing or potential conflict of interest.

| (c) | Policy on Gifts, Entertainment and Sponsored Travel approved on January 31, 2006. This policy provides safeguards so that the custom of giving gifts is handled in accordance with the principles of integrity, accountability, fairness and transparency. It aims to prevent the occurrence of situations or actions that could significantly affect objective, independent or effective performance of an employee’s duties. Specifically, it prohibits the solicitation of gifts, sponsored travel, and entertainment from third parties. Receipt and acceptance of gifts voluntarily given by such third parties are handled according to this policy as well.

| (d) | Supplier/Contractor Relations Policy approved on January 31, 2006. This Policy seeks to ensure that the Company upholds the highest professional standards in business practices and ethics in its dealings with suppliers and contractors in the procurement of goods and services. The policy also seeks to maintain PLDT’s reputation for equal opportunity and honest treatment of suppliers in all business transactions. The policy establishes clear rules for arm’s length transactions and fair treatment of prospective and existing suppliers with the objective of always obtaining the best value for the company.

| (e) | Policy on Employee Disclosure on Violations of the Corporate Governance Rules, Questionable Accounting or Auditing Matters, and Offenses covered by PLDT’s Table of Penalties (or the Expanded Whistleblowing Policy) approved on May 9, 2006. This policy provides guidelines on handling employee disclosure or complaints of violation of rules pertaining to the aforestated matters, protects whistleblowers from retaliation and ensures confidentiality and fairness in the handling of a disclosure or complaint.

In 2011, Policy on Gifts, Entertainment and Sponsored Travel, the Supplier/Contractor Relations Policy, and the Expanded Whistleblowing Policy were reviewed by the corporate governance office and the GNC and were found to be adequate and compliant and did not require any amendment.

Detailed implementing guidelines are likewise issued for the said policies to ensure their wide observance. All these policies and rules (collectively, the Corporate Governance, or CG Rules) are periodically reviewed to ensure that they are appropriate for PLDT, keep pace with comparable and applicable global best practices, and are compliant with the requirements of the Philippine and U.S. SEC, NYSE and Hong Kong Stock Exchange corporate governance rules, as may be appropriate and applicable.

Our subsidiaries and their respective subsidiaries have also adopted corporate governance rules and policies similar in substance and form to PLDT’s CG Rules, as well as appointed their respective corporate governance officers.

Pursuant to the Conflict of Interest Policy, PLDT officers, executives and employees are required to submit Conflict of Interest Disclosures. If a transaction is affected by conflict of interest, it is subject to approval by the appropriate approving authorities and the conflicted director, officer, executive or employee is prohibited from participating in any activity related to the said transaction. PLDT is progressively institutionalizing the practice of timely and transparent disclosures down to the level of rank and file employees. Our suppliers, vendors and contractors are also required to make disclosures with respect to relationships and affiliations that they or their personnel may have with respect to PLDT directors, officers, executives and employees.

PLDT’s Expanded Whistleblowing Policy facilitates the anonymous reporting of violations of the CG Policies, accounting and auditing rules and regulations or the PLDT Personnel Manual. PLDT maintains a Whistleblowing Hotline and other reporting facilities, such as a dedicated electronic mailbox, post office box, and facsimile transmission system. All employees and stakeholders who come forward in good faith, regardless of rank or status, to report any of the violations mentioned above or any act that may be considered as contrary to the Company’s values of accountability, integrity, fairness and transparency may submit a complaint or disclosure on such violations. Upon receipt by the Chief Governance Officer or the CGO, a preliminary evaluation is conducted to determine the appropriate investigating unit to which the case shall be assigned for further action. The CGO monitors the cases reported and ensures appropriate reporting to the Audit Committee, GNC, or any other relevant committee or body on the results of the investigations and the prompt referrals of findings to the units concerned. The Company’s committees on officer or employee discipline, as the case may be, are responsible for evaluating and approving the appropriate disciplinary action against erring officers and employees. In all processes and activities related to a whistleblowing complaint or disclosure, utmost confidentiality is observed in order to ensure the integrity of the process and/or protect the parties or offices who may be involved.

In line with all of these, PLDT has incorporated corporate governance standards in performance evaluation of personnel and has included corporate governance policy violations as a cause for disqualification in incentives and rewards in its Policy on Employee Qualification for Incentives and Rewards.

To make sure that relations between the Company and its business partners are imbued with shared standards on good corporate governance, the Company has developed written corporate governance guidelines for suppliers and contractors to which the Company’s suppliers and contractors are expected to consent in writing, thereby ensuring that they understand and accept these standards as indispensable in doing business with PLDT. The Company also conducts suppliers’/contractors’ briefings and communicates to its business partners, including suppliers, the Company’s commitment to, as well as expectations on, good corporate governance.

B. | Enhancements and Education

As part of its education and communication program, PLDT provides continuous training for its Board and senior management. PLDT has organized and conducted five corporate governance enhancement sessions since 2007 and has invited internationally-known experts to share their insights and interact with PLDT’s Board and senior management.

172

##### Table of Contents

In 2011, the Board of Directors had a lively discussion with Mr. Steven John Priest, the founder of the Ethical Leadership Group and is now Senior Advisor of Global Compliance Services, Inc., a leading ethics and corporate compliance consultancy based in Charlotte, North Carolina, USA, on the topic Performance, Principles and People. Mr. Priest talked about Board responsibilities in the areas of governance and compliance risks, culture and leadership. He also discussed recent developments in relevant legislation and regulations in the United States and the United Kingdom, as well as emerging best practices on governance, ethics and compliance, with focus on directors’ qualifications and independence, executive compensation, and succession planning.

Mr. Priest also conducted a briefing for PLDT’s senior management entitled, Performance, Principles and People: A Discussion with PLDT Group Leaders conducted on December 7, 2011 concerning the present environment that businesses face, the risks that confront business organizations, the appropriate culture that companies need to adopt and establish, and the leadership demanded from people in positions of responsibility. 46 out of the 61 active members of PLDT senior management attended the session. In all, 57 out of the 61 active members of PLDT’s senior management have attended at least one corporate governance enhancement session.

PLDT also conducts training for its middle management. A special session for its executives was conducted by Mr. Keith Darcy, Executive Director of the Ethics and Compliance Officer Association (ECOA) based in Waltham, Massachusetts, USA. Mr. Darcy discussed The Role of Middle Management in Ethical Culture Building. Sixty-one (61) executives and officers of PLDT attended the session. In addition, newly promoted and hired executives are required to undergo a half-day workshop on Ethical Decision Making as part of their competency development as managers. The highly interactive course provides personnel in the middle manager category an opportunity to discuss and develop approaches to ethical dilemmas that confront them at the workplace.

For its supervisory and rank and file employees, PLDT conducted a Corporate Governance refresher course for selected divisions. A total of eight (8) Corporate Governance Refresher Sessions were conducted for the Information Systems Sector, which also held refresher courses for Information Systems Sector executives. The whole day seminar, entitled Educational Intervention on Ethical Compliance and Procurement Management, was a joint effort of the Corporate Governance Office together with the Procurement Management and Vendor Management Divisions of the Supply Chain, Asset Protection and Management Group.

PLDT also carried out a seminar developed specially for field service personnel entitled Values at Work. The module shows how the values of accountability, integrity, fairness and transparency can be employed as effective tools in the performance of duties and functions in the Company. The workshop at the same time seeks to affirm the participants’ commitment to PLDT’s core values.

Finally, PLDT requires newly-hired employees and executives to undergo a Corporate Governance Orientation.

In addition to face to face training, PLDT has on-line training modules for its employees. PLDT executives with the rank of manager, senior manager and assistant vice president have complied with the requirement to access and complete an online training course on the PLDT Expanded Whistleblowing Policy. Supervisory and rank and file employees, on the other hand, have taken and completed a module on the PLDT Conflict of Interest Policy, where more than 99% of the target learners as at the end of 2011 is in compliance with both online modules.

Education and training is supplemented by the production and dissemination of relevant corporate governance communication materials, including thematic posters, calendars and newsletters. Directors and certain officers and executives of PLDT are also provided with weekly Corporate Governance Newsbriefs, which contain summaries of news articles from global online sources. Periodic advisories on corporate governance policies are also issued.

C. | Performance Evaluation

PLDT Directors take part in an annual assessment process whereby they are able to review and evaluate the performance of the whole Board, the Board Committees and the individuals that comprise these bodies. The assessment includes an opportunity to evaluate the performance of the CEO. This process has proven to be useful in identifying the Board’s strengths and areas for improvement, and eliciting individual Directors’ feedback and views on the Company’s strategies, performance and future direction.

D. | Governance Structures

Board of Directors

Critical and central to the effectiveness of governance in the company is the quality of service and stewardship rendered by the PLDT Board of Directors. In the Board, as well as in the individual Directors, is lodged the principal responsibility for good governance and principled performance – as leaders, enablers and enforcers of good corporate governance practices.

Our Board of Directors is composed of thirteen (13) qualified and competent individuals, each highly regarded in their own fields, who bring together complementary skills and expertise, and the requisite independence and probity and diligence in the exercise of their fiduciary duties. Our board has three independent directors in Rev. Fr. Bievenido F. Nebres, S.J., Mr. Pedro E. Roxas and Mr. Alfred V. Ty who have been selected on the basis of specific independence criteria set out under applicable laws and rules, and in our By-Laws and CG Manual. The number of independent directors in the PLDT Board exceeds that required under the SRC and its implementing rules and regulations. A majority of the directors are non-executive directors and only three directors are at the same time company executives.

The position of Chairman of the Board is separate from that of the Chief Executive Officer. PLDT Chairman Manuel V. Pangilinan and PLDT President and CEO Napoleon L. Nazareno nonetheless share the responsibility of elevating good corporate governance and principled performance to a high strategic priority for the company.

President and Chief Executive Officer

The President and CEO provide leadership for management in developing and implementing business strategies, plans and budgets. More importantly, however, he ensures that the business and affairs of the Company are managed in a sound and prudent manner and operational, financial and internal controls are adequate and effective to ensure reliability and integrity of financial and operational information, effectiveness and efficiency of operations, safeguarding of assets and compliance with laws, rules, regulations and contracts. The President and CEO, with the assistance of the rest of PLDT’s management, also has the responsibility to provide the Board with a balanced, understandable and accurate account of the Company’s performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, on a regular basis.

Internal Audit Organization

We have an internal audit organization that determines whether our network or risk management, control and governance processes are adequate and functioning to ensure that:

| 1. | Risks are appropriately identified and managed;

| 2. | Significant financial, managerial, and operating information are accurate, reliable and timely;

| 3. | Employees’ actions are in compliance with policies, standards, procedures, and applicable laws and regulations;

| 4. | Resources are acquired economically, used efficiently and adequately protected;

| 5. | Programs, plans and objectives are achieved;

| 6. | Quality and continuous improvement are fostered in our control process;

| 7. | Significant legislative or regulatory issues impacting us are recognized and addressed appropriately; and

| 8. | Interaction with various governance groups occurs, as needed.

174

##### Table of Contents

To ensure independence, the head of our internal audit organization reports functionally to our Audit Committee and administratively to our President and Chief Executive Officer. He is accountable to management and our Audit Committee in the discharge of his duties and is required to:

| 2. | Report significant issues related to the processes of controlling our activities, including potential improvements to those processes, and provide information concerning such issues;

| 3. | Periodically provide information on the status and results of the annual audit plan and the sufficiency of our internal audit organization’s resources; and

| 4. | Coordinate with and provide oversight of other control and monitoring functions (risk management, compliance, security, legal, ethics, environmental, external audit).

Our internal audit organization has a charter approved by our Audit Committee which seeks to comply with the Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing of The Institute of Internal Auditors in the discharge of its scope of work and responsibilities.

Chief Governance Officer

Item 16C. Principal Accountant Fees and Services

The following table summarizes the fees paid or accrued for services rendered by our independent auditor for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010:

|  | 2011 |  |  | 2010 |
|  | (in millions) |
Audit Fees |  |  | Php44 |  |  |  | Php39 |
All Other Fees |  |  | 15 |  |  |  | 15 |
Total |  |  | Php59 |  |  |  | Php54 |

Audit Fees. This category includes the audit of our annual financial statements, review of interim financial statements and services that are normally provided by the independent auditor in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years.

Audit-Related Fees. Other than the audit fees, we did not have any other audit-related fees for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.

Tax Fees. We did not have any tax fees for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.

All Other Fees. This category consists primarily of fees with respect to our Sarbanes-Oxley Act 404 assessment, certain projects and out-of-pocket and incidental expenses.

The fees presented above include out-of-pocket expenses incidental to our independent auditors’ work, the amount of which do not exceed 5% of the agreed-upon engagement fees.

Our audit committee pre-approved all audit and non-audit services as these are proposed or endorsed before these services are performed by our independent auditors.

Audit Committee’s Pre-approval of Policies and Procedures

Audit Committee pre-approval of services rendered by our independent auditor follows:

| • |  | The Audit Committee has adopted a policy for pre-approval of audit, audit-related and permitted non-audit services to be rendered by our independent auditor, that should be interpreted in conjunction with our policy on auditor independence.

| • |  | The Audit Committee does not engage our independent auditor for “prohibited services” at any point during the audit and professional engagement period.

| • |  | To ensure the prompt handling of unexempted matters, the Audit Committee may delegate its authority to specifically pre-approve services to one or more of its members. The member(s) to whom such authority is delegated must report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.

| • |  | The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, setting of compensation, retention, removal and oversight of the work of our independent auditor.

Item 16G. Corporate Governance

PLDT is a Philippine company with its shares of common stock listed on the PSE and ADSs listed on the NYSE. As a foreign private issuer, PLDT is permitted under the NYSE listing standards to follow Philippine corporate governance practices on most corporate governance matters, and, accordingly, PLDT complies with the Philippine SEC Governance Code in respect of its corporate governance practices as well as with the NYSE listing standards applicable to foreign private issuers. PLDT’s corporate governance practices are generally consistent with the NYSE listing standards, except that PLDT’s corporate governance practices differ from U.S. companies under the NYSE listing standards in the significant ways summarized below.

• |  | Number of Independent Directors. The NYSE listing standards require a majority of the board of directors to be independent. We have three independent directors out of 13 directors (23%), which exceeds the requirements under the Philippine SEC Governance Code that at least two members or 20% of the board of directors must be independent.

• |  | Director Independence Tests. There are differences between the director independence tests applied in PLDT’s corporate governance practice and those under the NYSE listing standards. In some cases, the independence tests set forth in the NYSE listing standards are more stringent than those under PLDT’s corporate governance practice and vice versa.

| • |  | Examples where the NYSE listing standards impose more stringent standards than PLDT’s corporate governance practices include the “auditor affiliation” test. In contrast to the NYSE listing standards, under PLDT’s By-Laws and Board Committee charters, present or previous affiliation or employment of a director’s immediate family member with the external auditors, or a director’s past or present affiliation with a firm that is PLDT’s internal auditor do not preclude a determination that such director is independent.

| • |  | Examples where PLDT’s corporate governance practices impose more stringent standards than NYSE listing standards include the look back periods for the independence tests and the “material relationship with the listed company” test. The look back period for each of the “past employment” and the “auditor affiliation” tests under PLDT’s corporate governance practices is five years compared to three years under the NYSE listing standards. Furthermore, in respect of material relationships that preclude an independence finding, PLDT’s Corporate Governance Manual provides that a director who is, or whose relative is, a substantial shareholder of PLDT, any of its related companies or any of its substantial shareholders cannot be considered as independent.

• |  | Meetings of non-management/independent directors. The NYSE listing standards require regularly scheduled executive sessions consisting of non-management directors without management present or regularly scheduled executive sessions consisting of only independent directors. As part of the Board assessment process formally adopted by the GNC, PLDT’s independent directors and/or non-management directors hold meetings at least once a year to, among other things, discuss and evaluate the results of the Board’s annual self-assessment. In addition, while PLDT’s Corporate Governance Manual does not mandate the holding of regularly scheduled executive sessions with non-management directors nor executive sessions with only independent directors, PLDT’s independent and/or non-management directors, through the Audit Committee and the GNC, in either or both of which all independent directors and most non-management directors are serving as members or advisors, are provided the opportunity to have open discussions, whether individually or as a group, without the presence of management/executive directors.

• |  | Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee and Compensation Committee. The NYSE listing standards require a listed company to maintain a nominating/corporate governance committee and a compensation committee, both composed entirely of independent directors. Our GNC and our ECC is each composed of five voting members, a majority of whom are independent directors, which exceeds the requirements under the Philippine SEC Governance Code that one of the at least three voting members of the nominating/corporate governance committee and one of the at least three members of the compensation committee must be independent.

• |  | Audit Committee. As required by NYSE listing standards, PLDT maintains an audit committee in full compliance with Rule 10A-3 promulgated under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 303A.06 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. All of the members of PLDT’s Audit Committee are independent directors meeting the independence requirements of Rule 10A-3 as well as those under Section 303A.07 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, except in those areas where our independence tests under the Philippine SEC Governance Code differ from those under the NYSE listing standards, as discussed above.

As provided for in our audit committee charter, as amended, any member of the audit committee may cause the Audit Committee advisor to be excluded from the committee’s meetings, as such member deems appropriate in order for the committee to carry out its responsibilities, until the committee has completed discussion of the topic for which the member requested the Audit Committee advisor to be excluded or until such member has withdrawn its request.

The differences between our corporate governance practices and the NYSE listing standards is set forth on our website at: http://www.pldt.com.ph/governance/Documents/NYSE-PLDT_CG-DISC303A%2011_2010.pdf.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and the Stockholders

Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company

We have audited Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company and subsidiaries’ (collectively referred to as “PLDT Group”) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). The PLDT Group’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the PLDT Group’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by International Accounting Standards Board. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

As indicated in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting excluded the internal control of Digital Telecommunications Phils., Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Digitel”), whose financial statements are consolidated in the 2011 consolidated financial statements of the PLDT Group. The PLDT Group acquired Digitel in October 2011, and as at December 31, 2011, Digitel constituted 29% of total consolidated assets and 2% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2011. Accordingly, our audit of internal control over financial reporting of the PLDT Group did not include an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of Digitel.

In our opinion, the PLDT Group maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated statements of financial position of the PLDT Group as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated income statements, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity, and consolidated statements of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011, and our report dated March 22, 2012 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and the Stockholders

Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company and Subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “PLDT Group”) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated income statements, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity, and consolidated statements of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the PLDT Group’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the PLDT Group at December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the consolidated financial performance and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the 2010 and 2009 consolidated income statements have been restated to present outbound revenue on a gross basis to more correctly present and align the PLDT Group’s accounting policy with the predominant global practice in the telecommunication industry.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the PLDT Group’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 22, 2012 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

PHILIPPINE LONG DISTANCE TELEPHONE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. | Corporate Information

The Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company, or PLDT, or Parent Company, was incorporated under the old Corporation Law of the Philippines (Act 1459, as amended) on November 28, 1928, following the merger of four telephone companies under common U.S. ownership. Under its amended Articles of Incorporation, PLDT’s corporate term is currently limited through 2028. In 1967, effective control of PLDT was sold by the General Telephone and Electronics Corporation, then a major shareholder since PLDT’s incorporation, to a group of Filipino businessmen. In 1981, in furtherance of the then existing policy of the Philippine government to integrate the Philippine telecommunications industry, PLDT purchased substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the Republic Telephone Company, which at that time was the second largest telephone company in the Philippines. In 1998, certain subsidiaries of First Pacific Company Limited, or First Pacific, and its Philippine affiliates (collectively the First Pacific Group and its Philippine affiliates), acquired a significant interest in PLDT. On March 24, 2000, NTT Communications Corporation, or NTT Communications, through its wholly-owned subsidiary NTT Communications Capital (UK) Ltd., or NTTC-UK, became PLDT’s strategic partner with approximately 15% economic and voting interest in the issued and outstanding common stock of PLDT at that time. Simultaneous with NTT Communications’ investment in PLDT, the latter acquired 100% of Smart Communications, Inc., or Smart. On March 14, 2006, NTT DOCOMO, Inc., or NTT DOCOMO, acquired from NTT Communications approximately 7% of PLDT’s then outstanding common shares held by NTT Communications with NTT Communications retaining ownership of approximately 7% of PLDT’s common shares. Since March 14, 2006, NTT DOCOMO has made additional purchases of shares of PLDT and together with NTT Communications beneficially owned approximately 21% of PLDT’s outstanding common stock as at December 31, 2010. NTT Communications and NTT DOCOMO are subsidiaries of NTT Holding Company. On February 28, 2007, Metro Pacific Asset Holdings, Inc., a Philippine affiliate of First Pacific, completed the acquisition of an approximately 46% interest in Philippine Telecommunications Investment Corporation, or PTIC, a shareholder of PLDT. This investment in PTIC represents an attributable interest of approximately 6% of the then outstanding common shares of PLDT and thereby raised First Pacific Group’s and its Philippine affiliates’ beneficial ownership to approximately 28% of PLDT’s outstanding common stock as at that date. Since then, First Pacific Group’s beneficial ownership interest in PLDT decreased by approximately 2%, mainly due to the holders of Exchangeable Notes, which were issued in 2005 by a subsidiary of First Pacific and exchangeable into PLDT shares owned by First Pacific Group, who fully exchanged their notes. First Pacific Group and its Philippine affiliates had beneficial ownership of approximately 26% in PLDT’s outstanding common stock as at December 31, 2010.

On October 26, 2011, PLDT completed the acquisition of a controlling interest in Digital Telecommunications Phils., Inc., or Digitel, from JG Summit Holdings, Inc., or JGS, and certain other seller-parties. As payment for the assets acquired from JGS, PLDT issued approximately 27.7 million common shares. In November 2011, JGS sold 5.81 million and 4.56 million PLDT shares to a Philippine affiliate of First Pacific and NTT DOCOMO, respectively, pursuant to separate option agreements that JGS had entered into with a Philippine affiliate of First Pacific and NTT DOCOMO, respectively. As at February 29, 2012, the JG Summit Group, First Pacific Group and its Philippine affiliates, and NTT Group (NTT DOCOMO, together with NTTC-UK) owned approximately 8%, 26% and 20% of PLDT’s outstanding common shares, respectively. See Note 13 – Business Combinations – PLDT’s Acquisition of Digitel.

The common shares of PLDT are listed and traded on the Philippine Stock Exchange, Inc., or PSE. On October 19, 1994, an American Depositary Receipt, or ADR, facility was established, pursuant to which Citibank N.A., as the depositary, issued ADRs evidencing American Depositary Shares, or ADSs, with each ADS representing one PLDT common share with a par value of Php5 per share. Effective February 10, 2003, PLDT appointed JP Morgan Chase Bank as successor depositary for PLDT’s ADR facility. The ADSs are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, in the United States and are traded on the NYSE under the symbol “PHI”. There are approximately 55 million ADSs outstanding as at December 31, 2011.

PLDT and our Philippine-based fixed line and wireless subsidiaries operate under the jurisdiction of the Philippine National Telecommunications Commission, or NTC, which jurisdiction extends, among other things, to approving major services offered and certain rates charged to customers.

(c) | Ceased commercial operations.

(d) | On December 6, 2011, SPi, SPi CRM and Infocom were transferred by ePLDT to SPi Global to support PLDT’s objective to grow the BPO segment.

(e) | On April 1, 2011, ePLDT sold its entire 75% equity interest in Digital Paradise.

(f) | On July 11, 2011, ePLDT sold its 57.5% interest in Level Up!.

(g) | On October 26, 2011, PLDT acquired 51.6% equity interest in Digitel. On December 8, 2011 PLDT exercised the conversion option on convertible and exchangeable bonds issued by Digitel and DCPL, respectively, for an aggregate of 4 billion Digitel common shares, increasing PLDT’s equity interest from 51.6% to 70.2%. At the end of the tender offer period on January 16, 2012, PLDT’s equity interest in Digitel increased from 70.2% to 98%. The acquisition of 51.6% equity interest in Digitel and mandatory tender offer were accounted for as linked transactions, and the acquisition of Digitel was treated as if 100% equity interest were obtained up to end of tender offer period where the actual remaining noncontrolling interest is determined. See Note 13 — Business Combinations — PLDT’s Acquisition of Digitel.

(h) | On July 25, 2011, SPi Global was sold by ePLDT to PLDT and reclassified as a holding company for BPO segment. ePLDT and its remaining subsidiaries were folded to the fixed line business of PLDT. See discussion in Note 4 — Operating Segment Information.

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the PLDT Group obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases.

190

##### Table of Contents

The financial statements of our subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as PLDT. We prepare our consolidated financial statements using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other events with similar circumstances. All intra-group balances, income and expenses, unrealized gains and losses and dividends resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in full.

Noncontrolling interest shares in losses even if the losses exceed the non-controlling equity interest in the subsidiary.

A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction.

If the PLDT Group loses control over a subsidiary, it: (a) derecognizes the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary; (b) derecognizes the carrying amount of any noncontrolling interest; (c) derecognizes the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity; (d) recognizes the fair value of the consideration received; (e) recognizes the fair value of any investment retained; (f) recognizes any surplus or deficit in profit or loss; and (g) reclassifies the parent’s share of components previously recognized in other comprehensive income to profit or loss or retained earnings, as appropriate.

Smart’s Acquisition of Noncontrolling Interests in PCEV

Smart’s Board of Directors approved on June 19, 2009 a tender offer to acquire at Php8.50 per share, which was paid in cash on August 12, 2009, from PCEV’s non-controlling shareholders up to approximately 840 million shares representing 7.2% of the outstanding common stock of PCEV at that time. Smart filed the Tender Offer Report with the Philippine SEC and the PSE on June 23, 2009 pursuant to Section 19 of the Securities Regulation Code, or SRC. The tender offer commenced on July 1, 2009 and ended on July 29, 2009, with approximately 93.0% of PCEV’s non-controlling shares tendered, thereby increasing Smart’s ownership to approximately 99.5% of the outstanding common stocks of PCEV. The aggregate cost for the tender offer paid by Smart to non-controlling shareholders on August 12, 2009 amounted to Php6,618 million, from which Smart recognized an excess of acquisition cost over the carrying value of noncontrolling interests acquired of Php5,479 million presented as part of capital in excess of par value account in our consolidated statement of financial position.

PCEV’s Common Stock

PCEV’s Board of Directors approved three share buyback programs during its meetings on November 3, 2008, March 2, 2009 and August 3, 2009. For all three programs, the buyback was done through the trading facilities of the PSE through open market purchases, block trades or other modes, subject to compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations. The number of shares approved for repurchase under the buyback programs were 58 million, 25 million and 61.5 million for the programs approved on November 3, 2008, March 2, 2009 and August 3, 2009, respectively. The program approved on November 3, 2008 was completed in January 2009 at a total cost of Php403 million, while the program approved on March 2, 2009 was completed in March 2009 at a total cost of Php188 million. PCEV repurchased 2.8 million shares at a total cost of Php23 million in 2009 and 0.8 million shares at a total cost of Php7 million in 2010 under the program approved on August 3, 2009. As at December 31, 2011 and 2010, cumulative shares repurchased under the share buyback programs totaled 86.6 million at an aggregate cost of Php621 million.

The share buyback was accounted for as acquisition of noncontrolling interest and therefore an equity transaction wherein the difference between the consideration paid and proportionate carrying value is recognized as an adjustment to capital in excess of par.

On November 2, 2011, the Board of Directors of PCEV authorized PCEV’s management to take such steps as necessary for the voluntary delisting of PCEV from the PSE in accordance with the PSE Rules on Voluntary Delisting. On December 2, 2011, PCEV’s Board of Directors also created a special committee to review and evaluate any tender offer to purchase the shares owned by the remaining minority shareholders representing 0.49% of the outstanding common stock of PCEV. Smart filed a Tender Offer Statement with the Philippine SEC on March 15, 2012. The Tender Offer commenced on March 19, 2012 and will end on April 18, 2012. PCEV, on the other hand, filed with the PSE its petition for voluntary delisting on March 19, 2012.

##### Table of Contents

The program approved on August 3, 2009 was terminated by PCEV’s Board of Directors on March 5, 2012 in anticipation of the tender offer by Smart to PCEV’s remaining minority shareholders.

Dissolution of TSI

On May 3, 2011, TSI was officially dissolved as a result of its voluntary application for insolvency. In a notice received from the Director of Insolvency Service, TSI has completely complied with the requirements of Section 151 (5) of the Insolvency Act of 2009. TSI was incorporated in Mauritius with principal activity of providing platform for mobile commerce.

Smart’s Sale of Investments in BOW

In June 2011, the management and operations of BOW was transferred from SHPL to Stratos BV, a third party. Consequently, SHPL ceased to recognize BOW as its subsidiary.

ePLDT’s Sale of Investments in Digital Paradise and Level Up!

As part of ePLDT’s business realignment and continuing efforts to dispose its non-core businesses, ePLDT sold its entire 75% interest in Digital Paradise on April 1, 2011, which was followed by the sale of its 57.5% interest in Level Up! on July 11, 2011.

ePLDT’s Additional Investment in ePDS

On August 24, 2011, ePLDT acquired an additional 17% of the equity interest of ePDS from Quantium Solutions International Pte. Ltd., or Quantium (formerly G3 Worldwide ASPAC), a private limited company, resulting in ePLDT’s equity interest in ePDS increasing from 50% to 67%. See Note 10 – Investment in Associates and Joint Ventures and Note 13 – Business Combinations – PLDT’s Acquisition of ePDS.

SPi’s Sale of Medical Transcription Business of SPi and SPi America Holdings

On September 26, 2011, SPi and SPi America Holdings, a wholly-owned subsidiary of SPi, signed an Asset Purchase Agreement, or APA, with Acusis, LLC, a global provider of outsourced clinical documentation solutions based in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, USA, for the sale of all assets and rights of every type and description which are related to or are used in the medical transcription business for a total consideration of US$2.8 million, or Php121 million, subject to the terms and conditions specified in the APA. The sale generated a net gain of US$2 million, or Php89 million.

The sale of investments in BOW, Digital Paradise, Level Up! and Medical transcription business of SPi and SPi America Holdings do not qualify as discontinued operations as these businesses do not represent a disposal of major line of business of PLDT Group.

Divestment of CURE

On October 26, 2011, Smart was directed by PLDT to divest CURE, its wholly-owned subsidiary, as one of the conditions to the NTC’s approval of the acquisition of Digitel by PLDT. CURE was granted the right to use the 10 MHz of 3G frequency bandwidth in the 1955-1965 to 1955-2155 MHz spectrum, or the Affected Frequency, and operates the wireless business under the Red Mobile brand.

The NTC also approved in October 2011 the divestment plan presented by PLDT, which covers the following commitments:

| • |  | CURE will sell its Red Mobile business to Smart consisting primarily of its subscriber base, brand and fixed assets. There will be a nine-month transition period to effect this first requirement; and

| • |  | Smart will sell all of its rights and interests in CURE whose remaining assets will consist of its congressional franchise, the Affected Frequency and related permits. The divestment sale will be conducted within six months after the end of the nine-month transition period and will be made under the supervision and control of the NTC.

The divestment of CURE related franchise and licenses qualifies as noncurrent assets held-for-sale but was no longer presented separately in our consolidated statement of financial position as the carrying amounts are not material.

On July 25, 2011, ePLDT sold its 100% equity interest in SPi Global to PLDT to serve as the new holding company for BPO business segment of the PLDT Group. Subsequently, on December 6, 2011, ePLDT also sold its 100% equity interest in SPi, SPi CRM and Infocom to SPi Global. The transaction was made at carrying values and has no impact in our consolidated financial statements. See discussion in Note 4 – Operating Segment Information.

Statement of Compliance

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards, or IFRS, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, or IASB.

Change in the Presentation of our Outbound Revenues

In 2011, we changed the presentation of our outbound revenues to gross amounts before charges billed to us, where applicable, by other carriers. In doing so, interconnection costs are then presented as a separate line item in the expense section of our consolidated income statements. Prior to 2011, we presented outbound revenues net of the share of other carriers. We made this change to present outbound revenues on a gross basis to more correctly present and align our consolidated income statement presentation with the predominant global practice in the telecommunications industry.

We accounted for the change retroactively and accordingly restated our comparative consolidated income statements. The change is for presentation only, and has no impact on our consolidated net income, earnings per share, cash flows and statements of financial position. The table below shows the affected line items in our financial information for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Changes in Accounting Policies and Disclosures

Our accounting policies are consistent with those of the previous financial year except for the adoption of the following amendments and improvements to existing IFRSs and new interpretation as at January 1, 2011:

| • |  | Amendment to International Accounting Standard, or IAS, 24, Related Party Disclosures;

| • |  | Amendment to IAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation – Classification of Rights Issues;

| • |  | Amendment to International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee, or IFRIC, Interpretation 14, Prepayments of a Minimum Funding Requirement;

| • |  | IFRIC Interpretation 19, Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments; and

| • |  | Improvements to IFRSs (2010).

193

##### Table of Contents

The changes introduced by such amendments, improvements and new interpretation are as follows:

Amendment to IAS 24, Related Party Disclosures. The standard has been amended to simplify the identification of related party relationship and re-balance the extent of disclosures of transactions between related parties based on the costs to preparers and the benefits to users in having this information available in the consolidated financial statements. Also, the amended standard provides a partial exemption from the disclosure requirements for government-related entities. The adoption of this amended standard did not have any impact on our current related party transaction disclosures.

Amendment to IAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation – Classification of Rights Issues. The definition of a financial liability in the standard has been amended to classify right issues (and certain options or warrants) as equity instruments if: (a) the rights are given pro rata to all of the existing owners of the same class of an entity’s non-derivative equity instruments; and (b) the instruments are used to acquire a fixed number of the entity’s own equity instruments for a fixed amount in any currency. The adoption of this amendment did not have any impact on our financial position or performance.

Amendment to IFRIC Interpretation 14, Prepayments of a Minimum Funding Requirement. The interpretation has been amended to permit an entity to treat the prepayment of a minimum funding requirement as an asset. The amendment should be applied to the beginning of the earliest period presented in the first financial statements in which the entity applied the original interpretation. The adoption of this amendment did not have any impact on our financial position or performance.

IFRIC Interpretation 19, Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments. The interpretation clarifies that equity instruments issued to a creditor to extinguish a financial liability are consideration paid. As a result, the financial liability is derecognized and the equity instruments issued are treated as consideration paid to extinguish that financial liability. The interpretation states that equity instruments issued in a debt for equity swap should be measured at the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if this can be determined reliably. If the fair value of the equity instruments issued is not reliably determinable, the equity instruments should be measured by reference to the fair value of the financial liability extinguished as of the date of extinguishment. Any difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability that is extinguished and the fair value of the equity instruments issued is recognized immediately in profit or loss. The interpretation did not have any impact on our financial position or performance.

Improvements to IFRSs

The Financial Reporting Standards Council approved during its meeting in May 2010 the adoption of Improvements to IFRSs, which were issued by the IASB in May 2010. Improvements to IFRSs is an omnibus of amendments to standards that deal primarily with a view to remove inconsistencies and clarify wording. There are separate transitional provisions for each standard which are all effective beginning January 1, 2011. The adoption of the following amendments resulted in changes to our accounting policies but did not have any impact on our financial position or performance.

| • |  | IFRS 3, Business Combinations. The improvements include: (a) clarification that the amendments to IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures, IAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation, and IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, that eliminate the exemption for contingent consideration, do not apply to contingent consideration that arose from business combinations whose acquisition dates precede the application of IFRS 3 (as revised in 2008); (b) guidance that the choice of measuring noncontrolling interests at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s net assets applies only to instruments that represent present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the net assets in the event of liquidation. All other components of noncontrolling interest are measured at fair value unless another measurement basis is required by IFRS; and (c) clarification that the application guidance in IFRS 3 applies to all share-based payment transactions that are part of a business combination, including un-replaced and voluntarily replaced share-based payment awards.

| • |  | IFRS 7, Financial Instruments. The amendment emphasizes the interaction between quantitative and qualitative disclosures about the nature and extent of risks associated with financial instruments.

194

##### Table of Contents

| • |  | IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements. The amendment clarifies that an entity will present an analysis of other comprehensive income for each component of equity, either in the statement of changes in equity or in the notes to the financial statements.

| • |  | IAS 27, Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements. The improvement clarifies that the consequential amendments from IAS 27 made to IAS 21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, IAS 28, Investments in Associates, and IAS 31, Interests in Joint Ventures, apply prospectively for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2009, or earlier when IAS 27 is applied earlier.

| • |  | IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. The amendment provides guidance on how to apply disclosure principles in IAS 34 and add disclosure requirements around: (a) the circumstances likely to affect fair values of financial instruments and their classification; (b) transfers of financial instruments between different levels of the fair value hierarchy; (c) changes in classification of financial assets; and (d) changes in contingent liabilities and assets.

| • |  | IFRIC Interpretation 13, Customer Loyalty Programmes. The amendment clarifies the meaning of fair value in the context of measuring award credits under customer loyalty programmes.

Significant Accounting Policies

The following are the significant accounting policies applied by us in preparing our consolidated financial statements:

Business Combinations and Goodwill

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred, measured at acquisition date fair value, and the amount of any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. For each business combination, the acquirer has the option to measure the components of the noncontrolling interest in the acquiree that are present ownership interest and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the net assets in the event of liquidation either at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. All other components of noncontrolling interest are measured at acquisition date fair values unless other measurement basis is required. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.

When we acquire a business, we assess the financial assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic circumstances and pertinent conditions as at the acquisition date. This includes the separation of embedded derivatives in host contracts by the acquiree.

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value as at the acquisition date through profit or loss.

Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer will be recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration which is deemed to be an asset or liability will be recognized in accordance with IAS 39 either in profit or loss or as a change to other comprehensive income. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it shall not be remeasured. Subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. In instances where the contingent consideration does not fall within the scope of IAS 39, it is measured in accordance with the appropriate IFRS.

Goodwill is initially measured at cost being the excess of the consideration transferred and the amount recognized for noncontrolling interest over the fair values of net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If this consideration is lower than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognized in profit or loss.

195

##### Table of Contents

If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs, we report in our consolidated financial statements provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. At measurement period which is no longer than one year from the acquisition date, the provisional amounts recognized at acquisition date are retrospectively adjusted to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date and, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognized as of that date. During the measurement period, we also recognize additional assets or liabilities if new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date and, if known, would have resulted in the recognition of those assets and liabilities as of that date.

After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of our cash-generating units, or CGUs, that are expected to benefit from the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units.

Where goodwill acquired in a business combination has yet to be allocated to identifiable CGU’s because the initial accounting is incomplete, such provisional goodwill is not tested for impairment unless indicators of impairment exist and we can reliably allocate the carrying amount of goodwill to a CGU or group of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination.

Where goodwill forms part of a CGU and part of the operation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the operation disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal of the operation. Goodwill disposed of in this circumstance is measured based on the relative values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the CGU retained.

Investments in Associates

Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting and are initially recognized at cost. An associate is an entity in which we have significant influence and which is neither a subsidiary nor a joint venture.

Under the equity method, an investment in an associate is carried in our consolidated statement of financial position at cost plus post acquisition changes in our share of net assets of the associate. Goodwill relating to an associate is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is not amortized nor individually tested for impairment. Our consolidated income statement reflects our share in the financial performance of our associates. Where there has been a change recognized directly in the equity of the associate, we recognize our share in such change and disclose this, when applicable, in our consolidated statement of comprehensive income and changes in equity. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from our transactions with and among our associates are eliminated to the extent of our interest in those associates.

Our share in the profits or losses of our associates is shown on the face of our consolidated income statement. This is the profit or losses attributable to equity holders of the associate and therefore is profit or losses after tax and net of noncontrolling interest in the subsidiaries of the associates.

Our reporting dates and that of our associates are identical and our associates’ accounting policies conform to those used by us for like transactions and events in similar circumstances. When necessary, adjustments are made to bring such accounting policies in line with those of PLDT Group.

After application of the equity method, we determine whether it is necessary to recognize an additional impairment loss on our investments in associates. We determine at the end of each reporting period whether there is any objective evidence that our investment in associate is impaired. If this is the case, we calculate the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of our investment in the associate and its carrying value and recognize the amount in our consolidated income statement.

Upon loss of significant influence over the associate, we measure and recognize any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amounts of our investment in the associate upon loss of significant influence and the fair value of the remaining investment and proceeds from disposal is recognized in profit or loss.

196

##### Table of Contents

Investments in Joint Ventures

Investments in a joint venture that is a jointly controlled entity is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The financial statements of the joint venture are prepared for the same reporting period as our consolidated financial statements. Where necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies of the joint venture in line with those of PLDT Group.

Adjustments are made in our consolidated financial statements to eliminate our share of unrealized gains and losses on transactions between PLDT and our jointly controlled entity. The joint venture is carried at equity method until the date on which we cease to have joint control over the jointly controlled entity.

Upon loss of joint control and provided that the former jointly controlled entity does not become a subsidiary or associate, we measure and recognize our remaining investment at fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the former jointly controlled entity upon loss of joint control and the fair value of the remaining investment and proceeds from disposal is recognized in profit or loss. When the remaining investment constitutes significant influence, it is accounted for as investment in an associate.

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations

Our consolidated financial statements are presented in Philippine peso, which is also the Parent Company’s functional currency. The Philippine peso is the currency of the primary economic environment in which we operate. This is also the currency that mainly influences the revenue from and cost of rendering products and services. Each entity in the PLDT Group determines its own functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency.

The functional and presentation currency of the entities under PLDT Group (except for SHPL, SGP, 3rd Brand, SMHC, SMI, TSI, FECL Group, PLDT Global and Subsidiaries, PGNL, DCPL, SPi Global and certain of its subsidiaries, and certain subsidiaries of Chikka and AGS) is the Philippine peso.

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by entities under PLDT Group at the respective functional currency rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the functional currency closing rate of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period. All differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognized in our consolidated income statement except for foreign exchange differences that qualify as capitalizable borrowing costs for qualifying assets. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates as at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined.

The functional currency of SMHC, SMI, TSI, FECL Group, PLDT Global and certain of its subsidiaries, PGNL, DCPL, SPi Global and certain of its subsidiaries, and certain subsidiaries of Chikka is the U.S. dollar; and the functional currency of SHPL, SGP, 3rd Brand, and certain subsidiaries of AGS is the Singapore dollar. As at the reporting date, the assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated into Philippine peso at the rate of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period, and income and expenses of these subsidiaries are translated monthly using the weighted average exchange rate for the month. The exchange differences arising on translation are recognized as a separate component of other comprehensive income as cumulative translation adjustments. On disposal of these subsidiaries, the amount of deferred cumulative translation adjustments recognized in other comprehensive income relating to subsidiaries are recognized in our consolidated income statement.

When there is a change in an entity’s functional currency, the entity applies the translation procedures applicable to the new functional currency prospectively from the date of the change. The entity translates all assets and liabilities into the new functional currency using the exchange rate at the date of the change. The resulting translated amounts for non-monetary items are treated as the new historical cost. Exchange differences arising from the translation of a foreign operation previously recognized in other comprehensive income are not reclassified from equity to profit or loss until the disposal of the operation.

Foreign exchange gains or losses of PLDT and our Philippine-based subsidiaries are treated as taxable income or deductible expenses in the year such exchange gains or losses are realized.

197

##### Table of Contents

Any goodwill arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation and any fair value adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities arising on the acquisition are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the closing rate.

Noncurrent assets held-for-sale and discontinued operations

Noncurrent assets and disposal groups classified as held-for-sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Noncurrent assets and disposal groups are classified as held-for-sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the asset or disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition. Management must be committed to the sale, which should be expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of classification.

In the consolidated income statement, income and expenses from discontinued operations are reported separately from income and expenses from continuing operations, down to the level of profit after taxes, even when we retain a noncontrolling interest in the subsidiary after the sale. The resulting profit or loss (after taxes) is reported separately in the consolidated income statement.

Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets once classified as held-for-sale are not depreciated nor amortized.

Financial Instruments – Initial recognition and subsequent measurement

Financial Assets

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial assets are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, or FVPL, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity, or HTM, investments, available-for-sale financial assets, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. We determine the classification of financial assets at initial recognition and, where allowed and appropriate, re-evaluate the designation of such assets at each financial year-end.

Financial assets are recognized initially at fair value plus transaction costs, except in the case of financial assets recorded at FVPL.

Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the market place (regular way purchases or sales) are recognized on the trade date, i.e., the date that we commit to purchase or sell the asset.

Our financial assets include cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, trade and other receivables, quoted and unquoted equity and debt securities, advances and other noncurrent assets, and derivative financial assets.

Subsequent measurement

The subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on the classification as described below:

Financial assets at FVPL

Financial assets at FVPL include financial assets held-for-trading and financial assets designated upon initial recognition at FVPL. Financial assets are classified as at FVPL if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Derivative assets, including separated embedded derivatives are also classified as at FVPL unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments. Financial assets at FVPL are carried in our consolidated statement of financial position at fair value with net changes in gains or losses recognized in our consolidated income statement under “Gains (losses) on derivative financial instruments – net” for derivative instruments and “Other income” for non-derivative financial assets. Interest earned and dividends received from financial assets at FVPL are recognized in our consolidated income statement under “Interest income” and “Other income”, respectively.

198

##### Table of Contents

Financial assets may be designated at initial recognition as at FVPL if any of the following criteria are met: (i) the designation eliminates or significantly reduces the inconsistent treatment that would otherwise arise from measuring the assets or recognizing gains or losses on them on a different bases; (ii) the assets are part of a group of financial assets which are managed and their performance are evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management strategy and information about the company is provided internally on that basis to the entity’s key management personnel; or (iii) the financial assets contain an embedded derivative, unless the embedded derivative does not significantly modify the cash flows or it is clear, with little or no analysis, that it would not be separately recorded.

Derivatives embedded in host contracts are accounted for as separate derivatives when their risks and characteristics are not closely related to those of the host contracts and the host contracts are not carried at fair value. These embedded derivatives are measured at fair value with gains or losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in our consolidated income statement. Reassessment only occurs if there is a change in the terms of the contract that significantly modifies the cash flows that would otherwise be required.

An embedded derivative is separated from the host contract and accounted for as a derivative if all of the following conditions are met: (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivatives are not closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract; (b) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative; and (c) the hybrid or combined instrument is not recognized at fair value through profit or loss.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and are not quoted in an active market. Such financial assets are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest rate, or EIR, method. This method uses an EIR that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. Gains and losses are recognized in our consolidated income statement when the loans and receivables are derecognized or impaired, as well as through the amortization process. Interest earned or incurred is recorded in “Interest income” in our consolidated income statement. Assets in this category are included in the current assets except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period, which are classified as noncurrent assets.

HTM investments

Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities are classified as HTM when we have the positive intention and ability to hold it to maturity. After initial measurement, HTM investments are measured at amortized cost using the EIR method. Gains or losses are recognized in our consolidated income statement when the investments are derecognized or impaired, as well as through the amortization process. Interest earned or incurred is recorded in “Interest income” in our consolidated income statement. Assets in this category are included in the current assets except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period, which are classified as noncurrent assets.

199

##### Table of Contents

Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-for-sale or are not classified in any of the three preceding categories. They are purchased and held indefinitely and may be sold in response to liquidity requirements or changes in market conditions. After initial measurement, available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value with unrealized gains or losses recognized in other comprehensive income account until the investment is derecognized, at which time the cumulative gain or loss recorded in other comprehensive income reserve account is recognized in our consolidated income statement; or determined to be impaired, at which time the cumulative loss recorded in other comprehensive income reserve account is recognized in our consolidated income statement. Interest earned on holding available-for-sale debt securities are included under “Interest income” using the EIR method in our consolidated income statement. Dividends earned on holding available-for-sale equity investments are recognized in our consolidated income statement under “Other income” when the right of the payment has been established. These financial assets are included under noncurrent assets unless we intend to dispose of the investment within 12 months of the end of the reporting period.

Financial Liabilities

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial liabilities are classified as financial liabilities at FVPL, other financial liabilities, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. We determine the classification of our financial liabilities at initial recognition.

Financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value plus, in the case of loans and borrowings directly attributable transaction costs.

Our financial liabilities include accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, interest-bearing financial liabilities, customers’ deposits, derivative financial liabilities, dividends payable, and accrual for long-term capital expenditures included under “Deferred credits and other noncurrent liabilities” account.

Subsequent measurement

The subsequent measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification as follows:

Financial liabilities at FVPL

Financial liabilities at FVPL include financial liabilities held-for-trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at FVPL. Financial liabilities are classified as at held-for-trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Derivative liabilities, including separated embedded derivatives are also classified as at FVPL unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments. Financial liabilities at FVPL are carried in our consolidated statement of financial position at fair value with gains or losses recognized in our consolidated income statement under “Gains (losses) on derivative financial instruments – net” for derivative instruments and “Other income” for non-derivative financial liabilities.

Financial liabilities may be designated at initial recognition as FVPL if any of the following criteria are met: (i) the designation eliminates or significantly reduces the inconsistent treatment that would otherwise arise from measuring the liabilities or recognizing gains or losses on them on a different bases; (ii) the liabilities are part of a group of financial liabilities which are managed and their performance are evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management strategy and information about the company is provided internally on that basis to the entity’s key management personnel; or (iii) the financial liabilities contain an embedded derivative, unless the embedded derivative does not significantly modify the cash flows or it is clear, with little or no analysis, that it would not be separately recorded.

Other financial liabilities

After initial recognition, other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the EIR method.

200

##### Table of Contents

Gains and losses are recognized in our consolidated income statement when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the EIR amortization process. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included under “Financing costs – net” in our consolidated income statement.

Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in our consolidated statement of financial position if, and only if, there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

Fair value of financial instruments

The fair value of financial instruments that are actively traded in organized financial markets is determined by reference to quoted market prices or dealer price quotations at the close of business at the end of the reporting period without any deduction for transaction costs. For financial instruments where there is no active market, fair value is determined using appropriate valuation techniques. Such techniques may include using recent arm’s length market transactions; reference to the current fair value of another instrument that is substantially the same; discounted cash flow analysis or other valuation models.

An analysis of fair values of financial instruments and further details as to how they are measured are provided in Note 27 – Financial Assets and Liabilities.

Amortized cost of financial instruments

Amortized cost is computed using the EIR method less any allowance for impairment and principal repayment or reduction. The calculation takes into account any premium or discount on acquisition and includes transaction costs and fees that are integral part of EIR.

“Day 1” difference

Where the transaction price in a non-active market is different from the fair value of other observable current market transactions in the same instrument or based on a valuation technique which variables include only data from observable market, we recognize the difference between the transaction price and fair value (a “Day 1” difference) in our consolidated income statement unless it qualifies for recognition as some other type of asset or liability. In cases where data used are not observable, the difference between the transaction price and model value is only recognized in our consolidated income statement when the inputs become observable or when the instrument is derecognized. For each transaction, we determine the appropriate method of recognizing the “Day 1” difference amount.

Impairment of Financial Assets

We assess at the end of each reporting period whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that have occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred “loss event”) and that loss event has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtor or a group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization and where observable data indicate that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.

201

##### Table of Contents

Financial assets carried at amortized cost

For financial assets carried at amortized cost, we first assess whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If we determine that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, we include the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assess them for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is, or continues to be, recognized are not included in a collective assessment of impairment.

If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future expected credit losses that have not yet been incurred). The present value of the estimated future cash flows is discounted at the financial asset’s original EIR. If a financial asset has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current EIR.

The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss is recognized under “Asset impairment” in our consolidated income statement. Interest income continues to be accrued on the reduced carrying amount based on the original EIR of the asset. The financial asset together with the associated allowance are written-off when there is no realistic prospect of future recovery and all collateral has been realized or has been transferred to us. If, in a subsequent year, the amount of the estimated impairment loss increases or decreases because of an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is increased or reduced by adjusting the allowance account. Any subsequent reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in our consolidated income statement, to the extent that the carrying value of the asset does not exceed its original amortized cost at the reversal date. If a future write-off is later recovered, the recovery is recognized in profit or loss.

Available-for-sale financial assets

In the case of equity investments classified as available-for-sale financial assets, objective evidence would include a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the investment below its cost. The determination of what is “significant” or “prolonged” requires judgment. We treat “significant” generally as 20.0% or more of the original cost of investment, and “prolonged” as greater than 12 months. When a decline in the fair value of an available-for-sale financial asset has been recognized in other comprehensive income reserve account and there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired, the cumulative loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income reserve account is reclassified from other comprehensive income reserve account to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment even though the financial asset has not been derecognized. The amount of the cumulative loss that is reclassified from other comprehensive income account to profit or loss is the difference between the acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment and amortization) and current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognized in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognized in profit or loss for an investment in an equity instrument are not reversed in profit or loss. Subsequent increases in the fair value after impairment are recognized directly in other comprehensive income.

In the case of debt instruments classified as available-for-sale financial assets, impairment is assessed based on the same criteria as financial assets carried at amortized cost. Future interest income is based on the reduced carrying amount and is accrued based on the rate of interest used to discount future cash flows for the purpose of measuring impairment loss. Such accrual is recorded as part of “Interest income” in our consolidated income statement. If, in a subsequent year, the fair value of a debt instrument increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized in our consolidated income statement, the impairment loss is reversed in profit or loss.

A financial asset (or where applicable a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognized when: (1) the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; or (2) we have transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or have assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a “pass-through” arrangement; and either: (a) we have transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset; or (b) we have neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but have transferred control of the asset.

##### Table of Contents

When we have transferred the rights to receive cash flows from an asset or have entered into a “pass-through” arrangement, and have neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, a new asset is recognized to the extent of our continuing involvement in the asset.

Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of the consideration that we could be required to repay.

When continuing involvement takes the form of a written and/or purchased option (including a cash-settled option or similar provision) on the transferred asset, the extent of our continuing involvement is the amount of the transferred asset that we may repurchase, except that in the case of a written put option (including a cash-settled option or similar provision) on an asset measured at fair value, the extent of our continuing involvement is limited to the lower of the fair value of the transferred asset and the option exercise price.

Financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or has expired.

When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the carrying amount of a financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit or loss.

The financial liability is also derecognized when equity instruments are issued to extinguish all or part of the financial liability. The equity instruments issued are recognized at fair value if it can be reliably measured, otherwise, it is recognized at the fair value of the financial liability extinguished. Any difference between the fair value of the equity instruments issued and the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished is recognized in the profit or loss.

Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedge Accounting

Initial recognition and subsequent measurement

We use derivative financial instruments, such as long-term currency swaps, foreign currency options, forward currency contracts and interest rate swaps to hedge our risks associated with interest rate and foreign currency fluctuations. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.

Any gains or losses arising from changes in fair value on derivatives during the year that do not qualify for hedge accounting are taken directly to the “Gains (losses) on derivative financial instruments – net” in our consolidated income statement.

The fair value of forward currency contracts is calculated by reference to current forward exchange rates for contracts with similar maturity profiles. The fair value of long-term currency swaps, foreign currency options and interest rate swap contracts is determined using applicable valuation techniques. See Note 27 – Financial Assets and Liabilities.

For the purpose of hedge accounting, hedges are classified as: (1) fair value hedges when hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized financial asset or liability or an unrecognized firm commitment (except for foreign-currency risk); or (2) cash flow hedges when hedging exposure to variability in cash flows that is either attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognized financial asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction or the foreign-currency risk in an unrecognized firm commitment; or (3) hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation.

##### Table of Contents

At the inception of a hedge relationship, we formally designate and document the hedge relationship to which we wish to apply hedge accounting and the risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge. The documentation includes identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item or transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged and how we will assess the hedging instrument’s effectiveness in offsetting the exposure to changes in the hedged item’s fair value or cash flows attributable to the hedged risk. Such hedges are expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows and are assessed on an on-going basis to determine that they actually have been highly effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which they are designated. In a situation when that hedged item is a forecast transaction, we assess whether the transaction is highly probable and presents an exposure to variations in cash flows that could ultimately affect our consolidated income statement.

Hedges which meet the strict criteria for hedge accounting are accounted for as follows:

Fair value hedges

The change in the fair value of a hedging derivative is recognized in our consolidated income statement. The change in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to the risk being hedged is recorded as part of the carrying value of the hedged item and is also recognized in our consolidated income statement.

The fair value for financial instruments traded in active markets at the end of the reporting period is based on their quoted market price or dealer price quotations (bid price for long positions and ask price for short positions), without any deduction for transaction costs. When current bid and asking prices are not available, the price of the most recent transaction provides evidence of the current fair value as long as there has not been a significant change in economic circumstances since the time of the transaction. For all other financial instruments not listed in an active market, the fair value is determined by using appropriate valuation techniques. Valuation techniques include net present value techniques, comparison to similar instruments for which market observable prices exist, option pricing models, and other relevant valuation models.

When an unrecognized firm commitment is designated as a hedged item, the subsequent cumulative change in the fair value of the firm commitment attributable to the hedged risk is recognized as financial asset or liability with a corresponding gain or loss recognized in our consolidated income statement. The changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument are also recognized in our consolidated income statement.

Cash flow hedges

The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognized in our consolidated statement of comprehensive income, while any ineffective portion is recognized immediately in our consolidated income statement.

Amounts taken to comprehensive income are transferred to our consolidated income statement when the hedged transaction affects our consolidated income statement, such as when the hedged financial income or financial expense is recognized or when a forecast sale occurs. Where the hedged item is the cost of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability, the amounts taken to other comprehensive income are transferred to the initial carrying amount of the non-financial asset or liability.

If the forecast transaction or firm commitment is no longer expected to occur, amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred to our consolidated income statement. If the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised without replacement or rollover, or if its designation as a hedge is revoked, amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income remain in other comprehensive income until the forecast transaction or firm commitment occurs.

Hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation

Hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation, including a hedge of a monetary item that is accounted for as part of the net investment, are accounted for in a way similar to cash flow hedges. Gains or losses on the hedging instrument relating to the effective portion of the hedge are recognized in other comprehensive income while any gains or losses relating to the ineffective portion are recognized in our consolidated income statement. On disposal of the foreign operation, the cumulative value of any such gains or losses recognized in other comprehensive income is transferred to our consolidated income statement.

##### Table of Contents

Current versus noncurrent classification

Derivative instruments that are not designated as effective hedging instruments are classified as current or noncurrent or separated into a current and noncurrent portion based on an assessment of the facts and circumstances (i.e., the underlying contracted cash flows).

Where the group will hold a derivative as an economic hedge (and does not apply hedge accounting) for a period beyond 12 months after the reporting date, the derivative is classified as noncurrent (or separated into current and noncurrent portions) consistent with the classification of the underlying item.

Embedded derivatives that are not closely related to the host contract are classified consistent with the cash flows of the host contract.

Derivative instruments that are designated as effective hedging instruments, are classified consistently with the classification of the underlying hedged item. The derivative instrument is separated into a current portion and a noncurrent portion only if a reliable allocation can be made.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment, except for land, is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes the cost of replacing component parts of the property, plant and equipment when the cost is incurred, if the recognition criteria are met. When significant parts of property, plant and equipment are required to be replaced at intervals, we recognize such parts as individual assets with specific useful lives and depreciate them accordingly. Likewise, when a major inspection is performed, its cost is recognized in the carrying amount of the property, plant and equipment as a replacement if the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognized in our consolidated income statement as incurred. The present value of the expected cost for the decommissioning of the asset after use is included in the cost of the respective assets if the recognition criteria for a provision are met. Land is stated at cost less any impairment in value.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the year the asset is derecognized.

Depreciation and amortization are calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives used in depreciating our property, plant and equipment are disclosed in Note 9 – Property, Plant and Equipment.

The asset’s residual value, estimated useful life, and depreciation and amortization method are reviewed at least at each financial year-end to ensure that the period and method of depreciation and amortization are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items of property, plant and equipment and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

Property under construction is stated at cost. This includes cost of construction, plant and equipment, capitalizable borrowing costs, and other direct costs. Property under construction is not depreciated until such time that the relevant assets are completed and available for its intended use.

Construction-in-progress is transferred to the related property, plant and equipment when the construction or installation and related activities necessary to prepare the property and equipment for their intended use have been completed, and the property and equipment are ready for commercial service.

205

##### Table of Contents

Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs are capitalized if they are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale. Capitalization of borrowing costs commences when the activities necessary to prepare the asset for intended use are in progress and expenditures and borrowing costs are being incurred. Borrowing costs are capitalized until the asset is available for their intended use. If the resulting carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognized. Borrowing costs include interest charges and other costs incurred in connection with the borrowing of funds, as well as exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings used to finance these projects, to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs.

All other borrowing costs are expensed as incurred.

Asset Retirement Obligations

We are legally required under various lease agreements to dismantle the installation in leased sites and restore such sites to their original condition at the end of the lease contract term. We recognize the liability measured at the present value of the estimated costs of these obligations and capitalize such costs as part of the balance of the related item of property, plant and equipment. The amount of asset retirement obligations are accreted and such accretion is recognized as interest expense.

Investment Properties

Investment properties are initially measured at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are stated at fair values, which have been determined annually based on the latest appraisal performed by an independent firm of appraisers, an industry specialist in valuing these types of investment properties. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair values of investment properties are included in our consolidated income statement in the year in which they arise. Where an entity is unable to determine the fair value of an investment property under construction, but expects to be able to determine its fair value on completion, the investment under construction will be measured at cost until such time that fair value can be determined or construction is completed.

Investment properties are derecognized when they have been disposed of or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future benefit is expected from its disposal.

Transfers are made to or from investment property only when there is a change in use. For a transfer from investment property to owner occupied property, the deemed cost for subsequent accounting is the fair value at the date of change in use. If an owner occupied property becomes an investment property, we account for such property in accordance with the policy stated under property, plant and equipment up to the date of change in use. The difference between the carrying amount of the occupied property and its fair value at the date of change is accounted for as revaluation increment recognized in other comprehensive income.

No assets held under operating lease have been classified as investment properties.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured at cost on initial recognition. The cost of intangible assets acquired from business combinations is initially recognized at fair value on the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment loss. The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed at the individual asset level as having either a finite or indefinite useful life.

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful economic life using the straight-line method of accounting and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible assets may be impaired. At a minimum, the amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at each financial year-end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are accounted for by changing the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognized in our consolidated income statement.

206

##### Table of Contents

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment annually either individually or at the CGU level. Such intangible assets are not amortized. The useful life of an intangible asset with an indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine whether indefinite life assessment continues to be supportable. If not, the change in the useful life assessment from indefinite to finite is made on a prospective basis.

Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, and are recognized in our consolidated income statement when the asset is derecognized.

Intangible assets created within the business are not capitalized and expenditures are charged against operations in the year in which the expenditures are incurred.

Inventories and Supplies

Inventories and supplies, which include cellular phone units, materials, spare parts, terminal units and accessories, are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value.

Cost incurred in bringing each items of inventories and supplies to its present location are accounted using the weighted average method. Net realizable value is determined by either estimating the selling price in the ordinary course of the business, less the estimated cost to sell or determining the prevailing replacement costs.

Impairment of Non-Financial Assets

We assess at each reporting period whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when the annual impairment testing for an asset is required, we make an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or CGU’s fair value less costs to sell or its value in use, and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent from those of other assets or groups of assets. When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining the fair value less costs to sell, an appropriate valuation model is used. Impairment losses are recognized in our consolidated income statement.

For assets, excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, we make an estimate of the recoverable amount. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. If this is the case, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. The increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation and amortization, had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognized in our consolidated income statement. After such reversal, the depreciation and amortization charges are adjusted in future years to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining economic useful life.

The following assets have specific characteristics for impairment testing:

Property, plant and equipment

For property, plant and equipment, we also assess for impairment on the basis of impairment indicators such as evidence of internal obsolescence or physical damage.

Goodwill

Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. Impairment is determined for goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of each CGU, or group of CGU, to which the goodwill relates. When the recoverable amount of the CGU, or group of CGUs, is less than the carrying amount of the CGU, or group of CGUs, to which goodwill has been allocated, an impairment loss is recognized. Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods.

207

##### Table of Contents

If there is incomplete allocation of goodwill acquired in a business combination to CGUs, or group of CGUs, an impairment testing of goodwill is only carried out when impairment indicators exist. Where impairment indicators exist, impairment testing of goodwill is performed at a level at which the acquirer can reliably test for impairment.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized but are tested for impairment annually either individually or at the CGU level, as appropriate. We calculate the amount of impairment as being the difference between the recoverable amount of the intangible asset and its carrying amount and recognize the amount of impairment in our consolidated income statement. Impairment losses relating to intangible assets can be reversed in future periods.

Investments in associates and joint ventures

We determine at the end of each reporting period whether there is any objective evidence that our investments in associates and joint ventures are impaired. If this is the case, the amount of impairment is calculated as the difference between the recoverable amount of the investments in associates and joint ventures, and its carrying amount. The amount of impairment loss is recognized in our consolidated income statement.

Investment in Debt Securities

Investment in debt securities are government securities which are carried at amortized cost using the EIR method. Interest earned from these securities is recognized as “Interest income” in our consolidated income statement.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash includes cash on hand and in banks. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with original maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition, and for which there is an insignificant risk of change in value.

Short-term Investments

Short-term investments are money market placements, which are highly liquid with maturities of more than three months but less than one year from the date of acquisition.

Trade and Other Receivables

Trade and other receivables, categorized as loans and receivables, are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the EIR method, less provision for impairment.

A provision for impairment of trade and other receivables is established when there is objective evidence that we will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganization, and default or delinquency in payments are considered indicators that the trade receivable is impaired. The amount of the provision is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original EIR. Cash flows relating to short-term receivables are not discounted if the effect of discounting is immaterial. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss is recognized in our consolidated income statement.

When a trade and other receivable is uncollectible, it is written-off against the allowance account for trade and other receivables. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written-off are recognized as income in our consolidated income statement.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues for services are stated at amounts invoiced to customers, net of value-added tax, or VAT, and overseas communication tax, where applicable. We provide wireless communication, fixed line communication, and BPO services to our subscribers and customers. We provide such services to mobile, business, residential and payphone customers. Revenues represent the value of fixed consideration that have been received or are receivable. Revenues are recognized when there is evidence of an arrangement, collectibility is reasonably assured, and the delivery of the product or rendering of service has occurred. In certain circumstances, revenue is split into separately identifiable components based on their relative fair value to reflect the substance of the transactions. Where fair value is not directly observable, the total consideration is allocated using an appropriate allocation method. Under certain arrangements where the above criteria are met, but there is uncertainty regarding the outcome of the transaction for which service was rendered, revenue is recognized only to the extent of expenses incurred for rendering the service, and such amount is determined to be recoverable. We do not provide our customers with the right to a refund. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognized:

Service Revenues

Subscriptions

We provide telephone and data communication services under prepaid and postpaid payment arrangements. Installation and activation related fees and the corresponding costs, not exceeding the activation revenue, are deferred and recognized over the expected average periods of customer relationship for fixed line and cellular services. Postpaid service arrangements include subscription fees, typically fixed monthly fees, which are recognized over the subscription period on a pro-rata basis.

Air time, traffic and value-added services

Prepaid service revenues collected in advance are deferred and recognized as revenue based on the earlier of actual usage or upon expiration of the usage period. Interconnection revenues for call termination, call transit and network usage are recognized in the year the traffic occurs. Revenues related to local, long distance, network-to-network and international call connection services are recognized when the call is placed or connection is provided. Charges billed to us by other carriers are presented as interconnection costs in our consolidated income statements. Revenues related to products and VAS are recognized upon delivery of the product or service, net of content providers share in revenue.

Knowledge processing solutions and customer relationship management

Revenue is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to us and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. Advance customer receipts that have not been recognized as revenue are recorded as advances from customers and presented as a liability in our consolidated statement of financial position. If the fee is not measurable, revenue is not recognized on those arrangements until the customer payment is received. For arrangements requiring specific customer acceptance, revenue recognition is deferred until the earlier of the end of the deemed acceptance period or until a written notice of acceptance is received from the customer. Revenue on services rendered to customers whose ability to pay is in doubt at the time of performance of services is also not recorded. Rather, revenue is recognized from these customers as payment is received.

Incentives

We record insignificant commission expenses based on the number of new subscriber connections initiated by certain dealers. All other cash incentives provided to dealers and customers are recorded as a reduction to revenues. Product-based incentives provided to dealers and customers as part of a transaction are accounted for as multiple element arrangements and recognized when earned.

##### Table of Contents

Our wireless segment operates two loyalty points programmes, one for Smart Money cardholders and another for subscribers of Smart Gold, Smart Buddy and SmartBro. The loyalty programme for Smart Money allows cardholders, upon enrollment, to accumulate points when they use their card for purchases, Smart Load payments, and reloads for Smart’s prepaid cards, SmartBro prepaid Airtime and Smart Money Cash Load. The points for the programme can then be redeemed for airtime or load wallet. On the other hand, the loyalty programme for Smart’s cellular and broadband subscribers allows postpaid subscribers to accumulate points for billed transactions and prepaid subscribers for reloads or top-ups and VAS, and international direct dialing usage and tenure in the network for both postpaid and prepaid subscribers. The points for the loyalty programme for the subscribers can then be redeemed, upon registration, for bill rebates, discounts on cellular phonekit purchases, on-network short messaging services or internet surf time. Redemption for both programmes are subject to a minimum number of points being required. Consideration received is allocated between the services sold and the points issued, with the consideration allocated to the points equal to their fair value. Fair value of the points is determined by applying statistical analysis. The fair value of the points issued are deferred and recognized as revenue when the points are redeemed.

Non-service Revenues

Handset and equipment sales

Sale of cellular handsets and communication equipment are recognized upon delivery to the customer.

Interest income

Interest income is recognized as it accrues on a time proportion basis taking into account the principal amount outstanding and the EIR.

Expenses

Expenses are recognized as incurred.

Provisions

We recognize provision when we have present obligation, legal or constructive, as a result of a past event, and when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. When we expect some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in our consolidated income statement, net of any reimbursements. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as interest expense.

Retirement Benefits

Defined benefit pension plans

We have separate and distinct retirement plans for PLDT and majority of our Philippine-based operating subsidiaries, administered by the respective Fund’s Trustees, covering permanent employees. Retirement costs are separately determined using the projected unit credit method. This method reflects services rendered by employees to the date of valuation and incorporates assumptions concerning employees’ projected salaries. Retirement costs include current service cost plus amortization of past service cost, experience adjustments, changes in actuarial assumptions and the effect of any curtailments or settlements. Past service cost is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the average period until the benefits become vested. If the benefits vest immediately following the introduction of, or changes to, a pension plan, past service cost is recognized immediately. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized as income or expense when the net cumulative unrecognized actuarial gains and losses for each individual plan at the end of the previous reporting period exceeded 10% of the higher of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets at that date. These gains and losses are recognized over the expected average remaining working lives of the employees participating in the plan.

210

##### Table of Contents

The defined benefit asset or liability comprises the present value of the defined benefit obligation (using a discount rate based on government bonds), net of past service cost and actuarial gains and losses not yet recognized, and less the fair value of plan assets out of which the obligations are to be settled directly. Plan assets are assets held by long-term employee benefit fund and are not available to our creditors nor can they be paid directly to us. Fair value is based on market price information and in the case of quoted securities, the published bid price. The value of any defined benefit asset recognized is restricted to the sum of any past service cost and actuarial gains and losses not yet recognized, and the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plan or reductions in the future contributions to the plan.

Defined contribution plans

Smart and certain of its subsidiaries record expenses for their contribution to the defined contribution plans when the employee renders service to Smart and certain of its subsidiaries, essentially coinciding with their cash contributions to the plans.

Other Long-term Employee Benefits

Our liability arising from 2010 to 2012 Long-term Incentive Plan, or 2010 to 2012 LTIP, is determined using the projected unit credit method. Employee benefit costs include current service cost, interest cost, actuarial gains and losses and past service costs. Past service costs and actuarial gains and losses are recognized immediately.

The long-term employee benefit liability comprises the present value of the defined benefit obligation (using a discount rate based on government bonds) at the end of the reporting period.

Share-Based Payment Transactions

Cash-settled transactions

Our 2007 to 2009 LTIP grants share appreciation rights, or SARs, to our eligible key executives and advisors. Under the 2007 to 2009 LTIP, we recognize the services we receive from our eligible key executives and advisors, and our liability to pay for those services, as the eligible key executives and advisors render services during the vesting period. We measure our liability, initially and at each reporting date until settled, at the fair value of the SARs, by applying an option valuation model, taking into account the terms and conditions on which the SARs were granted, and the extent to which the eligible key executives and advisors have rendered service to date. We recognize any changes in fair value at each reporting date until settled in our consolidated income statement for the year.

Leases

The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains, a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at inception date of whether the fulfillment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets or the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement. A reassessment is made after the inception of the lease only if one of the following applies: (a) there is a change in contractual terms, other than a renewal or extension of the agreement; (b) a renewal option is exercised or extension granted, unless the term of the renewal or extension was initially included in the lease term; (c) there is a change in the determination of whether the fulfillment is dependent on a specified asset; or (d) there is a substantial change to the asset.

Where a reassessment is made, lease accounting shall commence or cease from the date when the change in circumstances gave rise to the reassessment for scenarios (a), (c) or (d) and the date of renewal or extension period for scenario (b).

As a Lessor. Leases where we retain substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Any initial direct costs incurred in negotiating an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized over the lease term on the same bases as rental income. Rental income is recognized in our consolidated income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

All other leases are classified as finance leases. At the inception of the finance lease, the asset subject to lease agreement is derecognized and lease receivable is recognized. Interest income is accrued over the lease term and lease amortization is accounted for as reduction of lease receivable.

211

##### Table of Contents

As a Lessee. Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the assets are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognized as expense in our consolidated income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

All other leases are classified as finance leases. A finance lease gives rise to the recognition of a leased asset and finance lease liability. Capitalized leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term, if there is no reasonable certainty that we will obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term. Interest expense is recognized over the lease term.

Income Taxes

Current income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior years are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted as at the end of the reporting period where we operate and generate taxable income.

Deferred income tax

Deferred income tax is provided using the balance sheet liability method on all temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the end of the reporting period.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences except: (1) when the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and (2) with respect to taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interest in joint ventures, when the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, the carryforward benefits of unused tax credits from excess minimum corporate income tax, or MCIT, over regular corporate income tax, or RCIT, and unused net operating loss carry over, or NOLCO. Deferred income tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and carryforward benefits of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized, except: (1) when the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and (2) with respect to deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax assets to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred income tax assets are reassessed at the end of each reporting period and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred income tax assets to be recovered.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted as at the end of the reporting period.

Deferred income tax relating to items recognized in other comprehensive income account is included in the statement of comprehensive income and not in our consolidated income statement.

212

##### Table of Contents

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are set off, if a legally enforceable right exists to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred income taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

Tax benefits acquired as part of a business combination, but not satisfying the criteria for separate recognition at that date, would be recognized subsequently if new information about facts and circumstances changed. The adjustment would either be treated as a reduction to goodwill (as long as it does not exceed goodwill) if it is incurred during the measurement period or in profit or loss.

Contingencies

Contingent liabilities are not recognized in our consolidated financial statements. They are disclosed in the notes to our consolidated financial statements unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. Contingent assets are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements but are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements when an inflow of economic benefits is probable.

Events After the End of the Reporting Period

Post year-end events up to the date of approval of the Board of Directors that provide additional information about our financial position at the end of the reporting period (adjusting events) are reflected in the consolidated financial statements. Post year-end events that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements when material.

Equity

Preferred and common stocks are measured at par value for all shares issued. Incremental costs incurred directly attributable to the issuance of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction from proceeds, net of tax. Proceeds and/or fair value of considerations received in excess of par value are recognized as capital in excess of par value.

Treasury stocks are our own equity instruments which are reacquired and recognized at cost and presented as reduction in equity. No gain or loss is recognized in our consolidated income statement on the purchase, sale, reissuance or cancellation of our own equity instruments. Any difference between the carrying amount and the consideration upon reissuance or cancellation of shares is recognized as capital in excess of par value.

Change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction and any impact is presented as part of capital in excess of par value.

Retained earnings represent our net accumulated earnings less cumulative dividends declared.

Other comprehensive income comprise items of income and expense, including reclassification adjustments, that are not recognized in profit or loss as required or permitted by other IFRSs.

New Accounting Standards and Interpretations to Existing Standards Effective Subsequent to December 31, 2011

We will adopt the following revised standards and interpretations enumerated below which are relevant to us when these become effective. Except as otherwise indicated, we do not expect the adoption of these revised standards and amendments to IFRS to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Effective 2012

Amendments to IFRS 7, Disclosures – Transfers of Financial Assets. The amendments will allow users of financial statements to improve their understanding of transfer transactions of financial assets including understanding the possible effects of any risks that may remain with the entity that transferred the assets. The amendments also require additional disclosures if a disproportionate amount of transfer transactions are undertaken around the end of a reporting period. These amendments are applied prospectively and are applicable for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2011.

Amendment to IAS 12, Income Taxes – Deferred Income Tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets. The amendment to IAS 12 introduces a rebuttable presumption that deferred tax on investment properties measured at fair value will be recognized on the sale basis, unless an entity has a business model that would indicate the investment property will be consumed in the business. If consumed, an own use basis must be adopted. The amendment also introduces a presumption that recovery of the carrying amount of an asset will normally be through sale. This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2012.

Effective 2013

Amendments to IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures – Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. These amendments require an entity to disclose information about rights of set off and related arrangements (such as collateral agreements). The new disclosures are required for all recognized financial instruments that are set off in accordance with IAS 32. These disclosures also apply to recognized financial instruments that are subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or “similar arrangement”, irrespective of whether they are set off in accordance with IAS 32. The amendments require entities to disclose, in a tabular format unless another format is more appropriate, the following minimum quantitative information presented separately for financial assets and liabilities recognized at the end of the reporting period: (a) the gross amounts of those recognized financial assets and recognized financial liabilities; (b) the amounts that are set off in accordance with the criteria in IAS 32 when determining the net amounts presented in the statement of financial position; (c) the net amounts presented in the statement of financial position; (d) the amounts subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement that are not otherwise include in (b) above, including: (i) amounts related to recognized financial instruments that do not meet some or all of the offsetting criteria in IAS 32; and (ii) amounts related to financial collateral (including cash collateral); and (e) the net amount after deducting the amounts in (d) from the amounts in (c) above.

IFRS 10, Consolidated Financial Statements. IFRS 10 defines the principle of control and introduces a new approach to determining which investees should be consolidated in the consolidated financial statements. It further provides a single model to be applied in the control analysis for all investees and sets out the accounting requirements for the preparation of consolidated financial statements. IFRS 10 and IAS 27 (as amended in 2011) together will supersede IAS 27 (as amended in 2008) and Standards Interpretation Committee, or SIC, 12, Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities. The standard is applied retrospectively for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, with certain exceptions. Earlier adoption is permitted provided that IFRS 11, Joint Arrangements, and IFRS 12, Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, IAS 27 (as revised in 2011) and IAS 28 (as revised in 2011), are applied simultaneously and with additional disclosure of the fact.

IFRS 11, Joint Arrangements. IFRS 11 provides for a more realistic reflection of joint arrangements by focusing on the rights and obligations of the arrangement, rather than its legal form. The standard addresses inconsistencies in the reporting of joint arrangements by requiring a single method to account for interests in jointly controlled entities and elimination of proportionate consolidation method. IFRS 11 will supersede IAS 31, Interests in Joint Ventures, and SIC 13, Jointly Controlled Entities – Non-Monetary Contributions by Ventures. The standard is applied retrospectively for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier adoption is permitted provided that IFRS 10, IFRS 12, IAS 27 (as revised in 2011) and IAS 28 (as revised in 2011) are applied simultaneously and with additional disclosure of the fact.

We are currently assessing the potential impact of adoption of IFRS 10 and IFRS 11 when these become effective beginning January 1, 2013.

IFRS 12, Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities. IFRS 12 is a new and comprehensive standard on disclosure requirements for all forms of interests in other entities, including subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and unconsolidated structured entities that enables the users of the financial statements to evaluate: (a) the nature of, and risks associated with, the interests in other entities; and (b) the effects of those interests on the financial position, financial performance and cash flows. The standard also evaluate the: (i) nature and extent of significant restrictions on its ability to access or use assets and settle liabilities of the group; (ii) nature of, and changes in, the risks associated with its interests in consolidated structured entities; (iii) nature and extent of its interests in unconsolidated structured entities, and the nature of, and changes in, the risks associated with those interests; (iv) the nature, extent and financial effects of its interests in joint arrangements and associates, and the nature of the risks associated with those interests; (v) the consequences of changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control; and (vi) the consequences of losing control of a subsidiary during the reporting period.

IFRS 12 is applied retrospectively for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier adoption is permitted. We expect a more comprehensive disclosure about our interest in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, and associates upon adoption.

IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement. IFRS 13 sets forth the definition of fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date with an emphasis that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. IFRS 13 explains that a fair value measurement requires an entity to determine the following:

(a) the particular asset or liability being measured; (b) for a non-financial asset, the highest and best use of the asset and whether the asset is used in combination with other assets or on a stand-alone basis; (c) the market in which an orderly transaction would take place for the asset or liability; and (d) the appropriate valuation technique(s) to use when measuring fair value. The valuation technique(s) used should maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize unobservable inputs. Those inputs should be consistent with the inputs that a market participant would use when pricing the asset or liability. IFRS 13 is to be applied for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted.

Revised IAS 19, Employee Benefits. The revised standard removes the deferral mechanism for pension plans and prescribes that all changes in the value of defined benefit plans will be recognized as they occur. Those movements are recorded in profit or loss and other comprehensive income as follows: (a) service cost and a net interest income or expense will be recognized in profit or loss. The net interest income or expense is the product of the net balance sheet liability or asset and the discount rate used to measure the obligation – both as at the start of the year. This removes the current concept of expected return on plan assets – where income is credited with the expected long-term yield on the assets in the fund; and (b) “Remeasurements” will be recorded in other comprehensive income. These are all other movements in the balance sheet amount (essentially these are currently described as actuarial gains and losses and any effects of the restriction of a surplus to its recoverable amount). Other changes as a result of the revised standard include: (i) recognition of past service cost as expense when the plan amendments occur regardless of whether or not they are vested; and (ii) change in the basis for distinction between short-term and other long-term employee benefits to expected timing of settlement rather than employee entitlement. Changes in the carrying amount of liabilities for other long-term employment benefits will continue to be recognized in profit or loss. The revised standard also requires termination benefits (outside of a wider restructuring) to be recognized only when the offer becomes legally binding and cannot be withdrawn. In the context of a wider restructuring, termination benefits are recognized at the same time as the other restructuring costs. These amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 and accounted for retrospectively. Earlier application is permitted. We are currently using the corridor approach in recognizing actuarial gains or losses. Upon adoption of revised IAS 19, unrecognized actuarial gains or losses will be recognized in full as part of other comprehensive income.

Revised IAS 27, Separate Financial Statements. The standard has been revised as a result of the issuance of IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12. The revised standard provides the accounting and disclosure requirements for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates when an entity prepares separate financial statements and requires an entity preparing separate financial statements to account for those investments at cost or in accordance with IFRS 9, Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement. The standard is issued concurrently with IFRS 10 and together, the two IFRSs will supersede IAS 27 (as amended in 2008) and SIC 12, Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities. Revised IAS 27 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted provided that IFRS 10, IFRS 11, IFRS 12 and IAS 28 (as revised in 2011) are applied simultaneously and with additional disclosure of the fact.

##### Table of Contents

Revised IAS 28, Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures. The standard has been revised as a result of the issuance of IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12. The revised standard prescribes the accounting for investments in associates and sets out the requirements for the application of the equity method when accounting for investments in associates and joint ventures. Equity method is defined in the revised standard as a method of accounting whereby the investment is initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post-acquisition change in the investor’s share of net assets of the investee. The profit or loss of the investor includes its share of the profit or loss of the investee and the other comprehensive income of the investor includes its share of other comprehensive income of the investee. The revised standard is to be applied by all entities that are investors with joint control of, or significant influence over, an investee. This standard supersedes IAS 28 (as amended in 2003). Revised IAS 28 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier adoption is permitted provided that IFRS 10, IFRS 11, IFRS 12 and IAS 27 (as revised in 2011) are applied simultaneously and with additional disclosure of the fact.

Amendments to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements. The amendments improve the consistency and clarity of presentation of items of other comprehensive income. The amendments require entities to present line items of amounts of other comprehensive income in the period to be classified by nature and be grouped into those that, in accordance with other IFRSs: (a) will not be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss; and (b) will be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss when specific conditions are met. Other comprehensive income items that can be reclassified into profit or loss include: (i) foreign exchange gains and losses arising from translations of financial statements of foreign operations; and (ii) effective portion of gains and losses on hedging instruments in a cash flow hedge. While those items that cannot be reclassified into profit or loss include: (i) changes in the revaluation surplus; (ii) actuarial gains and losses on defined benefit plans; (iii) gains and losses from investment in equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income; and (iv) for those liabilities designated at FVPL, changes in fair value attributable to changes in the liability’s credit risk. These amendments are effective for annual periods beginning July 1, 2012. Earlier application is permitted.

Effective 2014

Amendments to IAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation – Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. These amendments to IAS 32 clarify the meaning of “currently has a legally enforceable right to set off” and also clarify the application of the IAS 32 offsetting criteria to settlement systems (such as central clearing house systems) which apply gross settlement mechanisms that are not simultaneous. While the amendment is expected not to have any impact on the net assets of the PLDT, any changes in offsetting is expected to impact leverage ratios and regulatory capital requirements. The amendments to IAS 32 are to be retrospectively applied for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014. We are currently assessing impact of the amendments to IAS 32.

Effective 2015

IFRS 9, Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement. IFRS 9, as issued in 2010, reflects the first phase of the work on the replacement of IAS 39 and applies to classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities as defined in IAS 39. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015. In subsequent phases, hedge accounting and derecognition will be addressed. The completion of this project is expected in 2012. The adoption of the first phase of IFRS 9 will have an effect on the classification and measurement of our financial assets. We will quantify the effect on our consolidated financial statements in conjunction with the other phases, when issued, to present a comprehensive picture.

3. | Management’s Use of Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of our revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the end of each reporting period. The uncertainties inherent in these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the assets or liabilities affected in the future years.

216

##### Table of Contents

Judgments

In the process of applying the PLDT Group’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgments, apart from those including estimations and assumptions, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in our consolidated financial statements.

Determination of functional currency

The functional currencies of the entities under the PLDT Group are the currency of the primary economic environment in which each entity operates. It is the currency that mainly influences the revenue from and cost of rendering products and services.

The presentation currency of the PLDT Group is the Philippine peso. Based on the economic substance of the underlying circumstances relevant to the PLDT Group, the functional currency of all entities under PLDT Group is the Philippine peso, except for, SMHC, SMI, TSI, FECL Group, PLDT Global and certain of its subsidiaries, PGNL, DCPL, SPi Global and certain of its subsidiaries, and certain subsidiaries of Chikka, which use the U.S. dollar. SHPL, SGP, 3rd Brand, and certain subsidiaries of AGS use the Singapore dollar as functional currency.

As a result of the internal reorganization within PLDT wherein BPO is now classified as an independent operating segment under SPi Global, management undertook a review of the functional currency exposures of SPi Global and certain of its subsidiaries. Based on management’s assessment, SPi Global and SPi CRM’s new currency exposures are now largely U.S. dollars. Based on the aforementioned consideration, which is set forth in IAS 21, SPi Global and SPi CRM commenced adopting U.S. dollars as its functional currency starting on December 6, 2011. See discussions in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 4 – Operating Segment Information.

Leases

As a lessee, we have various lease agreements in respect of our certain equipment and properties. We evaluate whether significant risks and rewards of ownership of the leased properties are transferred to us (finance lease) or retained by the lessor (operating lease) based on IAS 17, Leases. Total lease expense arising from operating leases amounted to Php4,162 million, Php3,970 million and Php4,055 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total finance lease obligations amounted to Php14 million and Php43 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 20 – Interest-bearing Financial Liabilities and Note 27 – Financial Assets and Liabilities.

PLDT’s Acquisition of Digitel

Our acquisition of 51.6% equity interest in Digitel and the mandatory tender offer were accounted for as linked transactions and as a single business combination due to the following: (a) the price per share offered to remaining noncontrolling interest is fixed and the same price as what we offered to acquire the controlling interest of JGS;

(b) the remaining non-controlling shareholders of Digitel did not negotiate to receive the offer; (c) although the offer was initiated by PLDT, it stemmed from a regulatory requirement triggered by the acquisition of controlling interest in Digitel; and (d) the offer period is relatively short period of time.

As the acquisition of 51.6% equity interest and the mandatory tender offer were accounted for as linked transactions, we accounted for the business combination as if we have acquired 100% equity interest at the closing date of the transaction on October 26, 2011. A mandatory tender offer option liability is recognized and treated as part of consideration transferred in addition to the fair value of PLDT common shares issued to JGS. At the end of the tender offer period, the mandatory tender offer option liability is derecognized and corresponding settlement either in shares or in cash is recorded for those who opted for the mandatory tender offer. For the portion of mandatory tender offer option liability that expires unexercised, the mandatory tender offer option liability is derecognized and noncontrolling interest is set-up measured as of the date of acquisition. See Note 13 – Business Combinations – PLDT’s Acquisition of Digitel.

Estimates and Assumptions

The key estimates and assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities recognized in the consolidated financial statements within the next financial year are discussed below. We based our estimates and assumptions on parameters available when the consolidated financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising beyond the control of PLDT. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.

Asset impairment

IFRS requires that an impairment review be performed when certain impairment indicators are present. In the case of goodwill, at a minimum, such asset is subject to an annual impairment test and more frequently whenever there is an indication that such asset may be impaired. This requires an estimation of the value in use of the CGUs to which the goodwill is allocated. Estimating the value in use requires us to make an estimate of the expected future cash flows from the CGU and to choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows.

Determining the recoverable amount of property, plant and equipment, investments in associates and joint ventures, intangible assets and other noncurrent assets, requires us to make estimates and assumptions in the determination of future cash flows expected to be generated from the continued use and ultimate disposition of such assets. Future events could cause us to conclude that property, plant and equipment, investments in associates and joint ventures, intangible assets and other noncurrent assets associated with an acquired business are impaired. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and financial performance.

The preparation of estimated future cash flows involves significant estimations and assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are appropriate and reasonable, significant changes in our assumptions may materially affect our assessment of recoverable values and may lead to future additional impairment charges under IFRS.

In 2011, we recognized an impairment loss of Php8,457 million for certain network equipment and facilities which no longer efficiently support our network modernization program and have been identified for replacement. The impairment loss recognized represents the net book value of these network equipment and facilities. See Note 9 – Property, Plant and Equipment.

Total asset impairment on noncurrent assets amounted to Php8,517 million, Php1,496 million and Php2,337 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. See Note 4 – Operating Segment Information, Note 5 – Income and Expenses and Note 9 – Property, Plant and Equipment.

The provisional goodwill from the acquisition of Laserwords Private Ltd., or Laserwords, ePDS and Digitel of Php849 million, Php26 million, and Php68,340 million, respectively, were not tested for impairment since there were no indicators of impairment identified. See Note 13 – Business Combinations.

The carrying values of our property, plant and equipment, investments in associates and joint ventures, goodwill and intangible assets, and prepayments are separately disclosed in Notes 9, 10, 14 and 18, respectively.

Estimating useful lives of property, plant and equipment

We estimate the useful lives of our property, plant and equipment based on the periods over which our assets are expected to be available for use. Our estimate of the useful lives of our property, plant and equipment is based on our collective assessment of industry practice, internal technical evaluation and experience with similar assets. The estimated useful lives of our property, plant and equipment are reviewed every year-end and are updated if expectations differ from previous estimates due to physical wear and tear, technical or commercial obsolescence and legal or other limitations on the use of our assets. It is possible, however, that future results of operations could be materially affected by changes in our estimates brought about by changes in the factors mentioned above. The amounts and timing of recorded expenses for any period would be affected by changes in these factors and circumstances. A reduction in the estimated useful lives of our property, plant and equipment would increase our recorded depreciation and amortization and decrease our property, plant and equipment.

218

##### Table of Contents

The total depreciation and amortization of property, plant and equipment amounted to Php27,957 million, Php26,277 million and Php25,607 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total carrying values of property, plant and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, amounted to Php197,731 million and Php163,184 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 4 – Operating Segment Information and Note 9 – Property, Plant and Equipment.

Determining the fair value of investment properties

We have adopted the fair value approach in determining the carrying value of our investment properties. We opted to rely on independent appraisers in determining the fair values of our investment properties, and such fair values were determined based on recent prices of similar properties, with adjustments to reflect any changes in economic conditions since the date of those transactions. The amounts and timing of recorded changes in fair value for any period would differ if we made different judgments and estimates or utilized a different basis for determining fair value. Appraisal of investment properties is performed every December 31.

Net gains from fair value adjustments charged to profit or loss amounted to Php26 million, Php6 million and Php352 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total carrying values of our investment properties amounted to Php1,115 million and Php1,560 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 12 – Investment Properties.

Goodwill and intangible assets

Our consolidated financial statements and financial performance reflect acquired businesses after the completion of the respective acquisition. We account for the acquired businesses using the acquisition method, which require extensive use of accounting judgments and estimates to allocate the purchase price to the fair market values of the acquiree’s identifiable assets and liabilities and contingent liabilities, if any, at the acquisition date. Thus, the numerous judgments made in estimating the fair market value to be assigned to the acquiree’s assets and liabilities can materially affect our financial performance.

Intangible assets acquired from business combination with finite lives are amortized over the expected useful life using the straight-line method of accounting. At a minimum, the amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at each financial year-end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are accounted for by changing the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognized in our consolidated income statement.

The total amortization of intangible assets amounted to Php264 million, Php388 million and Php368 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total carrying values of goodwill and intangible assets amounted to Php80,656 million and Php11,485 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 14 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets.

Recognition of deferred income tax assets and liabilities

We review the carrying amounts of deferred income tax assets at the end of each reporting period and reduce these to the extent that these are no longer probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax assets to be utilized. Our assessment on the recognition of deferred income tax assets on deductible temporary differences is based on the level and timing of forecasted taxable income of the subsequent reporting periods. This forecast is based on our past results and future expectations on revenues and expenses as well as future tax planning strategies. However, there is no assurance that we will generate sufficient taxable income to allow all or part of our deferred income tax assets to be utilized. We also review the level of projected gross margin for the use of Optional Standard Deduction, or OSD method, and assess the future tax consequences for the recognition of deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities. Based on Smart’s and Wolfpac’s projected gross margin, they expect to continue using the OSD method in the foreseeable future.

219

##### Table of Contents

Based on the above assessment, our consolidated unrecognized deferred income tax assets amounted to Php16,098 million and Php1,477 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In addition, our unrecognized net deferred income tax assets for items which would not result in future tax benefits when using the OSD method amounted to Php4,240 million and Php2,803 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Total consolidated benefit from deferred income tax amounted to Php1,261 for the year ended December 31, 2011 and total consolidated provision for deferred income tax amounted to Php1,198 million and Php656 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total consolidated net deferred income tax assets amounted to Php5,975 million and Php6,110 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, while total consolidated net deferred income tax liabilities amounted to Php2,902 million and Php1,099 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 4 – Operating Segment Information and Note 7 – Income Taxes.

Estimating allowance for doubtful accounts

If we assessed that there is an objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred in our trade and other receivables, we estimate the allowance for doubtful accounts related to our trade and other receivables that are specifically identified as doubtful of collection. The amount of allowance is evaluated by management on the basis of factors that affect the collectibility of the accounts. In these cases, we use judgment based on the best available facts and circumstances, including, but not limited to, the length of our relationship with the customer and the customer’s credit status based on third party credit reports and known market factors, to record specific reserves for customers against amounts due in order to reduce our receivables to amounts that we expect to collect. These specific reserves are re-evaluated and adjusted as additional information received affect the amounts estimated.

In addition to specific allowance against individually significant receivables, we also assess a collective impairment allowance against credit exposures of our customer which were grouped based on common credit characteristic, which, although not specifically identified as requiring a specific allowance, have a greater risk of default than when the receivables were originally granted to customers. This collective allowance is based on historical loss experience using various factors, such as historical performance of the customers within the collective group, deterioration in the markets in which the customers operate, and identified structural weaknesses or deterioration in the cash flows of customers.

Total provision for doubtful accounts for trade and other receivables recognized in our consolidated income statements amounted to Php1,549 million, Php834 million and Php2,335 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Trade and other receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, amounted to Php16,245 million and Php16,428 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 4 – Operating Segment Information, Note 5 – Income and Expenses, Note 16 – Trade and Other Receivables and Note 27 – Financial Assets and Liabilities.

Estimating net realizable value of inventories and supplies

We write-down the cost of inventories whenever the net realizable value of inventories becomes lower than cost due to damage, physical deterioration, obsolescence, change in price levels or other causes. The lower of cost and net realizable value of inventories is reviewed on a periodic basis. Inventory items identified to be obsolete or unusable are written-off and charged as expense in our consolidated income statement.

Total write-down of inventories and supplies amounted to Php143 million, Php108 million and Php389 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The carrying values of inventories and supplies amounted to Php3,827 million and Php2,219 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 4 – Operating Segment Information, Note 5 – Income and Expenses and Note 17 – Inventories and Supplies.

Share-based payment transactions

Our 2007 to 2009 LTIP grants SARs to our eligible key executives and advisors. Under the 2007 to 2009 LTIP, we recognize the services we receive from the eligible key executives and advisors, and our liability to pay for those services, as the eligible key executives and advisors render services during the vesting period. We measure our liability, initially and at each reporting date until settled, at the fair value of the SARs, by applying an option valuation model, taking into account the terms and conditions on which the SARs were granted, and the extent to which the eligible key executives and advisors have rendered service to date. We recognize any changes in fair value at each reporting date until settled in our consolidated income statement. The estimates and assumptions are described in Note 25 – Share-based Payments and Employee Benefits and include, among other things, annual stock volatility, risk-free interest rate, dividends yield, the remaining life of options, and the fair value of common stock. While management believes that the estimates and assumptions used are reasonable and appropriate, significant differences in our actual experience or significant changes in the estimates and assumptions may materially affect the stock compensation costs charged to operations. The fair value of the 2007 to 2009 LTIP recognized as expense for the year ended December 31, 2009 amounted to Php1,833 million. As at December 31, 2009, outstanding 2007 to 2009 LTIP liability amounted to Php4,582 million, which was paid in full in April 2010. See Note 5 – Income and Expenses.

Estimation of pension benefit costs and other employee benefits

The cost of defined benefit plans and present value of the pension obligation are determined using projected unit credit method. Actuarial valuation includes making various assumptions which consists, among other things, discount rates, expected rates of return on plan assets, rates of compensation increases and mortality rates. See Note 25 – Share-based Payments and Employee Benefits. Actual results that differ from our assumptions are recognized as income or expense when the net cumulative unrecognized actuarial gains and losses at the end of the previous reporting period exceed 10% of the higher of the present value of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets at that date. These excess actuarial gains and losses are recognized over the expected average remaining working lives of the employees participating in the plan. Due to complexity of valuation, the underlying assumptions and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable and appropriate, significant differences in our actual experience or significant changes in our assumptions may materially affect our cost for pension and other retirement obligations. All assumptions are reviewed every year-end.

Net consolidated pension benefit income amounted to Php38 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and total consolidated pension benefit costs amounted to Php236 million and Php1,306 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Unrecognized net actuarial gains amounted to Php2,886 million and Php479 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The prepaid benefit costs amounted to Php5,654 million and Php5,333 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The accrued benefit costs amounted to Php496 million and Php415 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 5 – Income and Expenses, Note 18 – Prepayments and Note 25 – Share-based Payments and Employee Benefits.

The new LTIP, or 2010 to 2012 LTIP, has been presented to and approved by the Executive Compensation Committee, or ECC, and the Board of Directors, and is based on profit targets for the covered Performance Cycle. The cost of 2010 to 2012 LTIP is determined using the projected unit credit method based on prevailing discount rates and profit targets. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable and appropriate, significant differences in our actual experience or significant changes in our assumptions may materially affect our cost for other employee benefits. All assumptions are reviewed on a monthly basis. Total outstanding liability and fair value of 2010 to 2012 LTIP cost as at and for the year ended December 31, 2010 amounted to Php1,392 million. Based on our latest projection, the profit targets for the covered Performance Cycle is no longer achievable, thus, accrued LTIP cost as at December 31, 2010 was reversed and presented as part of other income in our consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2011. See Note 5 – Income and Expenses and Note 25 – Share-based Payments and Employee Benefits.

Provision for asset retirement obligations

Provision for asset retirement obligations are recognized in the period in which they are incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. This requires an estimation of the cost to restore/dismantle on a per square meter basis, depending on the location, and is based on the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation at the future restoration/dismantlement date, discounted using a pre-tax rate that reflects the current market assessment of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risk specific to the liability. Total provision for asset retirement obligations amounted to Php2,107 million and Php1,344 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 21 – Deferred Credits and Other Noncurrent Liabilities.

Provision for legal contingencies and tax assessments

We are currently involved in various legal proceedings and tax assessments. Our estimate of the probable costs for the resolution of these claims have been developed in consultation with our counsel handling the defense in these matters and is based upon our analysis of potential results. We currently do not believe these proceedings could materially reduce our revenues and profitability. It is possible, however, that future financial performance could be materially affected by changes in our estimates or effectiveness of our strategies relating to these proceedings and assessments. See Note 26 – Provisions and Contingencies.

Revenue recognition

Our revenue recognition policies require us to make use of estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of our revenues and receivables.

Our agreements with domestic and foreign carriers for inbound and outbound traffic subject to settlements require traffic reconciliations before actual settlement is done, which may not be the actual volume of traffic as measured by us. Initial recognition of revenues is based on our observed traffic adjusted by our normal experience adjustments, which historically are not material to our consolidated financial statements. Differences between the amounts initially recognized and the actual settlements are taken up in the accounts upon reconciliation. However, we cannot assure you that the use of such estimates will not result in material adjustments in future periods.

Revenues under a multiple element arrangement specifically applicable to our fixed line and wireless businesses are split into separately identifiable components based on their relative fair value to reflect the substance of the transaction. Where fair value is not directly observable, the total consideration is allocated using an appropriate allocation method.

Under certain arrangements with our knowledge processing solutions services, if there is uncertainty regarding the outcome of the transaction for which service was rendered, revenue is recognized only to the extent of expenses incurred for rendering the service and only to such amount is determined to be recoverable.

We recognize our revenues from installation and activation related fees and the corresponding costs over the expected average periods of customer relationship for fixed line and cellular services. We estimate the expected average period of customer relationship based on our most recent churn rate analysis.

Determination of fair values of financial assets and liabilities

Where the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position cannot be derived from active markets, they are determined using valuation techniques including the discounted cash flows model. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgment is required in establishing fair values. The judgments include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value of financial instruments.

Total fair values of financial assets and liabilities amounted to Php72,002 million and Php216,443 million, respectively, as at December 31, 2011, while the total fair values of financial assets and liabilities amounted to Php55,538 million and Php167,396 million, respectively, as at December 31, 2010. See Note 27 – Financial Assets and Liabilities.

4. | Operating Segment Information

Operating segments are components of the PLDT Group that engage in business activities from which they may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of PLDT Group), which operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker to make decisions about how resources are to be allocated to each of the segments and to assess their performances, and for which discrete financial information is available.

For management purposes, we are organized into business units based on our products and services and based on the reorganization as discussed below. We have four reportable operating segments, as follows:

| • |  | Wireless – wireless telecommunications services provided by Smart, CURE, and DMPI, which is the operator of the Sun Cellular business and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Digitel (PLDT acquired a controlling interest in Digitel on October 26, 2011 and through a series of transactions holds approximately 99.5% of the outstanding common stock of Digitel as at March 22, 2012); our cellular service providers; SBI and PDSI, our wireless broadband service providers; Wolfpac and Chikka Group, our wireless content operators; and ACeS Philippines, our satellite operator;

| • |  | Fixed Line – fixed line telecommunications services primarily provided by PLDT. We also provide fixed line services through PLDT’s subsidiaries, namely, ClarkTel, SubicTel, Philcom Group, Maratel, SBI, PDSI, BCC, PLDT Global and Digitel, all of which together account for approximately 17% of our consolidated fixed line subscribers; information and communications infrastructure and services for internet applications, internet protocol-based solutions and multimedia content delivery provided by ePLDT and AGS Group; netGames; and bills printing and other VAS-related services provided by ePDS (ePLDT increased its equity interest in ePDS from 50% to 67% on August 24, 2011). ePLDT disposed of its 75% interest in Digital Paradise, a provider of internet access services on April 1, 2011 and disposed of its 57.51% interest in Level Up!, a publisher of online games on July 11, 2011;

| • |  | BPO – knowledge processing solutions provided by the SPi Group; and customer relationship management provided by SPi CRM and Infocom (ePLDT transferred the internet business of Infocom to PLDT on July 1, 2011); and

| • |  | Others – PCEV, an investment holding company.

See Note 2 – Summary of Accounting Policies and Note 13 – Business Combinations for further discussion.

The primary effects of the acquisition of the Digitel Group on our operating segments is the addition of DMPI to our wireless business and the addition of Digitel to our fixed line business. We have agreed with the NTC that we will continue to operate Sun Cellular as a separate brand.

On July 7, 2010, our Board of Directors approved the reorganization of the ePLDT Group into two business groups: (i) the information and communications technology, or ICT business group, which provides data center services, internet and online gaming services and business solutions and applications, and which was subsequently incorporated into our fixed line business; and (ii) the BPO business group, which covers customer relationship management or call center operations under SPi CRM; and content solutions, medical billing and coding and medical transcription services under SPi.

With our objective to grow the BPO business segment, and for ePLDT to focus on its core business of IT infrastructure and services, our Board of Directors approved on July 5, 2011 to spin off SPi and SPi CRM from ePLDT and transfer the ownership of SPi Global to PLDT, and to place both SPi and SPi CRM under SPi Global. The reorganization was completed on December 6, 2011.

PCEV transferred its cellular business to Smart in August 2009 and acquired 223 million common shares, or about 20% equity interest, in Manila Electric Company, or Meralco, in March 2010. PCEV subsequently transferred to Beacon Electric Asset Holdings, Inc., or Beacon, in which PCEV acquired 50% equity interest effective March 31, 2010, 154.2 million and 68.8 million Meralco common shares to Beacon on May 12, 2010 and October 25, 2011, respectively. As a result, PCEV became an investment/holding company and reclassified PCEV from Wireless to Others business segment.

As at December 31, 2011, our chief operating decision maker views our business activities in four business units: Wireless, Fixed Line, BPO and Others, compared to three business units in 2010: Wireless, Fixed Line and ICT. The remaining ICT businesses, which did not form part of our BPO, were reclassified into our fixed line segment. We have retroactively implemented the above changes in our segment reporting and restated our comparative operating segment information accordingly.

The chief operating decision maker and management monitor the operating results of each business unit separately for purposes of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. Segment performance is evaluated based on net income (loss) for the year; earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization, or adjusted EBITDA; adjusted EBITDA margin; and core income. Net income (loss) for the year is measured consistent with net income (loss) in the consolidated financial statements.

Adjusted EBITDA is measured as net income excluding depreciation and amortization, amortization of intangible assets, asset impairment on noncurrent assets, financing costs, interest income, equity share in net earnings (losses) of associates and joint ventures, foreign exchange gains (losses) – net, gains (losses) on derivative financial instruments – net, provision for (benefit from) income tax and other income (expenses).

Adjusted EBITDA margin is measured as adjusted EBITDA divided by service revenues for the year.

Core income for the year is measured as net income attributable to equity holders of PLDT (net income less net income attributable to noncontrolling interests), excluding foreign exchange gains (losses) – net, gains (losses) on derivative financial instruments – net (excluding hedge costs), asset impairment on noncurrent assets, other nonrecurring gains (losses), net of tax effect of aforementioned adjustments, as applicable, and similar adjustments to equity share in net earnings (losses) of associates and joint ventures.

Transfer prices between operating segments are on an arm’s length basis similar to transactions with third parties. Segment revenues, segment expenses and segment results include transfers between business segments. These transfers are eliminated in full upon consolidation.

Core earnings per common share, or core EPS, is measured as core income divided by the weighted average number of common shares for the year. See Note 8 – Earnings Per Common Share for the weighted average number of common shares for the year.

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, core income and core EPS are non-IFRS measures.

The amount of segment assets and liabilities are based on measurement principles that are similar to those used in measuring the assets and liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position, which is in accordance with IFRS.

The segment revenues, net income for the year, assets, liabilities, and other segment information of our reportable operating segments as at and for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 are as follows:

On December 18, 2008, the Bureau of Internal Revenue, or BIR, issued Revenue Regulations No. 16-2008, which implemented the provisions of Republic Act 9504, or R.A. 9504 on OSD. Under the OSD method of computing taxable income, corporations may elect a standard deduction in an amount equivalent to 40% of gross income, as provided by law, in lieu of the itemized allowed deductions.

Smart and Wolfpac opted to use and availed of the OSD method in computing their taxable income for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.

Smart and Wolfpac expect to continue to use the OSD method for computing the taxable income in the foreseeable future. The availment of the OSD method has affected their recognition of deferred income tax assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities of Smart and Wolfpac, for which the related income and expenses are not considered in determining gross income for income tax purposes, are not recognized as deferred income tax assets and liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial position. This is because the manner by which they expect to recover or settle the underlying assets and liabilities would not result in any future tax consequence. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities, for which the related income and expenses are considered in determining gross income for income tax purposes, are recognized only to the extent of their future tax consequence assuming OSD method was applied, which results in such deferred income tax assets and liabilities being reduced by the 40% allowable deduction that are provided for under the OSD method. Accordingly, the deferred income tax assets and liabilities that were not recognized due to the OSD method amounted to Php4,240 million and Php2,803 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 3 – Management’s Use of Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions.

The breakdown of our consolidated deductible temporary differences, carry forward benefits of unused tax credits from excess of MCIT over RCIT, and NOLCO (excluding those not recognized due to the adoption of the OSD method) for which no deferred income tax assets were recognized and the equivalent amount of unrecognized deferred income tax assets as at December 31, 2011 and 2010 are as follows:

Digitel Group’s unrecognized deferred income tax assets as at December 31, 2011 amounted to Php14,766 million.

Our consolidated deferred income tax assets have been recorded to the extent that such consolidated deferred income tax assets are expected to be utilized against sufficient future taxable profit. Deferred income tax assets related to the preceding table were not recognized as we believe that future taxable profit will not be sufficient to realize these deductible temporary differences and carry forward benefits of unused tax credits from excess of MCIT over RCIT, and NOLCO in the future.

The breakdown of our consolidated excess MCIT and NOLCO as at December 31, 2011 are as follows:

Date Incurred |  | Expiry Date |  | MCIT |  |  | NOLCO |

The excess MCIT totaling Php142 million as at December 31, 2011 can be deducted against future RCIT due. The excess MCIT that was deducted against RCIT due amounted to Php446 million, Php156 million and Php766 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The amount of expired portion of excess MCIT amounted to Php16 million, Php5 million and Php3 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

NOLCO totaling Php12,459 million as at December 31, 2011 can be claimed as deduction against future taxable income. The NOLCO claimed as deduction against taxable income amounted to Php827 million, Php445 million and Php56 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The amount of expired portion of NOLCO amounted to Php330 million, Php95 million and Php462 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Three of SPi CRM facilities (SPi CRM Iloilo, SPi CRM Pasig and SPi CRM Mandaluyong) enjoy income tax holiday, or ITH, incentive as a Board of Investments, or BOI, registered entity in PEZA registered locations. ITH incentive commenced in March 2005 up to February 2011 for SPi CRM Iloilo. Upon expiration of the ITH, SPi CRM Iloilo is now subject to a special income tax rate of 5% of gross income as a PEZA registered location. ITH incentive for both SPi CRM Pasig and SPi CRM Mandaluyong commenced in August 2006 and will continue until July 2012 and October 2012, respectively. In relation to this, they are required to comply with specific terms and conditions stated in their PEZA Supplemental Agreement.

The registration with PEZA for the operations of SPi CRM Dumaguete is still in progress and therefore it is subject to the regular corporate income tax. However, the Local Investment Board of Dumaguete City issued a Certificate of Registration and Eligibility which granted SPi CRM Dumaguete the exemption to pay local business taxes and basic real property taxes on improvements for the period from November 2010 to October 2013.

SHI was registered with the PEZA as an Ecozone IT enterprise on a non-pioneer status last July 31, 2009. Under the terms of registration, SHI is entitled to certain tax and non-tax incentives which include, among other things, an ITH for four years starting June 2009.

On July 28, 2005, Chikka Philippines, Inc., or CPI, a subsidiary of Chikka, was registered with the PEZA as an Ecozone IT enterprise on a non-pioneer status. Under the terms of its registration, CPI was entitled to certain tax and non-tax incentives, which include, among other things, an ITH for four years from July 2005 to July 2009. In September 2011, CPI received a letter dated August 31, 2011 from PEZA, in which PEZA refused to certify the available incentives (e.g. 5% gross income tax) due to CPI’s failure to meet the required export sales of at least 70% of CPI’s total sales in prior years. Consequently, CPI became subject to a 30% RCIT on taxable income or 2% MCIT on total gross income, whichever is higher.

Registration with BOI

On January 3, 2007, the BOI approved ePLDT’s application for pioneer status as a new IT service firm in the field of services related to Internet Data Center for its new data center facility. ePLDT was granted a six-year ITH for its new data center facility starting January 2007.

SBI is registered with the BOI on a pioneer status, namely as: (i) a new operator of telecommunications systems (inter-exchange carrier for data services); (ii) new IT service firm in the field of providing internet services; and (iii) a new operator of telecommunications facilities (nationwide broadband wireless access). Under the terms of registration, SBI was entitled to certain tax and non-tax incentives which include, among other things, an ITH for six years, SBI’s ITH incentive ended last July 21, 2011. Income derived after the expiration of the ITH is now subject to 30% RCIT on taxable income or 2% MCIT on total gross income, whichever is higher.

Consolidated income derived from non-registered activities with Economic Zone and BOI is subject to the RCIT rate enacted as at the end of the reporting period.

Consolidated tax incentives that were availed from registration with Economic Zone and BOI amounted to Php1,136 million, Php686 million and Php1,241 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Basic EPS amounts are calculated by dividing our consolidated net income for the year attributable to common equity holders of PLDT (consolidated net income adjusted for dividends on all series of preferred shares, except for dividends on preferred stock subject to mandatory redemption) by the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the year .

Diluted EPS amounts are calculated in the same manner assuming that, at the beginning of the year or at the time of issuance during the year, all outstanding options are exercised and convertible preferred shares are converted to common shares, and appropriate adjustments to consolidated net income are effected for the related income and expenses on preferred shares. Outstanding stock options will have a dilutive effect only when the average market price of the underlying common share during the year exceeds the exercise price of the stock option.

Convertible preferred shares are deemed dilutive when required dividends declared on each series of convertible preferred shares divided by the number of equivalent common shares, assuming such convertible preferred shares are converted to common shares, decreases the basic EPS. As such, the diluted EPS is calculated by dividing our consolidated net income attributable to common shareholders (consolidated net income, adding back any dividends and/or other charges recognized for the year related to the dilutive convertible preferred shares classified as liability, less dividends on non-dilutive preferred shares except for dividends on preferred stock subject to mandatory redemption) by the weighted average number of common shares excluding the weighted average number of common shares held as treasury shares, and including the common shares equivalent arising from the conversion of the dilutive convertible preferred shares and from the mandatory tender offer for all remaining Digitel shares.

Series A to EE in 2009 were deemed dilutive based on a calculation of the required dividends of these preferred shares divided by the number of equivalent common shares assuming such preferred shares are convertible into common shares, including the effect of the treasury shares, and compared against the basic EPS. Since the amount of dividends on Series A to EE in 2011 and 2010 over its equivalent number of common shares increased the basic EPS, the Convertible Preferred Stock were deemed anti-dilutive.

Under the SRC, PLDT is required to conduct a mandatory tender offer for all the remaining Digitel shares, approximately 48.4% of the issued common stock of Digitel, held by the noncontrolling shareholders in connection with PLDT’s acquisition of 51.6% interest in Digitel from the seller-parties. On December 5, 2011, PLDT filed its tender offer report on Philippine SEC Form 19.1 setting forth the terms of the mandatory tender offer to purchase the remaining Digitel shares at the price of Php1.6033 per Digitel share, payable in the form of either PLDT shares issued at Php2,500 per share, or one PLDT common share for every 1,559.28 Digitel shares, or cash, at the option of noncontrolling Digitel shareholders, except for tendering shareholders residing outside the Philippines, who will only be paid in cash. The tender offer period commenced on December 7, 2011 and ended on January 16, 2012. The contingently issuable shares under the mandatory tender offer were considered in determining diluted earnings per share, which was calculated assuming all remaining Digitel shareholders would accept PLDT shares in response to the mandatory tender offer. See Note 13 – Business Combinations – PLDT’s Acquisition of Digitel.

Where the effect of the assumed conversion of the preferred shares and the exercise of all outstanding options have an anti-dilutive effect, basic and diluted EPS are stated at the same amount.

In 2008, the Board of Directors approved a share buyback program of up to five million shares of PLDT’s common stock, representing approximately 3% of PLDT’s total outstanding shares of common stock. We have acquired approximately 2.72 million shares of PLDT’s common stock, representing approximately 1% of PLDT’s outstanding shares of common stock, at a weighted average price of Php2,388 per share for a total consideration of Php6,505 million as at December 31, 2011, in accordance with the share buyback program. The effect of the share buyback program was considered in computing our basic and diluted earnings per common share for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. See Note 19 – Equity and Note 27 – Financial Assets and Liabilities for further discussion.

Interest capitalized to property, plant and equipment that qualified as borrowing costs amounted to Php648 million, Php710 million and Php691 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The average interest capitalization rates used were approximately 4%, 7% and 6% for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Our undepreciated capitalized net foreign exchange losses, which qualified as borrowing costs amounted to Php837 million and Php1,325 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. There were no additional capitalized foreign exchange differences, which qualified as borrowing costs for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, while net foreign exchange gains differences which qualified as deduction against borrowing costs for the year ended December 31, 2009 amounted to Php119 million.

The useful lives of our assets are estimated as follows:

Cable and wire facilities |  | 10 – 15 years
Central office equipment |  | 5 – 15 years
Cellular facilities |  | 3 – 10 years
Buildings |  | 25 years
Vehicles, furniture and other network equipment |  | 3 – 5 years
Information origination and termination equipment |  | 3 – 5 years
Leasehold improvements |  | 3 – 5 years
Land improvements |  | 10 years

Property, plant and equipment include the net carrying value of capitalized vehicles, furniture and other network equipment under financing leases amounting to Php6 million and Php4 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 20 – Interest-bearing Financial Liabilities.

Impairment of Smart’s Payphone Business

In September 2010, Smart recognized an impairment loss of Php92 milllion on its public telephone equipment, and engaged a third party contractor to operate and maintain its payphone business. Prior to the engagement of the third party contractor, an impairment test was conducted to assess net cash flows from the payphone business. The test result showed that the future net cash flows were not enough to recover the carrying value of the related assets over the useful life of such assets. The recoverable amount was determined based on value in use, calculated using cash flow projections covering a three-year period from 2011 to the end of the assets’ expected useful lives in 2013. The 7% pre-tax discount rate was applied to cash flow projections.

Impairment of Smart’s Certain Network Equipment and Facilities

In 2011, Smart recognized an impairment loss of Php8,457 million for certain network equipment and facilities which no longer efficiently support our network modernization program and have been identified for replacement. The modernization program is designed to enable the delivery and fulfillment of advanced capabilities to support multimedia services and upcoming technologies in our technology roadmap by substantially expanding capacity, enhancing capabilities and improving quality of experience to meet the increasing demand for cellular, and advanced broadband services in a highly competitive playing field. This program is expected to result in savings in operating expenses, as well as alignment of Smart and Digitel networks. The impairment loss recognized represents the net book value of these network equipment and facilities. See Note 3 – Management’s Use of Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions.

Investment of ePLDT in Philweb

In May 2006, ePLDT subscribed to newly issued common shares of Philweb, an Internet-based online gaming company, for an aggregate amount of Php503 million, representing 20% of the total outstanding capital stock of Philweb at a price of Php0.020 per share. Of the total subscription price, Php428 million was paid by ePLDT on the closing date. A portion of the unpaid subscription price amounting to Php25 million will be paid by ePLDT at the same time as the Philweb majority stockholders pay the remaining unpaid portion of the subscription pursuant to a general call on subscription to be made by Philweb’s Board of Directors. The remaining unpaid balance of Php50 million, which remains outstanding as at December 31, 2011, will be paid upon the lapse of certain post-closing price adjustment periods.

In October 2006, ePLDT acquired an additional 8,038 million shares of Philweb at a price of Php0.026 per share for an aggregate amount of Php209 million. As at December 31, 2011 and 2010, ePLDT’s equity interest in Philweb is 26.4%.

Philweb is primarily engaged in Internet-based online gaming, through its appointment as Principal Technology Service Provider under the Marketing Consultancy Agreement for Internet Sports Betting and Internet Casino with the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation, or PAGCOR. Philweb offers Internet Sports Betting in over 180 PAGCOR Internet Sports Betting Stations and over 180 Internet Casino Stations nationwide. The market value of ePLDT’s investment in Philweb amounted to Php5,093 million and Php5,358 million, based on quoted share price of Php15.36 and Php16.14 as at market closing on December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

On March 12, 2009, First Philippine Holdings Corporation, or FPHC, First Philippine Utilities Corporation, or FPUC, and Lopez, Inc., (collectively, the Lopez Group) and PLDT entered into an investment and cooperation agreement under which: (a) PLDT acquired, through PCEV as its designated affiliate, 223 million shares in Meralco representing approximately 20% of Meralco’s outstanding shares of common stock, for a cash consideration of Php20,070 million, or Php90 per share; and (b) PLDT and the Lopez Group agreed on certain governance matters, including the right of PLDT or its assignee to nominate certain senior management officers and members of the board of directors and board committees of Meralco.

As part of the transaction, PCEV and FPUC also entered into an exchangeable note agreement under which PCEV purchased an exchangeable note dated April 20, 2009, issued by FPUC, with a face value of Php2,000 million, exchangeable into approximately 22.2 million shares of common stock of Meralco, which form part of the 223 million shares or approximately 20% of Meralco’s voting common shares to be acquired by PCEV in the transaction. The exchange option was exercised simultaneously with the acquisition of such shares by PCEV. PCEV recognized a derivative asset of Php563 million on April 20, 2009 for the exchange option feature of the agreement. The residual amount of Php1,437 million was allocated as the value of the host contract of the exchangeable note. The derivative asset was subsequently carried at FVPL while the host contract was carried at amortized cost using EIR method.

On July 14, 2009, PCEV completed its acquisition of 223 million shares in Meralco for a cash consideration of Php18,070 million for the purchase of approximately 200.8 million shares and the conversion into approximately 22.2 million shares of an exchangeable note issued by FPUC with a market value, including its derivative option, of Php3,286 million. Thus, the investment in 223 million shares in Meralco was recorded at Php21,356 million and a gain of Php1,286 million was recognized on the exchangeable note, representing the mark-to-market gains of Php1,170 million from the derivative option and the amortization of the note’s discount of Php116 million. The acquisition of the shares was implemented through a special block sale/cross sale executed at the PSE.

PCEV engaged the services of an independent appraiser to determine the fair value of Meralco’s specific identifiable assets and liabilities and allocate the purchase price of PCEV’s investment in Meralco among the identified assets and liabilities based on fair value. Based on the final purchase price allocation, the difference of Php8,377 million between PCEV’s share on the total fair value of Meralco’s specific identifiable assets and liabilities and the total cost of PCEV’s investments was allocated as follows: (a) Php1,517 million for utility, plant and others; (b) Php320 million for investment properties; (c) Php36 million for investments in associates and joint ventures; (d) Php1,286 million for intangible assets particularly for franchise; (e) Php137 million for contingent liability; (f) Php1,295 million for deferred income tax liability; and (g) Php6,650 million for goodwill.

On March 30, 2010, PCEV reduced its investment in Meralco by Php15,083 million, the proportionate carrying amount of the 154.2 million shares of common stock of Meralco sold and transferred to Beacon. PCEV continued to use the equity method to account for its remaining investment in 68.8 million of Meralco’s common shares until these shares were transferred to Beacon on October 25, 2011. The transfer of the Meralco common shares to Beacon in March 2010 and October 2011 is further discussed under “Investment in Joint Ventures – Transfer of PCEV’s Equity Interest in Meralco” section. PCEV no longer holds any share in Meralco with the transfer of the remaining 68.8 million shares of common stock of Meralco common on October 25, 2011. The carrying value of PCEV’s direct investment in Meralco amounted to Php6,733 million with market value of Php15,686 million as at December 31, 2010 based on quoted share price of Php228 per share.

Investment of ACeS Philippines in AIL

##### Table of Contents

AIL has incurred recurring significant operating losses, negative operating cash flows, and significant levels of debt. The financial condition of AIL was partly due to the National Service Providers’, or NSPs, inability to generate the amount of revenues originally expected as the growth in subscriber numbers has been significantly lower than budgeted. These factors raised substantial doubt about AIL’s ability to continue as a going concern. On this basis, we recognized a full impairment provision of Php1,896 million in respect of our investment in AIL in 2003.

Unrecognized share in net income of AIL amounted to Php57 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, while unrecognized share in net losses of AIL amounted to Php35 million and Php11 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Share in net cumulative losses amounting to Php2,035 million and Php2,102 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, were not recognized as we do not have any legal or constructive obligation to pay for such losses and have not made any payments on behalf of AIL.

See Note 24 – Related Party Transactions and Note 27 – Financial Assets and Liabilities for further details as to the contractual relationships with respect to AIL.

Investment of Digitel in DCI and ANPC

In December 2000, Digitel, Pacnet Network (Philippines), Inc., or PNPI, (formerly Asia Global Crossing Ltd., or AGC) and BT Group O/B Broadband Infrastructure Group Ltd., or BIG, entered into a Joint Venture Agreement, or JVA, under which the parties agreed to form DCI. The proposed 40-40-20 joint venture, or JV, would develop, provide and market backhaul network services, among others.

On April 19, 2001, after BIG withdrew from the proposed JV, Digitel and PNPI formed ANPC to replace BIG. Digitel contributed US$1.4 million, or Php69.5 million, for a 60% equity interest in ANPC. On June 28, 2001, DCI was incorporated with Digitel, PNPI and ANPC owning 40%, 40% and 20%, respectively of the JV. Digitel contributed US$4.4 million, or Php222 million, for a 40% equity interest in DCI. Effectively, Digitel has 52% direct and indirect ownership in DCI with combined investment cost of US$5.8 million.

Following PLDT’s acquisition of a controlling stake in Digitel, PNPI, on November 4, 2011, sent a notice to exercise its Call Right under Section 6.3 of the JVA, which provides for a Call Right exerciseable by PNPI following the occurrence of a Digitel change in control. Digitel management is currently evaluating and reviewing the proper disposition of this investment.

As at December 31, 2011, the investment in DCI and ANPC has a carrying value of Php92 million and nil, respectively.

Investments in Joint Ventures

Transfer of PCEV’s Equity Interest in Meralco

On March 1, 2010, PCEV, MPIC, and Beacon, entered into an Omnibus Agreement, or OA. Beacon, formerly known as Rightlight Holdings, Inc., was organized with the sole purpose of holding the respective shareholdings of PCEV and MPIC in Meralco. PCEV and MPIC are Philippine affiliates of First Pacific and both held equity interest in Meralco. Under the OA, PCEV and MPIC have agreed to set out their mutual agreement in respect of, among other matters, the capitalization, organization, conduct of business and the extent of their participation in the management of the affairs of Beacon.

Investment in Beacon

Prior to the transactions contemplated under the OA, MPIC beneficially owned the entire outstanding capital stock of Beacon, consisting of 25,000 common shares of Beacon, with a total par value of Php25,000.

On April 29, 2010, the Philippine SEC approved Beacon’s application to increase its authorized capital stock to Php5,000 million consisting of 3 billion common shares with par value of Php1 per share and 2 billion preferred shares with par value of Php1 per share. The preferred shares of Beacon are non-voting, not convertible to common shares or any shares of any class of Beacon, have no pre-emptive rights to subscribe to any share or convertible debt securities or warrants issued or sold by Beacon. The preference shareholder is entitled to liquidation preference and yearly cumulative dividends at the rate of 7% of the issue value subject to: (a) availability of unrestricted retained earnings; and (b) dividend payment restrictions imposed by Beacon’s bank creditors.

Under the OA, each of PCEV and MPIC agreed to subscribe to 1,156.5 million common shares of Beacon, for a subscription price of Php20 per share or a total of Php23,130 million. PCEV and MPIC also agreed that their resulting equity after such subscriptions and PCEV’s purchase from MPIC of 12,500 Beacon common shares will be 50% each of the outstanding common shares of Beacon.

MPIC additionally agreed to subscribe to 801 million shares of Beacon’s preferred stock entitled to liquidation preference and yearly cumulative dividends at the rate of 7% for a subscription price of Php10 per share or a total of Php8,010 million.

The completion of the subscription of MPIC to 1,156.5 million common shares and 801 million preferred shares of Beacon was subject to the following conditions, all of which have been satisfied: (a) the approval of MPIC’s Board of Directors, which was obtained on March 1, 2010; (b) the approval of the shareholders of First Pacific, which was obtained on March 30, 2010; and (c) the full payment of the subscription price, which was made on March 30, 2010. Consequently, on March 30, 2010, MPIC completed its subscription to 1,156.5 million common shares of Beacon and approximately 801 million preferred shares of Beacon in consideration of: (1) the transfer of 163.6 million Meralco shares at a price of Php150 per share, or Php24,540, million in the aggregate; and (2) Php6,600 million in cash, as further described below in “Transfer of Meralco Shares to Beacon”.

The completion of the subscription of PCEV to 1,156.5 million common shares of Beacon was subject to the following conditions, all of which have been satisfied: (a) the approval of PCEV’s Board of Directors, which was obtained on March 1, 2010; (b) the approval of the shareholders of First Pacific, which was obtained on March 30, 2010; (c) the approval of the shareholders of PCEV, which was obtained on May 7, 2010; and (d) the full payment of the subscription price, which was made on May 12, 2010.

##### Table of Contents

The subscription price of PCEV’s and MPIC’s subscription to Beacon shares was offset in full (in the case of PCEV) and in part (in the case of MPIC) against the consideration for the transfer of Meralco shares held by PCEV and MPIC as described in “Transfer of Meralco Shares to Beacon” section below. In addition, MPIC settled its remaining balance in cash. On May 12, 2010, PCEV also completed the purchase from MPIC of 12,500 shares or 50% of the 25,000 Beacon common shares originally owned by MPIC.

On October 19, 2011, PCEV’s Board of Directors approved the transfer to Beacon of PCEV’s remaining 68.8 million shares of common stock of Meralco for a total cash consideration of Php15,136 million and a subscription of 1,199 million Beacon preferred shares entitled to a liquidation preference and cumulative annual dividends of 7% for the same amount in cash.

The transfer of the Meralco shares was implemented through a cross sale in the PSE on October 25, 2011. PCEV and Beacon entered into a Subscription Agreement on October 20, 2011 for preferred shares.

Since both transactions involve entities with common shareholders, a deferred gain on transfer of the Meralco shares amounting to Php8,145 million was recognized and presented as an adjustment to the investment cost of the preferred shares. Similar to the deferred gain on the transfer of the 154.2 million shares of common stock of Meralco, the deferred gain will only be realized upon the disposal of the shares to a third party. The carrying value of investment in preferred shares amounted to Php6,991 million was presented as part of available-for-sale financial assets in our consolidated statement of financial position as at December 31, 2011.

On December 2, 2011, PCEV’s Board of Directors approved a further subscription of 135 million Beacon common shares for a total cash consideration of Php2,700 million. PCEV and Beacon entered into a subscription agreement on January 20, 2012 for said common shares. Also, on the same date, MPIC subscribed to 135 million Beacon common shares for a total cash consideration of Php2,700 million.

Transfer of Meralco Shares to Beacon

Alongside with the subscription to the Beacon shares pursuant to the OA, Beacon agreed to purchase 154.2 million and 163.6 million Meralco shares, or the Transferred Shares, from PCEV and MPIC, respectively, for a consideration of Php150 per share or a total of Php23,130 million for the PCEV Meralco shares and Php24,540 million for the MPIC Meralco shares.

The completion of the sale of the MPIC Meralco shares to Beacon was subject to the following conditions, all of which have been satisfied: (a) the approval of MPIC’s Board of Directors, which was obtained on March 1, 2010; (b) the approval of the Board of Directors of First Pacific, which was obtained on March 1, 2010; (c) the approval of the shareholders of First Pacific, which was obtained on March 30, 2010; and (d) the release of the pledge over the MPIC Meralco shares, which was completed on March 30, 2010. Consequently, on March 30, 2010, MPIC transferred 163.6 million Meralco shares to Beacon at a price of Php150 per share for a total consideration of Php24,540 million.

The completion of the sale of the PCEV Meralco shares to Beacon was subject to the following conditions, all of which have been satisfied: (a) the approval of PCEV’s Board of Directors, which was obtained on March 1, 2010; (b) the approval of the Board of Directors of First Pacific, which was obtained on March 1, 2010; (c) the approval of the shareholders of First Pacific, which was obtained on March 30, 2010; and (d) the approval of the shareholders of PCEV, which was obtained on May 7, 2010. Consequently, on May 12, 2010, PCEV transferred 154.2 million Meralco shares to Beacon at a price of Php150 per share for a total consideration of Php23,130 million.

The transfer of legal title to the Meralco shares was implemented through a special block sale/cross sale in the PSE.

##### Table of Contents

Although PCEV secured the approval of its shareholders only on May 7, 2010, such approval was deemed to be a formality as Smart owns 99.5% of PCEV’s capital stock. Consequently, upon receipt of all other required approvals under the OA on March 30, 2010, including that of the shareholders of First Pacific, PCEV recognized a Php15,083 million investment (initially recognized as deposit for future stock subscription, see discussion above) in Beacon representing the proportionate carrying cost of the 154.2 million Meralco shares transferred to Beacon under the OA. PCEV recognized a deferred gain of Php8,047 million for the difference between the Php23,130 million transfer price of the Meralco shares to Beacon and the Php15,083 million carrying amount in PCEV’s books of the Meralco shares transferred. The deferred gain, presented as a reduction in PCEV’s investment in Beacon, will only be realized upon the disposal of the investment to a third party.

Subject to rights over certain property dividends that may be declared or distributed in respect of the approximately 317.8 million Transferred Shares, which will be assigned to FPHC if the Call Option (as discussed below), is exercised, the rights, title and interest transferred to Beacon by MPIC and PCEV in respect of the approximately 317.8 million Transferred Shares includes: (a) all shares issued by Meralco by way of stock dividends on the Transferred Shares from March 1, 2010; (b) all property or cash dividends declared or paid on the Transferred Shares from March 1, 2010; (c) all other rights accruing on the Transferred Shares from March 1, 2010; and (d) the proceeds of all of the foregoing.

On October 19, 2011, PCEV’s Board of Directors approved the transfer to Beacon of PCEV’s remaining investment in 68.8 million of Meralco’s common shares for a total cash consideration of Php15,136 million. The transfer of the Meralco shares was implemented through a cross sale in the PSE on October 25, 2011.

Call Option

Under the OA, MPIC assigned its right to acquire the call option, or the Call Option, over 74.7 million common shares of Meralco held by FPHC, or the Option Shares, to Beacon. As a result of this assignment, Beacon and FPHC executed an Option Agreement dated March 1, 2010 pursuant to which FPHC granted the Call Option over the Option Shares to Beacon.

The Call Option is exercisable at the option of Beacon during the period from March 15, 2010 until midnight of May 15, 2010. The exercise price for the Option Shares is Php300 per share or an aggregate exercise price of Php22,410 million. Beacon exercised the Call Option on March 30, 2010 and FPHC transferred the 74.7 million shares of Meralco common stock to Beacon in consideration of the payment by Beacon of Php22,410 million in cash on March 30, 2010.

Subject to rights over certain property dividends that may be declared or payable in respect of the 74.7 million shares of Meralco common stock, which are retained by FPHC following the Call Option exercise, the rights, title and interest transferred to Beacon by FPHC in respect of the Option Shares includes: (a) all shares issued by Meralco by way of stock dividends on the Option Shares from March 1, 2010; (b) all property or cash dividends declared or paid on the Transferred Shares from March 1, 2010; (c) all other rights accruing on the Transferred Shares from March 1, 2010; and (d) the proceeds of any sale or disposition of any of the foregoing.

With respect to the approximately 317.8 million Transferred Shares, and the 74.7 million Option Shares transferred by FPHC to Beacon pursuant to the Call Option and the 68.8 million shares transferred by PCEV to Beacon in October 2011, FPHC has the benefit of being assigned, or retaining in the case of the Option Shares, certain property dividends that may be declared on such shares.

Governance Arrangements

Beacon, PCEV and MPIC have also agreed on certain corporate governance matters, including Board composition, election of officers, shareholders’ action, representation to the Meralco Board, nomination of the Meralco Board Committees, and nomination of Meralco officers. The corporate governance agreements and Beacon equity structure resulted in a jointly controlled entity.

##### Table of Contents

In 2010, Beacon engaged the services of an independent appraiser to provide the fair market values of the operating equity investments, fixed assets and intangible assets of Meralco at the time of Beacon’s acquisition of its Meralco shares and allocate the purchase price of Beacon’s investment in Meralco among the identifiable assets and liabilities based on fair value. Based on the final purchase price allocation, the difference of Php50,596 million between Beacon’s share of the total fair value of Meralco’s specific identifiable assets and liabilities and the total cost of Beacon’s investment was allocated as follows: (a) Php2,521 million for utility, plant and others;

(b) Php341 million for investment properties; (c) Php59 million for investment in associates and joint ventures;

The net assets recognized at the date of acquisition were based on provisional fair values of the assets owned by Laserwords, which will be determined through an independent valuation. The result of this valuation had not been received as at the date the 2011 consolidated financial statements were approved for issuance by the Board of Directors.

The provisional goodwill of Php849 million pertains to the assembled workforce and existing contracts with the customers for publishing services. The provisional goodwill was not tested for impairment since there were no identified indicators of impairment.

Our consolidated revenues would have increased by Php804 million and our net income would have decreased by Php8 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 had the acquisition of Laserwords actually taken place on January 1, 2011. Total revenues and net income of Laserwords included in our consolidated income statement from November 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011 amounted to Php129 million and Php26 million, respectively.

ePLDT’s Acquisition of ePDS

On August 24, 2011, Quantium and ePLDT entered into a Deed of Sale of Shares whereby Quantium sold an aggregate 6 million of its common shares equivalent to 17% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of ePDS, to ePLDT for a cash consideration of Php32 million. This additional acquisition of ePDS shares increased ePLDT’s shareholding in ePDS from 50% equity interest with a carrying value of Php16.5 million to 67% equity interest with a total carrying value at the time of acquisition of Php49 million. Previously, ePLDT accounted for its investment in ePDS as investment in joint venture.

The purchase price consideration has been allocated to the assets and liabilities on the basis of fair values as follows at date of acquisition:

Noncontrolling interests represent interest not owned by ePLDT, which is measured at proportionate share in fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities acquired at the date of acquisition.

The fair value and gross amount of trade and other receivables amounted to Php39.9 million and Php40.3 million, respectively. The amount of allowance for impairment for uncollectible trade and other receivables amounted to Php0.4 million.

The goodwill of Php26 million pertains to the fair value of ePDS’ printing and enveloping business. The goodwill was not tested for impairment since there were no identified indicators of impairment.

No gain was recognized from revaluation of ePLDT’s previously held interest of 50% in ePDS since the carrying value of investment is equal to the fair value at the time of acquisition of noncontrolling interest.

Our consolidated revenues and net income would have increased by Php97 million and Php10 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2011 had the acquisition of ePDS actually taken place on January 1, 2011. Total revenues and net income of ePDS included in our consolidated income statement from August 24, 2011 to December 31, 2011 amounted to Php65 million and Php7 million, respectively.

PLDT’s Acquisition of Digitel

On March 29, 2011, the Board of Directors of PLDT and JGS approved the acquisition by PLDT of JGS’s and certain other seller-parties’ ownership interest in Digitel, comprising of: (i) 3.28 billion common shares representing approximately 51.6% of the issued common stock of Digitel; (ii) zero-coupon convertible bonds issued by Digitel and its subsidiary to JGS and its subsidiary, which are convertible into approximately 18.6 billion common shares of Digitel assuming a conversion date of June 30, 2011 and an exchange rate of Php43.405 per U.S. dollar; and (iii) intercompany advances made by JGS to Digitel in the total principal amount plus accrued interest of Php34.1 billion as at December 31, 2010, or the Enterprise Assets. Digitel operates a fixed line business in certain parts of the country and is the 100% owner of DMPI, which is engaged in the mobile telecommunications business and owns the brand Sun Cellular.

PLDT agreed to pay JGS and certain other seller-parties Php69.2 billion, which will be settled by the issuance of one new PLDT common share for every Php2,500 (equivalent to 27.7 million new PLDT common shares) consideration payable for the Enterprise Assets. In order to aid the board of PLDT in discharging their fiduciary duties, PLDT engaged an independent financial advisor to review the transaction and render a fairness opinion on the transaction and the consideration payable by PLDT. The independent financial advisor completed its review and concluded that the acquisition of the Enterprise Assets is fair and reasonable and in the interest of PLDT shareholders as a whole.

The completion of the acquisition was subject to the procurement of certain regulatory and other approvals, including: (i) the approval by the NTC of the sale or transfer of JGS and the other seller-parties’ Digitel shares representing more than 40% of Digitel’s issued and outstanding common stock; (ii) the confirmation by the Philippine SEC of the valuation of the Enterprise Assets; (iii) the approval by the PSE of the block sale of the Digitel shares; (iv) the confirmation by the Philippine SEC that the issuance of the PLDT common shares to JGS and the other seller-parties is exempt from the registration requirement of the SRC; and (v) all other necessary approvals under applicable laws and regulations; and the approval by the common stockholders of PLDT for the issuance of the PLDT common shares as payment for the purchase price of the Enterprise Assets and the Digitel shares which shall have been tendered pursuant to the mandatory tender offer.

##### Table of Contents

In addition, the sale of the Digitel shares owned by the seller-parties was subject to the consent of certain creditors of Digitel and DMPI. Digitel and DMPI have outstanding long-term debts that had been guaranteed by JGS. The loans and guarantees contained representations and covenants applicable to JGS including that on the ownership of JGS in Digitel. Digitel and DMPI obtained the required consents of the lenders and export credit agencies both for the transfer of ownership of Digitel and the replacement of JGS by PLDT as guarantor for these loans.

The acquisition was completed on October 26, 2011 following the issuance by the Philippine SEC on July 29, 2011 of the confirmations referred to in clauses (ii) and (iv) above, or the Decision, by the NTC on October 26, 2011 of the approval referred to in clause (i) above, and by the PSE on October 26, 2011 of the approval referred to in clause (iii) above. PLDT’s common shareholders had earlier approved the issuance of PLDT common shares as payment for the Enterprise Assets during the PLDT stockholder’s meeting held on June 14, 2011.

As part of the NTC Decision, the NTC also approved the divestment plan presented by PLDT, which covers the following commitments:

| • |  | CURE will sell its Red Mobile business to Smart consisting of its subscriber base, brand and fixed assets;

| • |  | Smart will sell all of its rights and interests in CURE whose remaining assets will consist of its congressional franchise, 10 MHz of 3G frequency in the 2100 band, or the Affected Frequency, and related permits, or the Divestment Sale; and

| • |  | PLDT will have a period of nine months reckoned from the date of promulgation of the Decision, or the Transition Period, to effect the orderly migration of CURE’s customers and an orderly transfer of CURE’s assets to Smart with the least disruption and degradation of service to CURE’s existing customers.

The Divestment Sale will be made under the supervision and control of the NTC and will be effected through a competitive bidding among duly enfranchised and qualified public telecommunication entities. A minimum price will be prescribed to allow Smart to recover its investment in acquiring, developing and operating CURE, or the Cost Recovery Amount. In the event that the actual proceeds from the Divestment Sale exceed the Cost Recovery Amount, PLDT will pay the NTC, as fee for supervising the Divestment Sale, at least 50% of such excess less government fees and taxes payable as a consequence of the Divestment Sale.

The Divestment Sale will be conducted within six months after the Transition Period, provided the Decision shall have become final and executory. However, in the event that there will be a delay in the implementation of the Divestment Sale by reason of appeal or any legal challenge against the Decision, CURE will continue to pay spectrum user’s fee and other related fees which will form part of the Cost Recovery Amount. While the Divestment Sale is pending, the PLDT Group will not use the Affected Frequency.

As payment for the Enterprise Assets, PLDT issued approximately 27.7 million common shares with a total issue value of around Php69 billion to the seller-parties. Said shares are subject to a lock-up period of one (1) year during which JGS and the other sellers may not transfer or encumber such PLDT shares without the consent of PLDT. PLDT granted consents to the sale by JGS of 5.81 million and 4.56 million PLDT shares under separate option agreements that JGS had entered into with a Philippine associate of First Pacific and NTT DOCOMO, respectively. Following the sale of those shares in November 2011, the JG Summit Group, First Pacific Group and its Philippine affiliates, and NTT Group (NTT DOCOMO together with NTTC-UK) owned approximately 8%, 26% and 21% of PLDT’s outstanding common shares, respectively.

On December 8, 2011, PLDT exercised the conversion option for 4 billion Digitel common shares with stated value of Php4 billion comprising 25% of the total amount of increase in Digitel’s authorized capital stock, which was paid through the assignment by PLDT to Digitel of: (i) 2013 Convertible Bonds issued by Digitel, with redemption value of US$25 million or Php1,087 million as of the conversion date of December 8, 2011; and (ii) 15.6% of its 2014 Exchangeable Bonds issued by DCPL with redemption value of US$66 million, or Php2,913 million, as of the exchange date of December 8, 2011. As a result of this partial conversion and exchange by PLDT of bonds into 4 billion Digitel common shares, PLDT’s equity interest increased from 51.6% to 70.2% of the outstanding common stock of Digitel as at January 12, 2012.

Under the SRC, PLDT is required to conduct a mandatory tender offer for all the remaining Digitel shares approximately 48.4% of the issued common stock of Digitel, held by the noncontrolling shareholders in

##### Table of Contents

connection with PLDT’s acquisition of 51.6% interest in Digitel from the seller-parties. On December 5, 2011, PLDT filed its tender offer report on Philippine SEC Form 19.1 setting forth the terms of the mandatory tender offer to purchase the remaining Digitel shares at the price of Php1.6033 per Digitel share, payable in the form of either PLDT shares issued at Php2,500 per share, or one PLDT common share for every 1,559.28 Digitel shares, or cash, at the option of noncontrolling Digitel shareholders, except for tendering shareholders residing outside the Philippines, who will only be paid in cash. The tender offer period commenced on December 7, 2011 and ended on January 16, 2012. The contingently issuable shares under the mandatory tender offer were considered in determining diluted earnings per share, which was calculated assuming all remaining Digitel’s shareholders would accept PLDT shares in response to the mandatory tender offer. See Note 8 – Earnings Per Common Share.

On January 25, 2012, Digitel filed for voluntary delisting of its shares with the PSE, since its public ownership level has fallen below the minimum 10% required by the PSE. On February 22, 2012, the PSE granted the petition for voluntary delisting and accordingly ordered the delisting of the shares of Digitel from the Official Registry of the PSE effective March 26, 2012. Subject to the payment of the required voluntary delisting fee, Digitel shares shall no longer be tradable on the PSE effective March 26, 2012.

On February 7, 2012, PLDT’s Board of Directors authorized the exchange of 78.4% of Exchangeable Bonds due 2014 issued by DCPL with redemption value of US$340 million, or Php14,641 million, in exchange for 14,641 million Digitel common shares. In various dates from February 1 to March 22, 2012, PLDT purchased from the open market 72.3 million common shares of Digitel. As a result of the tender offer, open market acquisitions, and conversions and exchanges described above, we held 99.5% of the outstanding capital of Digitel as at March 22, 2012.

PLDT’s acquisition of equity interest, convertible bonds and advances owned by JGS Group, and the mandatory tender offer are linked transactions and was accounted for as a single business combination transaction.

The consideration of Php69,429 million is the sum of the fair value of PLDT’s newly issued common shares of 27.7 million shares with fair market value per share of Php2,330 and an aggregate value in the amount of Php64,492 in exchange for the equity interest, convertible bonds and advances owned by JGS Group, and the fair value of financial instruments based on the statutory put option for the mandatory tender offer of Php4,937 million. The fair value of PLDT’s newly issued shares is valued at Php2,330 per share, which is the quoted fair market value per share as at the market closing on October 26, 2011, the Closing Date of the sale transaction, or the Closing Date. Incidental cost related to acquisition amounting to Php599 million was recognized as expense.

As a result of the transaction, provisional goodwill amounting to Php68,340 million, representing the difference between the total consideration of Php69,429 million and the provisional value of net assets acquired of Php1,089 million, was recognized.

The purchase price consideration has been allocated to the assets and liabilities on the basis of provisional values at the date of acquisition as follows:

The net assets recognized at the date of acquisition were based on provisional fair values of the assets owned by Digitel, which will be determined through an independent valuation. The result of this valuation had not been received as at the date the 2011 consolidated financial statements were approved for issuance by the Board of Directors.

The fair value and gross amount of trade and other receivables amounted to Php1,470 million and Php3,948 million, respectively. The amount of allowance for impairment for uncollectible trade and other receivables amounted to Php2,478 million.

The provisional goodwill of Php68,340 million pertains to the expected synergies once the wireless and fixed line businesses of Digitel is integrated into the PLDT Group. The provisional goodwill was not tested for impairment since the acquisition occurred in the fourth quarter of 2011 and there was no material change in Digitel’s business since obtaining the fairness opinion from an independent financial advisor. Expected synergies arising from the acquisition includes cost efficiencies attainable from elimination of redundant infrastructure and facilities between PLDT, Smart and Digitel, and expected increase in revenue from current market share of PLDT, Smart and Digitel due to enhanced connectivity and integrated products and services.

Our consolidated revenues would have increased by Php18,119 million, while our consolidated net income would have increased by Php711 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 had the acquisition of Digitel actually taken place on January 1, 2011. Total revenues and net loss of Digitel included in our consolidated income statement from October 26, 2011 to December 31, 2011 amounted to Php3,845 million and Php606 million, respectively.

Impairment Testing of Goodwill

Goodwill from Acquisition of SBI, CURE, Airborne Access, PDSI and Chikka

The organizational structure of Smart and its subsidiaries is designed to monitor financial operations based on fixed line and wireless segmentation. Management provides guidelines and decisions on resource allocation, such as continuing or disposing of asset and operations by evaluating the performance of each segment through review and analysis of available financial information on the fixed and wireless segments. As at December 31, 2011, Smart’s goodwill comprised of goodwill resulting from Smart’s acquisition of SBI in 2004, CURE in 2008, SBI’s acquisition of a 99.4% equity interest in Airborne Access from ePLDT in 2008 and Smart’s acquisition of PDSI and Chikka in 2009. The test for recoverability of Smart’s goodwill was applied to the wireless asset group, which represents the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash inflows from other groups of assets and liabilities.

Although revenue streams may be segregated among Smart, CURE, SBI and PDSI through subscribers availing themselves of their respective cellular (for Smart and CURE) and wireless broadband (for SBI and PDSI) services, the cost items and cash flows are difficult to carve out due largely to the significant portion of shared and common-used network/platform. In the case of CURE, it provides cellular services to its subscribers using Smart’s 2G network. SBI, on the other hand, provides broadband wireless access to its subscribers using Smart’s cellular base stations and fiber optic and IP backbone, as well as the Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access technology of PDSI. With the common use of wireless assets of Smart in providing 3G cellular and wireless broadband access, the lowest level of assets of CURE, SBI and PDSI for which cash flows are clearly identifiable from other groups of assets is Smart’s wireless business segment. On the other hand, Chikka’s mobile applications and content are developed mainly for the cellular subscribers of Smart and CURE.

The recoverable amount of this segment had been determined using the value in use approach calculated using cash flow projections based on the financial budgets approved by the Board of Directors, covering a five-year period from 2012 to 2016. The pre-tax discount rate applied to cash flow projections is 8.8% and cash flows beyond the five-year period are determined using a 2.5% growth rate that is the same as the long-term average growth rate for the telecommunications industry.

With regard to the assessment of value-in-use of the entire operations, management believes that no reasonably possible change in the discount of 1% would cause the carrying value of the unit to materially exceed its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount exceeded the carrying amount of the CGU, which as a result, no impairment was recognized by Smart for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.

Goodwill from Acquisition of SPi and its Subsidiaries, CyMed, Springfield Service Corporation, or Springfield, and Laguna Medical Systems, Inc., or Laguna Medical

The goodwill acquired through the SPi, CyMed, Springfield and Laguna Medical transactions was allocated for impairment testing to each of the CGUs of those businesses, namely medical transcription, content solutions, medical billing and medical coding, respectively. The recoverable amount of goodwill was determined using the value in use approach. Value in use was based on the cash flow projections of the most recent financial budgets and forecasts approved by the Board of Directors, which management believes are reasonable and are management’s best estimate of the ranges of economic conditions that will exist over the remaining useful life of the asset. The pre-tax discount rate of 15% was applied based on the weighted average cost of capital adjusted for the difference in currency and specific risks associated with the assets or businesses of such CGUs.

The recoverable amount exceeded the carrying amount of the CGU, which as a result, no impairment was recognized by SPi for the year ended December 31, 2011. ePLDT recognized an impairment losses of Php905 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 pertaining to the medical transcription business of SPi and CyMed.

Goodwill from Acquisition of Level Up!

Goodwill acquired from our acquisition in 2006 of a 60% equity interest in Level Up! was tested for impairment. ePLDT recognized an impairment charge of Php48 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 pertaining to the goodwill from acquisition of Level Up! based on the expected selling price of Level Up!. See Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for the related discussion on the sale of investment in Level Up!.

Goodwill from Acquisition of Digital Paradise

Goodwill acquired from the acquisition of Digital Paradise was tested for impairment based on the recoverable amount of the CGU where recoverable amount was determined based on the cash flow projections on the most recent financial budgets and forecasts approved by the Board of Directors. The pre-tax discount rate applied was 22% which was based on the weighted average cost of capital. ePLDT recognized full impairment provision of Php85 million as at December 31, 2009. See Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for the related discussion on the sale of investment in Digital Paradise.

Goodwill from Acquisition of AGS

Goodwill acquired from the acquisition of AGS was tested for impairment based on the recoverable amount of the CGU, determined based on the cash flow projections of the most recent financial budgets and forecasts approved by the Board of Directors. The pre-tax discount rate applied was 22%, which was based on the weighted average cost of capital. ePLDT recognized full impairment provision of Php216 million as at December 31, 2010.

Cash in banks earn interest at prevailing bank deposit rates. Temporary cash investments are made for varying periods of up to three months depending on our immediate cash requirements, and earn interest at the prevailing temporary cash investment rates.

2009 and of ProtoStar’s ProtoStar II satellite in December 2009, the proceeds of which were to be distributed to ProtoStar’s secured lenders and the balance, if any, to its unsecured lenders. During the pendency of the proceedings, however, the unsecured creditors challenged the perfection of the secured lenders’ security over the satellites. Thereafter, settlement negotiations were commenced among ProtoStar, the secured lenders and the unsecured creditors. The parties reached a settlement, the terms of which are embodied in ProtoStar’s “Plan of Reorganization.” This Plan was confirmed by the bankruptcy court at a hearing held on October 6, 2010 in Delaware. The filing of the bankruptcy case and the eventual sale of the ProtoStar I satellite constitute a breach by ProtoStar of the Space Segment Services Agreement. On this basis, we recognized a full impairment provision of US$27.5 million, or Php1,304 million, in 2009 with respect to our Priority Deposit to ProtoStar under the Space Segment Services Agreement. On October 22, 2010, PLDT received approximately US$3.3 million as settlement of its claim and recognized such as “Other income” in the consolidated income statements. The remaining amount of US$24.2 million, for which full provision was made in 2009, was permanently written-off in our consolidated statement of financial position.

Preferred Stock

On January 26, 2010, the Board of Directors designated 100,000 shares of preferred stock as Series II 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock to be issued from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2012. There were 370 shares of Series II 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock issued as at December 31, 2011, while there were no issued Series II 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock as at December 31, 2010.

The preferred stock is non-voting, except as specifically provided by law, and is preferred as to liquidation.

The Series A to II 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock earns cumulative dividends at an annual rate of 10%. After the lapse of one year from the last day of the year of issuance of a particular Series of 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, any holder of such series may convert all or any of the shares of 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock held by him into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock of PLDT, at a conversion price equivalent to 10% below the average of the high and low daily sales price of a share of Common Stock on the PSE, or if there have been no such sales on the PSE on any day, the average of the bid and the ask prices of a share of Common Stock of PLDT at the end of such day on such Exchange, in each such case averaged over a period of 30 consecutive trading days prior to the conversion date, but in no case shall the conversion price be less than the price set by the Board of Directors which, as at December 31, 2011

259

##### Table of Contents

were Php5.00 each per share. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable at any time upon conversion of one share of the PLDT Subscriber Investment Plan, or SIP, or the 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock is determined by dividing Php10.00 by the then applicable conversion price.

In case the shares of Common Stock outstanding are at anytime subdivided into a greater or consolidated into a lesser number of shares, then the minimum conversion price per share of Common Stock will be proportionately decreased or increased, as the case may be, and in the case of a stock dividend, such price will be proportionately decreased, provided, however, that in every case the minimum conversion price shall not be less than the par value per share of Common Stock. In the event the relevant effective date for any such subdivision or consolidation of shares of stock dividend occurs during the period of 30 trading days preceding the presentation of any shares of 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock for conversion, a similar adjustment will be made in the sales prices applicable to the trading days prior to such effective date utilized in calculating the conversion price of the shares presented for conversion.

In case of any other reclassification or change of outstanding shares of Common Stock, or in case of any consolidation or merger of PLDT with or into another corporation, the Board of Directors shall make such provisions, if any, for adjustment of the minimum conversion price and the sale price utilized in calculating the conversion price as the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, shall deem appropriate.

At PLDT’s option, the Series A to II 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock are redeemable at par value plus accrued dividends five years after the year of issuance.

The Series IV Cumulative Non-convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock earns cumulative dividends at an annual rate of 13.5% based on the paid-up subscription price. It is redeemable at the option of PLDT at any time one year after subscription and at the actual amount paid for such stock, plus accrued dividends.

On July 5, 2011, the Board of Directors of PLDT approved the amendments to the Seventh Article of PLDT’s Articles of Incorporation consisting of the sub-classification of its authorized Preferred Capital Stock into: 150 million shares of Voting Preferred Stock with a par value of Php1.00 each, and 807.5 million shares of Non-Voting Serial Preferred Stock with a par value of Php10.00 each, and other conforming amendments (the “Amendments”). The shares of voting preferred stock may be issued, owned, or transferred only to or by: (a) a citizen of the Philippines or a domestic partnership or association wholly-owned by citizens of the Philippines; (b) a corporation organized under the laws of the Philippines of which at least 60% of the capital stock entitled to vote is owned and held by citizens of the Philippines and at least 60% of the board of directors of such corporation are citizens of the Philippines; and (c) a trustee of funds for pension or other employee retirement or separation benefits, where the trustee qualifies under paragraphs (a) and (b) above and at least 60% of the funds accrue to the benefit of citizens of the Philippines. The holders of voting preferred stock will have voting rights at any meeting of the stockholders of PLDT for the election of directors and for all other purposes, with one vote in respect of each share of voting preferred stock.

The Special Meeting of Stockholders scheduled on September 20, 2011 for purposes of presenting and obtaining stockholders’ approval of the Amendments, or the Special Meeting, was cancelled by the Board of Directors due to an anticipated lack of quorum. Based on the validated and tabulated proxies reported by PLDT’s Transfer Agents, the corporate secretary of PLDT determined that: (1) holders of shares equivalent to 73.27% of the total outstanding common stock had given valid proxies to be represented and vote their shares in the Special Meeting; and (2) the number of shares of preferred stock necessary to bring the total shares represented in person or by proxy and to vote at the Special Meeting to two-thirds of total outstanding capital stock, being the quorum required for the Special Meeting, would most likely not be secured. Under the Corporation Code, holders of preferred shares are also entitled to vote on significant corporate actions, such as the amendment of the Articles of Incorporation, which is the principal item in the agenda for the Special Meeting.

In the Special Meeting of Stockholders held on March 22, 2012, the Amendments to the Articles were approved by the holders of more than two thirds (2/3) of the outstanding capital stock (common and preferred) of PLDT. The Amended Articles of Incorporation will be filed with the Philippine SEC in due time.

Upon the approval of the Amendments by the Philippine SEC, the Board of Directors, pursuant to the authority granted to it in the Seventh Article of PLDT’s Articles of Incorporation, may determine the specific terms, features and limitations of the Voting Preferred Stock and, as it deems necessary to protect the interest of PLDT

and its stakeholders, authorize the issuance of shares of Voting Preferred Stock to Qualified Owners. It is contemplated that the shares of Voting Preferred Stock will have the following other features: (a) entitled to dividends at such rate to be determined by the Board of Directors, payable before any dividends are paid to the holders of Common Stock; (b) not convertible to Common Stock or to any shares of stock of PLDT of any class; (c) redeemable at the option of PLDT; (d) holders will have no pre-emptive right to subscribe or purchase any shares of stock of any class, or convertible debt, securities or warrants issued, sold or disposed by PLDT; and (e) in the event of dissolution or liquidation or winding up of PLDT, holders will be entitled to be paid in full, or pro-rata insofar as the assets of PLDT will permit, the par value of such shares of Voting Preferred Stock and any accrued or unpaid dividends thereon before any distribution shall be made to holders of shares of Common Stock.

All preferred stocks limit the ability of PLDT to pay cash dividends unless all dividends on such preferred stock for all past dividend payment periods have been paid and or declared and set apart and provision has been made for the currently payable dividends.

On September 23, 2011, the Board of Directors approved the redemption, or the Redemption, of all outstanding shares of PLDT’s 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock Series A to FF, which were issued pursuant to the PLDT SIP Preferred Shares, and all such shares were redeemed and retired effective on January 19, 2012.

The record date for the determination of the holders of outstanding SIP Preferred Shares subject to Redemption, or Holders of SIP Preferred Shares, was fixed on October 10, 2011, or the record date. In accordance with the terms and conditions of the SIP Preferred Shares, PLDT, on the redemption date, paid each of the holders of SIP Preferred Shares as of the Record Date, an amount equal to the par value of such shares, plus accrued and unpaid dividends thereon up to the Redemption Date, or the Redemption Price.

PLDT has set aside Php5.8 billion, the amount required to fund the redemption price for the SIP Preferred Shares in a trust account in the name of RCBC, as trustee. Pursuant to the terms of the trust account, the Trustee will continue to hold in trust, for the benefit of those Holders of SIP Preferred Shares who have failed to claim their redemption price for a period of ten years from the Redemption Date, or until January 19, 2022. After the said date, any and all remaining balance in the Trust Account shall be returned to PLDT and revert to its general funds. Any interests on such redemption trust fund shall accrue for the benefit of, and be paid from time to time, to PLDT.

As at January 19, 2012, notwithstanding that any stock certificate representing the SIP Preferred Shares has not been surrendered for cancellation, the SIP Preferred Shares shall no longer be deemed outstanding and the right of the holders of such shares to receive dividends thereon shall cease to accrue and all rights with respect to such SIP Preferred Shares shall forthwith cease and terminate, except only the right to receive the Redemption Price for such SIP Preferred Shares, but without interest thereon.

All SIP Preferred Shares of PLDT’s Series A to FF 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock had been redeemed and retired effective January 19, 2012. A total amount of Php125 million was withdrawn from the Trust Account, representing total payments in redemption as at March 22, 2012.

PLDT expects to similarly redeem outstanding shares of 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock Series GG to II as and when they become eligible for redemption.

Common Stock

The Board of Directors approved a share buyback program of up to five million shares of PLDT’s common stock, representing approximately 3% of PLDT’s total outstanding shares of common stock in 2008. The share buyback program reflects PLDT’s commitment to capital management as an important element in enhancing shareholders value. This also reinforces initiatives that PLDT has already undertaken, such as the declaration of special dividends on common stock in addition to the regular dividend payout equivalent to 70% of our core earnings per share, after having determined that PLDT has the capacity to pay additional returns to shareholders. Under the share buyback program, PLDT reacquired shares on an opportunistic basis, directly from the open market through the trading facilities of the PSE and NYSE.

We had acquired a total of approximately 2.72 million shares of PLDT’s common stock at a weighted average price of Php2,388 per share for a total consideration of Php6,505 million in accordance with the share buyback program as at December 31, 2011 and 2010. See Note 8 – Earnings Per Common Share and Note 27 – Financial Assets and Liabilities.

On November 9, 2011, the PSE approved the listing of the additional 27.7 million common shares of PLDT, which were issued on October 26, 2011 at the issue price of Php2,500 per share, as consideration for the acquisition by PLDT of the Enterprise Assets of Digitel. See Note 13 – Business Combinations – PLDT’s Acquisition of Digitel.

On January 27, 2012, a total of 1.61 million PLDT common shares were issued for settlement of the purchase price of 2,518 million common shares of Digitel tendered by the noncontrolling Digitel stockholders under the mandatory tender offer conducted by PLDT, and which opted to receive payment of the purchase price in the form of PLDT common shares.

Debt Covenants

Our debt instruments contain restrictive covenants, including covenants that require us to comply with specified financial ratios and other financial tests, calculated in conformity with PFRS at relevant measurement dates, principally at the end of each quarterly period. We have complied with all of our maintenance financial ratios as required under our loan covenants and other debt instruments.

The principal factors that can negatively affect our ability to comply with these financial ratios and other financial tests are depreciation of the Philippine peso relative to the U.S. dollar, poor operating performance of PLDT and its consolidated subsidiaries, impairment or similar charges in respect of investments or other long-lived assets that may be recognized by PLDT and its consolidated subsidiaries, and increases in our interest expense. Interest expense may increase as a result of various factors including issuance of new debt, the refinancing of lower cost indebtedness by higher cost indebtedness, depreciation of the Philippine peso, the lowering of PLDT’s credit ratings or the credit ratings of the Philippines, increase in reference interest rates, and general market conditions. Since approximately 47% and 43% of PLDT’s total consolidated debts as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, were denominated in foreign currencies, principally in U.S. dollars, many of these financial ratios and other tests are negatively affected by any weakening of the Philippine peso.

PLDT’s debt instruments contain a number of other negative covenants that, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications, restrict PLDT’s ability to take certain actions without lenders’ approval, including: (a) incurring additional indebtedness; (b) disposing of all or substantially all of its assets or of assets in excess of specified thresholds of its tangible net worth; (c) creating any lien or security interest; (d) permitting set-off against amounts owed to PLDT; (e) merging or consolidating with any other company; (f) entering into transactions with stockholders and affiliates; and (g) entering into sale and leaseback transactions.

Furthermore, certain of PLDT’s debt instruments contain provisions wherein PLDT may be required to repurchase or prepay certain indebtedness in case of a change in control of PLDT, while certain of DMPI’s debt instruments contain provisions wherein DMPI may be declared in default in case of a change in control in DMPI.

277

##### Table of Contents

PLDT’s debt instruments and guarantees for DMPI loans also contain customary and other default provisions that permit the lender to accelerate amounts due or terminate their commitments to extend additional funds under the debt instruments. These default provisions include: (a) cross-defaults that will be triggered only if the principal amount of the defaulted indebtedness exceeds a threshold amount specified in these debt instruments; (b) failure by PLDT to meet certain financial ratio covenants referred to above; (c) the occurrence of any material adverse change in circumstances that a lender reasonably believes materially impairs PLDT’s ability to perform its obligations under its debt instrument with the lender; (d) the revocation, termination or amendment of any of the permits or franchises of PLDT in any manner unacceptable to the lender; (e) the nationalization or sustained discontinuance of all or a substantial portion of PLDT’s business; and (f) other typical events of default, including the commencement of bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or winding up proceedings by PLDT.

Smart’s debt instruments contain certain restrictive covenants that require Smart to comply with specified financial ratios and other financial tests at semi-annual measurement dates. Smart’s loan agreements include compliance with financial tests such as consolidated debt to consolidated equity, consolidated debt to consolidated EBITDA and debt service coverage ratios. The agreements also contain customary and other default provisions that permit the lender to accelerate amounts due under the loans or terminate their commitments to extend additional funds under the loans. These default provisions include: (a) cross-defaults and cross-accelerations that permit a lender to declare a default if Smart is in default under another loan agreement. These cross-default provisions are triggered upon a payment or other default permitting the acceleration of Smart debt, whether or not the defaulted debt is accelerated; (b) failure by Smart to comply with certain financial ratio covenants; and (c) the occurrence of any material adverse change in circumstances that the lender reasonably believes materially impairs Smart’s ability to perform its obligations or impair guarantors’ ability to perform their obligations under its loan agreements.

DMPI’s debt instruments contain customary and other default provisions that permit the lender to accelerate amounts due under the loans, including: (a) cross-defaults and cross-accelerations that permit a lender to declare a default if DMPI or PLDT, as guarantor, is in default under another loan agreement; (b) failure by PLDT to comply with certain financial ratio covenants; (c) occurrence of any material adverse change in circumstances that the lender reasonably believes materially impairs DMPI’s and PLDT’s ability to perform its obligations under its loan agreements; (d) change of control; and (e) other typical events of default including the commencement of bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, or winding up proceedings by DMPI.

Defined Contribution Plan

Smart and certain of its subsidiaries contributions to the plan are made based on the employee’s years of tenure and range from 5% to 10% of the employee’s monthly salary. Additionally, an employee has an option to make a personal contribution to the fund, at an amount not exceeding 10% of his monthly salary. The employer then provides an additional contribution to the fund ranging from 10% to 50% of the employee’s contribution based on the employee’s years of tenure. Although the plan has a defined contribution format, Smart and certain of its subsidiaries regularly monitor compliance with R.A. 7641, otherwise known as “The Retirement Pay Law.” As at December 31, 2011 and 2010, Smart and certain of its subsidiaries were in compliance with the requirements of R.A. 7641.

The plan’s investment portfolio seeks to achieve regular income and long-term capital growth and consistent performance over its own portfolio benchmark. In order to attain this objective, the trustee’s mandate is to invest in a diversified portfolio of bonds and equities, both domestic and international. The portfolio mix is kept at 60% to 90% for debt and fixed income securities while 10% to 40% is allotted to equity securities.

The allocation of the fair value of the beneficial trust fund’s assets for Smart and certain of its subsidiaries pension plan as at December 31, 2011 and 2010 is as follows:

The new LTIP, or 2010 to 2012 LTIP, has been presented to and approved by the ECC and the Board of Directors, and is based on profit targets for the covered Performance Cycle. The cost of 2010 to 2012 LTIP is determined using the projected unit credit method based on assumed discount rates and profit targets. LTIP costs recognized for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 amounted to Php1,392 million and Php1,833 million, respectively, while the total outstanding liability and fair value of 2010 to 2012 LTIP cost amounted to Php1,392 million as at December 31, 2010.

See Note 3 – Management’s Use of Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions and Note 5 – Income and Expenses.

Since 1994, following the rejection of PLDT’s formal protest against the assessments by the NTC of SRF, PLDT and the NTC have been involved in legal proceedings before the Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court. The principal issue in these proceedings was the basis for the computation of the SRF. PLDT’s opinion, which was upheld by the Court of Appeals, but, as set forth below, rejected by the Supreme Court, was that the SRF should be computed based only on the par value of the subscribed or paid up capital of PLDT, excluding stock dividends, premium or capital in excess of par. The Supreme Court, in its decision dated July 28, 1999, ordered the NTC to make a recomputation of the SRF based on PLDT’s capital stock subscribed and paid. Subsequently, in February 2000, the NTC issued an assessment letter for the balance of the SRF, but in calculating said fees, the NTC used as a basis not only capital stock subscribed or paid but also the stock dividends. PLDT questioned the inclusion of the stock dividends in the calculation of the SRF and sought to restrain the NTC from enforcing/implementing its assessment until the resolution of the said issue. Prior to the resolution of the issue mentioned above, PLDT paid the SRF due in 2000 together with the balance due from the recalculation of the SRF and had been paying the SRF due in September of each year thereafter, excluding the portion that was based on stock dividends.

The Supreme Court, in a resolution promulgated on December 4, 2007, held that the computation of the SRF should be based on the outstanding capital stock of PLDT, including stock dividends. In a letter to PLDT on February 29, 2008, the NTC assessed PLDT the total amount of Php2,870 million as SRF, which included penalties and interest. On April 3, 2008, PLDT paid NTC the outstanding principal amount relating to SRF on stock dividends in the amount of Php455 million, but did not pay the penalties and interest assessed by the NTC. PLDT, through counsel, believes that it is not liable for penalties and interest, and therefore protested and disputed NTC’s assessments of the same. In letters dated April 14, 2008 and June 18, 2008, the NTC demanded payment of the balance of its assessment. On July 9, 2008, PLDT filed a Petition for Certiorari and Prohibition with the Court of Appeals, or the Petition, praying that the NTC be restrained from enforcing or implementing its assessment letter of February 29, 2008, and demand letters dated April 14, 2008 and June 18, 2008, all demanding payment of SRF including penalties and interests. The Petition further prayed that after notice and hearing, the NTC be ordered to forever cease and desist from implementing and/or enforcing, and annulling and reversing and setting aside, the said assessment letter and demand letters. The Court of Appeals, in its Decision dated May 25, 2010, granted PLDT’s Petition and set aside/annulled the NTC’s letters-assessments dated February 29, 2008, April 14, 2008 and June 18, 2008. The NTC did not file a Motion for Reconsideration of the decision of the Court of Appeals. Instead, the NTC, through the Solicitor General, filed a petition for review directly with the Supreme Court. PLDT received a copy of the petition on July 29, 2010, and after receiving the order of the Supreme Court to file its comment, filed its Comment on the petition on December 7, 2010. The NTC filed a Reply dated August 26, 2011, which was received by PLDT on September 6, 2011. PLDT filed a Rejoinder on October 12, 2011. This case is still pending with the Supreme Court.

PLDT’s Local Business and Franchise Tax Assessments

The Local Government Code of 1991, or Republic Act (R.A.) 7160, which took effect on January 1, 1992, extended to local government units, or LGUs, the power to tax businesses within their territorial jurisdiction granted under Batas Pambansa 337, and withdrew tax exemptions previously granted to franchise grantees under Section 12 of R.A. 7082.

PLDT believes that the Public Telecommunications Policy Act, or R.A. 7925, which took effect on March 16, 1995, and the grant of local franchise and business taxes exemption privileges to other franchise holders subsequent to the effectivity of R.A. 7160, implicitly restored its local franchise and business taxes exemption privilege under Section 12 of R.A. 7082, or the PLDT Franchise pursuant to Section 23 thereof or the equality of treatment clause. To confirm this position, PLDT sought and obtained on June 2, 1998 a ruling from the Bureau of Local Government Finance, or BLGF, of the Philippine Department of Finance, which ruled that PLDT is exempt from the payment of local franchise and business taxes imposable by LGUs under R.A. 7160. However, on March 25, 2003, in a ruling relating to a tax assessment by the City of Davao, the Supreme Court decided that PLDT was not exempt from the local franchise tax.

Although PLDT believes that it is not liable to pay local franchise and business taxes, PLDT has entered into compromise settlements with several LGUs, including the City of Makati, in order to maintain and preserve its good standing and relationship with these LGUs. Under these compromise settlements, which have mostly been approved by the relevant courts, PLDT has paid a total amount of Php1,016 million as at December 31, 2011 for local franchise tax covering prior periods up to December 31, 2011.

As at December 31, 2011, PLDT has no contested LGU assessments for franchise taxes based on gross receipts received or collected for services within their respective territorial jurisdiction.

However, PLDT contested the imposition of local business taxes in addition to local franchise tax by the City of Tuguegarao in the amount of Php1.9 million for the years 1998 to 2003. The Regional Trial Court, or RTC, rendered a decision stating that the City of Tuguegarao cannot impose local business tax on PLDT, there being no ordinance enacted for that purpose. The City of Tuguegarao has filed a Motion for Reconsideration which was denied by the court in its Order dated March 2, 2009. The City of Tuguegarao has filed a Notice of Appeal before the Court of Appeals. PLDT filed a motion to dismiss the said appeal on the ground of lack of jurisdiction as the appeal should have been filed before the Court of Tax Appeals, or CTA. In a resolution dated February 9, 2012, the Court of Appeals dismissed the case for failure of the City of Tuguegarao and its Treasurer to file their Appellants’ Brief. PLDT also contested the imposition of local business tax in addition to local franchise tax also by the City of Tuguegarao in the amount of Php2.3 million for the years 2006 to 2011. PLDT filed a

Petition with the RTC of the City of Makati on July 8, 2011. The City of Tuguegarao filed its Answer with Motion to Dismiss claiming the RTC of Makati City does not have jurisdiction over the case. Both parties have filed their respective Memorandum on the issue of Jurisdiction raised by the City of Tuguegarao and a judicial dispute resolution conference is set on April 3, 2012 after the parties failed to settle the case in the mediation proceedings.

Moreover, PLDT also contested the imposition of franchise tax by the Province of Cagayan based on gross receipts derived from outside its territorial jurisdiction specifically that of the City of Tuguegarao, in the amount of Php3 million for the years 1999 to 2006. The RTC in its decision dated February 25, 2009, ruled in favor of PLDT, stating that the Province of Cagayan can no longer tax PLDT for transactions taking place in the City of Tuguegarao. The Province of Cagayan filed a Motion for Reconsideration which was denied by the RTC in its Order dated October 7, 2009. The Province of Cagayan filed a Petition for Review before the CTA. After filing its Comment and the submission of the respective memoranda of both parties, PLDT received the Decision of the CTA on September 20, 2010 which affirmed with modifications the Decision of the RTC. Though said Decision affirmed that the Province of Cagayan cannot impose franchise tax on gross receipts realized in the City of Tuguegarao, the CTA ruled that PLDT is subject to surcharge and interest for the years 1999 to 2004 thereby reducing the amount refundable to PLDT from Php2.8 million to Php1 million. Both parties filed a partial motion for reconsideration of the said decision as well as comment on the other party’s motion. In a resolution dated January 27, 2011, the CTA partially granted the motion for reconsideration of PLDT by modifying its decision stating that the Province of Cagayan’s right to assess surcharge and interest for local franchise tax for the period of 1998 was already prescribed thereby increasing the amount refundable to PLDT by Php0.059 million. The motion for the Issuance of Writ of Execution filed by PLDT before the RTC of Makati is set for hearing on May 9, 2012.

Smart’s Local Business and Franchise Tax Assessments

In Smart Communications, Inc. vs. City of Makati (Civil Cases No. 02-249 and 02-725, August 3, 2004), the deficiency local franchise tax assessment issued against Smart by the City of Makati covering the years 1995 and 1998 to 2001 had been ordered cancelled by the RTC of City of Makati. This was upheld by the Court of Appeals in its Resolution dated June 9, 2005 (CA G.R. SP No. 88681, June 9, 2005). The Court’s Decision declaring Smart as exempt from paying local franchise tax had become final and executory.

In 2008 and 2009, the City of Makati sent letters to Smart for alleged franchise tax liability. Smart replied and refuted the alleged franchise tax liability based on the Smart vs. City of Makati case and its BOI registration dated May 3, 2001.

In August 2009, the City of Makati issued a Letter of Authority for the examination of Smart’s local tax liabilities covering the years 2006, 2007 and 2008. The City of Makati issued a Notice of Assessment dated October 23, 2009, which Smart protested. On February 8, 2010, Smart received a Revised Notice of Assessment. Smart contested the revised deficiency local tax assessment on February 15, 2010. There were several letters and meetings between the City of Makati and Smart on the matter.

On August 3, 2010, however, while the parties were still engaged in discussions over the assessment, Smart received the City of Makati’s Notice of Distraint and Levy dated July 23, 2010. Smart sent a letter to the City of Makati on August 10, 2010 inquiring on the status of Smart’s request for reinvestigation and requested for a meeting. On August 19, 2010, Smart’s representatives met with the City of Makati officials and were informed that its decision on the matter is final.

On September 1, 2010, Smart filed an Appeal with application for the issuance of a Temporary Restraining Order and Writ of Preliminary Injunction before the RTC of the City of Makati (Branch 133) docketed as SCA No. 10-852. On September 6, 2010, the RTC of the City of Makati (Branch 133) promulgated an Order granting the issuance of a temporary restraining order for 20 days directing the City of Makati and the City Treasurer to maintain the status quo until a hearing can be had to determine the propriety of injunctive relief conditioned upon posting a bond by Smart. In an Order dated September 23, 2010, the RTC of the City of Makati (Branch 133) issued a Writ of Preliminary Injunction conditioned upon posting a bond by Smart. Smart submitted the bond with the RTC of the City of Makati (Branch 133) on October 4, 2010. The City of Makati filed a Motion for Reconsideration of the Order dated September 23, 2010, which was denied.

Meanwhile, the City of Makati filed a Motion to Dismiss dated September 15, 2010 and a Motion to Inhibit dated September 21, 2010, which were both denied as well as the Motions for Reconsideration from the Orders denying the said motions.

Thus, the City of Makati filed with the Court of Appeals a Petition for Certiorari [With Urgent Application for the Issuance of a Temporary Restraining Order and/or Writ of Preliminary Injunction] dated December 16, 2010, seeking to annul the orders of the RTC of the City of Makati.

In a decision promulgated on July 26, 2011, the Court of Appeals dismissed the Petition of Makati City, et al. for lack of jurisdiction. The City of Makati moved for reconsideration but, the motion was denied in a resolution dated December 6, 2011. On December 22, 2011, the City of Makati filed a Petition for Review on Certiorari with the Supreme Court, challenging the findings of the Court of Appeals.

In the RTC case, Smart and the City of Makati filed a Joint Motion for the Court to render judgment based on compromise agreement. On January 20, 2012, the RTC of the City of Makati issued its Judgment finding the compromise agreement meritorious and ordered both parties to comply with the terms and conditions of the agreement. With the compliance to the terms and conditions, the audit of Smart’s local tax liabilities by the City of Makati was terminated.

Meanwhile, Smart also received similar local franchise tax assessments issued by the City of Iloilo. The RTC of Iloilo likewise ruled in favor of Smart in its Decision dated January 19, 2005 (Civil Case No. 02-27144) declaring Smart as exempt from payment of local franchise tax. The City of Iloilo appealed the Decision and the Supreme Court, on February 27, 2009, (G.R. No. 167260) ruled that Smart is liable to pay the local franchise tax to the City of Iloilo. On April 2, 2009, Smart filed its Motion for Reconsideration. On July 1, 2009, the Supreme Court’s Special Second Division issued a Resolution denying Smart’s Motion for Reconsideration. In accordance with this Decision, Smart paid the City of Iloilo.

In 2002, Smart filed a special civil action for declaratory relief for the ascertainment of its rights and obligations under the Tax Code of the City of Davao. The relevant section of Smart’s franchise provided that the grantee shall pay a franchise tax equivalent to 3% of all gross receipts of the business transacted under the franchise by the grantee and the said percentage shall be in lieu of all taxes on the franchise or earnings thereof. On September 16, 2008, the Supreme Court’s Third Division ruled that Smart is liable for local franchise tax since the phrase “in lieu of all taxes” merely covers national taxes and was rendered inoperative when the VAT law took effect. On October 21, 2008, Smart filed its Motion for Reconsideration. Smart argued that the operative word in the “in lieu of all taxes” clause in Smart’s franchise is the word “all”. The word “all” before “taxes” in the clause “in lieu of all taxes” covers all kinds of taxes, national and local, except only those mentioned in the franchise. Smart also argued that the BIR already clarified in its Revenue Memorandum Circular No. 5-96 dated March 31, 1997 that the VAT merely replaced the franchise tax. On July 21, 2009, the Supreme Court’s Third Division promulgated its Resolution denying Smart’s Motion for Reconsideration and affirming that Smart is liable to pay local franchise tax to the City of Davao. On June 3, 2010, Smart received an initial local franchise tax assessment from the City of Davao covering the years from 1997 to 2010. Smart filed on June 21, 2010 its letter of protest against the local franchise tax assessment citing its local tax exemption by virtue of its BOI registration. On July 6, 2010, Smart received a letter from the City of Davao requesting for the submission of additional documents. Smart submitted several documents on August 3, 2010. In reply to Smart’s protest, the City of Davao answered several issues, made an assessment and demanded for the settlement of the local franchise tax. Smart received the reply on October 26, 2010. On November 11, 2010, Smart protested the assessment. In an unsigned letter received by Smart on December 17, 2010, the City of Davao maintained that Smart is obligated to pay the local franchise tax assessed.

In an Indorsement dated February 10, 2011, the City of Davao Legal Office issued an Opinion recognizing that Smart’s Tax exemption, being a BOI registered enterprise, shall commence from the date of registration with the Board (six years for pioneer business enterprise), pursuant to the provisions of Section 133(g) of the Local Government Code in relation to Article 11 of the Omnibus Investment Code of 1987. On March 15, 2011, the City of Davao issued its revised local franchise tax assessment which Smart paid on March 29, 2011.

With the finality of the Cities of Iloilo and Davao cases, several cities and provinces have began discussions with Smart on the settlement of alleged local franchise tax within their respective jurisdictions. To limit the years covered by Smart’s tax liability, Smart is invoking the prospective application of the decisions on the Cities of Iloilo and Davao and the recognition of its local tax exemption by virtue of its BOI registration issued on May 3, 2001.

Meanwhile, the Province of Cagayan also issued tax assessment for alleged local franchise tax. On January 24, 2011, Smart filed a Petition before the RTC of the City of Makati, appealing the assessment on the ground that Smart cannot be held liable for local franchise tax mainly because it has no sales office within the Province of Cagayan pursuant to Section 137 of the Local Government Code (R.A. No. 7160). The RTC of the City of Makati issued a temporary restraining order on October 21, 2011, and the writ of preliminary injunction on November 14, 2011. The case is now submitted for decision.

Smart’s Real Property Tax Assessment

In Smart Communications, Inc. vs. Central Board of Assessment Appeals, or CBAA, Local Board of Assessment Appeals of Surigao City, and City Assessor of Surigao City, Smart filed a Petition for Review with the Court of Appeals assailing the prior decision of the CBAA which declared Smart as being liable to pay real property taxes to the City of Surigao. The Court of Appeals on November 26, 2008 decided that Smart is exempt from the payment of real property taxes for its properties which are actually, directly and exclusively used in the operation of its franchise.

On August 16, 2010, the Court of Appeals issued an Entry of Judgment confirming that the November 26, 2008 Resolution had become final and executory on December 22, 2008, and it was recorded in the book of Entries of Judgments.

PCEV’s Local Franchise Tax Assessment

In 2004, PCEV secured a favorable decision from a Trial Court involving the local franchise tax in the City of Makati. In the case entitled “Pilipino Telephone Corporation vs. City of Makati and Andrea Pacita S. Guinto” (PCEV vs. City of Makati) (Civil Case No. 01-1760), the RTC of the City of Makati rendered its Decision dated December 10, 2002 declaring PCEV exempt from the payment of local franchise and business taxes. The Trial Court ruled that the legislative franchise of PCEV, R.A. 7293, granting the corporation exemption from local franchise and business taxes took effect after R.A. 7160 or the local government code which removed all prior tax exemptions granted by law or other special law. The Trial Court’s decision was affirmed by the Court of Appeals in its Decision dated July 12, 2004 and then subsequently, the Supreme Court denied the appeal of the City of Makati in its Entry of Judgment dated October 13, 2004. The Supreme Court ruled that the City of Makati, failed to sufficiently show that the Court of Appeals committed any reversible error in the questioned judgment to warrant the exercise of the Supreme Court’s discretionary appellate jurisdiction.

On March 9, 2009, PCEV received a letter from the City of Makati on alleged outstanding franchise tax obligations covering the period from 1995 to 2009. In November 2009, PCEV received a Billing Statement from the City of Makati for alleged franchise tax liability covering the period from 1999 to 2003. On December 16, 2009, PCEV filed its reply and refuted the alleged franchise tax liability based on the PCEV vs. City of Makati case.

Digitel’s Franchise Tax Assessment and Real Property Tax Assessment

In the case of Digitel vs. Province of Pangasinan (G.R. No. 152534, February 23, 2007), the Supreme Court held that Digitel is liable to the Province of Pangasinan for franchise tax from November 13, 1992 and real property tax only on real properties not actually, directly and exclusively used in the franchise operations from February 17, 1994. However, in the case of Digitel vs. City Government of Batangas (G.R. No. 156040, December 11, 2008), the Supreme Court ruled that Digitel’s real properties used in its telecommunications business are subject to the real property tax. On June 16, 2009, the Supreme Court denied Digitel’s Motion for Reconsideration.

With the Digitel vs. City Government of Batangas case, several cities and provinces have began discussions with Digitel on the settlement of real property tax within their respective jurisdiction.

Arbitration with Eastern Telecommunications Philippines, Inc., or ETPI

Since 1990 (up to present), PLDT and ETPI have been engaged in legal proceedings involving a number of issues in connection with their business relationship. While they have entered into Compromise Agreements in the past (one in February 1990, and another one in March 1999), these agreements have not put to rest their issues against each other. Accordingly, to avoid further protracted litigation and improve their business relationship, both PLDT and ETPI have agreed in April 2008 to submit their differences and issues to voluntary arbitration. For this arbitration (after collating various claims of one party against the other) ETPI, on one hand, initially submitted its claims of about Php2.9 billion against PLDT; while PLDT, on the other hand, submitted its claims of about Php2.8 billion against ETPI. Currently, PLDT and ETPI have agreed to suspend the arbitration proceedings between them.

Matters Relating to a Third Party Aggregator

In late 2009, PLDT informally received a communication which provided a complaint, or the Draft, setting forth a securities class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against PLDT and certain PLDT officers and indicated that such Draft may be filed against PLDT. The Draft alleges that some PLDT officers and employees caused PLDT’s subsidiary, Smart to enter into contracts with a third-party entity in order to divert long distance telephone traffic and profits to such third-party entity. The Draft further alleges that these officers and employees personally created and controlled the third-party entity and were personally enriched as a result. The Draft alleges that this alleged scheme was accomplished by causing Smart to offer a lower rate for long distance telephone traffic to that third-party entity so that long distance traffic which otherwise would have been handled by PLDT at a higher rate was redirected to equipment owned by the third-party entity. The Draft alleges that PLDT failed to disclose material facts regarding the alleged scheme and that, as a result, PLDT misstated its true financial condition in its annual reports from 2002 through 2008.

In light of the nature of the allegations and out of an abundance of caution, PLDT’s Board of Directors referred the Draft for review by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee appointed an independent Investigation Committee to oversee an investigation into the allegations contained in the Draft. The Audit Committee retained independent counsel to lead in the investigation. To preserve the confidential nature of the inquiry, the investigation was limited to internal sources at PLDT, including current PLDT and Smart employees, internal records and discrete inquiries and public records searches.

The independent counsel, under the oversight of the Investigation Committee, has concluded on the basis of the evidence within the control of PLDT or otherwise reasonably available, that: (i) while the investigation cannot definitively exclude the possibility, the investigation has found no evidence to establish that PLDT’s officers and employees were personally involved in the creation of the third-party entity referred to in the Draft and has found no evidence of any improper personal financial benefit or gain by these officers and employees, directly or indirectly from such third party entity; and (ii) while Smart had substantial business relationships with various third-party aggregators of long-distance telephone traffic during the relevant period, including the third-party entity referred to in the Draft (with which Smart ceased doing business in 2008), there is no evidence that the relationship with such third-party entity in fact resulted in a material adverse impact on PLDT’s revenues during the relevant period and may have in fact benefited PLDT overall through an increase in overall call volume.

On May 7, 2010, the Audit Committee of PLDT approved the recommendation and conclusion of the independent counsel, as endorsed by the Investigation Committee.

Matters Relating to Gamboa Case

On June 29, 2011, the Supreme Court of the Philippines promulgated a Decision in the case of Wilson P. Gamboa vs. Finance Secretary Margarito B. Teves, et. al. (G.R. No. 176579) (the “Gamboa Case”), where the Court held that “the term ‘capital’ in Section 11, Article XII of the 1987 Constitution refers only to shares of stock entitled to vote in the election of directors and thus only to voting common shares, and not to the total outstanding capital stock (common and non-voting preferred shares)”. The Decision of the Supreme Court reversed earlier opinions issued by the Philippine SEC that non-voting preferred shares are included in the computation of the 60% to 40% Filipino-alien equity requirement of certain economic activities, such as telecommunications which is a public utility under Section 11, Article XII of the 1987 Constitution.

While PLDT is not a party to the Gamboa Case, the Supreme Court directed the Philippine SEC in the Gamboa Case “to apply this definition of the term ‘capital’ in determining the extent of allowable foreign ownership in Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company, and if there is a violation of Section 11, Article XII of the Constitution, to impose the appropriate sanctions under the law.”

As at March 22, 2012, the case is set for oral arguments on April 17, 2012. To the best of PLDT’s knowledge, the Philippine SEC has not commenced any proceeding to determine if PLDT is in violation of Section 11, Article XII of the 1987 Constitution. A finding by the Philippine SEC that there is a violation of Section 11, Article XII of the 1987 Constitution by PLDT may subject the latter to sanctions under Philippine law, including possible revocation of its franchise.

Nonetheless, on July 5, 2011, the Board of Directors of PLDT approved the amendments to the Seventh Article of PLDT’s Articles of Incorporation consisting of the sub-classification of its authorized preferred capital into preferred shares with full voting rights, or Voting Preferred Shares, and serial preferred shares without voting rights, and other conforming amendments, or Amendments to the Articles. The Amendments to the Articles will require the approval by the stockholders of PLDT and the approval of the Philippine SEC. Upon approval of the Amendments to the Articles by the Philippine SEC, up to 150,000,000 Voting Preferred Shares could be initially issued by the Board to, among others, Philippine citizens and Philippine corporations at least 60% of the capital stock entitled to vote is owned or held by such citizens, as and when the Board determines such issuance to be necessary to avoid any disruptions on PLDT’s operations and transactions and to protect the interests of PLDT and its stakeholders. Upon issuance of such Voting Preferred Shares to Filipinos and Filipino-owned entities, the total foreign equity in the total resulting voting shares of PLDT will be reduced from the current 59% to about 35%. A Special Meeting of Stockholders of PLDT was scheduled on September 20, 2011, at which meeting the Amendments to the Articles were supposed to be submitted to PLDT’s stockholders for approval. However, the Special Meeting was cancelled due to an anticipated lack of quorum. In the Special Meeting of Stockholders held on March 22, 2012, the Amendments to the Articles were approved by the holders of more than two thirds (2/3) of the outstanding capital stock (common and preferred) of PLDT. The Amended Articles of Incorporation will be filed with the Philippine SEC in due time.

Other disclosures required by IAS 37, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, were not provided as it may prejudice our position in on-going claims, litigations and assessments.

(1) | Fair values determined using observable market inputs that reflect quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

(2) | Fair values determined using inputs other than quoted market prices that are either directly or indirectly observable for the assets or liabilities.

As at December 31, 2011 and 2010, we have no financial instruments whose fair values are determined using inputs that are not based on observable market data (Level 3).

As at December 31, 2011 and 2010, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate such value:

Long-term financial assets and liabilities:

Fair value is based on the following:

Type |  | Fair Value Assumptions
Noncurrent portion of advances and other noncurrent assets |  | Estimated fair value is based on the discounted values of future cash flows using the applicable zero coupon rates plus credit spread.
Fixed Rate Loans: U.S. dollar notes Other loans in all other currencies |  | Quoted market price. Estimated fair value is based on the discounted value of future cash flows using the applicable Commercial Interest Reference Rate and Philippine Dealing System Treasury Fixing rates for similar types of loans.
Variable Rate Loans |  | The carrying value approximates fair value because of recent and regular repricing based on market conditions.
Customers’ deposits and deferred credits and other noncurrent liabilities |  | Estimated fair value is based on the discounted values of future cash flows using the applicable zero coupon rates plus credit spread.

##### Table of Contents

Derivative Financial Instruments:

Foreign currency options: The fair values were computed using an option pricing model using market volatility rates of the U.S. dollar and Philippine peso exchange rate as at valuation date.

Forward foreign exchange contracts, bifurcated foreign currency forwards and foreign currency swaps: The fair values were computed as the present value of estimated future cash flows using market U.S. dollar and Philippine peso interest rates as at valuation date.

Available-for-sale financial assets: Fair values of available-for-sale financial assets, which consist of proprietary listed shares, were determined using quoted prices. Investments in unlisted securities are carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

Investment in debt securities: Fair values were determined using quoted prices. For non-quoted securities, fair values were determined using discounted cash flow based on market observable rates.

Due to the short-term nature of the transactions, the fair value of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, current investment in debt securities, trade and other receivables, current portion of advances and other noncurrent assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, current portion of interest-bearing financial liabilities, and dividends payable approximate their carrying values as at the end of the reporting period.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Our derivative financial instruments are accounted for as either cash flow hedges or transactions not designated as hedges. Cash flow hedges refer to those transactions that hedge our exposure to variability in cash flows attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognized financial asset or liability and exposures arising from forecast transactions. Changes in the fair value of these instruments representing effective hedges are recognized directly in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in our consolidated income statement. For transactions that are not designated as hedges, any gains or losses arising from the changes in fair value are recognized directly to income for the period. As at December 31, 2011, SPi and SPi CRM designated forward foreign exchange contracts as cash flow hedges, while as at December 31, 2010, we have no outstanding financial instruments designated as hedges.

PLDT

Due to the amounts of PLDT’s foreign currency hedging requirements and the large interest differential between the Philippine peso and the U.S. dollar, the costs to book long-term hedges can be significant. In order to manage such hedging costs, PLDT utilizes structures that include currency option contracts, and fixed-to-floating coupon-only swaps that may not qualify for hedge accounting.

Currency Swaps

PLDT has entered into long-term principal only-currency swap agreements with various foreign counterparties to hedge the currency risk on its fixed rate notes maturing in 2012 and 2017. These long-term currency swaps have an aggregate notional amount of US$322 million with total mark-to-market losses of Php2,924 million and Php3,604 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Under the swaps, PLDT effectively exchanges the principal of its U.S. dollar-denominated fixed rate notes into Philippine peso-denominated loan exposures at agreed swap exchange rates. The agreed swap exchange rates are reset to the lowest U.S. dollar/Philippine peso spot exchange rate during the term of the swaps, subject to a minimum exchange rate. The outstanding swap contracts have an agreed average swap exchange rates of Php50.45 as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The semi-annual fixed or floating swap cost payments that PLDT is required to make to its counterparties averaged about 3.04% and 2.93% per annum as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The mark-to-market losses of the 2012 and 2017 swaps amounted to Php834 million and Php2,090 million as at December 31, 2011, respectively.

On various dates in 2009, the long-term principal only currency swap agreements maturing in 2012 and 2017 were partially terminated, with a total aggregate settlement amount of Php112 million and Php485 million, respectively. As a result of these unwinding transactions, the outstanding notional amount was reduced to US$146 million and US$245 million for the swaps maturing in 2012 and 2017, respectively, with mark-to-market losses of Php948 million and Php1,803, respectively, as at December 31, 2009.

On various dates in 2010, the long-term principal only-currency swap agreements maturing in 2012 and 2017 were partially terminated, with a total aggregate settlement amount of Php372 million and Php168 million, respectively. As a result of these unwinding transactions, the outstanding notional amount was reduced to US$100 million and US$222 million for the swaps maturing in 2012 and 2017, respectively, with mark-to-market losses of Php953 million and Php2,651 million, respectively, as at December 31, 2010.

##### Table of Contents

On various dates from October to November 2010, PLDT entered into several overlay principal only swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of US$60 million to effectively unwind a portion of the outstanding long-term principal only-currency swap agreement maturing in 2012. The overlay swaps are offsetting swaps which carry the direct opposite terms and cash flows of our existing swap agreement. As consideration for the overlay swaps, PLDT will pay an average fixed rate of 10.84% on a semi-annual basis over the life of the offsetting swaps. These overlay swap agreements have an aggregate mark-to-market gains of Php356 million and Php178 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

SPi Group

In February and March 2011, SPi and SPi CRM entered into several forward foreign exchange contracts with various financial institutions to hedge a portion of monthly dollar denominated revenues and peso denominated expenses maturing March 2011 up to October 2012. The gains and losses on such contracts are expected to be recognized in profit or loss upon occurrence of the monthly dollar revenues and monthly peso expenses hedged.

On December 6, 2011, SPi CRM changed its functional currency from Philippine peso to U.S. dollar resulting to all outstanding hedges to become ineffective starting from that date and marked-to-market gains and losses thereafter are recognized in profit or loss. The mark-to-market gain recognized in the profit or loss arising from ineffective hedge as of December 31, 2011 by SPi CRM amounted to Php8 million. The outstanding forward exchange contracts that were designated as hedges amounted to US$29 million and US$24.4 million for SPi and SPi CRM, respectively, as at December 31, 2011.

In January 2012, SPi CRM pre-terminated all outstanding ineffective hedges.

ePLDT Group

Level Up! embedded derivatives were bifurcated from various license contracts and other service agreements denominated in U.S. dollar. The aggregate notional amount of these bifurcated embedded currency forwards amounted to US$1 million as at December 31, 2010. The total mark-to-market gains of these bifurcated embedded currency forwards amounted to Php5 million as at December 31, 2010. There were no outstanding embedded currency forward contracts as at December 31, 2011 due to deconsolidation of Level Up! on July 11, 2011.

Digitel Group

Interest Rate Swap

On October 7, 2008, DMPI entered in an eight-year interest rate swap agreement with a total notional amount of US$54.1 million to hedge its interest rate exposures on the US$59.2 million USD Loan Facility maturing in March 2017 into fixed interest rate. Under this agreement, Digitel is entitled to receive a floating rate of equivalent to the USD LIBOR rate as of the last Calculation Date and in exchange, will pay a fixed rate of 3.88%. As at December 31, 2011, the outstanding notional amount under this agreement is US$37 million.

On October 7, 2008, DMPI entered in an eight-year interest rate swap agreement with a total notional amount of US$46.5 million to hedge its interest rate exposures on the US$51.2 million USD Loan Facility maturing in June 2017 into fixed interest rate. Under this agreement, Digitel is entitled to receive a floating rate of equivalent to the USD LIBOR rate as of the last Calculation Date and in exchange, will pay a fixed rate of 3.97%. As at December 31, 2011, the outstanding notional amount under this agreement is US$32 million.

Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies

The main risks arising from our financial instruments are liquidity risk, foreign currency exchange risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. The importance of managing those risks has significantly increased in light of the considerable change and volatility in both the Philippine and international financial markets. Our Board of Directors reviews and approves policies for managing each of these risks. Our policies for managing these risks are summarized below. We also monitor the market price risk arising from all financial instruments.

Liquidity Risk

We manage our liquidity profile to be able to finance our operations and capital expenditures, service our maturing debts and meet our other financial obligations. To cover our financing requirements, we use internally generated funds and proceeds from debt and equity issues and sales of certain assets.

As part of our liquidity risk management program, we regularly evaluate our projected and actual cash flows, including our loan maturity profiles, and continuously assess conditions in the financial markets for opportunities to pursue fund-raising initiatives. These activities may include bank loans, export credit agency-guaranteed facilities, debt capital and equity market issues.

Any excess funds are primarily invested in short-term and principal-protected bank products that provide flexibility of withdrawing the funds anytime. We also allocate a portion of our cash in longer tenor investments such as fixed income securities issued or guaranteed by the Republic of the Philippines, and Philippine banks and corporates, managed funds and other structured products linked to the Republic of the Philippines. We regularly evaluate available financial products and monitor market conditions for opportunities to enhance yields at acceptable risk levels. Our investments are also subject to certain restrictions contained in our debt covenants. Our funding arrangements are designed to keep an appropriate balance between equity and debt and to provide financing flexibility while enhancing our businesses.

We have letters of credit amounting to Php913 million as at December 31, 2011 and certain financial instruments that are allocated to meet our short-term liquidity needs. These financial instruments are cash and cash equivalents, and short-term investments amounting to Php46,057 million and Php558 million, respectively, as at December 31, 2011. See Note 15 – Cash and Cash Equivalents.

Total obligations under these various agreements amounted to approximately Php88,039 million and Php64,541 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. See Note 22 – Accounts Payable and Note 23 – Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities.

Commercial Commitments

Our outstanding consolidated commercial commitments, in the form of letters of credit, amounted to Php913 million and Php1,145 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These commitments will expire within one year.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

The revaluation of our foreign currency-denominated financial assets and liabilities as a result of the appreciation or depreciation of the Philippine peso is recognized as foreign exchange gains or losses as at the end of the reporting period. The extent of foreign exchange gains or losses is largely dependent on the amount of foreign currency debt. While a certain percentage of our revenues are either linked to or denominated in U.S. dollars, most of our indebtedness and related interest expense, a substantial portion of our capital expenditures and a portion of our operating expenses are denominated in foreign currencies, mostly in U.S. dollars. As such, a strengthening or weakening of the Philippine peso against the U.S. dollar will decrease or increase in Philippine peso terms both the principal amount of our foreign currency-denominated debts and the related interest expense, our foreign currency-denominated capital expenditures and operating expenses as well as our U.S. dollar-linked and U.S. dollar-denominated revenues. In addition, many of our financial ratios and other financial tests are affected by the movements in the Philippine peso to U.S. dollar exchange rate.

To manage our foreign exchange risks and to stabilize our cash flows in order to improve investment and cash flow planning, we enter into forward foreign exchange contracts, currency swap contracts, currency option contracts and other hedging products aimed at reducing and/or managing the adverse impact of changes in foreign exchange rates on our operating results and cash flows. We use forward foreign exchange purchase contracts, currency swap contracts and foreign currency option contracts to manage the foreign currency risks associated with our foreign currency-denominated loans. We also enter into forward foreign exchange sale contracts to manage foreign currency risks associated with our U.S. dollar-linked and U.S. dollar-denominated revenues. In order to manage the hedge costs of these contracts, we utilize structures that include credit-linkage

with PLDT as the reference entity, a combination of foreign currency option contracts, and fixed to floating coupon only swap contracts. We accounted for these instruments as either cash flow hedges, wherein changes in the fair value are recognized as cumulative translation adjustments in other comprehensive income until the hedged transaction affects our consolidated income statement or when the hedging instrument expires, or transactions not designated as hedges, wherein changes in the fair value are recognized directly as income or expense for the year.

The following table shows our consolidated foreign currency-denominated monetary financial assets and liabilities and their Philippine peso equivalents as at December 31, 2011 and 2010:

(1) | The exchange rate used to translate the U.S. dollar amounts into Philippine peso was Php43.92 to US$1.00, the Philippine peso-U.S. dollar exchange rate as quoted through the Philippine Dealing System as at December 31, 2011.

(2) | The exchange rate used to translate the U.S. dollar amounts into Philippine peso was Php43.81 to US$1.00, the Philippine peso-U.S. dollar exchange rate as quoted through the Philippine Dealing System as at December 31, 2010.

As at March 21, 2012, the Philippine peso-U.S. dollar exchange rate was Php43.05 to US$1.00. Using this exchange rate, our consolidated net foreign currency-denominated financial liabilities would have decreased in Philippine peso terms by Php1,089 million as at December 31, 2011.

Approximately 47% and 43% of our total consolidated debts (net of consolidated debt discount) were denominated in U.S. dollars as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Consolidated foreign currency-denominated debt decreased to Php53,329 million as at December 31, 2011 from Php38,414 million as at December 31, 2010. See Note 20 – Interest-bearing Financial Liabilities. The aggregate notional amount of PLDT’s outstanding long-term principal only-currency swap contracts were US$262 million as at December 31, 2011 and 2010. Consequently, the unhedged portion of our consolidated debt amounts was approximately 37% (or 30%, net of our consolidated U.S. dollar cash balances) and 30% (or 23%, net of our consolidated U.S. dollar cash balances) as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Approximately, 30% of our consolidated service revenues were denominated in U.S. dollars and/or were linked to U.S. dollars for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared with approximately 30% and 32% for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Our consolidated expenses were denominated in U.S. dollars and/or were linked to U.S. dollars was approximately 17% for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared with approximately 19% and 20% for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. In this respect, the appreciation of the weighted average exchange rate of the Philippine peso against the U.S. dollar decreased our revenues and expenses, and consequently, our cash flow from operations in terms of Philippine peso.

The Philippine peso had depreciated by 0.25% against the U.S. dollar to Php43.92 to US$1.00 as at December 31, 2011 from Php43.81 to US$1.00 as at December 31, 2010. As at December 31, 2010, the Philippine peso had appreciated by 5.64% against the U.S. dollar to Php43.81 to US$1.00 from Php46.43 to US$1.00 as at December 31, 2009. As a result of our consolidated foreign exchange movements as well as the amount of our consolidated outstanding net foreign currency financial assets and liabilities, we recognized net consolidated foreign exchange losses of Php744 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, while we recognized net consolidated foreign exchange gains of Php1,807 million and Php909 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. See Note 4 – Operating Segment Information.

Management conducted a survey among our banks to determine the outlook of the Philippine peso-U.S. dollar exchange rate until our next reporting date of December 31, 2012. Our outlook is that the Philippine peso-U.S. dollar exchange rate may weaken/strengthen by 5.05% as compared to the exchange rate of Php43.92 to US$1.00 as at December 31, 2011. If the Philippine peso-U.S. dollar exchange rate had weakened/strengthened by 5.05% as at December 31, 2011, with all other variables held constant, profit after tax for the year end 2011 would have been approximately Php1,630 million higher/lower and our consolidated stockholders’ equity as at year end 2011 would have been approximately Php1,609 million higher/lower, mainly as a result of consolidated foreign exchange gains and losses on translation of U.S. dollar-denominated net assets/liabilities and mark-to-market valuation of derivative financial instruments. If the Philippine peso-U.S. dollar exchange rate had weakened/strengthened by 5.27% as at December 31, 2010, with all other variables held constant, profit after tax for the year 2010 would have been approximately Php1,099 million higher/lower and our consolidated stockholders’ equity as at year end 2010 would have been approximately Php1,089 million higher/lower, mainly as a result of consolidated foreign exchange gains and losses on translation of U.S. dollar-denominated net assets/liabilities and mark-to-market valuation of derivative financial instruments.

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to our long-term debt obligations and short-term borrowings with floating interest rates.

Our policy is to manage interest cost through a mix of fixed and variable rate debts. We evaluate the fixed to floating ratio of our loans in line with movements of relevant interest rates in the financial markets. Based on our assessment, new financing will be priced either on a fixed or floating rate basis. On a limited basis, we enter into interest rate swap agreements in order to manage our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. We make use of hedging instruments and structures solely for reducing or managing financial risk associated with our liabilities and not for trading purposes.

Fixed rate financial instruments are subject to fair value interest rate risk while floating rate financial instruments are subject to cash flow interest rate risk.

Repricing of floating rate financial instruments is mostly done on intervals of three months or six months. Interest on fixed rate financial instruments is fixed until maturity of the particular instrument.

Management conducted a survey among our banks to determine the outlook of the U.S. dollar and Philippine peso interest rates until our next reporting date of December 31, 2012. Our outlook is that the U.S. dollar and Philippine peso interest rates may move 5 basis points and 100 basis points higher/lower, respectively, as compared to levels as at December 31, 2011. If U.S. dollar interest rates had been 5 basis points higher/lower as compared to market levels as at December 31, 2011, with all other variables held constant, profit after tax for the year and our consolidated stockholders’ equity as at year end 2011 would have been approximately Php25 million lower/higher, mainly as a result of higher/lower interest expense on floating rate borrowings and loss/gain on derivative transactions. If Philippine peso interest rates had been 100 basis points higher/lower as compared to market levels as at December 31, 2011, with all other variables held constant, profit after tax for the year and our consolidated stockholders’ equity as at year end 2011 would have been approximately Php317 million lower/higher, mainly as a result of higher/lower interest expense on floating rate borrowings and loss/gain on derivative transactions. If U.S. dollar interest rates had been 15 basis points higher/lower as compared to market levels as at December 31, 2010, with all other variables held constant, profit after tax for the year and our consolidated stockholders’ equity as at year end 2010 would have been approximately Php56 million lower/higher, mainly as a result of higher/lower interest expense on floating rate borrowings and loss/gain on derivative transactions. If Philippine peso interest rates had been 220 basis points higher/lower as compared to market levels as at December 31, 2010, with all other variables held constant, profit after tax for the year and our consolidated stockholders’ equity as at year end 2010 would have been approximately Php785 million lower/higher, mainly as a result of higher/lower interest expense on floating rate borrowings and loss/gain on derivative transactions.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk that we will incur a loss arising from our customers, clients or counterparties that fail to discharge their contracted obligations. We manage and control credit risk by setting limits on the amount of risk we are willing to accept for individual counterparties and by monitoring exposures in relation to such limits.

##### Table of Contents

We trade only with recognized and creditworthy third parties. It is our policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an on-going basis to reduce our exposure to bad debts.

We established a credit quality review process to provide regular identification of changes in the creditworthiness of counterparties. Counterparty limits are established and reviewed periodically based on latest available financial data on our counterparties’ credit ratings, capitalization, asset quality and liquidity. Our credit quality review process allows us to assess the potential loss as a result of the risks to which we are exposed and allow us to take corrective actions.

The table below shows the maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of our consolidated statement of financial position, including derivative financial instruments as at December 31, 2011 and 2010:

Impairment Assessments

The main consideration for the impairment assessment include whether any payments of principal or interest are overdue by more than 90 days or whether there are any known difficulties in the cash flows of counterparties, credit rating downgrades, or infringement of the original terms of the contract. Our impairment assessments are classified into two areas: individually assessed allowance and collectively assessed allowances.

Individually assessed allowance

We determine the allowance appropriate for each individually significant loan or advance on an individual basis. Items considered when determining allowance amounts include the sustainability of the counterparty’s business plan, its ability to improve performance once a financial difficulty has arisen, projected receipts and the expected dividend payout should bankruptcy ensue, the availability of other financial support, the realizable value of collateral, if any, and the timing of the expected cash flows. The impairment losses are evaluated at each reporting date, unless unforeseen circumstances require more careful attention.

Collectively assessed allowances

Allowances are assessed collectively for losses on loans and advances that are not individually significant and for individually significant loans and advances where there is no objective evidence of individual impairment. Allowances are evaluated on each reporting date with each portfolio receiving a separate review.

The collective assessment takes account of impairment that is likely to be present in the portfolio even though there is no objective evidence of the impairment in an individual assessment. Impairment losses are estimated by taking into consideration the following information: historical losses on the portfolio, current economic conditions, the approximate delay between the time a loss is likely to have been incurred and the time it is identified as requiring an individually assessed impairment allowance, and expected receipts and recoveries once impaired. The impairment allowance is then reviewed by credit management to ensure alignment with our policy.

Capital Management Risk

We aim to achieve an optimal capital structure in pursuit of our business objectives which include maintaining healthy capital ratios and strong credit ratings, and maximizing shareholder value.

In recent years, our cash flow from operations has allowed us to substantially reduce debts and, in 2005, resume payment of dividends on common shares. Since 2005, our strong cash flow has enabled us to make investments in new areas and pay higher dividends.

Our approach to capital management focuses on balancing the allocation of cash and the incurrence of debt as we seek new investment opportunities for new businesses and growth areas. Our current dividend policy is to pay out 70% of our core earnings per share. Further, in the event no investment opportunities arise, we may consider the option of returning additional cash to our shareholders in the form of special dividends or share buybacks. Philippine corporate regulations prescribe, however, that we can only pay out dividends or make capital distribution up to the amount of our unrestricted retained earnings.

As part of our goal to maximize returns to our shareholders, we obtained in 2008 an approval from the Board of Directors to conduct a share buyback program for up to five million PLDT common shares. According to the share buyback program, as at December 31, 2011, we acquired a total of approximately 2.72 million shares of PLDT’s common stock for a total consideration of Php6,505 million, representing approximately 1% of PLDT’s outstanding shares of common stock, at a weighted average price of Php2,388 per share. See Note 8 – Earnings Per Common Share and Note 19 – Equity.

Some of our debt instruments contain covenants that impose maximum leverage ratios. In addition, our credit ratings from the international credit ratings agencies are based on our ability to remain within certain leverage ratios.

We monitor capital using several financial leverage measurements calculated in conformity with PFRS, such as net consolidated debt to equity ratio. Net consolidated debt is derived by deducting cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments from total debt (long-term debt, including current portion and notes payable). Our objective is to maintain our net consolidated debt to equity ratio below 100%.

The table below provides information regarding our consolidated debt to equity ratio as at December 31, 2011 and 2010:

|  | 2011 |  |  | 2010 |
