Centennial Communications Corp. (NASDAQ: CYCL) ("Centennial") today reported income from continuing operations of $0.3 million, or $0.00 per diluted share, for the fiscal third quarter of 2007 as compared to a loss from continuing operations of $2.7 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, in the fiscal third quarter of 2006. The fiscal third quarter of 2007 included $1.9 million of stock-based compensation expense due to the Company's adoption of SFAS 123R (expensing for stock options). Consolidated adjusted operating income (AOI)(1) from continuing operations for the fiscal third quarter was $84.6 million, as compared to $83.0 million for the prior-year quarter. Consolidated AOI for the fiscal third quarter included a $5.4 million charge for an adjustment to Universal Service Fund (USF) revenue in Puerto Rico related to calendar year 2004 (the "USF charge")(2). Excluding the USF charge, consolidated AOI was $90.0 million, an increase of 8 percent versus the fiscal third quarter of 2006.
"Our U.S. wireless business continues to grow retail revenue and cash flow at an impressive pace, once again illustrating that our local market strategy wins with a quality footprint, strong retail distribution presence and clear brand message," said Michael J. Small, Centennial's chief executive officer. "Momentum in our U.S. wireless business is very strong."
Small continued, "In Puerto Rico, we revitalized our wireless business with a successful unlimited offering and now see evidence of renewed customer growth, improving customer retention and stable ARPU. With these key operating metrics moving in the right direction, our focus will turn to steady cash flow growth."
Centennial reported fiscal third-quarter consolidated revenue from continuing operations of $229.1 million after giving effect to the USF charge. Excluding the USF charge, consolidated revenue was $234.5 million, which included $126.5 million from U.S. wireless and $108.0 million from Puerto Rico operations. Consolidated revenue from continuing operations excluding the USF charge grew 10 percent versus the fiscal third quarter of 2006. The Company ended the quarter with 1,085,500 total wireless subscribers, which compares to 1,018,000 for the year-ago quarter and 1,058,700 for the previous quarter ended November 30, 2006. The Company reported 397,800 total access lines and equivalents at the end of the fiscal third quarter, which compares to 327,100 for the year-ago quarter.

CENTENNIAL SEGMENT HIGHLIGHTS
U.S. Wireless Operations
-- Revenue was $126.5 million, a 15 percent increase from last year's
third quarter. Retail revenue (total revenue excluding roaming revenue)
increased 22 percent from the year-ago period primarily driven by an 8
percent increase in total retail subscribers, and supported by strong
equipment, feature, data and access revenue. Roaming revenue decreased 21
percent from the year-ago quarter as a result of a 16 percent decline in
total roaming traffic.
-- Average revenue per user (ARPU) was $67 during the fiscal third
quarter, a 6 percent year-over-year increase. ARPU included approximately
$3.33 of data revenue per user, which grew 28 percent from the fiscal
second quarter.
-- AOI was $44.7 million, a 26 percent year-over-year increase,
representing an AOI margin of 35 percent. AOI benefited from strong growth
in retail revenue, partially offset by a decline in roaming revenue.
-- U.S. wireless ended the quarter with 686,100 total subscribers
including 51,300 wholesale subscribers. This compares to 638,600 for the
prior-year quarter including 50,900 wholesale subscribers and to 666,400
for the previous quarter ended November 30, 2006 including 51,300 wholesale
subscribers. At the end of the fiscal third quarter, approximately 90
percent of U.S. retail wireless subscribers were on GSM calling plans.
Postpaid subscribers increased 17,200 from the fiscal second quarter of
2007, supported by stable postpaid churn of 1.8 percent.
-- Capital expenditures were $17.9 million for the fiscal third quarter.
Puerto Rico Wireless Operations
-- Revenue was $75.2 million after giving effect to the USF charge.
Excluding the USF charge, revenue was $79.8 million, an increase of 5
percent from the prior-year third quarter, driven primarily by subscriber
growth and stable ARPU.
-- Excluding the USF charge, postpaid ARPU was $68, which was unchanged
when compared to the fiscal second quarter. ARPU included approximately
$5.40 of data revenue per user, which grew 25 percent from the fiscal
second quarter.
-- AOI totaled $23.6 million after giving effect to the USF charge.
Excluding the USF charge, AOI was $28.2 million, a 12 percent year-over-
year decrease, representing an AOI margin of 35 percent. AOI was pressured
by higher customer acquisition costs related to the Company's launch of its
unlimited wireless offering and increased equipment expense related to
customer retention efforts.
-- Puerto Rico wireless ended the quarter with 399,400 subscribers, which
compares to 379,400 for the prior-year quarter and to 392,300 for the
previous quarter ended November 30, 2006. Postpaid subscribers increased
8,200 from the fiscal second quarter of 2007 on lower postpaid churn of 2.5
percent.

Excluding the USF charge, revenue was $31.1 million, a 7 percent year-over-
year increase. AOI was $16.3 million after giving effect to the USF
charge. Excluding the USF charge, AOI was $17.0 million, a 9 percent
increase from the year-ago period, representing an AOI margin of 55
percent. Revenue and AOI increased primarily due to solid access line
growth.
-- Switched access lines totaled approximately 72,500 at the end of the
fiscal third quarter, an increase of 5,000 lines, or 7 percent from the
prior-year quarter. Dedicated access line equivalents were 325,300 at the
