Vienna, November 14, 2006 Telekom Austria AG (VSE: TKA; NYSE: TKA) today announced its
results for the first nine months of 2006 and the third quarter ending September 30, 2006.
Year-to-date comparison:
During the first nine months of 2006, group revenue increased by 11.4% to EUR 3,560.3 million
primarily due to the consolidation of Mobiltel.
Both segments contributed to the 24.2% growth in group operating income to EUR 695.7 million, also
due to the acquisition of Mobiltel. Group operating income before depreciation, amortization and
impairment charges (adjusted EBITDA) rose by 11.2% to EUR 1,531.7 million.
Consolidated net income of Telekom Austria Group rose by 34.7% to EUR 498.5 million driven by
higher operating income. Earnings per share grew by 38.8% to EUR 1.05 during 1-9M 06.
Group capital expenditure for tangible and intangible assets increased by 11.5% to EUR 421.4
million during 1-9M 06 primarily due to the consolidation of Mobiltel.
Net debt decreased by 6.1% to EUR 2,923.3 million at the end of September 2006 compared to EUR
3,113.7 million at the end of December 2005. The net debt to equity ratio (net gearing)
decreased by 4.6 percentage points to 102.1% at the end of September 2006 compared to the end
of December 2005.
Quarterly comparison:
Group revenue increased by 3.7% to EUR 1,232.3 million compared to the same period in 2005.
Wireline revenue decreased by 0.4% to EUR 529.8 million in 3Q 06 as higher revenue from Internet
access and wholesale partly offset lower voice revenue. Wireless revenue increased by 7.2% to EUR
772.9 million in 3Q 06, primarily due to the strong performance of the international operations.
Group operating income rose by 6.6% to EUR 281.6 million during 3Q 06 with the increase in the
wireless segment more than offsetting lower operating income in the wireline segment. Group
depreciation and amortization charges fell from EUR 284.9 million in 2Q 06 to EUR 268.3 million in
3Q 06 as a result of expiration of depreciation and amortization cycles.
Group adjusted EBITDA rose by 0.7% to EUR 549.9 million in 3Q 06 as growth in the wireless segment
offset a decline in the wireline segment.
Net income rose by 16.0% to EUR 213.6 million in 3Q 06 and earnings per share increased by 19.9% to
EUR 0.45.
Group capital expenditure for tangible and intangible assets increased by 15.6% to EUR 148.5
million during 3Q 06 mainly due to higher UMTS and HSDPA investments in Bulgaria and Austria.

Group Review
Revenue
and operating income by segment
Wireline
Year-to-date comparison:
Wireline revenue decreased slightly by 0.5% to EUR 1,584.0 million during the first nine
months of 2006. Higher revenue from Internet access & media and wholesale voice telephony &
Internet partly offset lower revenue from switched voice traffic and switched voice monthly rental
& other. Wireline revenue was also impacted as lower mobile termination rates were passed on to
fixed line customers through lower tariffs.
Operating income during 1-9M 06 increased by 11.6% to EUR 130.4 million compared to the same period
last year supported by a 9.7% decline of depreciation and amortization charges.
Operating income before depreciation, amortization and impairment charges (adjusted EBITDA)
decreased by 5.7% to EUR 600.2 million during the first nine months of 2006 compared to the
previous years period as a result of lower revenue and higher operating expenses. The latter were
driven by higher personnel and interconnection costs.
Quarterly comparison:
The number of ADSL lines (including 121,000 wholesale lines) rose by 27.4% to 670,000 by the
end of the third quarter of 2006. The number of ADSL net adds grew to 32,400 in 3Q 06 compared to
the 30,700 recorded in the same period last year.
ADSL ARPU declined by 6.4% to EUR 27.9 in 3Q 06 driven by a shift in customer mix from higher
priced packages towards entry level packages as well as promotions based on the waiver of the
monthly provider fee for a limited period of time. The number of unbundled lines rose by 64.7% to
178,800 compared to 108,600 at the end of September 2005 with the growth rate on a quarter on
quarter basis declining from 11.9% in 3Q 05 to 9.9% in 3Q 06.
Total voice minutes declined by 9.4% to 1.1 billion in 3Q 06 mainly due to lower national fixed
line calls as a result of a lower number of access lines in combination with a lower usage due to
fixed-to-mobile migration. Including Internet dial-up, total minutes declined by 18.0% to 1.4
billion reflecting the migration of dial-up customers to higher value broadband products.
Telekom Austria further increased its voice market share to 57.3% at the end of September 06
compared to 55.9% at the same time last year. This was primarily due to successful customer
retention.
The overall market measured by minutes declined by 11.3% whereas Telekom Austrias minutes declined
by 9.4%. Market share including Internet dial-up increased to 57.3% compared to 56.2% at the end of
September 05.
Wireline revenue decreased by 0.4% to EUR 529.8 million during 3Q 06 compared to the same period
last year. Higher revenue contributions from Internet access & media and wholesale voice telephony
& Internet partly offset lower revenue from switched voice traffic and switched voice monthly
rental & other.

Telekom Austria Group: Results for the First Nine Months 2006 3
Switched voice traffic revenue decreased by 12.3% to EUR 85.6 million as a result of a lower
traffic volume and as reductions of mobile termination rates were passed on to fixed line customers
through lower tariffs. The average voice tariff remained unchanged at 7.7 cents per minute in 3Q 06
compared to the same period last year. Lower fixed-to-mobile tariffs following the reduction of
termination rates were offset by higher national tariffs due to a shift in call mix and a positive
impact from bonus packages.
Revenue from switched voice monthly rental & other declined by 5.8% to EUR 129.8 million due to a
lower number of access lines and waived installation charges during sales promotions. At the end
of September 2006, the number of access lines was 2.70 million compared to 2.82 million at the same
time last year.
Revenue from payphones & value added services in 3Q 06 declined by 3.3% to EUR 11.8 million. Higher
revenue contributions from event-based premium rate services could partly offset lower revenue from
payphones.
Lower prices and substitution of classic data solutions by IP-based voice and network services
weakened revenue from data & IT-solutions by 1.5% to EUR 102.7 million.
Revenue from Internet access & media grew by 10.7% to EUR 66.0 million supported by the migration
of former dial-up customers to higher value ADSL products.
Wholesale voice telephony & Internet revenue grew by 15.1% to EUR 103.9 million with international
and national wholesale contributing nearly equally to the increase. Despite lower wholesale voice
volumes, a higher number of unbundled lines led to a strong performance in national wholesale.
International wholesale grew as more minutes were terminated in more expensive international mobile
networks.
Other wireline revenue increased slightly by 0.3% to EUR 30.0 million as terminal equipment sales
more than compensated the decline in revenue from PABXs.
Depreciation, amortization and impairment charges declined by 9.7% due to strict capital
expenditure management and operating income fell by 6.7% to EUR 52.6 million in 3Q 06.
Operating expenses increased mainly due to higher employee costs, costs for services received and
to a lesser extent to interconnection costs. Employee costs rose significantly by 9.5% due to
higher severance payments, expenses for stock options and wage increases under the collective
bargaining agreement. Higher expenses for leased lines led to an increase of costs for services
received.
Operating income before depreciation, amortization and impairment charges (adjusted EBITDA)
declined by 8.9% to EUR 199.4 million in the third quarter 2006 as a result of lower revenue and
higher operating expenses.
Czech On Line reported 169,500 subscribers at the end of September 2006 compared to 199,200 at the
same time last year. The decline is primarily due to the sustained churn of customers caused by the
end of the product life cycle in dial-up Internet access and could only be partly offset by higher
customer numbers in broadband and voice access.
Revenue of Czech On Line grew by 12.0% to EUR 5.6 million in the reporting quarter compared to the
third quarter of 2005. Operating income almost broke even with a loss of EUR 0.1 million in 3Q 06
after a loss of 1.0 million in 3Q 05, as a result of strong revenue growth and strict cost
control.
Adjusted EBITDA turned positive to a profit of EUR 0.6 million in the reporting quarter from a loss
of EUR 0.3 million in 3Q 05.
Czech On Line focuses its marketing and sales activities on access technology via local loop
unbundling at selected locations and seeks to become a provider of dual play with data
and VoIP services.
4 Telekom Austria Group: Results for the First Nine Months 2006
Wireless
Year-to-date comparison:
Revenue in the wireless segment rose by 21.9% to EUR 2,172.0 million during the first nine
months of 2006. This growth was primarily driven by the contribution of Mobiltel. On a comparable
basis, excluding Mobiltel, wireless revenue increased by 5.4% to EUR 1,744.4 million. Organic
growth was primarily driven by higher traffic and national roaming revenue in Croatia. Slovenia
reported strong traffic revenue growth due to a higher average subscriber base and an increase in
usage per subscriber.
Operating income increased by 27.4% to EUR 563.1 million and operating income before
depreciation, amortization and impairment charges (adjusted EBITDA) increased by 25.8% to EUR 929.6
million mainly due to the contribution of Mobiltel. Excluding Mobiltel, wireless operating income
rose by 3.3% to EUR 405.5 million and operating income before depreciation, amortization and
impairment charges (adjusted EBITDA) increased by 1.8% to EUR 670.7 million as a result of higher
operating revenue.
Quarterly comparison:
As of September 30, 2006, the total number of customers in the wireless segment grew by 15.7%
to 9.78 million compared to the same period last year. This is a result of the strong market
performance in all countries in which Telekom Austria Group operates.
Wireless revenue increased by 7.2% to EUR 772.9 million in 3Q 06 compared to the same period last
year mainly through the higher contribution of Mobiltel as a result of a 11 day longer
consolidation period as well as higher monthly rental and traffic revenue. Vipnet and Si.mobil
showed strong traffic revenue as a result of a larger average subscriber base and higher usage per
subscriber. Roaming revenue exceeded last years level, mainly driven by higher national roaming in
Croatia and Austria.
Operating income increased by 10.3% in 3Q 06 to EUR 228.7 million, as revenue growth more than
offset the 6.3% increase in wireless expenses. Operating income before depreciation, amortization
and impairment charges (adjusted EBITDA) rose by 7.2% to EUR 350.3 million in 3Q 06.
Data revenue as a percentage of traffic-related revenue amounted to 19.4% in 3Q 06 compared to
17.1% in 3Q 05.
mobilkom
austria
mobilkom austria gained 56,500 net adds during the third quarter and increased its customer
base by 6.6% to 3.53 million subscribers at the end of September 2006 compared to 3.31 million at
the end of September 2005. The share of contract subscribers rose to 59.3% at the end of September
2006 compared to 55.8% in the same period of the previous year. This growth was mainly supported by
the introduction of unlimited tariffs in September last year as well as the demand for the
Vodafone Mobile Connect card. Furthermore, mobilkom austria kept the churn rate stable at 4.4% in
3Q 06 compared to 3Q 05.
Austrian mobile penetration was 110.9% at the end of 3Q 06 compared to 102.6% at the end of 3Q 05.
The market share of mobilkom austria decreased to 38.8% at the end of September 2006 compared to
39.5% in the same period of last year as the low price segment in which smaller competitors
participated to a

Telekom Austria Group: Results for the First Nine Months 2006 5
disproportionate degree grew faster than the overall market.
As a reaction to this market dynamic mobilkom austria introduced a no-frills offer under the name
bob in July 2006. bob is a SIM-only contract product without a monthly fee offering low priced
calls in Austria using mobilkom austrias network. bob offers basic voice service including
roaming and SMS.
Average minutes of use (MoU) charged per subscriber increased by 15.7% to 154.3 minutes driven by
the introduction of the flat-rate unlimited tariffs in September 2005.
Furthermore average interconnection revenue per user declined following the reductions of mobile
termination rates in November 2005, January 2006 and July 2006. As a consequence average revenue
per user (ARPU) declined by 7.4% to EUR 34.9 partially offset by data ARPU growing by 13.0% to EUR
5.2.
The third quarter 2006 showed further strong performance of the data business which is reflected in
the increase of data revenue as a percentage of traffic-related revenue from 17.5% during 3Q 05 to
21.3% during 3Q 06. By the end of September 2006, mobilkom austria had already sold 109,000
Vodafone Mobile Connect Cards and had more than 1.26 million Vodafone live! customers.
The number of SMS sent increased significantly by 81.0% to 237.7 million in 3Q 06 compared to the
same period last year driven by higher usage per subscriber following the introduction of the
unlimited tariff concept, which features an option for unlimited SMS for a monthly fee, and a
larger average subscriber base.
Revenue of mobilkom austria decreased by 1.3% to EUR 435.8 million compared to 3Q 05. The decrease
was also a consequence of lower interconnection revenue due to the reduction of mobile termination
rates. Voice revenue declined due to lower prices despite more subscriber, higher usage per
subscriber and lower discounts granted. Additionally data revenue increased due to more
subscription sold and higher usage. Roaming revenue increased as a result of higher revenue from
national roaming and higher traffic volume.
Subscriber acquisition costs (SAC) rose by 23.1% to EUR 13.3 million in 3Q 06 and subscriber
retention costs (SRC) increased by 21.1% to EUR 17.2 million. SACs increased due to a higher number
of gross adds despite lower SAC per gross add. SRCs rose as more handsets were replaced.
mobilkom austrias expenses increased as higher traffic resulted in higher costs for leased lines,
site-related costs grew among other things due to UMTS/HSDPA rollout. In addition higher
acquisition and retention costs and higher personnel expenses led to a decrease of operating income
by 8.7% to EUR 100.4 million.
Operating income before depreciation, amortization and impairment charges (adjusted EBITDA)
decreased by 6.3% to EUR 162.4 million during 3Q 06.
Mobiltel
Mobiltel increased its subscriber base by 21.1% to 4.04 million at the end of September 2006
compared to 3.33 million at the end of September 2005. Net additions increased by 84.0% to 181,100
in 3Q 06 compared to 98,400 net adds during 3Q 05. Mobiltel increased its contract subscriber base
to 1.45 million up from 1.18 million at the end of September of the previous year.
Penetration in Bulgaria increased significantly by 27.5 percentage points and stood at 97.2 at the
end of September 2006. Mobiltel defended its position as market leader with a market share of 54.0%
at the end of September 2006 compared to 60.8% at the same time last year despite the entrance of a
fourth mobile operator in 4Q 05.
Churn increased marginally from 5.9% in 3Q 05 to 6.2% in 3Q 06 both influenced by higher prepaid
and contract customer

churn reflecting the competitive market environment.
Average revenue per user (ARPU) declined from EUR 12.8 in 3Q 05 to EUR 11.4 as lower average prices
were only partially offset by an increase of 16.9% in average minutes of use charged per subscriber
(MoU) to 58.1 minutes. Lower average prices were due to increased call volume of cheaper on-net
calls as well as a growing number of subscribers taking up tariff plans with lower prices or free
minutes included for an additional monthly fee.
Mobiltels revenue for the full third quarter period rose by 11.6% to EUR 161.2 million in 3Q 06
compared to 3Q 05 primarily as a result of higher monthly rental revenue, traffic revenue and
deferred revenue in the amount of EUR 4.0 million due to the purchase price allocation in 2005.
Monthly rental revenue benefited from a larger average subscriber base and stable monthly fees.
Traffic revenue increased as a result of increased customer roaming following the introduction of
Vodafone World, which is stimulating usage with lower tariffs.
Mobiltels operating income for the full third quarter period increased by 4.3% to EUR 63.1 million
compared to 3Q 05 despite higher depreciation and amortization charges driven by higher capital
expenditure.
Operating income before depreciation, amortization and impairment charges (adjusted EBITDA)
for the full third quarter period of 2006 rose by 6.3% to EUR 97.2 million compared to 3Q 05 as a
result of higher operating revenue which more than offset higher operating expenses caused by
higher material and interconnection expenses.
Mobiltel has been consolidated into Telekom Austrias wireless segment since July 12, 2005. As a
result, Mobiltels contribution to Telekom Austrias consolidated financial results for 3Q 05 is
less than Mobiltels full 3Q 05 results.
Mobiltel contributed revenue in the amount of EUR 127.5 million, operating income of EUR 49.2
million, adjusted EBITDA of EUR 80.1 and capital expenditures of EUR 14.1 million to Telekom
Austrias wireless segment in 3Q 05.
Vipnet
Vipnet increased its subscriber number considerably by 23.6% to 1.81 million at the end of
September 2006 compared to the end of September 2005. The mobile penetration rate in Croatia
increased by 21.4 percentage points to 94.8% at the end of September 2006 compared to the end of
September 2005. This development was driven by a higher number of gross adds of Vipnet, the
entrance of a new operator in 3Q 05 and partly due to the launch of the no-frills brand tomato by
Vipnet.
The market share of Vipnet decreased from 45.1% at the end of 3Q 05 to 43.2% at the end of 3Q 06
due to the entrance of the third operator.
Churn among customers increased from 0.6% to 3.5% mainly due to an extension of the grace period
for prepaid customers to match the definition used by competitors in 3Q 05 despite a reduction of
postpaid churn.
During the third quarter of 2006 revenue rose by 10.2% to EUR 145.4 million compared to the same
period of 2005 primarily driven by higher traffic and roaming revenue.
Traffic revenue grew as a result of a larger subscriber base and a 7.5% increase of minutes of use
charged per subscriber (MoU) to 87.1 minutes stimulated by a higher number of postpaid subsribers.
Revenue from roaming increased primarily due to the national roaming agreement with Tele2.
In the third quarter of 2006 Vipnets ARPU declined by 16.7% to EUR 17.5 compared to 3Q 05. This
development was caused by new tariffs to match competitors offers with lower on-net calls and thus
reducing the interconnection
Telekom Austria Group: Results for the First Nine Months 2006 7
revenue. In addition a migration of high- value prepaid customers to postpaid reduced the prepaid
ARPU and diluted postpaid ARPU. The impact on blended ARPU was neutral and increased customer
retention.
Operating income of Vipnet increased by 35.8% to EUR 57.7 million in 3Q 06 compared to the same
period last year as a result of higher operating revenue despite higher operating expense and
stable depreciation and amortization charges compared to last years period.
Operating income before depreciation, amortization and impairment charges (adjusted EBITDA)
increased by 21.4% to EUR 77.6 million in the reporting quarter of 2006. Higher operating revenue
more than offset higher marketing and sales costs resulting mainly from the promotion of the
no-frills brand tomato.
Si.mobil
Si.mobils customer base grew by 16.3% to 405,900 at the end of September 2006 compared to
last year. The number of contract subscribers increased by 37.1% to 224,100 resulting in an
increase of the contract share to 55.2% in 3Q 06, up from 46.8% in 3Q 05.
On September 20, 2006 Si.mobil acquired nationwide UMTS frequencies for a total of EUR 6.5 million.
The right of usage of frequencies is valid for a period of 15 years with the legal option to extend
the term.
Si.mobils market share rose to 24.4% at the end of 3Q 2006 compared to 22.1% at the end of 3Q 05
due to the positive market response to marketing campaigns and the exit of a competitor from the
Slovenian market.
The churn rate of Si.mobil declined from 11.4% in 3Q 05 to 4.5% in 3Q 06 driven by less contract
and prepaid churn as the Slovenian regulatory authority laid down new rules for counting customers
in 3Q 05, which mainly concerned prepaid customers.
Slovenian mobile penetration increased from 79.7% at the end of September 2005 to 84.1% at the end
of September 2006 with strong subscriber growth of all market operators stimulating market
expansion.
Average revenue per user (ARPU) increased significantly by 21.6% to EUR 22.5 in 3Q 06 primarily due
to a larger contract subscriber base, higher traffic volume and higher revenue from data usage.
Prepaid ARPU growth is driven by an improvement of the subscriber base.
Primarily due to higher traffic and interconnection revenue Si.mobil reported revenue growth of
33.7% to EUR 37.3 million during 3Q 06 compared to the same period last year.
A higher number of subscribers and stronger ARPU led to the increase of traffic revenue. Higher
usage from SMS, GPRS and Vodafone live! drove data revenue. Interconnection revenue rose as more
volume was terminated on Si.mobils network and due to higher transit volume.
Operating income more than doubled to EUR 6.9 million in 3Q 06 as strong revenue growth could more
than compensate higher material and interconnection expenses.
Operating income before depreciation, amortization and impairment charges (adjusted EBITDA)
increased by 41.4% to EUR 12.3 million during 3Q 06 compared to the same period last year.
8 Telekom Austria Group: Results for the First Nine Months 2006
Consolidated
net profit
Year-to-date comparison:
Net interest expenses in the first nine months of 2006 remained nearly stable compared to the
same period last year. The 36.4% decline in interest income was almost completely offset by a
decrease in interest expenses.
Due to a lower average tax rate and mainly caused by the low statutory income tax rate of 15% in
Bulgaria income tax expenses increased by only 2.3% to EUR 112.9 million in the first nine months
of 2006 despite 24.2% higher operating income as a consequence of the consolidation of Mobiltel. In
addition tax expense was further decreased by EUR 8.7 million due to the recognition of a one-time
deferred tax benefit for which the underlying contingency was resolved in 3Q 06. The effective tax
rate decreased from 23.0% in 1-9M 05 to 19.9% in 1-9M 06, excluding the above mentioned one-time
effect.
Net income rose by 34.7% to EUR 498.5 million during 1-9M 2006 mainly attributable to the
consolidation of Mobiltel.
Basic and diluted earnings per share increased by 38.8% to EUR 1.05 during the first nine months of
2006 compared to the same period last year.
Quarterly comparison:
During 3Q 06 net interest expenses decreased slightly by 3.0% to EUR 29.6 million.
Income tax expenses decreased by 22.5% from EUR 49.7 million in 3Q 05 to EUR 38.5 million in 3Q 06
despite higher taxable income driven by the contribution of Mobiltel due to a lower average tax
rate and the above mentioned one-time effect. The effective tax rate amounted to 18.6% in 3Q 06
versus 21.2% in 3Q 05, excluding the above mentioned one-time effect.
Overall, quarterly net income in 3Q 06 rose by 16.0% to EUR 213.6 million and basic and diluted
earnings per share rose from EUR 0.38 to EUR 0.45.
Capital
expenditure
Year-to-date comparison:
Total capital expenditure for tangible and intangible assets for the first nine months of
2006 increased by 11.5% to EUR 421.4 million. Capital expenditure for tangible assets rose by 4.2%
to EUR 352.0 million and for intangible assets increased by 72.2% to EUR 69.4 million.
The decline of capital expenditure for tangible assets in the wireline segment by 15.7% to EUR
161.8 million was caused by lower investments in the broadband access network, core network and
buildings & infrastructure. Capital expenditure for tangible assets in 1-9M 05 included a one-time
capital expenditure of EUR 16.6 million required under the Austrian Telecommunications Interception
Ordinance to allow Austrian law enforcement agencies to standardize the data exchange.
Capital expenditure for tangible assets in the wireless segment increased by 30.5% to EUR 190.2
million during the first nine months of 2006 compared to same period last year mainly due to the
contribution of Mobiltel. Excluding Mobiltel, wireless expenditure for tangible assets declined by
5.7% to EUR 125.0 million compared to last years level.

Telekom Austria Group: Results for the First Nine Months 2006 9
Capital expenditure for intangible assets in the wireline segment increased by 14.6% to EUR 16.5
million in 1-9M 06 due to higher investments in billing software and licenses and software for
aonDigital TV.
Wireless capital expenditure for intangible assets increased by 104.2% to EUR 52.9 million mainly
as a result of the acquisition of UMTS frequencies by Si.mobil and the HSDPA roll-out in Austria.
Quarterly comparison:
During 3Q 06, group capital expenditure for tangible and intangible assets increased by 15.6%
to EUR 148.5 million. Capital expenditure for tangible assets increased slightly by 0.3% to EUR
115.6 million and intangible assets increased by 149.2% to EUR 32.9 million.
In the wireline segment, capital expenditure for tangible assets decreased by 9.5% to EUR 59.7
million during 3Q 06 as lower investments into the broadband access network and buildings &
infrastructure could offset higher core network investments.
In the wireless segment, capital expenditure for tangible assets increased by 13.4% to EUR 55.9
million in 3Q 06 primarily driven by higher network capex in Croatia and higher investments in
Austria and Bulgaria for UMTS and HSDPA.
Capital expenditure for intangible assets in the wireline segment increased from EUR 2.9 million in
3Q 05 to EUR 4.9 million in 3Q 06 due to increased international rights of use in the wholesale
business and billing software.
Wireless capital expenditure for intangible assets rose by 171.8% to EUR 28.0 million primarily due
to the acquisition of UMTS frequencies in Slovenia and the roll-out of HSDPA in Austria.
Cash
flow and net debt
Year-to-date comparison:
Cash generated from operations totaled EUR 1,159.5 million and remained stable compared to
the same period last year. Higher cash from operations for 1-9M 06 was offset by an expansion of
working capital due to an increase in accounts receivable.
Cash outflows for investing activities decreased to EUR 411.9 million from EUR 1,254.9 million
primarily as a result of the payment of EUR 905.5 for the acquisition of Mobiltel included in the
first nine months of 2005.
Cash from financing activities showed an outflow of EUR 742.7 million during the first nine months
of 2006 compared to an outflow of EUR 54.1 million during the same period of last year. A decrease
in short-term borrowings of EUR 662.0 million and an increase in long-term financing of EUR 275.1
million as well as increased share buy backs and dividend payments were the main drivers of this
development.
Quarterly comparison:
During the reporting quarter cash generated from operations increased by 3.4% to EUR 432.8
million as a result of an improved financial result and an increase
of accounts payable.

10 Telekom Austria Group: Results for the First Nine Months 2006
Cash outflow from investing activities declined from EUR 923.3 million in 3Q 05 to EUR 145.8
million in 3Q 06. The payment for the acquisition of Mobiltel in the third quarter 2005 is the main
cause for this decline despite higher capital expenditure in the current reporting period.
Cash used in financing activities showed an outflow in the amount of EUR 268.7 million in the third
quarter of 2006 declining 15.4% versus the same period last year. Despite an increase of cash used
to acquire treasury shares and higher repayments of short-term debt, lower principal payments on
long-term debt resulted in a lower cash outflow for financing activities. In 3Q 06 a EUR 300
million financing at attractive conditions was obtained.
Net debt decreased by 6.1% from EUR 3,113.7 million as of December 31, 2005 to EUR 2,923.3 million
as of September 30, 2006 as strong cash flow from operations during 1-9M 06 allowed repayments
despite capital expenditures, dividends and acquisition of treasury shares.
The net debt to equity ratio (net gearing) decreased to 102.1% at the end of September, 2006
compared to 106.7% at the end of December, 2005. This development is the result of a lower net debt
level although increased acquisition of treasury shares resulted in lower equity as well.
Net debt includes long-term debt, short- term borrowings, capital leases, cash and cash
equivalents, marketable securities available for sale, short-term financing with related parties as
well as financial instruments included in other assets and other current assets. The short-term
portion of cross-border lease obligations is excluded from short-term borrowings for the
calculation of net debt.
Personnel
The Telekom Austria Group workforce shrank by 81 full time equivalents to 15,467 employees at
the end of September 2006 compared to the same time last year.
The number of wireline employees dropped by 86 or 0.9%.
The wireless segment reported an almost unchanged headcount of 5,968 compared to the 5,963
employees at the end of September 2005.
Business
combination
In accordance with IFRS 3 Telekom Austria has finalized its provisional internal accounting
of the acquisition of Mobiltel in the third quarter 2006 within the twelve month period since the
acquisition date. This resulted in an increase of goodwill, deferred tax liabilities and other
liabilities. Total goodwill was increased by EUR 39.5 million. The finalization of the purchase
accounting had no effect on-net income for all periods presented.
Other
events
On August 23, 2006, the management board decided on a modification of the share buyback
program. Under the modified program the company can acquire up to 50 million shares corresponding
to 10% of the share capital. Based on the authorization of the annual general meeting, Telekom
Austria acquired 6,136,613 treasury shares at an average purchase price of EUR 19.06 for a total
amount of EUR 116.9 million in 3Q 06 compared to 4,262,762 treasury shares for a total amount of
EUR 70.4 million in 3Q 05.

Telekom Austria Group: Results for the First Nine Months 2006 11
On September 30, 2006, Telekom Austria held 32,917,059 treasury shares corresponding to 6.58% of
the shares issued reducing shareholders equity by a total amount of EUR 547.9 million.
Details of the purchases are published each Tuesday on our corporate website at
www.telekom.at/share-buyback
The
following major subsequent events occurred after September 30, 2006:
In October 2006, the national assembly of the republic of Bulgaria agreed to a tax reform,
which will become effective as of January 1, 2007. The reform reduces the corporate income tax rate
from 15% to 10%, which is estimated to result in a tax benefit in the fourth quarter from
revaluation of the estimated deferred tax assets and liabilities. Additionally, in accordance with
the tax reform goodwill amortization will not be allowed for tax purposes starting January 1, 2007
which will result in higher cash taxes.
On October 10, 2006 Telekom Austria announced that ÖIAGs stake in Telekom Austria has fallen from
25.4% at the end of June 30, 2006 to 25.2%. Approximately 1 million shares corresponding to 0.2%
were sold via the stock exchange. Telekom Austrias current free float is 74.8%.
On October 23, 2006 the supervisory board appointed Hans Tschuden as the new Chief Financial Offer
(CFO) of Telekom Austria Group for a period of 5 years starting April 1, 2007. He will succeed
Stefano Colombo, whose mandate expires in spring 2007.
On November 7, 2006 Telekom Austria Group announced the successful bid for the 3rd
licence in Serbia for EUR 320 million and 1 EURO. The granted license is valid for ten years with
the option of automatic renewal for another ten years. Operations will be launched within 6 months.
The licence provides for a coverage of 20% of the population as well as of the three major highways
within 12 months after the grant date. For the network rollout Telekom Austria expects capital
expenditures to amount to approximately EUR 250 million by 2009. Telekom Austria anticipates
positive EBITDA and free cash flow from the new business in 2009.
On November 2, 2006 the Slovenian parliament passed an act gradually reducing the corporate income
tax rate from 25% to 23% in 2007, 22% in 2008, 21% in 2009 and 20% from 2010 on, which is expected
to reduce the effective tax rate accordingly.
Forecast
for 2006 and Multiyear Outlook
The results for the third quarter fully support the outlook for the business year 2006 as
announced with the publication of the half year results in August 2006 and allow for a further
upward revision of expected operating income and net income growth. All key financial figures are
expected to improve in 2006, primarily driven by the consolidation of Mobiltel for full 12 months.
For the financial year 2006 the Telekom Austria Group expects operating revenue to rise by
approximately 5% and adjusted EBITDA by about 10%. Stable depreciation and amortization charges
despite the consolidation of Mobiltel and lower interest expenses, following the withdrawal from
the auction for Mobi 63, allow for a growth of operating income and net income. Telekom Austria
anticipates that both operating income and net income will rise by approximately 30%. Thus, with a
steady payout ratio of 65%, a further increase in the dividend can be expected.
Total capital expenditure for tangible and intangible assets is expected to rise by approximately
8%. Capital expenditure in the wireless segment will rise due to the full-year consolidation of
Mobiltel and higher investments in UMTS and HSDPA technologies in order to maintain our
technological leadership in a competitive environment. Lower investments in the wireline segment
will be unable to offset
12 Telekom Austria Group: Results for the First Nine Months 2006
for this increase. In the wireline segment the migration of voice minutes to mobile communications
networks is expected to continue in 2006, leading to lower revenue and to a decline in adjusted
EBITDA. The broadband business in Austria will continue to grow, but will not fully offset the
decline in traditional voice telephony. Supported by a further reduction in depreciation and
amortization charges, operating income in the wireline segment is expected to show strong growth in
2006.
In the wireless segment the contribution from Mobiltel and good performance of our international
operations is expected to lead to an increase in operating revenue and to an increase in adjusted
EBITDA.
Despite market consolidation in the Austrian market, price competition is expected to remain fierce
on the domestic market, whereby much of the expected growth of the wireless segment will be
generated by Telekom Austrias international subsidiaries. In this environment all companies in the
wireless segment will focus on clearly positioning themselves in their respective markets and
pushing ahead with the expansion of mobile data services.
During the period of 2005 to 2009, disregarding any possible new acquisitions, contribution from
startup operations and the impact of regulation on roaming tariffs proposed by the European
Commission, Telekom Austria expects operating revenue to grow by a compound annual growth rate
(CAGR) of approximately 2%.
Adjusted EBITDA in this period should grow on average by approximately 2.5% per annum. Due to a
continued decline in depreciation and amortization charges and lower interest expenses as a result
of the continued reduction of net debt, Telekom Austria expects net income to rise on average by
approximately 13% per year.
Disclaimer: Although Telekom Austria has conducted diligence customary in acquisitions in Central and Eastern Europe, based on the information to which Telekom Austria was
given access during the acquisition process, Telekom Austria has not been involved in the management of Mobiltel until July 12, 2005. Financial data prior to this period are
given for comparative purposes only. Telekom Austria does not take responsibility for the correctness of these figures.
