Out of the total outstanding lines at the end of 4Q04, 10,220 lines, or 6%, were from Wholesale customers, which compares to 6,850 lines, or 5%, at the end of 4Q03, and 11,320 lines, or 7%, at the end of 3Q04. During September 2004 we initiated the deployment of public telephones within areas where we already have coverage. Out of the total lines in service at the end of 4Q04, 492 lines were from public telephones.

During 4Q04 line construction was higher at 29,243 lines, from 1,232 constructed lines in the same period of 2003; and more than twice when compared to 12,816 constructed lines during 3Q04. On a full year basis, line construction increased five fold from 9,367 in 2003 to 52,918 in 2004.

During 4Q04, the monthly churn rate was 2.0%, lower than the 2.4% monthly average churn during 4Q03. When compared to 3Q04, churn rate remained at 2.0%. Voluntary churn in 4Q04 resulted in the disconnection of 2,787 lines, a rate of 0.6%, similar to the rate registered in 3Q04 with 2,717 disconnected lines. Involuntary churn resulted in the disconnection of 6,028 lines, a rate of 1.3%, which is in line with 5,588 disconnected lines in 3Q04.

Full year churn for 2004 at 2.0% improved when compared to 2.6% in 2003.

COST OF NETWORK OPERATION:

Cost of Network Operation in 4Q04 was Ps$78.1 million, a 2% decrease when compared to Ps$79.9 million in 4Q03. Over the same period, outbound traffic grew 18%, showing an improvement on a cost per minute basis. The Ps$1.8 million decrease in Cost of Network Operation was generated by: (i) Ps$4.1 million, or 8%, increase in network operating services, mainly driven by Ps$4.1 million higher calling party pays interconnection charges; Ps$1.2 million higher cost of circuits; and, Ps$0.6 million higher AsistelMax, lease of ports and other services cost, which were partially offset by Ps$1.8 million lower long distance interconnection; (ii) Ps$1.9 million higher Technical expenses, basically as a result of Ps$1.3 million higher maintenance expenses; (iii) Ps$6.4 million decrease related to the sale of telecommunications equipment to one single customer under a lease of capacity agreement (see “Maxcom Telecomunicaciones 4th Quarter 2003 and full year 2003 results” released on April 16, 2004); and, (iv) Ps$1.4 million, or 29%, decrease in installation expenses and cost of disconnected lines.

Cost of Network Operation decreased 4% quarter-over-quarter when compared to Ps$81.2 million in 3Q04. Network operating services decreased Ps$3.3 million, or 6%, mainly driven by (i) Ps$3.6 million lower long distance reselling cost as a result of better routing of long distance traffic; (ii) Ps$0.8 million lower leases of circuits and ports; (iii) Ps$0.1 lower AsistelMax and other services cost, which were partially offset by Ps$1.2 million higher calling party pays charges as a result of increased traffic. Technical expenses remained at Ps$20.9 million, and installation expenses and cost of disconnected lines increased 81% to Ps$3.6 million, basically as a result of a higher number of lines with billed installation charges. On a traffic-related cost basis, the cost per minute improved as outbound traffic increased 4%.

On a full year basis, the Cost of Network Operation increased 6% over 2003 when compared to Ps$306.4 million in 2004. While network operating services increased Ps$15.2 million, or 8%, and installation expenses and cost of disconnected lines decreased Ps$15.2 million, or 57%, technical expenses increased Ps$17.0 million, or 27%. On cost per minute basis, there was an improvement when compared to the previous year, as outbound traffic grew 17% while the Cost of Network Operation increased 6%.

Gross margin at 67% in 4Q04 showed an improvement from 64% reported in 4Q03 and 64% reported in 3Q04.

Full year gross margin improved to 65% from 64% in 2003.

SG&A:

SG&A expenses were Ps$103.5 million in 4Q04, an 11% increase from Ps$92.8 million in 4Q03. The increase was mainly driven by: (i) higher sales commissions of Ps$4.6 million; (ii) higher general and insurance expenses of Ps$4.3 million; (iii) higher advertising of Ps$3.5; (iv) higher bad debt reserve of Ps$3.8 million; and, (v) higher consulting fees of Ps$0.5 million. Higher expenses were partially offset by: (i) lower salaries, wages and benefits of Ps$3.6 million; and, (ii) lower leases and maintenance expenses of Ps$2.3 million.

SG&A expenses in 4Q04 increased 5%, from Ps$98.5 million in 3Q04. This variation was mainly driven by: (i) higher consulting fees of Ps$2.0 million; (ii) higher general and insurance expenses of Ps$2.1 million; (iii) higher sales commissions of Ps$1.9 million; and, (iv) higher leases and maintenance of Ps$0.4 million.

March 22, 2005

On a full year basis, SG&A expenses in 2004 decreased 8%, from Ps$405.5 million in 2003.

Lower expenses were partially offset by: (i) higher advertising of Ps$10.1 million; (ii) higher general, administrative expenses and insurance costs of Ps$4.3 million; and, (iii) higher external sales commissions of Ps$2.8 million.

EBITDA:

EBITDA for 4Q04 increased 7% to Ps$54.6 million, from Ps$51.0 million reported in 4Q03. When compared to 3Q04, EBITDA grew 16% from Ps$47.1 million.

EBITDA margin of 23% remained at the same level of 4Q03, but showed an improvement from 21% in 3Q04.

This is the 7th consecutive quarter that Maxcom reports positive EBITDA. On a full year basis, EBITDA margin improved to 22% in 2004 from 14% in 2003.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES:

Capital Expenditures for 4Q04 were Ps$139.8 million, four times the Ps$27.4 million reported in 4Q03, and a 33% increase when compared to Ps$104.9 million in 3Q04.

Full year Capital Expenditures for 2004 were Ps$329.0 million, 167% higher when compared to Ps$123.0 million in 2003.

CASH POSITION:

Maxcom’s cash position at the end of 4Q04 was Ps$65.7 million in Cash and Cash Equivalents, including Ps$5.5 million of restricted cash in connection with a banking financing obtained in 2004, compared to Ps$43.9 million at the end of 4Q03. Cash and Cash Equivalents at the end of 3Q04 were Ps$42.3 million.

CAPITALIZATION AND LOCAL FINANCING:

On October 6, 2004, Maxcom announced the expiration of the exchange offer for its Senior Notes due 2007. The exchange offer closed on October 8, 2004. With the completion of this transaction, Maxcom’s indebtedness was substantially reduced by 71% to $52,825,668 from $179,213,590. The Company also significantly improved its debt profile by extending its maturity dates.

The improved capital structure allowed Maxcom to access funds in the local markets and in local currency with the closing of its first bank facility in November 2004. Currently, Maxcom is actively working with several local banks to increase the availability of resources to fund its capital expenditures.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:

The provisions of Statement C-15 “Impairment of the Value of Long-Lived Assets and their disposal” (“Bulletin C-15”), issued by the Mexican Institute of Public Accountants (“MIPA”), went into effect on January 1, 2004. Bulletin C-15 establishes general criteria for the identification and, if applicable, recognition of losses from impairment or decrease of value of long-lived tangible and intangible assets, including goodwill. We performed a preliminary valuation to determine the fair value of our long-lived assets at January 31, 2004 upon adoption of Bulletin C-15. The result of the preliminary valuation was that a Ps$56.9 million impairment loss was recorded in the Income Statement on January 1, 2004. The preliminary valuation identified our point-to-point and point-to-multipoint microwave concessions (which expire in 2018) as our most representative asset based on our strategy in place during January 2004, and therefore the financial projections used for the valuation were limited to a 15 year period.

March 22, 2005

A final valuation to determine the fair value of our long-lived assets at January 31, 2004 was performed in 4Q04 based on our strategy in place at the end of the year. The final valuation identified our National Telephony Concession (which expires in 2027) as our most representative asset. The National Telephony Concession had no cost and thus a zero book value as disclosed in the notes to our consolidated financial statements. The life of the Telephony Concession was utilized as the period over which to include financial projections to determine the fair value of our long-lived assets, resulting in no impairment of our long-lived assets; and, therefore, the impairment loss of Ps$56.9 million recorded in January 2004 was reversed in 4Q04.

The tables on pages 9 and 10 show our 2004 consolidated financial statements for 1Q04, 2Q04 and 3Q04 as reported and table on page 11 shows selected balance sheet items for the same periods on a proforma basis to exclude the effect the impairment recorded in 1Q04.
