Exhibit 99.1
NII HOLDINGS ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER 2014 RESULTS
• | Net loss of 77,000 subscribers, resulting in an ending subscriber base of 9.4 million subscribers |
• | Consolidated operating revenues of $969 million |
• | Consolidated adjusted operating loss before depreciation and amortization (adjusted OIBDA) of ($137) million |
RESTON, Va., August 11, 2014 - NII Holdings, Inc. [NASDAQ: NIHD] today announced its consolidated financial results for the second quarter of 2014. The Company reported a net loss of 77,000 subscribers for the quarter, bringing its quarter-end subscriber base to 9.4 million, a 6 percent decrease from a year ago. Financial results for the second quarter include consolidated operating revenues of $969 million, a 23 percent decrease compared to the second quarter of 2013; consolidated adjusted OIBDA loss, which excludes the impact of non-cash asset impairments, restructuring charges and other unusual items, of $137 million; and a consolidated operating loss of $504 million. For the second quarter of 2014, the Company generated a net loss from continuing operations of $629 million, or $3.65 per basic share. Capital expenditures were $123 million for the quarter.
“Despite the actions we’ve taken to improve our operational performance, we have fallen short in our efforts, leaving the Company with a liquidity position that is not sufficient to support the business,” said Steve Shindler, NII Holdings’ chief executive officer. “Our subscriber base in Brazil continued to grow during the second quarter overcoming a market slowdown during the World Cup and higher iDEN churn. While our subscriber losses in Mexico were lower than last quarter, we are still short of where we need to be in that market. We will continue to take actions to improve our results in Mexico including the optimization of our distribution channels and the staging of our 3G services to more effectively attract new customers. We are excited that Salvador Alvarez has joined our team as President of Nextel Mexico as we work to return to subscriber growth. However, with our current liquidity position and the cash demands on our business, these ongoing initiatives will not be sufficient to allow the Company to continue to operate unless we are able to restructure our debt obligations, find a strategic solution or some combination of those approaches. As a result, we will need to make some key decisions in the short term to address our liquidity situation in an effort to secure the best possible path forward for our stakeholders.”
NII Holdings' consolidated average monthly service revenue per subscriber (ARPU) was $28 for the second quarter of 2014, down from $36 in the same quarter last year. The Company also reported consolidated average monthly churn of 3.39 percent for the period, compared to 2.67 percent in the second quarter of 2013. Consolidated cost per gross add (CPGA) was $296 for the second quarter of 2014, a $20 increase from the year ago period.
The Company ended the second quarter with $5.8 billion in total debt and $1.0 billion in consolidated cash, restricted cash, and investments, resulting in $4.8 billion of net debt.
“While we have seen progress on some operational metrics, our financial performance continues to reflect the impact of the deterioration in our revenue base,” said Juan Figuereo, NII Holdings’ executive vice president and chief financial
officer. “We have put plans in place to stabilize our revenues and improve our profitability, and we are taking more aggressive actions to reduce our costs and balance our investments in growth against the increasing pressure on our liquidity. We also continue to work with our advisors to identify and evaluate potential strategic transactions and have engaged in a series of productive discussions with holders of various series of our senior notes regarding a potential consensual restructuring of our balance sheet.”
As a result of the Company’s financial performance in combination with the potential impact of its inability to satisfy certain financial covenants under our existing debt obligations, the Company will likely find it necessary to file a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in order to implement a restructuring of its obligations on a stand-alone basis or in conjunction with one or more potential strategic transactions as disclosed in greater detail in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the second quarter that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In addition, due to the Company’s ongoing review of its strategic and restructuring options, the Company will not host a financial results conference call this quarter. Additional operational and financial details are available in the Form 10-Q and in the earnings presentation available under the Investor Relations link at www.nii.com.
In addition to the preliminary results prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) provided throughout this press release, NII Holdings has presented consolidated adjusted OIBDA, ARPU, CPGA and Net Debt. These measures are non-GAAP financial measures and should be considered in addition to, but not as substitutes for, the information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations from GAAP results to these non-GAAP financial measures are provided in the notes to the attached financial table.

Consolidated OIBDA and Consolidated Adjusted OIBDA
Consolidated operating income before depreciation and amortization, or OIBDA, represents operating income before depreciation and amortization expense. Consolidated adjusted operating income before depreciation and amortization, or adjusted OIBDA, represents consolidated operating income before depreciation expense, amortization expense, material non-cash asset impairments, severance costs associated with publicly announced restructuring plans and other material non-recurring or unusual charges. Consolidated OIBDA and consolidated adjusted OIBDA are not measurements under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, may not be similar to consolidated OIBDA and consolidated adjusted OIBDA measures of other companies and should be considered in addition to, but not as substitutes for, the information contained in our statements of operations. We believe that consolidated OIBDA and consolidated adjusted OIBDA provide useful information to investors because they are indicators of our operating performance, especially in a capital intensive industry such as ours, since they exclude items that are not directly attributable to ongoing business operations. Consolidated OIBDA and consolidated adjusted OIBDA can be reconciled to our consolidated statements of operations as follows (in millions):

Average Monthly Revenue Per Handset/Unit in Service (ARPU)
Average monthly revenue per subscriber unit in service, or ARPU, is an industry term that measures service revenues, which we refer to as subscriber revenues, per period from our customers divided by the weighted average number of subscriber units in commercial service during that period. ARPU is not a measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, may not be similar to ARPU measures of other companies and should be considered in addition, but not as a substitute for, the information contained in our statements of operations. We believe that ARPU provides useful information concerning the appeal of our rate plans and service offerings and our performance in attracting and retaining high value customers. Other revenue includes revenues for such services as roaming, handset maintenance, cancellation fees, analog and other. ARPU can be calculated and reconciled to our consolidated statement of operations as follows (in millions, except ARPU):

Cost per Gross Add (CPGA)
Cost per gross add, or CPGA, is an industry term that is calculated by dividing our selling, marketing and handset and accessory subsidy costs, excluding costs unrelated to initial customer acquisition, by our new subscribers during the period, or gross adds. CPGA is not a measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, may not be similar to CPGA measures of other companies and should be considered in addition, but not as a substitute for, the information contained in our statements of operations. We believe CPGA is a measure of the relative cost of customer acquisition. CPGA can be calculated and reconciled to our consolidated statements of operations as follows (in millions, except CPGA):

Net Debt
Net debt represents total debt less cash, cash equivalents, short-term and long-term investments and restricted cash. Net debt is not a measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, may not be similar to net debt measures of other companies and should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information contained in our balance sheets. We believe that net debt provides useful information concerning our liquidity and leverage. Net debt as of June 30, 2014 can be calculated as follows (in millions):

Impact of Foreign Currency Fluctuations
The following table shows the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on certain financial measures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the same period in 2014 by (i) adjusting the relevant measures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 to levels that would have resulted if the average foreign currency exchange rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 were the same as the average foreign currency exchange rates that were in effect for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014; and (ii) comparing the actual and adjusted financial measures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 to the similar financial measures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 to show the percentage change in those measures before and after taking those adjustments into account. The amounts reflected in the following table for operating income before depreciation and amortization on a consolidated basis and segment earnings for Nextel Brazil, Nextel Mexico and Nextel Argentina, before the adjustments for changes in foreign currency exchange rates, are based on the calculations contained elsewhere in these non-GAAP reconciliations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. The average foreign currency exchange rates for each of the relevant currencies during each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 are included in the notes to the table below. The information reflected in the following table is not a measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information contained in our statements of operations. We believe that these calculations provide useful information concerning our relative performance for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same periods in 2013 by removing the impact of the significant difference in the average foreign currency exchange rates in effect for those periods.

(1) | The "2Q 2013 Normalized" and "YTD 2013 Normalized" amounts reflect the impact of applying the average foreign currency exchange rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 to the operating revenues earned in foreign currencies and to the other components of each of the actual financial measures shown above for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, other than certain components of those measures consisting of U.S. dollar-based operating expenses, which were not adjusted. The amounts included under the columns "2Q 2013 Adjustment" and "YTD 2013 Adjustment" reflect the amount determined by subtracting the "2Q 2013 Normalized" and "YTD 2013 Normalized" amounts calculated as described in the preceding sentence from the "2Q 2013 Actual" and "YTD 2013 Actual" amounts and reflect the impact of the year-over-year change in the average foreign currency exchange rates on each of the financial measures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. The average foreign currency exchange rates for each of the relevant currencies during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 for purposes of these calculations were as follows: |
Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | ||||||
