As a result of the tender offer, TELMEX acquired 90.3% of the preferred shares (including 79% of the preferred shares represented by ADSs) and 26.5% of the common shares of Embratel Holdings. Through its subsidiaries, at year-end 2006 TELMEX owned 95.9% of all preferred shares, 98.0% of all common shares and 97.0% of all common and preferred shares, taken as a whole, of Embratel Holdings. As of February 12, 2007, as a result of purchases during the initial offering period and subsequent purchases, TELMEX increased its ownership in Embratel Holdings to approximately 96.8% of the preferred shares, 98.0% of the common shares and 97.4% of the total number of common and preferred shares, taken as a whole.

Acquisition of TV Cable and Cable Pacífico in Colombia

On December 4, 2006, TELMEX announced agreements with the controlling partners of TV Cable and the controlling partners of Cable Pacífico for TELMEX to acquire 100% of TV Cable S.A. and TV Cable Comunicaciones S.A. E.S.P. ("TV Cable") and 97.5% of TV Cable del Pacífico S.A. E.S.P. ("Cable Pacífico").

TV Cable offers cable TV, Internet and voice over IP services and has been in operation for 20 years. The company operates in Bogota and Cali. Cable Pacífico operates in nine states, and its main operation is in Medellin. Both transactions are subject to regulatory approvals and other conditions established in the agreements.

Acquisition of Boga

Further applying the regional growth strategy while staying within our strategic range of products and services, TELMEX is in the process of acquiring Boga, a cable TV company in Peru. This company mainly operates in the cities of Lima and Chiclayo.

Amendments to TELMEX's Bylaws

 

On December 5, 2006, TELMEX announced that at its Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting, held in accordance with requirements established in the current Mexican Securities Law, shareholders approved amendments to its bylaws that adjust the integration, organization and operation of its corporate bodies. The amended bylaws are available in www.telmex.com in the Investor Relations section.

 

Consolidated Income Statements

 

Revenues: In the fourth quarter, consolidated revenues increased 1.7%, mainly due to the increases in domestic long distance, Internet and corporate networks revenues of 8.2%, 8.9% and 10.9%, respectively, as well as the 17.6% increase in other revenues, comprised primarily of Yellow Pages and Tiendas TELMEX (TELMEX stores). In contrast, local service revenues and international long distance revenues decreased 7.9% and 5.7%, respectively. For the twelve months, revenues totaled 175 billion pesos, an increase of 0.9% compared with 2005.

 

Costs and expenses: Costs and expenses increased 9.4%, mainly due to the increase in interconnection charges in Mexico from the introduction of domestic and international calling party pays but also reflecting the fourth-quarter 2005 agreement with a data operator that decreased uncollectables by 201 million pesos as well as the recognition of 222 million reais of income tax contingencies related to incoming international long distance traffic and for additional payments related to ICMS (Imposto Sobre Circulação de Mercadoria e Prestação de Serviços) tax at Embratel. For the full year, costs and expenses totaled 126.7 billion pesos, 4.2% higher than in 2005.

 

EBITDA (1) and operating income: EBITDA (1) totaled 17.7 billion pesos in the fourth quarter, a decrease of 11.5% compared with the same period of 2005. The EBITDA margin was 39.5%. Operating income totaled 11.6 billion pesos, 15.3% lower than the fourth quarter of 2005. For the twelve months, EBITDA (1) totaled 72.9 billion pesos and operating income totaled 48.3 billion pesos.

 

Comprehensive financing cost: Comprehensive financing cost generated a credit of 224 million pesos in the quarter, this resulted from: i) a net interest charge of 667 million pesos due to a non-recurring gain of 603 million reais due to a favorable resolution from Brazil's Supreme Court regarding Embratel's income tax, offset by a recognized provision related to income tax from incoming international long distance traffic of 306 million reais, and a recognition of an impairment in Chile of 27 million dollars, ii) a net exchange loss of 145 million pesos from the fourth-quarter's exchange rate appreciation of 0.1747 pesos per dollar, partially offset by the 6.5 billion dollars in dollar-peso hedges (weighted average exchange rate: 11.08 pesos per dollar) and the 272 million dollars in dollar-reais hedges (weighted average exchange rate: 2.4944 reais per dollar), and iii) a gain in the monetary position of 1 billion pesos.

 

Majority net income: Majority net income in the fourth quarter totaled 7.401 billion pesos, 13.8% lower than the same period of the previous year. Earnings per share were 37 Mexican cents, and earnings per ADR were 67 US cents. For the twelve months, majority net income totaled 28.534 billion pesos, a decrease of 4.9% compared with the same period of last year.

 

Free cash flow: At December 31, resources provided by operating activities totaled 55.785 billion pesos, of which 23.789 billion pesos were used in share repurchases, 8.948 billion pesos in dividend payments and the rest in several investments.

 

Investments: In 2006, consolidated capital expenditures (capex) was the equivalent of 2.009 billion dollars, of which 78.4% was used for growth projects in the voice, data and transport infrastructure, 18.1% for operational support projects and operating needs, and 3.5% for social telephony.

 

Debt: Gross total debt at December 31 was the equivalent of 9.263 billion dollars, an increase of 771 million dollars from a year ago. Consolidated net debt (3) increased in the year to the equivalent of approximately 1.199 billion dollars, totaling 7.519 billion dollars.

(3) Net debt is defined as short-term liabilities plus long-term debt, less cash and equivalents.

 

Repurchase of shares: For the twelve months, the company used 23.789 billion pesos to repurchase its own shares. During the quarter 1.976 billion pesos were used to repurchase 134 million 489 thousand shares.

 

 

Mexico Operating Results

Lines in service

The capacity to generate economic resources has allowed TELMEX to grow in Mexico and expand internationally. The commitment of the Company is reflected in our investment levels, customer service and ongoing pursuit of operating efficiency improvement. In the last 16 years, TELMEX has applied technological modernization to increase domestic coverage and further penetrate the market with better telecommunications services. In this period, we have invested the equivalent of 27.692 billion dollars in telecommunications infrastructure in Mexico. This investment generates a multiplying effect in the Mexican economy as it provides telecommunications services to 22 thousand 801 communities that comprise 90.6% of the population.

In Mexico, there are hundreds of concessionaires and/or licenses to provide telecommunications services, and in the case of local service, as it publicly known, the applied mechanism results in not charging interconnection fees. In the fixed line business, we compete with operators that are mainly focused on high-income segments A and B. In these segments our market share is approximately 66%. At the same time, we have made a commitment to provide telecommunications services nationwide. As a result, we are the only fixed line operator in the country with a presence in socio-economic segments C-, D and E. At December 31, 2006, TELMEX had 18 million 251 thousand lines in service with a market share of 24% in Mexico, where there are more than 76 million fixed and mobile customers.

At TELMEX, we continue enhancing our service offerings and modernizing the telecommunications platform. Our efforts extend to rural areas. The initiatives optimize the required investment and reduce operating expenses. This allows us to offer voice, data and Internet services to more than 21 thousand 341 communities, benefiting more than 21 million inhabitants.

Another positive step for consumers in 2006 was the further reduction in the number of local calling areas. In Mexico the number of calling areas is now 397, below the total of 2 thousand 200 that existed in 1998. The average size of each local area now is 4 thousand 948 Km2, with more than 260 thousand inhabitants. That compares with the United States of America, where there are 25 thousand local calling areas that average 375 Km2 and fewer than 12 thousand inhabitants.

Based on the strategy to assure line profitability, in the quarter, TELMEX disconnected 377 thousand prepaid lines, bringing the total to 864 thousand prepaid disconnections for the full year that had payment problems or were not producing revenues. The application of this strategy along with the disconnection of lines that pay rent resulted in a reduction of 351 thousand in the quarter and 124 thousand for the full year. At December 31, 2006, there were 18 million 251 thousand lines in service.

Local traffic

During the fourth quarter, local traffic decreased 2.2% compared with the same period in 2005, with a total of 6.491 billion local calls. Local traffic volume has been affected by competition from local and wireless telephony and by the migration of our switched traffic to corporate networks, a trend that strengthens the data business although it adversely affects local traffic. For the twelve months, total local traffic was 26.575 billion calls, 0.4% lower than the same period of the previous year.

 

On the other hand, the measured service packages "Línea Más Negocio," launched in February 2005, reached 536 thousand services and "Línea Hogar," launched a year later, totaled 361 thousand services at year-end. These packages have allowed evolving the mix of revenues from single voice and data services to multi-service packages with monthly fixed revenues.

Long distance traffic

Domestic long distance (DLD) decreased 1.2% compared with the fourth quarter of 2005, totaling 4.424 billion minutes. A significant factor was the introduction of domestic calling party pays, which reached 136.9 million minutes in the quarter. If this effect were eliminated, domestic long distance would have increased 1.9%.

 

In the quarter, outgoing and incoming international long distance (ILD) traffic maintained its growth trend due to the introduction of packages. Increases of 1.5% and 15.8% compared with the same period a year earlier brought total minutes to 455 million and 1.809 billion, respectively. The incoming-outgoing ratio was 4. For the full year, international outgoing traffic totaled 1.876 billion minutes and incoming international traffic totaled 7.037 billion minutes, for increases of 4.8% and 31.8%, respectively.

 

Domestic and international long distance packages totaled 1.6 million customers at year-end, 32.4% more than in 2005.

Interconnection

In the fourth quarter, interconnection traffic increased 17.4%, totaling 10.339 billion minutes. Calling party pays traffic increased 19.9% due to the introduction of domestic and international calling party pays in November 2006. If we eliminate this effect, calling party pays traffic would have increased 6.9%. Traffic from local and international operators increased 12.9%. Traffic generated by cellular companies that is terminated in TELMEX's network increased 32.5%. For the full year, interconnection traffic totaled 39 billion minutes, an increase of 12.1%.

Internet and Corporate networks

In Mexico during the fourth quarter, we added 231 thousand broadband Prodigy Infinitum (ADSL) customers, bringing the total at year-end to 1.8 million services, an increase of 76.5% compared with 2005. The growth of Internet services has been supported by the sale of PC's that has made TELMEX the number one retailer of PC's in Mexico for two consecutive quarters. During 2006, we doubled the speed for Infinitum, integrated new multi-service packages with preferred rates and improved service levels by extending the capabilities of our world-class technological platform. These high-speed services now can be offered on 93.7% of TELMEX's network.

Billed line equivalents of 64 Kbps to corporate customers increased 15.9% compared with the previous year, reaching 2.3 million. In particular, penetration of these services has increased through the offer of VPNs (Virtual Private Networks), allowing our customers to optimize their operating costs and management of their data networks by having access to higher quality service levels.

Mexico Financial Results

 

Revenues: Revenues in the fourth quarter totaled 33.1 billion pesos, a level similar to that in the same period of the previous year, due the increases of 12.7% in revenues of Internet access, 11% in interconnection revenues because of the introduction of domestic and international calling party pays, and 25.1% in other revenues, mainly comprised by Yellow Pages and Tiendas TELMEX (TELMEX Stores), partially offset by the rate reduction in real terms of local and long distance, as well as the introduction of packages that decreased the revenue per unit but increased traffic. For the twelve months, total revenues were 128.3 billion pesos, 1.1% lower than the same period of 2005.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Costs and expenses: In the fourth quarter, total costs and expenses were 21 billion pesos, an increase of 1.4%. This increase was due to higher interconnection costs (domestic and international calling party pays). If this effect were eliminated, costs and expenses would have decreased 1.5% as a result of cost control initiatives, as well as lower depreciation and amortization charges. For the twelve months, total costs and expenses were 80.5 billion pesos, 2.2% lower than the same period of 2005.

 

 

 

 

 

EBITDA (1) and operating income: EBITDA (1) totaled 16.7 billion pesos in the fourth quarter, a decrease of 3.3% compared with the same period of last year. The EBITDA margin was 50.4%, a decrease of 1.6 percentage points compared with the fourth quarter of 2005. Operating income totaled 12.3 billion pesos, 3% lower than the fourth quarter of 2005, and the operating margin was 37.1%. For the twelve months, EBITDA (1) totaled 65.8 billion pesos with a margin of 51.3%, and operating income totaled 47.8 billion pesos with a margin of 37.2%.

Investments: In Mexico, total capital expenditures (capex) were 1.166 billion dollars, of which 74.9% was used for growth and modernization projects for the voice, data and transport infrastructure, 19.3% for operational support projects and operating needs, and 5.8% for social telephony.

Debt: At December 31, total debt was the equivalent of 8.013 billion dollars, an increase of 213 million dollars compared with last year. Net debt (3) in Mexico increased the equivalent of 697 million dollars to a total of 6.603 billion dollars.

(3) Net debt is defined as short-term liabilities plus long-term debt less cash and equivalents.

 

Latin America Financial Results

Brazil

In Brazil, efforts have been focused on consolidating Embratel's position in the data business for the commercial segment and increase local service offerings for the residential segment, resulted in an increase of 34.5% of billed line equivalents and an increase in local customers of 31.6% compared with the fourth quarter of 2005. At December 31, the company provided Net Fone services through Net's infrastructure to 181.9 thousand customers. Local and domestic long distance traffic showed increases of 27.1% and 20.2% in the quarter, respectively, compared with the same period of 2005. For the full year, local traffic and domestic long distance traffic increased 39.4% and 16.2%, respectively.

 

In the fourth quarter, revenues from the operations in Brazil totaled 2.082 billion reais, 6.9% higher than the same quarter of the previous year. Higher revenues were mainly due to the 10.4% increase in the data business, to the 19.2% increase in local services, and the 5.5% increase in domestic long distance. For the twelve months, revenues totaled 8.220 billion reais, 6.9 % higher than last year.

 

During the quarter, Embratel recognized income tax contingencies related to incoming international long distance for 222 million reais, as well as an additional charge regarding ICMS tax (Imposto Sobre Circulação de Mercadoria e Prestação de Serviços), that reduced the impact of the fiscal contingency related to this tax that the company had for many years. The amount of the non-recurring charge related to the ICMS tax was approximately 632 million reais for the full year. This effect, along with higher costs related to an increase in sales and charges related to the Telecommunications Service Universal Fund (FUST), generated costs and expenses in the quarter of 2.210 billion reais, an increase of 17.7% compared with the fourth quarter of the previous year.

 

EBITDA (1) totaled 154 million reais in the fourth quarter and 1.155 billion reais for the twelve months. Operating income had losses of 62 million reais in the quarter and for the full year, operating income totaled 57 million reais. If the non-recurring effects were eliminated, EBITDA (1) and operating income would have been 468 million reais and 252 million reais, respectively in the quarter.

Argentina

 

In the quarter, revenues from the operations in Argentina totaled 91.6 million Argentinean pesos, an increase of 8.5% compared with the same period of the previous year due to increases in revenues of 19.4% in the corporate and Internet businesses, 5.3% in long distance and 25% in the local services, offset by the decrease in interconnection revenues with other operators. Operating costs and expenses totaled 99.7 million Argentinean pesos in the quarter, an increase of 9.8% due to the increase in network maintenance costs and advertising expenses to expand the customer base. In the quarter, EBITDA (1) totaled 7 million Argentinean pesos with a margin of 7.7%. The operating loss was 8.1 million Argentinean pesos in the quarter.

Colombia

In Colombia, revenues totaled 54.511 billion Colombian pesos in the fourth quarter, 52.4% higher than the same period of 2005. Higher revenues were mainly due to the integration of sites of several corporate customers and the integration of Superview (a cable TV company) since November 2006 that contributed with 7.876 billion Colombian pesos. Costs and expenses increased 62.8%, totaling 43.186 billion Colombian pesos, mainly due to the incorporation of Superview that contributed with 8.245 billion Colombian pesos and to the 17.2% increase in transport and interconnection expenses for additional services. Operating income totaled 11.325 billion Colombian pesos compared with operating income of 9.239 billion Colombian pesos in the year-ago fourth quarter, an increase of 22.6%. The operating margin was 20.8%. EBITDA (1) totaled 20.570 billion Colombian pesos with a margin of 37.7%, compared with EBITDA (1) of 16.053 billion Colombian pesos in the same period of the previous year.

Chile

 

In the fourth quarter, revenues totaled 16.625 billion Chilean pesos, an increase of 0.5% compared with the same period of 2005. Revenues from the corporate networks and Internet and local service businesses increased 15% and 42.6%, respectively, compared with the same quarter of 2005. The Chilean long distance market continues to decrease due to the migration to mobile services and private networks, which caused a decline in long distance revenues of 5.7%, compared with the fourth quarter of the previous year.

 

Costs and expenses in the fourth quarter totaled 18.277 billion Chilean pesos, an increase of 13.3% compared with the same period of 2005. Costs of sales and services increased 27.8% due to the increase in network maintenance costs related to growth in local services and to the 6.1% increase in transport and interconnection costs. In the quarter, there was an operating loss of 1.652 billion Chilean pesos compared with operating income of 413 million Chilean pesos in the same period of the previous year. EBITDA (1) in the quarter totaled 1.817 billion Chilean pesos with a margin of 10.9%.

Peru

 

From October to December, total revenues were 55.3 million New Soles, an increase of 7.4% compared with the same period of 2005. The data business, which represents 34.3% of revenues, increased 22.6%. Voice business revenues were flat compared with the previous year since the 27.9% increase in lines in service offset the decrease in interconnection revenues with other operators. In the quarter, costs and expenses grew 8.8% due to the increase of 7.9% in transport and interconnection costs compared with 2005. Operating income in the quarter totaled 0.9 million New Soles compared with 1.5 million New Soles in the same period of 2005. EBITDA (1) in the fourth quarter totaled 13 million New Soles with a margin of 23.5% compared with EBITDA (1) of 13.9 million New Soles in the same period of 2005.

(1) At December 31, 2006 TELMEX holds 98.0% of the controlling shares of this subsidiary (97.3% in 2005).

(2) Corresponds to the indirect shareholding percentage of TELMEX in Net; the direct and indirect interest of Embratel Participações S.A. in Net Serviços de Comunicação S.A. (Net) at December 31, 2006, is 39.9% (37.1% in 2005).

 

The amended Mexican government concession under which TELMEX operates in Mexico was reviewed on August 10, 1990. The concession runs through the year 2026, but it may be renewed for an additional period of fifteen years. The concession defines, among other things, the quality standards for telephone service and establishes the basis for regulating rates.

 

Under this concession, the Company's basic telephone service rates are subject to a ceiling determined by the Federal Telecommunications Commission (COFETEL). During the last six years, TELMEX management has decided not to raise the rates for basic services.

 

Empresa Brasileira de Telecomunicações S.A. (Embratel), TELMEX's most important foreign subsidiary, provides domestic and international long-distance services, data transmission and other services, and through its subsidiary Star One S.A. (Star One), it provides satellite services. Both companies operate under two separate concessions granted by the Brazilian federal government via the Brazilian Telecommunications Agency (ANATEL).

 

The concession for domestic and international long-distance services is in force through December 31, 2025 and the satellite concession is in force through December 31, 2020. Both concessions may be renewed upon expiration. The rest of the countries also operate under concessions and government licenses.

 

II. Significant Accounting Policies

 

The significant accounting policies and practices observed by the Company in the preparation of the financial statements, which are in conformity with Mexican Financial Reporting Standards (MFRS), which are comprised of the bulletins issued by the Mexican Institute of Public Accountants that have not yet been modified, replaced or abolished by the MFRS, as well as the MFRS issued by the Mexican Financial Information Standards Research and Development Board (Consejo Mexicano para la Investigacion y Desarrollo de Normas de Informacion Financiera, A.C. or "CINIF"), are described below:

(In thousands of Mexican pesos with purchasing power at December 31, 2006)

 

 

1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

On March 12, 2007, TELMEX's audit committee and management authorized the issuance of the accompanying financial statement and its corresponding notes at December 31, 2006 and 2005. These financial statements must also be approved by the Company's board of directors and stockholders at their next meetings.

 

a) Consolidation and basis of translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries

 

i) Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Telefonos de Mexico, S.A.B de C.V. and its subsidiaries. All the companies operate in the telecommunications sector or provide services to companies operating in this sector.

 

The results of operations of the subsidiaries and affiliates were included in the Company's financial statements as of the month following its acquisition.

 

All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. Minority interest refers primarily to certain foreign subsidiaries.

 

ii) Translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries

 

The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries and affiliates were translated into Mexican pesos, as follows:

 

The financial statements as reported by the foreign subsidiaries are adjusted to conform to MFRS, in their local currency, and are subsequently restated to local currency with purchasing power as of the balance sheet date, based on the inflation rate of the country in which the subsidiary operates.

 

All balance sheet amounts, except for stockholders' equity, are translated into Mexican pesos at the prevailing exchange rate at year-end; stockholders' equity accounts are translated at the prevailing exchange rate at the time capital contributions were made and earnings were generated. The restated amounts of the income statement are translated into Mexican pesos at the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the year being reported.

 

Exchange rate changes and the monetary position effect derived from intercompany monetary items are included in the consolidated income statements.

 

The difference resulting from the translation process is called "Effect of translation of foreign entities" and is included in stockholders' equity as part of the caption "Other comprehensive income items".

b) Recognition of revenues

 

Revenues are recognized when services are rendered. Revenues from the sale of prepaid telephone service cards are recognized based on an estimate of the usage of time covered by the prepaid card. Revenues from prepaid internet plans are recorded as service is provided. Revenues and expenses from the sale of advertising in the telephone directory are recorded at the time telephone directories are published. Revenues from the sale of equipment are recorded when the product is delivered.

 

Revenues from local service are comprised of new-line installation charges, monthly service fees, measured usage charges based on the number of calls made, and other service charges to subscribers. Local service revenues also include measured usage charges based on the number of minutes in the case of prepaid plans.

 

Revenues from domestic and international long-distance telephone services are determined on the basis of the duration of the calls and the type of service used. All these services are billed monthly, based on the rates authorized by the relevant regulatory bodies of each country. Revenues for international long-distance service also include the revenues earned under agreements with foreign telephone service providers or operators for the use of facilities in interconnecting international calls. These agreements specify the rates for the use of such international interconnecting facilities.

 

c) Recognition of the effects of inflation on financial information

 

The effects of inflation on financial information are recognized in the financial statements, consequently, the amounts shown in the accompanying financial statements and in these notes are expressed in thousands of Mexican pesos with purchasing power at December 31, 2006. The weighted restatement factor applied to the financial statements at December 31, 2005 as originally issued was 1.0648, which was determined based on revenues, as well as on the average weighted inflation rate and on the changes in the exchange rate for each of the countries in which the Company operates.

 

Plant, property and equipment and construction in progress were restated as described in Note 4. Telephone plant and equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the related assets (see Note 4c).

 

Inventories for the operation of the telephone plant are valued using the average cost method and are restated on the basis of specific indexes. The restated value of inventories is similar to its replacement cost, not in excess of its market value.

 

Other non-monetary assets are restated using the inflation adjustment factors for each country.

 

Capital stock, premium on sale of shares and retained earnings were restated using adjustment factors obtained from the Mexican National Consumer Price Index (NCPI) published by Banco de Mexico (Mexico's central bank).

(In thousands of Mexican pesos with purchasing power at December 31, 2006)

 

 

 

1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

The deficit from restatement of stockholders' equity consists of the accumulated monetary position loss at the time the provisions of Bulletin B-10 were first applied, which was Ps. 14,613,114, and of the result from holding non-monetary assets, which represents the difference between the restatement by the specific indexation method and restatement based on the NCPI. This item is included in stockholders' equity as part of the caption "Other comprehensive income items".

 

The net monetary position gain included in the statements of income as part of the caption "Comprehensive financing cost", represents the effect of inflation on monetary assets and liabilities.

 

The statement of changes in financial position is prepared based on the financial statements expressed in constant Mexican pesos. The sources and applications of resources represent the change in constant Mexican pesos in the different balance sheet items that affect cash balances. Monetary and foreign exchange gains and losses are not treated as non-cash items in the determination of resources provided by operations.

 

d) Cash equivalents, marketable securities and instruments available for sale

 

Cash equivalents are represented basically by time deposits in financial institutions with maturities of less than 90 days.

 

Marketable securities are represented by equity securities held for trading; instruments available for sale were represented by equity securities (see Note 2). Both are stated at market value. Changes in the market value of instruments classified astrading are recognized in results of operations. Changes in the market value of instruments classified as available for sale are included in stockholders' equity until they are sold.

f) Allowance for doubtful accounts

 

The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined based on the Company's experience, the age of balances and economic trends, as well as on the assessment of accounts receivable in litigation. The allowance for doubtful accounts covers basically balances of accounts receivable over 90 days old.

 

f) Equity investment in affiliates

 

The equity investment in affiliates is valued using the equity method. This accounting method consists basically of recognizing our equity interest in the results of operations and in the stockholders' equity of investees at the time such results are determined (see Note 6).

g) Business acquisitions and goodwill

 

Business acquisitions are recorded using the purchase method. The acquisition of minority interest is considered a transaction between entities under common control and any difference between the purchase price and the carrying value of net assets acquired is recognized as an equity transaction.

 

Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price and the fair value of the net assets acquired at purchase date. Goodwill is not amortized, however it is subject to annual impairment tests, and is adjusted for any impairment losses.

 

In 2006, the Company recorded impairment of goodwill in the amount of Ps. 294,241, which was included in the caption "Comprehensive financing cost".

 

h) Licenses

 

TELMEX records licenses at acquisition cost and restates them based on the inflation rate of each country. Licenses are amortized in conformity with the terms of each license, over periods ranging from five to twenty-nine years.

 

i) Impairment of assets

 

When there are indications of impairment in the value of long-lived assets, the recoverable value of the related assets is estimated, which is defined as the higher of the asset's net selling price or its value in use, which is computed based on discounted cash flows. When the net carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable value, the difference is recognized as an impairment loss.

 

j) Exchange differences

 

Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the prevailing exchange rate at the time of the related transactions. Foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are translated at the prevailing exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Exchange rate differences are charged or credited directly to income of the year.

 

k) Labor obligations

 

Pension, seniority premium and medical assistance plan costs and termination payments are recognized periodically during the years of service of personnel, based on actuarial computations made by independent actuaries, using the projected unit-credit method (see Note 7).

 

l) Accruals

 

Accruals are recognized whenever (i) the Company has a current obligation (legal or assumed) as a result of a past event, (ii) it is probable that a cash disbursement will be required to settle such obligation and (iii) the obligation can be reasonably estimated.

1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

If the effect of the time value of money is material, accrued amounts are determined as the present value of the expected disbursements to settle the obligation. The discount rate applied is determined on a pre-tax basis and reflects market conditions at the balance sheet date and, where appropriate, the specific risk to the corresponding liability. In these cases, the increase in the accrual is recognized as a financing expense.

 

The Company recognizes contingent liabilities only when a cash disbursement is probable. Also, commitments are only recognized when they generate a loss.

 

m) Financial derivative instruments and hedging activities

 

To protect itself against risks from fluctuations in interest and exchange rates, the Company uses derivative financial instruments that have been designated and qualified as cash flow hedges (interest-rate swaps).

 

For cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the derivative's gains or losses is recognized in stockholders' equity in the caption "Other accumulated comprehensive income items", and the ineffective portion is recognized in income. The effectiveness of the derivative instruments is determined at the time they are designated as a hedge. The effectiveness of the hedging derivative is established at the inception of the hedge. Hedges are considered to be highly effective when in the initial assessment and during the hedging period, the changes in the fair value or cash flows of the hedged item are offset on a period-by-period or cumulative basis, as selected, and the hedge documentation establishes changes in the fair value or cash flows of the derivative itself by a range between 80% and 125%.

 

n) Income tax and employee profit sharing

Deferred taxes are determined using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on all temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, applying the enacted income tax rate at the date of the financial statements, or the enacted income tax rate that will be in effect at the time the temporary differences giving rise to deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.

The Company evaluates periodically the possibility of recovering deferred tax assets and, if necessary, creates a valuation allowance for those assets that are more likely than not to be realized.

Employee profit sharing is recognized only on temporary items considered non-recurring with a known turnaround time.

o) Comprehensive income

 

In conformity with Mexican accounting Bulletin B-4, Comprehensive Income, comprehensive income consists of current year net income plus the effects of deferred taxes, the effects of translation of foreign entities, changes in minority interest, the result

from holding non-monetary assets, the changes in the fair value of financial instruments classified as available for sale and the changes in the fair value of the swaps applied directly to stockholders' equity.

p) Earnings per share

 

The Company determined earnings per share by dividing majority net income by the average weighted number of shares issued and outstanding during the year, with the exception of shares acquired by the Company, as specified in Mexican accounting Bulletin B-14, Earnings per Share.

 

q) Use of estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Mexican Financial Reporting Standards requires the use of estimates and assumptions in certain areas. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

r) Concentration of risk

 

The Company invests a portion of its excess cash in time deposits in financial institutions with strong credit ratings. TELMEX does not believe it has significant concentrations of credit risks in its accounts receivable, as it has a broad customer base that is geographically diverse.

 

s) Segment information

 

Segment information is prepared based on information used by the Company in its decision making processes based on the geographical areas in which TELMEX operates, in conformity with the requirements of Mexican accounting Bulletin B-5, Financial Information by Segment (see Note 16).

 

t) New accounting pronouncements

 

The most important matters from the new pronouncements that came into force in 2006 are as follows:

 

MFRS A-3, "User Needs and the Objective of Financial Statements", establishes, among other provisions, that the statement of changes in financial position will be substituted by a statement of cash flows whenever so required by the specific standards. At December 31, 2006, there are not yet any specific rules for the issuance of the statements of cash flows. Therefore, the statement of changes in financial position will continue being used, until such time as the specific standards have been issued.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2006 and 2005

(In thousands of Mexican pesos with purchasing power at December 31, 2006)

 

 

1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

MFRS A-5, "Basic Elements of Financial Statements", includes a new classification of revenues and expenses in the statement of income, as either ordinary or non-ordinary. Ordinary revenues and expenses derive from common transactions or events; in other words, they are those transactions carried out for the entity's own business purposes, either on a frequent or non-frequent basis. Non-ordinary revenues and expenses correspond to unusual transactions or events, both frequent or non-frequent. Also, this pronouncement excludes such items that, under the abolished Mexican accounting Bulletin A-7, "Comparability", issued by the Accounting Principles Board, were considered either as special or extraordinary. Therefore, these items must be considered as part of the ordinary or non-ordinary result, respectively.

 

This MFRS also requires entities to recognize in income "other comprehensive income items" at the time the net assets that gave rise to them are realized.

 

However, Mexican accounting Bulletin B-3, "Statements of Income", in force at December 31, 2006, issued by the Accounting Principles Board, has made no reference to such classification or provided the rules for transfering "other comprehensive income items". Consequently, statements of income are still presented, as required by Bulletin B-3 in force as of December 31, 2006, based on the conclusions of Interpretation MFRS 3, "Initial Application of the FRSs", issued in January 2006, which establishes that companies must temporarily observe the requirements of the specific MFRS that have yet to be modified, while their adaptation to the MFRS conceptual framework is underway.

 

The new MFRS B-3, "Statements of Income", issued by the CINIF, will take effect on January 1, 2007. Therefore, the requirement to classify revenues and expenses as either ordinary or non-ordinary will be effective on December 31, 2007, as required by the presentation rules provided under the standard.

 

MFRS A-7, "Preparation and Disclosure", requires that the date on which the issuance of the financial statements was approved, as well as the names of the entity officers or governing bodies that authorize their issuance, be disclosed in the financial statements.

 

MFRS B-1, "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections", establishes that changes in internal accounting policies and reclassifications and error corrections must be recognized retrospectively, so that both the basic financial statements for the most recent period presented and those presented for comparison with the current period statements are adjusted as if the new policy, classification or error correction had always been applied. This MFRS also requires that, in the event of reclassifications, the affected captions and the related amounts be disclosed as they were previously presented and after giving effect to each reclassification.

 

The adoption of these new rules had no effect on the Company's financial statements.

 

The following new pronouncements entered into force on January 1, 2007:

 

MFRS B-3, "Statement of Income", establishes the guidelines for classifying revenues, costs and expenses as either "ordinary or non-ordinary", modifies certain specific MFRS, redefines the primary sections of the statements of income to provide a new

classification of either "ordinary" or "income level" items, and eliminates the special and extraordinary item classifications from the statement of income, as well as the caption initial accumulated effect of changes in accounting principles, which is consistent with the MFRS B-1 mentioned above.

 

The Interpretation of MFRS 4, "Presentation of Employee Profit Sharing in the Statement of Income" establishes that employee profit sharing shall no longer be presented as a tax provision, but instead, such item sahll be included as an ordinary expense in the caption "Other income and expenses".

 

MFRS B-13, "Subsequent Events at the Date of the Financial Statements", modifies the former rules relative to subsequent events, by establishing that certain events, such as the restructuring of assets and liabilities and the relinquishing of creditors of their collection rights in the case of debt default, shall be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements and recognized in the period in which they took place. Accordingly, the financial statements may no longer be adjusted to reflect such subsequent events, as was permitted under Bulletin B-13.

 

MFRS C-13, "Related Parties", broadens the concept of related parties to mention joint ventures in which the reporting entity participates, immediate family members of key management personnel or directors, as well as funds derived from labor obligation plans. This standard obligates entities to disclose the relationship between the controlling company and its subsidiary, irrespective of whether transactions were carried out between them in the period or not. MFRS C-13 also establishes that the reporting entity may disclose that the considerations for transactions carried out with its related parties are at arm's length, provided that it can be demonstrated. Finally, MFRS C-13 also requires entities to disclose information on the compensation paid to the entity's key managerial personnel or relevant Company directors.

 

MFRS D-6, "Capitalization of the Comprehensive Financing Cost", establishes that entities must capitalize Comprehensive Financing Cost (CFC), which was previously optional. Capitalizable CFC is defined as the amount attributable to qualifying assets that could have been avoided if such acquisition had not taken place. Qualifying assets are defined as those assets acquired by an entity requiring a prolonged acquisition period in order to use, sell or lease them. MFRS D-6 establishes the conditions necessary for the capitalization of CFC and the method under which the capitalizable amount must be determined, and also provides guidelines for determining when such capitalization must be suspended.

 

u) Reclassifications

Certain captions shown in the 2005 financial statements as originally issued have been reclassified for uniformity of presentation with the 2006 financial statements. In 2005, minority interest in Mexican subsidiaries was reclassified since, due to its materiality, this item had been presented in the caption "Other comprehensive loss items" under majority stockholders' equity.

6. Equity Investments (continued)

 

Grupo Telvista

 

TELMEX holds a 45% equity interest in Grupo Telvista, S.A. de C.V., a company which through its subsidiaries provides telemarketing services in Mexico and the U.S.A.

 

Net Serviços de Comunicação S.A.

 

During 2006, Embratel Participações S.A. (Embrapar) increased its equity interest in Net Serviços de Comunicação S.A. (Net) by 2.8% through four successive transactions: in May for Ps. 1,264,229 (USD 108.0 million), in June for Ps. 339,107 (USD 30.8 million), in November for Ps. 151,474 (USD 13.7 million) and in December for Ps. 1,002 (USD .09 million). After such increases, Embrapar's equity interest in Net is 39.9% and TELMEX's effective indirect equity interest in Net is 38.6%

 

At an extraordinary stockholders' meeting held on October 31, 2006, it was decided to increase Net's capital stock by Ps. 2,740,172 (R$537,023). Consequently, in November and December 2006, Embrapar and Embratel made capital contributions to Net, which correspond to the contributions made in November and December 2006 described in the preceding paragraph. As a result of this capital increase, and since new stockholders took part in such capital increase, Embrapar's and Embratel's equity interest in Net was diluted from 43.0 % to 39.9%, which gave rise to a credit to TELMEX's stockholders' equity of
Ps. 853,081. This capital increase was made in order to allow Net to acquire a 36.7% equity interest in Vivax S.A., a cable television operator and one of Brazil's main broadband Internet service providers.

 

In 2005 and in accordance with the agreements entered into by and between TELMEX and Globo Comunicações e Participações S.A., Distel Holding S.A. and Roma Participações Ltda. (together, "Globo"), TELMEX acquired an equity interest in Net, which is the largest cable television operator in Brazil. The total acquisition cost of these transactions amounted to Ps. 4,027,382 (USD 326.3 million).

Embrapar

 

On May 8, 2006, TELMEX, through its subsidiary Telmex Solutions Telecomunicações Ltda., announced a public offering to acquire in cash all of Embrapar's ordinary and preferred shares issued and outstanding.

The offer included the holders of preferred shares in the form of American Depositary Shares (ADSs), and initiated on October 3, 2006 through the publishing of an offering notice in both Brazil and the United States.

At December 31, 2006 and 2005, the market value of the trust fund for pensions and seniority premiums exceeded the current benefit obligation by Ps. 11,810,402 and
Ps. 13,180,683, respectively. In conformity with Mexican accounting Bulletin D-3, Labor Obligations, the balance sheets shows a prepaid pension cost of Ps. 19,171,780 and Ps. 23,933,925 in 2006 and 2005, respectively.

In 2006, the net actuarial gain of Ps. 1,775,603 is the result of a favorable actuarial difference of Ps. 17,188,949, due to the behavior of the plan assets invested in shares of companies listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange, and of an actuarial loss of
Ps. 15,413,346, mostly attributable to the revision made in July 2006 of the demographical actuarial hypotheses used in the computation of pensions. The changes in these hypotheses were based on the experience of the Company and of the general trends in Mexico during the last few years, as well as on future expectations. The change in hypotheses represented an increase of Ps. 667,859 in the 2006 net periodic cost, with respect to the cost that would have resulted had the Company continued to apply the actuarial hypotheses used in prior years. In addition, the actuarial loss is also due in part to the change in the estimated retirement age and the Company's experience with retired personnel.

 

In 2005, the net actuarial gain of Ps. 5,974,937 was derived primarily from an actuarial gain of Ps. 9,871,884, due to the favorable effect of plan assets represented by shares of companies listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange and to the increases in interest rates in our fixed-yield investments, which was partially offset by an actuarial loss of
Ps. 3,896,947, derived from changes in the experience with retired personnel and differences between the inflation rate and the increase in projected salaries.

Pension benefits are determined on the basis of compensations to employees in their final year of employment, their seniority, and their age at the time of retirement. The Company has established funds through Fundacion Embratel de Seguridad Social - Telos, an independent entity that manages the fund.

 

The unrecognized net obligation at the date of initial application related to the DPB is being amortized over a period of 20 years, which is the estimated remaining working lifetime of the Company's employees. Unrecognized gains/losses are being amortized over a period of 19 years, which is the expected remaining lifetime of the Company's retired personnel.

In 2006, the net actuarial gain of Ps. 182,901 in the DBP and the net actuarial loss of
Ps. 19,144 in the MAP, are due principally to actuarial losses on the defined-benefit obligation and medical assistance plan of Ps. 131,831 and Ps. 27,403, respectively, and the actuarial gain on plan assets of Ps. 314,732 and Ps. 8,259, respectively.

 

In 2005, the net actuarial gains of Ps. 52,442 in the DBP and Ps. 248,611 in the MAP are due principally to the actuarial gain on the defined-benefits obligations and medical assistance plan of Ps. 180,231 and Ps. 232,166, respectively, and the actuarial (loss) gain on plan assets of Ps.

Defined-contribution plan

 

The unfunded liability represents Embratel's obligation for those participants that migrated from DBP to the DCP. This liability is being amortized over a 20 year period starting on January 1, 1999. Any unpaid balance is adjusted monthly based on the return of the assets portfolio at that date, which is subject to increase based on the Brazilian general price index plus 6 percentage points per annum. At December 31, 2006, the balance of the DCP obligation amounted to Ps. 576,996 (Ps. 692,714 in 2005).

Accrued interest on the bonds was Ps. 70,215 for the year ended December 31, 2006 (Ps. 1,440,375 for the year ended December 31, 2005). During 2005, TELMEX repurchased a total
    Ps. 5,213,907 (USD 431.6 million) (book value) of these bonds. The repurchase price was higher than the book value by Ps. 190,510 (USD 15.6 million), amount that was recognized in Comprehensive financing cost. In January 2006, the Company paid Ps. 11,612,115 (USD 1,068.4 million) for the outstanding balance of the bonds.
  2. On November 19, 2003, a Ps. 13,007,964 (USD 1,000 million) bond was issued, maturing in 2008 and bearing a 4.5% annual interest rate, payable semiannually. Accrued interest on the bond for the year ended December 31, 2006 was Ps. 530,265 (Ps. 562,308 for the year ended December 31, 2005).
  3. On January 27, 2005, TELMEX issued bonds for a total of Ps. 16,123,614
    (USD 1,300 million), divided into two tranches of Ps. 8,061,807 (USD 650 million) each. The first tranch matures in 2010 and bears a 4.75% annual interest rate and the second tranch matures in 2015 bearing a 5.5% annual interest rate. Interests are payable semi-annually. On February 22, 2005, additional bonds were issued thereby increasing the initial bond issuances to Ps. 11,707,269 and Ps. 9,884,538, respectively (USD 950 million and USD 800 million, respectively). Accrued interest on the bonds that mature in 2010 amounted to Ps. 531,585 for the year ended December 31, 2006 (Ps. 507,257 for the year ended December 31, 2005); and to
    Ps. 518,329 for the year ended December 31, 2006 (Ps. 500,032 for the year ended December 31, 2005) on the bond that matures in 2015.
  4. On January 26, 2006, TELMEX issued abroad a Ps. 4,500 million bond, which matures in 2016 and bears an 8.75% annual interest rate. Accrued interest on the bond was Ps. 392,794 for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Syndicated loans:

 

On July 15, 2004, TELMEX entered into syndicated loan agreement for Ps. 31,535,816 (USD 2,425 million) divided in two tranches, the first tranch for Ps. 19,925,622
(USD 1,525 million) with a maturity of three years, and the second tranch for
Ps. 11,610,194 (USD 900 million) with a five-year maturity.

On October 20, 2005, TELMEX entered into an agreement to restructure the above-mentioned syndicated loan of Ps. 31,535,816 (USD 2,425 million), in order to improve the credit terms and modify the total loan amount to Ps. 29,201,161 (USD 2,500 million) divided in two tranches. The first tranch for Ps. 17,520,697 (USD 1,500 million) with a four-year maturity, and the second tranch for Ps. 11,680,464 (USD 1,000 million) with a six-year maturity. No penalties were assessed for the restructuring of the syndicated loan.

On August 11, 2006, this loan was restructured again, in order to improve the credit terms and increasing the total loan amount to Ps. 33,280,186 (USD 3,000 million) divided into three tranches. The first tranch for Ps. 14,421,414 (USD 1,300 million) and with a three-year maturity, the second tranch for Ps. 11,093,395 (USD 1,000 million) with a five-year maturity, and the third tranch for Ps. 7,765,377 (USD 700 million) with a seven-year maturity. The outstanding balance as of December 31, 2006 has been included in Bank debt (U.S. dollar denominated liabilities).

On June 30, 2006, TELMEX entered into a syndicated loan agreement for Ps. 5,769,616 (USD 500 million) divided into two tranches of Ps. 2,884,808 (USD 250 million) each, with a four-year and six-year maturity, respectively.

 

Domestic senior notes ("Certificados Bursatiles"):

 

At December 31, 2006, Ps. 7,450,000 domestic senior notes had been issued under the program authorized by the CNBV in 2001; the outstanding balance at such date is
Ps. 6,600,000. The term of this program ended in April, 2004 and TELMEX is only paying the outstanding balance of the transactions carried out.

 

On September 30, 2005, TELMEX obtained the approval from the NBSC for a new program to issue long-term domestic senior notes for up to Ps. 10,000,000 (nominal amount). At December 31, 2006, Ps. 500,000 of long-term domestic senior notes under this new program have been issued; the unused balance at such date is
Ps. 9,500,000.

Ps. 24,469,875 (USD 2,260 million). The Company recognized a charge of Ps. 76,450 to results of operations for these swaps corresponding to variances in their fair value.

Embratel uses hedging derivative instruments (foreign currency swaps and forwards) to to protect itself from the effects of exchange rate fluctuations on the Brazilian real due to foreign currency denominated loans. At December 31, 2006 and 2005, liabilities hedged amounted to Ps. 3,135,081 (USD 288.3 million) and Ps. 4,676,443 (USD 410.3 million), respectively. Embratel recognized a charge of Ps. 1,095,141 in 2006 (charge of
Ps. 729,163 in 2005) corresponding to variances in their fair value of these hedging derivative instruments.

 

To offset its exposure to financial risks related to the variable-yield debt, the Company (excluding Embratel) entered into interest-rate swaps. Under these contracts, the Company agreed to receive the 28-day "TIIE" interbank rate and the 182-day treasury certificate (CETES) rate and to pay fixed rates. The difference between the market interest rate and the rates contracted under the swaps was recorded in results of operations.

c) At December 31, 2006 there are outstanding letters of credit for Ps. 32,627 (Ps. 227,734 in 2005), issued to foreign suppliers for purchase of materials and supplies.

 

Contingencies Mexico

 

d) On December 4, 1997, the Federal Commission of Economic Competition (COFECO) issued a preliminary ruling declaring that Telefonos de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. exercises substantial power over what it referred to as five telecommunications markets. Telefonos de Mexico, S.A.B. de C.V. filed an appeal against such ruling and refuted the final ruling issued by the COFECO on February 19, 1998. After several judicial instances and rulings, the plenary meeting of the COFECO issued a ruling dated February 23, 2007, in which it revoked and ordered that the file be closed.

 

e) In December 1995, a competitor that provides cellular telephone services reported Telefonos de Mexico, S.A.B. de C.V. to the COFECO for alleged monopolistic practices and undue concentration.

In July 2001, the COFECO ruled that Telefonos de Mexico, S.A.B. de C.V. was responsible for monopolistic practices and undue concentration. Telefonos de Mexico, S.A.B. de C.V. filed an appeal for reconsideration against the ruling, but the appeal was declared unfounded and the ruling confirmed.

12. Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

 

The respective defense against the confirmation of the ruling has been filed with the Federal Court of Justice for Tax and Administrative Matters.

f) The Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS) audited Telefonos de Mexico, S.A.B. de C.V. for the 1997-2001 period. At the conclusion of the audit, it was determined that Telefonos de Mexico, S.A.B. de C.V. owed a total of approximately Ps. 330,000 (historical amount) in taxes, fines, surcharges and restatements at July 2, 2003. Telefonos de Mexico, S.A.B. de C.V. filed an appeal with the Federal Court of Justice for Tax and Administrative Matters, and in accordance with Mexican law, by means of a bank trust, the Company guaranteed payment of such tax liability through July 19, 2007. The Company's external lawyers who are handling this matter are of the opinion that although the Company's appeal is well founded, there is no guarantee that it will prevail.

 

Contingencies of Embratel, Star One and Vesper

 

Brazilian value-added goods and services tax (ICMS)

 

In August 2006, an agreement was published granting a proportional reduction of Embratel's debt plus restatement penalties and surcharges generated through July 2006 related to the so-called Brazilian ICMS tax, on communication services. The provisions of this agreement are applicable throughout all the states of Brazil, and the Federal District (Brasilia). The effective application of the benefits of this agreement will depend on the regulations of each state.

 

In those states in which Embratel has already implemented the benefits of this agreement, it has made payments of Ps. 2,352,360, thus laying to rest any disputes related to the matter. Regarding the states in which the benefits of this agreement have not yet been implemented, Embratel has created a reserve of
Ps. 2,002,287, as it considers that such states will most likely enter into the agreement related to the payment of debts.

 

Embratel received assessments by the tax authorities related to alleged undue ICMS tax credits of
Ps. 400,672 not addressed by the referred agreement that are considered by the external lawyers as probable losses. Claims in which the lawyers consider Embratel will prevail are
Ps. 424,397 which consequently, has not been provided for in the financial statements.

 

In July 2002, the subsidiary Star One received an assessment by the tax authorities in the State of Rio de Janeiro for payment of ICMS on internet and satellite use of Ps. 1,200,485. In March 2004, Star One was required to pay Ps. 100,479 in the Brazilian Federal District (Brasilia) for ICMS not paid on satellite use. Based on the lawyers' estimates, Embratel considers the probability of a loss in this contingency as possible and, consequently, has not provided for such amount in the financial statements.

12. Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

 

The subsidiaries Vesper S.A. and Telmex do Brasil Ltda. received assessments related to ICMS of
Ps. 119,586, which were provided for, since they are considered as probable losses. These subsidiaries received additional assessment of Ps. 91,054, which are considered as a possible loss and, consequently, have not been provided for in the financial statements.

 

Income tax on inbound international income

 

In March 1999, the Brazilian Federal Tax Agency (SRF) assessed the subsidiary Embratel in the amount of Ps. 1,461,127 for failing to pay income tax for years 1996 and 1997. Embratel filed an appeal against this assessment with Brazil's Special Federal Tax Court, which is still pending; however, the Company's external lawyers are of the opinion that there is a likelihood of loss and therefore, a provision of
Ps. 2,577,965 was provided for at December 31, 2006.

 

In June 1999, the subsidiary Embratel was further assessed for nonpayment of income tax on net foreign source income for 1998 amounting to Ps. 327,570. Embratel first filed an appeal with the administrative courts, and after receiving an unfavorable ruling, Embratel filed a lawsuit before judicial court, whose ruling in the first instance was unfavorable. However, after further review, the court nullified the ruling and issued a new ruling declaring the annulment of the contested ruling and declaring that there was no legal tax relationship between the parties in 1998.

 

Brazilian Social Welfare Tax on Service Exports (PIS)

 

In August 2001, Embratel received an assessment from the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service (SRF) totaling Ps. 808,801 for payment of the PIS prior to 1995 that had been offset in accordance with Brazilian tax law. Based on the known facts and on both management's and the lawyers' arguments and opinions, Embratel considers a loss from this contingency as possible and, consequently, has not provided for such amount in the financial statements.

 

Brazilian Social Welfare Tax for Service Export Security Tax (COFINS)

 

In August 2001, Embratel also received an assessment of Ps. 1,739,686 related to its exemption from payment of the COFINS on the exportation of telecommunication services during 1999. The government auditor made several errors in the computation of this tax and, consequently, such amount was later reduced to Ps. 1,203,537. Embratel appealed the case in Brazil's Federal Tax Court and ruling is still pending. Based on the known facts and on both management's and the lawyers' arguments and opinions, Embratel considers the probability of a loss in this contingency as possible and, consequently, has not provided for such amount in the financial statements.

 

In November 2006, Embratel received an assessment by the SRF of Ps. 82,956 for the payment of the COFINS in 1999, which is considered by the external lawyers as a probable loss.

Other tax contingencies

 

Embratel, Vesper, S.A., Telmex do Brasil Ltda. and Primesys Soluções Empresariais S.A. have other on-going tax litigations involving the National Institute of Social Security (INSS), Social Contribution on Net Income (CSLL), Telecom Development Fund (FUST) and Income Tax on Payments Abroad (IRRF), among others, which could give rise to tax contingencies, of which Ps. 1,753,486 is considered as a possible loss and consequently, has not been provided for in the financial statements.

 

Disputes with third parties

 

Certain cases on a number of different matters are in advanced stages of the litigation process and, according to Embratel's external lawyers, the subsidiary stands a chance of losing at least some of these suits; consequently, Ps. 607,166 has been reserved for possible unfavorable rulings. According to the Company's external lawyers, although the Company's arguments in these cases are well founded, there is no guarantee of a favorable outcome.

 

Other civil and labor contingencies

 

There are other on-going civil and labor litigations that could give rise to contingencies of which
Ps. 657,072 has been reserved to cover the portion considered as probable losses, and Ps. 1,292,703, which corresponds to the portion that represents a possible loss, has not been provided for in the financial statements. According to the Company's external lawyers, although the Company's arguments in these cases are well founded, there is no guarantee of a favorable outcome.

14. Stockholders' Equity (continued)

 

Voting rights

 

Each ordinary Series "AA" and "A" shares entitle the holder to one vote at general shareholders meetings. Each Series "L" shares entitle the holder to one vote at any shareholders meetings in which Series "L" holders are authorized to vote. According to the By Laws' Eighth Clause, Series "L" shares will have only the right to vote to designate two directors to the Board of Directors and their corresponding alternate directors, and on the following matters:

 

 

 

 

The resolutions adopted by the Extraordinary Shareholders Meetings related to any of the matters in which the Series "L" shares are entitled to vote will be also required to be approved by the majority vote of Series "AA" and Series "A" shares in order to be valid.

 

Under Mexican law, holders of any series of shares are also entitled to vote as one class on any proposal that could adversely affect the rights of the holders of that series. The shareholders of the Company (including Series "L") who individually or jointly represents 20% or more of the capital stock are entitled to legally oppose to the general shareholders meetings resolutions in which they have the right to vote. Determining whether a proposal requires the vote by the holders of Series "L" under such basis would initially be made by the Board of Directors or by any other party that calls a shareholders meeting to decide on the proposal. A negative decision would be subject to judicial challenge by any affected stockholder, and a court would ultimately determine the need for a class vote. There are no other procedures to determine whether a proposal requires a class vote, and Mexican law provides no additional guidance with respect to the criteria to be applied in making such determination.

 

c) In 1994, TELMEX initiated a program to purchase its own shares. A charge is made to retained earnings for the excess cost of the shares purchased over the theroetical nominal value of capital stock of the shares acquired.

 

At a regular stockholders' meeting held on October 9, 2006, the stockholders approved to increase in
Ps. 15,000,000 (historical), the total nominal amount authorized for the repurchase of the Company's own shares, bringing the total maximum amount to be used for this purpose to Ps. 15,931,293 (historical).

15. Income Tax, Asset Tax and Employee Profit Sharing

 

a) The Ministry of Finance and Public Credit authorized Telefonos de Mexico, S.A.B. de C.V. to consolidate its tax results effective January 1, 1995. The tax consolidation excludes the tax results of Instituto Tecnologico de Telefonos de Mexico, S.C. and of the Mexican subsidiaries acquired during the year.

 

On November 1, 2004, the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit authorized the transfer of the tax consolidation of Telefonos de Mexico, S.A.B. de C.V. to that of Carso Global Telecom (TELMEX's controlling company), starting in the 2005 fiscal year, in conformity with the Mexican Income Tax Law, which did not result in the tax deconsolidation of Telefonos de Mexico, S.A.B. de C.V. nor its subsidiaries, nor in their exclusion from the tax consolidation regime.

 

b) The asset tax is a minimum income tax, computed on the average value of most assets net of certain liabilities. Income tax can be credited against asset tax; therefore the latter is actually payable only to the extent that it exceeds income tax. Asset tax for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 was
Ps. 1,290,270 and Ps. 1,172,510, respectively, amounts that were paid by crediting the corporate income tax paid in such years.

All balance sheet amounts, except for stockholders' equity, were translated at the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the fiscal year; stockholders' equity accounts were translated at the prevailing exchange rate at the time capital contributions were made and earnings were generated. The statement of income amounts were translated at the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. The translation into Mexican pesos is carried out after the related balances or transactions have been restated based on the inflation rate of the country in which the subsidiary operates.

Exchange differences and the monetary position effect derived from intercompany monetary items were not eliminated from the consolidated statements of income.

Translation differences are included in the caption Effect of translation of foreign entities and are included in stockholders' equity as part of the caption Other comprehensive income items.
