Fusion Reports Second Quarter 2006 Results with Revised Cash Flow Disclosure

New York, NY, August 16, 2006 - Fusion (AMEX: FSN) today announced that subsequent to the issuance of the Company’s Second Quarter 2006 Earnings Press Release on Monday, August 14, 2006, but prior to the filing of its Form 10-Q, the Company revised its accounting treatment of a short-term equipment lease to reflect it as a non-cash item. The revised cash flow statement reflects cash used in operations of $6.2 million, the purchase of $2.1 million in property and equipment, and $0.5 million used for capital lease payments.
 
The revised cash flow statement was included in the Company’s Form 10-Q filed on August 14, 2006. This change had no impact on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Consolidated Statement of Operations, or the Reconciliation of Net Loss to Ajusted EBITDA.

Recent Highlights:

 
·
New Efonica VoIP Services launched
 
·
Over 400,000 Subscribers added in less than 60 days
 
·
Revenues increased for third consecutive quarter -
up 10.7% over first quarter 2006
 
·
Gross Margin increased from 9.6% in First Quarter 2006 to
11.0% in Second Quarter 2006
 

Below are the financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2006:

For the second quarter ended June 30, 2006, Fusion reported revenues of $10.5 million, an increase for the third consecutive quarter. The increase represented a 10.7% improvement compared to revenues of $9.5 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2006, attributable to an increase in Carrier services traffic. Compared to the second quarter of 2005, revenue was down 45.3%, primarily because the second quarter of 2005 included an extremely favorable vendor agreement, which resulted in an increase in revenue that did not recur.

 





Gross margin as a percent of revenue improved over the prior quarter and over the prior year, at 11.0% for the second quarter of 2006 compared to 9.6% for the first quarter of 2006, and 8.1% for the second quarter of 2005. The improvement was partially due to improved traffic routing and a larger decrease in cost per minute than in revenue per minute for Carrier services traffic. The margin was also favorably impacted by credits received for prior period network cost.

Fusion reported a net loss of ($2.8) million or ($0.10) per share during the quarter ended June 30, 2006 compared to a net loss of ($3.0) million or (0.11) during the quarter ended March 31, 2006 and a net loss of ($1.9) million or ($0.07) per share during the quarter ended June 30, 2005. The Company had a one-time gain on settlement of debt of $0.5 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2006.

For the second quarter ended June 30, 2006, Adjusted EBITDA was ($2.8) million compared to ($2.6) in the prior quarter, and ($1.6) million for the second quarter of 2005.

Selling, general and administrative costs increased for the second quarter of 2006 over the previous year’s second quarter by $1.0 million. Approximately half of the increase was from salaries and benefits associated with the hiring of additional personnel to support the launch of the Company’s new Efonica VoIP services, and approximately $0.2 million resulted from the initiation of recording stock based compensation in connection with the adoption of SFAS No. 123R on January 1, 2006. The Company also incurred additional expenses related to increased legal and professional fees, including expenses associated with Sarbanes Oxley.

Advertising and marketing expenses increased to $0.3 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2006 from $22,000 in the first quarter of 2006, and increased to $.3 million from $0.1 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2005. This increase was the result of an advertising and public relations campaign associated with the initiation of advertising to launch the new Efonica VoIP services.

Commenting on the results, Matthew Rosen, President and Chief Executive Officer of Fusion, said “After diligently preparing for more than 18 months, we launched our new Efonica VoIP service and gained over 400,000 subscribers in less than 60 days. Over the coming quarters, we will be highly focused on driving revenues from our growing subscriber base, which we expect to become an increasingly significant portion of our revenue over time. We will also continue focusing on cost effectively acquiring new subscribers and marketing paid value added services.”

As of June 30, 2006, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $5.9 million compared to $14.8 million as of December 31, 2005. The decrease in cash was primarily a result of $6.2 million in cash used for operations, the purchase of $2.1 million in property and equipment, and $0.5 million used for capital lease payments.
 
Stockholders’ equity at June 30, 2006 was $16.8 million compared to $17.7 million as of December 31, 2005. During March 2006, in connection with the Company’s amendment to the acquisition agreement of the 49.8% minority interest in the Efonica joint venture, the Company released 675,581 shares in escrow. This release of shares in escrow resulted in an increase to stockholders’ equity of approximately $4.4 million and a reduction to the recorded long-term liability.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

The Company believes that EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is useful to investors because it is commonly used in the communications industry to analyze companies on the basis of operating performance and leverage. The Company also believes that EBITDA provides investors with a measure of the Company's operational and financial progress that corresponds with the measurements used by management as a basis for allocating resources and making other operating decisions. Adjusted EBITDA provides an adjusted view of EBITDA that takes into account certain significant nonrecurring transactions, such as impairment losses associated with divested businesses and forgiveness of debt, which vary significantly between periods and are not recurring in nature, as well as non-cash compensation for stock option expense. Although the Company uses Adjusted EBITDA as one of several financial measures to assess its operating performance, its use is limited as it excludes certain significant operating expenses. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to represent cash flows for the period presented, nor have they been presented as an alternative to operating income or as an indicator of operating performance and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Consistent with the SEC Regulation G, the non-GAAP measures in this press release have been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure, which can be viewed under the heading "Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA", immediately following the Consolidated Statements of Operations included in this press release.

Efonica adds additional 150,000 subscribers in less than two weeks

 
NEW YORK, August 14, 2006 - Fusion Telecommunications International, Inc.

“Fusion is very pleased with the rapid growth of the worldwide Efonica subscriber community.
