Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(tabular amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

1. Business and Basis of Presentation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of R.H. Donnelley Corporation and its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Company,” “RHD,” “we,” “us” and “our”) have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of RHD and its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2008, R.H. Donnelley Inc. (“RHDI”), Dex Media, Inc. (“Dex Media”) and Business.com, Inc. (“Business.com”) were our only direct wholly-owned subsidiaries. Effective January 1, 2008, Local Launch, Inc. (“Local Launch”), a former direct wholly-owned subsidiary of RHD, was merged with and into Business.com. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The results of interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or any subsequent period. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented have been included.

We are one of the nation’s largest Yellow Pages and online local commercial search companies, based on revenues, with 2007 revenues of approximately $2.7 billion. We publish and distribute advertiser content utilizing our own Dex brand and three of the most highly recognizable brands in the industry, Qwest, Embarq and AT&T. During 2007, our print and online solutions helped more than 600,000 national and local businesses in 28 states reach consumers who were actively seeking to purchase products and services. During 2007, we published and distributed print directories in many of the country’s most attractive markets including Albuquerque, Chicago, Denver, Las Vegas, Orlando and Phoenix.

Significant Business Developments

On June 25, 2008, RHDI exchanged $594.2 million ($585.7 million accreted value) of RHD’s senior notes and senior discount notes (collectively referred to as the “RHD Notes”) for $412.9 million aggregate principal amount of RHDI’s 11.75% Senior Notes due May 15, 2015 (“RHDI Senior Notes”), referred hereto as “debt exchanges.” The following table presents the accreted value or par value, as applicable, of the RHD Notes that have been exchanged as well as the gain recognized on the debt exchanges.

Reduction of debt from debt exchanges		172,804
Write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs		(11,489	)

Net gain on debt exchanges	$	161,315

On June 6, 2008 and in conjunction with the debt exchanges, we amended RHDI’s senior secured credit facility (“RHDI Credit Facility”) in order to, among other things, permit the debt exchanges and provide additional covenant flexibility. In addition, as part of the amendment, RHDI modified pricing and extended the maturity date of $100.0 million of its revolving credit facility (the “RHDI Revolver”) to June 2011. The remaining $75.0 million will continue to mature in December 2009.

On June 6, 2008, we refinanced the Dex Media West credit facility. The new Dex Media West credit facility consists of a $130.0 million Term Loan A maturing in October 2013, a $950.0 million Term Loan B maturing in October 2014 and a $90.0 million revolving credit facility maturing in October 2013 (“Dex Media West Revolver”). In the event that more than $25.0 million of Dex Media West’s 9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013 (or any refinancing or replacement thereof) are outstanding, the Dex Media West Revolver, Term Loan A and Term Loan B will mature on the date that is three months prior to the final maturity of such notes. The new Dex Media West credit facility includes a $400.0 million uncommitted incremental facility (“Incremental Facility”) that may be incurred as additional revolving loans or additional term loans subject to obtaining commitments for such loans. The Incremental Facility is fully available if used to refinance the Dex Media West 8.5% Senior Notes due 2010, however is limited to $200.0 million if used for any other purpose.

As a result of the amendment of the RHDI Credit Facility and the refinancing of the former Dex Media West credit facility on June 6, 2008, the existing interest rate swaps associated with these two debt arrangements having a notional amount of $2.0 billion are no longer highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows. Accordingly, these interest rate swaps became ineffective on June 6, 2008 and cash flow hedge accounting treatment under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS No. 133”) is no longer permitted. Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 includes a non-cash charge of $42.9 million resulting from amounts previously charged to accumulated other comprehensive loss related to these interest rate swaps, offset by a reduction to interest expense of $4.4 million resulting from the change in the fair value of these interest rate swaps since June 6, 2008.

Please see Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies — Interest Expense and Deferred Financing Costs,” “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies — Gain on Debt Exchanges” and Note 5, “Long-Term Debt, Credit Facilities and Notes” for additional information.

Reclassifications

Expenses presented as cost of revenues in our previous filings are now presented as production, publication and distribution expenses to more appropriately reflect the nature of these costs. Certain prior period amounts included in the condensed consolidated statement of operations have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. Selling and support expenses are now presented as a separate expense category in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. In prior periods, certain selling and support expenses were included in production, publication and distribution expenses and others were included in general and administrative expenses. Additionally, beginning in the fourth quarter of 2007, we began classifying adjustments for customer claims to sales allowance, which is deducted from gross revenues to determine net revenues. In prior periods, adjustments for customer claims were included in bad debt expense under general and administrative expenses. Bad debt expense is now included under selling and support expenses. Accordingly, we have reclassified adjustments for customer claims and bad debt expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 to conform to the current period’s presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on operating income or net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007. The table below summarizes these reclassifications.

In addition, certain prior period amounts included in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Identifiable Intangible Assets and Goodwill

In connection with the Company’s prior business combinations, certain long-term intangible assets were identified in accordance with SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations (“SFAS No. 141”) and recorded at their estimated fair values. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS No. 142”), the fair values of the identifiable intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives in a manner that best reflects the economic benefit derived from such assets. Goodwill is not amortized but is subject to impairment testing on an annual basis or more frequently if we believe indicators of impairment exist. Amortization expense was $104.0 million and $97.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $208.0 million and $187.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

As a result of the decline in the trading value of our debt and equity securities during the first quarter of 2008 and continuing negative industry and economic trends that have directly affected our business, we performed impairment tests as of March 31, 2008 of our goodwill, definite-lived intangible assets and other long-lived assets in accordance with SFAS No. 142 and SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (“SFAS No. 144”), respectively. We used estimates and assumptions in our impairment evaluations, including, but not limited to, projected future cash flows, revenue growth and customer attrition rates.

The impairment test of our definite-lived intangible assets and other long-lived assets was performed by comparing the carrying amount of our intangible assets and other long-lived assets to the sum of their undiscounted expected future cash flows. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, impairment exists if the sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the intangible asset, or its related group of assets, and other long-lived assets. Our testing results of our definite-lived intangible assets and other long-lived assets indicated no impairment as of March 31, 2008.

The impairment test for our goodwill involved a two step process. The first step involved comparing the fair value of the Company with the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities, including goodwill. The fair value of the Company was determined using a market based approach, which reflects the market value of its debt and equity securities as of March 31, 2008. As a result of our testing, we determined that the Company’s fair value was less than the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities, requiring us to proceed with the second step of the goodwill impairment test. In the second step of the testing process, the impairment loss is determined by comparing the implied fair value of our goodwill to the recorded amount of goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is derived from a discounted cash flow analysis for the Company using a discount rate that results in the present value of assets and liabilities equal to the current fair value of the Company’s debt and equity securities. Based upon this analysis, we recognized a non-cash impairment charge of $2.5 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2008.

Since the trading value of our equity securities further declined in the second quarter of 2008 and as a result of continuing negative industry and economic trends, we performed additional impairment tests of our goodwill and other long-lived assets as of June 30, 2008. As a result of these tests, we recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $660.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2008. As a result of this impairment charge, we have no recorded goodwill at June 30, 2008.

No impairment losses were recorded related to our definite-lived intangible assets and other long-lived assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. In addition to the non-cash goodwill impairment charge, we recognized a change in goodwill of $0.5 million related to the Business.com Acquisition (defined in Note 3, “Acquisitions”) during the six months ended June 30, 2008. No impairment losses were recorded related to our goodwill during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.

If negative industry and economic conditions in certain of our markets do not improve, we will be required to assess the recoverability of our long-lived assets and other intangible assets, which could result in additional impairment charges.

Interest Expense and Deferred Financing Costs

Certain costs associated with the issuance of debt instruments are capitalized and included in other non-current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. These costs are amortized to interest expense over the terms of the related debt agreements. The bond outstanding method is used to amortize deferred financing costs relating to debt instruments with respect to which we make accelerated principal payments. Other deferred financing costs are amortized using the effective interest method. Amortization of deferred financing costs included in interest expense was $8.8 million and $5.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $14.3 million and $12.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Apart from business combinations, it is the Company’s policy to recognize losses incurred in conjunction with debt extinguishments as a component of interest expense. Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 includes the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs of $2.2 million associated with the refinancing of the former Dex Media West credit facility and portions of the amended RHDI Credit Facility, which have been accounted for as extinguishments of debt. See Note 3, “Long-Term Debt, Credit Facility and Notes” for additional information.

As a result of the ineffective interest rate swaps associated with the amendment of the RHDI Credit Facility and the refinancing of the former Dex Media West credit facility, interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 includes a non-cash charge of $42.9 million resulting from amounts previously charged to accumulated other comprehensive loss related to these interest rate swaps, offset by a reduction to interest expense of $4.4 million resulting from the change in the fair value of these interest rate swaps since June 6, 2008. Prospective gains or losses on the change in the fair value of these interest rate swaps will be reported in earnings as a component of interest expense.

In conjunction with our acquisition of Dex Media on January 31, 2006 (the “Dex Media Merger”) and as a result of purchase accounting required under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we recorded Dex Media’s debt at its fair value on January 31, 2006. We recognize an offset to interest expense in each period subsequent to the Dex Media Merger for the amortization of the corresponding fair value adjustment over the life of the respective debt. The offset to interest expense was $4.4 million and $7.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $8.6 million and $15.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Gain on Debt Exchanges

As a result of the debt exchanges, we recorded a non-cash gain of $172.8 million, representing the difference between the accreted value or par value, as applicable, of the extinguished RHD Notes and the RHDI Senior Notes. Offsetting this gain is the write-off of $11.5 million of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the extinguished RHD Notes, which has been accounted for as an extinguishment of debt.

Advertising Expense

We recognize advertising expenses as incurred. These expenses include media, public relations, promotional and sponsorship costs and on-line advertising. Total advertising expense was $13.9 million and $9.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $30.6 million and $17.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Total advertising expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 includes $6.6 million and $14.6 million, respectively, of costs associated with traffic purchased and distributed to multiple advertiser landing pages with no comparable expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Approximately 85% of our directory advertising revenues are derived from the sale of advertising to local small- and medium-sized businesses. Most new advertisers and advertisers desiring to expand their advertising programs are subject to a credit review. While we do not believe that extending credit to our local advertisers will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition, no assurances can be given. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, we experienced adverse bad debt trends attributable to economic challenges in our markets. We do not require collateral from our advertisers, although we do charge interest to advertisers that do not pay by specified due dates. The remaining approximately 15% of our directory advertising revenues are derived from the sale of advertising to national or large regional chains. Substantially all of the revenues derived through national accounts are serviced through certified marketing representatives (“CMRs”) from which we accept orders. We receive payment for the value of advertising placed in our directories, net of the CMR’s commission, directly

from the CMR. While we are still exposed to credit risk, the amount of losses from these accounts has been historically less than the local accounts as the advertisers, and in some cases the CMRs, tend to be larger companies with greater financial resources than local advertisers.

At June 30, 2008, we had interest rate swap agreements with major financial institutions with a notional amount of $2.6 billion. Interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $700.0 million have been designated as cash flow hedges and provided an effective hedge of the three-month LIBOR-based interest payments on $700.0 million of bank debt. We are exposed to credit risk in the event that one or more of the counterparties to the agreements does not, or cannot, meet their obligation. The notional amount is used to measure interest to be paid or received and does not represent the amount of exposure to credit loss. Any loss would be limited to the amount that would have been received over the remaining life of the swap agreement. The counterparties to the swap agreements are major financial institutions with credit ratings of AA- or higher. We do not currently foresee a material credit risk associated with these swap agreements; however, no assurances can be given.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

We account for earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share (“SFAS No. 128”). Under the guidance of SFAS No. 128, diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average common shares outstanding plus dilutive potential common stock. Potential common stock includes stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) and restricted stock, the dilutive effect of which is calculated using the treasury stock method.

The calculation of basic and diluted EPS is presented below.


	Three Months Ended					Six Months Ended
	June 30,					June 30,
	2008			2007		2008			2007


Basic EPS
Net income (loss)	$	(338,904	)	$	24,923	$	(1,962,014	)	$	40,872

(1)		Due to the reported net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, the effect of all stock-based awards was anti-dilutive and therefore not included in the calculation of diluted EPS. For the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, 8.8 million and less than 0.1 million shares, respectively, of stock-based awards had exercise prices that exceeded the average market price of the Company’s common stock for the respective period. For the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, 6.2 million and 1.1 million shares, respectively, of stock-based awards had exercise prices that exceeded the average market price of the Company’s common stock for the respective period.

Stock-Based Awards

We account for stock-based compensation under SFAS No. 123 (R), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS No. 123 (R)”). The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense related to stock-based awards granted under our various employee and non-employee stock incentive plans of $5.5 million and $7.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $16.3 million and $21.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

On March 4, 2008, the Company granted 2.2 million stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) to certain employees, including executive officers, in conjunction with its annual grant of stock incentive awards. These SARs, which are settled in our common stock, were granted at a grant price of $7.11 per share, which was equal to the market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date, and vest ratably over three years. In accordance with SFAS No. 123 (R), we recognized non-cash compensation expense related to these SARs of $0.3 million and $3.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively.

In April 2008, the Company increased its estimated forfeiture rate in determining compensation expense from 5% to 8%. This adjustment was based on a review of historical forfeiture information and resulted in a reduction to compensation expense of $1.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2008.

In March 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors approved, subject to shareholder approval, which was obtained in May 2008, a program under which our current employees will be permitted to surrender certain presently outstanding stock options and SARs, with exercise prices substantially above the current market price of our common stock, in exchange for new SARs, with new vesting requirements and an exercise price equal to the market value of our common stock on the grant date (the “Exchange Program”). Please see Note 11, “Subsequent Events” for additional information.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted SFAS No. 157 effective January 1, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not impact our consolidated financial position and results of operations. In accordance with SFAS No. 157, the following table represents our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2008 and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements are included.


	Fair Value Measurements at
	June 30, 2008
Description	Using Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)

Derivatives — Assets	$	7,294
Derivatives — Liabilities	$	(28,664	)

In February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (“FSP No. 157-2”), which defers the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for non-financial assets and liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis, to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has elected the deferral option permitted by FSP No. 157-2 for its non-financial assets and liabilities initially measured at fair value in prior business combinations including intangible assets and goodwill. We do not expect the adoption of FSP No. 157-2 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and certain expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates and assumptions. Estimates and assumptions are used in the determination of recoverability of long-lived assets, sales allowances, allowances for doubtful accounts, depreciation and amortization, employee benefit plans expense, restructuring reserves, and certain assumptions pertaining to our stock-based awards, among others.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (“SFAS No. 161”). SFAS No. 161 amends SFAS No. 133 and requires enhanced disclosures of derivative instruments and hedging activities such as the fair value of derivative instruments and presentation of their gains or losses in tabular format, as well as disclosures regarding credit risks and strategies and objectives for using derivative instruments. SFAS No. 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods

beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact the adoption of SFAS No. 161 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

We have reviewed other accounting pronouncements that were issued as of June 30, 2008, which the Company has not yet adopted, and do not believe that these pronouncements will have a material impact on our financial position or operating results.

3. Acquisitions

On August 23, 2007, we acquired Business.com, a leading business search engine and directory and performance based advertising network (the “Business.com Acquisition”). Business.com now operates as a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of RHD. The results of Business.com have been included in our consolidated results commencing August 23, 2007.

On January 31, 2006, we acquired Dex Media. The acquired business of Dex Media and its subsidiaries (“Dex Media Business”) operates through Dex Media, Inc., one of RHD’s direct, wholly-owned subsidiaries. The results of the Dex Media Business have been included in the Company’s operating results commencing February 1, 2006.

During the second quarter of 2008, we initiated a restructuring plan that includes planned headcount reductions and consolidation of responsibilities (“2008 Restructuring Actions”). During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, we recognized a restructuring charge to earnings of $4.6 million associated with the 2008 Restructuring Actions. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, payments of $1.5 million were made associated with the 2008 Restructuring Actions. We anticipate additional charges to earnings associated with the 2008 Restructuring Actions during 2008.

During the year ended December 31, 2007, we recognized a restructuring charge to earnings of $5.5 million associated with planned headcount reductions and consolidation of responsibilities to be effectuated during 2008 (“2007 Restructuring Actions”). During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, we recognized a restructuring (credit) charge to earnings of $(0.2) million and $0.2 million, respectively, associated with the 2007 Restructuring Actions. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, payments of $1.0 million and $2.2 million, respectively, were made associated with the 2007 Restructuring Actions.

As a result of the Dex Media Merger and integration of the Dex Media Business, approximately 120 employees were affected by a restructuring plan, of which 110 were terminated and 10 were relocated to our corporate headquarters in Cary, North Carolina. Additionally, we vacated certain of our leased Dex Media facilities in Colorado, Minnesota, Nebraska and Oregon. The costs associated with these actions are shown in the table above under the caption “2006 Restructuring Actions.” Payments made with respect to severance during the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 totaled $0.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively, and $0.2 million and $1.5 million, during the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Payments of $0.5 million and $0.6 million were made with respect to the vacated leased Dex Media facilities during the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $1.0 million and $1.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The remaining lease payments for these facilities will be made through 2016.

In connection with a prior business combination, a liability was established for vacated leased facilities, the costs of which are shown in the table above under the caption “2003 Restructuring Actions.” Payments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 reflect lease payments associated with those facilities. Remaining payments related to the 2003 Restructuring Actions will be made through 2012.

5. Long-Term Debt, Credit Facilities and Notes

Long-term debt of the Company at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, including fair value adjustments required by GAAP as a result of the Dex Media Merger, consisted of the following:

Credit Facilities

At June 30, 2008, total outstanding debt under our credit facilities was $3,614.9 million, comprised of $1,433.9 million under the RHDI Credit Facility, $1,101.0 million under the Dex Media East credit facility and $1,080.0 million under the new Dex Media West credit facility.

RHDI

On June 6, 2008 and in conjunction with the debt exchanges, we amended the RHDI Credit Facility in order to, among other things, permit the debt exchanges and provide additional covenant flexibility. In addition, as part of the amendment, RHDI modified pricing and extended the maturity date of $100.0 million of the RHDI Revolver to June 2011. The remaining $75.0 million will continue to mature in December 2009.

As of June 30, 2008, outstanding balances under the RHDI Credit Facility, totaled $1,433.9 million, comprised of $286.5 million under Term Loan D-1 and $1,147.4 million under Term Loan D-2 and no amount was outstanding under the RHDI Revolver (other than $0.2 million utilized under a standby letter of credit). All Term Loans require quarterly principal and interest payments. The RHDI Credit Facility provides for an uncommitted Term Loan C for potential borrowings up to $400.0 million, such proceeds, if borrowed, to be used to fund acquisitions, refinance certain indebtedness or to make certain restricted payments. As noted above, $75.0 million of the RHDI Revolver matures in December 2009, while $100.0 million of the RHDI Revolver matures in June 2011, and Term Loans D-1 and D-2 require accelerated amortization beginning in 2010 through final maturity in June 2011. The weighted average interest rate of outstanding debt under the RHDI Credit Facility was 6.75% and 6.50% at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively.

As amended on June 6, 2008, as of June 30, 2008, the RHDI Credit Facility bears interest, at our option, at either:

	•		The highest of (i) a base rate as determined by the Administrative Agent, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate (as defined) plus 0.50%, and (iii) 4.0%, in each case, plus a 2.50% margin on the RHDI Revolver and a 2.75% margin on Term Loan D-1 and Term Loan D-2; or

	•		The higher of (i) LIBOR rate and (ii) 3.0%, in each case, plus a 3.50% margin on the RHDI Revolver and a 3.75% margin on Term Loan D-1 and Term Loan D-2. We may elect interest periods of 1, 2, 3 or 6 months (or 9 or 12 months if, at the time of the borrowing, all lenders agree to make such term available), for LIBOR borrowings.

Dex Media East

As of June 30, 2008, outstanding balances under the Dex Media East credit facility totaled $1,101.0 million, comprised of $700.0 million under Term Loan A and $400.0 million under Term Loan B and $1.0 million was outstanding under the $100.0 million revolving loan facility (“Dex Media East Revolver”) (with an additional $3.5 million utilized under three standby letters of credit). The Dex Media East Revolver and Term Loan A will mature in October 2013, and the Term Loan B will mature in October 2014. The weighted average interest rate of outstanding debt under the Dex Media East credit facility was 4.54% and 6.87% at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively.

Dex Media West

On June 6, 2008, we refinanced the Dex Media West credit facility. The new Dex Media West credit facility consists of a $130.0 million Term Loan A maturing in October 2013, a $950.0 million Term Loan B maturing in October 2014 and the $90.0 million Dex Media West Revolver maturing in October 2013. In the event that more than $25.0 million of Dex Media West’s 9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013 (or any refinancing or replacement thereof) are outstanding, the Dex Media West Revolver, Term Loan A and Term Loan B will mature on the date that is three months prior to the final maturity of such notes. The new Dex Media West credit facility includes a $400.0 million Incremental Facility that may be incurred as additional revolving loans or additional term loans subject to obtaining commitments for such loans. The Incremental Facility is fully available if used to refinance the Dex Media West 8.5% Senior Notes due 2010, however is limited to $200.0 million if used for any other purpose. The proceeds from the new Dex Media West credit facility were used to refinance the former Dex Media West credit facility and pay related fees and expenses.

As of June 30, 2008, outstanding balances under the new Dex Media West credit facility totaled $1,080.0 million, comprised of $130.0 million under Term Loan A and $950.0 million under Term Loan B and no amount was outstanding under the Dex Media West Revolver. The weighted average interest rate of outstanding debt under the new Dex Media West credit facility was 6.97% at June 30, 2008. The weighted average interest rate of outstanding debt under the former Dex Media West credit facility was 6.51% at December 31, 2007.

As of June 30, 2008, the new Dex Media West credit facility bears interest, at our option, at either:

	•		The highest of (i) the base rate determined by the Administrative Agent, JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate (as defined) plus 0.50%, and (iii) 4.0%, in each case, plus a 2.75% (or 2.50% if the leverage ratio is less than 3.00 to 1.00) margin on the Dex Media West Revolver and Term Loan A and a 3.0% margin on Term Loan B; or

	•		The higher of (i) LIBOR rate and (ii) 3.0% plus a 3.75% (or 3.50% if the leverage ratio is less than 3.00 to 1.00) margin on the Dex Media West Revolver and Term Loan A and a 4.0% margin on Term Loan B. We may elect interest periods of 1, 2, 3, or 6 months (or 9 or 12 months if, at the time of the borrowing, all lenders agree to make such term available), for LIBOR borrowings.

Notes

On June 25, 2008, RHDI exchanged $594.2 million ($585.7 million accreted value) of the RHD Notes for $412.9 million of the RHDI Senior Notes, resulting in a reduction of debt of $172.8 million.

Interest on the RHDI Senior Notes is payable semi-annually on May 15^th and November 15^th of each year, commencing November 15, 2008. The RHDI Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of RHDI and rank equally with all of RHDI’s other senior unsecured indebtedness. The RHDI Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by RHD and RHDI’s subsidiaries that guarantee the obligations under the RHDI Credit Facility on a general, senior unsecured basis. The RHDI Senior Notes are effectively subordinated in right of payment to all of RHDI’s existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt. The RHDI Senior Notes are also structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities (including trade payables) of RHDI’s existing and future subsidiaries that do not guarantee the RHDI Senior Notes. The RHD guarantee with respect to the RHDI Senior Notes is structurally subordinated to the liabilities of RHD’s subsidiaries, other than RHDI and its subsidiaries that guarantee obligations under the RHDI Senior Notes. Claims with respect to the RHDI Senior Notes are structurally senior to claims with respect to any outstanding RHD notes.

The RHDI Senior Notes have not been and will not be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933 or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction. The RHDI Senior Notes will not be listed on any securities exchange.

6. Income Taxes

The effective tax rate on income (loss) before income taxes of 32.3% and 33.1% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, compares to an effective tax rate of 37.9% and 38.5% on income before income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. As a result of the non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $3.1 billion recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2008, we recognized a decrease in our deferred tax liability of $1.1 billion, which directly impacted our deferred tax benefit. The change in the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 is primarily due to the tax consequences of the non-cash goodwill impairment charges. The change in the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 is also attributable to changes in estimates for state and local tax, the refinancing transactions conducted during the second quarter of 2008, which shifted interest expense to our subsidiaries with lower state income tax rates, and an increase in our valuation allowance related to certain 2008 state tax losses.

The following table summarizes the significant differences between the U.S. Federal statutory tax rate and our effective tax rate, which has been applied to the Company’s income (loss) before income taxes.


	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended

During the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company made contributions of $5.6 million and $3.5 million, respectively, to its pension plans. During the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company made contributions of $0.9 million and $0.9 million, respectively, to its postretirement plan. During the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company made contributions of $1.8 million and $2.1 million, respectively, to its postretirement plan. We expect to make total contributions of approximately $15.8 million and $6.8 million to our pension plans and postretirement plan, respectively, in 2008.

8. Business Segments

Management reviews and analyzes its business of providing local commercial search products and solutions, including publishing yellow pages directories, as one operating segment.

9. Legal Proceedings

We are involved in various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business, as well as certain litigation and tax matters. In many of these matters, plaintiffs allege that they have suffered damages from errors or omissions in their advertising or improper listings, in each case, contained in directories published by us.

We are also exposed to potential defamation and breach of privacy claims arising from our publication of directories and our methods of collecting, processing and using advertiser and telephone subscriber data. If such data were determined to be inaccurate or if data stored by us were improperly accessed and disseminated by us or by unauthorized persons, the subjects of our data and users of the data we collect and publish could submit claims against the Company. Although to date we have not experienced any material claims relating to defamation or breach of privacy, we may be party to such proceedings in the future that could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We periodically assess our liabilities and contingencies in connection with these matters based upon the latest information available to us. For those matters where it is probable that we have incurred a loss and the loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated, we record a liability in our consolidated financial statements. In other instances, we are unable to make a reasonable estimate of any liability because of the uncertainties related to both the probable outcome and amount or range of loss. As additional information becomes available, we adjust our assessment and estimates of such liabilities accordingly.

Based on our review of the latest information available, we believe our ultimate liability in connection with pending or threatened legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial position. No material amounts have been accrued in our consolidated financial statements with respect to any such matters.

11. Subsequent Events

Exchange Program

In March 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors approved, subject to shareholder approval, which was obtained in May 2008, the Exchange Program. The exercise prices of the outstanding options and SARs eligible for the Exchange Program range from $10.78 to $78.01. Other outstanding stock awards, including restricted stock units, are not eligible for the Exchange Program.

The Exchange Program is designed to provide eligible employees with an opportunity to exchange deeply underwater options and SARs for new SARs covering fewer shares, but with an exercise price based on the current, dramatically lower market price. In effect, the Exchange Program is intended to enable us to realign the exercise prices of previously granted awards with the current value of our common stock. The Exchange Program will not restore any of the lost in-the-money value of any employee’s eligible awards, but will provide an opportunity to participate in future shareholder value creation through appreciation in our stock price.

The Exchange Program allows for a separate exchange ratio for each outstanding group of options or SARs taking into account such factors as the Black-Scholes value of the surrendered awards and the new SARs to be granted in the Exchange Program, as well as the exercise price and remaining life of each tranche, and other considerations to ensure that the Exchange Program accomplishes its intended objectives. The weighted average exchange ratio for eligible awards held by senior management members (as described below) is 1 to 3.8, whereas the weighted average exchange ratio for eligible awards held by all other eligible employees is 1 to 3.5. These senior management members are our named executive officers, three other members of our executive committee and our three general managers of sales. Non-employee directors of the Company are not eligible to participate in the Exchange Program, nor are former employees holding otherwise eligible options and SARs.

In connection with the Exchange Program, on July 14, 2008, the Company granted 1.2 million SARs to certain employees, including certain senior management members, in exchange for 4.6 million outstanding options and SARs for a total recapture of 3.4 million shares. These SARs, which are settled in our common stock, were granted at a grant price of $1.69 per share. The SARs granted in the Exchange Program have a seven-year term and a new three-year vesting schedule, subject to accelerated vesting upon the occurrence of certain events. Exercisability of the SARs granted to senior management members is conditioned upon the achievement of the following stock price appreciation targets, in addition to the three year service-based vesting requirements for all new SARs: (a) the first vested tranche of new SARs shall not be exercisable until the Company’s stock price equals or exceeds $20 per share; (b) the second vested tranche of new SARs shall not be exercisable until the Company’s stock price equals or exceeds $30 per share; and (c) the third and final vested tranche of new SARs shall not be exercisable until the Company’s stock price equals or exceeds $40 per share. These share price appreciation conditions will be deemed satisfied if at any time during the life of the new SARs the average closing price of the Company’s common stock during any ten consecutive trading days equals or exceeds the specified target stock price, provided, however, that otherwise vested SARs that do not become exercisable prior to their expiration date due to the failure to achieve these performance conditions shall terminate unexercised. In addition, these performance conditions for exercisability of the new SARs granted to senior management members will be deemed satisfied prior to achievement of the respective stock price appreciation targets upon the occurrence of certain events, including a change of control, voluntary or involuntary termination, death, disability or retirement. Certain events effectively accelerate the exercisability of one-third of the total new SARs granted to each senior management member if any stock appreciation target has yet to have been met at that time.

For new SARs granted to holders in the Exchange Program that have a higher aggregate fair value, based upon the Black-Scholes option valuation methodology, than the aggregate fair value of the surrendered awards, we will recognize additional compensation expense under SFAS No. 123 (R) over the three year vesting period of the new SARs. The amount of this additional compensation expense has not been determined at this time.

Other

In July 2008, we registered approximately $1,235.3 million of the 8.875% Series A-4 Senior Notes due 2017, that were issued on October 2, 2007 and October 17, 2007 by RHD.

In July 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the grant of 0.3 million restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to our Chief Executive Officer, David Swanson. The RSU grant vests as follows: upon Mr. Swanson attaining age 55, 50% of these RSUs will vest, and the remainder will vest ratably over each of the next three years, so that the award will be 100% vested upon Mr. Swanson attaining age 58, in all cases subject to continued employment with the Company. Notwithstanding this vesting schedule, the vested and unvested RSUs will be forfeited in their entirety if Mr. Swanson resigns or retires prior to attaining age 58, is terminated for cause or violates the restrictive covenants of his employment agreement and unvested RSUs will be forfeited upon any termination of employment before attaining age 58.

Corporate Overview

We are one of the nation’s largest Yellow Pages and online local commercial search companies, based on revenues, with 2007 revenues of approximately $2.7 billion. We publish and distribute advertiser content utilizing our own Dex brand and three of the most highly recognizable brands in the industry, Qwest, Embarq, and AT&T. In 2007, we extended our Dex brand into our AT&T and Embarq markets to create a unified identity for advertisers and consumers across all of our markets. Our Dex brand is considered a leader in local search in the Qwest markets, and we expect similar success in the AT&T and Embarq markets. In each market, we also co-brand our products with the applicable highly recognizable brands of AT&T, Embarq or Qwest, which further differentiates our search solutions from others.

Our Triple Play ^TM integrated marketing solutions suite encompasses an increasing number of tools that consumers use to find the businesses that sell the products and services they need to manage their lives and businesses: print Yellow Pages directories, our proprietary DexKnows.com ^TM online search site and the rest of the Internet via Dex Search Marketing ^® tools. During 2007, our print and online solutions helped more than 600,000 national and local businesses in 28 states reach consumers who were actively seeking to purchase products and services. Our approximately 1,700 local marketing consultants work on a daily basis to help bring these local businesses and consumers together to satisfy their mutual objectives utilizing our Triple Play products and services.

During 2007, we published and distributed print directories in many of the country’s most attractive markets including Albuquerque, Chicago, Denver, Las Vegas, Orlando, and Phoenix.

Our online products and services provide merchants with additional methods to connect with consumers who are actively seeking to purchase products and services using the Internet. These powerful offerings not only distribute local advertisers’ content to our proprietary Internet Yellow Pages (“IYP”) sites, but extend to other major online search platforms, including Google^®, Yahoo!^{^®}and MSN^{^®}, providing additional qualified leads for our advertisers.

Recent Trends Related to Our Business

We have experienced a significant decline in our stock price during the latter part of 2007 and into 2008. We believe the decline in the stock price primarily reflects the investment community’s evolving view of (1) local media companies generally and (2) companies with significant financial leverage, particularly as the national economic outlook remains uncertain. In that regard, we note that our stock price decline has coincided with a significant drop in the stock prices of many other local media companies, as well as many companies with significant leverage, which have been adversely impacted by instability in the credit markets.

We also have been experiencing lower advertising sales primarily as a result of declines in recurring business (renewal and increases to existing advertisers, collectively), mainly driven by weaker housing trends, reduced consumer confidence and more cautious advertiser spending in our markets given our advertisers’ perception of the economic health of their respective markets. In addition, we have been experiencing adverse bad debt trends attributable to many of these same economic challenges in our markets. If these economic challenges in our markets continue, our advertising sales, bad debt experience and operating results would continue to be adversely impacted in future periods.

In response to these economic challenges facing the Company, we continue to actively manage expenses and are analyzing a host of initiatives to streamline operations and contain costs. At the same time, we are committing our sales force to focus on selling the value provided to local businesses through our Triple Play offering of print yellow pages, internet yellow pages and online search. In addition, we continue to invest in our future through initiatives such as systems modernization and consolidation, new print and digital product introductions and associated employee training. As economic conditions recover in our markets, we believe these investments will drive future revenue growth, thereby enhancing shareholder value.

As a result of the significant decline in the market value of the Company’s debt and equity securities, we recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $2.5 billion during the first quarter of 2008. Since the trading value of our equity securities further declined in the second quarter of 2008 and as a result of continuing negative industry and economic trends, we recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $660.2 million during the second quarter of 2008. As a result of these impairment charges, we have no recorded goodwill at June 30, 2008. These charges were calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS No. 142”), as further described in “Results of Operations.” These charges had no impact on operating cash flow, compliance with debt covenants, tax attributes or management’s outlook for the business.

Segment Reporting

Management reviews and analyzes its business of providing local commercial search products and solutions, including publishing yellow pages directories, as one operating segment.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (“SFAS No. 161”). SFAS No. 161 amends SFAS No. 133 and requires enhanced disclosures of derivative instruments and hedging activities such as the fair value of derivative instruments and presentation of their gains or losses in tabular format, as well as disclosures regarding credit risks and strategies and objectives for using derivative instruments. SFAS No. 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact the adoption of SFAS No. 161 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Acquisitions

On August 23, 2007, we acquired (the “Business.com Acquisition”) Business.com, Inc. (“Business.com”), a leading business search engine and directory and performance based advertising network. Business.com now operates as a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of RHD and the results of Business.com have been included in our consolidated results commencing August 23, 2007. Therefore, our consolidated results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 include the results of Business.com, with no comparable results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.

Impact of Purchase Accounting

As a result of the Dex Media Merger and associated purchase accounting required by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we recorded deferred directory costs, such as print, paper, delivery and commissions, related to directories that were scheduled to publish subsequent to the Dex Media Merger at their fair value, determined as (a) the estimated billable value of the published directory less (b) the expected costs to complete the directories, plus (c) a normal profit margin. We refer to this purchase accounting entry as “cost uplift.” Cost uplift associated with print, paper and delivery costs was amortized over the terms of the applicable directories to production, publication and distribution expenses, whereas cost uplift associated with commissions was amortized over the terms of the applicable directories to selling and support expenses. Cost uplift amortized to production, publication and distribution expenses and selling and support expenses totaled $3.9 million and $3.7 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2007, and $12.8 million and $11.8 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2007, with no comparable expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008.

Net Revenues

The components of our net revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 were as follows:


	Three months ended June 30,
(amounts in millions)	2008			2007			$ Change			% Change


Gross directory advertising revenues	$	665.6		$	670.8		$	(5.2	)		(0.8	)%

Gross directory advertising revenues	$	1,342.5		$	1,339.4		$	3.1			0.2	%

Total	$	1,338.4		$	1,328.3		$	10.1			0.8	%

Our directory advertising revenues are earned primarily from the sale of advertising in yellow pages directories we publish, net of sales claims and allowances. Directory advertising revenues also include revenues for Internet-based advertising products including online directories such as DexKnows.com and Business.com, and Internet Marketing services. Directory advertising revenues are affected by several factors, including changes in the quantity and size of advertisements, acquisition of new customers, renewal rates of existing customers, premium advertisements sold, changes in advertisement pricing and the introduction of new products. Revenues with respect to print advertising and Internet-based advertising products that are sold with print advertising are recognized under the deferral and amortization method, whereby revenues are initially deferred when a directory is published and recognized ratably over the directory’s life, which is typically 12 months. Revenues with respect to Internet-based services that are not sold with print advertising, such as Internet Marketing services, are recognized as delivered or fulfilled.

Gross directory advertising revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2008 decreased $5.2 million, or 0.8%, from the three months ended June 30, 2007. The decline in gross directory advertising revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2008 is primarily due to declines in print revenues primarily as a result of declines in recurring business, mainly driven by weaker housing trends, reduced consumer confidence and more cautious advertiser spending in our markets given our advertisers’ perception of the economic health of their respective markets. These declines are partially offset by revenues from Business.com, with no comparable revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and increased revenues from our online products and services in all of our markets.

Gross directory advertising revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2008 increased $3.1 million, or 0.2%, from the six months ended June 30, 2007. The increase in gross directory advertising revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2008 is primarily due to revenues from Business.com, with no comparable revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The increase in gross directory advertising revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2008 is also attributable to increased revenues from our online products and services in all of our markets. These increases are partially offset by declines in print revenues primarily as a result of declines in recurring business, mainly driven by weaker housing trends, reduced consumer confidence and more cautious advertiser spending in our markets given our advertisers’ perception of the economic health of their respective markets.

Sales claims and allowances for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 decreased $3.0 million, or 21.0%, and $9.3 million, or 28.6%, from the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. The decrease in sales claims and allowances for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 is primarily due to improved quality and lower claims experience in our Qwest markets of $3.3 million and $10.5 million, respectively.

Other revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 decreased $1.1 million, or 10.5%, and $2.3 million, or 10.7%, from the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. Other revenues include late fees received on outstanding customer balances, barter revenues, commissions earned on sales contracts with respect to advertising placed into other publishers’ directories, and sales of directories and certain other advertising-related products. The decrease in other revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 is primarily a result of declines in barter revenues and certain other advertising-related products in our Qwest markets of $0.6 million and $1.6 million, respectively.

Advertising sales is a statistical measure and consists of sales of advertising in print directories distributed during the period and Internet-based products and services with respect to which such advertising first appeared publicly during the period. It is important to distinguish advertising sales from net revenues, which under GAAP are recognized under the deferral and amortization method. Advertising sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 were $678.3 million and $1,396.2 million, respectively, compared to $742.0 million and $1,496.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. Advertising sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 include $14.2 million and $27.5 million, respectively, of advertising sales assuming the Business.com Acquisition occurred on January 1, 2007. The $63.7 million, or 8.6%, and $99.8 million, or 6.7%, decrease in advertising sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, is a result of declines in recurring business, mainly driven by weaker housing trends, reduced consumer confidence and more cautious advertiser spending in our markets given our advertisers’ perception of the economic health of their respective markets. These declines are partially offset by increases in our new online products and services and Business.com advertising sales.

Revenues with respect to print advertising, and Internet-based advertising products that are sold with print advertising, are recognized under the deferral and amortization method, whereby revenues are initially deferred when a directory is published and recognized ratably over the directory’s life, which is typically 12 months. Revenues with respect to Internet-based services that are not sold with print advertising, such as Internet Marketing services, are recognized as delivered or fulfilled.

Expenses

In response to the economic challenges facing the Company, we are actively managing expenses to streamline operations and contain costs. Changes in expenses from prior periods within various components of our total expenses are reflected below.

Our expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 include costs associated with our Triple Play strategy, with focus on our online products and services, and our directory publishing business with new product introductions in our Qwest, Embarq and AT&T markets. These costs relate to the continued launch of our new Dex market brand and our new uniform resource locator (“URL”), DexKnows.com, across our entire footprint, the continued introduction of plus companion directories in our Embarq and AT&T markets, as well as associated marketing and advertising campaigns, employee training associated with new product introductions and modernization and consolidation of our IT platform. We expect that these expenses will drive future advertising sales and revenue improvements.

Certain costs directly related to the selling and production of directories are initially deferred and recognized ratably over the life of the directory under the deferral and amortization method of accounting, with cost recognition commencing in the month directory distribution is substantially complete. These costs are specifically identifiable to a particular directory and include sales commissions and print, paper and initial distribution costs. Sales commissions include amounts paid to employees for sales to local advertisers and to certified marketing representatives (“CMRs”), which act as our channel to national advertisers. All other expenses, such as sales person salaries, sales manager compensation, sales office occupancy, publishing and information technology services, are not specifically identifiable to a particular directory and are recognized as incurred. Our costs recognized in a reporting period consist of: (i) costs incurred in that period and fully recognized in that period; (ii) costs incurred in a prior period, a portion of which is amortized and recognized in the current period; and (iii) costs incurred in the current period, a portion of which is amortized and recognized in the current period and the balance of which is deferred until future periods. Consequently, there will be a difference between costs recognized in any given period and costs incurred in the given period, which may be significant.

Production, Publication and Distribution Expenses

Total production, publication and distribution expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 were $103.5 million and $212.6 million, respectively, compared to $114.0 million and $228.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. The primary components of the $10.5 million, or 9.2%, and $16.0 million, or 7.0%, decrease in production, publication and distribution expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, were as follows:


	Three months ended			Six months ended

Total decrease in production, publication and distribution expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008	$	(10.5	)	$	(16.0	)

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, IT expenses declined $9.3 million and $12.9 million, respectively, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, primarily due to cost savings resulting from lower rates associated with an IT contract that became effective in July 2007. This decline is partially offset by additional spending associated with our IT infrastructure to support our Triple Play products and services, and enhancements and technical support of multiple production systems as we continue to integrate to a consolidated IT platform.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, print, paper and distribution costs declined $6.8 million and $9.7 million, respectively, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2007. This decline is primarily due to our print product optimization program and negotiated price reductions in our print expenses.

Amortization of cost uplift during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 totaled $3.9 million and $12.8 million, respectively, with no comparable expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, we incurred $8.9 million and $17.5 million, respectively, of additional expenses related to internet production and distribution due to additional expenses from Business.com, with no comparable expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, and increased operations, distribution and clicks costs associated with increased revenues from our online products and services.

Selling and Support Expenses

Total selling and support expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 were $175.6 million and $361.9 million, respectively, compared to $171.2 million and $349.5 million reported for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. The primary components of the $4.4 million, or 2.6%, and $12.4 million, or 3.5%, increase in selling and support expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, were as follows:

Total increase in selling and support expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008	$	4.4		$	12.4

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, bad debt expense increased $15.2 million, or 79.3% and $24.0 million, or 59.7%, respectively, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, primarily due to higher provision rates, deterioration in accounts receivable aging categories and increased write-offs, which have been driven by the extension of the write-off policy in our Qwest markets to conform to the legacy RHD markets, weaker housing trends and economic conditions in our markets, as well as the transition to in-house billing and collection services for certain local customers in our Qwest markets that were previously performed by Qwest on our behalf.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, we incurred $4.5 million and $13.6 million, respectively, of additional advertising and branding expenses as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2007. Advertising expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 includes $6.6 million and $14.6 million, respectively, of costs associated with traffic purchased and distributed to multiple advertiser landing pages, with no comparable expense for the prior corresponding periods.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, salesperson costs decreased $4.1 million and $7.7 million, respectively, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, primarily due to planned headcount reductions and consolidation of responsibilities.

Amortization of cost uplift during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 totaled $3.7 million and $11.8 million, respectively, with no comparable expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, directory publishing support costs decreased $3.1 million and $4.3 million, respectively, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, primarily due to a reduction in headcount and related expenses as well as additional capitalization of certain costs.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 were $30.1 million and $65.0 million, respectively, compared to $33.5 million and $70.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. The primary components of the $3.4 million, or 10.1%, and $5.9 million, or 8.3%, decrease in G&A expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, were as follows:


	Three months ended			Six months ended
(amounts in millions)	June 30, 2008			June 30, 2008

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, non-cash stock-based compensation expense under SFAS No. 123 (R) declined $2.2 million and $5.9 million, respectively, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, primarily due to an adjustment of $1.8 million associated with an increase in our forfeiture rate estimate, as well as additional expense related to vesting of awards granted to retirement or early retirement eligible employees during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, IT expenses declined $1.2 million and $2.6 million, respectively, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, primarily due to cost savings resulting from lower rates associated with an IT contract that became effective in July 2007. This decline is partially offset by additional spending associated with our IT infrastructure to support our Triple Play products and services, and enhancements and technical support of multiple production systems as we continue to integrate to a consolidated IT platform.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, restructuring expenses were $4.4 million and $4.8 million, respectively, primarily due to planned headcount reductions and consolidation of responsibilities, with no comparable expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 was $119.5 million and $237.8 million, respectively, compared to $109.2 million and $212.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. Amortization of intangible assets was $104.0 million and $208.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, compared to $97.3 million and $187.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. The increase in amortization expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 is primarily due to the amortization of intangible assets acquired in the Business.com Acquisition of $4.9 million and $9.7 million, respectively, with no comparable expense for the prior corresponding periods. The increase in amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2008 is also due to recognizing a full period of amortization expense related to the local customer relationships intangible asset acquired in the Dex Media Merger of $7.5 million, which commenced in February 2007.

Depreciation of fixed assets and amortization of computer software was $15.5 million and $29.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, compared to $11.9 million and $25.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007. The increase in depreciation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 was primarily due to recognizing depreciation expense related to capital projects placed in service during 2007, as well as accelerated amortization related to software projects that are scheduled to be retired prior to their initial estimated service life.

Goodwill Impairment

No impairment losses were recorded related to our definite-lived intangible assets and other long-lived assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. No impairment losses were recorded related to our goodwill during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.

Operating Income (Loss)

Operating income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 was as follows:


	Three months ended June 30,
(amounts in millions)	2008			2007		$ Change			% Change


Total	$	(425.2	)	$	239.2	$	(664.4	)		(277.8	)%


	Six months ended June 30,

Total	$	(2,662.8	)	$	467.1	$	(3,129.9	)		(670.1	)%

Operating loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 of $(425.2) million and $(2.7) billion, respectively, compares to operating income of $239.2 million and $467.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. The change to operating loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 from operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 is primarily due to the non-cash goodwill impairment charges noted above, as well as the revenue and expense trends described above.

Interest Expense, Net

Net interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 was $236.4 million and $432.3 million, respectively, and includes $8.8 million and $14.3 million, respectively, of non-cash amortization of deferred financing costs. Net interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 was $199.0 million and $400.6 million, respectively, and includes $5.3 million and $12.1 million, respectively, of non-cash amortization of deferred financing costs. As a result of the ineffective interest rate swaps associated with the amendment of the RHDI Credit Facility and the refinancing of the former Dex Media West credit facility, interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 includes a non-cash charge of $42.9 million resulting from amounts previously charged to accumulated other comprehensive loss related to these interest rate swaps, offset by a reduction to interest expense of $4.4 million resulting from the change in the fair value of these interest rate swaps since June 6, 2008. Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 also includes the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs of $2.2 million associated with the refinancing of the former Dex Media West credit facility and portions of the amended RHDI Credit Facility, which have been accounted for as extinguishments of debt.

The increase in net interest expense of $37.4 million, or 18.8%, and $31.7 million, or 7.9%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, is primarily due to additional interest expense associated with the ineffective interest rate swaps and extinguishment of debt noted above. This increase is partially offset by lower interest rates associated with the Company’s refinancing transactions conducted during the fourth quarter of 2007 and lower interest rates on our variable rate debt during the respective periods as compared to the prior corresponding periods. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for further detail regarding our debt obligations.

In conjunction with the Dex Media Merger and as a result of purchase accounting required under GAAP, we recorded Dex Media’s debt at its fair value on January 31, 2006. We recognize an offset to interest expense each period for the amortization of the corresponding fair value adjustment over the life of the respective debt. The offset to interest expense was $4.4 million and $8.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, and $7.7 million and $15.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. The decline in the amortization of the fair value adjustment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 is directly attributable to the Company’s refinancing transactions conducted during the fourth quarter of 2007.

Gain on Debt Exchanges

Income Taxes

Net Income (Loss) and Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 of $(338.9) million and $(2.0) billion, respectively, compares to net income of $24.9 million and $40.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. The change to net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 from net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 is primarily due to the non-cash goodwill impairment charges noted above as well as the revenue and expense trends described above, offset by the gain recognized on the debt exchanges.

See Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in Part 1 — Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further details and computations of the basic and diluted EPS amounts. For the three months ended June 30, 2008, basic and diluted EPS was $(4.93), compared to basic and diluted EPS of $0.35 and $0.34 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, basic and diluted EPS was $(28.51), compared to basic and diluted EPS of $0.58 and $0.57 for the six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. Due to the fact that there was a reported net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, the calculation of diluted EPS was anti-dilutive compared to basic EPS. Diluted EPS cannot be greater (or less of a loss) than basic EPS. Therefore, reported basic EPS and diluted EPS were the same for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Long-term debt of the Company at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, including fair value adjustments required by GAAP as a result of the Dex Media Merger, consisted of the following:

Credit Facilities

RHDI

As amended on June 6, 2008, as of June 30, 2008, the RHDI Credit Facility bears interest, at our option, at either:

	•		The highest of (i) a base rate as determined by the Administrative Agent, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate (as defined) plus 0.50%, and (iii) 4.0%, in each case, plus a 2.50% margin on the RHDI Revolver and a 2.75% margin on Term Loan D-1 and Term Loan D-2; or

	•		The higher of (i) LIBOR rate and (ii) 3.0%, in each case, plus a 3.50% margin on the RHDI Revolver and a 3.75% margin on Term Loan D-1 and Term Loan D-2. We may elect interest periods of 1, 2, 3 or 6 months (or 9 or 12 months if, at the time of the borrowing, all lenders agree to make such term available), for LIBOR borrowings.

Dex Media East

Dex Media West

On June 6, 2008, we refinanced the Dex Media West credit facility. The new Dex Media West credit facility consists of a $130.0 million Term Loan A maturing in October 2013, a $950.0 million Term Loan B maturing in October 2014 and the $90.0 million Dex Media West Revolver maturing in October 2013. In the event that more than $25.0 million of Dex Media West’s 9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013 (or any refinancing or replacement thereof) are outstanding, the Dex Media West Revolver, Term Loan A and Term Loan B will mature on the date that is three months prior to the final maturity of such notes. The new Dex Media West credit facility includes a $400.0 million Incremental Facility that may be incurred as additional revolving loans or additional term loans subject to obtaining commitments for such loans. The Incremental Facility is fully available if used to refinance the Dex Media West 8.5% Senior Notes due 2010, however is limited to $200.0 million if used for any other purpose. The proceeds from the new Dex Media West credit facility were used to refinance the former Dex Media West credit facility and pay related fees and expenses.

As of June 30, 2008, the new Dex Media West credit facility bears interest, at our option, at either:

	•		The highest of (i) the base rate determined by the Administrative Agent, JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate (as defined) plus 0.50%, and (iii) 4.0%, in each case, plus a 2.75% (or 2.50% if the leverage ratio is less than 3.00 to 1.00) margin on the Dex Media West Revolver and Term Loan A and a 3.0% margin on Term Loan B; or

	•		The higher of (i) LIBOR rate and (ii) 3.0% plus a 3.75% (or 3.50% if the leverage ratio is less than 3.00 to 1.00) margin on the Dex Media West Revolver and Term Loan A and a 4.0% margin on Term Loan B. We may elect interest periods of 1, 2, 3, or 6 months (or 9 or 12 months if, at the time of the borrowing, all lenders agree to make such term available), for LIBOR borrowings.

Notes

On June 25, 2008, RHDI exchanged $594.2 million ($585.7 million accreted value) of the RHD Notes for $412.9 million of the RHDI Senior Notes, resulting in a reduction of debt of $172.8 million.

In July 2008, we registered approximately $1,235.3 million of the 8.875% Series A-4 Senior Notes due 2017, that were issued on October 2, 2007 and October 17, 2007 by RHD.

Refinancings

The purpose of the refinancings noted above was to reduce near-term mandatory debt repayments, extend our maturity profile, provide additional covenant flexibility and reduce debt levels. Certain of these refinancings have been accounted for as extinguishments of debt. The debt exchanges resulted in a gain of approximately $161.3 million, representing the difference between the accreted value or par value, as applicable, of the extinguished RHD Notes and RHDI Senior Notes of $172.8 million, offset by the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs of $11.5 million associated with the extinguished RHD Notes. In addition, interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 includes the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs of $2.2 million associated with the refinancing of the former Dex Media West credit facility and portions of the amended RHDI Credit Facility.

Impact of Purchase Accounting

As a result of the Dex Media Merger and in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141, Business Combinations (“SFAS No. 141”), we were required to record Dex Media’s outstanding debt at its fair value as of the date of the Dex Media Merger, and as such, a fair value adjustment was established at January 31, 2006. This fair value adjustment is amortized as a reduction of interest expense over the remaining term of the respective debt agreements using the effective interest method and does not impact future scheduled interest or principal payments. Amortization of the fair value adjustment included as a reduction of interest expense was $4.4 million and $8.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, and $7.7 million and $15.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. As of June 30, 2008, $95.2 million of the fair value adjustment remains unamortized as shown in the following table.

Liquidity and Cash Flows

Our primary source of liquidity will continue to be cash flow generated from operations as well as available borrowing capacity under the revolver portions of the Company’s credit facilities. We expect that our primary liquidity requirements will be to fund operations and service the Company’s indebtedness. Our ability to meet our debt service requirements will be dependent on our ability to generate sufficient cash from operations and incur additional borrowings under the Company’s credit facilities. Our primary sources of cash flow will consist mainly of cash receipts from the sale of advertising in our yellow pages and from our online products and services and can be impacted by, among other factors, general economic conditions, competition from other yellow pages directory publishers and other alternative products, consumer confidence and the level of demand for our advertising products and services. Subsequent to the refinancing of the former Dex Media West credit facility with the new Dex Media West credit facility, we believe that cash flows from operations, along with borrowing capacity under the revolver portions of the Company’s credit facilities, will be adequate to fund our operations and capital expenditures and meet our debt service requirements for at least the next 15 to 24 months. However, we make no assurances that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that sufficient borrowing capacity will be available under the revolver portions of the Company’s credit facilities to enable us to fund our operations and capital expenditures, meet all debt service requirements, pursue all of our strategic initiatives, or for other purposes. From time to time we may purchase our equity and/or debt securities and/or our subsidiaries’ debt securities through privately negotiated transactions, open market purchases or otherwise depending on, among other things, the availability of funds, alternative investments and market conditions.

Primarily as a result of our business combinations, we have a significant amount of debt. Aggregate outstanding debt as of June 30, 2008 was $9.9 billion (including fair value adjustments required by GAAP as a result of the Dex Media Merger). As a result of the refinancing transactions conducted during the second quarter of 2008 and other debt repayment, we reduced our net debt by $236.5 million during the second quarter of 2008.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, we made scheduled principal payments of $3.7 million and $35.1 million, respectively, and prepaid an additional $1,096.0 million and $1,156.0 million, respectively, in principal under our credit facilities, which includes prepayments associated with the refinancing of the former Dex Media West credit facility, for total credit facility repayments of $1,099.7 million and $1,191.1 million, respectively, excluding revolver payments. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, we made revolver payments of $163.8 million and $396.2 million, respectively, offset by revolver borrowings of $157.8 million and $373.1 million, respectively, resulting in a net decrease of $6.0 million and $23.1 million, respectively, of the revolver portions under the Company’s credit facilities.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, we made aggregate net cash interest payments of $164.1 million and $378.4 million, respectively. Aggregate net cash interest payments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 include $16.0 million of interest that accrued on the RHD Notes prior to the debt exchanges. Interest on these notes was initially scheduled to be paid in the third quarter of 2008. At June 30, 2008, we had $82.0 million of cash and cash equivalents before checks not yet presented for payment of $6.5 million, and combined available borrowings under our revolvers of $360.3 million. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, we periodically utilized our revolvers as a financing resource to balance the timing of our periodic payments and our prepayments made under our credit facilities and interest payments on our senior notes and our subsidiaries’ senior notes and senior subordinated notes with the timing of cash receipts from operations. Our present intention is to repay borrowings under all revolvers in a timely manner and keep any outstanding amounts to a minimum.

Cash provided by operating activities was $276.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Key contributors to operating cash flow include the following:

	•		$(1,962.0) million in net loss, which includes the impact of the non-cash goodwill impairment charge.

	•		$2,149.3 million of net non-cash items consisting of the non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $3,123.9 million, offset by $(974.6) million in deferred income taxes, which includes the tax impact of the non-cash goodwill impairment charge.

	•		$161.3 million of the net non-cash gain on the debt exchanges.

	•		$385.4 million of other net non-cash items primarily consisting of $237.8 million of depreciation and amortization, $64.2 million in bad debt provision, $38.4 million of net additional interest expense associated with ineffective interest rate swaps, and $26.5 million in other non-cash items, primarily consisting of $36.4 million related to the accretion of our discounted debt and $12.1 million related to

			the amortization of deferred financing costs, offset by $13.3 million associated with the change in fair value of our interest rate swaps and $8.6 million associated with the amortization of the fair value adjustments required by GAAP as a result of the Dex Media Merger, which reduced interest expense. Other net non-cash items also include $16.3 million of stock-based compensation expense and $2.2 million in loss on extinguishment of debt, reflecting the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the former Dex Media West credit facility.

	•		$92.4 million net use of cash from an increase in accounts receivable of $128.9 million due to an increase in days outstanding of customer balances and deterioration in accounts receivable aging categories, which has been driven by the extension of the write-off policy in our Qwest markets to conform to the legacy RHD markets, weaker economic conditions, the transition to in-house billing and collection services for certain local customers in our Qwest markets that were previously performed by Qwest on our behalf, as well as publication cycle seasonality, offset by an increase in deferred directory revenues of $36.5 million. The change in deferred revenues and accounts receivable are analyzed together given the fact that when a directory is published, the annual billable value of that directory is initially deferred and unbilled accounts receivable are established. Each month thereafter, typically one twelfth of the billing value is recognized as revenues and billed to customers.

	•		$25.1 million net source of cash from a decrease in other assets, consisting of a $46.9 million decrease in prepaid directory costs resulting from publication seasonality, offset by a $21.8 million increase in other current and non-current assets, primarily relating to deferred commissions, print, paper and delivery costs and changes in the fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements.

	•		$71.3 million net use of cash from a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, primarily reflecting a $32.7 million decrease in trade accounts payable resulting from timing of invoice processing versus payment thereon, a $31.9 million decrease in accrued interest payable on outstanding debt and a $6.7 million decrease in accrued liabilities, which include accrued salaries and related bonuses and accrued income taxes.

	•		$3.5 million increase in other non-current liabilities, including pension and postretirement long-term liabilities.

Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $26.0 million and includes the following:

	•		$30.3 million used to purchase fixed assets, primarily computer equipment, software and leasehold improvements.

	•		$4.3 million in cash proceeds from the disposition of an equity investment in the fourth quarter of 2007, which were received in January 2008.

Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $214.3 million and includes the following:

	•		$1,018.7 million in proceeds, net of costs, from borrowings under our new Dex Media West credit facility, which was used to refinance the former Dex Media West credit facility and pay related fees and expenses.

	•		$1,191.2 million in principal payments on term loans under our credit facilities and notes. With regard to our credit facilities, $35.1 million represents scheduled principal payments and $1,156.0 million represents principal payments made on an accelerated basis, at our option, from proceeds received with the new Dex Media West credit facility and from available cash flow generated from operations.

	•		$373.1 million in borrowings under our revolvers, used primarily to fund temporary working capital requirements.

	•		$396.2 million in principal payments on our revolvers.

	•		$8.5 million in fees associated with the issuance of the RHDI Senior Notes, which has been accounted for as a non-cash financing activity.

	•		$6.1 million used to repurchase our common stock. This use of cash pertains to common stock repurchases made during 2007 that had not settled as of December 31, 2007.

	•		$4.2 million in the decreased balance of checks not yet presented for payment.

	•		$0.1 million in proceeds from the exercise of employee stock options.

Cash provided by operating activities was $314.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Key contributors to operating cash flow include the following:

	•		$40.9 million in net income.

	•		$331.1 million of net non-cash charges primarily consisting of $212.2 million of depreciation and amortization, $40.2 million in bad debt provision, $21.5 million of stock-based compensation expense, $31.9 million in other non-cash charges, primarily related to the amortization of deferred financing costs and amortization of the fair value adjustments required by GAAP as a result of the Dex Media Merger, and $25.3 million in deferred income taxes.

	•		$54.0 million net use of cash from an increase in accounts receivable of $155.5 million, offset by an increase in deferred directory revenue of $101.5 million. The change in deferred revenue and accounts receivable are analyzed together given the fact that when a directory is published, the annual billable value of that directory is initially deferred and unbilled accounts receivable are established. Each month thereafter, typically one twelfth of the billing value is recognized as revenue and billed to customers.

	•		$8.6 million net source of cash from a decrease in other assets, consisting of a $22.6 million decrease in prepaid expenses, offset by a $14.0 million increase in other current and non-current assets, primarily relating to deferred commissions, print, paper and delivery costs and changes in the fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements.

	•		$20.3 million net use of cash from a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, primarily reflecting a $17.9 million decrease in accrued liabilities, including accrued salaries and related bonuses, and a $4.9 million decrease in accrued interest payable on outstanding debt, offset by a $2.5 million increase in trade accounts payable.

	•		$8.0 million increase in other non-current liabilities, including pension and postretirement long-term liabilities.

Cash used by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $39.9 million and includes the following:

	•		$37.4 million used to purchase fixed assets, primarily computer equipment, software and leasehold improvements.

	•		$2.5 million used to fund an equity investment.

Cash used by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $365.7 million and includes the following:

	•		$737.6 million in principal payments on debt borrowed under each of the credit facilities. Of this amount, $143.0 million represents scheduled principal payments, $204.0 million represents principal payments made on an accelerated basis, at our option, from available cash flow generated from operations and $390.6 million represents principal payments on the revolvers.

	•		$361.6 million source in borrowings under the revolvers.

	•		$11.8 million in proceeds from the exercise of employee stock options.

	•		$1.5 million used in the decreased balance of checks not yet presented for payment.

Contractual Obligations

As a result of the Company’s recent refinancing activities, the contractual obligations table presented below sets forth our annual commitments as of June 30, 2008 for principal and interest payments on our debt. The debt repayments as presented in this table include only the scheduled principal payments under our current debt agreements and do not include any anticipated prepayments. The debt repayments also exclude fair value adjustments required under purchase accounting, as these adjustments do not impact our payment obligations.

⁽¹⁾		Included in long-term debt are principal amounts owed under our credit facilities and our senior notes and senior subordinated notes, including the current portion of long-term debt.

⁽²⁾		Interest on debt represents cash interest payment obligations assuming all indebtedness at June 30, 2008 will be paid in accordance with its contractual maturity and assumes interest rates on variable interest debt as of June 30, 2008 will remain unchanged in future periods. The weighted average interest rates under the RHDI, Dex Media East and new Dex Media West Credit Facilities were 6.75%, 4.54% and 6.97%, respectively, at June 30, 2008. Please refer to “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for interest rates on our senior notes and our senior subordinated notes.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk and Risk Management

The RHDI Credit Facility and the Dex Media East and new Dex Media West credit facilities bear interest at variable rates and, accordingly, our earnings and cash flow are affected by changes in interest rates. The RHDI Credit Facility requires that we maintain hedge agreements to provide either a fixed interest rate or interest rate protection on at least 50% of RHDI’s total outstanding debt. The Dex Media East and new Dex Media West credit facilities require that we maintain hedge agreements to provide a fixed rate on at least 33% of their respective indebtedness.

The Company has entered into interest rate swaps that effectively convert approximately $2.6 billion or 71% of the Company’s variable rate debt to fixed rate debt as of June 30, 2008. At June 30, 2008, approximately 37% of our total debt outstanding consists of variable rate debt, excluding the effect of our interest rate swaps. Including the effect of our interest rate swaps, total fixed rate debt comprised approximately 89% of our total debt portfolio as of June 30, 2008. The interest rate swaps mature at varying dates from August 2008 through March 2013.

Under the terms of the agreements, the Company receives variable interest based on three-month LIBOR and pays a weighted average fixed rate of 4.4%. The weighted average variable rate received on our interest rate swaps was 2.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2008. These periodic payments and receipts are recorded as interest expense.

We use derivative financial instruments for hedging purposes only and not for trading or speculative purposes. By using derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to changes in interest rates, the Company exposes itself to credit risk and market risk. Credit risk is the possible failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. When the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty owes the Company, which creates credit risk for the Company. When the fair value of a derivative contract is negative, the Company owes the counterparty and, therefore, it is not subject to credit risk. The Company minimizes the credit risk in derivative financial instruments by entering into transactions with major financial institutions with credit ratings of AA- or higher.

Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of a financial instrument that results from a change in interest rates. The market risk associated with interest-rate contracts is managed by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken.

Interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $700.0 million have been designated as cash flow hedges and provided an effective hedge of the three-month LIBOR-based interest payments on $700.0 million of bank debt.

Market Risk Sensitive Instruments

The Company utilizes a combination of fixed-rate and variable-rate debt to finance its operations. The variable-rate debt exposes the Company to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates. Management believes that it is prudent to mitigate the interest rate risk on a portion of its variable-rate borrowings. To satisfy this objective, the Company has entered into fixed interest rate swap agreements to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from changes in interest rates on variable-rate debt. Certain interest rate swap agreements have been designated as cash flow hedges. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, an Amendment of FAS 133 and SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, the swaps are recorded at fair value. On a quarterly basis, the fair values of the swaps are determined based on quoted market prices and, assuming effectiveness, the differences between the fair value and the book value of the swaps are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss, a component of shareholders’ equity. The swaps and the hedged item (three-month LIBOR-based interest payments on $700.0 million of bank debt) have been designed so that the critical terms (interest reset dates, duration and index) coincide. Assuming the critical terms continue to coincide, the cash flows from the swaps will exactly offset the cash flows of the hedged item and no ineffectiveness will exist.

For derivative instruments that are not designated or do not qualify as hedged transactions, the initial fair value, if any, and any subsequent gains or losses on the change in the fair value are reported in earnings as a component of interest expense.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

	(a)		Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Based on their evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Company have each concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective and sufficient to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported appropriately and within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

	(b)		Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item1A. Risk Factors

The four risk factors presented below replace and supersede risk factors numbered 3,5, 9 and 10, respectively, set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 (“2007 Form 10-K”). There have been no other material changes to the Company’s risk factors as disclosed in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in our 2007 Form 10-K.

3) Competition

The U.S. directory advertising industry is highly competitive and we operate in our markets with significant competition. In nearly all markets, we compete with one or more yellow pages directory publishers, which are predominantly independent publishers, such as Yellow Book, the U.S. business of Yell Group Ltd., and White Directory Publishing Inc. In the past, many of these independent publishers were small, undercapitalized companies that had minimal impact on our business. However, over the past five years, Yellow Book and several other regional competitors have become far more aggressive and have grown their businesses dramatically, both through acquisition and expansion into new markets. We compete with Yellow Book in the majority of our markets. In some markets, we also compete with other incumbent publishers, such as Idearc, the directory business formerly affiliated with Verizon Communications Inc., and AT&T, including the former Bell South Publishing and Advertising business recently acquired by AT&T, in overlapping and adjacent markets.

Virtually all independent publishers compete aggressively on price to increase market share. This may affect our pricing or revenues in the future. Due to the recent economic environment and trends in our industry, we have experienced a decline in advertising sales during the first six months of 2008 and we expect this trend to continue throughout 2008.

Some of the incumbent and independent publishers with which we compete are larger than we are and have greater financial resources than we have. Although we may have limited market overlap with incumbent publishers relative to the size of our overall footprint, we may not be able to compete effectively with these publishers for advertising sales in these limited markets. In addition, incumbent and independent publishers may commit more resources to certain markets than we are able to commit, thus limiting our ability to compete effectively with these publishers in these areas for advertising sales. Similarly, we may face increased competition from these companies or others

(including private equity firms) for acquisitions in the future.

We also compete for advertising sales with other traditional media, including newspapers, magazines, radio, direct mail, telemarketing, billboards and television. Many of these other traditional media competitors are larger than we are and have greater financial resources than we have. We may not be able to compete effectively with these companies for advertising sales or acquisitions in the future.

The Internet has also emerged as an attractive medium for advertisers. Advances in technology have brought and likely will continue to bring new competitors, new products and new channels to the industry, including increasing use of electronic delivery of traditional directory information and electronic search engines/services. The Yellow Pages directory advertising business is subject to changes arising from developments in technology, including information distribution methods and users’ preferences. The use of the Internet and wireless devices by consumers as a means to transact commerce results in new technologies being developed and services being provided that compete with our traditional products and services. National search companies such as Googleand Yahoo! are focusing and placing a high priority on local commercial search initiatives. Our growth and future financial performance may depend on our ability to develop and market new products and services and utilize new distribution channels, while enhancing existing products, services and distribution channels, to incorporate the latest technological advances and accommodate changing user preferences, including the use of the Internet and wireless devices. We may not be able to respond successfully to any such developments.

Directory publishers, including us, have increasingly bundled online advertising with their traditional print offerings in an attempt to increase advertiser value, increase customer retention and enhance total usage. We compete through our IYP sites with the IYP directories of independent and other incumbent directory publishers, and with other Internet sites, including those available through wireless applications that provide classified directory information, such as YellowPages.com, Switchboard.com, Superpages.com and Citysearch.com, and with search engines and portals, such as Yahoo!, Google, MSN and others. We may not be able to compete effectively with these other companies, some of which may have greater resources than we do, for advertising sales or acquisitions in the future. Our Internet strategy and our business may be adversely affected if major search engines build local sales forces or otherwise begin to more effectively reach small local businesses for local commercial search services.

Our ability to provide Internet Marketing solutions to our advertisers is dependent upon relationships with major Internet search companies. Loss of key relationships or changes in the level of service provided by these search companies could impact performance of our Internet Marketing solutions. The success of our relationships with Internet search companies also depends on the compatibility of our technologies, and we have in the past, and may in the future, experience difficulties in this regard. Many of these Internet search companies are larger than we are and have greater financial resources than we have. We may not be able to compete effectively with these companies for advertising sales or acquisitions in the future, particularly should Internet based advertising sales become increasingly accessible to small- and medium- sized businesses. In addition, Internet Marketing services are provided by many other competitors within the territory we service and our advertisers could choose to work with other, sometimes larger providers of these services or with search engines directly.

Competition from other Yellow Pages publishers, other forms of traditional media and the Internet may affect our ability to attract and retain advertisers and to increase advertising rates.

In addition, the market position of telephone utilities, including those with which we have relationships, may be adversely impacted by the Telecommunications Act of 1996, referred to as the Telecommunications Act, which effectively opened local telephone markets to increased competition. In addition, Federal Communication Commission rules regarding local number portability, advances in communications technology (such as wireless devices and voice over Internet protocol) and demographic factors (such as potential shifts in younger generations away from wire line telephone communications towards wireless or other communications technologies) may further erode the market position of telephone utilities, including Qwest, Embarq and AT&T. As a result, it is possible that Qwest, Embarq and AT&T will not remain the primary local telephone service provider in their local service areas. If Qwest, Embarq or AT&T were no longer the primary local telephone service provider in any particular local service area, our license to be the exclusive publisher in that market and to use the incumbent local exchange carrier (“ILEC”) brand name on our directories in that market may not be as valuable as we presently anticipate, and we may not realize some of the existing benefits under our commercial arrangements with Qwest, Embarq or AT&T.

5) Recognition of impairment charges for our intangible assets, other long-lived assets or goodwill

At June 30, 2008, the net carrying value of our intangible assets totaled approximately $11.0 billion. As a result of the impairment charges during the first and second quarter of 2008 noted below, we have no recorded goodwill at June 30, 2008. Our intangible assets and other long-lived assets are subject to impairment testing in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets. We review the carrying value of our intangible assets and other long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Significant negative industry or economic trends, including the market price of our common stock or the fair value of our debt, disruptions to our business, unexpected significant changes or planned changes in the use of the intangible assets and other long-lived assets, and mergers and acquisitions could result in an impairment charge for any of our intangible assets or other long-lived assets.

As a result of the decline in the trading value of our debt and equity securities during the first quarter of 2008 and continuing negative industry and economic trends that have directly affected our business, we performed impairment tests as of March 31, 2008 of our goodwill and definite-lived intangible assets in accordance with SFAS No. 142 and SFAS No. 144, respectively. We used certain estimates and assumptions in our impairment evaluations, including, but not limited to, projected future cash flows, revenue growth and customer attrition levels. As a result of this testing, we recorded a $2.5 billion non-cash, pre-tax charge associated with goodwill impairment in the first quarter of 2008.

No impairment losses were recorded related to our definite-lived intangible assets and other long-lived assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2008.

If negative industry and economic conditions in certain markets do not improve, we will be required to assess the recoverability of our long-lived assets and other intangible assets, which could result in additional impairment charges. Any additional impairment charge related to our intangible assets or other long-lived assets could have a significant effect on our financial position and results of operations in the periods recognized.

9) Future changes in directory publishing obligations in Qwest and AT&T markets and other regulatory matters

Pursuant to our publishing agreement with Qwest, we are required to discharge Qwest’s regulatory obligation to publish White Pages directories covering each service territory in the 14 Qwest states where it provided local telephone service as the incumbent service provider as of November 8, 2002. If the staff of a state public utility commission in a Dex Media state were to impose additional or changed legal requirements in any of Qwest’s service territories with respect to this obligation, we would be obligated to comply with these requirements on behalf of Qwest, even if such compliance were to increase our publishing costs. Pursuant to the publishing agreement, Qwest will only be obligated to reimburse us for one half of any material net increase in our costs of publishing directories that satisfy Qwest’s publishing obligations (less the amount of any previous reimbursements) resulting from new governmental legal requirements, and this obligation will expire on November 7, 2009. Our competitive position relative to competing directory publishers could be adversely affected if we are not able to recover from Qwest that portion of our increased costs that Qwest has agreed to reimburse and, moreover, we cannot assure you that we would be able to increase our revenue to cover any unreimbursed compliance costs.

Pursuant to the directory services license agreement with AT&T, we are required to discharge AT&T’s regulatory obligation to publish White Pages directories covering each service territory in the Illinois and Northwest Indiana markets for which we acquired the AT&T Directory Business. If the staff of a state public utility commission in Illinois or Indiana were to impose additional or change legal requirements in any of these service territories with respect to this obligation, we would be obligated to comply with these requirements on behalf of AT&T, even if such compliance were to increase our publishing costs. Pursuant to the directory services agreement, AT&T will generally not be obligated to reimburse us for any increase in our costs of publishing directories that satisfy AT&T’s publishing obligations. Our results of operations relative to competing directory publishers could be adversely affected if we are not able to increase our revenues to cover any such compliance costs.

Our directory services license agreement with Embarq generally provides that Embarq will reimburse us for material increases in our costs relating to our complying with Embarq’s directory publishing obligations in our Embarq markets.

As the IYP directories industry develops, specific laws relating to the provision of Internet services and the use of Internet and Internet-related applications may become relevant. Regulation of the Internet and Internet-related services is itself still developing both formally by, for instance, statutory regulation, and also less formally by, for instance, industry self regulation. If our regulatory environment becomes more restrictive, including by increased Internet regulation, our profitability could decrease.

Our operations, as well as the properties owned and leased for our business, are subject to stringent laws and regulations relating to environmental protection. The failure to comply with applicable environmental laws, regulations or permit requirements, or the imposition of liability related to waste disposal or other matters arising under these laws, could result in civil or criminal fines, penalties or enforcement actions, third-party claims for property damage and personal injury or requirements to clean up property or other remedial actions. Some of these laws provide for “strict liability,” which can render a party liable for environmental or natural resource damage without regard to negligence or fault on the part of the party.

In addition, new laws and regulations (including, for example, limiting distribution of print directories), new interpretations of existing laws and regulations, increased governmental enforcement or other developments could require us to make additional unforeseen expenditures or could lead to us suffering declines in revenues. For example, “opt out” legislation has been proposed in certain states where we operate that would allow consumers to opt out of the delivery of print yellow pages. Although to date, this proposed legislation has not been signed into law in any of the states where we operate, we cannot assure you that similar legislation will not be passed in the future. If such legislation were to become effective, it could have a material adverse effect on the usage of our products and, ultimately, our revenues. Depending on the consistency of the legislation if adopted in multiple jurisdictions, it could materially increase our operating costs in order to comply. We are adopting voluntary measures to permit consumers to share with us their preferences with respect to the delivery of our various print and digital products. If a large number of consumers advise us that they do not desire delivery of our products, the usage of our products and, ultimately our revenues, could materially decline, which may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Many of these laws and regulations are becoming increasingly stringent, and the cost of compliance with these requirements can be expected to increase over time. To the extent that the costs associated with meeting any of these requirements are substantial and not adequately provided for, there could be a material adverse effect on our businesses, financial condition and results of operations.

10) Reliance on, and extension of credit to, small and medium-sized businesses.

Approximately 85% of our directory advertising revenue is derived from selling advertising to small and medium-sized enterprises (“SMEs”). In the ordinary course of our yellow pages publishing business, we extend credit to these advertisers for advertising purchases. SMEs, however, tend to have fewer financial resources and higher failure rates than large businesses, especially during a downturn in the general economy. The proliferation of very large retail stores may continue to harm small- and medium-sized businesses. We believe these limitations are significant contributing factors to having advertisers in any given year not renew their advertising in the following year. In addition, full or partial collection of delinquent accounts can take an extended period of time. Consequently, we could be adversely affected by our dependence on and our extension of credit to small- and medium-sized businesses. For the year ended December 31, 2007, our bad debt expense represented approximately 3.0% of our net revenue. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, our bad debt expense represented approximately 5.2% and 4.8% of our net revenue, respectively.
