Recent Highlights:
- HNS continues its leadership position in the VSAT terminal market having shipped almost 320,000 VSATs across its product lines in 2009, according to the 2009 COMSYS VSAT Report. In the enterprise VSAT market, the report confirmed that Hughes has sold more than 165,000 terminals over the past two years, approximately half the total enterprise terminals sold globally and twice that of its nearest competitor.
- HNS announced that it surpassed 500,000 North American subscribers on its HughesNet® service. At a time when the U.S. is debating how to bring about universal broadband connectivity, Hughes continues to deliver high-speed Internet access services to individuals and small businesses that are in underserved and unserved areas of North America and otherwise would have to rely on slow dial-up connections.
- HNS expanded provision of high-speed satellite Internet access for U.S. troops deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan. Available at U.S. military bases, the broadband Internet service is being delivered via HNS' new operations hub in Dubai, enabling troops to stay in touch with family and friends at home.
- HNS' initiative in providing services to state and local governments gained much momentum; in 2009, HNS signed contracts with Arkansas, New York, Oregon, South Carolina, and Texas and more recently, with Colorado and Virginia.
- HNS was selected by Frost & Sullivan as the 2009 North American Company of the Year in the Satellite Industry, in recognition of HNS' growth strategies, high-quality customer service, and product/service reliability.
- HNS announced the availability of the Hughes 9350 BGAN mobile satellite terminal, fully type-approved for operation over Inmarsat's Broadband Global Area Network (BGAN) satellite service.
To summarize, Pradman Kaul, president and CEO said, "Despite the challenging economic environment last year, I'm happy to report that the Hughes business model has proven to be steadfast. Innovation of broadband technologies and products continues as our core strength, but it's the thriving service business globally that's fueling our growth. In 2009, recurring service revenue from an expanding base of repeat customers in North America, Europe, India, and Brazil exceeded our product revenues and is growing at a faster rate. Overall, the company exceeded its 2009 objectives for both Adjusted EBITDA and cash despite slightly lower revenues. Our consumer business continued to lead the way with outstanding growth in subscriber acquisitions and ARPU, combined with lower churn. This validates our strategy of pursuing the estimated 10 million households and 3.5 million small businesses in North America unserved and underserved by terrestrial broadband technologies. The resulting strong revenue growth was offset by some slowdown in hardware spending by our enterprise customers which we believe is a reflection of the macro-economic climate. As noted earlier, the termination of the Telematics contract impacted our revenues and margins, and we expect insignificant business from this sector in the next few years. Looking to the future, our new Jupiter satellite construction is proceeding on plan and we are actively assessing a number of interesting strategic opportunities. We continue to improve our positive bottom-line results as a fully integrated service provider, now with almost 250,000 subscribers on our SPACEWAY® 3 satellite. I believe we are positioned well for continued success and growth in 2010 and beyond."
Commenting on Hughes' financial performance, Grant Barber, executive vice president and CFO said, "Our focus on cost control and working capital management continued in the fourth quarter resulting in the strong performance in Adjusted EBITDA and cash from operations. Our liquidity position continues to be healthy with consolidated cash and marketable securities of $308 million at December 31, 2009."

Note on Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Hughes provides non-GAAP financial data in addition to providing financial results in accordance with GAAP. This press release includes Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, equity incentive plan compensation, long-term incentive/retention cash plan and other adjustments permitted by the debt instruments of HNS. We believe this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information to both management and investors by excluding specific expenses that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results. Internally, we use this non-GAAP measure in our review of the performance of management and in the performance of our business and operations. Management also uses Adjusted EBITDA of HNS for purposes of determining the payments to be made in connection with the long-term cash incentive retention program. Externally, we believe that investors may find this non-GAAP financial information useful in their assessment of our operating performance. In addition, we believe that this non-GAAP financial measure provides information that is useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results separate and apart from items that may, or could, have a disproportionately positive or negative impact on results in any particular period. Adjusted EBITDA of HNS is also used in calculating covenant compliance under HNS' credit agreements and the indenture governing HNS' 9½% Senior Notes due 2014 issued in 2006 and 2009.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized term under GAAP. This nonGAAP measure does not represent net income or cash flows from operations, as these terms are defined under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of operating performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Additionally, this non-GAAP measure is not intended to be a measure of cash flow available to management for discretionary use, as such measure does not consider certain cash requirements such as capital expenditures (including expenditures on VSAT operating lease hardware and capitalized software development costs), tax payments, debt service requirements (including VSAT operating lease hardware), and payments under the long-term cash incentive retention program. Adjusted EBITDA as presented herein is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Any analysis of non-GAAP financial measures should be used only in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP.
