Exhibit 99.1 July 30, 2003 John Lowber, (907) 868-5628; jlowber@gci.com Bruce Broquet, (907) 868-6660; bbroquet@gci.com David Morris, (907) 265-5396; dmorris@gci.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE GCI REPORTS DETAILED SECOND QUARTER 2003 FINANCIAL RESULTS ANCHORAGE, AK -- GCI (NASDAQ:GNCMA) today reported its detailed second quarter 2003 results. For the second quarter of 2003, the company recorded net income of $4.8 million or $0.08 per share on a diluted basis. The second quarter 2003 net income compares to a net loss of ($1.1) million or ($0.03) per share for the second quarter of 2002. For the six-months ended June 30, 2003, GCI recorded net income of $7.4 million or $0.11 per share on a diluted basis, after the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle of ($0.5) million or ($0.01) per share on a diluted basis, net of income tax benefit. GCI recorded net income of $1.1 million or $0.00 per share on a diluted basis for the six-months ending June 30, 2002. Revenues totaled $95.9 million for the second quarter of 2003, an increase of 3.5 percent as compared to $92.7 million in the second quarter of 2002. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion (EBITDA) increased to $30.8 million for the second quarter of 2003, an increase of $12.1 million when compared to second quarter 2002 EBITDA of $18.7 million. EBITDA for the second quarter of 2002 included a charge of $9.7 million increasing the company's reserve for bad debts due to the WorldCom bankruptcy. The EBITDA for the second quarter of 2003 includes a $0.9 million non-recurring refund from an intrastate access cost pool that previously overcharged the company for access services. Revenues for the second quarter increased sequentially 3.3 percent to $95.9 million as compared to revenues of $92.8 million in the first quarter of 2003. GCI's second quarter EBITDA of $30.8 million compares to EBITDA of $28.9 million in the first quarter of 2003. EBITDA for the first quarter of 2003 included a net $1.9 million refund from a local exchange carrier for access services rendered in previous years. GCI's second quarter 2003 revenues of $95.9 million and EBITDA of $30.8 million exceeded guidance for revenues of approximately $92 million to $95 million and EBITDA in excess of $28.9 million, respectively. "The detailed results for the second quarter demonstrate that the company continues to perform solidly on all fronts," said Ron Duncan, GCI president. "While long distance voice revenues are down from the prior year, the drop is almost completely offset by increased data and other business units revenue growth. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues are stable and margins are increasing." "We recently announced that MCI extended its Contract for Alaska Access Services for five years to July 2008. In addition, MCI received bankruptcy court approval for the settlement agreement that resolves all receivables with GCI. Under terms of that agreement, the balance of GCI's approximately $11.1 million claim, will be paid to GCI in the form of a credit against future services purchased from MCI. We expect to fully utilize this amount within the next two years. We are very pleased with the outcome of the settlement agreement and we look forward to continuing our strategic alliance with MCI." The company's local services business added 2,900 access lines during the second quarter and now serves 101,900 access lines, an estimated 21 percent share of the total access line market in Alaska. GCI's statewide dial-up Internet platform decreased 1,300 customers to 70,300 customers during the second quarter as more customers continue to migrate to cable modems. More than 40,500 Internet customers are using GCI cable modem service, an increase of 1,900 over the first quarter of 2003. GCI cable television services now pass 200,405 homes and serve 137,230 basic subscribers. Basic subscribers increased sequentially by 947 subscribers from the first quarter of 2003. GCI serves 30,700 digital customers in Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau, Kenai, Soldotna and the Mat-Su Valley. Digital service was added to the Mat-Su Valley during the second quarter of 2003. Highlights: o Consolidated revenues increased 3.5 percent to $95.9 million for the second quarter of 2003 as compared to $92.7 million in 2002. Second quarter 2003 revenues increased approximately 3.3 percent sequentially over revenues of $92.8 million in the first quarter of 2003. o Consolidated EBITDA increased to $30.8 million in the second quarter 2003 as compared to $18.7 million in 2002. Consolidated EBITDA for the second quarter of 2002 included a charge of $9.7 million increasing the company's reserve for bad debts. Consolidated second quarter EBITDA of $30.8 million increased $1.9 million sequentially, an increase of 6.6 percent, from $28.9 million for the first quarter of 2003. Second quarter 2003 EBITDA of $30.8 million includes a $0.9 million non-recurring refund from an intrastate access cost pool that previously overcharged the company for access services. o MCI and GCI resolved billing disputes that arose from the WorldCom bankruptcy proceedings and agreed to extend their service contract to July of 2008. o Broadband, private line and other data revenues including high capacity leases increased 19.8 percent to $21.2 million during the second quarter of 2003 as compared to $17.7 million in the same period of 2002. o GCI had approximately 101,900 local access lines in service at the end of the second quarter 2003 representing an increase of 2,900 access lines over the first quarter or an annualized sequential growth rate of 11.7 percent. The company estimates it has an approximate 21 percent share of the total access line market in Alaska. Approximately 87 percent of GCI's access lines are provisioned on its own facilities or on resold local loops. o GCI serves approximately 92,200 Internet customers. GCI's statewide dial-up Internet platform decreased 1,300 customers to 70,300 customers during the second quarter as more customers continue to migrate to cable modems. o The company had more than 40,500 cable modem customers at the end of the second quarter 2003, as compared to 31,200 at the end of the second quarter of 2002. GCI's cable modem penetration rate is one of the highest in the nation. More than 99 percent of GCI's cable customers are able to receive cable modem service. o During the three months ending June 30, 2003 capital expenditures decreased to $10.9 million as compared to $20.1 million in second quarter of 2002. Interest expense increased approximately $2.9 million during the second quarter of 2003 as compared to the second quarter of 2002 due to the refinancing of the company's senior debt in the fourth quarter of 2002. GCI generated approximately $9.0 million of free cash flow during the second quarter before repayment of $2.7 million of senior debt and payment of bank fees related to an amendment of its senior credit facility that extended its maturity to October 31, 2007. o GCI estimates that third quarter revenues will total approximately $95 million to $97 million and EBITDA is expected to total approximately $32 million. o GCI has been advised by Ron Duncan, the company's CEO, that he intends to establish a 10b5-1 Plan for the sale of up to 285,000 shares of his GCI stock between September 1 and the end of the year. o GCI will further discuss second quarter highlights and provide additional commentary during its Investor and Analyst Conference call on Thursday, July 31 at 2:00 p.m. EDT.

Long Distance Results Long distance and related revenues for the second quarter of 2003 decreased $0.8 million or 1.4 percent to $58.0 million as compared to $58.8 million for the second quarter of 2002. Broadband, private line and dedicated data services revenues, product sales and long haul fiber lease revenues increased $3.5 million offsetting most of the $4.2 million decrease in switched minutes revenues. Switched minutes revenues decreased as a result of fewer minutes carried and lower rates. For the second quarter of 2003 long distance EBITDA totaled $19.4 million as compared to $9.1 million in the second quarter of 2002. EBITDA growth for the second quarter of 2003 is primarily attributable to the second quarter 2002 $9.7 million bad debt charge for the WorldCom bankruptcy. Long distance revenues of $58.0 million for the second quarter of 2003 are up $1.9 million, an increase of 3.0 percent, from $56.3 million in the first quarter of 2003. Switched minutes, broadband, private line and dedicated data services revenues and long haul fiber lease revenues increased $3.7 million sequentially from the first quarter of 2003, offsetting a $1.4 million decrease in product sales revenues. Switched minutes revenues increased $1.9 million sequentially from the first quarter of 2003 primarily due to the seasonal increase in minutes offset, in part, by slightly lower rates. Long distance EBITDA of $19.4 million for the second quarter of 2003 increased 4.3 percent from $18.6 million in the first quarter of 2003. The sequential increase in EBITDA is primarily attributable to increases in higher margin broadband, private line and other data revenues and decreases in lower margin equipment revenues. Total minutes-of-use were down 5.3 percent in the second quarter of 2003 as compared to the second quarter of 2002 and were up 8.5 percent sequentially from the first quarter of 2003. Revenues from broadband, private line and other data services including high capacity leases increased 19.8 percent to $21.2 million during the second quarter of 2003 as compared to $17.7 million in the same period of 2002 and were up 8.2 percent from $19.6 million in the first quarter of 2003. The increase in revenue results from growing demand for data services by commercial and governmental customers and others, and delivery of broadband services into rural Alaska. The total number of billed long distance customers for the last month of the second quarter of 2003 increased 1.1 percent from the last month of the first quarter of 2003. Cable Television Results Cable television revenues for the second quarter increased 9.1 percent to $23.9 million from $21.9 million in the second quarter of 2002, and were up 2.1 percent from $23.4 million in the first quarter of 2003. EBITDA increased 11.1 percent to $11.0 million from $9.9 million in the second quarter of 2002, and increased 3.8 percent from $10.6 million in the second quarter of 2003. The increase in revenues and EBITDA is due, in part, to the increase in basic subscribers and more sales of higher margin products such as digital television and cable modem services. Gross margins as a percentage of revenues increased by 79 basis points year-over-year and 85 basis points sequentially. The growth rate in higher value products such as digital cable service and cable modems is expected to help mitigate the margin effects of increasing programming and copyright costs. As of June 30, 2003, the company's cable television operations passed 200,405 homes and served 137,230 basic subscribers (111,403 equivalent basic subscribers). Average revenue per equivalent basic subscriber increased 8.2 percent to $70.99 for the second quarter of 2003 as compared to $65.64 for the second quarter of 2002, and was up 2.2 percent from $69.48 from the first quarter of 2003. The company added 947 basic subscribers to its system during the second quarter. The company offers special interest digital cable television service in Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau, Kenai, Soldotna and the Mat-Su Valley area. GCI served 30,700 special interest digital customers at the end of the second quarter of 2003. During the second quarter of 2003, GCI began offering digital cable television in the Mat-Su Valley. GCI acquired the Mat-Su Valley cable system, which passes more than 13,500 homes and serves more than 7,800 basic subscribers, in the fourth quarter of 2001. In October 2002 GCI, along with the other largest publicly traded multiple system operators, signed a pledge to support and adhere to new voluntary reporting guidelines on common operating statistics to provide investors and others with a better understanding of the company's operations. The operating statistics below include capital expenditures and customer information from cable television, cable telephony and cable modem services. GCI's capital expenditures by standard reporting category for the six months ending June 30, 2003 and 2002 follow (amounts in thousands): 2003 2002 --------- --------- Customer premise equipment ("CPE") $ 3,830 3,233 Commercial 171 325 Scalable infrastructure 459 2,199 Line extensions 243 242 Upgrade/rebuild 963 2,533 Support capital 263 4,118 --------- --------- $ 5,929 12,650 ========= ========= The standardized definition of a customer relationship is the number of customers that receive at least one level of service, encompassing voice, video, and data services, without regard to which services customers purchase. At June 30, 2003 and 2002 GCI's cable business had 124,318 and 123,257 customer relationships, respectively. The standardized definition of a revenue-generating unit is the sum of all primary analog video, digital video, high-speed data and telephony customers, not counting additional outlets. At June 30, 2003 and 2002 GCI's cable business had 177,793 and 166,432 revenue generating units, respectively. The increase in the revenue generating units of 4,512 and 3,852 from March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, is due to an increase in the number of hotels that subscribe to cable television services for their summer tourist season. Each hotel room is considered to be a revenue-generating unit. Local Telephone Results Local telephone service revenues for the second quarter increased 13.6 percent to $9.2 million as compared to $8.1 million in the second quarter of 2002, and increased 9.5 percent sequentially from $8.4 million in the first quarter of 2003. The increase in sequential local service revenues is attributable to increasing customer counts and several one time revenue adjustments in the first quarter, none of which were individually material which reduced first quarter revenues below what they otherwise would have been. Local services generated a $1.0 million EBITDA loss for the second quarter, an increase of $0.1 million over the $0.9 million loss in the second quarter of 2002. The second quarter EBITDA loss of $1.0 million compares to a $1.2 million EBITDA loss in the first quarter of 2003. If the local telephone business was given credit for approximately $1.7 million in access cost savings on calls placed by GCI long distance customers who are also GCI local customers, the company's local telephone business would have reported positive EBITDA. GCI's local telephone business has been generating positive cash flow on a stand-alone basis for several quarters. GCI provided local service for approximately 101,900 access lines at the end of the second quarter of 2003, an increase of 2,900 access lines or 2.9 percent from the 99,000 access lines in service at the end of the first quarter of 2003. The company estimates it has attained a 21 percent share of the total access line market in Alaska. Internet Access Results At the end of the second quarter of 2003 GCI had 92,200 Internet customers. This includes 51,700 dial-up customers who do not have any form of cable modem service and 24,900 dial-up customers who also have cable modem service. Approximately 6,300 of the dial-up customers who also have cable modem service have not activated their dial-up service. GCI had a total of 40,500 cable modem customers including 15,600 customers who do not have any GCI dial-up plan. The company added 9,300 cable modem customers at the end of the second quarter of 2003 when compared to the second quarter of 2002. GCI's cable modem penetration is one of the highest in the nation. GCI's statewide dial-up Internet platform decreased 1,300 customers to 70,300 customers during the second quarter of 2003 as more customers continue to migrate to cable modems. GCI reported a total of 71,600 Internet customers at the end of the first quarter of 2003. This number was based on the total number of active dial-up customers. As noted above, not all cable modem customers paying for a dial-up plan have activated their dial-up service. When GCI first started selling cable modem service it was packaged in a way that almost all cable modem customers were also dial up customers. As GCI introduced new packages and plans and started promoting its new cable modem LiteSpeed service the number of cable modem customers without a dial up plan increased substantially. An internal audit during the second quarter revealed that these numbers had risen substantially enough that they should be reported separately. In future quarters GCI will report Internet customers in the format above. Internet access revenues for the second quarter of 2003 totaled $4.8 million, an increase of 23.1 percent year-over-year and 4.3 percent sequentially when compared to second quarter 2002 revenues of $3.9 million and first quarter 2003 revenues of $4.6 million. The increase in Internet access revenues is attributed to existing subscribers adding additional features and services, and customer migration from the dial-up platform to cable modem or GCI's LiveWire high speed service. The second quarter EBITDA of $1.4 million is an improvement of $0.8 million over the EBITDA of $0.6 million in the second quarter of 2002 and an improvement of $0.4 million over the EBITDA of $1.0 million in the first quarter of 2003. Internet access results continue to improve, reflecting increasing economies of scale, operating cost controls and migration of dial up customers to higher speed data service. During the first quarter of 2003 GCI began offering a new cable modem service called LiteSpeed as an alternative product to dial-up Internet service and HyperNet 384/64 kilobit-per-second cable modem service priced at $39.99 per month to GCI long distance customers. LiteSpeed is a 64/32 kilobit-per-second Internet service offered at $24.99 per month to GCI long distance customers. GCI began offering Internet access services during 1998 and its dial-up Internet service is offered in most major Alaska markets. Due to the completion of major cable plant upgrades, GCI can now offer cable modem service to 99 percent of its cable entertainment subscribers. GCI is now providing cable modem Internet access in the Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau, Valdez, Sitka, Nome, Seward, Kenai, Soldotna, Mat-Su Valley, Cordova, Petersburg, Wrangell, Homer, Bethel, Kodiak and Ketchikan. Other Items GCI has been advised by Ron Duncan, the company's CEO, that he intends to establish a plan under Section 10b5-1 of the Securities Act for the sale of approximately 230,000 to 285,000 shares of his GCI stock between September 1 and the end of the year. Under the terms of the plan 150,000 shares would be sold in the open market during specific periods subject to market prices. A total of $750,000 worth of stock would be sold back to GCI at the closing price on prescribed dates subject to market prices pursuant to the terms of Mr. Duncan's Loan Agreement with the company which provides for payment in either cash or stock. The proceeds of Mr. Duncan's sale of stock to the company will be used in its entirety to reduce his debt to GCI. The majority of the proceeds from any open market sales will be used to reduce secured debt to a third party. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in 2000 enacted Rule 10b5-1, which permits executives to sell or buy their company's stock throughout the life of the 10b5-1 plan, regardless of the timing of financial release dates or other corporate developments.

Notes: (1) EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) is the sum of Net Income (Loss), Net Other Expense, Taxes, and Depreciation, Amortization and Accretion. EBITDA is not presented as an alternative measure of Net Income (Loss), Operating income or cash flow from operations, as determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principals (GAAP.) GCI's management uses EBITDA to evaluate the operating performance of its business, and as a measure of performance for incentive compensation purposes. GCI believes EBITDA is a measure used as an analytical indicator of income generated to service debt and fund capital expenditures. In addition, multiples of current or projected EBITDA are used to estimate current or prospective enterprise value. EBITDA does not give effect to cash used for debt service requirements, and thus does not reflect funds available for investment or other discretionary uses. EBITDA as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
