FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

GCI REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2013 FINANCIAL RESULTS

·  
Consolidated revenue of $186.2 million
·  
Adjusted EBITDA of $58.6 million
·  
Net income of $3.2 million or $0.08 per diluted share

ANCHORAGE, AK – General Communication, Inc. (“GCI”) (NASDAQ:GNCMA) today reported its first quarter 2013 results with revenues increasing to $186.2 million over revenues of $171.9 million in the first quarter of 2012, an increase of $14.3 million or 8.3 percent. Adjusted EBITDA increased $3.8 million or 7.0 percent over the first quarter of 2012 EBITDA of $54.8 million.

GCI’s first quarter 2013 net income totaled $3.2 million or earnings per diluted share of $0.08 and compares to net income of $1.4 million or earnings per diluted share of $0.03 for the first quarter of 2012.

First quarter of 2013 revenues increased $2.5 million or 1.4 percent over revenues of $183.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. Adjusted EBITDA increased $5.5 million or 10.4 percent over adjusted EBITDA of $53.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2012.

“GCI had a good first quarter,” said Ron Duncan, GCI president. “Typically the first quarter is the slowest one of the year. We are off to a good start and I am pleased with both the customer metrics and financial performance.”

“Yesterday we completed the refinancing of our senior credit facility, taking another step in satisfying the remaining conditions to close the AWN transaction.”
 
        The AWN transaction is expected to close once all requisite regulatory approvals are received. The timing of such closing during the quarter will impact GCI’s 2013 results. GCI will issue guidance on consolidated revenues, EBITDA and AWN’s expected preferred distributions for 2013 after the AWN transaction has been approved and completed.
 
 
Highlights
·  
Managed broadband revenues for the first quarter of 2013 totaled $28.0 million, an increase of $3.5 million or 14.1 percent over the first quarter of 2012 and a decrease of $0.5 million on a sequential basis. The year-over-year growth is due to continuing investment in terrestrial broadband facilities in rural Alaska and success in acquiring additional telemedicine and distance learning customers.

·  
GCI repurchased 764,380 shares of its Class A common stock in the first quarter of 2013 at an average price per share of $8.64. GCI is authorized to repurchase $99.7 million of its shares depending on company performance, market conditions, liquidity, and subject to board oversight. At the end of the first quarter of 2013, GCI had approximately 41.5 million shares outstanding.

·  
GCI received payment of $2.0 million for IRU capacity sold to a large carrier customer in the first quarter of 2013. The IRU sale is treated as deferred revenue and will be recognized into income over the expected life of the capacity.

·  
GCI had 130,400 consumer and commercial cable modem customers at the end of the first quarter of 2013, an increase of 8,400 over the end of the first quarter of 2012 and an increase of 1,500 on a sequential basis. Average monthly revenue per cable modem for the first quarter of 2013 was $66.53, an increase of $5.05 over $61.48 posted for the prior year and $0.76 over $65.77 reported for the fourth quarter of 2012.

·  
On April 30, 2013, GCI Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of GCI, closed on a $390 million senior secured credit facility with Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank, as administrative agent, Union Bank, N.A., as syndication agent, and SunTrust Bank as documentation agent, and as co-lead arrangers and joint book runners. The pro-rata bank facility provides up to $240.0 million of delayed draw term loans and a $150.0 million revolving credit facility. The interest rate under the loan agreement is LIBOR plus a margin of 2 percent to 3 percent dependent upon the total leverage ratio. The facility will mature on April 30, 2018.

·  
In part, in anticipation of closing the AWN transaction, we have changed our segment reporting methodology. Effective the first of this year, we are now organized in two segments, including wireless and wireline. The wireless segment’s revenue is derived from wholesale wireless services, which includes revenue that was previously reported in the historical consumer, network access, and commercial segments. The wireline segment’s revenue is from all of our other services and products and includes three major customer groups: consumer, business services and managed broadband. The consumer customer group includes the historical consumer segment, the business services customer group includes the historical commercial and network access segments, and the managed broadband customer group includes the historical managed broadband and regulated operations segments. The comparative figures for 2012 have been recast to be consistent with the new segment presentation.

Wireless
Wireless revenues of $33.8 million, for the first quarter of 2013, increased $4.4 million or 14.9 percent when compared to the prior year quarter and $1.2 million or 3.5 percent on a sequential basis. The increase is primarily due to increases in roaming revenue and retail non-Lifeline wireless subscribers. GCI served 141,600 wireless subscribers at the end of the first quarter 2013.

GCI served 108,900 postpaid and pre-paid non-Lifeline wireless subscribers at the end of the first quarter of 2013, an increase of 10,300 over the end of the prior year quarter and an increase of 1,300 wireless customers sequentially.

      GCI served 32,700 Lifeline customers at the end of the first quarter of 2013, a decrease of 8,700 when compared to the prior year quarter and an increase of 300 on a sequential basis.

Wireline - Consumer
Consumer revenues of $68.1 million for the first quarter of 2013 increased 2.0 percent over the first quarter of 2012 and were steady with the fourth quarter of 2012. An increase in data and wireless revenues offset the decreases in voice and video revenues when compared to the first quarter of 2012.

Consumer voice revenues of $9.5 million decreased $1.7 million when compared to the prior year quarter and were steady with the fourth quarter of 2012 as customers continue to abandon wireline service and shift to wireless. Consumer local access lines in service at the end of the first quarter of 2013 totaled 68,000, a decrease of 8,100 lines from the first quarter of 2012 and 1,700 lines from the fourth quarter of 2012.

Consumer video revenues of $28.0 million decreased $1.1 million from the first quarter of 2012 and $0.7 million from the fourth quarter of 2012. The decrease is primarily due to a decline in basic video subscribers. Consumer basic video subscribers totaled 122,000 at the end of the first quarter of 2013, a decrease of 2,200 subscribers from the first quarter of 2012 and 300 subscribers from the fourth quarter of 2012. GCI has had a steady increase in the number of customers who subscribe only to cable modem service. These customers may be purchasing video programming from other sources including over-the-top providers such as Netflix and Hulu.

Consumer data revenues of $24.1 million increased $3.6 million or 17.6 percent over the first quarter of 2012 and $0.9 million or 4.1 percent over the fourth quarter of 2012. The increase in consumer data revenues is due to an increase in cable modem customers and increasing monthly usage. GCI added 6,300 consumer cable modem customers over the first quarter of 2012 and cable modem customer counts increased by 1,400 on a sequential basis.

Consumer wireless revenues of $6.5 million increased $0.5 million or 8.3 percent from the first quarter of 2012. Wireless revenues decreased $0.5 million when compared to the fourth quarter of 2012.

Wireline - Business Services
Business services revenues of $56.3 million increased $5.1 million or 10.1 percent over the first quarter of 2012 and $2.2 million or 4.1 percent sequentially.

Voice revenues of $12.3 million were steady with the first quarter of 2012 and increased $0.8 million or 6.7 percent sequentially.

Commercial data service revenues were $40.1 million in the first quarter of 2013, an increase of $5.0 million over the first quarter of 2012 and an increase of $1.7 million over the fourth quarter of 2012. Commercial data service revenues include both transport charges for data circuits, professional services which are time and materials charges for GCI on-site support of customer operations and data center revenues. As summarized in the table below, data transport charges of $23.6 million decreased by $1.2 million as compared to the first quarter of 2012, time and material charges for support activities increased by $6.1 million to $16.2 million and data center revenues increased by $0.1 million over the first quarter of 2012.

Wireline - Managed Broadband
           Managed broadband revenues for the first quarter of 2013 totaled $28.0 million, an increase of $3.5 million or 14.1 percent over the first quarter of 2012 and a decrease of $0.5 million on a sequential basis. The year-over-year growth is due to continuing investment in terrestrial broadband facilities in rural Alaska and success in acquiring additional telemedicine and distance learning customers. GCI will complete the extension of its terrestrial broadband network to Nome by the end of this year and to Kotzebue by the end of 2014. The sequential decrease in revenues is due to fewer product sales in the first quarter of 2013.

Other Items
SG&A expenses for the first quarter of 2013 totaled $64.5 million, an increase of $1.5 million or 2.5 percent as compared to $63.0 million for the first quarter of 2012. The increase is due to labor and related benefits and contract labor related to non-capitalizable network projects for our ConnectMD and SchoolAccess customers. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A expenses decreased to 34.7 percent in the first quarter of 2013 as compared to 36.6 percent in the prior year quarter.

GCI’s first quarter 2013 capital expenditures totaled $29.3 million as compared to $26.6 million in the first quarter of 2012.

Notes:
(1) EBITDA (as defined in Note 2 below) before deducting share-based compensation,
accretion expense, and net loss attributable to non-controlling interests and non-cash
contribution adjustment.
 
(2) Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization is the sum of Net
Income, Interest Expense (including Amortization of Deferred Loan Fees), Interest
Income, Income Tax Expense, and Depreciation and Amortization Expense.
EBITDA is not presented as an alternative measure of net income, operating
income or cash flow from operations, as determined in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  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.
