  RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, INCLUDING COMBINED RESULTS
 In addition to the GAAP presentation of results for the five months ended June 30, 2006, the one
month ended January 31, 2006 and the six months ended June 30, 2005, we have provided the following
combined results of Dex Media East for the six months ended June 30, 2006 because we believe that
such financial information is important to gain an understanding of the impact of the Donnelley
Merger on Dex Media Easts underlying historical performance and future financial results. The
financial information for the combined six months ended June 30, 2006 includes the financial
information of the Predecessor Company for the one month ended January 31, 2006 and of the
Successor Company for the five months ended June 30, 2006. Although we have provided these combined
results in order to provide a more meaningful discussion of the periods presented, the results of
periods presented are not strictly comparable due to the change in basis of assets that resulted
from the Donnelley Merger.
