1.	BASIS PRESENTATION OF UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The unaudited consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, the unaudited consolidated statements of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, the unaudited consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 and related footnotes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required annually by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial information presented should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2004. In the opinion of management, the interim data includes all adjustments (consisting of only normally recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. Operating results for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2005.


	Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period balances to conform to current period presentation.


2.	ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Alamosa (Delaware), Inc. ("Alamosa (Delaware)") is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Alamosa PCS Holdings, Inc. and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Alamosa Holdings, Inc. ("Alamosa Holdings"). Alamosa Holdings was formed in July 2000. Alamosa Holdings is a holding company and through its subsidiaries provides wireless personal communications services, commonly referred to as PCS, in the Southwestern, Southeastern, Northwestern and Midwestern United States. Alamosa (Delaware) was formed in October 1999 under the name "Alamosa PCS Holdings, Inc." to operate as a holding company in anticipation of its initial public offering. On February 3, 2000, Alamosa (Delaware) completed its initial public offering. Immediately prior to the initial public offering, shares of Alamosa (Delaware) were exchanged for Alamosa PCS LLC's ("Alamosa LLC") membership interests, and Alamosa LLC became wholly-owned by Alamosa (Delaware). Alamosa (Delaware) and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to in these consolidated financial statements as the "Company."

On December 14, 2000, Alamosa (Delaware) formed a new holding company pursuant to Section 251(g) of the Delaware General Corporation Law. In that transaction, each share of Alamosa (Delaware) was converted into one share of the new holding company, and the former public company, which was renamed "Alamosa (Delaware), Inc." became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the new holding company, which was renamed "Alamosa PCS Holdings, Inc."

On February 14, 2001, Alamosa Holdings became the new public holding company of Alamosa PCS Holdings, Inc. ("Alamosa PCS Holdings") and its subsidiaries pursuant to a reorganization transaction in which a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alamosa Holdings was merged with and into Alamosa PCS Holdings. As a result of this reorganization, Alamosa PCS Holdings became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alamosa Holdings, and each share of Alamosa PCS Holdings common stock was converted into one share of Alamosa Holdings common stock.

On February 15, 2005, Alamosa Holdings completed its acquisition of AirGate PCS, Inc. ("AirGate"). AirGate is a PCS Affiliate of Sprint and has the right to provide wireless communications services under the Sprint brand name in its licensed territory, which includes most of the state of South Carolina, parts of North Carolina and the eastern Georgia cities of Augusta and Savannah. AirGate is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Alamosa Holdings and a

ALAMOSA (DELAWARE), INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
(dollars in thousands, except as noted)


	sister company to Alamosa (Delaware). The transaction was accounted for as a purchase and the results of operations of AirGate are included in the consolidated financial statements of Alamosa Holdings from the date of acquisition. The consolidated financial statements of Alamosa (Delaware) do not contain results of operations of AirGate.


	Alamosa Holdings common stock is quoted on Nasdaq under the symbol "APCS." Alamosa (Delaware) remains an issuer of outstanding public debt.


	See Note 15 for recent developments in the Company's relationship with Sprint.


3.	LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


	Since inception, the Company has financed its operations through capital contributions from owners, through debt financing and through proceeds generated from public offerings of common stock. The proceeds from these transactions have been used to fund the build-out of the Company's portion of the PCS network of Sprint, subscriber acquisition costs and working capital.

While the Company has incurred cumulative net losses since inception and incurred negative cash flows from operating activities in the past, the Company generated approximately $132 million and $57 million in cash flows from operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2004 and the six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively. Additionally, the Company reported net income of $24 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005.


	As of June 30, 2005, the Company had $55 million in cash and cash equivalents as well as $51 million in short-term investments, which the Company believes will be sufficient to fund expected capital expenditures and to cover its working capital and debt service requirements (including dividends on Alamosa Holdings preferred stock) for at least the next 12 months.

The Company's future liquidity will be dependent on a number of factors influencing its projections of operating cash flows, including those related to subscriber growth, average revenue per user, average monthly churn and cost per gross addition. Should actual results differ significantly from these assumptions, the Company's liquidity position could be adversely affected and it could be in a position that would require it to raise additional capital which may or may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all, and could have a material adverse effect on the Company's ability to achieve its intended business objectives.


4.	MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS

The Company entered into a purchase agreement with NTCH Colorado, Inc. ("NTCH") in February 2005 with respect to the purchase of certain assets in the Grand Junction, Colorado Basic Trading Area ("BTA"). NTCH operates a wireless telecommunication network in the Grand Junction, Colorado BTA under the brand name Cleartalk. In accordance with the purchase agreement, the Company will acquire subscribers and wireless tower space from NTCH and NTCH will eliminate the Cleartalk brand from the Grand Junction BTA. The commencement date of this agreement is September 1, 2005, at which time the purchase price will be fixed based on the number of Cleartalk subscribers that have been successfully converted to the Company's network. The agreement also provides for the Company to reimburse NTCH for lost earnings during the transition period, which is the period from the execution of the agreement in February 2005 through the commencement date of September 1, 2005.

The consideration to the seller will be in the form of a monthly cash payment for five years from the commencement date. This payment will be consideration for (i) subscribers successfully converted, (ii) rental payment for space on telecommunication towers owned by the seller and (iii) the elimination of the Cleartalk brand in the Grand Junction BTA. The purchase price will be allocated to the assets received based on relative fair value.

5.	STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and related interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options. No stock-based employee compensation cost related to option grants is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2005 or 2004, as all options granted by the Company had an exercise price equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying Alamosa Holdings common stock on the date of grant. Non-cash compensation expense reflected in the consolidated statements of operations for the six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 is related to the vesting of shares of restricted stock awarded to officers and directors and unrestricted shares of stock awarded to directors and is not related to the granting of stock options. The following table illustrates the effect on net loss if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to stock-based employee compensation:


	For the three months ended June 30,						For the six months ended June 30,
	2005			2004			2005			2004
Net income (loss) – as reported	$	15,977		$	1,036		$	23,592		$	(23,624	)
Add: stock-based employee compensation included in reported net income or loss, net of related tax		(47	)		20			556			40
Deduct: stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value method for all awards, net of related tax effects		(825	)		(1,590	)		(2,437	)		(2,769	)
Net income (loss) – pro forma	$	15,105		$	(534	)	$	21,711		$	(26,353	)


6.	ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE


	Customer accounts receivable — Customer accounts receivable represent amounts owed to the Company by subscribers for PCS service. Customer accounts receivable do not bear interest.

The amounts presented in the consolidated balance sheets are net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts of $6,274 and $5,728 at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. Estimates are used in determining the allowance for uncollectible accounts and are based on the Company's historical collection experience, current trends, credit policy, a percentage of accounts receivable by aging category and expectations of future bad debts based on current collection activities. In determining the allowance, the Company considers historical write-offs of its receivables as well as historical changes in its credit policies. The Company also takes into consideration current trends in the credit quality of its customer base.

ALAMOSA (DELAWARE), INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
(dollars in thousands, except as noted)


	Receivable from Sprint — Receivable from Sprint in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets consists of the following:


	June 30, 2005		December 31, 2004
Net roaming receivable	$	13,121	$	20,948
Accrued service revenue		2,920		2,910
Other amounts due from Sprint		1,244		951
	$	17,285	$	24,809

Net roaming receivable includes net travel revenue due from Sprint relative to PCS subscribers based outside of the Company's licensed territory who utilize the Company's portion of the PCS network of Sprint. The net roaming receivable is net of amounts owed to Sprint relative to the Company's subscribers who utilize the PCS network of Sprint outside of the Company's licensed territory. The receivable is recorded net due to a right of offset with respect to the receivable from/payable to Sprint with respect to travel and the fact that the activity has historically been settled on a net basis by Sprint. In addition, net roaming receivable also includes amounts due from Sprint, which have been collected from other PCS providers and wholesale customers for their customers' usage of the Company's portion of the PCS network of Sprint.


	Accrued service revenue represents the Company's estimate of airtime usage and other charges that have been earned but not billed at the end of the period.


	Other amounts due from Sprint at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 primarily consist of universal service fund recoveries and interconnect revenue receivable.


7.	PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT


	Property and equipment are stated net of accumulated depreciation and amortization of $285.5 million and $246.4 million at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.


8.	ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

For the Company's leased telecommunications facilities, primarily consisting of cell sites and switch site operating leases and operating leases for retail and office space, the Company has adopted SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations," as of January 1, 2003. The obligations associated with the Company's operating leases primarily relate to the restoration of the leased sites to specified conditions described in the respective lease agreements. For purposes of determining the amounts recorded as asset retirement obligations associated with the respective leases, the Company has estimated the costs by type of lease to be incurred upon the termination of the lease for restoration costs, as adjusted for expected inflation. These costs have been discounted back to the origination of the lease using an appropriate discount rate to determine the amount of obligation to be recorded upon the inception of the lease. The liability is accreted up to the expected settlement amount over the life of the lease using the effective interest method. A corresponding asset is recorded at the inception of the lease in the same amount as the asset retirement obligation. This asset is depreciated using the same method and life of similar network assets or leasehold improvements.

9.	GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

In connection with the acquisition of other PCS affiliates of Sprint, the Company allocated portions of the respective purchase prices to identifiable intangible assets consisting of (i) the value of the Sprint agreements in place at the acquired companies and (ii) the value of the subscriber base in place at the acquired companies. In addition to the identifiable intangibles, goodwill has been recorded in the amount by which the purchase price exceeded the fair value of the net assets acquired, including identified intangibles.


	The value assigned to the Sprint agreements is being amortized using the straight-line method over the remaining original terms of the agreements that were in place at the time of acquisition. The value assigned to the subscriber bases acquired is amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated life of the acquired subscribers.

In September 2004, the Company purchased the rights to additional territory from Sprint in connection with an amendment of one of its management agreements. The purchase price of $467 consisted of $14 allocated to purchased equipment and $453 allocated to the value of the Sprint agreement associated with the territory acquired. The intangible asset related to the Sprint agreement will be amortized over the remaining original term of the Sprint agreement at the time of purchase.

The Company accounts for goodwill and intangible assets in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." The provisions of SFAS No. 142 (i) prohibit the amortization of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, (ii) require that goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets be tested annually for impairment (and in interim periods if certain events occur indicating that the carrying value may be impaired) and (iii) require that reporting units be identified for the purpose of assessing potential future impairments of goodwill.

11.	INCOME TAXES

The Company's effective income tax rate is based on annual income (loss), statutory tax rates, tax planning opportunities, expected future taxable income and expected reversals of taxable temporary differences. The forecasted annual rate is then applied to the Company's quarterly operating results. The Company establishes a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Due to the Company's limited operating history and lack of positive taxable earnings, a valuation allowance was established during 2003 as deferred tax assets were expected to exceed deferred tax liabilities. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, the expected tax benefit related to net operating losses generated was fully offset by an increase in the valuation allowance and the effective tax rate was negative 2.7 percent. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2005 is 23 percent. The difference between the statutory rate of 35 percent and the projected rate is primarily due to a reduction of the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets.

12.	SPRINT AGREEMENTS

In accordance with the Company's affiliation agreements with Sprint, Sprint provides the Company various services including billing, customer care, collections and inventory logistics. In addition, Sprint bills the Company for various pass-through items such as commissions and rebates to national retail merchants, handset subsidies on handsets activated in the Company's territory but not sold by the Company and long distance charges.

In 2003, the Company executed amendments to its affiliation agreements with Sprint. The amendments, among other things, established fixed per subscriber costs for services that the Company purchases from Sprint through December 31, 2006 in the form of two new fees. The amendments created a new combined service bureau fee, which consolidates numerous fees that were previously settled separately, for back office services such as billing and customer care. The combined service bureau fee was initially set at $7.70 per average subscriber per month through December 31, 2006 and will be recorded in costs of services and operations in the consolidated statement of operations. The amendments also created a new per-activation fee, which consolidates numerous fees that were previously settled separately, for marketing services such as subscriber activation and handset logistics. The per-activation fee was initially calculated as a percentage of certain of Sprint PCS' selling and marketing expenses and was to be applied to the actual number of gross subscriber activations the Company experiences on a monthly basis through December 31, 2006. The per-activation fee will be recorded in selling and marketing expenses in the consolidated statement of operations. In March 2004, the Company exercised its rights under a most favored nations clause in the Sprint agreements to implement the terms of an agreement entered into between Sprint and another PCS Affiliate of Sprint. As a result, the Company entered into new amendments that increased the per-activation fee and decreased the price to the Company on purchases of handsets and accessories. Additionally, the March 2004 amendments increased the reciprocal roaming rate for data services from $0.0014 per Kb to $0.0020 per Kb and extended the fixed reciprocal rates for voice and data roaming through December 31, 2006. In June 2004, the Company further amended its agreements with Sprint to (i) reduce the combined service bureau fee from $7.70 to $7.00 per average subscriber per month and (ii) change the per-activation fee from a percentage of certain of Sprint PCS' selling and marketing expenses to a fixed rate of $23.00 per activation.

In addition to the new fees, the amendments changed the methodology used for settling cash received from subscribers. Historically, actual weekly cash receipts were passed through to the Company by Sprint based on a calculation of an estimate of the portion of that cash related to the Company's activity. Under the new methodology, the Company receives its portion of billed revenue (net of an 8% affiliation fee) less actual written off accounts in the month subsequent to billing regardless of when Sprint collects the cash from the subscriber. The provisions of the amendments became effective on December 1, 2003 and the Company has the right to evaluate subsequent amendments to the affiliation agreements of other similarly situated PCS Affiliates of Sprint and adopt the provisions of those amendments if the Company elects to do so.

	In connection with the billing services provided to the Company by Sprint, the Company relies on Sprint to provide information as to monthly billing activity relative to all subscriber revenues. In addition, Sprint provides the information utilized for the settlement of all roaming revenue.

The Company relies upon Sprint as a service provider to provide accurate information for the settlement of revenue and expense items. The Company makes estimates used in connection with the preparation of financial statements based on the financial and statistical information provided by Sprint. The Company assesses the accuracy of this information through analytic review and reliance on the service auditor report on Sprint's internal control processes prepared by Sprint's external service auditor.


13.	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Alamosa Holdings Preferred Stock Dividends — In November 2003, Alamosa Holdings issued shares of Series B Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock.

(dollars in thousands, except as noted)

The agreements provide for annual Alamosa Holdings option grants, contingent upon continued employment. The CEO's agreement provides for the grant of options to purchase 80,000 shares, 64,000 shares and 51,200 shares in 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively. The CFO's agreement provides for the grant of options to purchase 50,000 shares and 40,000 shares in 2005 and 2006, respectively. Additionally, the agreements provide for grants of Alamosa Holdings stock subject to the terms of the LTIP and that vest upon continued employment and in amounts determined based upon attainment of performance goals as set forth in certain Alamosa Holdings stock agreements. The target shares for Alamosa Holdings stock grants for the CEO are 60,000 in 2005, 48,000 in 2006, and 38,400 in 2007. The target shares for Alamosa Holdings stock grants for the CFO are 50,000 in 2005 and 40,000 in 2006. The actual award shares for Alamosa Holdings stock could range from zero to 200% of the target amount.

The agreements entitle the executives to $5,000 in term life insurance coverage, reimbursement for reasonable business expenses, a car allowance, reimbursement for approved club dues, reimbursement for an annual physical exam up to $5, and financial planning services up to $10 per annum. The executives may participate in any incentive, retirement, life, medical, disability and other benefit plans available to the Company's other executives with comparable responsibilities, subject to the terms of those programs.

Upon termination of employment by the Company without cause or by the executive for good reason, within thirty days after the date of termination, the Company will provide the terminated executive a lump-sum severance payment equal to the sum of: (i) one year's base salary; (ii) the higher of (x) the executive's target bonus or (y) the average annual bonus the executive earned over the two preceding years (the "Bonus"); and (iii) a pro-rated bonus for the year of termination. If such termination occurs within twelve months following a change in control, the terminated executive is instead entitled to three times his base salary and Bonus, plus a pro-rata bonus for the year of termination. In either case, the terminated executive will also receive continuing welfare and fringe benefits for one year following termination of his employment (two years if such termination occurs within twelve months following a change in control) and all restricted stock and options granted to the executive under the agreement will become vested and exercisable.

Alamosa Holdings entered into employment agreements on October 1, 2002, as amended as of January 1, 2005 with our Chief Integration Officer ("CIO"), Chief Technology Officer ("CTO"), and Senior Vice President of Corporate Finance ("SVP"). Alamosa Holdings entered into an employment agreement on December 1, 2002, as amended as of January 1, 2005 with our Chief Operating Officer ("COO"). The CIO's agreement will expire on December 31, 2005. The agreements with the CTO, SVP and COO will expire on December 31, 2006.

These agreements provide for annual grants of options to purchase 186,000 shares of Alamosa Holdings common stock during 2005 and 2006 and additionally provide for total Alamosa Holdings restricted stock grants among these executives in the target amount of 150,000 shares during 2005 and 2006. The actual award shares for restricted stock could range from zero to 200% of the target amount. Additionally, the agreements entitle the executives to be reimbursed for reasonable business expenses, car allowances, and reimbursement for annual physical exams in amounts as set forth in their agreements as well as other allowed perquisites. They may participate in any incentive, retirement, life, medical, disability and other benefit plans available to the Company's other executives with comparable responsibilities, subject to the terms of those programs.


	Upon termination of employment by the Company without cause or by the executive for good reason, within thirty days after the date of termination, the Company will provide the terminated

executive a lump-sum severance payment equal to the sum of: (i) one year's base salary; (ii) the executive's Bonus; and (iii) a pro-rated bonus for the year of termination. If such termination occurs within twelve months following a change in control, the terminated executive is instead entitled to receive two times base salary and Bonus, plus a pro-rata bonus for the year of termination. In either case, the terminated executive will also receive continuing welfare and fringe benefits for one year (two years if such termination occurs within twelve months following a change in control) and all restricted stock and options granted to the executive under the agreement will become vested and exercisable.


	The agreements contain non-compete and non-solicitation provisions effective for (i) two years following termination of employment by the Company without cause or by the executive for good reason within one year following a change in control or (ii) one year following termination of employment in any other circumstances.

The Alamosa Holdings restricted stock grants associated with the January 2005 employment agreement amendments are considered variable awards as the number of the shares that will ultimately be earned by the employee is not known until December 31 of each year during the term of the agreement (the measurement dates). In accordance with FAS 123, related compensation expense associated with the annual grants is measured based on the fair market value of the award at the measurement date and is recognized over the vesting period.

The Alamosa Holdings restricted stock granted in January 2005 under the terms of these employment agreement amendments vest 65% on March 1, 2006 and 35% on September 1, 2006. Until the measurement date has been reached compensation expense is adjusted for changes in the fair market value. The market value of the restricted stock grants was $2,468 on the date of grant and was recorded as unearned compensation, a component of shareholders' equity. At June 30, 2005, the gross unearned compensation was adjusted to $2,778 based on an increase in the fair market value of the award as of June 30, 2005. The non-cash compensation expense recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $1,066 resulting in a balance of $1,712 in unearned compensation related to these awards as of June 30, 2005.

Litigation — The Company has been named as a defendant in a number of purported securities class actions in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, arising out of its initial public offering (the "IPO"). Various underwriters of the IPO also are named as defendants in the actions. The action against the Company is one of more than 300 related class actions which have been consolidated and are pending in the same court. The complainants seek to recover damages and allege, among other things, that the registration statement and prospectus filed with the SEC for purposes of the IPO were false and misleading because they failed to disclose that the underwriters allegedly (i) solicited and received commissions from certain investors in exchange for allocating to them shares of common stock in connection with the IPO, and (ii) entered into agreements with their customers to allocate such stock to those customers in exchange for the customers agreeing to purchase additional Company shares in the aftermarket at pre-determined prices. On February 19, 2003, the Court granted motions by the Company and 115 other issuers to dismiss the claims under Rule 10b-5 of the Exchange Act which had been asserted against them. The Court denied the motions by the Company and virtually all of the other issuers to dismiss the claims asserted against them under Section 11 of the Securities Act. The Company maintains insurance coverage which may mitigate its exposure to loss in the event that this claim is not resolved in the Company's favor. On October 13, 2004, the Court granted the plaintiffs' motion for class certification in cases against six of the issuers (not including the Company), and stated that the order of certification gave "strong guidance, if

ALAMOSA (DELAWARE), INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
(dollars in thousands, except as noted)


	not dispositive effect" in the cases involving all other issuers. The underwriter defendants petitioned the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit to hear the appeal of the certification on an interlocutory basis, and on June 30, 2005, the Second Circuit granted their request. The Second Circuit has ordered the appeal to be scheduled and briefed in the normal course.

The issuers in the IPO cases, including the Company, have reached an agreement in principle with the plaintiffs to settle the claims asserted by the plaintiffs against them. Under the terms of the proposed settlement, the insurance carriers for the issuers will pay the plaintiffs the difference between $1 billion and all amounts which the plaintiffs recover from the underwriter defendants by way of settlement or judgment. Accordingly, no payment on behalf of the issuers under the proposed settlement will be made by the issuers themselves. The claims against the issuers will be dismissed, and the issuers and their officers and directors will receive releases from the plaintiffs. Under the terms of the proposed settlement, the issuers will also assign to plaintiffs certain claims which they may have against the underwriters arising out of the issuers' IPOs, and the issuers will also agree not to assert certain other claims which they may have against the underwriters, without plaintiffs' consent. The proposed settlement is subject to agreement among the parties on final settlement documents and the approval of the court. The court has issued a decision and order which preliminarily approves the settlement as to the issuers. The next step in the process is notice to the class of the proposed settlement and the scheduling of a hearing before the court to determine the fairness of the settlement. Neither of these events has occurred as of this date.

In November 2003, December 2003 and January 2004, multiple lawsuits were filed against Alamosa Holdings and David E. Sharbutt, its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer as well as Kendall W. Cowan, its Chief Financial Officer. Steven Richardson, Alamosa Holding's Chief Operating Officer, was also a named defendant in one of the lawsuits. Each claim is a purported class action filed on behalf of a putative class of persons who and/or entities that purchased Alamosa Holdings' securities between January 9, 2001 and June 13, 2002, inclusive, and seeks recovery of compensatory damages, fees and costs. Each lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, in either the Lubbock Division or the Dallas Division. On February 27, 2004, the lawsuits were consolidated into one action pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Lubbock Division. On March 4, 2004, the Court appointed the Massachusetts State Guaranteed Annuity Fund to serve as lead plaintiff and approved its selection of lead counsel for the consolidated action.

On May 18, 2004, the lead plaintiff filed a consolidated complaint. The consolidated complaint named three of the original defendants (Alamosa Holdings, David Sharbutt and Kendall Cowan), dropped one of the original defendants (Steven Richardson) and named two new defendants who are outside directors (Michael Roberts and Steven Roberts). The putative class period remained the same. The consolidated complaint alleged violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act. The consolidated complaint sought recovery of compensatory damages, fees, costs, recission or rescissory damages in connection with the Sections 11 and 15 claims, and injunctive relief and/or disgorgement in connection with defendants' alleged insider trading proceeds. At the end of the putative class period on June 13, 2002, Alamosa Holdings announced that its projection of net subscriber additions for the second quarter of 2002 would be less than previously projected. The consolidated complaint alleged, among other things, that

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
(dollars in thousands, except as noted)


	Alamosa Holdings made false and misleading statements about subscriber additions during the putative class period. The consolidated complaint also alleged that Alamosa Holding's financial statements were false and misleading because Alamosa Holdings improperly recognized revenue and failed to record adequate allowances for uncollectible receivables.


	On March 28, 2005, the Court granted the defendants' motion to dismiss and entered a judgment dismissing this action. On April 22, 2005, the lead plaintiff filed a notice of appeal from the dismissal order and judgment to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. On May 17, 2005, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals dismissed the appeal pursuant to the unopposed motion of lead plaintiff/appellant.

On July 8 and 15, 2004, two shareholder derivative suits, each asserting identical allegations, were filed in State District Court in Dallas County, Texas on behalf of Alamosa Holdings against certain of its officers and directors: David E. Sharbutt, Alamosa Holding's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Kendall W. Cowan, Alamosa Holding's Chief Financial Officer, as well as other current and former members of Alamosa Holding's board of directors, including Scotty Hart, Michael V. Roberts, Ray M. Clapp, Jr., Schuyler B. Marshall, Thomas F. Riley, Jr. Steven C. Roberts, Jimmy R. White, Thomas B. Hyde and Tom M. Phelps. The suits also name Alamosa Holdings as a nominal defendant. On August 27, 2004, the lawsuits were consolidated into one action pending in State District Court in Dallas County, Texas. On November 24, 2004, the plaintiffs filed a consolidated derivative petition. Based on allegations substantially similar to the federal shareholder action, the suits assert claims for defendants' alleged violations of state law, including breaches of fiduciary duty, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, waste of corporate assets and unjust enrichment that allegedly occurred between January 2001 and June 2002. The suits seek recovery of damages, fees, costs, equitable and/or injunctive remedies, and disgorgement of all profits, benefits and other compensation. The defendants filed a motion to stay this action pending the outcome of the federal shareholder action. In the alternative, the defendants filed special exceptions to the consolidated derivative petition requesting dismissal of the action. The plaintiffs served written discovery requests on defendants and in response, defendants filed a motion for protective order and to stay discovery.


	On April 27, 2005, the plaintiffs filed a notice of non-suit without prejudice to dismiss the defendants and all claims asserted in this action without prejudice.


	The Company is involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. The ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or liquidity.


14.	EFFECTS OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment," which is a revision of SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25. SFAS No. 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be valued at fair value on the date of grant, and to be expensed over the applicable vesting period. Pro forma disclosures of the income statement effects of share-based payments is no longer an alternative. SFAS No. 123(R) is effective for all stock-based awards granted on or after July 1, 2005. In addition, companies must also recognize compensation expense related to any awards that are not fully vested as of July 1, 2005. Compensation expense for the unvested awards will be measured based on the fair value of the awards previously calculated in developing the pro forma disclosures in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123. On April 14, 2005, the SEC announced the adoption of a new rule that amends the compliance dates for SFAS No. 123(R). The new rule allows registrants to

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
(dollars in thousands, except as noted)


	implement SFAS No. 123(R) at the beginning of their next fiscal year that begins after June 15, 2005. As a result, the Company will be required to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting SFAS No. 123(R) to its consolidated results of operations.

In June 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3." This Statement changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. This Statement applies to voluntary changes as well as those changes required by an accounting pronouncement if that pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions. This Statement requires retrospective application to prior periods' financial statements of changes in accounting principle as opposed to being shown as a cumulative adjustment in the period of change. The Statement is effective for all changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this standard is not expected to materially impact the Company.

On March 31, 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation No. ("FIN") 47, "Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations" which is an interpretation of SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations." FIN 47 clarifies that the recognition and measurement provisions of SFAS No. 143 apply to asset retirement obligations in which the timing and/or method of settlement may be conditional on a future event, including obligations to remediate asbestos at the end of a building's useful life and obligations to dispose of chemically-treated telephone poles at the end of their useful lives. FIN 47 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting FIN 47 to its consolidated results of operations.


15.	SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On December 15, 2004, Sprint Corporation ("Sprint") and Nextel Communications, Inc. ("Nextel") announced a proposed merger of their two companies. Nextel currently operates a wireless mobility communications network in certain territories in which the Company also provides digital wireless mobility communications network services under the Sprint or affiliated brands. Sprint and Nextel have announced that they intend to close the merger on August 12, 2005.

Based upon the terms of the exclusivity covenants contained in the management agreement between Sprint and AirGate PCS, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alamosa Holdings and a sister company to Alamosa (Delaware), Alamosa Holdings believes that Nextel's operation of a wireless mobility communications network in territories in which AirGate operates from and after the closing of the Sprint-Nextel merger will constitute a breach of the exclusivity covenants in the AirGate management agreement with Sprint. Moreover, based upon public statements and disclosures made by Sprint and Nextel following the announcement of their pending merger, the Company believes that actions that Sprint and Nextel intend to take in connection with the integration of their operations following completion of the merger may constitute a breach of the exclusivity and certain other provisions of the management agreements between Sprint and Alamosa (Delaware)'s operating subsidiaries.

Sprint-Nextel merger, and, on August 8, 2005, AirGate filed a lawsuit against Sprint, certain of its affiliates and Nextel in the Delaware Court of Chancery alleging, among other things, that following the completion of the pending merger, Sprint will breach the exclusivity covenants contained in its management agreement with AirGate and that Nextel unlawfully interfered with AirGate's exclusive rights under such agreement. The complaint seeks, among other things, an order directing Sprint and its affiliates to specifically perform their contractual obligations under their agreements with AirGate, an injunction preventing Sprint and Nextel from taking any action or entering into any agreement that would violate the exclusivity covenants contained in the agreements, a declaratory judgment declaring the rights, remedies and obligations of the parties under the agreements, and damages. The Company and its operating subsidiaries also may decide to pursue remedies against Sprint and Nextel, including bringing a lawsuit against Sprint and Nextel.

Under the Company's affiliation agreements with Sprint, an event of termination can be declared by the Company after a material breach by Sprint is not cured within the applicable grace period, which, without extension by the Company, could be as much as 180 days. If the Company has the right to terminate its management agreements because of an event of termination caused by Sprint, generally the Company may (i) require Sprint to purchase all of its operating assets used in connection with its portion of the PCS network of Sprint, (ii) in all areas in the Company's territory where Sprint is the licensee for 20 MHz or more of the spectrum on the date it terminates our management agreements, require Sprint to assign to the Company, subject to governmental approval, up to 10 MHz of licensed spectrum or (iii) choose not to terminate its management agreements and sue Sprint for damages or other relief or submit the matter to arbitration.

Should the breach not be cured by Sprint or a modification, waiver or extension not be granted by the Company, the election by the Company to terminate the affiliation agreements would constitute an event of default under each series of the Company's outstanding senior notes. Upon an event of default, the holders of the senior notes would have the right to demand payment and the Company may not have adequate liquidity to satisfy this obligation. At this point in time, management of the Company does not anticipate that an event of termination of the affiliation agreements will occur.


16.	GUARANTOR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Set forth below are consolidating financial statements of the issuer and guarantor subsidiaries and Alamosa Delaware Operations, LLC which is the Company's non-guarantor subsidiary (the "Non-Guarantor Subsidiary") of the senior notes as of June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 and for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. The guarantor subsidiaries are all 100% owned by the Company and the guarantees are full and unconditional. Separate financial statements of each guarantor subsidiary have not been provided because management has determined that they are not material to investors.

Alamosa Holdings is an additional guarantor with respect to the 12½% senior notes and the 13½% senior notes. Separate financial statements for Alamosa Holdings have not been provided as Alamosa Holdings is a holding company which does not independently generate operating revenue. The consolidated financial statements of Alamosa Holdings are included in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 2005.

Definitions of Operating Metrics

We discuss the following operating metrics relating to our business in this section:


•	ARPU, or average monthly revenue per user, is a measure used to determine the monthly subscriber revenue earned for subscribers based in our territory. This measure is calculated by dividing subscriber revenues in our consolidated statement of operations by our average daily subscribers during the period divided by the number of months in the period.

•

Average monthly churn is used to measure the rate at which subscribers based in our territory deactivate service on a voluntary or involuntary basis. We calculate average monthly churn based on the number of subscribers deactivated during the period (net of transfers out of our service area and those who deactivated within 30 days of activation) as a percentage of our average daily subscriber base during the period divided by the number of months during the period.


•	Licensed POPs represent the number of residents (usually expressed in millions) in our territory in which we have an exclusive right to provide wireless mobility communications services under the Sprint brand name. The number of residents located in our territory does not represent the number of wireless subscribers that we serve or expect to serve in our territory.


•	Covered POPs represent the number of residents (usually expressed in millions) covered by our portion of the PCS network of Sprint in our territory. The number of residents covered by our network does not represent the number of wireless subscribers that we serve or expect to serve in our territory.

General

As a PCS Affiliate of Sprint, we have the exclusive right to provide wireless mobility communications services under the Sprint brand name in our licensed territory. We own and are responsible for building, operating and managing the portion of the PCS network of Sprint located in our territory. We offer national plans designed by Sprint as well as local plans tailored to our market demographics. Our portion of the PCS network of Sprint is designed to offer a seamless connection with the 100% digital PCS nationwide wireless network of Sprint. We market Sprint PCS products and services through a number of distribution outlets located in our territory, including our own retail stores, major national distributors and local third party distributors. At June 30, 2005, we had total licensed POPs of over 15.8 million, covered POPs of approximately 13.3 million and total subscribers of approximately 1.0 million.

We recognize revenues from our subscribers for the provision of wireless telecommunications services, proceeds from the sales of handsets and accessories through channels controlled by us and fees from Sprint and other wireless service providers and resellers when their customers roam onto our portion of the PCS network of Sprint. Sprint retains 8% of all service revenue collected from our subscribers (not including products sales and roaming charges billed to our subscribers) and all fees collected from other wireless service providers and resellers when their customers use our portion of the PCS network of Sprint. We report the amount retained by Sprint as an operating expense. In addition, Sprint bills our subscribers for taxes, handset insurance, equipment and Universal Service Fund charges and other surcharges which we do not record. Sprint collects these amounts from the subscribers and remits them to the appropriate tax authority.

As part of our affiliation agreements with Sprint, we have contracted with Sprint to provide back office services such as customer activation, handset logistics, billing, customer care and network

monitoring services. We initially elected to delegate the performance of these services to Sprint to take advantage of their economies of scale, to accelerate our build-out and market launches and to lower our initial capital requirements. We continue to contract with Sprint for these services today and are obligated to continue using Sprint to provide these services through December 31, 2006. The cost for these services is primarily on a per-subscriber or per-transaction basis and is recorded as an operating expense.

Critical Accounting Policies

The fundamental objective of financial reporting is to provide useful information that allows a reader to comprehend the business activities of an entity. To aid in that understanding, we have identified our "critical accounting policies." These policies have the potential to have a more significant impact on our consolidated financial statements, either because of the significance of the financial statement item to which they relate or because they require judgment and estimation due to the uncertainty involved in measuring, at a specific point in time, events which are continuous in nature.

Allowance for doubtful accounts — Estimates are used in determining our allowance for doubtful accounts and are based on our historical collection experience, current trends, credit policy, a percentage of our accounts receivable by aging category and expectations of future bad debts based on current collection activities. In determining the allowance, we consider historical write-offs of our receivables as well as historical changes in our credit policies. We also look at current trends in the credit quality of our customer base.

Revenue recognition — We record equipment revenue for the sale of handsets and accessories to customers in our retail stores and to local resellers in our territories. We do not record equipment revenue on handsets and accessories purchased by our customers from national resellers or directly from Sprint. Our customers pay an activation fee when they initiate service. We allocate amounts charged to customers at the point of sale between the sale of handsets and other equipment and the sale of wireless telecommunications services in those transactions taking place in distribution channels that we directly control. Activation fees charged in transactions outside of our directly controlled distribution channels continue to be deferred and amortized over the average life of the subscriber base.

We recognize revenue from our customers as they use the service. Additionally, we provide a reduction of recorded revenue for billing adjustments and billing corrections.

The cost of handsets sold generally exceeds the retail sales price, as it is common in our industry to subsidize the price of handsets for competitive reasons. For handsets sold through channels controlled by Sprint that are activated by a subscriber in our territory, we reimburse Sprint for the amount of subsidy incurred by them in connection with the sale of these handsets. This reimbursement paid to Sprint is reflected in our selling and marketing expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

Accounting for goodwill and intangible assets — We have recorded certain intangible assets in connection with acquisitions, including both identifiable intangibles and goodwill. Identifiable intangibles consist of the Sprint agreements and the respective subscriber bases in place at the acquired companies at the time of acquisition. The intangible assets related to the Sprint agreements are being amortized on a straight line basis over the remaining original term of the underlying Sprint agreements. The subscriber base intangible asset is amortized on a straight line basis over the estimated life of the acquired subscribers.

Long-lived asset recovery — Long-lived assets, consisting primarily of property, equipment and intangibles, comprised approximately 77 percent of our total assets at June 30, 2005. Changes in technology or in our intended use of these assets may cause the estimated period of use or the value of these assets to change. In addition, changes in general industry conditions could cause the value of certain of these assets to change. We monitor the appropriateness of the estimated useful lives of these assets. Whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of these assets may not be recoverable, we review the respective assets for impairment. In performing this review, assets are grouped according to identifiable cash flow streams and the undiscounted cash flow over the life of the asset group is compared to the carrying value of the asset group. We have determined that we have one asset grouping related to cash flows generated by our subscriber base, which includes all of our assets. The

life of this asset group for purposes of these impairment tests is assumed to be ten years. Estimates and assumptions used in both estimating the useful life and evaluating potential impairment issues require a significant amount of judgment.

Operating leases — Operating leases and related leasehold improvement costs are accounted for based on the provisions of SFAS No. 13, "Accounting for Leases." We have a significant number of leases primarily associated with towers and other locations on which we install our network equipment. These leases are considered operating leases and the monthly rentals are expensed as incurred while any capital expenditures associated with preparing the site for our use are capitalized and depreciated. These capital expenditures are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or the economic life of the respective assets. Additionally, certain of these operating leases contain rent escalation provisions over the term of the respective leases. For those leases with escalation provisions, the periodic rental expense is recorded on a straight line basis over the lease term.

Income taxes — We account for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under this method, we utilize an asset and liability approach to accounting for income taxes, wherein deferred taxes are provided for book and tax basis differences for assets and liabilities. In the event differences exist between the book and tax basis of our assets and liabilities that result in deferred assets, an evaluation of the probability of being able to realize the future benefits indicated by such assets is made. A valuation allowance is provided for the portion of deferred tax assets for which there is sufficient uncertainty regarding our ability to recognize the benefits of those assets in future years.

On a quarterly basis, we evaluate the need for and adequacy of the valuation allowance based upon the expected realizability of our deferred tax assets and adjust the amount of such allowance, if necessary. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization are the latest forecast of future taxable income, available tax planning strategies and the future reversal of existing taxable temporary differences.

Reliance on the timeliness and accuracy of data received from Sprint — We place significant reliance on Sprint as a service provider in terms of the timeliness and accuracy of financial and statistical data related to customers based in our service territory that we receive on a periodic basis from Sprint. We make significant estimates in terms of revenue, cost of service, selling and marketing costs and the adequacy of our allowance for uncollectible accounts based on this data we receive from Sprint. We obtain assurance as to the accuracy of this data through analytic review and reliance on the service auditor report on Sprint's internal control processes prepared by Sprint's external service auditor. Inaccurate or incomplete data from Sprint could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flow.

Consolidated Results of Operations (dollars in thousands)

For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005 compared to the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004

Subscriber growth and key performance indicators — We had total subscribers of approximately 1,015,000 at June 30, 2005 compared to approximately 813,000 at June 30, 2004. This growth of approximately 202,000 subscribers represents a 25 percent increase year over year. The increase in subscriber growth is primarily attributable to an increase in our distribution channels, primarily in our own Sprint retail stores and branded dealers in our territory as well as overall growth in the wireless telecommunications industry.

Average monthly churn for the second quarter of 2005 was approximately 2.0 percent compared to approximately 2.1 percent for the second quarter of 2004. Increases in churn negatively impact our operations as we incur significant up front costs in acquiring customers.

Service revenues — Service revenues consist of revenues from our subscribers and roaming and wholesale revenue earned when subscribers from other carriers or resellers of PCS service use our portion of the PCS network of Sprint.

Subscriber revenue consists of payments received from our subscribers for monthly service under their service plans. Subscriber revenue also includes amortization of deferred activation fees and charges

for the use of various features including PCS Vision, the wireless web and voice activated dialing. Subscriber revenues were $163,871 for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 compared to $133,569 for the quarter ended June 30, 2004. This increase of 23 percent was primarily due to the increase in our subscriber base discussed above. Subscriber revenues were $318,902 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to $258,315 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. This increase of 23 percent was also primarily due to the increase in the subscriber base discussed above. Base ARPU (which does not include roaming revenue) remained relatively consistent in the second quarter of 2005 at $55 compared to $56 in the second quarter of 2004. Base ARPU in the first six months of 2005 was also relatively consistent at $55 compared to $56 in the first six months of 2004.

Roaming and wholesale revenue is comprised of revenue from Sprint and other PCS subscribers based outside of our territory who roam onto our portion of the PCS network of Sprint as well as revenue from resellers of PCS service whose subscribers use our portion of the PCS network of Sprint.

Roaming revenue was $54,098 for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 compared to $45,774 for the quarter ended June 30, 2004. This increase of 18 percent was due to a 22 percent increase in inbound roaming minutes to 676 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 compared to 553 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2004. Roaming revenue was $102,361 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to $86,412 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. This increase of 18 percent was primarily due to a 30 percent increase in inbound roaming minutes to 1.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to 1.0 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The percentage increase in revenue in both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005 was less than the percentage increase in minutes due to declining rates from carriers other than Sprint. We have a reciprocal roaming rate arrangement with Sprint pursuant to which per-minute charges for inbound and outbound roaming related to Sprint subscribers are identical. This rate is fixed at 5.8 cents per minute until December 31, 2006. We are currently a net receiver of roaming with Sprint, meaning that the minute volume from other Sprint subscribers roaming onto our network is greater than the minute volume from our subscribers roaming onto other portions of the PCS network of Sprint. The ratio of inbound to outbound Sprint roaming minutes was 1.17 to 1 for the six months ended June 30, 2005. We have experienced an increase in the volume of inbound roaming traffic from PCS providers other than Sprint. This traffic is settled at rates separately negotiated by Sprint on our behalf with the other PCS providers and these rates have declined in some cases during 2005 compared to 2004.

Wholesale revenue was $12,191 for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 compared to $5,931 for the quarter ended June 30, 2004. This increase of 106 percent was due to the addition of revenue related to subscribers of another PCS carrier with whom Sprint entered into an agreement to allow those subscribers to use the PCS network of Sprint on a wholesale basis subsequent to June 30, 2004. As a result, all minutes of use for those subscribers in their home areas as well as when roaming are on the PCS network of Sprint. Wholesale revenue was $24,534 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to $8,446 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. This increase of 190 percent was also due to the addition of wholesale subscribers as discussed above.

Product sales and cost of products sold — We record revenue from the sale of handsets and accessories, net of an allowance for returns, as product sales. Product sales revenue and cost of products sold are recorded for all products that are sold through our retail stores as well as those sold to our local indirect agents. The cost of handsets sold generally exceeds the retail sales price as we subsidize the price of handsets for competitive reasons. Sprint's handset return policy allows customers to return their handsets for a full refund within 14 days of purchase. When handsets are returned to us, we may be able to reissue the handsets to customers at little additional cost to us. However, when handsets are returned to Sprint for refurbishing, we may receive a credit from Sprint, which is less than the amount we originally paid for the handset.

Product sales revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was $8,715 compared to $8,055 for the quarter ended June 30, 2004. Cost of products sold for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was $22,255 compared to $16,379 for the quarter ended June 30, 2004. As such, the subsidy on handsets sold through our retail and local indirect channels was $13,540 in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 and $8,324 in the quarter ended June 30, 2004. Product sales revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $16,682

compared to $16,846 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Cost of products sold for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $46,406 compared to $36,162 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. As such, the subsidy on handsets sold through our retail and local indirect channels was $29,724 in the six months ended June 30, 2005 and $19,316 in the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in subsidies of $5,216 and $10,408 in the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively, is primarily due to an increase in the number of activations through our retail and local indirect channels of approximately 10,000 and 23,000 subscribers, respectively, and an increase in subsidies associated with handset upgrades of approximately $1,189 and $2,687, respectively.

Cost of service and operations — Cost of service and operations includes the costs of operating our portion of the PCS network of Sprint. These costs include items such as tower operating leases and maintenance as well as backhaul costs, which are costs associated with transporting wireless calls across our portion of the PCS network of Sprint to another carrier's network. In addition, cost of service and operations includes outbound roaming costs, long distance charges, the fees we pay to Sprint for our 8 percent affiliation fee, back office services such as billing and customer care, as well as our provision for estimated uncollectible accounts. Expenses of $110,615 in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 were approximately 21 percent higher than the $91,062 incurred in the quarter ended June 30, 2004. Expenses of $212,098 in the six months ended June 30, 2005 were approximately 20 percent higher than the $177,278 incurred in the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in expenses in the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 was due to the increased volume of traffic carried on our network due to the increase in our subscribers, as well as wholesale and resale customers. Total minutes of use on our network were 3.1 billion minutes in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 compared to 2.2 billion minutes in the quarter ended June 30, 2004 for an increase in traffic of 41 percent. Total minutes of use on our network were 5.9 billion minutes in the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to 4.2 billion minutes in the six months ended June 30, 2004 for an increase in traffic of 40 percent. The increase in costs was lower relative to the increase in traffic due to the leverage we experience in spreading our fixed network operating costs over a larger volume of activity.

Selling and marketing expenses — Selling and marketing expenses include advertising, promotion, sales commissions and expenses related to our distribution channels, including our retail store expenses. In addition, we reimburse Sprint for the subsidy on handsets sold through national retail stores due to the fact that these retailers purchase their handsets from Sprint. This subsidy is recorded as a selling and marketing expense. Total selling and marketing expenses of $33,618 in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 were 6 percent higher than the $31,839 incurred in the quarter ended June 30, 2004. Total selling and marketing expenses of $70,138 in the six months ended June 30, 2005 were 12 percent higher than the $62,832 incurred in the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase experienced during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005 is attributable to an increase in variable costs resulting from increases in gross activations of approximately 12,000 and 34,000 in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively, as compared to the three months and six months ended June 30, 2004, as well as an increase in subsidies on handsets sold through national retail stores to existing subscribers of approximately $1,520 and $2,428 in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively.

General and administrative expenses — General and administrative expenses include corporate costs and expenses such as administration and finance. General and administrative expenses of $3,509 in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 were 36 percent lower than the $5,508 incurred in the quarter ended June 30, 2004. General and administrative expenses of $9,611 in the six months ended June 30, 2005 were 13 percent lower than the $10,987 incurred in the six months ended June 30, 2004. The decrease in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005 has been the result of a reduced allocation of general and administrative expenses incurred at the consolidated Alamosa Holdings level due to the allocation of costs to AirGate.

Merger related expenses — Merger related expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2005 of $436 relates to incremental travel costs associated with our employees in connection with the acquisition of AirGate PCS, Inc. ("AirGate") by Alamosa Holdings that are not considered part of the cost of the transaction in the purchase price allocation. These costs were incurred by us due to the fact that Alamosa Holdings has no employees.

Depreciation and amortization — Depreciation and amortization includes depreciation of our property and equipment as well as amortization of intangibles. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the underlying assets and totaled $20,540 in the quarter ended June 30, 2005, which was 14 percent higher than the $17,965 recorded in the quarter ended June 30, 2004. Depreciation totaled $39,323 in the six months ended June 30, 2005, which was 9 percent higher than the $35,945 recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005 is due to the increase in depreciable costs as a result of our capital expenditures in the last six months of 2004 and the first six months of 2005.

Amortization expense relates to identifiable intangible assets we have recorded related to the agreements with Sprint and the customer base acquired in connection with purchase transactions. Amortization expense of $7,567 in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was comparable to the $7,558 in the quarter ended June 30, 2004. Amortization expense of $15,133 in the six months ended June 30, 2005 was 11 percent less than the $16,962 in the six months ended June 30, 2004. The decrease in the six months ended June 30, 2005 is due to the subscriber bases acquired in the quarter ended March 31, 2001, which became fully amortized during the quarter ended March 31, 2004.

Loss on disposal of property and equipment — We recorded a loss on disposal of property and equipment in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005 of $131 and $107, respectively, compared to a loss of $2,604 and $2,910 in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. Losses recorded in 2004 primarily relate to the abandonment of certain network equipment with a carrying value of approximately $2.1 million that had become technologically obsolete.

Non-cash compensation — Non-cash compensation expense of negative $47 in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was lower than the $20 in the quarter ended June 30, 2004. Non-cash compensation expense of $556 in the six months ended June 30, 2005 was significantly higher than the $40 in the six months ended June 30, 2004. The expense relates to vesting of restricted stock that had been awarded to certain of our officers. The increase in 2005 is due to the issuance of an additional 200,000 shares of restricted stock to our officers. The negative expense in the second quarter of 2005 is the result of the allocation of certain costs to AirGate in the first quarter of 2005.

Income from operations — Our operating income for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was $40,687 compared to $20,394 for the quarter ended June 30, 2004, representing an improvement of $20,293. Our operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $68,671 compared to $26,903 for the six months ended June 30, 2004, representing an improvement of $41,768. The improvement in operating income is primarily attributable to the leverage we have achieved in spreading our fixed costs over a larger base of subscribers.

Loss on debt extinguishment — The loss on debt extinguishment of $482 recorded in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005 includes a premium paid on early redemption of our 12 7/8% Senior Discount Notes in April 2005 of $411 and $71 in unamortized loan costs written off upon the redemption of these notes. The loss on debt extinguishment of $13,101 recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2004 relates to the repayment and termination of our senior secured credit facility in January 2004. The loss is comprised of $12,565 in net deferred loan fees related to the terminated credit facility plus the recognition of $536 in other comprehensive loss related to derivative instruments used for hedging interest rate risk on outstanding borrowings under the credit facility.

Interest and other income — Interest and other income represents amounts earned on the investment of excess cash. Income of $831 in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was significantly higher than the $219 earned in the quarter ended June 30, 2004. Income of $1,599 in the six months ended June 30, 2005 was significantly higher than the $386 earned in the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in interest and other income earned in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005 is primarily due to the fact that during the quarter ended June 30, 2004, the Board of Directors approved a change in the Company's investment policy to extend the allowable weighted average maturity of investments from the 90 days allowed previously to 270 days. As a result, excess cash has been invested in higher yielding instruments.

Interest expense — Interest expense for the quarters ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 included non-cash interest of $6,826 and $6,278, respectively, related to the accretion of senior discount notes, the

amortization of debt issuance costs and changes in the fair value of hedge instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment. The increase in total interest expense to $19,566 in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 from $18,952 in the quarter ended June 30, 2004 is due primarily to the issuance of the 8 1/2% Senior Notes in the first quarter of 2004 which were at a slightly higher interest rate than the secured credit facility that was terminated with the proceeds from the 8 1/2% Senior Notes. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 included non-cash interest of $13,625 and $12,550, respectively. The increase in total interest expense to $39,152 in the six months ended June 30, 2005 from $37,187 in the six months ended June 30, 2004 is also due to the increased level of debt after the debt exchange completed in November 2004 coupled with a lower interest rate on senior notes issued in January 2004.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes." As of December 31, 2000, the net deferred tax asset consisted primarily of temporary differences related to the treatment of organizational costs, unearned compensation, interest expense and net operating loss carry forwards. The net deferred tax asset was fully offset by a valuation allowance as of December 31, 2000 because there was sufficient uncertainty as to whether we would recognize the benefit of those deferred taxes in future periods. In connection with the acquisitions completed in the quarter ended March 31, 2001, we recorded significant deferred tax liabilities due to differences in the book and tax basis of the net assets acquired, particularly intangible assets.

The reversal of the timing differences which gave rise to these deferred tax liabilities allowed us to realize the benefit of timing differences which gave rise to the deferred tax asset. As a result, we released the valuation allowance during the second quarter of 2001. Prior to 2001, all deferred tax benefit had been fully offset by an increase in the valuation allowance such that there was no financial statement impact with respect to income taxes. With the reduction of the valuation allowance in 2001, we began to reflect a deferred tax benefit in our consolidated statement of operations. During 2003, we reinstated a valuation allowance to reflect the deferred tax assets at the amounts expected to be realized. The valuation allowance was further increased in 2004 to reflect the deferred tax assets at the amounts expected to be realized. The 2005 forecasted annual effective tax rate reflects a release of a portion of the valuation allowance based upon projected 2005 taxable income. On a quarterly basis, we evaluate the need for and adequacy of the valuation allowance based on the expected realizability of our deferred tax assets and adjust the amount of such allowance, if necessary. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization are the latest forecast of future taxable income, available tax planning strategies and the future reversal of existing taxable temporary differences.

Cash Flows

Operating activities — Operating cash flows decreased $4,641 in the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2004. This decrease is primarily due to advances to Alamosa Holdings of approximately $22,000 in connection with Alamosa Holdings' acquisition of AirGate in the first quarter of 2005.

Investing activities — Our investing cash flows were negative $48,453 in the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to negative $92,374 in the six months ended June 30, 2004. Cash purchases of property and equipment were $47,555 and $42,635 in the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Financing activities — Our financing cash flows decreased in the six months ended June 30, 2005 to negative $80,730 from positive $35,520 in the six months ended June 30, 2004. In the six months ended June 30, 2004, we received net proceeds from an offering of senior notes of approximately $242 million, which were used to permanently repay $200 million in borrowings outstanding under our senior secured credit facility. In the six months ended June 30, 2005, we made a capital distribution to Alamosa Holdings in the amount of $73,876 in connection with Alamosa Holdings' acquisition of AirGate.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since inception, we have financed our operations through capital contributions from our owners, debt financing and proceeds generated from public offerings of our common stock. The proceeds from these

transactions have been used to fund the build-out of our portion of the PCS network of Sprint, subscriber acquisition costs and working capital.

While we have incurred cumulative net losses since inception and incurred negative cash flows from operating activities in the past, we generated approximately $132 million and used approximately $57 million in cash flows from operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2004 and the six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively. Additionally, we reported net income of $29 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005.

As of June 30, 2005, we had $55 million of cash on hand as well as $51 million in short-term investments, which we believe will be sufficient to fund expected capital expenditures and to cover our working capital and debt service requirements (including dividends on Alamosa Holdings preferred stock) for at least the next 12 months.

Our future liquidity will be dependent on a number of factors influencing our projections of operating cash flows, including those related to subscriber growth, ARPU, average monthly churn and cost per gross addition. Should actual results differ significantly from these assumptions, our liquidity position could be adversely affected and we could be in a position that would require us to raise additional capital, which may or may not be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all, and could have a material adverse effect on our ability to achieve our intended business objectives.

Future Trends That May Affect Operating Results, Liquidity and Capital Resources

On December 15, 2004, Sprint Corporation ("Sprint") and Nextel Communications, Inc. ("Nextel") announced a proposed merger of their two companies. Nextel currently operates a wireless mobility communications network in certain territories in which we also provide digital wireless mobility communications network services under the Sprint or affiliated brands. Sprint and Nextel have announced that they intend to close the merger on August 12, 2005.

Based upon the terms of the exclusivity covenants contained in the management agreement between Sprint and AirGate PCS, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alamosa Holdings and a sister company to us, Alamosa Holdings believes that Nextel's operation of a wireless mobility communications network in territories in which AirGate operates from and after the closing of the Sprint-Nextel merger will constitute a breach of the exclusivity covenants in the AirGate management agreement with Sprint. Moreover, based upon public statements and disclosures made by Sprint and Nextel following the announcement of their pending merger, we believe that actions that Sprint and Nextel intend to take in connection with the integration of their operations following completion of the merger may constitute a breach of the exclusivity and certain other provisions of the management agreements between Sprint and our operating subsidiaries.

As previously disclosed, Alamosa Holdings had been engaged in discussions with Sprint in an attempt to reach a mutually acceptable resolution of the issues related to the Sprint-Nextel merger and its effect on the existing management agreements between Sprint and Alamosa Holdings' subsidiaries. However, Alamosa Holdings concluded that it was unlikely that it would be able to reach a mutually acceptable resolution with Sprint prior to the closing of the Sprint-Nextel merger, and, on August 8, 2005, AirGate filed a lawsuit against Sprint, certain of its affiliates and Nextel in the Delaware Court of Chancery alleging, among other things, that following the completion of the pending merger, Sprint will breach the exclusivity covenants contained in its management agreement with AirGate and that Nextel unlawfully interfered with AirGate's exclusive rights under such agreement. The complaint seeks, among other things, an order directing Sprint and its affiliates to specifically perform their contractual obligations under their agreements with AirGate, an injunction preventing Sprint and Nextel from taking any action or entering into any agreement that would violate the exclusivity covenants contained in the agreements, a declaratory judgment declaring the rights, remedies and obligations of the parties under the agreements, and damages. We, along with our operating subsidiaries, also may decide to pursue remedies against Sprint and Nextel, including bringing a lawsuit against Sprint and Nextel.

Under our affiliation agreements with Sprint, an event of termination can be declared by us after a material breach by Sprint is not cured within the applicable grace period, which, without extension by us,

could be as much as 180 days. If we have the right to terminate our management agreements because of an event of termination caused by Sprint, generally we may (i) require Sprint to purchase all of our operating assets used in connection with our portion of the PCS network of Sprint, (ii) in all areas in our territory where Sprint is the licensee for 20 MHz or more of the spectrum on the date it terminates our management agreements, require Sprint to assign to us, subject to governmental approval, up to 10 MHz of licensed spectrum or (iii) choose not to terminate our management agreements and sue Sprint for damages or other relief or submit the matter to arbitration.

Should the breach not be cured by Sprint or a modification, waiver or extension not be granted by us, the election by us to terminate the affiliation agreements would constitute an event of default under each series of our outstanding senior notes. Upon an event of default, the holders of the senior notes would have the right to demand payment and we may not have adequate liquidity to satisfy this obligation. At this point in time, we do not anticipate that an event of termination of the affiliation agreements will occur.

During 2002 and 2003, we experienced overall declining net subscriber growth compared to previous periods. This trend was attributable to increased competition and slowing aggregate subscriber growth in the wireless telecommunications industry. Although we have experienced improvement in subscriber growth in 2004 and through the first six months of 2005, we are continuing to incur net losses as we continue to add subscribers, which requires a significant up-front investment to acquire those subscribers. If net subscriber growth does not continue to improve, it will lengthen the amount of time it will take us to reach a sufficient number of subscribers to achieve profitability.

We may experience a higher average monthly churn rate than we are currently anticipating. Our average monthly churn for the second quarter of 2005 was 2.0 percent compared to 2.3 percent for the year ended December 31, 2004 and 2.7 percent for the year ended December 31, 2003. Although churn has declined over the past two years, we expect that in the near term churn could increase. If average monthly churn increases over the long-term, we would lose the cash flows attributable to those customers and have greater than projected losses.

We may incur significant handset subsidy costs for existing customers who upgrade to a new handset. As our customer base matures and technological advances in our services take place, more existing customers will begin to upgrade to new handsets to take advantage of these services. We have limited historical experience regarding the rate at which existing customers upgrade their handsets and if more customers upgrade than we are currently anticipating, it could have a material adverse impact on our earnings and cash flows.

We may not be able to access the credit or equity markets for additional capital if the liquidity discussed above is not sufficient for the cash needs of our business. We continually evaluate options for additional sources of capital to supplement our liquidity position and maintain maximum financial flexibility. If the need for additional capital arises due to our actual results differing significantly from our business plan or for any other reason, we may be unable to raise additional capital.
