ALLTEL CORPORATIONNOTES TO RECONCILIATIONS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS UNDER GAAP TO RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FROM CURRENT BUSINESSES (NON-GAAP)

As the Company evaluates segment performance based on segment income, which is computed as revenues and sales less operating expenses, the special cash dividend, gain on the exchange or disposal of assets, debt prepayment costs, costs associated with Hurricane Katrina, the effects of the change in accounting for operating leases and conditional asset retirement obligations and restructuring and other charges have not been allocated to the business segments. In addition, none of the non-operating items such as equity earnings in unconsolidated partnerships, minority interest expense, other income, net, interest expense and income taxes have been allocated to the segments.

(A) Alltel incurred $9.5 million of incremental costs related to Hurricane Katrina consisting of increased system maintenance costs to restore network facilities and additional losses from bad debts. (See Note D).

(B) The Company incurred $2.1 million of integration expenses related to its acquisition completed on August 1, 2005 of Western Wireless Corporation (“Western Wireless”). These expenses primarily consisted of system conversion costs. In addition, Alltel incurred $5.0 million of integration expenses related to the exchange of certain wireless assets with Cingular Wireless LLC (“Cingular”) completed during the second and third quarters of 2005. The Company also incurred $1.6 million of integration expenses related to its acquisition of Public Service Cellular Inc. (“PS Cellular”) completed on February 28, 2005. The integration expenses related to the Cingular and PS Cellular acquisitions consisted of handset subsidies incurred to migrate the acquired customer base to CDMA handsets. The Company also recorded a $0.2 million reduction in the liabilities associated with the wireline restructuring activities initiated during the third quarter of 2005. (See Note E).

(C) On December 9, 2005, Alltel announced that it would spin off its wireline telecommunications business to its stockholders and merge it with Valor Communications Group, Inc. In connection with the spin-off and merger, Alltel incurred $31.3 million of incremental costs principally consisting of investment banker, audit and legal fees.

(D) Alltel incurred $10.2 million of incremental costs related to Hurricane Katrina consisting of increased long distance and roaming expenses due to providing these services to affected customers at no charge, system maintenance costs to restore network facilities and additional losses from bad debts. These incremental costs also included Company donations to support the hurricane relief efforts. These incremental expenses were partially offset by $5.0 million of insurance proceeds received to date by Alltel.

(E) The Company incurred $2.4 million of integration expenses related to its acquisition completed on August 1, 2005 of Western Wireless Corporation ("Western Wireless"). These expenses primarily consisted of system conversion and relocation costs. In addition, the Company incurred $11.9 million of integration expenses related to the exchange of certain wireless assets with Cingular Wireless LLC ("Cingular") completed during the second and third quarters of 2005. These expenses consisted of handset subsidies incurred to migrate the acquired customer base to CDMA handsets. The Company also incurred $4.6 million in restructuring charges associated with its wireline operations. These charges consisted of severance and employee benefit costs related to a planned workforce reduction.

(F) Primarily due to certain minority partners' right-of-first-refusal, three of the wireless partnership interests to be exchanged between Alltel and Cingular, as discussed in Note H below, were not completed until July 29, 2005. As a result of completing the exchange transaction, Alltel recorded an additional pretax gain of $30.5 million.

(G) On April 15, 2005, Alltel and Cingular Wireless LLC completed the exchange of certain wireless assets. In connection with this transaction, Alltel recorded a pretax gain of $127.5 million. On April 6, 2005, Alltel recorded a pretax gain of $75.8 million from the sale of all of its shares of Fidelity National common stock. In addition, on April 8, 2005, Alltel retired all of its issued and outstanding 7.50 percent senior notes due March 1, 2006, representing an aggregate principal amount of $450.0 million. Concurrent with the debt retirement, Alltel also terminated the related pay variable/receive fixed, interest rate swap agreement that had been designated as a fair value hedge against the $450.0 million senior notes. In connection with the early termination of the debt and interest rate swap agreement, Alltel incurred net pretax termination fees of approximately $15.0 million.

(H) Effective January 1, 2005, Alltel changed its accounting for operating leases with scheduled rent increases. Certain of the Company's operating lease agreements for cell sites and for office and retail locations include scheduled rent escalations during the initial lease term and/or during succeeding optional renewal periods. Previously, the Company had not recognized the scheduled increases in rent expense on a straight-line basis in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 13, "Accounting for Leases" and Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Technical Bulletin No. 85-3, "Accounting for Operating Leases with Scheduled Rent Increases". The effects of this change, which are included in corporate expenses, were not material to the Company's previously reported consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

(I) On March 9, 2005, Fidelity National declared a special $10 per share cash dividend to Fidelity National stockholders. The special cash dividend was received by Alltel on March 28, 2005.

(J) The Company recorded a $0.9 million reduction in the liabilities associated with the restructuring efforts initiated in the first quarter of 2004 (see Note K), consisting of $0.7 million in employee relocation expenses and $0.2 million in severance and employee benefit costs.

(K) The Company announced its plans to reorganize its operating structure and exit its competitive local exchange carrier operations in the Jacksonville, Florida market. In connection with these activities, the Company recorded a restructuring charge of $29.3 million consisting of severance and employee benefit costs related to a planned workforce reduction, employee relocation costs, lease termination and other restructuring-related costs. The Company also recorded a $2.3 million reduction in the liabilities associated with various restructuring activities initiated prior to 2003. In addition, the Company recorded a write-down of $24.8 million in the carrying value of certain corporate and regional facilities to fair value in conjunction with the proposed leasing or sale of those facilities.

(L) The Company recorded a pretax gain of $31.0 million from the sale of certain assets and related liabilities, including selected customer contracts and capitalized software development costs, associated with the Company's telecommunications information services operations.

(M) These charges included severance and employee benefit costs of $8.5 million related to a planned workforce reduction, primarily resulting from the closing of certain call center locations. The Company also recorded a $2.7 million reduction in the liabilities associated with various restructuring activities initiated prior to 2003, primarily resulting from differences between estimated and actual severance costs paid in completing the previous planned workforce reductions. Alltel also wrote off $13.2 million of certain capitalized software development costs that had no alternative future use or functionality.

(N) Alltel recorded pretax write-downs totaling $6.0 million to reflect other-than-temporary declines in the fair value of certain investments in unconsolidated limited partnerships. In addition, the Company retired, prior to its stated maturity dates, $249.1 million of long-term debt, representing all of the long-term debt outstanding under the Rural Utilities Services, Rural Telephone Bank and Federal Financing Bank programs. In connection with the early retirement of the debt, the Company incurred pretax termination fees of $7.1 million.

(O) Tax-related effects of the items discussed in the Notes A - N above.

(P) Eliminates the effects of discontinued operations. On August 1, 2005, Alltel completed its acquisition of Western Wireless. As a condition of receiving approval for the acquisition from the Department of Justice and the Federal Communications Commission, Alltel agreed to divest certain wireless operations of Western Wireless in 16 markets in Arkansas, Kansas and Nebraska. In December 2005, Alltel completed an exchange of wireless properties with United States Cellular Corporation that included a substantial portion of the divestiture requirements related to the merger. During the third and fourth quarters of 2005, Alltel completed the sale of international operations in Georgia, Ghana and Ireland acquired from Western Wireless. Alltel also has pending definitive agreements to sell the international operations in Austria, Bolivia and Haiti and is actively pursuing the disposition of the remaining international operations acquired from Western Wireless. As a result, the acquired international operations and interests of Western Wireless and the 16 markets to be divested in Arkansas, Kansas and Nebraska have been classified as discontinued operations and assets held for sale in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

(Q) During the third quarter of 2004, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) completed its fieldwork related to the audits of the Company’s consolidated federal income tax returns for the fiscal years 1997 through 2001. As a result of the IRS completing this phase of their audits, Alltel reassessed its income tax contingency reserves related to the periods under examination. Based upon this reassessment, Alltel recorded a $129.3 million reduction in its income tax contingency reserves. The corresponding effects of the reversal of these tax contingencies resulted in a reduction in goodwill of $94.5 million and a reduction in income tax expense associated with continuing operations of $19.7 million. In addition, $15.1 million of the income tax contingency reserves reversed related to the financial services division that was sold to Fidelity National Financial Inc. (“Fidelity National”) on April 1, 2003. (See Note R.) Pursuant to the terms of the sale agreement, Alltel retained, as of the date of sale, all income tax liabilities related to the sold operations and agreed to indemnify

Fidelity National from any future tax liability imposed on the financial services division for periods prior to the date of sale. The adjustment of the tax contingency reserves related to the disposed financial services division has been reported as discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004. Discontinued operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004 also included a tax benefit of $4.4 million attributable to a foreign tax credit carryback recognized as a result of the IRS audits.

(R) Eliminates the effects of discontinued operations, including the gain realized upon the sale of such operations. On April 1, 2003, Alltel completed the sale of the financial services division of its information services subsidiary, Alltel Information Services, Inc., to Fidelity National, for $1.05 billion received as $775.0 million in cash and $275.0 million in Fidelity National common stock.

(S) Represents the cumulative effect of the change in accounting resulting from the Company's adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations". In accordance with federal and state regulations, depreciation expense for Alltel’s wireline operations historically included an additional provision for cost of removal. For Alltel's wireline operations in Kentucky and Nebraska not subject to SFAS No. 71, “Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation”, effective with the adoption of SFAS No. 143, the Company ceased recognition of the cost of removal provision in depreciation expense and eliminated the cumulative cost of removal included in accumulated depreciation because it did not meet the recognition and measurement principles of an asset retirement obligation under SFAS No. 143. As a result of a Federal Communications Commission ruling, Alltel continues to record a regulatory liability for cost of removal for its wireline subsidiaries that follow the accounting prescribed by SFAS No. 71.

(T) Represents the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle resulting from the Company's adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations" (“FIN 47”). The Company evaluated the effects of FIN 47 on its operations and determined that, for certain buildings containing asbestos, Alltel is legally obligated to remediate the asbestos if the Company were to abandon, sell or otherwise dispose of the buildings. In addition, for its acquired Kentucky and Nebraska wireline operations not subject to SFAS No. 71, “Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation", the Company is legally obligated to properly dispose of its chemically-treated telephone poles at the time they are removed from service. In accordance with federal and state regulations, depreciation expense for the Company’s wireline operations that follow the accounting prescribed by SFAS No. 71 have historically included an additional provision for cost of removal, and accordingly, the adoption of FIN 47 had no impact to these operations.
