RESTON, Va., March 18, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- NII Holdings, Inc. [NASDAQ: NIHD] today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2018. For the quarter, the Company generated consolidated operating revenues of $142 million, a consolidated operating loss of $10 million and consolidated adjusted OIBDA of $2 million. The Company's consolidated adjusted OIBDA excludes the impact of non-cash asset impairments, restructuring charges and other unusual items. For the full year, the Company generated consolidated operating revenues of $621 million, a consolidated operating loss of $42 million and consolidated adjusted OIBDA of $6 million. Capital expenditures were $24 million for the quarter and $64 million for the full year. The Company also announced today in a separate press release the entry into an agreement to sell Nextel Brazil, the Company's operating subsidiary in Brazil.

For the fourth quarter of 2018, Nextel Brazil reported 3G/4G net subscriber additions of 99,300 and 3G/4G churn of 2.62%, a 6-basis point decrease compared to the third quarter of 2018 and an 85-basis point decrease compared to the fourth quarter of 2017. Additionally, for the fourth quarter of 2018, Nextel Brazil's average monthly service revenue per subscriber (ARPU) was $14, cost per gross addition (CPGA) was $56 and cash cost per user (CCPU) was $12.

"Our results this quarter and for the full year 2018 reflect the continued execution of our strategy that focuses on growing our subscriber base by catering to value-minded customers in Sao Paulo and Rio that appreciate our promise on price, network performance and customer service," stated Roberto Rittes, Chief Executive Officer of Nextel Brazil. "Our success in positioning our business to compete well in Brazil is a direct result of the hard work, sacrifice and innovative spirit that our employees have delivered, and I want to thank them for their efforts."

At year-end, Nextel Brazil's sources of funding totaled $281 million, including $175 million of unrestricted cash and short-term investments and $106 million of cash held in escrow to secure indemnification obligations in connection with the sale of the Company's operations in Mexico.

Additional details regarding the Company's results, including a more detailed explanation on local currency operating metrics, are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission today.

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS AND YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2018 AND 2017
(UNAUDITED)

Consolidated OIBDA and Consolidated Adjusted OIBDA

Consolidated operating income before depreciation and amortization, or OIBDA, represents operating income before depreciation and amortization expense. Consolidated adjusted operating income before depreciation and amortization, or adjusted OIBDA, represents consolidated operating income before depreciation expense, amortization expense, material asset impairments, severance costs associated with publicly announced restructuring plans and other material non-recurring or unusual charges. Consolidated OIBDA and consolidated adjusted OIBDA are not measurements under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, may not be similar to consolidated OIBDA and consolidated adjusted OIBDA measures of other companies and should be considered in addition to, but not as substitutes for, the information contained in our statements of operations. We believe that consolidated OIBDA and consolidated adjusted OIBDA provide useful information to investors because they are indicators of our ongoing operating performance, especially in a capital intensive industry such as ours, since they exclude items that are not directly attributable to ongoing business operations. Consolidated OIBDA and consolidated adjusted OIBDA can be reconciled to our consolidated statements of operations as follows (in millions):

Cost per Gross Add (CPGA)

Cost per gross add, or CPGA, is an industry term that is calculated by dividing our selling, marketing and handset and accessory subsidy costs, excluding costs unrelated to initial customer acquisition, by our new subscribers during the period, or gross adds.  CPGA is not a measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, may not be similar to CPGA measures of other companies and should be considered in addition, but not as a substitute for, the information contained in our statements of operations.  We believe CPGA is a measure of the relative cost of customer acquisition.  CPGA can be calculated as follows (in millions, except CPGA):

Cash Cost per Handset/User

Cash cost per handset/unit, or CCPU, represents the sum of cost of service, general and administrative expenses and customer retention and other costs divided by average handsets in service during the period and divided by the number of months in the period. CCPU is not a measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, may not be similar to CCPU measures of other companies and should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information contained in our statements of operations.  We believe CCPU is a measure of the recurring costs we incur on a monthly basis to provide service to our subscribers. The CCPU calculation excludes material asset impairments, severance costs associated with publicly announced restructuring plans and other material non-recurring or unusual charges and is calculated as follows (in thousands, except CCPU):

Impact of Foreign Currency Fluctuations

The following table shows the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on certain financial measures for the three months and year ended December 31, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2018 by (i) adjusting the relevant measures for the three months and year ended December 31, 2017 to levels that would have resulted if the average foreign currency exchange rates for the three months and year ended December 31, 2017 were the same as the average foreign currency exchange rates that were in effect for the three months and year ended December 31, 2018; and (ii) comparing the actual and adjusted financial measures for the three months and year ended December 31, 2017 to the similar financial measures for the three months and year ended December 31, 2018 to show the percentage change in those measures before and after taking those adjustments into account. The amounts reflected in the following table for operating income before depreciation and amortization on a consolidated basis and segment earnings for Nextel Brazil, before the adjustments for changes in foreign currency exchange rates, are based on the calculations contained elsewhere in these non-GAAP reconciliations for the three months and year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. The average foreign currency exchange rates for each of the relevant currencies during each of the three months and year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 are included in the notes to the table below. The information reflected in the following table is not a measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information contained in our statements of operations. We believe that these calculations provide useful information concerning our relative performance for the three months and year ended December 31, 2018 compared to the same periods in 2017 by removing the impact of the significant difference in the average foreign currency exchange rates in effect for those periods.

The amounts included under the columns "4Q 2017 Normalized" and "YTD 2017 Normalized" reflect the amount determined by adding the "4Q 2017 Adjustment" and "YTD 2017 Adjustment" amounts calculated as described in the preceding sentence to the "4Q 2017 Actual" and "YTD 2017 Actual" amounts and reflect the impact of the year-over-year change in the average foreign currency exchange rates on each of the financial measures for the three months and year ended December 31, 2018. The average foreign currency exchange rates for each of the relevant currencies during the three months and year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 for purposes of these calculations were as follows:

Additional Information

Average Monthly Revenue Per Handset/Unit in Service (ARPU)

Average monthly revenue per subscriber unit in service, or ARPU, is an industry term that measures service revenues, which we refer to as subscriber revenues, per period from our customers divided by the weighted average number of subscriber units in commercial service during that period.  ARPU is not a measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, may not be similar to ARPU measures of other companies and should be considered in addition, but not as a substitute for, the information contained in our statements of operations.  We believe that ARPU provides useful information concerning the appeal of our rate plans and service offerings and our performance in attracting and retaining high value customers.  Other revenue includes revenues for such services as roaming, handset maintenance, cancellation fees, analog and other.  ARPU can be calculated as follows (in millions, except ARPU):
