WVT Communications Reports Third Quarter 2007 Results

WARWICK, NY--(Marketwire - November 15, 2007) - WVT Communications (NASDAQ: WWVY) (the "Company") announced today its financial results for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2007. There was continued improvement in net income for both periods. The Company increased its net income for the three-month period by 24% from $1,259,000 in 2006 to $1,557,000 in 2007 and by 15% from $3,162,000 in 2006 to $3,633,000 in 2007 for the nine-month period. If the gain of $611,000 (pre-tax) derived from the sale of an investment in 2006 is excluded from the net income for the first nine months of 2006, the Company's net income for the comparable nine-month period in 2007 increased by 32% over 2006.

Operating revenues decreased 3% for the three-month period from $6,336,000 in 2006 to $6,137,000 in 2007 and by 5% for the nine-month period, from $18,752,000 in 2006 to $17,906,000 in 2007. While revenues have continued to decline compared to last year, the rate of decline has been somewhat lessened. The Company introduced its Customer Winback Program and enhanced its "Triple Play" (bundle of wireline access, broadband internet and video services) with the re-introduction of WVT-branded wireless service into an "Opt 4 Savings with Grand Slam" offering. The Company also extended the footprint of its video services and added High Definition TV during the third quarter. Management believes that these initiatives, along with other new services, competitive pricing plans and advance technology deployment should further reduce or reverse the revenue decline.

As a result of aggressive cost controls and improved operating efficiencies, operating expenses decreased a significant 7% for the three-month period from $6,727,000 in 2006 to $6,280,000 in 2007 and by 13% for the nine-month period, from $21,639,000 in 2006 to $18,905,000 in 2007.

The Company has a long history in successful deployments of new technology. WVT Communications was one of the first rural telephone companies to install digital switching, to offer internet access as an Internet Service Provider (ISP), and to offer video service as an alternative to cable TV companies. The Company has continued to invest in its operations to gain enhanced operating efficiencies and to enable the introduction of new services to our customers. This year the Company will complete the installation of its enterprise resource planning system, which will support new services and provide operating efficiencies. During the third quarter, the Company replaced its core routers with new technology. The Company has continued to deploy capital to extend video services and higher speed broadband internet to a greater number of our customers.

Commenting on the third quarter results, Duane Albro, the President and CEO, said, "The continued improvement in net income is a significant accomplishment for WVT Communications and was principally due to the diligence of our employees in the execution of our business plan. The focus during the third quarter was to continue our aggressive control of expenses in order to generate a positive operating margin; lower our cost structure to enhance our competitiveness; and to position our infrastructure and products for the increased marketing and sales planned for the remainder of this year and into 2008. We remain firmly committed to creating value for our shareholders by the successful planning and deployment of these initiatives. We also remain committed to expansion of our CLEC activities through either building or acquiring the capability. We believe that implementing our plans will maximize the value of our cash flows. WVT Communications continues to demonstrate that it is a great company with great customers and great employees... and a solid plan for growth."
