-- Net Income Triples to $24 Million or $0.11 per Share Excluding Adjustments(1) --
-- Adjusted EBITDA(2) of $40 Million --
-- Revenue of $217 Million --

HOLMDEL, N.J., Nov. 2, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Vonage Holdings Corp. (NYSE: VG), a leading provider of communications services connecting people through broadband devices worldwide, announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2011.

The Company reported net income of $24 million or $0.11 per share excluding adjustments.(1) This is up from $8 million or $0.04 per share in the year ago quarter. Including a one-time adjustment of $8 million related to the Company's refinancing, GAAP net income was $16 million or $0.07 per share. This is up from a net loss of $55 million or $0.26 per share in the year ago quarter, which included $60 million in one-time charges associated with the Company's 2010 debt refinancing.

Vonage reported adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA")(2) of $40 million, up from $35 million in the year ago quarter and down from $44 million sequentially. Revenue totaled $217 million, an increase from $214 million the prior year and down from $218 million sequentially. Income from operations was $27 million, an increase from $20 million in the year ago quarter and down from $31 million sequentially.

Marc Lefar, Vonage Chief Executive Officer, said, "We are pleased to report that we tripled quarterly net income from the same quarter last year, and for the fourth consecutive quarter generated EBITDA of at least $40 million. Our recently expanded distribution channels contributed to higher customer additions and increased acquisition efficiency. Although gross line additions increased, churn was slightly higher than expected due to the full year impact of the "no contract" policy. We expect improvements over the next few months as we will no longer experience the churn spike customarily associated with contract expirations. We anticipate stable to lower churn in the fourth quarter."

"We are encouraged by customer response to our new mobile initiatives. Consumers are demonstrating a strong willingness to shift communications from landline calling to Vonage mobile applications. In addition, we are aggressively focused on international expansion and expect to announce our first partnership early next year."

Action Will Benefit Vonage and other Major Operators in the Long Term, Good for Consumers

HOLMDEL, N.J., Oct. 27, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Vonage (NYSE: VG) today released a statement from CEO Marc Lefar in response to the FCC's decision to overhaul Intercarrier Compensation (ICC) and the Universal Service Fund (USF). Vonage has supported this reform from the beginning and is pleased to see the FCC adopt some recommendations the company supported during the rulemaking process. Importantly, the shift of universal service funding to support the deployment of new broadband networks, rather than the build-out of traditional telephone networks, is a positive development for the VoIP community.

Lefar said, "Vonage is pleased with the FCC's decision to overhaul Intercarrier Compensation and the Universal Service Fund. In the short term, we expect the decision will be neutral to positive for Vonage's business, and in the long term, the decision will reduce our cost of telephony services by millions of dollars.

"Moreover, the FCC's order quickly eliminates intrastate access charges, which currently represent an antiquated fee structure and which Vonage has indirectly paid since the company's inception. We believe the FCC's actions will be fundamentally good for consumers by eventually lowering prices and expanding the availability of broadband - they help Vonage and other service providers better deliver the high-quality, feature-rich, low-cost broadband communications services they demand."

HOLMDEL, N.J., Oct. 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Vonage (NYSE: VG) today announced the availability of a free downloadable app for iPhones that enables one-touch international dialing using the recently announced Extensions service. A free Extensions app for Android devices was launched in September. These new Vonage Extensions apps allow customers to extend Vonage's signature unlimited(1) international calling plans to their smartphones using an easy-to-use app, providing even greater convenience.

The new apps let users dial international phone numbers directly through their existing contact list so there's no need for users to re-enter numbers or leave the app to make calls. The international calling apps are available for immediate download at the iTunes® App Store and Android Marketplace.

"Extensions delivers unmatched value and flexibility, because it lets customers link more phones to their Vonage service, creating a virtual family plan. The addition of Extensions apps gives customers with iPhones and Android devices an even simpler, more convenient way to take advantage of our international service," said Michael Tempora, SVP of Product Management for Vonage.
