"2009 was a notable year of firsts for SIRIUS XM: The first full year of positive pro forma adjusted income from operations and the first full year of positive free cash flow in the company's history," said Mel Karmazin, the Chief Executive Officer of SIRIUS XM. "We demonstrated considerable operating momentum in the fourth quarter – the addition of over 250,000 subscribers, ARPU growth, revenue growth, improved SAC, and continued operating cost reductions. These gains position us to deliver on our 2010 guidance."
In the fourth quarter 2009, the Company's pro forma average revenue per subscriber (ARPU) grew to $10.92 from $10.65 in the fourth quarter of 2008. The average self-pay monthly customer churn rate was 2.0% in the fourth quarter of 2009, as compared with 1.8% in the fourth quarter of 2008.
Fourth quarter of 2009 pro forma revenue was $684 million, up 6% from fourth quarter 2008 pro forma revenue of $644 million. Subscriber acquisition costs (SAC) per gross subscriber addition was $64 in the fourth quarter of 2009, an improvement of 9% over the $70 in SAC per gross subscriber addition in the fourth quarter of 2008.
In the fourth quarter of 2009, SIRIUS XM achieved pro forma adjusted income from operations of $115 million as compared with $32 million in the fourth quarter of 2008. Free cash flow in the quarter of 2009 was $150 million compared to $26 million in the fourth quarter of 2008. The pro forma fourth quarter 2009 net loss was ($25) million as compared with ($248) million in the fourth quarter of 2008. On a GAAP basis, the fourth quarter 2009 net income was $14 million compared to a loss of ($246) million in the 2008 quarter.
"The $599 million improvement in full-year pro forma adjusted income from operations illustrates the strength of our business model and also demonstrates the economic benefit generated by the SIRIUS-XM merger in July 2008," said David Frear, the Company's Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "With over $380 million in cash, positive free cash flow and continued growth in adjusted income from operations, our financial condition has never been stronger," Frear added.
2010 OUTLOOK
Looking to 2010, the company expects full-year revenue of over $2.7 billion. Free cash flow is expected to remain positive in 2010.
"We expect to add over 500,000 net subscribers this year, exceeding the company's previous subscriber high of 19 million at the end of 2008. We also expect this year's adjusted income from operations to be up approximately 20% to $550 million," said Karmazin.

PRO FORMA RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The discussion of operating results below is based upon pro forma comparisons as if the merger between SIRIUS and XM occurred on January 1, 2007 and excludes the effects of stock-based compensation and purchase accounting adjustments associated with the merger between SIRIUS and XM.
FOURTH QUARTER 2009 VERSUS FOURTH QUARTER 2008
For the fourth quarter of 2009, SIRIUS XM recognized total revenue of $684 million compared to $644 million for the fourth quarter 2008. This 6%, or $40 million, increase in revenue was driven by the U.S. Music Royalty Fee introduced in the third quarter of 2009, the sale of "Best of" programming, and rate increases to the company's multi-subscription and Internet packages.
Total ARPU for the three months ended December 31, 2009 was $10.92, compared to $10.65 for the three months ended December 31, 2008. The increase was driven mainly by the sale of "Best of" programming and increased rates on the company's multi-subscription and Internet packages, partially offset by a decline in net advertising revenue per average subscriber.
In the fourth quarter of 2009, the company maintained positive pro forma adjusted income from operations of $115 million compared to a pro forma adjusted income from operations of $32 million for the fourth quarter of 2008 (refer to the reconciliation table of net loss to adjusted income (loss) from operations). The improvement was driven by the increase in total revenue of $40 million and a $44 million, or 7%, decrease in expenses included in pro forma adjusted income from operations.
Satellite and transmission costs increased 10%, or $2 million, in the three months ended December 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 due to non-cash repeater lease charges and an increase in in-orbit insurance expense, partially offset by reductions in repeater maintenance and personnel costs.
Programming and content costs decreased 12%, or $12 million, in the three months ended December 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 due mainly to reductions in personnel and on-air talent costs as well as savings on certain content arrangements.
Revenue share and royalties increased 1%, or $2 million, in the three months ended December 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008, due mainly to the increase in the company's revenues and the statutory royalty rate for the performance of sound recordings offset in part by a reduction in the revenue share rate paid to an automaker.
Customer service and billing costs decreased 12%, or $8 million, in the three months ended December 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 due primarily to reductions in personnel and customer call center expenses.
Cost of equipment decreased 33%, or $6 million, in the three months ended December 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 as a result of a decrease in the company's direct to customer sales and lower inventory write-downs.
Sales and marketing costs decreased 2%, or $2 million, and decreased as a percentage of revenue to 12% from 13% in the three months ended December 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008. The decrease in Sales and marketing costs was due to reduced personnel costs and third party distribution support expenses.
Subscriber acquisition costs decreased 4%, or $5 million, and decreased as a percentage of revenue to 19% from 21% in the three months ended December 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008. SAC per gross addition declined by 9%, to $64, from $70 in the year ago period. This improvement in the 2009 quarter was driven by lower OEM subsidies, chipset costs and aftermarket acquisition costs, partially offset by higher aftermarket inventory related charges as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2008. Subscriber acquisition costs also decreased despite the 10% increase in gross additions during the three months ended December 31, 2009 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2008.
General and administrative costs decreased 24%, or $12 million, mainly due to the absence of certain legal and regulatory charges incurred in 2008 and lower personnel costs.
Engineering, design and development costs decreased 23%, or $2 million, in the three months ended December 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 due to lower costs associated with development, tooling, and testing of radios as well as lower personnel costs.
Restructuring, impairments and related costs decreased 11% during the 2009 quarter due to fewer restructuring charges associated with the merger with XM.
Other expenses decreased 65%, or $132 million, in the three months ended December 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008. The reduction was largely the product of the decrease in loss on extinguishment of debt and credit facilities of $94 million, an increase in gain on investments of $29 million, and $7 million increase in other income (expense). The decrease in loss on the extinguishment of debt and credit facilities was driven mainly by the exchange of certain of the company's 2½% Convertible Notes due 2009 into shares of the company's common stock in December 2008. The increase in gain on investments was attributable to an impairment charge recorded in 2008 on XM's carrying value of its investments with no such impairment recorded in the fourth quarter of 2009 and payments received from Canadian Satellite Radio Inc. in excess of XM's carrying value of its investments.
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009 VERSUS YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2009, SIRIUS XM recognized total revenue of $2,527 million compared with $2,437 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008. This 4%, or $90 million, increase in revenue was primarily driven by the U.S. Music Royalty Fee introduced in the third quarter of 2009, the sale of "Best of" programming, and rate increases to the company's multi-subscription and Internet packages.
ARPU for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 was $10.73, compared to $10.56 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008. The increase was driven mainly by the sale of "Best of" programming, increased rates on the company's multi-subscription packages and revenues earned on its Internet packages, partially offset by a decline in net advertising revenue per average subscriber.
The company's pro forma adjusted income from operations increased $599 million to $463 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 from a loss of ($136) million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 (refer to the reconciliation table of net loss to adjusted income (loss) from operations). This increase was driven by a 4%, or $90 million, increase in revenue and a 20%, or $509 million, decrease in expenses included in pro forma adjusted income (loss) from operations.
Satellite and transmission costs decreased 17%, or $17 million, in the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 compared to 2008 due to reductions in repeater maintenance costs, non-cash repeater charges, and personnel costs.
Programming and content costs decreased 17%, or $76 million, in the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 compared to 2008, due to a one-time payment recognized in 2008 to a programming provider upon completion of the merger with XM, reductions in personnel and on-air talent costs as well as savings on certain content arrangements.
Revenue share and royalties increased 2%, or $9 million, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 compared to 2008, due to the increase in the company's revenues and the statutory royalty rate for the performance of sound recordings offset in part by a reduction in the revenue share rate paid to an automaker.
Customer service and billing costs decreased 5%, or $12 million, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 compared to 2008 due to scale efficiencies.
Cost of equipment decreased 39%, or $26 million, in the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 compared to 2008 as a result of a decrease in the company's direct to customer sales, lower inventory write-downs and lower product and component sales.
Sales and marketing costs decreased 32%, or $110 million, and decreased as a percentage of revenue to 9% from 14% in the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 compared to 2008. The decrease was due to reduced advertising and cooperative marketing spend as well as reductions to personnel costs and third party distribution support expenses.
Subscriber acquisition costs decreased 30%, or $175 million, and decreased as a percentage of revenue to 16% from 24% in the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 compared to 2008. This decrease was driven by a 15% improvement in SAC, as adjusted, per gross addition due to fewer OEM installations relative to gross subscriber additions, decreased production of certain radios and lower aftermarket inventory reserves in the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2008. Subscriber acquisition costs also decreased as a result of the 19% decline in gross additions during the twelve months ended December 31, 2009.
General and administrative costs decreased 32%, or $85 million, mainly due to the absence of certain legal and regulatory charges incurred in 2008 and lower personnel costs.
Engineering, design and development costs decreased 31%, or $16 million, in the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 compared to 2008, due to lower costs associated with development, tooling, and testing of radios as well as lower personnel costs.
Restructuring, impairments and related costs increased $22 million mainly due to a loss of $24 million on capitalized installment payments, offset partially by a decrease in personnel related restructuring costs.
Other expenses increased 53%, or $202 million, in the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 compared to 2008 driven mainly by the increase in loss on extinguishment of debt and credit facilities of $170 million, and an increase in interest expense of $89 million, offset by an increase of $45 million in gain on investments and an increase in other income of $19 million. The increase in loss on the extinguishment of debt and credit facilities was driven by the full repayment of SIRIUS' Credit Agreement with Liberty Media and XM's Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and its Second-Lien Credit Agreement. Interest expense increased due primarily to the issuance of XM's 13% Senior Notes due 2013 and the 7% Exchangeable Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 in the fourth quarter of 2008. The increase in gain on investments was attributable to a higher impairment charge recorded in 2008 on XM's carrying value of its investments than recorded in 2009, payments received from Canadian Satellite Radio Inc. in excess of XM's carrying value of its investment, partially offset by the company's share of SIRIUS Canada's and XM Canada's net losses for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 compared to 2008.

FOOTNOTES TO PRESS RELEASE AND TABLES FOR NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(1) Average self-pay monthly churn represents the monthly average of
self-pay deactivations by the quarter divided by the average self-pay
subscriber balance for the quarter.
(2) We measure the percentage of vehicle owners and lessees that receive
our service and convert to self-paying after the initial promotion
period. We refer to this as the "conversion rate." At the time of
sale, vehicle owners and lessees generally receive between three and
twelve month trial subscriptions. Promotional periods generally
include the period of trial service plus 30 days to handle the
receipt and processing of payments. We measure conversion rate three
months after the period in which the trial service ends. Based on our
experience it may take up to 90 days after the trial service ends for
vehicle owners and lessees to respond to our marketing communications
and become self-paying subscribers.
(3) ARPU is derived from total earned subscriber revenue and net
advertising revenue, divided by the number of months in the period,
divided by the daily weighted average number of subscribers for the
period. ARPU is calculated as follows (in thousands, except for
subscriber and per subscriber amounts):

(7) Average self-pay monthly churn; conversion rate; ARPU; SAC, as
adjusted, per gross subscriber addition; customer service and billing
expenses, as adjusted, per average subscriber; and free cash flow are
not measures of financial performance under U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP"). We believe these non-GAAP financial
measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our
operating performance and are used by us for budgetary and planning
purposes; when publicly providing our business outlook; as a means to
evaluate period-to-period comparisons; and to compare our performance
to that of our competitors. We also believe that investors also use
our current and projected metrics to monitor the performance of our
business and to make investment decisions.
We believe the exclusion of share-based payment expense in our
calculations of SAC, as adjusted, per gross subscriber addition and
customer service and billing expenses, as adjusted, per average
subscriber is useful given the significant variation in expense that
can result from changes in the fair market value of our common stock,
the effect of which is unrelated to the operational conditions that
give rise to variations in the components of our subscriber
acquisition costs and customer service and billing expenses.
Specifically, the exclusion of share-based payment expense in our
calculation of SAC, as adjusted, per gross subscriber addition is
critical in being able to understand the economic impact of the
direct costs incurred to acquire a subscriber and the effect over
time as economies of scale are reached.
These non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in
conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. These
non-GAAP financial measures may be susceptible to varying
calculations; may not be comparable to other similarly titled
measures of other companies; and should not be considered in
isolation, as a substitute for, or superior to measures of financial
performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
(8) We refer to net income (loss) before interest and investment income;
interest expense, net of amounts capitalized; income tax expense;
loss on extinguishment of debt and credit facilities, net; (gain)
loss on investments; other expense (income); restructuring,
impairments and related costs; depreciation and amortization; and
share-based payment expense as adjusted income (loss) from
operations. Adjusted income (loss) from operations is not a measure
of financial performance under U.S. GAAP. We believe adjusted income
(loss) from operations is a useful measure of our operating
performance. We use adjusted income (loss) from operations for
budgetary and planning purposes; to assess the relative profitability
and on-going performance of our consolidated operations; to compare
our performance from period–to-period; and to compare our performance
to that of our competitors. We also believe adjusted income (loss)
from operations is useful to investors to compare our operating
performance to the performance of other communications, entertainment
and media companies. We believe that investors use current and
projected adjusted income (loss) from operations to estimate our
current or prospective enterprise value and to make investment
decisions.
Because we fund and build-out our satellite radio system through the
periodic raising and expenditure of large amounts of capital, our
results of operations reflect significant charges for interest and
depreciation expense. We believe adjusted income (loss) from
operations provides useful information about the operating
performance of our business apart from the costs associated with our
capital structure and physical plant. The exclusion of interest and
depreciation and amortization expense is useful given fluctuations in
interest rates and significant variation in depreciation and
amortization expense that can result from the amount and timing of
capital expenditures and potential variations in estimated useful
lives, all of which can vary widely across different industries or
among companies within the same industry. We believe the exclusion of
taxes is appropriate for comparability purposes as the tax positions
of companies can vary because of their differing abilities to take
advantage of tax benefits and because of the tax policies of the
various jurisdictions in which they operate. We believe the exclusion
of restructuring, impairments and related costs is useful given the
non-recurring nature of these expenses. We also believe the exclusion
of share-based payment expense is useful given the significant
variation in expense that can result from changes in the fair market
value of our common stock. To compensate for the exclusion of taxes,
other expense (income), depreciation and amortization and share-based
payment expense, we separately measure and budget for these items.
There are material limitations associated with the use of adjusted
income (loss) from operations in evaluating our company compared with
net loss, which reflects overall financial performance, including the
effects of taxes, other (income) expense, depreciation and
amortization, restructuring, impairments and related costs and share-
based payment expense. We use adjusted income (loss) from operations
to supplement GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding
of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results
alone. Investors that wish to compare and evaluate our operating
results after giving effect for these costs, should refer to net loss
as disclosed in our consolidated statements of operations. Since
adjusted income (loss) from operations is a non-GAAP financial
measure, our calculation of adjusted income (loss) from operations
may be susceptible to varying calculations; may not be comparable to
other similarly titled measures of other companies; and should not be
considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or superior to measures
of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The reconciliation of the pro forma unadjusted net income (loss) to
the pro forma adjusted income (loss) from operations is calculated as
follows (see footnotes for reconciliation of the pro forma amounts to their respective GAAP amounts):
