Exhibit 99.1
SIRIUS REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2006 RESULTS
NEW YORK – February 27, 2007 – SIRIUS Satellite Radio (NASDAQ: SIRI) today announced record full year and fourth quarter 2006 results driven by an 82% increase in subscribers to more than 6 million, positive free cash flow in the fourth quarter and the highest satellite radio subscriber market share in the company’s history.
“In 2006, SIRIUS added 2.7 million new subscribers, an annual record for satellite radio, and captured 62% share of satellite radio subscriber growth. More importantly, SIRIUS achieved positive free cash flow in the fourth quarter 2006 - four years after adding our first subscriber,” said Mel Karmazin, CEO of SIRIUS. “The fourth quarter marked the fifth consecutive quarter of satellite radio subscriber leadership for SIRIUS and a record 67% of satellite radio growth. We look forward to another year of strong growth in 2007, anticipating that we will approach $1 billion in total revenue. The pending merger with XM will offer unprecedented choice for consumers and create tremendous value for our shareholders.”
SIRIUS ended 2006 with 6,024,555 subscribers, up 82% from 3,316,560 subscribers at the end of 2005. Retail subscribers increased 64% in 2006 to 4,041,826 from 2005 retail subscribers of 2,465,363. OEM subscribers increased 138% in 2006 to 1,959,009 from 823,693 at the end of 2005. During the fourth quarter 2006, SIRIUS added 905,247 subscribers, or 67% of satellite radio net additions.
Total revenue for 2006 increased to $637.2 million, up 163% from 2005 total revenue of $242.2 million. Fourth quarter 2006 total revenue of $193.4 million increased 142% from fourth quarter 2005 revenue of $80.0 million. Average monthly revenue per subscriber (or “ARPU”) was $11.01 in 2006 up from $10.34 in 2005. 2006 ARPU included a $0.56 contribution from net advertising revenue, up 100% from the $0.28 contribution from net advertising revenue reported
in 2005. Average monthly churn for 2006 was 1.9% reflecting total churn from both retail and OEM channels. SAC per gross subscriber addition was $114 for 2006 improving 18% over 2005’s SAC per gross subscriber addition of $139.
SIRIUS reported a net loss of ($1.1) billion, or ($0.79) per share, for 2006. The adjusted net loss for 2006 (adjusted to primarily exclude stock-based compensation) improved to ($656.0) million for 2006, and the adjusted loss from operations improved to ($513.1) million versus 2006 guidance of ($565) million. The free cash flow loss for the full year of 2006 was ($500.7) million, in-line with previous guidance.
In the fourth quarter 2006, SIRIUS reported a net loss of ($245.6) million, or ($0.17) per share. The adjusted net loss (adjusted to primarily exclude stock-based compensation) improved to ($203.0) million for the fourth quarter, and the adjusted loss from operations improved to ($166.8) million.
The company posted positive free cash flow in the fourth quarter 2006 of $30.4 million, solidly reaching its goal of positive free cash flow as early as the fourth quarter of 2006. The definition of free cash flow is the sum of net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, capital expenditures and restricted and other investment activity.
2007 OUTLOOK
SIRIUS today provided the following guidance for the full year 2007:
In light of the pending merger with XM, and the uncertainty surrounding the timing and financial impact, the company is no longer currently providing cash flow guidance. See section on the pending merger of equals with XM Satellite Radio Holdings Inc.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The discussion of operating expenses below excludes the effects of stock-based compensation. The company believes this presentation improves the transparency of disclosure and is consistent with the way operating results are evaluated.
FOURTH QUARTER 2006 VERSUS FOURTH QUARTER 2005
For the fourth quarter of 2006, SIRIUS recognized total revenue of $193.4 million compared with $80.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2005. This 142%, or $113.4 million, increase in revenue was driven by a $99.4 million increase in subscriber revenue resulting from the net increase in subscribers of 2,707,995, or 82%, from December 31, 2005 to December 31, 2006; a $5.4 million increase in net advertising revenue; and a $7.5 million increase in equipment revenue.
The company’s adjusted loss from operations decreased $59.5 million to ($166.8) million for the fourth quarter of 2006 from ($226.3) million for the fourth quarter of 2005 (refer to the reconciliation table of net loss to adjusted loss from operations). This decrease was primarily driven by an increase in total revenue of $113.4 million, which more than offset a $53.9 million increase in operating expenses.
Programming and content expenses increased $29.8 million to $64.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2006 from $35.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2005. The increase was primarily attributable to license fees and talent costs associated with new programming, including the Howard Stern show which launched in January 2006, and higher broadcast and webstreaming royalties as a result of the company’s larger subscriber base.
Customer service and billing expenses increased $3.9 million to $23.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2006 from $20.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2005. The increase was primarily attributable to call center operating costs necessary to accommodate the increase in the company’s subscriber base and transaction fees due to the addition of new subscribers.
Customer service and billing expenses per average subscriber per month declined 44% to $1.49 for the fourth quarter of 2006 from $2.66 for the fourth quarter of 2005.
Cost of equipment increased $14.7 million to $22.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2006 from $7.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2005. The increase was primarily attributable to higher sales volume and per unit costs as the company continued to introduce new products through the direct to consumer distribution channel.
Sales and marketing expenses increased $22.1 million to $85.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2006 from $63.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2005. This 35% increase in sales and marketing expenses compared with a 142% increase in total revenue from $80.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2005 to $193.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2006. The increase in sales and marketing expenses was primarily attributable to increased OEM revenue share as a result of a 138% increase in the company’s OEM subscriber base, as well as increased cooperative marketing and advertising costs.
Subscriber acquisition costs decreased $24.2 million to $121.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2006 from $145.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2005. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower commissions and decreased aftermarket hardware subsidies as the company continued to reduce manufacturing and chip set costs, offset by increased OEM hardware subsidies due to higher production volume and costs related to FM transmitter compliance with FCC rules.
SAC per gross subscriber addition decreased 9% from $113 for the fourth quarter of 2005 to $103 for the fourth quarter of 2006 primarily due to lower average commission rates and decreased aftermarket average subsidy rates as the company continued to reduce manufacturing and chip set costs, offset by the per subscriber effect of costs related to FM transmitter compliance with FCC rules.
General and administrative expenses increased $6.3 million to $23.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2006 from $16.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2005. The increase was primarily a result of employment-related costs, legal fees and bad debt expense to support the growth of the business.
For the fourth quarter of 2005, the company recorded ($6.2) million for its share of SIRIUS Canada Inc.’s net loss.
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2006 VERSUS YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005
For the year ended December 31, 2006, SIRIUS recognized total revenue of $637.2 million compared with $242.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. This 163%, or $395.0 million, increase in revenue was driven by a $351.8 million increase in subscriber revenue resulting from the net increase in subscribers of 2,707,995, or 82%, from December 31, 2005 to December 31, 2006; a $24.9 million increase in net advertising revenue; and a $14.5 million increase in equipment revenue.
The company’s adjusted loss from operations decreased $54.4 million to ($513.1) million for the year ended December 31, 2006 from ($567.5) million for the year ended December 31, 2005 (refer to the reconciliation table of net loss to adjusted loss from operations). This decrease was primarily driven by an increase in total revenue of $395.0 million, which more than offset a $340.6 million increase in operating expenses.
Satellite and transmission expenses increased $11.3 million to $39.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $27.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily attributable to an impairment charge in the second quarter of 2006 associated with certain satellite long-lead time parts purchased in 1999 that will no longer be needed as a result of the company’s new satellite contract announced in 2006.
Programming and content expenses increased $131.6 million to $230.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $98.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily attributable to license fees and talent costs associated with new programming, including the Howard Stern show which launched in January 2006, and higher broadcast and webstreaming royalties as a result of the company’s larger subscriber base.
Customer service and billing expenses increased $21.5 million to $68.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $46.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily attributable to call center operating costs necessary to accommodate the increase in the company’s subscriber base and transaction fees due to the addition of new subscribers. Customer service and billing expenses per average subscriber per month declined 41% to $1.24 for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $2.10 for the year ended December 31, 2005.
Cost of equipment increased $23.4 million to $35.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $11.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily attributable to higher sales volume and per unit costs as the company continued to introduce new products through the direct to consumer distribution channel.
Sales and marketing expenses increased $51.9 million to $222.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $170.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. This 30% increase in sales and marketing expenses compared with a 163% increase in total revenue from $242.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 to $637.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2006. The increase in sales and marketing expenses was primarily attributable to increased retail residuals; OEM revenue share as a result of a 138% increase in the company’s OEM subscriber base; cooperative marketing and advertising costs; and compensation related costs.
Subscriber acquisition costs increased $70.1 million to $419.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $349.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily attributable to decreased aftermarket hardware subsidies as the company continued to reduce manufacturing and chip set costs, offset by increased OEM hardware subsidies due to higher production volume and costs related to FM transmitter compliance with FCC rules.
SAC per gross subscriber addition decreased 18% from $139 for the year ended December 31, 2005 to $114 for the year ended December 31, 2006 primarily due to lower average commission rates and decreased aftermarket and OEM average subsidy rates as the company continued to reduce manufacturing and chip set costs, offset by the per subscriber effect of costs related to FM transmitter compliance with FCC rules.
General and administrative expenses increased $27.7 million to $87.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $59.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. The increase
was primarily a result of employment-related costs, legal fees and bad debt expense to support the growth of the business.
Engineering, design and development expenses increased $14.0 million to $58.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $44.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 primarily as a result of costs associated with OEM tooling and manufacturing upgrades and receiver integration for factory installations of SIRIUS radios; development costs associated with the manufacturing of SIRIUS radios; and additional personnel-related costs to support research and development efforts.
In September 2005, the company also recorded a ($6.2) million loss from the redemption of its 15% Senior Secured Discount Notes due 2007 and 14½% Senior Secured Notes due 2009.
For the year ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, the company recorded ($4.4) million and ($6.9) million, respectively, for its share of SIRIUS Canada, Inc.’s net loss.

The adjusted net loss per share, or net loss per share excluding the impairment loss and stock-based charges, was ($0.47) for the year ended December 31, 2006 compared with an adjusted net loss per share of ($0.53) for the year ended December 31, 2005 (refer to the reconciliation table of net loss per share to adjusted net loss per share).

(6) SIRIUS believes free cash flow; average monthly churn; SAC per gross subscriber addition; customer service and billing expenses per average subscriber; and ARPU provide meaningful supplemental information regarding operating performance and liquidity and are used for internal management purposes; when publicly providing the business outlook; as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons; and to compare the company’s performance to that of its competitors. SIRIUS also believes that investors use current and projected metrics to monitor performance of the business and make investment decisions.
SIRIUS believes the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense in the calculations of SAC per gross subscriber addition and customer service and billing expenses per average subscriber is useful given the significant variation in expense that can result from changes in the fair market value of SIRIUS common stock, the effect of which is unrelated to the operational conditions that give rise to variations in the components of subscriber acquisition costs and customer service and billing expenses. Specifically,
the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense in the calculation of SAC 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.
(7) SIRIUS refers to net loss before taxes; other income (expense) - including interest and investment income, interest expense, loss from redemption of debt and equity in net loss of affiliate; depreciation; impairment charges; and stock-based compensation expense as adjusted loss from operations. Adjusted loss from operations is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. The company believes adjusted loss from operations is a useful measure of its operating performance. The company uses adjusted loss from operations for budgetary and planning purposes; to assess the relative profitability and on-going performance of consolidated operations; to compare performance from period to period; and to compare performance to that of its competitors. The company also believes adjusted loss from operations is useful to investors to compare operating performance to the performance of other communications, entertainment and media companies. The company believes that investors use current and projected adjusted loss from operations to estimate the current or prospective enterprise value and make investment decisions.
Because the company funds and builds-out its satellite radio system through the periodic raising and expenditure of large amounts of capital, results of operations reflect significant charges for interest and depreciation expense. The company believes adjusted loss from operations provides useful information about the operating performance of the business apart from the costs associated with the capital structure and physical plant. The exclusion of interest expense and depreciation is useful given fluctuations in interest rates and significant variation in depreciation 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. The company believes 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. The company also believes the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense is useful given the significant variation in expense that can result from changes in the fair market value of the company’s common stock. Finally, the company believes that the exclusion of equity in net loss of affiliate (SIRIUS Canada Inc.) is useful to assess the performance of its core consolidated operations in the continental United States. To compensate for the exclusion of taxes, other income (expense), depreciation, impairment charges and stock-based compensation expense, the company separately measures and budgets for these items.
There are material limitations associated with the use of adjusted loss from operations in evaluating the company compared with net loss, which reflects overall financial performance, including the effects of taxes, other income (expense), depreciation, impairment charges and stock-based compensation expense. The company uses adjusted 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 the operating results after giving effect for these costs, should refer to net loss as disclosed in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations. Since adjusted loss from operations is a non-GAAP financial measure, the calculation of adjusted 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.
(8) SIRIUS refers to adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share as net loss and net loss per share excluding impairment charges and stock-based compensation expense. Adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share are not measures of financial performance under GAAP. The company believes adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share are useful to investors to compare its operating performance to the performance of other communications, entertainment and media companies. The company believes the exclusion of impairment charges is appropriate for comparability purposes as the existence, amount and timing of impairment charges can vary period to period and can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. The company also believes the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense is useful given the significant variation in expense that can result from changes in the fair market value of the company’s common stock.
There are material limitations associated with the use of adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share in evaluating the company compared with net loss and net loss per share, which reflects overall financial performance, including the effects of impairment charges and stock-based compensation expense. The company uses adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share 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 the operating results after giving effect for these costs, should refer to net loss and net loss per share as disclosed in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations. Since adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share are non-GAAP financial measures, the calculation of adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share 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.
