Qwest Improved Financial Position• First quarter (Q1) 2003, Qwest had…
– net income: $150 million– diluted earnings per share: $0.09– revenue: $3.63 billion– operating expense (cost of sales & SG&A) decreased $233
million, or 8.1%, year-over-year.
• Strengthened the balance sheet– new $1.75 billion loan, June 2003 (at low interest rate)– reduced principle borrowings by ~$2.2 billion from debt
exchanges– expecting $7.1 billion from Qwest Dex sale (phases 1 & 2)
