RE:

New Ulm Telecom, Inc.
Form 10-K for Year Ended December 31, 2009
Filed March 29, 2010
Form 10-Q for the Quarterly Period Ended June 30, 2010
Filed August 12, 2010
File No. 000-03024

 

Dear Mr. Hill:

 

In response to your letter dated October 19, 2010, and as discussed per a phone call with Sharon Virga on October 27, 2010, we have the following comments.

 

Form 10-K for Year Ended December 31, 2009

 

Liquidity Outlook, page 38  

 

1.

We will expand our cash flow discussion for our 3rd Quarter 10-Q filing and 2010 10-K filing to include a discussion of our working capital position, cash generated by operations and potential borrowings under our revolving credit facility to further explain our plans to fund our future capital expenditures and future contractual obligations.

 

Consolidated Financial Statements of Hector Communications Corporation

 

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, page 86

 

2.

Per our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm’s suggestion, we will amend our 2009 10-K and change the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm’s opinion page for Hector Communications Company to March 25, 2010 from March 25, 2009, which was the result of a typographical error.

 

Form 10-Q for the Quarterly Period Ended June 30, 2010

 

Consolidated Statements of Income, page 3

 

3.

We are, in fact, following FASB ASC Topic 980-835-25-1 and are capitalizing interest during construction under the line item “Interest During Construction” located in the Other (Expense) Income section of our consolidated statements of income. The amount listed for the 2nd quarter of 2010 was $9,803 and is listed as an other income item with the offset being capitalized to property, plant and equipment. We do not specifically break out Interest During Construction on our cash flow statement, but rather the amounts are recorded in the net income line and additions to property, plant and equipment, net.
