ARCH WIRELESS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

(a) Preparation of Interim Financial Statements — The consolidated financial statements of Arch Wireless, Inc. (“Arch” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial information included herein, other than the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2003, has been prepared without audit. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2003 has been derived from, but does not include all the disclosures contained in, the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003. In the opinion of management, these unaudited statements include all adjustments and accruals consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of all interim periods reported herein. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in Arch’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.

(b) Risks and Other Important Factors — Based on current and anticipated levels of operations, Arch’s management anticipates that net cash provided by operating activities, together with the $34.2 million of cash on hand at March 31, 2004, will be adequate to meet its anticipated cash requirements for the foreseeable future.

     In the event that net cash provided by operating activities and cash on hand are not sufficient to meet future cash requirements, Arch may be required to reduce planned capital expenditures, sell assets or seek additional financing. Arch can provide no assurances that reductions in planned capital expenditures or proceeds from asset sales would be sufficient to cover shortfalls in available cash or that additional financing would be available or, if available, offered on acceptable terms.

     Arch believes that future fluctuations in its revenues and operating results may occur due to many factors, particularly the decreased demand for our messaging services. If the rate of decline of messaging units in service exceeds Arch’s expectations, its revenues will be negatively impacted, and such impact could be material. Arch’s plan to consolidate its networks may also negatively impact revenues as customers may experience a reduction in, and possible disruptions of, service in certain areas. Arch may be unable to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any future revenue shortfall. It is possible that, due to these fluctuations, Arch’s revenue or operating results may not meet the expectations of investors and creditors, which could impair the value of its debt and equity securities.

(c) Proposed Merger — On March 29, 2004 Arch announced the execution of a definitive merger agreement with Metrocall Holdings, Inc. (“Metrocall”). Under terms of the merger agreement, a new holding company will be formed to own both Arch and Metrocall. In the aggregate, Metrocall common stockholders will receive $150 million in cash pursuant to a cash election and 27.5% of the shares of the new holding company’s common stock. Under the cash election, Metrocall shareholders will be entitled to elect to receive cash in the amount of $75.00 per Metrocall share for up to two million Metrocall shares. The remaining approximately four million fully diluted Metrocall shares will be converted into 27.5% of the new holding company’s outstanding common stock. To the extent that cash elections are made in respect of a number greater than or less than two million shares, the merger consideration will be adjusted on a pro rata basis so that two million of Metrocall’s outstanding shares are exchanged for cash.

     Arch shareholders will receive one share of new holding company common stock for each share of Arch common stock they own. Based on Arch’s outstanding shares and options as of April 20, 2004, 20,249,996 shares and options of the new holding company would be issued to Arch stakeholders. This amount consists of 19,721,317 shares currently outstanding, 278,683 shares remaining to be issued pursuant to Arch’s plan of reorganization and options to purchase 249,996 shares of Arch common stock issued to certain members of the board of directors which will become fully vested on May 29, 2004. The current balance of outstanding shares above includes 633,001 shares of restricted stock issued to certain members of management that are currently subject to repurchase and other restrictions. On May 29, 2004, restrictions related to 316,999 of these shares will no longer be applicable, leaving 316,002 shares subject to these restrictions, including possible repurchase prior to May 29, 2005. If all 316,002 shares were repurchased, Arch shareholders would receive 19,933,994 shares of the new holding company’s common

5


 

stock and Metrocall’s shareholders would receive 7,560,515 shares of the new holding company’s common stock, reflecting an exchange ratio of 1.876 new holding company shares for each Metrocall share.

     Arch and Metrocall intend that the merger will qualify as a tax-free reorganization to the extent that shareholders receive stock rather than cash. Upon completion of the merger, Arch shareholders will own approximately 72.5% and Metrocall shareholders will own approximately 27.5% of the new company on a fully diluted basis.

     Arch expects the new holding company will incur up to $150.0 million of indebtedness to provide the funds necessary to purchase the two million Metrocall shares subject to the cash election referred to above. If such financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, the merger may be abandoned by either Arch or Metrocall.

     Arch expects the merger, which has been approved by the boards of directors of Arch and Metrocall, but is subject to regulatory review, shareholder approval and other third-party consents, to be completed in the second half of 2004.

(d) Long-lived Assets — Intangible and other assets were comprised of the following at March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 (in thousands):

                                 
            Gross        
    Useful   Carrying   Accumulated    
    Life
  Amount
  Amortization
  Net Balance
Purchased subscriber lists
  3 yrs   $ 3,547     $ 3,547     $  
Purchased Federal Communications Commission licenses
  5 yrs     2,119       2,119        
Other
            3             3  
 
           
 
     
 
     
 
 
 
          $ 5,669     $ 5,666     $ 3  
 
           
 
     
 
     
 
 

     Aggregate amortization expense for intangible assets for the three months ended March 31, 2004 was zero. The balance of Arch’s intangible assets were fully amortized in 2003, therefore there is no additional amortization expense to recognize in future periods.

     (e) Restructuring Charges — In 2003 and the three month period ended March 31, 2004, Arch recorded restructuring charges of $11.5 million and $3.0 million, respectively, related to certain lease agreements for transmitter locations. Under the terms of these agreements Arch is required to pay minimum amounts for a designated number of transmitter locations, however, Arch determined the designated number of transmitter locations was in excess of the Company’s current and anticipated needs. At March 31, 2004, the balance of the restructuring reserve was as follows (in thousands):

                                 
                            Remaining
    Balance at   Restructuring           Reserve at
    December 31, 2003
  Charge in 2004
  Cash Paid
  March 31, 2004
Lease obligation costs
  $ 11,481     $ 3,018     $ 3,032     $ 11,467  

The remaining obligations associated with these agreements are expected to be paid over the next five quarters.

(f) Income Taxes — Arch accounts for income taxes under the provisions of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, given the provisions of enacted laws.

     SFAS No. 109 requires Arch to evaluate the recoverability of its deferred tax assets on an ongoing basis. The assessment is required to consider all available positive and negative evidence to determine whether, based on such evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of Arch’s net deferred assets will be realized in future periods.

     During the quarter ended December 31, 2003, management determined the available positive evidence carried more weight than the historical negative evidence and concluded it was more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets would be realized in future periods. The positive evidence management considered included operating income and cash flows for 2002 and 2003, Arch’s repayment of debt ahead of scheduled maturities and anticipated operating income and cash flows for future periods in sufficient amounts to

6


 

realize the net deferred tax assets. Results for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and anticipated future results remain consistent with the assessment made in 2003, therefore management continues to believe no valuation allowance is required.

The effective income tax rate is expected to continue to differ from the statutory federal tax rate primarily due to the effect of state income taxes.

     (g) Earnings per Share — Basic earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average common shares outstanding plus the effect of outstanding stock options using the “treasury stock” method. The components of basic and diluted earnings per share were as follows (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

                 
    Three Months Ended March 31,
    2004
  2003
Net income
  $ 4,857     $ 6,071  
 
   
 
     
 
 
Weighted average common shares outstanding
    20,000,000       20,000,000  
Dilutive effect of:
               
Options to purchase common stock
    78,213        
 
   
 
     
 
 
Common stock and common stock equivalents
    20,078,213       20,000,000  
 
   
 
     
 
 
Earnings per share:
               
Basic
  $ 0.24     $ 0.30  
Diluted
  $ 0.24     $ 0.30  

     For the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, no shares were excluded from the calculations above due to the shares being anti-dilutive.

     (h) Recent and Pending Accounting Pronouncements — In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB 51 and issued a revision to that guidance, FIN No. 46-R, in December 2003. FIN No. 46 and FIN No 46-R provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than through voting rights called “variable interest entities” or “VIEs” and how to determine when and which business enterprise should consolidate the VIE (the “primary beneficiary”). This model for consolidation applies to an entity in which either (1) the equity investors (if any) do not have a controlling financial interest or (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without receiving additional subordinated financial support from other parties. In addition, these interpretations require both the primary beneficiary and all other enterprises with a significant variable interest in a VIE to make additional disclosures. The provisions of FIN No. 46 were applicable to Arch for any interests entered into after January 31, 2003 and the provisions of FIN No. 46-R were effective on January 1, 2004. Arch does not have any interests that would change its current reporting entity or require additional disclosures outlined in FIN No. 46 or FIN No. 46-R.
