Teletouch Reports Financial Results for First Quarter Fiscal 2006

Teletouch Communications, Inc. (AMEX:TLL) today reported
financial information relating to its results for the first quarter
ended August 31, 2005. Total revenues for the first quarter of fiscal
2006 declined approximately 14.7% to $5.5 million compared with $6.4
million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005. Cash and Cash Equivalents
nearly doubled to approximately $1.2 million at the end of the first
quarter, compared to $0.6 million in the comparable period for fiscal
2004, but were down slightly from fiscal 2005 year-end at $1.3
million.
   Total Paging revenues for the first quarter declined 17.1% to
approximately $4.2 million, compared with $5.0 million in the
prior-year period. Two-way radio services and product sales for the
first quarter 2005 were approximately the same as last year's $1.2
million. Total Other service revenues increased approximately 26.5% to
$43,000 in the first quarter of 2006, compared to $34,000 through the
same period in 2005. Within the Other segment, Telemetry product sales
decreased approximately 65.2% to $49,000 in the first quarter of 2006,
compared to $141,000 through the same period in 2005.
   Teletouch recorded an operating loss of $0.32 million for the
first quarter of fiscal 2006 compared with $0.16 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 2005. The decline in operating income was primarily
due to the steady decline in service revenues from fewer pagers in
service against the service provision costs. Pagers in service
declined to 131,700 at quarter-end compared with 179,200 at last
year's quarter-end. The Company recorded a net loss of $0.43 million,
or $0.09 per share in the fiscal first quarter of 2006 compared with a
net loss of $0.22 million, or $0.05 per share in the first quarter
fiscal 2005.
   Discussing the quarter-end financial results, Teletouch CEO, T. A.
"Kip" Hyde, Jr. stated, "With this fiscal 2006 quarterly report
complete, we have completed all of the items required by our
previously submitted and approved plan to regain compliance with the
AMEX listing requirements before November 28, 2005. We are now current
on all of our financial reports filings with the SEC and expect that
the Company will regain its full listing with the American Stock
Exchange ("AMEX") in the near future."
   Hyde concluded, "We believe that the continued downward trend in
the paging revenue reported this quarter underscores the underlying
rationale behind our sale of the paging business. As previously
announced, we plan to ask Teletouch shareholders to approve the sale
of the paging business and other matters at a special shareholders
meeting expected to be scheduled before the end of the third quarter
of fiscal 2006. We further expect to use the proceeds from this sale
to focus on new high-growth opportunities, either through internal
growth, acquisitions or both."
