FD DISCLOSURE.
On
June
28, 2006, Talk America Holdings, Inc. issued a release announcing revised
financial guidance for revenues and Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter
2006 and year-end 2006. A copy of the release is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
The

that Section.
Non-GAAP
Measures
The
release furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report includes a reference to
non-GAAP financial information. Our management believes that Adjusted EBITDA
is
useful to investors and other users of our financial information in evaluating
operating financial performance and is a financial measure that is commonly
used
by readers of financial information in assessing financial performance. Our
management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of our operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA, or Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization,
is defined as operating income plus depreciation, amortization and stock-based
compensation expense, a non-GAAP financial measure.
It
is our
management's intent to provide non-GAAP financial information to enhance
understanding of our GAAP financial results. This information should be
considered by the reader in addition to, but not instead of, our financial
statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
