ITEM 2.02  RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

 

On February 27, 2006, HickoryTech Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release to report preliminary revenue results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2005. The Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K on February 28, 2006, contained a typographical error relating to the relevant scope of the press release. The first sentence under Item 2.02 should have read “On February 27, 2006, Hickory Tech Corporation announced its sales and earnings for the fourth fiscal quarter and year ended December 31, 2005” rather than third fiscal quarter as originally filed. This Form 8-K/A is being filed to reflect the corrected language of Item 2.02. The full text of the press release issued on February 27, 2006 is incorporated by reference. The information in this current report, including the exhibit thereto, is not deemed “filed” for purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
