DALLAS--(Business Wire)--
CabelTel International Corporation (AMEX: GBR) ("the Company"), a
Dallas-based company with investments in a retirement center and oil
and gas leases, today reported a net income of $62,000 or $0.06 per
share for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, compared to net
income of $1,301,000 or $1.32 per share for the year ended December
31, 2006. Net income from continuing operations for the same periods
was $689,000 or $0.70 per share in 2007 and $1,811,000 or $1.83 per
share in 2006.

   Revenues and Operating Expenses from operations of a retirement
facility: Revenues were $3.0 million as compared to $3.0 million in
2006. Real estate operating expenses, which consist of retirement
operations expense, lease expense and depreciation and amortization,
were $2.2 million in both 2007 and 2006.

   Corporate General and Administrative Expense: These expenses were
$796,000 in 2007 and $1.1 million in 2006. 2007 includes $29,000 for
prior year income taxes. 2006 included approximately $80,000 in
payroll and consulting fees that were not incurred in 2007. In general
there was an overall reduction in administrative costs in the latter
part of 2006 which has had the effect of lowering administrative costs
in 2007.

   Interest Income: Interest income was $112,000 in 2007 and $447,000
in 2006. During 2006, the Company recorded interest income of $307,000
from funds it had advanced to CableTEL AD for operations and
acquisitions in Bulgaria. (See interest expense below).

   Interest Expense: Interest expense was $73,000 in 2007 and
$486,000 in 2006. During the first quarter of 2006, the Company
recorded interest expense of $307,000 on loans it made to acquire
funds which were provided to CableTEL AD for operating expenses. The
interest expense equaled the interest income.

   Gain on sale of assets: In November 2007, the Company sold a
participation in the future cash flow of its retirement community in
King City, Oregon and recorded a gain of $750,000.

   Other Income (Expense): Other income was $142,000 in 2007 and $2.6
million in 2006. In June 2006, the Company rescinded its acquisition
of CableTEL AD and received a break up fee of $1,500,000 which
resulted in net income, after deducting expenses of $1,467,000. In
addition, in November 2006, the Company settled another obligation and
recorded a gain on such settlement of $1,021,000. Additionally, the
Company collected certain payments on certain receivables that were
previously written off.

   Discontinued Operations: During 2007, the Company transferred
ownership of the Gainesville Outlet Mall to an unrelated third party.
