MATTOON, Ill., Dec. 13, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Consolidated Communications Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq:CNSL) announced today that it has purchased an additional interest in one of its wireless partnerships.

The Company has acquired an additional interest of approximately 3.5% in the GTE Mobilenet of Texas RSA #17 Limited Partnership, which is one of its five wireless partnership investments.

Based on cash distributions received in 2012 from this partnership, the Company would have received $1.1 million more throughout the year had it owned the additional 3.5% investment interest for the entire year.
