NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
of IDT Corporation and subsidiaries (collectively "the Company") have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the six months and three months ended
January 31, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending July 31, 1999. For further information, please
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended July 31, 1998, as
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Segment Information

The Company must adopt SFAS 131, Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information in fiscal 1999. Because Statement 131 is not
required to be applied to interim financial statements in the initial year of
adoption, the Company is not required to disclose segment information in
accordance with Statement 131 until its fiscal 1999 annual report, at which time
it will restate prior years' segment disclosure to conform to the Statement 131
segment presentation, if practicable. In the Company's first quarter fiscal 2000
report, and in subsequent quarters, it will present the interim disclosure
required by Statement 131 for both 2000 and 1999.

Note 4 - Legal Proceedings and Contingencies

In December 1995, Surfers Unlimited, L.L.C. filed a breach of contract
action in the New Jersey Superior Court, Bergen County. The suit names a
subsidiary of the Company as defendant and seeks restitutional and consequential
damages in an unspecified amount for interference with prospective business
advantages, breach of contract and improper use of confidential and proprietary
information. Howard S. Jonas, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the
Company, has also been named as a defendant in the action. The Company's
subsidiary has filed a counterclaim based on interference with prospective
business advantages, breach of contract and improper use of confidential and
proprietary

7
information, which the Company voluntarily dismissed in November 1998. The suit
is currently in the discovery phase, which was scheduled to end in February 1999
but is continuing until an unspecified date in the future. A trial date has not
been scheduled to date.

In January 1997, six former employees alleging employment
discrimination commenced a suit in New Jersey Superior Court, Bergen County.
Howard S. Jonas, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, has
also been named as a defendant in the action. The action claims that the Company
has made hiring and promotion decisions based upon the religious backgrounds of
the relevant individuals, in violation of federal and state law. The complaint
seeks compensatory and punitive damages in an unspecified amount and also seeks
statutory multiples of damages. All of the claims arising under federal law were
dismissed by the Court in New Jersey Superior Court, Bergen County, leaving the
plaintiffs with only the remedies available under state law. Further, the Court
granted the Company permission to file counterclaims against all plaintiffs for
the alleged unlawful taking of business records. The Company filed such
counterclaims in October 1998. Discovery is continuing and a trial date is
scheduled for April 28, 1999.

In June 1997, an uncertified class-action suit seeking compensatory
damages in an unspecified amount was brought against the Company in New York
Supreme Court, New York County. The suit concerns advertisements that are no
longer used by the Company, and advertising practices that were voluntarily
terminated by the Company following a prior investigation of the Company by the
Attorneys General of several states. In December 1998, the Court denied the
Company's motion for summary judgment; however, the Court limited the class to
include only citizens of the State of New York. The Company is preparing to
oppose application for class certification.

In September 1997, DigiTEC 2000, Inc. ("DigiTEC") filed a complaint
(subsequently amended) in New York Supreme Court, New York County against the
Company alleging that in connection with its sale of prepaid calling cards, the
Company engaged in unfair competition and tortiously interfered with an
exclusive business relationship between DigiTEC and two co-defendants, CG Com,
Inc. and Mr. Carlos Gomez. The complaint seeks compensatory and consequential
damages in an unspecified amount and also seeks an unspecified amount of
punitive damages. The complaint also alleges that CG Com, Inc. and Mr. Gomez owe
DigiTEC more than $500,000. In November 1997, the Court denied DigiTEC's motion
for a preliminary injunction to bar CG Com, Inc. and Mr. Gomez from distributing
the Company's calling cards. In August 1998, DigiTEC settled its claims against
CG Com, Inc. and Mr. Carlos Gomez and in November 1998, DigiTEC and the Company
settled all outstanding claims against each other and entered into an agreement
to conduct business on an ongoing basis.

The Company filed a lawsuit against Mr. Glen Miller in August 1997 in
the New Jersey Superior Court, Bergen County. The action was based upon various
matters arising out of Mr. Miller's employment with IDT. Mr. Miller answered the
complaint and filed a counterclaim against the Company seeking compensatory and
punitive damages for breach of his employment contract and breach of the
covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Mr. Miller alleges that the Company
breached his employment agreement by failing to compensate him as contemplated
by his employment agreement, including by failing to deliver to him 20,000
shares of the Company's Common Stock. Mr. Miller also filed a third-party
complaint against Howard Balter, the former Chief Operating Officer of the
Company and the current Chief Executive Officer of Net2Phone, a subsidiary of
the Company, and Jonathan Rand, the Company's former Director of Human
Resources, for fraudulent conduct and misrepresentation. The Company filed its
answer to Mr. Miller's counterclaim in December 1997. In January 1998, the Court
partially granted Mr. Miller's motion for summary judgment, awarding him
severance pay in the amount of approximately $50,000. The Company's motion for
leave to appeal this award has been denied, and the action is currently in the
discovery phase. A trial date has been scheduled for April 1999.

In December 1998, PT-1 Communications, Inc. ("PT-1") filed a complaint
against the Company claiming, among other things, that the Company violated its
service marks and trade dress in connection with the sale and marketing of phone
cards. The Company and PT-1 shortly thereafter entered into a confidential
settlement agreement in December 1998. Subsequent to December 1998, PT-1 filed a
motion for a preliminary injunction to enforce and compel the Company's
compliance with the settlement agreement, which it alleges was breached by the
Company. The Company filed opposition papers to the

8
motion and simultaneously filed a motion for a preliminary injunction. The Court
scheduled a conference for March 1999.


In August 1998, a subsidiary of the Company, InterExchange, Inc.
("IX"), filed a complaint in the New Jersey Superior Court, Middlesex County,
against PT-1. The action has been removed to the U.S. District Court for the
District of New Jersey. The action arises from a contract in which IX and PT-1
agreed that PT-1 would route its traffic from prepaid calling cards through IX's
debit card platform. In the action, IX claimed that PT-1 breached its contract
with IX by failing to make required payments under the contract, and claimed
compensatory damages in the amount of $8.5 million. In February 1999, PT-1 filed
an answer and counterclaim and an answer and third party complaint against IX,
the Company, and certain of their officers, including Howard Jonas. PT-1 alleges
that IX is not entitled to these payments in that IX had breached the agreement,
and that, following IX's 1998 merger agreement with the Company, in which IX
become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, IX violated its covenant in the
agreement that it would not compete with PT-1. PT-1 also alleges, among other
things, that the Company and Mr. Jonas tortiously interfered with the contract
between IX and PT-1, and that they conspired with IX and its personnel to obtain
confidential information relating to PT-1. PT-1 seeks compensatory damages in
the aggregate amount of $200 million, and additional punitive damages in the
amount of $500 million. The Company and Howard Jonas have not yet been served
with the third party complaint and it is anticipated that discovery will
commence shortly.

The Company is subject to other legal proceedings and claims which have
arisen in the ordinary course of its business and have not been finally
adjudicated. Although there can be no assurances in this regard, in the opinion
of the Company's management, such proceedings, as well as the aforementioned
actions, will not have a material adverse effect on results of operations or the
financial condition of the Company.

Item 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following information should be read in conjunction with the
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and the associated
notes thereto of this Quarterly Report, and the audited consolidated financial
statements and the notes thereto and Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company contained in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended July 31, 1998, as
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Overview

The Company is a leading multinational carrier that provides its
wholesale and retail customers with integrated and competitively priced
international and domestic long distance telecommunications service, Internet
access and, through its Net2Phone products and services, Internet telephony
services. The Company delivers these services over a high-quality network
consisting of 68 switches in the U.S. and Europe and owned and leased capacity
on 18 undersea fiber optic cables. In addition, the Company obtains additional
transmission capacity from other carriers.

The Company delivers its international traffic worldwide pursuant to
its agreements with U.S.-based carriers, foreign carriers, and 17 of the
companies that are primarily responsible for providing telecommunications
services in particular countries (which are commonly referred to as "PTTs"). In
addition, the Company maintains a high-speed network that carries Internet
traffic in order to support both its Internet access services and its Internet
telephony services.



Six Months Ended January 31, 1999 Compared to Six Months Ended January 31, 1998

Results of Operations

Revenues. Revenues increased 133.9% from approximately $125.7 million
for the six months ended January 31, 1998 to approximately $294.0 million for
the six months ended January 31, 1999. Telecommunications revenues increased
146.1% from approximately $110.9 million for the six months ended January 31,
1998 to approximately $272.9 million for the six months ended January 31, 1999.
Internet access revenues decreased 14.0% from approximately $10.0 million for
the six months ended January 31, 1998 to approximately $8.6 million for the six
months ended January 31, 1999, reflecting the Company's decision to de-emphasize
its activities in this area. Internet telephony revenues increased 160.4% from
approximately $4.8 million for the six months ended January 31, 1998 to
approximately $12.5 million for the six months ended January 31, 1999.

Telecommunications revenues increased primarily as a result of an
increase in minutes of use from approximately 271.9 million for the six months
ended January 31, 1998 to approximately 1.1 billion for the six months ended
January 31, 1999. The increase in minutes was primarily due to the addition of
wholesale carrier service clients, increased usage by existing clients, and
increased marketing of the Company's prepaid calling cards. The addition of
wholesale carrier services clients and the increased use by existing clients
resulted in an increase in wholesale carrier services revenues of 39.4%, from
approximately $74.1 million for the six months ended January 31, 1998 to
approximately $103.3 million for the six months ended January 31, 1999. As a
percentage of telecommunications revenues, wholesale carrier service revenues
decreased from approximately 66.8% to 37.9%, primarily due to the significant
increase in prepaid calling card revenues both in real dollars and as a
percentage of overall telecommunications revenues. Revenues from sales of
prepaid calling cards increased 555.6% from approximately $23.4 million for the
six months ended January 31, 1998 to approximately $153.4 million for the six
months ended January 31, 1999 as a result of increased marketing efforts and the
Company's purchase of a majority interest in Union Telecard Alliance, LLC, a
prepaid calling card distributor, in May

10
1998. As a percentage of telecommunications revenues, prepaid calling card
revenues increased from approximately 21.1% to 56.1%. As a percentage of
telecommunications revenues, international retail services revenues (which
consist primarily of call reorigination services) decreased from approximately
9.7% to 4.3%.

As a percentage of total revenues, Internet access revenues decreased
from approximately 8.0% for the six months ended January 31, 1998 to
approximately 2.9% for the six months ended January 31, 1999. This decrease was
due to the substantial increase in telecommunications revenues as a percentage
of total revenues, as well as a dollar decrease in Internet access revenues due
to a decrease in total dial-up subscribers.

Internet telephony revenues as a percentage of total revenues increased
from 3.8% for the six months ended January 31, 1998 to 4.2% for the six months
ended January 31, 1999. The increase in Internet telephony revenues was
primarily due to an increase in billed-minute usage resulting from increased
marketing of the Company's Internet telephony products and services.

Direct Cost of Revenues. The Company's direct cost of revenues
increased by 146.6%, from approximately $92.3 million for the six months ended
January 31, 1998 to approximately $227.7 million for the six months ended
January 31, 1999. As a percentage of total revenues, these costs increased from
73.4% for the six months ended January 31, 1998 to 77.4% for the six months
ended January 31, 1999. The dollar increase is due primarily to increases in
underlying carrier and connectivity costs, as the Company's telecommunications
minutes of use, and associated revenues, grew substantially. As a percentage of
total revenues, the increase in direct costs reflects lower gross margins
associated with wholesale carrier services and prepaid calling card services as
compared with international retail and Internet access services. Gross margins
were also adversely affected by delayed network deployment.

Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and
administrative costs increased 72.1% from approximately $23.7 million for the
six months ended January 31, 1998 to approximately $40.8 million for the six
months ended January 31, 1999. As a percentage of total revenues, these costs
decreased from 18.9% for the six months ended January 31, 1998 to 13.9% for the
six months ended January 31, 1999. The increase in these costs in dollar terms
is due primarily to increased sales and marketing efforts for retail services,
including prepaid calling cards, domestic and international long distance,
Net2Phone and Net2Phone Direct. As a percentage of total revenues, the decrease
was due primarily to the substantial increase in total revenues for the six
months ended January 31, 1999.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased
207.9% from approximately $3.8 million for the six months ended January 31, 1998
to approximately $11.7 million for the six months ended January 31, 1999. As a
percentage of revenues, these costs increased from 3.0% for the six months ended
January 31, 1998 to 4.0% for the six months ended January 31, 1999. These costs
increased primarily as a result of the Company's higher fixed asset base during
the six months ended January 31, 1999 as compared with the six months ended
January 31, 1998 due to the Company's efforts to expand its telecommunications
network infrastructure, enhance its Internet network and expand its facilities.
The Company anticipates that depreciation and amortization will continue to
increase as the Company continues to implement its growth strategy.

Income from Operations. The Company's income from operations increased
133.9% from approximately $5.9 million for the six months ended January 31, 1998
to approximately $13.8 million for the six months ended January 31, 1999. Income
from operations for the Company's telecommunications business increased to
approximately $22.4 million for the six months ended January 31, 1999 from $7.9
million for the six months ended January 31, 1998. As a percentage of
telecommunication revenues, income from operations for the telecommunications
business increased to 8.2% for the six months ended January 31, 1999 from
approximately 7.2% for the six months ended January 31, 1998.

Loss from operations for the Company's Internet access business
increased to approximately $4.1 million for the six months ended January 31,
1999 from approximately $3.0 million for the six months

11
ended January 31, 1998. The increased loss is primarily due to the decrease in
Internet access revenues reflecting the Company's decision to de-emphasize its
activities in this area.

Loss from operations of the Net2Phone division was approximately $4.5
million for the six months ended January 31, 1999, as compared to income from
operations of approximately $927,000 for the six months ended January 31, 1998.
This change is due to the substantial increase in selling, general and
administrative costs as the Company expands its Internet telephony
infrastructure and seeks to gain additional market share for its Internet
telephony products and services.

Income Taxes. The Company recorded income tax expense of $4.8 million
for the six months ended January 31, 1999. An income tax benefit related to the
tax deduction upon the exercise of stock options was recorded directly into
additional paid-in capital. The Company did not record an income tax benefit for
the six months ended January 31, 1998 as the realization of available tax losses
was not probable at that time.


Three Months Ended January 31, 1999 Compared to Three Months Ended January 31,
1998

Results of Operations

Revenues. Revenues increased 126.3% from approximately $71.0 million
for the three months ended January 31, 1998 to approximately $160.7 million for
the three months ended January 31, 1999. Telecommunications revenues increased
136.8% from approximately $63.0 million for the three months ended January 31,
1998 to approximately $149.3 million for the three months ended January 31,
1999. Internet access revenues decreased 17.0% from approximately $5.2 million
for the three months ended January 31, 1998 to approximately $4.3 million for
the three months ended January 31, 1999, reflecting the Company's decision to
de-emphasize its activities in this area. Internet telephony revenues increased
166.6% from approximately $2.7 million for the three months ended January 31,
1998 to approximately $7.2 million for the three months ended January 31, 1999.

Telecommunications revenues increased primarily as a result of an
increase in minutes of use from approximately 160.4 million for the three months
ended January 31, 1998 to approximately 638.2 million for the three months ended
January 31, 1999. The increase in minutes was primarily due to the addition of
wholesale carrier service clients, increased usage by existing clients, and
increased marketing of the Company's prepaid calling cards. The addition of
wholesale carrier services clients and the increased use by existing clients
resulted in an increase in wholesale carrier services revenues of 43.1%, from
approximately $38.3 million for the three months ended January 31, 1998 to
approximately $54.8 million for the three months ended January 31, 1999. As a
percentage of telecommunications revenues, wholesale carrier service revenues
decreased from approximately 60.7% to 36.7%, primarily due to the significant
increase in prepaid calling card revenues both in real dollars and as a
percentage of overall telecommunications revenues. Revenues from sales of
prepaid calling cards increased 375.7% from approximately $18.1 million for the
three months ended January 31, 1998 to approximately $86.1 million for the three
months ended January 31, 1999 as a result of increased marketing efforts and the
Company's purchase of a majority interest in Union Telecard Alliance, LLC, a
prepaid calling card distributor in May 1998. As a percentage of
telecommunications revenues, prepaid calling card revenues increased from
approximately 28.7% to 57.7%. As a percentage of telecommunications revenues,
international retail services revenues (which consist primarily of call
reorigination services) decreased from approximately 8.5% to 4.0%.

As a percentage of total revenues, Internet access revenues decreased
from approximately 7.3% for the three months ended January 31, 1998 to
approximately 2.7% for the three months ended January 31, 1999. This decrease
was due to the substantial increase in telecommunications revenues as a
percentage of total revenues, as well as a dollar decrease in Internet access
revenues due to a decrease in total dial-up subscribers.

12
Internet telephony revenues as a percentage of total revenues increased
from 3.8% for the three months ended January 31, 1998 to 4.5% for the three
months ended January 31, 1999. The increase in Internet telephony revenues was
primarily due to an increase in billed-minute usage resulting from increased
marketing of the Company's Internet telephony products and services.

Direct Cost of Revenues. The Company's direct cost of revenues
increased by 146.3%, from approximately $51.4 million in the three months ended
January 31, 1998 to approximately $126.6 million in the three months ended
January 31, 1999. As a percentage of total revenues, these costs increased from
72.5% for the three months ended January 31, 1998 to 78.8% for the three months
ended January 31, 1999. The dollar increase is due primarily to increases in
underlying carrier and connectivity costs, as the Company's telecommunications
minutes of use, and associated revenues, grew substantially. As a percentage of
total revenues, the increase in direct costs reflects lower gross margins
associated with wholesale carrier services and prepaid calling card services as
compared with international retail and Internet access services. Gross margins
were also adversely affected by delayed network deployment.

Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and
administrative costs increased 71.2% from approximately $13.9 million in the
three months ended January 31, 1998 to approximately $23.8 million in the three
months ended January 31, 1999. As a percentage of total revenues, these costs
decreased from 19.6% for the three months ended January 31, 1998 to 14.8% for
the three months ended January 31, 1999. The increase in these costs in dollar
terms is due primarily to increased sales and marketing efforts for retail
services, including prepaid calling cards, domestic and international long
distance, Net2Phone and Net2Phone Direct. As a percentage of total revenues, the
decrease was due primarily to the substantial increase in total revenues for the
three months ended January 31, 1999.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased
215.0% from approximately $2.0 million for the three months ended January 31,
1998 to approximately $6.3 million for the three months ended January 31, 1999.
As a percentage of revenues, these costs increased from 2.9% for the three
months ended January 31, 1998 to 3.9% for the three months ended January 31,
1999. These costs increased primarily as a result of the Company's higher fixed
asset base during the three months ended January 31, 1999 as compared with the
three months ended January 31, 1998 due to the Company's efforts to expand its
telecommunications network infrastructure, enhance its Internet network and
expand its facilities. The Company anticipates that depreciation and
amortization will continue to increase as the Company continues to implement its
growth strategy.

Income from Operations. The Company's income from operations increased
13.9% from approximately $3.6 million for the three months ended January 31,
1998 to approximately $4.1 million for the three months ended January 31, 1999.
Income from operations for the Company's telecommunications business increased
to approximately $9.1 million for the three months ended January 31, 1999 from
$4.8 million for the three months ended January 31, 1998. As a percentage of
telecommunication revenues, income from operations for the telecommunications
business decreased to 6.1% for the three months ended January 31, 1999 from
approximately 7.5% for the three months ended January 31, 1998 due to decreased
margins in the carrier wholesale and prepaid calling card businesses.

Loss from operations for the Company's Internet access business
increased to approximately $2.4 million for the three months ended January 31,
1999 from approximately $1.4 million for the three months ended January 31,
1998. The increased loss is primarily due to the decrease in Internet access
revenues reflecting the Company's decision to de-emphasize its activities in
this area.

Loss from operations of the Net2Phone division was approximately $2.6
million for the three months ended January 31, 1999, as compared to income from
operations of approximately $280,000 for the three months ended January 31,
1998. This change is due to the substantial increase in selling, general and
administrative costs as the Company expands its Internet telephony
infrastructure and seeks to gain additional market share for its Internet
telephony products and services.

Income Taxes. The Company recorded income tax expense of $1.4 million
for the three months ended January 31, 1999. An income tax benefit related to
the tax deduction upon the exercise of stock

13
options was recorded directly into additional paid-in capital. The Company did
not record an income tax benefit for the three months ended January 31, 1998 as
the realization of available tax losses was not probable at that time.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, the Company has satisfied its cash requirements through a
combination of cash flow from operating activities, sales of equity securities
and borrowings from third parties. The Company received approximately $1.5
million upon the exercise of stock options and warrants in the six months ended
January 31, 1999.

As of January 31, 1999, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and
marketable securities of $139.9 million and working capital of approximately
$146.2 million. The Company generated positive cash flow from operating
activities of approximately $4.6 million during the six months ended January 31,
1999, compared with negative cash flow from operating activities of
approximately $2.9 million during the six months ended January 31, 1998. The
Company's cash flow from operations varies significantly from quarter to
quarter, depending upon the timing of operating cash receipts and payments,
especially accounts receivable and accounts payable. Accounts receivable,
accounts payable and accrued expenses have increased from period to period as
the Company's businesses have grown.

The Company's capital expenditures increased from approximately $12.7
million in the six months ended January 31, 1998 to approximately $22.2 million
in the six months ended January 31, 1999, as the Company expanded its
international and domestic telecommunications network infrastructure.

The Company experiences intense competition in its telecommunications
business. Increased competition in the telecommunications industry could force
the Company to reduce the prices that it charges for its services, or its profit
margins. Under such circumstances, the Company's cash flows from operations
would be materially adversely affected.

The Company intends to, where appropriate, make strategic acquisitions
to increase its telecommunications customer base. The Company may also make
strategic acquisitions related to its Internet telephony business. From time to
time, the Company evaluates potential acquisitions of companies, technologies,
products and customer accounts that complement the Company's businesses.

The Company believes that, based upon its present business plan, the
Company's existing cash resources, and expected cash flow from operating
activities, will be sufficient to meet its currently anticipated working capital
and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months. If the
Company's growth exceeds current expectations or if the Company acquires the
business or assets of another company, or if the Company's cash flow from
operations after the end of such period is insufficient to meet its working
capital and capital expenditure requirements, the Company will need to raise
additional capital from equity or debt sources. There can be no assurance that
the Company will be able to raise such capital on favorable terms or at all. If
the Company is unable to obtain such additional capital, the Company may be
required to reduce the scope of its anticipated expansion, which could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition or
results of operations.

Year 2000

The Company is conducting a review of its computer hardware and
software to ensure that its computer-related applications will not fail or
create erroneous results as a result of the use of two digits in various program
date fields (the "Year 2000 issue"). The Company's cost of addressing the Year
2000 issue is not expected to be material to its operations or financial
position. However, the consequences of an incomplete or untimely resolution of
the Year 2000 issue could be expected to have a material adverse effect on the
financial results of the Company; in the absence of such a resolution, the
ability of the Company to route its traffic in a cost effective manner, to
deliver a material portion of its services, to properly obtain payment for such
services, and/or to maintain accurate records of its business and

14
operations, could be substantially impaired until such issue is remediated. The
Company may become liable for substantial damages in the event that, as a result
of the Year 2000 issue, it fails to deliver any services that it is obligated to
provide. However, the Company expects that its Year 2000 issues will be
satisfactorily resolved before the year 2000.

The Company is conducting a comprehensive review of its computer
systems to ensure that all such systems are, or prior to the end of 1999 will
be, Year 2000 compliant. The Company's plan for its Year 2000 project includes
the following phases: (i) conducting a comprehensive inventory of the Company's
internal systems, including information technology systems and non-information
technology systems (which include switching, billing and other platforms and
electrical systems) and the systems acquired or to be acquired by the Company
from third parties, (ii) assessing and prioritizing any required remediation,
(iii) remediating any problems by repairing or, if appropriate, replacing the
non-compliant systems, (iv) testing all remediated systems for Year 2000
compliance and (v) developing contingency plans that may be employed in the
event that any system used by the Company is unexpectedly affected by a
previously unanticipated problem relating to the Year 2000. The Company
currently expects to complete all of the phases of this process and that all of
its computer systems will be fully Year 2000 compliant before the end of 1999.

The Company has completed a number of acquisitions during its recent
fiscal years, and is in the process of integrating the systems of the acquired
businesses into its operations. Those systems are included in the Company's Year
2000 review and remediation project. During the process of evaluating businesses
for any potential acquisition, and after any such acquisitions, the Company will
evaluate the extent of the Year 2000 problems associated with such acquisitions
and the cost and timing of remediation. No assurance can be given, however, that
the systems of any acquired business will be Year 2000 compliant when acquired
or that they will be capable of timely remediation.

In addition to assessing its own systems, the Company is conducting an
external review of its customers and suppliers, and any other third parties with
which it does business, including equipment and systems providers and other
telecommunications service providers, to determine their vulnerability to Year
2000 problems and any potential impact on the Company. In particular, the
Company may experience problems to the extent that other telecommunications
carriers whose services are resold by the Company or to which the Company sends
traffic for termination are not Year 2000 compliant. The Company's ability to
determine the ability of these third parties to address issues relating to the
Year 2000 problem is necessarily limited. To the extent that a limited number of
carriers experience disruptions in service due to the Year 2000 issue, the
Company believes that it will be able to obtain service from alternate carriers.
However, the Company's ability to provide certain services to customers in
selected geographic locations may be limited. There can be no assurance that
such problems will not have a material adverse effect on the Company.

In addition, the Company is currently in the process of developing
contingency plans with regard to potential Year 2000 problems. The Company
believes that, in the event that one or more of its systems is impaired due to
unanticipated Year 2000 issues, its contingency plans will enable it to
temporarily conduct its operations on a modified basis until such impaired
systems are remediated. There can be no assurances that the Company's suppliers
and customers will achieve full Year 2000 compliance before the end of 1999 or
that the Company will develop or implement effective contingency plans on a
timely basis. A failure of the Company's computer systems or the failure of the
Company's suppliers or customers to effectively upgrade their software and
systems for transition to the year 2000 could have a material adverse effect on
the Company's business, financial conditions and results of operations.

To date, the Company has incurred expenses of less than $1.0 million in
connection with its remediation of Year 2000 related issues. No assurance can be
given, however, that the systems of any acquired business will be Year 2000
compliant when acquired or that they will be capable of timely remediation. The
Company does not expect to incur significant costs to become Year 2000
compliant, although the Company's evaluation of the Year 2000 problem is not yet
complete and actual costs may be significantly higher. In particular, such costs
could be higher if certain suppliers of the Company fail to provide Year 2000
related updates to certain switching products purchased by the Company without
charge

15
in the manner that is currently expected. Costs associated with Year 2000
remediation are expensed by the Company when incurred.

European Currency Conversion

Beginning in January 1999, a new currency called the "euro" was introduced
in certain Economic and Monetary Union ("EMU") countries. Beginning in 2002, all
EMU countries are expected to operate with the euro as their single currency.
Uncertainty exists as to the effect the euro currency will have on the market
for international telecommunications services. Additionally, all of the final
rules and regulations have not yet been defined and finalized by the European
Commission with regard to the euro currency. The Company has not yet completed
its assessment of the effect that the introduction of the euro will have on its
business, operations and sales.
