                    NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)

1.   Basis of Presentation

     Bell Atlantic - West Virginia, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Bell
Atlantic Corporation (Bell Atlantic). The accompanying unaudited condensed
financial statements have been prepared based upon Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) rules that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. These
financial statements reflect all adjustments that are necessary for a fair
presentation of results of operations and financial position for the interim
periods shown including normal recurring accruals. The results for the interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. For a more
complete discussion of significant accounting policies and certain other
information, you should refer to the financial statements included in our 1999
Annual Report on Form 10-K.

     We have reclassified certain amounts from prior year's data to conform to
the 2000 presentation.

2.   Dividend

     On May 1, 2000, we declared and paid a dividend in the amount of
$26,000,000 to Bell Atlantic.

3.   Recent Accounting Pronouncements

FASB Accounting Standard - Derivatives and Hedging Activities

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement requires that all
derivatives be measured at fair value and recognized as either assets or
liabilities on our balance sheet. Changes in the fair values of derivative
instruments will be recognized in either earnings or comprehensive income,
depending on the designated use and effectiveness of the instruments. The FASB
amended this pronouncement in June 1999 to defer the effective date of SFAS No.
133 for one year. We must adopt SFAS No. 133 no later than January 1, 2001.

     On March 3, 2000, the FASB issued a Proposed SFAS "Accounting for Certain
Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities," which would amend SFAS
No. 133. The proposed amendments address certain implementation issues and
relate to such matters as the normal purchases and normal sales exception, the
definition of interest rate risk, hedging recognized foreign-currency-
denominated debt instruments, and intercompany derivatives.

     The adoption of SFAS No. 133 will have no material effect on our results of
operations or financial condition because we currently do not enter into the use
of derivative instruments or participate in hedging activities.

FASB Interpretation - Stock Compensation

     In March 2000, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for
Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation." Interpretation No. 44 was
issued in order to clarify certain issues arising from Accounting Principles
Board (APB) Opinion No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," which was
previously issued in October 1972. Interpretation No. 44 is effective July 1,
2000, but certain conclusions cover specific events that occur either after
December 15, 1998 or January 12, 2000.

     The main issues addressed by Interpretation No. 44 are: (a) the definition
of an employee for purposes of applying APB Opinion No. 25, (b) the criteria for
determining whether a plan qualifies as a noncompensatory plan, (c) the
accounting consequence of various modifications to the terms of a previously
fixed stock option or award, and (d) the accounting for an exchange of stock
compensation awards in a business combination.

     We do not expect that Interpretation No. 44 will have a material impact on
our results of operations or financial position.

SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin - Revenue Recognition

     In December 1999, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 101,
"Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements," which currently must be adopted
by June 30, 2000. SAB No. 101 provides additional guidance on revenue
recognition, as well as criteria from when revenue is generally realized and
earned, and also requires the deferral of incremental direct selling costs. We
are currently assessing the impact of SAB No. 101 on our results of operations
and financial position.

</TABLE>

     Net income and comprehensive income were the same for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 and 1999.

5.   Commitments and Contingencies

     Various legal actions and regulatory proceedings are pending to which we
are a party. We have established reserves for specific liabilities in connection
with regulatory and legal matters that we currently deem to be probable and
estimable. We do not expect that the ultimate resolution of pending regulatory
and legal matters in future periods will have a material effect on our financial
condition, but it could have a material effect on our results of operations.

6.   Proposed Bell Atlantic - GTE Merger

     Bell Atlantic and GTE Corporation (GTE) have announced a proposed merger of
equals under a definitive merger agreement dated as of July 27, 1998. Under the
terms of the agreement, GTE shareholders will receive 1.22 shares of Bell
Atlantic common stock for each share of GTE common stock that they own. Bell
Atlantic shareholders will continue to own their existing shares after the
merger.

     It is expected that the merger will qualify as a pooling of interests,
which means that for accounting and financial reporting purposes the companies
will be treated as if they had always been combined. At annual meetings held in
May 1999, the shareholders of each company approved the merger. The completion
of the merger is subject to a number of conditions, including certain regulatory
approvals (all of which have been obtained except that of the Federal
Communications Commission) and receipt of opinions that the merger will be tax-
free.

     The companies are targeting completion of the merger in the second quarter
of 2000. In April 2000, Bell Atlantic announced that the combined company will
be called Verizon Communications.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations
            (Abbreviated pursuant to General Instruction H(2).)

     This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements
and Notes to Financial Statements.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------

     We reported net income of $33,025,000 for the three month period ended
March 31, 2000, compared to net income of $30,593,000 for the same period in
1999.

     Our results for 1999 were affected by special items. The special items
included our allocated share of charges from Bell Atlantic Network Services,
Inc. (NSI).

Merger-related Costs

     In connection with the Bell Atlantic-NYNEX merger, which was completed in
August 1997, we recorded pre-tax transition and integration costs of $331,000 in
the first quarter of 1999. These costs were recorded in Other Operating
Expenses.

     Transition and integration costs consisted of our proportionate share of
costs associated with integrating the operations of Bell Atlantic and NYNEX,
such as systems modifications costs and advertising and branding costs.
Transition and integration costs were expensed as incurred.

LOCAL SERVICES

   2000 - 1999                        Increase
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   First Quarter               $4,607          5.2%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Local service revenues are earned from the provision of local exchange,
local private line, public telephone (pay phone) and value-added services.
Value-added services are a family of services that expand the utilization of the
network. These services include products such as Caller ID, Call Waiting and
Return Call.

     Local service revenues increased in the first quarter of 2000 primarily due
to higher usage of our network facilities. This growth was generated, in part,
by an increase in access lines in service of 4.1% from March 31, 1999. Local
service revenue growth in the first quarter of 2000 also reflects higher
customer demand and usage of our data transport and digital services, as well as
our value-added services.

     Growth in local service revenues was partially offset by lower revenue from
our pay phone services due to the increasing popularity of wireless
communications.


NETWORK ACCESS SERVICES

   2000 - 1999                        Increase
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   First Quarter               $4,384          9.3%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Network access revenues are earned from end-user subscribers and from long
distance and other competing carriers who use our local exchange facilities to
provide services to their customers. Switched access revenues are derived from
fixed and usage-based charges paid by carriers for access to our local network.
Special access revenues originate from carriers and end-users that buy dedicated
local exchange capacity to support their private networks. End-user access
revenues are earned from our customers and from resellers who purchase dial-tone
services.

     Network access revenue growth in the first quarter of 2000 was mainly
attributable to higher customer demand, as reflected by growth in access minutes
of use of 8.3% from the same period in 1999. Volume growth also reflects a
continuing expansion of the business market, particularly for high capacity data
services. In the first quarter of 2000, demand for special access services
increased, reflecting a greater utilization of our network. Higher network usage
by alternative providers of intraLATA toll services and higher end-user revenues
attributable to an increase in access lines in services further contributed to
revenue growth this year.

     In addition, network access revenues included higher revenues received from
customers for the recovery of local number portability (LNP) costs. LNP allows
customers to change local exchange carriers while maintaining their existing
telephone numbers. In December 1998, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
issued an order permitting us to recover costs incurred for LNP in the form of
monthly end-user charges for a five-year period beginning in March 1999.

     Revenue growth was partially offset by price reductions associated with a
federal price cap filing and other regulatory decisions. The FCC regulates the
rates that we charge long distance carriers and end-user subscribers for
interstate access services. We are required to file new access rates with the
FCC each year. In July 1999, we implemented interstate price decreases of
approximately $800,000 on an annual basis in connection with the FCC's Price Cap
Plan. The rates included in our July 1999 filing will be in effect through June
2000. Interstate price decreases were $2,300,000 on an annual basis for the
period July 1998 through June 1999. The rates include amounts necessary to
recover our contribution to the FCC's universal service fund which are subject
to adjustment every quarter due to potential increases or decreases in our
contribution to the fund. Our contributions to the universal service fund are
included in Other Operating Expenses. As a result of a U.S. Court of Appeals
decision last year, our contributions to the universal service fund were reduced
by approximately $2,100,000 annually beginning November 1, 1999, and our
interstate access rates were reduced accordingly because we will no longer have
to recover these contributions in our rates.

LONG DISTANCE SERVICES

   2000 - 1999                       (Decrease)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   First Quarter                $(911)        (10.8)%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Long distance revenues are earned primarily from calls made to points
outside a customer's local calling area, but within our service area (intraLATA
toll). IntraLATA toll calls originate and terminate within the same LATA, but
generally cover a greater distance than a local call. These services are
regulated by the West Virginia Public Service Commission (PSC) except where they
cross-state lines. Other long distance services that we provide include 800
services and Wide Area Telephone Service (WATS).

     The decline in long distance revenues in the first quarter of 2000 was
principally caused by the competitive effects of presubscription, which enables
customers to make intraLATA toll calls using a competing carrier without having
to dial an access code. The negative effect of presubscription on long distance
revenues was partially mitigated by increased network access services for usage
of our network by alternative service providers. In response to presubscription,
we have implemented customer win-back and retention initiatives that include
toll calling discount packages and product bundling offers. These revenue
reductions were partially offset by additional revenue generated by higher
calling volumes.


ANCILLARY SERVICES

   2000 -1999                        Increase
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   First Quarter                 $96          .9%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Our ancillary services include such services as billing and collections for
long distance carriers and affiliates, facilities rentals to affiliates and
nonaffiliates, collocation for competitive local exchange carriers, usage of
separately priced (unbundled) components of our network by competitive local
exchange carriers, voice messaging, customer premises equipment (CPE) and wiring
and maintenance services, and sales of materials and supplies to affiliates.
Ancillary services revenues also include fees paid by customers for
nonpublication of telephone numbers and multiple white page listings and fees
paid by an affiliate for usage of our directory listings.

     Ancillary services revenues increased the first quarter of 2000 due to
higher demand for CPE services provided to government customers and for voice
messaging services, as well as higher facilities rental revenues received from
affiliates. Revenue growth was also attributable to higher payments received
from competitive local exchange carriers for interconnection of their networks
with our network. These increases were substantially offset by lower revenues
from our billing and collection services.

EMPLOYEE COSTS

   2000 - 1999                       (Decrease)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   First Quarter              $(2,966)        (12.6)%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Employee costs consist of salaries, wages and other employee compensation,
employee benefits and payroll taxes paid directly by us. Similar costs incurred
by employees of NSI, who provide centralized services on a contract basis, are
allocated to us and are included in Other Operating Expenses.

     Employee costs decreased in the first quarter of 2000 primarily as a result
of lower pension and benefit costs and the effect of lower work force levels.
The decline in pension and benefit costs was due to favorable pension plan
investment returns and changes in actuarial assumptions. These factors were
partially offset by changes in certain plan provisions, including a previously
reported amendment to our management cash balance plan and a special lump sum
pension payment to management and associate retirees.


DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

   2000 - 1999                        Increase
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   First Quarter                 $469          1.5%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Depreciation and amortization expense increased in the first quarter of
2000 over the same period in 1999 principally as a result of growth in
depreciable telephone plant and changes in the mix of plant assets. The growth
in telephone plant was largely attributable to increased capital expenditures
for software and hardware to support the expansion of our network. These factors
were partially offset by the effect of lower rates of depreciation and
amortization.


OTHER OPERATING EXPENSES

   2000 - 1999                       (Decrease)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   First Quarter                 $(20)         --%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Other operating expenses consist of contract services including centralized
services expenses allocated from NSI, rent, network software costs, operating
taxes other than income, the provision for uncollectible accounts receivable,
and other costs.

     The decrease in other operating expenses in the first quarter of 2000 was
largely attributable to a reduction in centralized services expenses allocated
from NSI, primarily as a result of lower employee costs incurred by NSI. These
decreases were substantially offset by higher costs for uncollectible accounts
receivable associated with our billing and collection services and higher costs
associated with repair and maintenance activity.

   First Quarter                 $507          --%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     The change in other income, net, was primarily attributable to additional
interest income associated with the settlement of a tax-related matter in the
first quarter of 2000.

   2000 - 1999                        Increase
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   First Quarter                 $140          3.4%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Interest expense includes costs associated with borrowings and capital
leases, net of interest capitalized as a cost of acquiring or constructing plant
assets.

     Interest expense increased in the first quarter of 2000 over the same
period in 1999 primarily due to higher levels of average short-term debt with an
affiliate and higher interest rates associated with this debt. These factors
were partially offset by higher capitalized interest costs resulting from higher
levels of average telephone plant under construction.


EFFECTIVE INCOME TAX RATES

   Three Months Ended March 31,
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   2000                                40.7%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   1999                                31.5%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     The effective income tax rate is the provision for income taxes as a
percentage of income before the provision for income taxes. Our effective income
tax rate was higher in the first quarter of 2000 principally due to state income
tax benefits recorded in the first quarter of 1999.



FINANCIAL CONDITION
-------------------

     We use the net cash generated from operations and from external financing
to fund capital expenditures for network expansion and modernization, and to pay
dividends. While current liabilities exceeded current assets at both March 31,
2000 and 1999 and December 31, 1999, our sources of funds, primarily from
operations and, to the extent necessary, from readily available financing
arrangements with an affiliate, are sufficient to meet ongoing operating
requirements. Management expects that presently foreseeable capital requirements
will continue to be financed primarily through internally generated funds.
Additional long-term debt may be needed to fund development activities or to
maintain our capital structure to ensure financial flexibility.

     As of March 31, 2000, we had $2,050,000 of an unused line of credit with an
affiliate, Bell Atlantic Network Funding Corporation. In addition, we had
$50,000,000 remaining under a shelf registration statement filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission for the issuance of unsecured debt
securities. Our debt securities continue to be accorded high ratings by primary
rating agencies. After the announcement of the Bell Atlantic - GTE merger, the
rating agencies placed our ratings under review for potential downgrade.

     Our debt ratio was 45.9% at March 31, 2000, compared to 45.3% at March 31,
1999 and 48.2% at December 31, 1999.

     On May 1, 2000, we declared and paid a dividend in the amount of
$26,000,000 to Bell Atlantic.

OTHER MATTERS
-------------

FCC Regulation and Interstate Rates

Price Caps

     As previously reported, in May 1999, the U. S. Court of Appeals reversed
the FCC order that adopted the current 6.5% productivity factor applied to
interstate access rates, but granted the FCC a stay of its order until April 1,
2000. The Court has further extended the stay until June 30, 2000 to allow the
FCC time to consider an industry proposal to further restructure access rates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

FASB Accounting Standard - Derivatives and Hedging Activities

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement requires that all
derivatives be measured at fair value and recognized as either assets or
liabilities on our balance sheet. Changes in the fair values of the derivative
instruments will be recognized in either earnings or comprehensive income,
depending on the designated use and effectiveness of the instruments. The FASB
amended this pronouncement in June 1999 to defer the effective date of SFAS No.
133 for one year. We must adopt SFAS No. 133 no later than January 1, 2001.

     On March 3, 2000, the FASB issued a Proposed SFAS "Accounting for Certain
Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities," which would amend SFAS
No. 133. The proposed amendments address certain implementation issues and
relate to such matters as the normal purchases and normal sales exception, the
definition of interest rate risk, hedging recognized foreign-currency-
denominated debt instruments, and intercompany derivatives.

     The adoption of SFAS No. 133 will have no material effect on our results of
operations or financial condition because we currently do not enter into the use
of derivative instruments or participate in hedging activities.

FASB Interpretation - Stock Compensation

     In March 2000, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for
Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation." Interpretation No. 44 was
issued in order to clarify certain issues arising from Accounting Principles
Board (APB) Opinion No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," which was
previously issued in October 1972. Interpretation No. 44 is effective July 1,
2000, but certain conclusions cover specific events that occur either after
December 15, 1998 or January 12, 2000.

     The main issues addressed by Interpretation No. 44 are: (a) the definition
of an employee for purposes of applying APB Opinion No. 25, (b) the criteria for
determining whether a plan qualifies as a noncompensatory plan, (c) the
accounting consequence of various modifications to the terms of a previously
fixed stock option or award, and (d) the accounting for an exchange of stock
compensation awards in a business combination.

     We do not expect that Interpretation No. 44 will have a material impact on
our results of operations or financial position.

SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin - Revenue Recognition

     In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements," which currently must be adopted by June 30, 2000. SAB No. 101
provides additional guidance on revenue recognition, as well as criteria from
when revenue is generally realized and earned, and also requires the deferral of
incremental direct selling costs. We are currently assessing the impact of SAB
No. 101 on our results of operations and financial position.
