                          (A Development Stage Company)

                     NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

              December 31, 1995 and September 30, 1996 (Unaudited)

(1)      Condensed Financial Statements

         The condensed balance sheet of Worldport Communications, Inc. (formerly
         Sage  Resources,   Inc.)  as  of  September  30,  1996,  the  condensed
         statements of operations and the condensed statements of cash flows for
         the periods ended  September  30, 1996 and 1995,  have been prepared by
         the  Company  without  audit.   In  the  opinion  of  management,   all
         adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary
         to present  fairly the financial  position,  results of operations  and
         cash flows at  September  30, 1996 and for all periods  presented  have
         been made.

         Certain information and footnote  disclosures  normally included in the
         financial  statements  prepared in accordance  with generally  accepted
         accounting  principles have been condensed or omitted.  These condensed
         financial  statements  should be read in conjunction with the financial
         statements  and  notes  thereto  included  in  Sage  Resources,  Inc.'s
         December 31, 1995,  Form 10-K.  The results of operations for the three
         month periods ended  September 30, 1996 and 1995,  are not  necessarily
         indicative of the operating results for the full years.

         The Company borrowed $500,000 from Maroon Bells Capital Partners,  Inc.
         ("Maroon Bells"), a shareholder of the Company,  and loaned this amount
         to Com Tech International Corporation ("Com Tech"). The note payable to
         Maroon Bells bears interest at 10% per annum, is  collateralized  by an
         assignment  of the Com Tech note  receivable  and is due on December 1,
         1996.

         The Com Tech note  receivable was due October 26, 1996,  bears interest
         at 10% per annum and is  collateralized by an assignment of all rights,
         title  and  interest  that  Com Tech has  pursuant  to a joint  venture
         agreement between Com Tech and Datamax de Mexico,  S.A.de C.V. The note
         is in default and represents a material credit risk. Failure to collect
         all or part of this note and accrued interest could result in a loss of
         up to $512,500  plus  collection  expenses.  The value,  if any, of the
         collateral  is unknown.  The ultimate  resolution of the matter and the
         related loss, if any, cannot presently be determined.

(2)      Change of Control and Related Transactions

         Effective  April 24, 1996 the  controlling  stockholder  of the Company
         sold 17,000  shares of its common stock and entered  15,000  additional
         shares into a voting trust agreement which  transferred  control of the
         Company  to  Exchange  Place  Capital  Partners,  LLC,  a Utah  limited
         liability company ("Exchange").

         The Company agreed to pay Exchange $110,000 for consulting services and
         granted an option to Exchange  allowing  Exchange the right to purchase
         160,000 shares of Sage's common stock for $160.

         The financial  statements as of September 30, 1996 include the issuance
         of the 160,000 shares.  The difference between the $160 option price of
         the shares and the $4,400 value of the shares determined based upon the
         price per share paid for the  4,000,000  shares  (issued  June 27, 1996
         described  below) was  accounted  for as an  expense  in the  financial
         statements  of  September  30,  1996  and  shown as  stock  issued  for
         consulting  services.  The $160  option  price has been  shown as stock
         subscriptions  receivable  at  September  30,  1996  and was  collected
         subsequent to September 30, 1996.

         Effective  June 27, 1996, the Company  issued  4,000,000  shares of its
         common stock for $110,000 in cash. Pursuant to this transaction, Maroon
         Bells and certain related parties received  sixty-one  percent (61%) of
         the issued and outstanding shares of the Company.

                                     ITEM 2

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company was formed on January 6, 1989, to evaluate, structure and complete a
merger with, or  acquisition  of, other  entities.  In October 1996, the Company
changed  its   domicile  to   Delaware   and  changed  its  name  to   Worldport
Communications, Inc.


Plan of Operations

The Company is a development stage company that has not generated revenues other
than  interest  income  since  inception.  The Company does not have any current
operations.  The Company's strategy is to develop its business through strategic
acquisitions  of   telecommunication   services  companies.   Thus,   Management
anticipates  that  the  Company  will  not earn any  revenues  until  after  the
conclusion of a merger or  acquisition,  if any.  Interest  income for the three
months ended September 30, 1996 was $12,639 compared to $148 for the same period
in 1995.  The increase was due to the interest  from the Com Tech Note which has
been accrued but has currently not yet been paid.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has limited  working  capital and is  currently  seeking  additional
equity  financing  through a private  placement  of its common stock to fund its
acquisition  of  telecommunication   services  businesses.   Failure  to  obtain
sufficient  capital could adversely affect the Company's  acquisition  strategy.
Additionally,  there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain
additional financing on reasonable terms, if at all.

On July 1, 1996 the Company  borrowed  $500,000  from Maroon  Bells (the "Maroon
Bells  Note")  and loaned  this  amount to Com Tech (the "Com Tech  Note").  The
Maroon  Bells Note bears  interest  at 10% per annum,  is  collateralized  by an
assignment  of the Com Tech Note and is due on December  1, 1996.  On October 3,
1996,  the Company was  notified by Maroon  Bells that it had  assigned  $80,000
principal  amount of the Maroon Bells Note,  to certain  offshore  entities (the
"Assignees").

The Com Tech Note was due October 26, 1996,  bears interest at 10% per annum and
is  collateralized  by an assignment of all rights,  title and interest that Com
Tech has pursuant to a joint venture  agreement  between Com Tech and DataMax de
Mexico,  S.A.deC.V.  The Com Tech Note is in default and  represents  a material
credit  risk.  Failure to collect all or part of this Note and accrued  interest
could result in a loss of up to $512,500 plus collection expenses. The value, if
any, of the collateral is unknown. The ultimate resolution of the matter and the
related loss, if any, cannot presently be determined.

On July 15, 1996, the Company  entered into certain  consulting  agreements with
various  consultants,  who at the time were also shareholders of the Company, in
which the consultants agreed to render certain  consulting  services in exchange
for a total of 650,000 shares of common stock. Two of the consultants,  Jonathan
Y. Hicks and Edward P. Mooney,  were recently appointed to serve as officers and
directors of the Company.  It is anticipated  that such shares will be issued in
November 1996.

Subsequent Events

         Change of Domicile and Reincorporation Merger

On October 1, 1996, Sage changed its state of domicile from Colorado to Delaware
through the merger of Sage into

                                        9

<PAGE>



WorldPort   Communications,   Inc.,   a   wholly   owned   Delaware   subsidiary
("WorldPort"),   with   WorldPort   being   the   surviving   corporation   (the
"Reincorporation  Merger"). As part of the Reincorporation  Merger, Sage changed
its  name  to  WorldPort  to  have a name  which  more  fully  describes  Sage's
activities in the international  telecommunications industry. Upon completion of
the  Reincorporation  Merger,  each issued and outstanding  share of Sage common
stock was automatically  converted into one share of WorldPort common stock. See
Proxy Statement attached hereto as Exhibit 22.1.

         Election of Directors and Officers

On October 1, 1996, the  shareholders  of the Company  elected Edward P. Mooney,
Jonathan Y. Hicks and Daniel P.  McGinnis as  directors  of the Company to serve
until  the  next  annual  meeting  of  shareholders  or until  their  respective
successors are elected and  qualified.  This new Board of Directors then elected
Edward  P.  Mooney  as  President  of the  Company  and  Jonathan  Y.  Hicks  as
Secretary/Treasurer  of the  Company.  See Proxy  Statement  attached  hereto as
Exhibit 22.1.


         Long-Term Incentive Plan

At October 1, 1996,  the Company  adopted  the  WorldPort  Communications,  Inc.
Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Incentive Plan") for employees and consultants of
the Company.  The Company will use the Incentive  Plan as a means to promote the
success and enhance  the value of the Company  through (i) linking the  personal
interests of its key employees  and  consultants  to those of the  shareholders,
(ii) providing  employees  with an incentive for  outstanding  performance,  and
(iii) providing the Company flexibility in its ability to attract and retain the
services of its employees and contractors.  The Incentive Plan authorizes grants
of Incentive  Stock Options,  Non-qualified  Stock Options,  Stock  Appreciation
Rights,  Restricted Stock,  Performance  Shares, and Dividend  Equivalents.  The
Company has  reserved  2,000,000  shares of  WorldPort  common  stock for use as
grants under the Incentive Plan. As of November 19, 1996, the Company has issued
stock options to certain  employees to acquire  75,000 shares of Common Stock at
$.08 per share. See Proxy Statement attached hereto as Exhibit 22.1.


         Issuance of Stock

On  October  15,  1996,  the  Company   negotiated  a  cancellation  of  certain
indebtedness with the Assignees in exchange for the issuance of 1,000,000 shares
of Company common stock, pursuant to Regulation S.

In November  1996, the Company  commenced a private  offering of up to 4,000,000
shares of common  stock for $1.50 per share  pursuant to an offering  memorandum
dated  November 1, 1996.  As of November 19, 1996,  the Company has sold 473,333
shares for a total of $710,000.


         Financial Advisory Agreement

On October 31, 1996,  the Company  entered into an agreement  with Dinton Trader
S.A.  ("Dinton Trader") under which Dinton Trader will provide certain financial
advisory  services to the Company in  exchange  for an advisory  fee of $360,000
payable no later than June 30, 1997.
