RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

     On June 13, 2001 Davel Communications, Inc. (the "Company") announced that
it has signed a letter of intent to merge with PhoneTel Technologies, Inc.
("PhoneTel") which is headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio and operates
approximately 35,000 payphones in 45 states and the District of Columbia.  The
letter of intent contemplates the execution of a definitive merger agreement and
a substantial debt restructuring for each company.  In connection with the
expected merger, PhoneTel will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Davel.  In
addition, the two companies have entered into a servicing agreement designed to
commence cost savings initiatives in advance of the closing of the merger.

     As part of the completion of the merger of the two companies (the "PhoneTel
Merger"), the senior secured creditors of both Davel and PhoneTel will exchange
a substantial amount of the combined debt for equity securities of the
respective companies and will restructure the remaining debt.  In connection
with PhoneTel's debt exchange, its senior secured lenders will own 87% of
PhoneTel's outstanding common stock immediately prior to the PhoneTel Merger,
with the remaining senior secured debt not to exceed $36.5 million (as compared
to approximately $55 million currently outstanding).  Existing holders of
PhoneTel common stock will own 9% of PhoneTel's outstanding shares, and 4% will
be reserved for PhoneTel employee stock options or other stock-based incentive
awards.  In connection with Davel's debt exchange, its senior secured lenders
will own 93% of Davel's outstanding common stock immediately prior to the
PhoneTel Merger, with the remaining senior secured debt not to exceed $63.5
million (as compared to approximately $238 million currently outstanding).
Existing stockholders of Davel common stock will own 3% of Davel's outstanding
shares and 4% of the common stock will be reserved for the issuance of stock
options or other stock-based incentive awards to Davel employees.

     Immediately following the PhoneTel merger, current PhoneTel stockholders
will own approximately 3.28% of the shares of Davel common stock and current
Davel stockholders will own approximately 1.91%.  Of the remaining shares, 4%
will be reserved for issuance of employee stock options or other stock-based
incentive awards and the companies' combined lenders will own approximately
90.81%.

     Effective with the PhoneTel Merger, the then outstanding debt of both
entities, currently in the approximate amount of $293 million, will be reduced
to $100 million in total debt of the merged entity through the debt and equity
restructuring outlined above.  Of this $100 million of restructured debt, $50
million will be amortizing term debt with interest and principal payable from
operating cash flows.  Payment of the interest and principal on the remaining
$50 million of debt will be deferred under terms to be negotiated in connection
with the definitive merger agreement.

     The PhoneTel Merger will bring together the two largest independent
payphone providers in the United States, with a combined installed base of
approximately 97,000 payphones.  The combined company is expected to realize
significant cost savings through more efficient concentration of payphone
routes, lower field operating costs and the elimination of redundant general and
administrative expenses.  Pending the PhoneTel Merger, the administrative
offices of PhoneTel and Davel will remain in Cleveland, Ohio and Tampa, Florida,
respectively.

     To accelerate the cost savings opportunities prior to the PhoneTel Merger
becoming effective, the two companies have entered into a servicing agreement.
Under this agreement, the two companies will focus on gaining operating
efficiencies via mutual servicing arrangements between their respective field
office networks on a geographic basis.

     The transaction is subject to the execution of a definitive merger
agreement, approval by the boards of directors of PhoneTel and Davel, approval
by the shareholders and existing senior secured lenders of both companies, and
the receipt of material third party and governmental approvals and consents.

     After completion of the PhoneTel Merger, John D. Chichester, President and
Chief Executive Officer of PhoneTel, will serve as the Chief Executive Officer
of the merged company and Bruce W. Renard, Davel's President, will serve as
President of the merged company.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
                   (Dollars in thousands, except share data)


1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    The accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Davel Communications, Inc.
and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June 30, 2001 and the related
consolidated statements of operations for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 2001 and 2000 and of cash flows for the six month periods ended June
30, 2001 and 2000 are unaudited.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments
necessary for a fair presentation of such consolidated financial statements have
been included.  Such adjustments consist only of normal, recurring items.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in audited
financial statements have been omitted, in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial reporting.  These interim
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and with the Company's audited
consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in the Company's Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000.  The results of operations for the
three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the full years.

    The Company was incorporated on June 9, 1998 under the laws of the state of
Delaware to effect the merger, on December 23, 1998, of Davel Communications
Group, Inc. ("Old Davel") with Peoples Telephone Company, Inc. (the "Peoples
Merger").  As a result of the Peoples Merger, the Company is the largest
domestic independent payphone service provider in the United States, with nearly
twice the number of payphones as the second largest domestic independent
payphone service provider.  The Company operates in a single business segment
within the telecommunications industry, operating, servicing and maintaining a
system of approximately 62,000 payphones in 44 states and the District of
Columbia.  The Company's headquarters is located in Tampa, Florida, with
divisional and administrative facilities in 27 geographically dispersed
locations.

     See Note 8 for discussion of a potential merger with PhoneTel Technologies,
Inc.

2.   LIQUIDITY

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a
going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has
incurred losses of approximately $111.5 million and $22.8 million for the year
ended December 31, 2000 and six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively.  These
losses were primarily attributable to increased competition from providers of
wireless communication services and the impact on the Company's revenue of
certain regulatory changes.  As of June 30, 2001, the Company had a working
capital deficit of $270.2 million and its liabilities exceeded it assets by
$209.2 million.  In addition, the Company was unable to meet its debt principal
payments of $15.7 million and interest payments of $12.5 million, which would
have been due and payable on January 12, 2001 but for the Company's execution of
the Sixth Amendment to its loan agreement, which calls for interim principal
payments of $1.1 million due on April 15, 2001 (which was made), $2.2 million
due on July 15, 2001 (which has not yet been made), $3.3 million due on October
15, 2001 and the remainder due on January 11, 2002.  The Company is in
discussions with its lenders regarding a waiver of, among other things, the July
15 and October 15 amortization payments.  The Company believes that it is likely
that the Company and its lenders will execute a written waiver of any default
effective as of no later than July 15, 2001.  See "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and
Capital Resources.  In the absence of improved operating results or cash flows,
modifications to the Senior Credit Facility, or the completion of possible
strategic combinations (including the PhoneTel Merger discussed in Note 8), the
Company will face liquidity problems and might be required to dispose of
material assets or operations to fund its operations and to meet its debt
service and other obligations.

                   (Dollars in thousands, except share data)
                                  (Continued)

There can be no assurances as to the ability of the Company to execute such
sales, or the timing thereof or the proceeds that the Company could realize from
such sales. As a result of these matters, substantial doubt exists about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.

     The Company's plans to increase liquidity include efforts to substantially
reduce costs, including through the PhoneTel Merger or alternative strategic
transactions.  Management believes this will result in expansion of its market
presence and further leveraging of its infrastructure.  In order to pursue this
strategy, the Company will need to obtain additional modifications to the Senior
Credit Facility, including forgiveness of a portion of its debt.  The Company
may also need to obtain additional debt or equity financing.  There can be no
assurance that such debt modifications or financings will be available to the
Company, or that they will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.
Further, any additional equity financing may be dilutive to existing
shareholders.

3. ACCOUNTING CHANGE - DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     Effective January 1, 2001, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"), and its corresponding amendments under
SFAS 138.  SFAS 133 requires the Company to measure all derivatives at fair
value on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.  For derivatives
designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portions of changes in fair value
of the derivative are reported in other comprehensive income ("OCI") and are
subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects earnings.
Changes in fair value of derivative instruments not designated as hedging
instruments and ineffective portions of hedges are recognized in earnings in the
current period.  The adoption of SFAS 133 at January 1, 2001, resulted in a
cumulative after tax reduction to OCI of $51,000.  For the three months and six
months ended June 30, 2001, the change in fair market value of derivative
instruments was recorded as interest expense and was not material.

4. PROVISION FOR DIAL-AROUND COMPENSATION

     On September 20, 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (the "FCC")
adopted rules in a docket entitled IN THE MATTER OF IMPLEMENTATION OF THE
PAYPHONE RECLASSIFICATION AND COMPENSATION PROVISIONS OF THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS
ACT OF 1996, FCC 96-388 (the "1996 Payphone Order"), implementing the payphone
provisions of Section 276 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the "Telcom
Act").  The 1996 Payphone Order, which became effective November 7, 1996,
initially mandated dial-around compensation for both access code calls and 800
subscriber calls at a flat rate of $45.85 per payphone per month (131 calls
multiplied by $0.35 per call). Commencing October 7, 1997, and ending October 6,
1998, the $45.85 per payphone per month rate was to transition to a per-call
system at the rate of $0.35 per call.  Several parties filed petitions for
judicial review of certain of the FCC regulations including the dial-around
compensation rate.  On July 1, 1997, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District
of Columbia Circuit (the "Court") responded to appeals related to the 1996
Payphone Order by remanding certain issues to the FCC for reconsideration.
These issues included, among other things, the manner in which the FCC
established the dial-around compensation for 800 subscriber and access code
calls, the manner in which the FCC established the interim dial-around
compensation plan and the basis upon which interexchange carriers (the "IXCs")
would be required to compensate payphone service providers (the "PSPs").  The
Court remanded the issue to the FCC for further consideration, and clarified on
September 16, 1997 that it had vacated certain portions of the FCC's 1996
Payphone Order, including the dial-around compensation rate.

                                       7
<PAGE>

                 DAVEL COMMUNICATIONS, INC. AND SUBISIDIARIES
            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
                   (Dollars in thousands, except share data)
                                  (Continued)

Specifically, the Court determined that the FCC did not adequately justify (i)
the per-call compensation rate for 800 subscriber and access code calls at the
deregulated local coin rate of $0.35, because it did not sufficiently justify
its conclusion that the costs of local coin calls are similar to those of 800
subscriber and access code calls; and (ii) the allocation of the payment
obligation among the IXCs for the period November 7, 1996 to October 6, 1997.

     In accordance with the Court's mandate, on October 9, 1997, the FCC adopted
and released its SECOND REPORT AND ORDER in the same docket, FCC 97-371 (the
"1997 Payphone Order").  This order addressed the per-call compensation rate
for 800 subscriber and access code calls that originate from payphones in light
of the decision of the Court which vacated and remanded certain portions of the
FCC's 1996 Payphone Order. The FCC concluded that the rate for per-call
compensation for 800 subscriber and access code calls from payphones is the
deregulated local coin rate adjusted for certain cost differences. Accordingly,
the FCC established a rate of $0.284 ($0.35-$0.066) per call for the first two
years of per-call compensation (October 7, 1997 through October 6, 1999).  The
IXCs were required to pay this per-call amount to PSPs, including the Company,
beginning October 7, 1997.

     On March 9, 1998, the FCC issued a Memorandum Opinion and Order, FCC 98-
481, which extended and waived certain requirements concerning the provision by
the LECs of payphone-specific coding digits which identify a call as originating
from a payphone. Without the transmission of payphone-specific coding digits,
some of the IXCs have claimed they are unable to identify a call as a payphone
call eligible for dial-around compensation. With the stated purpose of ensuring
the continued payment of dial-around compensation, the FCC, by Memorandum and
Order issued on April 3, 1998, left in place the requirement for payment of per-
call compensation for payphones on lines that do not transmit the requisite
payphone-specific coding digits, but gave the IXCs a choice for computing the
amount of compensation for payphones on LEC lines not transmitting the payphone-
specific coding digits of either accurately computing per-call compensation from
their databases or paying per-phone, flat-rate compensation computed by
multiplying the $0.284 per call rate by the nationwide average number of 800
subscriber and access code calls placed from RBOC payphones for corresponding
payment periods. Accurate payments made at the flat rate are not subject to
subsequent adjustment for actual call counts from the applicable payphone.

     On May 15, 1998, the Court again remanded the per-call compensation rate to
the FCC for further explanation without vacating the $0.284 per call rate. The
Court opined that the FCC had failed to explain adequately its derivation of the
$0.284 default rate. The Court stated that any resulting overpayment would be
subject to refund and directed the FCC to conclude its proceedings within a six-
month period from the effective date of the Court's decision.

     In response to the Court's second remand, the FCC conducted further
proceedings and sought additional comment from interested parties to address the
relevant issues posed by the Court.  On February 4, 1999, the FCC released its
Third Report and Order, and Order on Reconsideration of the Second Report and
Order (the "1999 Payphone Order"), in which the FCC abandoned its efforts to
derive a "market-based" default dial-around compensation rate and instead
adopted a "cost-based" rate of $0.24 per dial-around call.

     On June 16, 2000, the Court affirmed the 1999 Payphone Order setting a 24-
cent dial-around compensation rate. On all the issues, including those raised by
the IXCs and the payphone providers, the court applied the "arbitrary and
capricious" standard of review, and found that the FCC's rulings were lawful and
sustainable under that standard. As a result of the Court's June 16, 2000
decision, the 24-cent dial-around compensation rate is likely to remain in place
until at least the end of 2001, when the FCC has promised to

                                       8

                                  (Continued)

complete a third-year review of the rate. Certain payphone providers have filed
with the FCC a Petition for Reconsideration of the 1999 Payphone Order. This
Petition is still pending and has yet to be ruled on by the FCC. In view of the
Court's affirmation of the 1999 Payphone Order, it is unlikely that the FCC will
adopt material changes to the key components of the Order pursuant to the
pending Reconsideration Petition, although no assurances can be given.

     On April 5, 2001, the FCC released an order that is expected to have a
significant impact on the obligations of telecommunications carriers to pay
dial-around compensation to PSPs.  The effect of the decision is to clarify that
the first carrier to handle a dial-around call originating from a pay telephone
has the obligation to track and pay compensation on the call, regardless of
whether other carriers may subsequently transport or complete the call.  Under
the FCC ruling, implementation of this system modification is scheduled to occur
on November 27, 2001.  The Company believes that this modification to the dial-
around compensation system will result in a significant increase to the number
of calls for which the Company is able to collect such compensation. Because,
however, the FCC ruling is potentially subject to administrative reconsideration
or judicial appeal and the system modification is as yet untested, no assurances
can be given as to the precise timing or magnitude of revenue impact that may
flow from the decision.

     The new 24-cent rate became effective April 21, 1999, and will serve as the
default rate through January 31, 2002.  The new rate will also be applied
retroactively to the period beginning on October 7, 1997, less a $0.002 amount
to account for FLEX ANI payphone tracking costs, for a net compensation of
$0.238.  The 1999 Payphone Order deferred a final ruling on the interim period
(November 7, 1996 to October 6, 1997) treatment to a later, as yet unreleased,
order; however, it appears that the $0.238 rate will be applied to the period
from November 7, 1996 to October 6, 1997.  Upon establishment of the interim
period rate, the FCC has further ruled that a true-up may be made for all
payments or credits (with applicable interest) due and owing between the IXCs
and the PSPs, including the Company, for the payment period commencing on
November 7, 1996 through the effective date of the new $0.24 per call rate.  It
is possible that the final implementation of the 1999 Payphone Order, including
resolution of this retroactive adjustment and the outcome of any related
administrative or judicial review, could have a material adverse effect on the
Company. Based on the FCC's tentative conclusion in the 1997 Payphone Order, the
Company during 1997 adjusted the amounts of dial-around compensation previously
recorded relating to the period November 7, 1996 to June 30, 1997 from the
initial $45.85 rate to $37.20 ($0.284 per call multiplied by 131 calls).  As a
result of this adjustment, the provision recorded for the year ended December
31, 1997 relating to reduced dial-around compensation is approximately $3.3
million.  Based on the reduction in the per-call compensation rate in the 1999
Payphone Order, the Company further reduced non-coin revenues by $9.0 million
for 1998.  The adjustment included approximately $6.0 million to adjust revenue
recorded during the period November 7, 1996 to October 6, 1997 from $37.20 per-
phone per-month to $31.18 per phone per month ($0.238 per call multiplied by 131
calls). The remaining $3.0 million of the adjustment was to adjust revenues
recorded during the period October 7, 1997 to December 31, 1998 to actual dial-
around call volumes for the period multiplied by $0.238 per call. The Company
recorded dial-around compensation revenue, net of adjustments of approximately
$10.0 million for the first six months of 2001 and $22.9 million, $35.9 million,
and $27.2 million for 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively.

     The Company's counsel, Dickstein, Shapiro, Morin & Oshensky, is of the
opinion that the Company is legally entitled to fair compensation under the
Telcom Act for dial-around calls the Company delivered to any carrier during the
period November 7, 1996 to October 6, 1997. Based on the information available,
the Company believes that the minimum amount it is entitled to as fair
compensation under the Telcom Act for the period November 7, 1996 to October 6,
1997 is $31.18 per payphone per month and the Company, based on

                                  (Continued)

the information available to it, does not believe that it is reasonably possible
that the amount will be materially less than $31.18 per payphone per month that
it has recorded as discussed above. While the amount of $0.24 per call ($0.238
for retroactive periods) constitutes the Company's position of the appropriate
level of fair compensation, certain IXCs have asserted in the past, are
asserting, and are expected to assert in the future that the appropriate level
of fair compensation should be lower than $0.24 per call. If the level of fair
compensation is ultimately determined to be an amount less than $0.24 per call,
such determination could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results
of operations and financial position. The consolidated financial statements do
not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.

5. EARNINGS PER SHARE

     The treasury stock method was used to determine the dilutive effect of the
options and warrants on earnings per share data. Diluted loss per share is equal
to basic loss per share because the exercise of the Company's 1,405,000
outstanding options and 427,323 warrants outstanding would be anti-dilutive for
all periods presented.  In accordance with SFAS No. 128 and the requirement to
report "Earnings Per Share" data, the basic and diluted loss from continuing
operations per weighted average common shares outstanding were $(0.91) and
$(1.05) for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively, and
$(2.04) and $(1.90) for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000,
respectively.

6. COMMITMENTS & CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

     In December 1995, Cellular World, Inc. filed suit in Dade County Circuit
Court against the Company's affiliates, Peoples Telephone and PTC Cellular,
Inc., alleging tortious interference with Cellular World's trade secrets.  The
trial court previously entered partial summary judgment in favor of the Company
as to the plaintiff's trade secrets claim, leaving the tortious interference
claim for trial.

     Trial on the tortious interference claim commenced on February 29, 2000.
The Company had several meritorious legal and factual defenses to plaintiff's
claims. Although the Company believed that it had a reasonable possibility of
prevailing at trial or through an appeal, if necessary, the case presented
significant risks to the Company because the plaintiff intended to ask the jury
to award damages of up to $18 million. Following three days of trial, the
Company and Cellular World agreed to settle and resolve the dispute in its
entirety. Pursuant to the parties' agreement, the Company agreed to pay Cellular
World a total of $1.5 million as follows: (a) $500,000.00 by March 9, 2000; (b)
$250,000.00 by January 5, 2001; and (c) $750,000.00 in 15 equal monthly
installments of $50,000.00 commencing on January 15, 2001 (the "Settlement
Agreement"). Due to the Company's default under the Settlement Agreement, the
parties entered into discussions for purposes of negotiating a revised payment
schedule. Notwithstanding the parties' negotiations, on April 12, 2001, Cellular
World obtained a judgment against Davel Communications Group, Inc., PTC
Cellular, Inc., and Peoples Telephone Company, Inc. in the amount of $750,000.00
plus interest in accordance with the Settlement Agreement (the "Judgment"). On
April 26, 2001, Cellular World obtained an amended judgment, which substituted
Davel Communications, Inc. for Davel Communications Group, Inc. under the
Judgment. On or about June 11, 2001, the parties agreed to the following payment
schedule to satisfy the Judgment: $300,000 by June 15, 2001; $250,000 by July
15, 2001; $50,000 by August 15, 2001; $50,000 by September 15, 2001; and
$100,000, plus post-judgment interest, by October 15, 2001. The Company has
timely made all payments to date under this arrangement.

     On September 29, 1998, the Company announced that it was exercising its
contractual rights to terminate a merger agreement (the "Original Davel/PhoneTel
Merger Agreement") with PhoneTel, based on breaches of representations,
warranties and covenants by PhoneTel. On October 1, 1998, the Company filed a
lawsuit in Delaware Chancery Court seeking damages, rescission of the Original
Davel/PhoneTel Merger Agreement and a declaratory judgment that such breaches
occurred. On October 27, 1998, PhoneTel answered the complaint and filed a
counterclaim against the Company alleging that the Original Davel/PhoneTel
Merger Agreement had been wrongfully terminated. At the same time, PhoneTel also
filed a third party claim against Peoples Telephone (acquired by the Company on
December 23, 1998) alleging that Peoples Telephone wrongfully caused the
termination of the Original Davel/PhoneTel Merger Agreement. The counterclaim
and third party claim seek specific performance by the Company of the
transactions contemplated by the Original Davel/PhoneTel Merger Agreement and
damages and other equitable relief from the Company and Peoples Telephone. The
Company and PhoneTel currently anticipate settling this litigation in connection
with the announced proposed combination of the companies.

     In December 1999, the Company and its affiliate Telaleasing Enterprises,
Inc. were sued in the United States District Court, Central District of
California, by Telecommunications Consultant Group, Inc. ("TCG") and U.S.
Telebrokers, Inc. ("UST"), two payphone consulting companies which allege to
have assisted the Company in obtaining a telephone placement agreement with CSK
Auto, Inc. The suit alleges that the Company breached its commission agreement
with the plaintiffs based on the Company's alleged wrongful rescission of its
agreement with CSK Auto, Inc. Plaintiffs' amended complaint alleges damages in
excess of $700,000. The Company moved to dismiss the complaint, and, on August
24, 2000, the Court denied the Company's motion. The Company subsequently
answered the complaint and asserted a counterclaim, seeking declaratory relief.
On October 13, 2000, plaintiffs answered the counterclaim, denying its material
allegations. Discovery has commenced in the matter; however, the matter remains
in its early stages, and the Company intends to vigorously defend itself in the
case. While the Company believes it possesses certain meritorious defenses to
the claims, the matter remains in its initial stages, and, accordingly, the
Company cannot at this time predict its likelihood of success on the merits.

     In March 2000, the Company and its affiliate, Telaleasing Enterprises,
Inc., were sued in a related action in Maricopa County, Arizona Superior Court
by CSK Auto, Inc. ("CSK"). The suit alleges that the Company breached a location
agreement between the parties. CSK's complaint alleges damages in excess of $5
million. The Company removed the case to the U.S. District Court for Arizona and
moved to have the matter transferred to facilitate consolidation with the
related case in California brought by TCG and UST. On October 16, 2000, the U.S.
District Court for Arizona denied the Company's transfer motion and ordered the
case remanded back to Arizona state court. On November 13, 2000, the Company
filed its Notice of Appeal of the remand order to the United States Court of
Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. The appeal and underlying suit are in their
initial stages, and discovery has recently commenced. The Company intends to
vigorously defend itself in the case. While the Company believes it possesses
certain meritorious defenses to the claims, the matter remains in its initial
stages, and, accordingly, the Company cannot at this time predict its likelihood
of success on the merits.

     On or about December 15, 2000, the Company filed and served its Amended
Complaint against LDDS WorldCom, Inc., MCI WorldCom Network Services, Inc., MCI
WorldCom Communications, Inc., and MCI WorldCom Management Company, Inc.
(collectively "Defendants"), claiming a violation of the Telecom Act and
breach of contract and seeking damages and equitable and injunctive relief
associated with Defendants' wrongful withholding of approximately $3.1 million
in dial-around compensation due to the Company, based upon an alleged, unrelated
indebtedness.  The Company believes that the majority of Defendants' claims

consists of charges for fraudulent calls, improperly assessed payphone
surcharges or other erroneous billings, and the Company contends that it is not
liable for the alleged indebtedness.  The Company filed a motion with the Court
for a preliminary injunction, and oral arguments were heard on February 12,
2001.  Additionally, Defendants filed a motion with the Court to dismiss the
Amended Complaint, and oral arguments were heard on April 16, 2001.  Both the
injunction and the motion to dismiss are currently pending before the Court. On
April 25, 2001, the Court ordered parties to mediate the case on or around June
18, 2001, expressly deferring its ruling on the Company's preliminary injunction
motion and Defendants' motion to dismiss until after such time as the parties
have participated in the mediation conference.  Although the Company believes it
possesses meritorious claims in the case, given the uncertainty of litigation,
the parties agreed at the mediation conference to commence negotiating the terms
of a settlement agreement.

     In February 2001, Picus Communications, LLC, a debtor in Chapter 11
bankruptcy in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of
Virginia, brought suit against the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary,
Telaleasing Enterprises, Inc., in the United States District Court for the
Eastern District of Virginia, claiming unpaid invoices of over $600,000 for
local telephone services in Virginia, Maryland, and the District of Columbia.
The Company sought relief from the Bankruptcy Court to assert claims against
Picus and answered Picus's complaint in the District Court, denying its material
allegations. On or about April 2, 2001, Picus moved the District Court to
dismiss its case and indicated that it may file its claim as an adversary
proceeding with the Bankruptcy Court. In such an event, the Company intends to
reassert its counterclaim in Bankruptcy Court. The Company believes it has
meritorious defenses and counterclaims against Picus and intends to vigorously
defend itself and pursue recovery from Picus on its counterclaims. The Company
cannot at this time predict its likelihood of success on the merits.

     The Company is involved in other litigation arising in the usual course of
business which it believes will not materially affect its financial position,
results of operations, or liquidity.

7. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     On July 20, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (SFAS No. 141), "Business
Combinations", and No. 142 (SFAS No. 142), "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets."  SFAS No. 141 addresses financial accounting and reporting for goodwill
and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination at acquisition.
SFAS No. 141 requires the purchase method of accounting to be used for all
business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001; establishes specific
criteria for the recognition of intangible assets separately from goodwill; and
requires unallocated negative goodwill to be written off immediately as an
extraordinary gain (instead of being deferred and amortized).  SFAS No.142
addresses financial accounting and reporting for intangible assets acquired
individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired in a
business combination) at acquisition.  SFAS No. 142 also addresses financial
accounting and reporting for goodwill and other intangible assets subsequent to
their acquisition.  SFAS No. 142 provides that goodwill and intangible assets
which have indefinite useful lives will not be amortized but rather will be
tested at least annually for impairment.  It also provides that intangible
assets that have finite useful lives will continue to be amortized over their
useful lives, but those lives will no longer be limited to forty years.  SFAS
No. 141 is effective for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001
and for all business combinations accounted for by the purchase method for which
the date of acquisition is after June 30, 2001.  The provisions of SFAS No. 142
are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001.  The Company
will adopt SFAS No. 142 beginning January 1, 2002.  The Company is considering
the provisions of SFAS No. 141 and No. 142 and at present has not determined the
impact of adopting SFAS No 141 and SFAS No. 142.

8. ACQUISITIONS

     On June 13, 2001, the Company announced that it has signed a letter of
intent to merge with PhoneTel Technologies, Inc., which is headquartered in
Cleveland, Ohio and which operates approximately 35,000 phones in 45 states and
the District of Columbia.  The letter of intent contemplates the execution of a
definitive merger agreement and a substantial debt restructuring of each
company.  In connection with the expected merger, PhoneTel will become a wholly
owned subsidiary of Davel.  In addition, the two companies have entered into a
servicing agreement designed to commence cost savings initiatives in advance of
the closing of the merger.

     The transaction is subject to the execution of a definitive merger
agreement, approval by the boards of directors of PhoneTel and Davel, approval
by the shareholders and existing senior secured lenders of both companies, and
the receipt of material third party and governmental approvals and consents.

     As part of the completion of the merger of the two companies (the "PhoneTel
Merger"), the senior secured creditors of both Davel and PhoneTel will exchange
a substantial amount of the combined debt for equity securities of the
respective companies and will restructure the remaining debt.  In connection
with PhoneTel's debt exchange, its senior secured lenders will own 87% of
PhoneTel's outstanding common stock immediately prior to the PhoneTel Merger,
with the remaining senior secured debt not to exceed $36.5 million (as compared
to approximately $55 million currently outstanding).  Existing holders of
PhoneTel common stock will own 9% of PhoneTel's outstanding shares, and 4% will
be reserved for PhoneTel employee stock options or other stock-based incentive
awards.  In connection with Davel's debt exchange, its senior secured lenders
will own 93% of Davel's outstanding common stock immediately prior to the
PhoneTel Merger, with the remaining senior secured debt not to exceed $63.5
million (as compared to approximately $238 million currently outstanding).
Existing stockholders of Davel common stock will own 3% of Davel's outstanding
shares and 4% of the common stock will be reserved for the issuance of stock
options or other stock-based incentive awards to Davel employees.

     Immediately following the PhoneTel merger, current PhoneTel stockholders
will own approximately 3.28% of the shares of Davel common stock and current
Davel stockholders will own approximately 1.91%.  Of the remaining shares, 4%
will be reserved for issuance of employee stock options or other stock-based
incentive awards and the companies' combined lenders will own approximately
90.81%.

     Effective with the PhoneTel Merger, the then outstanding debt of both
entities, currently in the approximate amount of $293 million, will be reduced
to $100 million in total debt of the merged entity through the debt and equity
restructuring outlined above.  Of this $100 million of restructured debt, $50
million will be amortizing term debt with interest and principal payable from
operating cash flows.  Payment of the interest and principal on the remaining
$50 million of debt will be deferred under terms to be negotiated in connection
with the definitive merger agreement.

     On July 31, 2001, the letter of intent between the Company and PhoneTel
expired without the execution of a definitive merger agreement.  The Company and
PhoneTel are currently in negotiations to extend the terms of the letter of
intent.

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

     The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing
elsewhere herein.

     With the exception of historical information (information relating to the
Company's financial condition and results of operations at historical dates or
for historical periods), the matters discussed in this Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Result of Operations ("MD&A") are
forward-looking statements that necessarily are based on certain assumptions and
are subject to certain risks and uncertainties. The forward-looking statements
are based on management's expectations as of the date hereof. Actual future
performance and results could differ materially from that contained in or
suggested by these forward-looking statements as a result of the factors set
forth in this MD&A and related filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  The Company assumes no obligation to update any such forward-
looking statements.

General

     During 2001, the Company has derived its revenues from two principal
sources: coin calls and non-coin calls. Coin calls represent calls paid for by
callers with coins deposited in the payphone. Coin call revenues are recorded at
the time coins are deposited into the payphone and the service is provided.

     Non-coin calls include credit card, calling card, collect, and third party
billed calls, handled by operator service providers selected by the Company.
Non-coin call revenues are recognized in the period in which the customer places
the related call and are based upon the commission received by the Company from
the carriers of these calls.

     The Company also recognizes non-coin revenues from calls that are dialed
from its payphones to gain access to a long distance company other than the one
pre-programmed into the telephone or to make a traditional "toll free" call
(dial-around calls). Revenues from dial-around calls are recognized in the
period in which the customer places the related call and are based on estimates
of calls made using most recent actual historical data and the FCC mandated
dial-around compensation rate in effect. This is commonly referred to as "dial-
around" access.

     The principal costs related to the ongoing operation of the Company's
payphones include telephone charges, commissions, and service, maintenance and
network costs.  Telephone charges consist of payments made by the Company to
LECs and long distance carriers for line charges and use of their networks.
Commission expense represents payments to location owners. Service, maintenance
and network costs represent the cost of servicing and maintaining the payphones
on an ongoing basis.

Regulatory impact on revenue

Local Coin Rates

     In ensuring "fair compensation" for all calls, the FCC previously
determined that local coin rates from payphones should be generally deregulated
by October 7, 1997, but provided for possible modifications or exemptions from
deregulation upon a detailed showing by an individual state that there are
market failures within the state that would not allow market-based rates to
develop. On July 1, 1997, a federal court issued an order which upheld the FCC's
authority to deregulate local coin call rates. In accordance with the FCC's
ruling and the court order, certain LECs and IPPs, including the Company,
increased rates for local coin calls

                                       14
<PAGE>

from $0.25 to $0.35. In 2001, the Company has experienced lower coin call
volumes on its payphones resulting from the increased rates, growth in wireless
communication services and changes in call traffic and the geographic mix of the
Company's payphones.

Dial-around Compensation

     In September and November 1996, the FCC issued its rulings implementing
Section 276 (the "1996 Payphone Order").  In the 1996 Payphone Order, the FCC
determined that the best way to ensure fair compensation to independent and LEC
PSPs for each and every call was to deregulate, to the maximum extent possible,
the price of all calls originating from payphones.  For local coin calls, the
FCC mandated that deregulation of the local coin rate would not occur until
October 1997 in order to provide a period of orderly transition from the
previous system of state regulation.

     To achieve fair compensation for dial-around calls through deregulation and
competition, the FCC in the 1996 Payphone Order directed a two-phase transition
from a regulated market. In the first phase, November 1996 to October 1997, the
FCC prescribed flat-rate compensation payable to the PSPs by the IXCs in the
amount of $45.85 per month per payphone.  This rate was arrived at by
determining that the deregulated local coin rate was a valid market-based
surrogate for dial-around calls.  The FCC applied a market-based, deregulated
coin rate of $0.35 per call to a finding from the record that there was a
monthly average of 131 compensable dial-around calls per payphone.  This total
included both carrier access code calls dialed for the purpose of reaching a
long distance company other than the one designated by the PSP as well as 800
"toll free" calls.  The monthly, per phone flat-rate compensation of $45.85
was to be assessed only against IXCs with annual toll-call revenues in excess of
$100 million and allocated among such IXCs in proportion to their gross long-
distance revenues.  During the second phase of the transition to deregulation
and market-based compensation (initially from October 1997 to October 1998, but
subsequently extended in a later order by one year to October 1999), the FCC
directed the IXCs to pay the PSPs on a per-call basis for dial-around calls at
the assumed deregulated coin rate of $0.35 per call.  At the conclusion of the
second phase, the FCC set the market-based local coin rate, determined on a
payphone-by-payphone basis, as the default per-call compensation rate in the
absence of a negotiated agreement between the PSP and the IXC.  To facilitate
per-call compensation, the FCC required the PSPs to transmit payphone-specific
coding digits which would identify each call as originating from a payphone and
required the LECs to make such coding available to the PSPs as a tariffed item
included in the local access line service.

     In July 1997, a federal court (the "Court") responded to an appeal of the
1996 Payphone Order, finding that the FCC erred in (1) setting the default per-
call rate at $0.35 without considering the differences in underlying costs
between dial-around calls and local coin calls, (2) assessing the flat-rate
compensation against only the carriers with annual toll-call revenues in excess
of $100 million, and (3) allocating the assessment of the flat-rate compensation
based on gross revenues rather than on a factor more directly related to the
number of dial-around calls processed by the carrier.  The Court also assigned
error to other aspects of the 1996 Payphone Order concerning inmate payphones
and the accounting treatment of payphones transferred by an RBOC to a separate
affiliate.

     In response to the Court's remand, the FCC issued its modified ruling
implementing Section 276 (the "1997 Payphone Order") in October of 1997.  The
FCC determined that distinct and severable costs of $0.066 were attributable to
coin calls that did not apply to the costs incurred by the PSPs in providing
access for dial-around calls.  Accordingly, the FCC adjusted the per call rate
during the second phase of interim compensation to $0.284 (which is $0.35 less
$0.066).  While the FCC tentatively concluded that the $0.284 default rate
should be utilized in determining compensation during the first phase and
reiterated that PSPs were entitled to compensation for each and every call
during the first phase, it deferred a decision on the precise method of
allocating the initial interim period (November 1996 through October 1997) flat-
rate payment obligation among the IXCs and the number of calls to be used in
determining the total amount of the payment obligation.

                                       15
<PAGE>

     On March 9, 1998, the FCC issued a Memorandum Opinion and Order, FCC 98-
481, which extended and waived certain requirements concerning the provision by
the LECs of payphone-specific coding digits which identify a call as originating
from a payphone. Without the transmission of payphone-specific coding digits,
some of the IXCs have claimed they are unable to identify a call as a payphone
call eligible for dial-around compensation. With the stated purpose of ensuring
the continued payment of dial-around compensation, the FCC's Memorandum and
Order issued on April 3, 1998 left in place the requirement for payment of per-
call compensation for payphones on lines that do not transmit the requisite
payphone-specific coding digits but gave the IXCs a choice for computing the
amount of compensation for payphones on LEC lines not transmitting the payphone-
specific coding digits of either accurately computing per-call compensation from
their databases or paying per-phone, flat-rate compensation computed by
multiplying the $0.284 per call rate by the nationwide average number of 800
subscriber and access code calls placed from RBOC payphones for corresponding
payment periods. Accurate payments made at the flat rate are not subject to
subsequent adjustment for actual call counts from the applicable payphone.

     On May 15, 1998, the Court again remanded the per-call compensation rate to
the FCC for further explanation without vacating the $0.284 per call rate.  The
Court opined that the FCC had failed to explain adequately its derivation of the
$0.284 default rate.  The Court stated that any resulting overpayment would be
subject to refund and directed the FCC to conclude its proceedings within a six-
month period from the effective date of the Court's decision.

     In response to the Court's second remand, the FCC conducted further
proceedings and sought additional comment from interested parties to address the
relevant issues posed by the Court.  On February 4, 1999, the FCC released the
Third Report and Order and Order on Reconsideration of the Second Report and
Order (the "1999 Payphone Order"), in which the FCC abandoned its efforts to
derive a "market-based" default dial-around compensation rate and instead
adopted a "cost-based" rate of $0.24 per dial-around call. Both PSPs and IXCs
petitioned the Court for review of the 1999 Payphone Order's determination of
the dial-around compensation rate.  On June 16, 2000, the Court affirmed the
1999 Payphone Order setting a 24-cent dial-around compensation rate.  On all the
issues, including those raised by the IXCs and the payphone providers, the Court
applied the "arbitrary and capricious" standard of review, and found that the
FCC's rulings were lawful and sustainable under that standard.  As a result of
the Court's June 16, 2000 decision, the 24-cent dial-around compensation rate is
likely to remain in place until at least the end of 2001, when the FCC has
promised to complete a third-year review of the rate.  With respect to the
Petition for Reconsideration of the 1999 Payphone Order filed with the FCC by
the payphone providers, this Petition is still pending and has yet to be ruled
on by the FCC.  In view of the Court's affirmation of the 1999 Payphone Order,
it is unlikely that the FCC will adopt material changes to the key components of
the Order pursuant to the pending Reconsideration Petition, although no
assurances can be given.

     On April 5, 2001, the FCC released an order that is expected to have a
significant impact on the obligations of telecommunications carriers to pay
dial-around compensation to PSPs.  The effect of the decision is to clarify that
the first carrier to handle a dial-around call originating from a pay telephone
has the obligation to track and pay compensation on the call, regardless of
whether other carriers may subsequently transport or complete the call.  Under
the FCC ruling, implementation of this system modification is scheduled to occur
on November 27, 2001.  The Company believes that this modification to the dial-
around compensation system will result in a significant increase to the number
of calls for which the Company is able to collect such compensation.  Because,
however, the FCC ruling is potentially subject to administrative reconsideration
or judicial appeal and the system modification is as yet untested, no assurances
can be given as to the precise timing or magnitude of revenue impact that may
flow from the decision.

     The new 24-cent rate became effective April 21, 1999, and will serve as the
default rate through January 31, 2002.  The new rate will also be applied
retroactively to the period beginning on October 7, 1997, less a

                                       16

$0.002 amount to account for FLEX ANI payphone tracking costs, for a net
compensation of $0.238. The 1999 Payphone Order deferred a final ruling on the
interim period (November 7, 1996 to October 6, 1997) treatment to a later, as
yet unreleased, order; however, it appears that the $0.238 rate will be applied
to the period November 7, 1996 to October 6, 1997. Upon establishment of the
interim period rate, the FCC has further ruled that a true-up may be made for
all payments or credits (with applicable interest) due and owing between the
IXCs and the PSPs, including Davel, for the payment period commencing on
November 7, 1996 through the effective date of the new $0.24 per call rate. It
is possible that the final implementation of the 1999 Payphone Order, including
resolution of this retroactive adjustment and the outcome of any related
administrative or judicial review, could have a material adverse effect on the
Company.

     The payment levels for dial-around calls prescribed in the 1996 and 1997
Payphone Orders significantly increase per-call dial-around compensation
revenues to the Company over the levels received prior to implementation of the
1996 Telecom Act (although the 1999 Payphone Order has now moderated those
increases). However, market forces and factors outside the Company's control
could significantly affect these per-call revenue increases. These factors
include the following: (i) the resolution by the FCC of the "true up" of the
initial interim period flat-rate and "per call" assessment periods, (ii) the
possibility of other administrative proceedings or litigation seeking to modify
or overturn the 1999 Payphone Order or portions thereof, (iii) the IXC's
reaction to the FCC's recognition that existing regulations do not prohibit an
IXC from blocking 800 subscriber numbers from payphones in order to avoid paying
per-call compensation on such calls, and (iv) ongoing technical or other
difficulties in the responsible carriers' ability and willingness to properly
track or pay for dial-around calls actually delivered to them.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2001 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2000

     For the three months ended June 30, 2001, total revenues decreased
approximately $12 million, or 33.7%, to approximately $23.5 million from
approximately $35.5 million in the same period of 2000.  This decrease was
primarily attributable to the removal of unprofitable phones and lower call
volumes due to increased competition from the wireless communications industry,
resulting in lower average revenue per phone.

     Coin call revenues decreased approximately $6.3 million, or 28.5%, to
approximately $15.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2001 from
approximately $22.1 million in the second quarter of 2000.  The decrease in coin
call revenues was primarily attributable to a reduction in the number of average
payphones per month from approximately 73,600 phones for the quarter ended June
30, 2000 to approximately 64,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2001.  This is
the result of the Company's ongoing strategy to remove unprofitable payphones.
In addition, revenues were impacted by lower call volumes on the Company's
payphones resulting from increased competition from wireless communication
services and changes in call traffic.

     Non-coin call revenues, which is comprised primarily of dial-around revenue
and long distance revenue, decreased approximately $5.7 million, or 42.4%, to
approximately $7.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2001 from
approximately $13.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000.  The
decrease was primarily attributable to the removal of unprofitable payphone
locations and lower call volumes on the Company's payphones resulting from the
growth in wireless communication services and changes in call traffic.  Dial-
around revenue decreased approximately $2.4 million, to approximately $5.5
million in the three months ended June 30, 2001 from approximately $7.9 million
in the second quarter of 2000.  The dial-around decrease is primarily
attributable to the net removal of approximately 9,500 unprofitable payphones,
or 13.0% of the total payphone base over the 12-month period, and lower calls
per payphone due to increased competition from wireless services.  Long-distance
revenues decreased approximately $2.6 million, to approximately $2.2 million in
the second quarter of 2001 from approximately $4.8 million in the three months
ended June 30, 2000.  The decrease is attributable to fewer payphones in
service, fewer long distance calls made per payphone, and reduced call time per
call.

                                       17
<PAGE>

     Telephone charges decreased approximately $3.0 million, or 31.3%, to
approximately $6.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 from
approximately $9.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Such
charges, however, increased as a percentage of revenues to 28.8% in the second
quarter of 2001 from 27.8% in the second quarter of 2000, due to the decline in
revenues. Average monthly telephone bill charges were $35.22 per phone in the
second quarter of 2001 compared with $44.60 per phone in the second quarter of
2000. Telephone charges were favorably affected by the receipt in the second
quarter of 2001 of $1.3 million of refunds relating to prior year telephone
charges. The Company is currently negotiating contracts and pursuing additional
regulatory relief that it believes will further reduce local access charges on a
per-phone basis, but is unable to estimate the impact of further telephone
charge reductions at this time.

     Commissions decreased approximately $1.5 million, or 18.2%, to
approximately $6.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2001 from
approximately $8.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Commissions
as a percentage of revenues have begun to rise due to revenue mix changes as
well as the removal of payphones that had lower commission rates. The shift in
revenue mix to the higher commissioned sources has given rise to higher average
commissions per payphone. The Company is actively reviewing its strategies
related to contract renewals in order to maintain its competitive position while
retaining its customer base.

     Service, maintenance and network costs decreased approximately $3.7
million, or 40.8%, to approximately $5.4 million in the three months ended June
30, 2001 from approximately $9.1 million in the three months ended June 30,
2000. The decrease was primarily attributable to reductions in headcount and
wage related costs of approximately $1.5 million generated from rationalization
of field office expenses, increased geographic and route density of the phones
and the Company's ability to improve efficiency on servicing the Company's
payphones. Network access expenses were also approximately $1.5 million lower
for the quarter. Reductions in service and collection expenses of approximately
$0.4 million, vehicle servicing expenses of approximately $0.2 million and field
office expenses of approximately $0.1 million occurred as a result of lower
payphone count and field office reorganizations.

     Depreciation expense in the three months ended June 30, 2001 declined to
approximately $4.3 million from approximately $5.3 million recorded in the three
months ended June 30, 2000.  Amortization expense in the three months ended June
30, 2001 declined to approximately $0.3 million from approximately $3.6 million
recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2000.  The decrease in depreciation
and amortization expense is primarily attributable to impairment charges that
were taken in the fourth quarter of 2000 for installed phones, goodwill and site
contract intangibles.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased approximately $1.8
million, or 36.5%, to approximately $3.2 million in the three months ended June
30, 2001 from approximately $5.0 million in the three months ended June 30,
2000.  The decrease in expense was primarily attributable to a reduction in
salaries and salary-related expenses of approximately $0.9 million, which
occurred as a result of continued rationalization of overhead expenses in light
of a declining revenue base.  In addition, professional fees declined
approximately $0.4 million.  Declines totaling approximately $0.5 million in a
variety of other areas such as travel and general office expenses were also
realized.

     Interest expense in the three months ended June 30, 2001 increased
approximately $0.8 million, or 12.4%, compared to the prior-year period, to
approximately $7.2 million in the second quarter of 2001 from approximately $6.4
million in the second quarter of 2000.  The increase in recorded interest is the
result of higher average outstanding debt on which interest was computed in the
second quarter of 2001 compared with the second quarter of 2000.

     Net loss decreased approximately $1.5 million, or 13.4%, to approximately
$10.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2001 from approximately $11.7
million in the second quarter of 2000.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2001 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2000

     For the six months ended June 30, 2001, total revenues decreased
approximately $25.2 million, or 35.0%, to approximately $46.7 million from
approximately $71.9 million in the same period of 2000. This decrease was
primarily attributable to the removal of unprofitable payphones and lower call
volumes due to increased competition from the wireless communications industry,
resulting in lower average revenue per payphone.

     Coin call revenues decreased approximately $12.4 million, or 28.4%, to
approximately $31.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2001 from
approximately $43.8 million in the first half of 2000.  The decrease in coin
call revenues was primarily attributable to a reduction in the number of average
payphones per month from approximately 75,000 phones for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 to approximately 65,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001.
This is the result of the Company's ongoing strategy to remove unprofitable
payphones, and from lower call volumes on the Company's payphones resulting from
increased competition from wireless communication services and changes in call
traffic.

     Non-coin call revenues, which is comprised primarily of dial-around revenue
and long distance revenue, decreased approximately $12.7 million, or 45.3%, to
approximately $15.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2001 from
approximately $28 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000.  The decrease
was primarily attributable to the removal of unprofitable payphone locations and
lower call volumes on the Company's payphones resulting from the growth in
wireless communication services and changes in call traffic.  Dial-around
revenue decreased approximately $6.3 million, to approximately $10.1 million in
the six months ended June 30, 2001 from approximately $16.4 million in the first
half of 2000, after including the $0.4 million adjustment noted above.  The
dial-around decrease is primarily attributable to the net removal of
approximately 10,000 unprofitable payphones, or 13.4% of the total payphone base
over the 12-month period, and lower calls per payphone due to increased
competition from wireless services.  Long-distance revenues decreased
approximately $5.1 million, to approximately $5.3 million in the first half of
2001 from approximately $10.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000.
The decrease is attributable to fewer payphones in service, fewer long distance
calls made per payphone, and reduced call time per call.

     Telephone charges decreased approximately $4.1 million, or 20.4%, to
approximately $15.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from
approximately $19.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000.  Such
charges, however, increased as a percentage of revenues to 33.6% in the first
half of 2001 from 27.5% in the first half of 2000, due to the decline in
revenues.  Average monthly telephone bill charges were $40.26 per phone in the
first half of 2001 compared with $43.81 per phone in the first half of 2000.
Telephone charges for the six months ended June 30, 2001 would have been
impacted by a $2.1 million refund received from BellSouth for prior period
charges pursuant to a recently adopted Tennessee `New Service Test'.  However,
the Company did not recognize the refund in its first or second quarter
Statement of Operations due to the pending court ruling on BellSouth's appeal.
Telephone charges were favorably affected in the first six months of 2001 by the
receipt of $1.3 million of refunds from other local LECs which complied with the
NST orders relating to prior year telephone charges.  The Company is currently
negotiating contracts and pursuing additional regulatory relief that it believes
will further reduce local access charges on a per-phone basis, but is unable to
estimate the impact of further telephone charge reductions at this time.

     Commissions decreased approximately $4.8 million, or 29.1%, to
approximately $11.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2001 from
approximately $16.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000. Commissions
for the six months ended June 30, 2001 included favorable adjustments of $0.6
million resulting from a change in a contract. Commissions as a percentage of
revenues have begun to rise due to revenue mix changes as well as the removal of
payphones that had lower commission rates. The shift in revenue mix to the

                                       19
<PAGE>

higher commissioned sources has given rise to higher average commissions per
phone. The Company is actively reviewing its strategies related to contract
renewals in order to maintain its competitive position while retaining its
customer base.

     Service, maintenance and network costs decreased approximately $5.2
million, or 30.8%, to approximately $11.6 million in the six months ended June
30, 2001 from approximately $16.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000.
The decrease was primarily attributable to reductions in headcount and wage
related costs of approximately $3.0 million generated from rationalization of
field office expenses, increased geographic and route density of the phones and
the Company's ability to improve efficiency on servicing the Company's
payphones. Reductions in service and collection expenses of approximately $0.8
million, vehicle servicing expenses of approximately $0.4 million and field
office expenses of approximately $0.1 million occurred as a result of lower
phone count and field office reorganizations. Network access savings of $1.7
million were partially offset by increased property taxes of $0.4 million,

     Depreciation expense in the six months ended June 30, 2001 declined to
approximately $8.6 million from approximately $9.8 million recorded in the six
months ended June 30, 2000.  Amortization expense in the six months ended June
30, 2001 declined to approximately $0.6 million from approximately $7.7 million
recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2000.  The decrease in depreciation
and amortization expense is primarily attributable to impairment charges that
were taken in the fourth quarter of 2000 for installed phones, goodwill, and
site contract intangibles.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased approximately $3.0
million, or 32.3%, to approximately $6.3 million in the six months ended June
30, 2001 from approximately $9.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000.
The decrease in expense was primarily attributable to a reduction in salaries
and salary-related expenses of approximately $1.7 million, which occurred as a
result of continued rationalization of overhead expenses in light of a declining
revenue base.  In addition, both professional fees and travel expenses are $0.3
million less than in the same period last year and a variety of other expense
items provided a reduction of $0.7 million as compared to the same period last
year.

     Interest expense in the six months ended June 30, 2001 increased
approximately $2.0 million, or 15.1%, compared to the prior-year period, to
approximately $15.0 million in the first half of 2001 from approximately $13.0
million in the first half of 2000. The increase in recorded interest is the
result of higher average outstanding debt on which interest was computed in the
first half of 2001 compared with the first half of 2000.

     Net loss increased approximately $1.7 million, or 8.1%, to approximately
$22.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2001 from approximately $21.1
million in the first half of 2000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows

     Historically, the Company's primary sources of liquidity have been cash
from operations, borrowings under various credit facilities and, periodically,
proceeds from the issuance of common stock and proceeds from the issuance of
preferred stock. There was no stock issued in the most recent two years, and
borrowings under the Company's credit facilities ceased after the third quarter
of 2000.

     The Company's payphone revenues by operating region are affected by
seasonal variations, geographic distribution of payphones, removal of
unprofitable phones and type of location. Because many of the payphones are
located outdoors, weather patterns have differing effects on the Company's
results depending on the region of the country where the payphones are located.
Payphones located in the southern United States

                                       20
<PAGE>

produce substantially higher call volume in the first and second quarters than
at other times during the years, while the Company's payphones throughout the
midwestern and eastern United States produce their highest call volumes during
the second and third quarters.

     In the six months ended June 30, 2001, operating activities provided
approximately $1.3 million of net cash.  Operating activities used approximately
$6.5 million of net cash in the six months ended June 30, 2000. The $22.8
million operating loss during this period was impacted by a decrease of $0.5
million in trade receivables, the amortization of $1.8 million of deferred
financing charges, increases of $10.1 million in payables and accruals, $2.5
million of deferred revenue, and $9.3 million in depreciation and amortization
during the six months ended June 30, 2001.  The increase in payables and accrued
liabilities reflects, in part, an extension of payment terms with certain
vendors and an effort to shift a greater number of customers from monthly to
quarterly commission payments, as well as a refund received of approximately
$2.6 million from BellSouth relating to Tennessee's recently adopted "New
Services Test," which is under appeal by BellSouth.

     Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2001 were $0.5
million compared to $3.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000. The
current strategy of removing under-performing phones, combined with the
existence of an extensive inventory of phone components, allows for minimal
capital equipment expenditures.

     The Company's principal source of liquidity in the six months ended June
30, 2001 came from cash flow generated from operating activities. The Company's
primary uses of liquidity are to provide working capital and to meet debt
service requirements. At June 30, 2001, the Company no longer had borrowing
availability through a revolving line of credit under the Senior Credit
Facility. See "Credit Agreement" section below for a discussion of the
amendments that have restructured the Senior Credit Facility and a description
of current indebtedness. All outstanding debt in connection with the senior
credit facility has been reclassified to current liabilities. The Company made
principal payments of $5.2 million and borrowed $15.7 under the Company's Senior
Credit Facility in the six months ended June 30, 2000. A principal payment of
$1.1 million was paid in April 2001 as required under the Sixth Amendment to the
Senior Credit Facility. A required payment of $2.2 million was not made in July
2001, as previously required under such Sixth Amendment.

Credit Agreement

     In connection with the Peoples Telephone Merger, the Company entered into a
senior credit facility ("Senior Credit Facility") with Bank of America,
formerly known as NationsBank, N.A. (the "Administrative Agent"), and the
other lenders named therein.  The Senior Credit Facility provides for borrowings
by Davel from time to time of up to $245.0 million, including a $45 million
revolving facility, for working capital and other corporate purposes.

     Indebtedness of the Company under the Senior Credit Facility is secured by
substantially all of its and its subsidiaries' assets, including but not limited
to their equipment, inventory, receivables and related contracts, investment
property, computer hardware and software, bank accounts, and all other goods and
rights of every kind and description and is guaranteed by Davel and all its
subsidiaries.

     The Company's borrowings under the original Senior Credit Facility bore
interest at a floating rate and may be maintained as Base Rate Loans (as defined
in the Senior Credit Facility) or, at the Company's option, as Eurodollar Loans
(as defined in the Senior Credit Facility). Base Rate Loans bear interest at the
Base Rate (defined as the higher of (i) the applicable prime lending rate of
Bank of America or (ii) the Federal Reserve reported certificate of deposit rate
plus 1%). Eurodollar Loans bear interest at the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in
the Senior Credit Facility).

                                       21
<PAGE>

     The Company is required to pay the lenders under the Senior Credit Facility
a commitment fee, payable in arrears on a quarterly basis, on the average unused
portion of the Senior Credit Facility during the term of the facility. The
Company is also required to pay an annual agency fee to the Agent. In addition,
the Company was also required to pay an arrangement fee for the account of each
bank in accordance with the banks' respective pro rata share of the Senior
Credit Facility. The Administrative Agent and the other lenders will receive
such other fees as have been separately agreed upon with the Administrative
Agent.

     The Senior Credit Facility requires the Company to meet certain financial
tests and contains certain covenants that, among other things, limit the
incurrence of additional indebtedness, prepayments of other indebtedness, liens
and encumbrances and other matters customarily restricted in such agreements.

First Amendment

     In the first quarter of 1999, the Company gave notice to the Administrative
Agent that lower than expected performance in the first quarter of 1999 would
result in the Company's inability to meet certain financial covenants contained
in the Senior Credit Facility.  On April 8, 1999, the Company and the Lenders
agreed to the First Amendment to Credit Agreement and Consent and Waiver (the
"First Amendment") which waived compliance, for the fiscal quarter ended March
31, 1999, with the financial covenants set forth in the Senior Credit Facility.
In addition, the First Amendment waived any event of default related to two
acquisitions made by the Company in the first quarter of 1999, and waived the
requirement that the Company deliver annual financial statements to the Lenders
within 90 days of December 31, 1998, provided that such financial statements be
delivered no later than April 15, 1999.  The First Amendment contained
amendments that provided for the following:

     .  Amendment of the applicable percentages for Eurodollar Loans for the
        period between April 1, 1999 and June 30, 2000 at each pricing level to
        0.25% higher than those in the previous pricing grid

     .  Payment of debt from receipt of dial-around compensation accounts
        receivable related to the period November 1996 through October 1997

     .  Further limitations on permitted acquisitions as defined in the Credit
        Agreement through June 30, 2000

     .  During the period April 1, 1999 to June 30, 2000, required lenders'
        consent for the making of loans or the issuance of letters of credit if
        the sum of revolving loans outstanding plus letter of credit obligations
        outstanding exceeds $50.0 million

     .  The introduction of a new covenant to provide certain operating data to
        the Lenders on a monthly basis

     .  Increases in the maximum allowable ratio of funded debt to EBITDA
        through the quarter ended June 30, 2000

     .  Decreases in the minimum allowable interest coverage ratio through the
        quarter ended June 30, 2000

     .  Decreases in the minimum allowable fixed charge coverage ratio through
        the quarter ended June 30, 2000.

     The First Amendment also places limits on capital expenditures and required
the payment of an amendment fee equal to the product of the Lender's commitment
multiplied by 0.35%.

                                       22
<PAGE>

Second Amendment

     In the first quarter of 2000, the Company gave notice to the Administrative
Agent that lower than expected performance in the first quarter of 2000 would
result in the Company's inability to meet certain financial covenants contained
in the Senior Credit Facility. Effective March 9, 2000, the Company and the
Lenders agreed to the Second Amendment to Credit Agreement and Consent and
Waiver (the "Second Amendment"), which waived certain covenants through
January 15, 2001.  In exchange for the covenant relief, the Company agreed to a
lowering of the available credit facility to $245 million (through a permanent
reduction of the revolving line of credit to $45 million), placement of a block
on the final $10 million of borrowing under the revolving credit facility (which
requires that all of the Lenders be notified in order to access the final $10.0
million of availability on that facility), a fee of 35 basis points of the
Lenders commitment and a moratorium on acquisitions.  The Second Amendment
contained amendments that provided for the following:

     .  Amendment of the applicable percentages for Eurodollar Loans to:

        (a)    3.50% for all Revolving Loans which are Eurodollar Loans, all
               Tranche A Term Loans which are Eurodollar Loans, and all Letter
               of Credit Fees;
        (b)    4.25% for all Tranche B Term Loans which are Eurodollar Loans;
        (c)    2.00% for all Revolving Loans which are Base Rate Loans and all
               Tranche A Term Loans which are Base Rate Loans;
        (d)    2.75% for all Tranche B Term Loans which are Base Rate Loans; and
        (e)    0.75% for all Commitment Fees;

     .  After March 9, 2000, introduction of a new covenant requiring lenders'
        consent for the making of loans or the issuance of letters of credit if
        the sum of revolving loans outstanding plus letter of credit obligations
        outstanding exceeds $35.0 million;

     .  The addition of a new covenant to provide financial statements to the
        Lenders on a monthly basis;

     .  Increases in the maximum allowable ratio of funded debt to EBITDA
        through the maturity date of the loan;

     .  Decreases in the minimum allowable interest coverage ratio through the
        maturity date of the loan;

     .  Decreases in the minimum allowable fixed charge coverage ratio through
        the maturity date of the loan;

     .  Decreases in permitted capital expenditures to $10 million annually; and

     .  Reduction of the maximum interest period for Eurodollar loans to 30
        days.

Third Amendment

     In the second quarter of 2000, the Company gave notice to the
Administrative Agent that lower than expected performance during the first six
months of 2000 would result in the Company's inability to meet certain financial
covenants contained in the Senior Credit Facility as well as the June 30, 2000
debt amortization and interest payments. On June 22, 2000, the Company and the
Lenders who are party to the agreement agreed to the Third Amendment to Credit
Agreement (the "Third Amendment"), which eliminated the financial covenant
compliance test for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2000, as was set forth in
the Senior Credit Facility. The Third Amendment also provided for the following:

                                       23

     .  Term Loan A amortization payments totaling $5.0 million scheduled for
        June 30, 2000 would be due on September 30, 2000 together with the $5.0
        million amortization payment scheduled for that date. The total Term A
        amortization payments due on September 30, 2000 are $10.0 million;

     .  Term Loan B amortization payments totaling approximately $0.2 million
        scheduled for June 30, 2000 would be due on September 30, 2000 together
        with the approximately $0.2 million amortization payment scheduled for
        that date. The total Term B amortization payments due on September 30,
        2000 are approximately $0.5 million;

     .  Interest payments due on June 30, 2000 became due and were paid on July
        10, 2000; and

     .  All interest otherwise due and payable on each interest payment date
        occurring after June 30, 2000 and before September 30, 2000 continued to
        accrue on the applicable loans from and after such interest payment date
        and were to have been due and payable in arrears on September 30, 2000.

Fourth Amendment

     In the third quarter of 2000, the Company gave notice to the Administrative
Agent that lower than expected performance during the first nine months of 2000
would result in the Company's inability to meet certain financial covenants
contained in the Senior Credit Facility as well as the September 30, 2000 debt
amortization and interest payments.  On September 28, 2000, the Company and the
Lenders who are party to the agreement agreed to the Fourth Amendment to Credit
Agreement, which eliminated the financial covenants in their entirety with
respect to all periods ending on and after September 30, 2000 and also provided
for the following:

     .  Term Loan A, Term Loan B and Revolving Loan amortization payments
        totaling $15.7 million were to have been due on January 12, 2001. In
        addition, amortization payments of approximately $7.7 million are due on
        each of March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, 2001, and the
        balance of the then outstanding principal amount of all loan obligations
        is due on January 11, 2002;

     .  Interest payments otherwise due and payable on any interest payment date
        prior to January 12, 2001 will continue to accrue were to have been
        payable in arrears on January 12, 2001;

     .  Applicable percentages for adjusted LIBOR interest rates after September
        29, 2000 were generally lowered from those set forth in the Third
        Amendment to 2.75% for all Loans, except that rates will continue to
        equal 3.50% for all Letter of Credit Fees and 0.75% for all Commitment
        Fees;

     .  Positive net cash on hand in excess of $2.0 million at the end of each
        month will be paid to the Lenders as a prepayment of the Loans;

     .  The Revolving Loan commitment was terminated;

     .  Capital expenditures for the period October 1, 2000 to January 12, 2001
        were limited to $400,000; and

     .  The provision regarding the application of prepayments was modified, and
        a new provision was added requiring the Company to submit to the Lenders
        bi-weekly cash flow forecasts and a revised business plan for the 2001
        fiscal year.

                                       24

Fifth Amendment

     On November 29, 2000, the Borrower requested that the Lenders waive its
noncompliance with the requirements of the Credit Agreement resulting from the
Borrower's non-delivery of a revised business plan to the Lenders on or before
November 15, 2000.  In exchange, the Borrower agreed to amend certain provisions
of the Credit Agreement that had permitted the Borrower to dispose of certain
property outside the ordinary course of business and to make certain investments
outside the ordinary course of business so as to require, in each case, the
Lenders' prior written approval for any such disposition or investment.

Sixth Amendment

     In the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company gave notice to the new
Administrative Agent that the Company would not be able to make the January 12,
2001 debt amortization and interest payments.  On March 23, 2001, the Company
and the Lenders entered into the Sixth Amendment to Credit Agreement and Waiver,
effective as of January 12, 2001 (the "Sixth Amendment"), which provided for
the following:

     .  Principal amortization payments would be made in the amounts of $1.1
        million on April 15, 2001 (which was timely paid), $2.2 million on July
        15, 2001 and $3.3 million on October 15, 2001;

     .  The remaining outstanding principal amount of all loans, together with
        all accrued and unpaid interest, will be due on January 11, 2002;

     .  The Company will provide monthly budget reconciliation reports to the
        Lenders;

     .  The Company will comply with an agreed-upon budget for expenses in 2001;

     .  The Company will be subject to a limit on capital expenditures and
        certain location signing bonuses in 2001 and a minimum EBITDA covenant
        for 2001; and

     .  The Company agreed to the substitution of a new administrative agent for
        the Lenders, to pay such new agent a monthly fee of $30,000 and to pay
        certain earned fees of the professional advisors to the Lenders.

     In the second quarter of 2001, the Company gave notice to the
Administrative Agent that the Company would not be able to make the July 15,
2001 debt amortization payment of $2.2 million. In the third quarter of 2001,
the Company gave notice to the Administrative Agent that (i) the Company was out
of compliance with the minimum EBITDA covenant for May and June 2001 and,
because such covenant is cumulative, expected that it would fail to comply with
such covenant through December 2001 and (ii) expected to be unable to make the
$3.3 million amortization payment on October 15, 2001, as required by the Sixth
Amendment. The Company is in discussions with its lenders regarding a waiver of
the requirements to make the July 15 and October 15, 2001 amortization payments,
effective as of July 15, 2001, and an amendment to the minimum EBITDA covenant,
effective as of May 2001. The Company believes that it is likely that the
Company and its lenders will execute a written agreement that will prevent the
occurrence of any default with respect to such matters.

     The Senior Credit Facility contains customary events of default, including
without limitation, payment defaults, defaults for breaches of representations
and warranties, covenant defaults, cross-defaults to certain other indebtedness,
defaults for certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency, judgment defaults,
failure of any guaranty or security document supporting the Senior Credit
Facility to be in full force and effect, and defaults for a change of control of
the Company.

                                       25
<PAGE>

     The Company incurred losses of approximately $111.5 million and $22.8
million for the year ended December 31, 2000 and the six months ended June 30,
2001, respectively. These losses were primarily attributable to increased
competition from providers of wireless communication services and the impact on
the Company's revenue of certain regulatory changes. As of June 30, 2001, the
Company had a working capital deficit of $270.2 million and its liabilities
exceed its assets by $209.2 million. In addition, the Company was unable to meet
its debt principal payments of $15.7 million and interest payments of $12.5
million, which would have been due and payable on January 12, 2001 but for the
Company's execution of the Sixth Amendment, which called for interim principal
payments of $1.1 million due on April 15, 2001 (which was made), $2.2 million
due on July 15, 2001 (which has not yet been made), $3.3 million due on October
15, 2001 and the remainder due on January 11, 2002. In the absence of improved
operating results or cash flows, modifications to the Senior Credit Facility, or
the completion of possible strategic combinations (including the PhoneTel
Merger, as discussed in "Recent Developments"), the Company will face liquidity
problems and might be required to dispose of material assets or operations to
fund its operations and to meet its debt service and other obligations. There
can be no assurances as to the ability of the Company to execute the PhoneTel
merger, or any asset sales, or the timing thereof or the proceeds that the
Company could realize from such sales. As a result of these matters, substantial
doubt exists about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

     The Company's plans to increase liquidity include efforts to substantially
reduce costs, including through the PhoneTel Merger or alternative strategic
transactions. Management believes this will result in expansion of its market
presence and further leveraging of its infrastructure. In order to pursue this
strategy, the Company will need to obtain additional modifications to the Senior
Credit Facility, including forgiveness of a portion of its debt. The Company may
also need to obtain additional debt or equity financing. There can be no
assurance that such debt modifications or financings will be available to the
Company, or that they will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.
Further, any additional equity financing may be dilutive to existing
shareholders.

Impact of Inflation

     Inflation is not considered a material factor affecting the Company's
business.  General operating expenses such as salaries, employee benefits and
occupancy costs are, however, subject to normal inflationary pressures.

Seasonality

     The Company's revenues from its payphone operation regions are affected by
seasonal variations, geographic distribution of payphones and type of location.
Because many of the Company's payphones are located outdoors, weather patterns
have differing effects on the Company's results depending on the region of the
country where they are located.  Most of the Company's payphones in the
southeastern United States produce substantially higher call volume in the first
and second quarters than at other times during the year, while the Company's
payphones throughout the midwestern and eastern United States produce their
highest call volumes during the second and third quarters.  While the aggregate
effect of the variations in different geographical regions tend to counteract
the effect of one another, the Company has historically experienced higher
revenue and income in the second and third quarters than in the first and fourth
quarters.  Changes in the geographical distribution of its payphones may in the
future result in different seasonal variations in the Company's results.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

                                       26
<PAGE>

     On July 20, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (SFAS No. 141), "Business
Combinations", and No. 142 (SFAS No. 142), "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets." SFAS No. 141 addresses financial accounting and reporting for goodwill
and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination at acquisition.
SFAS No. 141 requires the purchase method of accounting to be used for all
business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001; establishes specific
criteria for the recognition of intangible assets separately from goodwill; and
requires unallocated negative goodwill to be written off immediately as an
extraordinary gain (instead of being deferred and amortized). SFAS No.142
addresses financial accounting and reporting for intangible assets acquired
individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired in a
business combination) at acquisition. SFAS No. 142 also addresses financial
accounting and reporting for goodwill and other intangible assets subsequent to
their acquisition. SFAS No. 142 provides that goodwill and intangible assets
which have indefinite useful lives will not be amortized but rather will be
tested at least annually for impairment. It also provides that intangible assets
that have finite useful lives will continue to be amortized over their useful
lives, but those lives will no longer be limited to forty years. SFAS No. 141 is
effective for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and for
all business combinations accounted for by the purchase method for which the
date of acquisition is after June 30, 2001. The provisions of SFAS No. 142 are
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company will
adopt SFAS No. 142 beginning January 1, 2002. The Company is considering the
provisions of SFAS No. 141 and No. 142 and at present has not determined the
impact of adopting SFAS No 141 and SFAS No. 142.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     The Company is exposed to certain market risks inherent in the Company's
financial instruments that arise from transactions entered into in the normal
course of business.  The Company is subject to variable interest rate risk on
its existing Senior Credit Facility and any future financing requirements.  See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources."

     In connection with the provisions of its Senior Credit Facility and the
Company's overall interest rate management objectives, the Company utilizes
derivative financial instruments to reduce its exposure to market risks from
significant increases in interest rates.  The Company's strategy is to purchase
interest rate swaps, collars and caps from large financial institutions to limit
the impact of increases in interest rates on the Company's variable rate long-
term debt.

     As of June 30, 2001, the Company has an interest rate cap agreement with a
notional amount of $15 million that terminates in September 2001.  The interest
rate cap agreement requires premium payments to the counterparty based on the
notional amount of the contracts that are capitalized and amortized to interest
expense over the life of the contract.  This agreement entitles the Company to
receive quarterly payments from the counterparties for amounts, if any, by which
the U.S. three month LIBOR rate exceeds 7%.  In addition, the Company entered
into an interest rate collar agreement with a large financial institution that
terminates in February 2002.  The notional amount of the interest rate collar is
$25 million and the agreement has a cap rate of 6.5% and a floor rate of 4.8%
based on the U.S. one month LIBOR rate.

     Based upon the Company's variable rate indebtedness and weighted average
interest rates at June 30, 2001, a ten percent (or one thousand basis points)
increase in market interest rates would decrease future earnings and cash flows
by approximately $11.6 million per quarter.  A ten percent (or one thousand
basis points) decrease in market interest rates would increase future earnings
and cash flows by approximately $11.8 million per quarter.

                                       27
<PAGE>

     These amounts were determined by considering the impact of hypothetical
interest rates and equity prices on the Company's financial instruments.  These
analyses do not consider the effects of the reduced level of overall economic
activity that could exist in such an environment.  Further, in the event of a
change of such magnitude, management would likely take actions to further
mitigate its exposure to the change.  However, due to the uncertainty of
specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, this analysis
assumes no changes in the Company's financial arrangements or capital structure.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
---------------------------

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     In December 1995, Cellular World, Inc. filed suit in Dade County Circuit
Court against the Company's affiliates, Peoples Telephone and PTC Cellular,
Inc., alleging tortious interference with Cellular World's trade secrets.  The
trial court previously entered partial summary judgment in favor of the Company
as to the plaintiff's trade secrets claim, leaving the tortious interference
claim for trial.

     Trial on the tortious interference claim commenced on February 29, 2000.
The Company had several meritorious legal and factual defenses to plaintiff's
claims. Although the Company believed that it had a reasonable possibility of
prevailing at trial or through an appeal, if necessary, the case presented
significant risks to the Company because the plaintiff intended to ask the jury
to award damages of up to $18 million. Following three days of trial, the
Company and Cellular World agreed to settle and resolve the dispute in its
entirety. Pursuant to the parties' agreement, the Company agreed to pay Cellular
World a total of $1.5 million as follows: (a) $500,000.00 by March 9, 2000; (b)
$250,000.00 by January 5, 2001; and (c) $750,000.00 in 15 equal monthly
installments of $50,000.00 commencing on January 15, 2001 (the "Settlement
Agreement"). Due to the Company's default under the Settlement Agreement, the
parties entered into discussions for purposes of negotiating a revised payment
schedule. Notwithstanding the parties' negotiations, on April 12, 2001, Cellular
World obtained a judgment against Davel Communications Group, Inc., PTC
Cellular, Inc., and Peoples Telephone Company, Inc. in the amount of $750,000.00
plus interest in accordance with the Settlement Agreement (the "Judgment"). On
April 26, 2001, Cellular World obtained an amended judgment, which substituted
Davel Communications, Inc. for Davel Communications Group, Inc. under the
Judgment. On or about June 11, 2001, the parties agreed to the following payment
schedule to satisfy the Judgment: $300,000 by June 15, 2001; $250,000 by July
15, 2001; $50,000 by August 15, 2001; $50,000 by September 15, 2001; and
$100,000, plus post-judgment interest, by October 15, 2001. The Company has
timely made all payments to date under this arrangement.

     On September 29, 1998, the Company announced that it was exercising its
contractual rights to terminate a merger agreement (the "Original Davel/PhoneTel
Merger Agreement") with PhoneTel, based on breaches of representations,
warranties and covenants by PhoneTel.  On October 1, 1998, the Company filed a
lawsuit in Delaware Chancery Court seeking damages, rescission of the Original
Davel/PhoneTel Merger Agreement and a declaratory judgment that such breaches
occurred.  On October 27, 1998, PhoneTel answered the complaint and filed a
counterclaim against the Company alleging that the Original Davel/PhoneTel
Merger Agreement had been wrongfully terminated.  At the same time, PhoneTel
also filed a third party claim against Peoples Telephone (acquired by the
Company on December 23, 1998) alleging that Peoples Telephone wrongfully caused
the termination of the Original Davel/PhoneTel Merger Agreement.  The
counterclaim and third party claim seek specific performance by the Company of
the transactions contemplated by the Original Davel/PhoneTel Merger Agreement
and damages and other equitable relief from the Company and Peoples Telephone.
The Company and PhoneTel currently anticipate settling this litigation in
connection with the announced proposed combination of the companies.

     In December 1999, the Company and its affiliate Telaleasing Enterprises,
Inc. were sued in the United States District Court, Central District of
California, by Telecommunications Consultant Group, Inc. ("TCG") and U.S.
Telebrokers, Inc. ("UST"), two payphone consulting companies which allege to
have assisted the Company in obtaining a telephone placement agreement with CSK
Auto, Inc. The suit alleges that the Company breached its commission agreement
with the plaintiffs based on the Company's alleged wrongful rescission of its
agreement with CSK Auto, Inc. Plaintiffs' amended complaint alleges damages in
excess of $700,000. The Company moved to dismiss the complaint, and, on August
24, 2000, the Court denied the Company's motion. The Company subsequently
answered the complaint and asserted a counterclaim, seeking

                                       29
<PAGE>

declaratory relief. On October 13, 2000, plaintiffs answered the counterclaim,
denying its material allegations. Discovery has commenced in the matter;
however, the matter remains in its early stages, and the Company intends to
vigorously defend itself in the case. While the Company believes it possesses
certain meritorious defenses to the claims, the matter remains in its initial
stages, and, accordingly, the Company cannot at this time predict its likelihood
of success on the merits.

     In March 2000, the Company and its affiliate, Telaleasing Enterprises,
Inc., were sued in a related action in Maricopa County, Arizona Superior Court
by CSK Auto, Inc. ("CSK"). The suit alleges that the Company breached a location
agreement between the parties. CSK's complaint alleges damages in excess of $5
million. The Company removed the case to the U.S. District Court for Arizona and
moved to have the matter transferred to facilitate consolidation with the
related case in California brought by TCG and UST. On October 16, 2000, the U.S.
District Court for Arizona denied the Company's transfer motion and ordered the
case remanded back to Arizona state court. On November 13, 2000, the Company
filed its Notice of Appeal of the remand order to the United States Court of
Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. The appeal and underlying suit are in their
initial stages, and discovery has recently commenced. The Company intends to
vigorously defend itself in the case. While the Company believes it possesses
certain meritorious defenses to the claims, the matter remains in its initial
stages, and, accordingly, the Company cannot at this time predict its likelihood
of success on the merits.

     On or about December 15, 2000, the Company filed and served its Amended
Complaint against LDDS WorldCom, Inc., MCI WorldCom Network Services, Inc., MCI
WorldCom Communications, Inc., and MCI WorldCom Management Company, Inc.
(collectively "Defendants"), claiming a violation of the Telecom Act and
breach of contract and seeking damages and equitable and injunctive relief
associated with Defendants' wrongful withholding of approximately $3.1 million
in dial-around compensation due to the Company, based upon an alleged, unrelated
indebtedness.  The Company believes that the majority of Defendants' claims
consists of charges for fraudulent calls, improperly assessed payphone
surcharges or other erroneous billings, and the Company contends that it is not
liable for the alleged indebtedness.  The Company filed a motion with the Court
for a preliminary injunction, and oral arguments were heard on February 12,
2001.  Additionally, Defendants filed a motion with the Court to dismiss the
Amended Complaint, and oral arguments were heard on April 16, 2001.  Both the
injunction and the motion to dismiss are currently pending before the Court. On
April 25, 2001, the Court ordered parties to mediate the case on or around June
18, 2001, expressly deferring its ruling on the Company's preliminary injunction
motion and Defendants' motion to dismiss until after such time as the parties
have participated in the mediation conference.  Although the Company believes it
possesses meritorious claims in the case, given the uncertainty of litigation,
the parties agreed at the mediation conference to commence negotiating the terms
of a settlement agreement.

     In February 2001, Picus Communications, LLC, a debtor in Chapter 11
bankruptcy in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of
Virginia, brought suit against the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary,
Telaleasing Enterprises, Inc., in the United States District Court for the
Eastern District of Virginia, claiming unpaid invoices of over $600,000 for
local telephone services in Virginia, Maryland, and the District of Columbia.
The Company sought relief from the Bankruptcy Court to assert claims against
Picus and answered Picus's complaint in the District Court, denying its material
allegations. On or about April 2, 2001, Picus moved the District Court to
dismiss its case and indicated that it may file its claim as an adversary
proceeding with the Bankruptcy Court. In such an event, the Company intends to
reassert its counterclaim in Bankruptcy Court. The Company believes it has
meritorious defenses and counterclaims against Picus and intends to vigorously
defend itself and pursue recovery from Picus on its counterclaims. The Company
cannot at this time predict its likelihood of success on the merits.

     The Company is involved in other litigation arising in the usual course of
business which it believes will not materially affect its financial position,
results of operations, or liquidity.
