NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
-----------------------------

 1.    In the opinion of Management, the accompanying unaudited
       financial statements contain all adjustments consisting of only
       normal recurring accruals necessary to present fairly the financial
       position as of March 31, 2000 and 1999, and the results of operations
       for the three months then ended and cash flows for the three months
       then ended. These financial statements should be read with the
       Company's 1999 form 10-K and do not include all disclosures
       associated with annual financial statements.

 2.    In certain instances, amounts previously reported in the
       1999 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to
       conform with the 2000 consolidated financial statements presentation.

       earnings as previously reported.

3.     The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and
       1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
       the full year.

       reflect the conversion of each share of the Registrant's Voting Common
       Stock to 4.4 shares Common Stock and each share of the Registrant's
       Class B Nonvoting Common Stock to 4.0 shares of the Registrant's

9.     SEGMENT INFORMATION

Effective December 31, 1998, the Registrant adopted FAS 131, "Disclosures
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." As a result of
the reorganization of internal reporting, the Registrant has defined and
reports five segments as follows: the incumbent local exchange carrier
("ILEC"), the competitive local exchange carrier ("CLEC"), long distance
services ("LD"), the internet service provider ("ISP") and the digital
wireless group ("DCS"). Accounting policies of the segments are the same as
those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The
Registrant evaluates performance based on operating profit before other
income/(expenses) and income taxes. Intersegment revenues and expenses are
excluded for purposes of calculating earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA") and segment operating
profit/(loss). Selected data by business segment for the three months ended
March 31, 2000 and 1999, is as follows:

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
          Results of Operations


Results of Operations
---------------------

Three months ended March 31, 2000 and March 31, 1999
----------------------------------------------------

         Operating revenues increased $2.6 million or 10.3% to $27.9
million for the three months ended March 31, 2000 when compared to the same
period of 1999.

         Excluding intersegment revenues, ILEC revenue was $20.3 million, a
$1.5 million or 7.7% increase over the same period last year. This increase
was driven by increased demand for local service and increased custom call
feature revenue as a result of telemarketing and sales efforts, as well as
increased access revenue. Over 8,000 new access lines were connected to the
network since March 31, 1999, bringing the total number of local access
lines in the ILEC's three-county service area to over 119,000. The
Registrant is currently a party to two interconnection agreements that give
other CLECs access to the Registrant's local telephone service market. The
Registrant received additional interconnection requests from four other
CLECs in the first quarter of 2000. Some or all of these new agreements may
be finalized in 2000. If so, they are expected to provide additional
competition to the ILEC.

         CLEC revenue was $0.9 million, a $0.4 million or 85.3% increase
over the same period last year. This increase was driven by the addition of
over 2,200 access lines since March 31, 1999, bringing the total lines in
service to nearly 4,400. Approximatley 1,000 of these lines are located at





                                    -10-

Concord Mills Mall in Concord, North Carolina, which opened in late
September, 1999. On April 20, 2000 the Board of Directors of the Registrant
approved a recommendation from the Registrant's management to expand the
competitive footprint of the CLEC to include the Greensboro and Raleigh
markets. In addition to these two markets the CLEC will seek to negotiate
"preferred provider" agreements, similar to the agreement with the Mills
Corp. for its Concord Mills Mall, with developers in other attractive
markets within the Carolinas. Expansion into these markets is projected to
begin late in 2000. The Registrant does not expect to receive significant
revenues from this expansion in 2000.

         LD revenue was $3.5 million, which is comparable to revenue for
the same period last year. Despite the increase in the number of
pre-subscribed access lines and a corresponding increase in minutes,
revenue has remained flat due to the introduction of new, more competitive
LD price plans in the fourth quarter of 1999. These plans have resulted in
a decline in the average revenue per minute. The Registrant expects LD
revenue to begin to increase gradually as usage by existing customers and
the number of customers increase.

         ISP revenue was $1.5 million, a $0.2 million or 14.9% increase
over the same period last year. This increase was driven by an increase in
the number of dial-up, web hosting, dedicated high speed, and digital
subscriber line (DSL) customers. There were approximately 20,200 ISP
customers at March 31, 2000, compared to approximately 14,500 at March 31,
1999. 1,845 customers were added in February 2000 through the acquisition
of Internet of Concord and approximately 900 customers were added in
September 1999 through the acquisition of Catawba Valley Internet
Partnership.

         DCS revenue was $1.6 million, a $0.6 million or 53.5% increase
over the same period last year. This increase was driven by the addition of
approximately 3,700 subscribers since March 31, 1999, bringing the total
number of subscribers to approximately 11,600.

         Operating expenses, exclusive of depreciation and amortization,
increased $2.4 million or 14.6% to $18.9 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2000 when compared to the same period of 1999.

         Excluding intersegment expenses, ILEC operating expenses were
$10.6 million, a $0.4 million or 3.6% increase over the same period last
year. This increase was mainly due to the cost associated with rent and
leases of work equipment and buildings and additional personnel.

         CLEC operating expenses were $2.7 million, a $1.3 million or
100.9% increase over the same period last year. This increase was mainly
due to additional marketing expenses and salaries and commissions. CLEC
operating expenses are expected to increase significantly in 2000 due to
the CLEC expansion program described above. These expenses are expected to
be funded through cash flows from operations, existing cash, cash equivalents
and short-term investments, sales of investment securities, and available
lines of credit.

          LD operating expenses were $1.9 million, a $0.2 million or 7.6%
decrease over the same period last year. This decrease was mainly due to a
decline in access expense due to lower rates on negotiated carrier
termination contracts.

         ISP operating expenses were $1.6 million, a $0.3 million or 27.7%
increase over the same period last year. This increase was mainly due to
the increase in ISP customers and additional personnel.

         DCS operating expenses were $2.0 million, a $0.5 million or 36.0%
increase over the same period last year. This increase was mainly due to
the increase in DCS subscribers.

         Depreciation and amortization expense increased $0.4 million or
11.4% to $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000 when
compared to the same period of 1999. This increase reflects an increase in
depreciable assets.

         Other income (expenses) increased $2.5 million when compared to
the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to:

          o       a $2.9 million pre-tax gain from the sale of 95,000 shares
                  of ITC^DeltaCom stock. This represents an increase of $1.8
                  million in pre-tax gains when compared to the same period
                  last year.  At March 31, 2000, the Company owned over 860,000
                  shares of ITC^DeltaCom.

          o       lower BellSouth Carolinas PCS, LP, and
                  U.S. Telecom Holdings losses reflecting
                  a $0.9 million increase in equity in income of affiliates.

         Income taxes increased $0.9 million or 34.1% to $3.5 million over
the same period last year due primarily to the increase in taxable income
of $2.3 million.

         Net income increased $1.4 million or 37.0% to $5.3 million over the
same period last year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

         The liquidity of the Registrant increased during the three-month
period ended March 31, 2000. Current assets exceeded current liabilities by
$12.4 million at March 31, 2000. In comparison, current assets exceeded
current liabilities by $8.1 million at December 31, 1999.

         Current assets increased by $8.3 million when compared to
December 31, 1999. This increase is primarily due to increased cash and cash
equivalents of $5.4 million due to sales of ITC^DeltaCom stock and an
increase of $4.0 million in short-term borrowings under the First Charter
National Bank line of credit; and increased prepaid expenses and other
assets of $4.2 million due to a $4.1 million up front deposit to the
Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") for additional spectrum that may
be used as a fiber optic alternative. These increases were offset in part
by a decrease in other accounts receivable of $1.5 million due to the
collection of outstanding receivables from Maxcom Telecomunicaciones,
S.A. de C.V. ("Maxcom").

         Current liabilities increased by $4.0 million from December 31,
1999 to March 31, 2000. This increase is primarily attributable to
increases in customer deposits and advance billings of $0.4 million due to
increased customers and revenues; increased income taxes payable of $1.8
million due to taxes accrued on the sale of ITC^DeltaCom shares; and
increased short- term debt of $4.0 million due to the increase in the First
Charter National Bank line of credit. These increases were offset in part
by a decrease in accrued payroll of $1.4 million due to bonus payouts and a
decrease in other accrued liabilities of $0.9 million due to payment of
accrued property taxes.

         The Registrant's principal sources of liquidity were cash
provided by operations of $6.6 million and proceeds from the sale of
investment securities of $7.1 million. The Registrant's other sources of
liquidity were proceeds from an increase in long-term debt of $5.0 million,
proceeds from an increase short-term debt of $4.0 million, partnership
capital distributions of $2.0 million, and proceeds from issuances of
common stock of $0.3 million.


                                     -12-

<PAGE>



         Uses of cash during the period included capital expenditures of
$9.0 million, purchase of investment securities of $4.5 million,
short-term deposit to the FCC related to the wireless broadband network of
$4.1 million, payment of dividends of $1.2 million, and acquisitions of
$0.8 million.

         At March 31, 2000, the fair market value of the Registrant's
investment securities was $80.8 million, all of which could be pledged to
secure additional borrowing or sold, if needed for liquidity purposes. The
Registrant has an unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of
banks for $60.0 million, of which $25.0 million was outstanding on March
31, 2000. The interest rate on the credit facility is variable based on
LIBOR plus a spread based on the Registrant's ratio of debt to EBITDA. The
interest rate on March 31, 2000 was 6.55%. In addition, the Registrant has
a $5.0 million revolving credit facility with First Charter National Bank
at a variable interest rate based on LIBOR plus 1.25%. The interest rate
under this facility was 7.285% at March 31, 2000. The Registrant also has a
$5.0 million revolving credit facility with Rural Telephone Finance
Corporation at an interest rate not to exceed a specified prime rate plus
1.5%. At March 31, 2000, there were no amounts outstanding under this
facility.

         The Registrant anticipates that all of the capital requirements in
2000 associated with its construction program, expansion of its CLEC
operations, payments associated with long-term debt and investments as
summarized above will be provided by cash flows from operations, existing
cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, sales of investment
securities, and the available lines of credit.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
----------------------------------------------------

         The foregoing discussion contains "forward-looking statements," as
defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, about the Registrant that are based on the
beliefs of management, as well as assumptions made by, and information
currently available to management. Management has based these
forward-looking statements on its current expectations and projections
about future events and trends affecting the financial condition and
operations of the Registrant's business. These forward-looking statements
are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking
statements.

         Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from
these forward-looking statements are (1) the Registrant's ability to
respond effectively to the sweeping changes in industry conditions creased
by the Telecommunications Act of 1996, and related state and federal
legislation and regulations, (2) the Registrant's ability to recover the
substantial costs to be incurred in connection with the implementation of
its various new businesses, (3) the Registrant's ability to retain its
existing customer base against local and long distance service competition,
and to market such services to new customers, (4) the Registrant's ability
to effectively manage rapid changes in technology, and (5) the Registrant's
ability to effectively respond to the actions of its competitors.

         The words and phrases such as "expects," "estimates," "intends,"
"plans," "believes," "projection," "will continue" and "is anticipated" are
intended to identify forward-looking statements. In making forward-looking
statements, the Registrant claims the protection of the safe harbor for
forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995. The Registrant undertakes no obligation to update or
revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise. All forward-looking statements
should be viewed with caution.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

         The Registrant has an unsecured revolving credit facility with a
syndicate of banks for $60.0 million of which $25.0 million was outstanding
on March 31, 2000. The interest rate on the credit facility is variable
based on LIBOR plus a spread based on the Registrant's ratio of debt to
EBITDA. The interest rate was 6.55% on March 31, 2000. The Registrant
entered into an interest rate swap transaction to fix $10.0 million of the
outstanding principal at a rate of 5.9% plus a spread, currently 0.5%. The
interest rate swap will protect the Registrant against an upward movement
in interest rates, but subjects the Registrant to above market interest
costs if interest rates decline. The Registrant had $4.0 million
outstanding on an unsecured revolving credit loan with First Charter
National Bank on March 31, 2000. The interest rate on this credit facility
is variable based on LIBOR plus 1.25%. The interest rate was 7.285% on
March 31, 2000. Management believes that reasonably foreseeable movements
in interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on the
Registrant's financial condition or operations.
