         NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                  (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1--FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

    The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of Telscape International, Inc. and its subsidiaries
(collectively, the "Company"). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements of the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998
and September 30, 1999 have been prepared without an audit pursuant to the rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. They do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary
to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows
for all periods presented have been made. Operating results for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1999. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1998.

MANAGEMENT'S ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

    The accompanying financial statements are prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles which require management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reported period. The Company reviews all significant estimates
affecting the financial statements on a recurring basis and records the effect
of any necessary adjustments prior to their issuance. The actual results could
differ from those estimates.

CONCENTRATION OF RISK--MEXICO

    The devaluation of the Mexican peso in late 1994 caused Mexico to experience
an economic crisis characterized by exchange rate instability, increased
inflation, high domestic interest rates, reduced consumer purchasing power and
high unemployment. Consequently, the Mexican government has exercised, and
continues to exercise, significant influence over the Mexican economy.
Accordingly, Mexican governmental actions could have a significant effect on
Mexican companies, including the Company's customers, and overall market
conditions.

    The Company's foreign currency risk is mitigated in Mexico due to the fact
that many of the Company's customers are multinational firms that pay in U.S.
dollars. In addition, most of the customers that do pay in pesos pay at the spot
exchange rate in effect at the time of payment as opposed to the exchange rate
at the time the receivable is created. Significant adverse effects from any
downturns in the Mexican economy could result in an adverse effect on the
Company's operations. The Company also has a significant amount of its payables
denominated in pesos, which exposes the Company to exchange rate risk. In
addition, the Company has begun construction of a fiber-optic long distance
network in Mexico which will significantly increase its operations in Mexico.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

    SFAS No. 133, "ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING
ACTIVITIES," requires companies to recognize all derivatives contracts as either
assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and to measure them at

                                       5

NOTE 1--FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

fair value. If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically
designated as a hedge, the objective of which is to match the timing of gain or
loss recognition on the hedging derivative with the recognition of (i) the
changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable
to the hedged risk or (ii) the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted
transaction. For a derivative not designated as a hedging instrument, the gain
or loss is recognized in income in the period of change. SFAS No. 133 is
effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.

    Historically, the Company has not entered into derivatives contracts either
to hedge existing risks or for speculative purposes. The Company does not expect
adoption of the new standard to have a material effect on its financial
statements.

    SOP 98-5, "REPORTING ON THE COSTS OF START-UP ACTIVITIES," requires all
start-up and organizational costs to be expensed as incurred. It also requires
all remaining historically capitalized amounts of these costs existing at the
date of adoption to be expensed and reported as the cumulative effect of a
change in accounting principles. SOP 98-5 is effective for all fiscal years
beginning after December 31, 1998. The adoption of SOP 98-5 did not have a
material effect on its financial statements.

    SFAS No. 135, "RESCISSION OF FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS BOARD NO. 75
("SFAS NO. 75") AND TECHNICAL CORRECTIONS," rescinds SFAS No. 75 and amends
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board No. 35. SFAS No. 135 also
amends other existing authoritative literature to make various technical
corrections, clarify meanings, or describe applicability under changed
conditions. SFAS No. 135 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years ending after February 15, 1999. The Company believes that the adoption of
SFAS No. 135 will not have a material effect on its financial statements.

    Earnings (loss) per share is calculated as follows:

NOTE 2--EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE (CONTINUED)

    Diluted EPS for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999 was not
disclosed on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations as the
effect is anti-dilutive. Certain performance based warrants issued in connection
with the Company's acquisitions vested upon the achievement of certain operating
performance measures. In accordance with SFAS 128, these contingently issuable
shares were included in the calculation of diluted EPS when all the necessary
conditions were met. For purposes of the diluted EPS calculations for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 1999, there were 1,170,367 and 1,238,367
options and warrants outstanding, respectively, which were not included in the
calculation of diluted EPS as their exercise prices were greater than the
average market price of the Company's common stock during the period and
inclusion of these securities in the calculation would result in an
anti-dilutive effect.

NOTE 3--CONSTRUCTION IN PROGRESS

    The Company began construction of a long distance fiber optic network in
Mexico late in the second quarter of 1999. Provided that the necessary funding
is obtained, the Company expects that the network will be completed in the
fourth quarter of 1999 and become operational in the first quarter of 2000.

    Amounts incurred through September 30, 1999 on the network total
$30.9 million of which $14.2 million has been funded through the Lucent
Facility. As of September 30, 1999, there are approximately $12.0 million in
costs due to Lucent classified as accounts payable awaiting funding under the
Lucent Facility once the remaining conditions precedent to additional fundings
under the Lucent Facility are satisfied.

    The Company estimates that there are an additional $10-$15 million in
expenditures related to the network and its network expansions which will not be
funded through the Lucent Facility.

    The annual maturity of the debt indicated above for the five years following
September 30, 1999 are $809,000 in 1999, $3,635,000 in 2000, $10,230,000 in

    On January 11, 1999, the Company signed a financing arrangement with a
finance company which provides for funding of equipment purchases of up to
$7.0 million through December 31, 1999. The financing is structured as loans
maturing January 1, 2005. The loans provide for payments of interest only
through January 1, 2000. Thereafter, payments of principal and interest are due
quarterly. Interest is calculated on available basis during the interest only
period at 425 basis points above the 90 day commercial paper rate. Interest
thereafter is calculated at 500 basis points above the five year Federal Reserve
Treasury Constant Maturity Rate. The Company has drawn approximately
$5.6 million under this facility through November 5, 1999, of which
$2.5 million resulted in refinancing equipment, which was previously financed
through an operating lease. The Company is not in compliance with certain
financial covenants under this loan facility and has secured a waiver from the
finance company of their rights under the agreement to enforce default
provisions due to non compliance with these financial covenants for the third
quarter of 1999. The Company also agreed that should the lender in the Lennox
facility decide to terminate the Lennox facility prior to funding the entire
$10.0 million amount of the facility, the finance company may declare a default
under the agreement and accelerate the maturity date. The amounts outstanding
under this facility of $5.6 million have been classified as current in the
financial statements as of September 30, 1999. The Company may have to request
additional waivers from the finance company due to non compliance with financial
covenants in future quarters. The Company cannot guarantee that the finance
company would provide the Company with additional waivers in which case they
could enforce the default provisions and accelerate the maturity date. Should
that be the case, there is no guarantee that the Company would be able to obtain
a replacement facility. A default under this agreement could trigger cross
defaults with several of our other obligations totaling $31.3 million at
September 30, 1999.

    In July 1999, the Company received a bridge loan of $3.0 million from Lucent
("Lucent Bridge Loan"). The Lucent Bridge Loan was repaid on August 27, 1999,
upon the funding of the Lucent facility. In connection therewith, the Company
issued to Lucent warrants to purchase an aggregate of 85,000 shares of Common
Stock at an exercise price of $8.50 per share. The warrants have a term of three
years.

    On May 7, 1999, the Company issued $6,850,000 in Senior Notes (the "Senior
Notes") originally maturing in November 2000. E. Scott Crist, CEO of the
Company, is holder of the remaining $850,000 balance of the Senior Notes ("Crist
Loan"). The maturity of the Crist Loan can be extended unilaterally by the
Company through January 4, 2001. In the event that the Crist Loan is not paid by
November 5, 1999, then Mr. Crist will be issued an additional 31,805 warrants.
In the event that the Crist Loan is not paid by May 5, 2000, then Mr. Crist will
be issued an additional 31,805 warrants. As a result, the Crist Loan is
classified as long-term in the financial statements as of September 30, 1999.
The Company repaid $6,000,000 of the Senior Notes on August 27, 1999, upon the
funding of the Lucent facility. The Crist Loan bears interest at 8% from May
through November 6, 1999. Thereafter, the interest rate increases by 1 percent
for each month after November 6, 1999. Pursuant to the terms of the Senior
Notes, the Company issued to the holders of the Senior Notes a total of 256,315
warrants at an exercise price of $6.68. The proceeds from the Senior Notes were
utilized to repay the entire principal amount of the Gordon Brothers Convertible
Debentures plus $1.1 million in exit fees. The Company estimated the fair value
of the warrants by utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the
following assumptions: dividend yield

of 0%, expected volatility of 53.91%, risk free interest rate of 5% and expected
life of 3 months. The resulting cost of approximately $398,000 will be amortized
as interest expense over three months.

    On June 18, 1999, the Company issued $2,000,000 in Senior Notes (the "$2
Million Senior Notes") maturing December 18, 2000. The $2 Million Senior Notes
are subject to optional prepayment provisions allowing the Company to prepay a
portion or all of the outstanding principal amount without premium or penalty.
The $2 Million Senior Notes bear interest at 8% from June through December 17,
1999. Thereafter, the interest rate increases by 1 percent for each month after
December 17, 1999. The Company also issued to the holders of the $2 Million
Senior Notes a total of 62,501 warrants with an exercise price of $8.00 per
share and a term of three years. In the event that the $2 Million Senior Notes
are not paid by December 18, 1999, then the holders will be issued an additional
62,501 warrants. In the event that the $2 Million Senior Notes are not paid by
June 18, 2000, then the holders will be issued an additional 62,501 warrants in
which case the final maturity date is December 18, 2000. The Company may
unilaterally extend the maturity date of the $2 Million Senior Notes an
additional 60 days beyond December 18, 2000. The Company estimated the fair
value of the warrants by utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model with
the following assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 53.91%,
risk free interest rate of 5% and expected life of 2 months. The resulting cost
of approximately $116,000 will be amortized as interest expense over two months.

    In July 1999, the Company's Revolving Credit Facility expired and the
Company repaid all amounts outstanding at that time.

    On July 28, 1999, the Company issued an unsecured and subordinated
promissory note in the amount of $576,000 maturing on November 24, 1999. The
Company may prepay this note with no penalty subject to the following
limitations. In the event that the Company's common stock closes above $11 per
share for the five consecutive trading days prior to November 24, 1999, the
Company may elect to pay the holder the principal amount in cash plus accrued
interest at a rate of 15% per annum. In the event that the price of the
Company's stock is greater than $5.25 per share and less than $11 per share at
the time of maturity, the Company must provide the holder of the note with
91,042 shares of the Company's common stock as payment of the note and no
interest shall be owing. In the event that the price of the Company's common
stock is less than $5.25 per share, the Company agrees to pay the note in cash
at maturity plus accrued interest at 15% per annum.

    On August 27, 1999, Telscape International, Inc., the registrant, along with
its subsidiaries, Telereunion S.A. de C.V. ("Telereunion"), Telereunion
International, S.A. de C.V., Telereunion, Inc., Telscape USA, Inc., MSN

and M.S. Noticias y Telecomunicaciones, S.A. de C.V. (collectively, the
"Borrowers") signed a credit agreement ("Credit Agreement") with Lucent
Technologies, Inc. ("Lucent").

    The Credit Agreement provides for up to $40 million in financing. The
registrant borrowed $23.9 million under the Credit Agreement on August 27, 1999,
of which $9.0 million was utilized to repay the $3.0 million Lucent Bridge Loan
and $6.0 million of the Senior Notes and $14.9 million was utilized to pay for
costs directly related to construction of the network and debt offering costs.

the Credit Agreement are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions
precedent, one of which has not been satisfied as of the date of this filing.

    The Credit Agreement provides for principal payments on each Loan to be made
in nine installments with the first installment due on the first anniversary of
the closing date with each succeeding installment due in six month increments.
The amount of the payment on each installment shall be a percentage of the total
aggregate amount of the Loan, as follows: installments 1-2: 5%; installments
3-4: 10%; installments 5-6: 12.5%; installments 7-9: 15%. In addition, the
Credit Agreement provides for annual mandatory prepayments beginning in the year
ended December 31, 2000 equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow of such year. Excess
Cash Flow is defined in the Credit Agreement and includes EBITDA (as defined)
less certain items including capital expenditures, payments of indebtedness,
income tax payments, and equity investments in telecommunications companies.

    Interest under the Credit Agreement is calculated, at the Borrowers' option,
at either the London interbank offered rates plus an Applicable Margin or the
Bank of America, N.A. prime lending rate plus an Applicable Margin. Applicable
Margin is defined as follows: Year 1: 5.75%; Year 2: 6.00%; Year 3: 6.25%; Year
4: 6.75%, Year 5: 7.25%. The Company has the option of borrowing under the
Credit Facility for interest payments until the first anniversary date of the
closing date. There is a 0.75% commitment fee on the unutilized and undrawn
commitment until the commitment termination date, which is on the first
anniversary of the closing date of the Credit Agreement.

    The Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of the assets of the
Company including the network assets, accounts receivable, the capital stock and
equity interests of the subsidiaries of Telscape International, and all other
tangible and intangible assets of the Company excluding encumbered assets at the
time of signing.

    The Credit Agreement includes several covenants including financial
performance covenants as well as covenants which limit the ability of the
Company to take on additional borrowings, merge with or acquire other companies
without the lender's prior approval.

    On October 22, 1999, the Company signed a loan agreement with Lennox
Invest Ltd., a BVI Corporation, which provides for funding of up to
$10.0 million (the "Lennox Facility"). Each individual funding under the
agreement is to be evidenced by a Promissory Note maturing 180 days from its
respective funding. A total of $1.5 million has been funded on this facility,
which bears interest at 10% per annum. Interest on each Note is to be paid at
maturation of the respective Note. For every $1,000,000 advanced under the
agreement, the Company is obligated to issue a three year warrant to Lennox to
acquire 35,714 shares of the Company at an exercise price related to the market
price of the common stock. For every $1,000,000 that is outstanding for more
than one month, the Company is obligated to issue an additional three-year
warrant to acquire 35,714 shares of the Company. For every $1,000,000 that is
outstanding for more than two months, the Company is obligated to issue a third
three-year warrant to acquire 35,714 shares of the Company. Either party may
terminate the agreement after the funding of $3 million without any further
liability. The collateral provided for under the Lennox Facility consists of
Telscape common stock owned directly or indirectly by certain members of
management provided on a formula basis based on the level of borrowings
outstanding under the Lennox Facility and the market value of the Company's
common stock.

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

    The statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not
historical facts are "forward-looking statements" (as such term is defined in
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995), which can be identified
by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "believes," "expects," "may,"
"estimates," "will," "should," "plans" or "anticipates" or the negative thereof
or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussions of
strategy. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements under the
captions "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations" and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as to
the Company's plans to implement its growth strategy, improve its financial
performance, expand its infrastructure, develop new products and services,
expand its sales force, expand its customer base and enter international
markets. In addition, from time to time, the Company or its representatives have
made or may make forward-looking statements, orally or in writing. Furthermore,
such forward-looking statements may be included in, but are not limited to,
various filings made by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "Commission"), or press releases or oral statements made by or with the
approval of an authorized executive officer of the Company.

    Management wishes to caution the reader that the forward-looking statements
referred to above and contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q regarding
matters that are not historical facts involve and are based on numerous
assumptions and predictions about future conditions that could prove not to be
accurate. No assurance can be given that the future results will be achieved;
actual events, transactions or results may differ materially as a result of
risks facing the Company. Such risks include, but are not limited to, the
effectiveness of management's strategies and decisions, the ability to raise the

</TABLE>

    In the International Long Distance Segment, the Company derives its revenues
from the sale of U.S. outbound international long distance services to Latin
America, principally Mexico. The Company provides these services on a wholesale
basis to other carriers and on a retail basis through the sale of prepaid phone
cards. The Company has been focusing on the expansion of its retail prepaid
calling card brand, TELEFIESTA-REGISTERED TRADEMARK-, as the long distance
business has come under increasing competitive pressure and contracting margins.
As pricing pressures have affected the international long distance revenues,
management has elected to dedicate its network assets to supporting its retail
business due to management's belief that the retail business has greater long
term value. The Company intends to expand its retail offerings in the future as
it expands it network facilities. The Company started offering prepaid calling
cards for sale in Mexico during the third quarter. The Company believes that
owning a long distance network in Mexico will increase the percentage of minutes
of traffic it carries on-net, enabling it to increase revenues, margins and
profitability and ensure quality of service on both international and domestic
long distance traffic. The Company began construction of their network late in
the second quarter of 1999 and expects to complete it by the end of the year. As
of the end of the third quarter, obligations and expenditures incurred by the
Company for its network in Mexico, accounted for as construction in progress,
totaled $30.9 million

    In the Advanced Services Segment, the Company derives its revenues
principally from three areas: Network Solutions, Customer Relationship
Management and Broadband Services and Products.

    The Company provides Network Solution services to private and public sector
customers in Mexico. Revenues from these services are expected to soften due to
the Company's efforts to restructure its product and services offerings to
concentrate on higher margin value-added services and away from lower margin
equipment-only sales and may soften as a result of weakening economic conditions
in Mexico. As traditional telecommunications services become more of a
commodity, the Company believes that Network Solution services will become an
increasingly important component of the Company's service offerings. The Company
has leveraged its systems integration expertise to provide outsourced network
management services to local and multi-national business customers in Mexico. A
natural migration is occurring in the Network Solutions business as customers
migrate from private networking solutions to solutions that depend on the public
network. The Company believes that the build-out of the Mexican Network will
enhance its ability to provide these services by allowing it to provide a
complete package of network solutions and data, voice, video and Internet
services under one umbrella to its customers.

    The Company provides Customer Relationship Management services through its
customer management call center in Mexico. This call center was established in
late 1997 with the signing of the contract

                                       15
<PAGE>
with the U.S. Embassy. Revenues from these services have increased significantly
with the expansion of the facility and the addition of other customers including
the Mexican Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The Company expects revenues from these
services to continue to grow in the future. The Company has secured a new
facility for the call center that will allow it to increase its capacity from
its current operator base of approximately 180 to approximately 700. The Company
expects to occupy the new facility and have it in full operation by early in the
first quarter of 2000.

    The Company provides Broadband Services and Products through its INTERLINK
subsidiary. INTERLINK operates a satellite teleport facility in Mountain View,
California and provides voice, video, data and Internet services including
fractional and full T-1 data broadcast, dedicated circuits and private line
up-link and down-link services in the U.S., Latin America and other parts of the
world. INTERLINK has expanded its product offering to include
Bandwidth-on-Demand, Integrated Services Digital Network ("ISDN") video
conferencing and Internet-through-satellite services. INTERLINK serves as an
Internet backbone provider to Internet service providers ("ISPs") and
universities in remote areas where access to high speed fiber optics is limited,
such as the case in many Latin American countries.

    In the second quarter of 1999, the Company began the construction of the
Mexican Network, a combined fiber-optic and microwave long distance network,
connecting the Gulf region of Mexico with certain key Mexican cities. The first
stage of the Mexican Network consists of 650 km of fiber optic cable and
microwave, circuit switched type of transmission and switching facilities, in
the Gulf region of Mexico from Mexico City to Puebla, Puebla to Veracruz and
Veracruz to Poza Rica. The Company intends to lease and swap capacity from other
long distance providers to connect with the central (Mexico City, Guanajuato and
Guadalajara) and northeast (Monterrey) regions of Mexico, and to install
switching facilities in Mexico City and Monterrey. In May 1999, the Company
signed an agreement with Avantel S.A., which owns the second largest network in
Mexico, to exchange strands of fiber along 1100 kilometers of Avantel's network
from Poza Rica to Reynosa (providing the Company with a border crossing) to
Monterrey for strands of fiber along 650 kilometers of the Company's network.
The agreement is subject to regulatory approval. The Company believes that more
than half of the domestic long distance traffic and nearly half of the domestic
residential long distance traffic originates in the region that will be serviced
by the Mexican Network. The Company is currently negotiating fiber exchange
agreements with other concessionaires. The Company's Mexican Network, when
complete, will link 22 cities and towns and cover, including interconnection
agreements, the majority of the population in Mexico. As of the end of the third
quarter, obligations and expenditures incurred by the Company for its network in
Mexico, accounted for as construction in progress, totaled $30.9 million.

GROSS PROFIT.

    The Company has been experiencing pricing pressure on its international long
distance services resulting in lowering of gross profit percentage and
contribution. The Company has not been able to reduce its termination costs as
quickly as prices have declined in the international long distance business and
has relied partially on certain lower margin outsourcing arrangements to support
its prepaid calling cards. Upon the completion of its own long distance network
in Mexico, expected in early 2000, the Company believes that the percentage of
minutes of traffic it carries on-net will increase, effectively lowering its
termination costs.

    In its Advanced Services segment, the Company has been successful in
increasing the overall percentage of revenues derived from enhanced, value-added
services and as a result has seen a significant increase in gross profits as a
percentage of revenues from these services.

    OPERATING EXPENSES.  With the selection of Lucent to engineer, furnish and
install the Company's long distance network in Mexico, the Company is moving
into a period of significant investment in facilities and human resources. As a
result, the Company expects operating expenses to continue to increase.

                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED
  SEPTEMBER 30, 1998

    REVENUES decreased from $36,529,000 in 1998 to $26,613,000 in 1999. This
decrease of $9,916,000, or 27.1%, was due principally to the Company's decision
to reduce sales to distributors of low margin equipment in Mexico, a decline in
the Company's international long distance revenues, a decrease in the Company's
Broadband services and products and the weakened economic conditions in Mexico.
These declines were offset by an increase in revenues from the Company's
Customer Relationship Management services. Network Solutions revenues in Mexico
decreased $7,491,000 from $10,127,000 in 1998 to $2,636,000 in 1999. This
decline is largely attributable to the Company's refocusing on higher margin
products and a general slowdown in the market caused by weakened economic
conditions in Mexico and concerns about the Y2K virus. Wholesale international
long distance revenues decreased $5,814,000 from $9,839,000 in 1998 to
$4,025,000 in 1999. Retail international long distance revenues increased
$2,010,000 from $13,044,000 in 1998 to $15,054,000 in 1999. Customer
Relationship Management services revenues increased $1,624,000 from $939,000 in
1998 to $2,563,000 in 1999 as the Company increased its operator positions to
accommodate higher demand for its services. Broadband Services and Products
revenues decreased $245,000 from $2,580,000 in 1998 to $2,335,000 in 1999 due to
decreased sales of manufacturing products in this quarter.

    COST OF REVENUES decreased from $29,727,000 in 1998 to $23,602,000 in 1999,
or $6,125,000. The 20.6% decrease in cost of revenues was due principally to the
decrease of revenues offset by the increased costs associated with the
international long distance services. The cost of revenues as a percentage of
revenues increased from 81.4% to 88.7%, or 7.3%, due principally to the increase
in costs of revenues as a percentage of revenues associated with international
long distance revenues offset by the effect of relatively lower costs of
revenues from the Company's Advanced Services business.

    SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES ("SG&A") increased from
$3,660,000 in 1998 to $5,949,000 in 1999, or $2,289,000. The 62.5% increase in
SG&A was due to the overhead necessary to support the growth in the Company's
Customer Relationship Management operations, the increased staffing associated
with the Mexican network build out and increased staffing at existing operations
to meet the additional resource requirements associated with these operations.

    Overall SG&A as a percentage of revenues increased from 10.0% to 22.4%, or
12.4%, due to the factors stated above.

    DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION increased from $960,000 in 1998 to $1,601,000
in 1999, or $641,000. This increase is due to an increase in goodwill
amortization associated with the acquisition INTERLINK. In addition,
depreciation increased as a result of the Company's continuing expansion of its
communications network, which includes purchases of switches and other
telecommunications equipment and facilities. The Company expects depreciation
expense to increase as it continues to expand its telecommunications network.

    INTEREST INCOME (EXPENSE), NET increased from ($272,000) in 1998 to
($445,000) in 1999, or ($173,000). This increase was mainly due to an increase
in the Company's level of borrowings, including the financing agreement used to
finance approximately $5.6 million in equipment, the Lucent credit agreement and
the Senior Notes. During the third quarter of 1999, the Company capitalized
interest expense attributable to its Mexico network construction in the amount
of $194,000.

    OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE) decreased from ($403,000) in 1998 to $1,000 in 1999,
or $404,000. The Company recognized a foreign exchange gain of $367,000 in the
third quarter of 1999 as compared to a foreign exchange loss of (581,000) in the
third quarter of 1998. In addition, the Company incurred $292,000 in
amortization of debt offering costs. Included in debt offering costs are
warrants the Company issued to the holders of the Deere Park Convertible
Debentures, Gordon Brothers Convertible Debentures, the Lucent Bridge Loan, the
Senior Notes and the $2 Million Senior Notes. These warrants were

                                       17
<PAGE>
valued utilizing the Black-Scholes pricing model and the resulting amount is
amortized as interest expense over the life of the notes.

    INCOME TAX BENEFIT (EXPENSE) changed from an income tax expense of
($652,000) in 1998 to an income tax benefit of $1,288,000 in 1999. The Company's
overall effective tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 1999, was
25.9% which reflect the tax benefits recognized on the losses realized offset by
permanent items, the most significant of which is the non deductible nature of
goodwill amortization.

    NET INCOME (LOSS).  The Company experienced net income of $869,000 in 1998
as compared to a net loss of ($3,695,000) in 1999 due to a combination of the
factors discussed above.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED
  SEPTEMBER 30, 1998

    REVENUES decreased from $102,306,000 in 1998 to $83,341,000 in 1999. This
decrease of $18,965,000, or 18.5%, was due principally to the Company's decision
to reduce sales to distributors of low margin equipment in Mexico, a decline in
the Company's international long distance revenues in its wholesale segment, and
weakened economic conditions in Mexico. These declines were offset by an
increase in revenues from the Company's Customer Relationship Management
services, the incremental sales of the Company's INTERLINK subsidiary, which was
acquired in May 1998, and an increase in the Company's international long
distance revenues on a retail basis. As a result, Network Solutions revenues in
Mexico decreased $14,590,000 from $24,525,000 in 1998 to $9,935,000 in 1999.
This decline is largely attributable to the Company's refocusing on higher
margin products and a general slowdown in the market caused by the weakened
economic condition in Mexico and concerns about the Y2K virus. Wholesale
international long distance revenues decreased $14,877,000 from $26,641,000 in
1998 to $11,764,000 in 1999. Retail international long distance revenues
increased $4,255,000 from $45,471,000 in 1998 to $49,726,000 in 1999. Customer
Relationship Management services revenues increased $3,706,000 from $1,883,000
in 1998 to $5,589,000 in 1999 as the Company increased its operator positions to
accommodate higher demand for its services. Broadband Services and Products
revenues increased $2,541,000 from $3,786,000 in 1998 to $6,327,000 in 1999.

    COST OF REVENUES decreased from $86,783,000 in 1998 to $72,861,000 in 1999,
or $13,922,000. The 16.0% decrease in cost of revenues was due principally to
the decrease of revenues offset by the increased costs associated with the
international long distance services. This decrease in cost of revenues was also
offset by the incremental cost of revenues associated with the acquisition of
INTERLINK. The cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues increased from 84.8%
to 87.4%, or 2.6%, due principally to the higher cost of revenues as a
percentage of revenues associated with the Company's international long distance
services. This increase was offset partially by the decrease in cost of revenues
as a percentage of revenues associated with the Customer relationship management
revenues.

    SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES ("SG&A") increased from
$9,365,000 in 1998 to $15,337,000 in 1999, or $5,972,000. The 63.8% increase in
SG&A was due to the overhead necessary to support the growth in the Company's
Customer Relationship Management operations, the incremental SG&A related to the
acquisition of INTERLINK, the increased staffing associated with the Mexican
network build out and increased staffing at existing operations to meet the
additional resource requirements associated with these operations.

    Overall SG&A as a percentage of revenues increased from 9.2% to 18.4%, or
9.2%, due to the factors stated above.

    DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION increased from $2,218,000 in 1998 to
$4,638,000 in 1999, or $2,420,000. This increase is due to an increase in
goodwill amortization associated with the acquisitions of Telereunion and
INTERLINK. In addition, depreciation increased as a result of the Company's
continuing expansion of its communications network, which includes purchases of
switches and other telecommunications

                                       18
<PAGE>
equipment and facilities. The Company expects depreciation expense to increase
as it continues to expand its telecommunications network.

    INTEREST INCOME (EXPENSE), NET increased from ($513,000) in 1998 to
($2,250,000) in 1999, or ($1,737,000). This increase was mainly due to an
increase in the Company's level of borrowings, including the Deere Park
Convertible Debentures and Gordon Brothers Convertible Debentures issued in
connection with the INTERLINK acquisition, the Senior Notes and the $2 Million
Senior Notes.

    The Gordon Brothers Convertible Debentures provide for an "exit fee" which
was paid at the time of the repayment of the Gordon Brothers Convertible
Debentures in May 1999. The Company paid an "exit fee" of $1.1 million of which
$648,000 was accrued during the six months ended June 30, 1999. In addition, the
Company repaid $1.0 million of the Deere Park Convertible Subordinated
Debentures in May 1999. The Company paid an "exit fee" of $120,000 which was
accrued during the six months ended June 30, 1999.

    Lastly, the Company recognized additional interest expenses related to its
equipment financing agreements and the Lucent Credit agreement.

    OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE) increased from ($504,000) in 1998 to ($1,431,000) in
1999, or $(927,000). The Company recognized a foreign exchange gain of $262,000
in the first nine months of 1999 as compared to a foreign exchange loss of
($768,000) in the first nine months of 1998. In addition, the Company incurred
$1,152,000 in amortization of debt offering costs. Included in debt offering
costs are warrants the Company issued to the holders of the Deere Park
Convertible Debentures, Gordon Brothers Convertible Debentures, the Lucent
Bridge Loan, the Senior Notes and the $2 Million Senior Notes. These warrants
were valued utilizing the Black-Scholes pricing model and the resulting amount
is amortized as interest expense over the life of the notes.

    INCOME TAX BENEFIT (EXPENSE) changed from an income tax expense of
($1,547,000) in 1998 to an income tax benefit of $3,539,000 in 1999. The
Company's overall effective tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30,
1999, was 26.9% which reflect the tax benefits recognized on the losses realized
offset by permanent items, the most significant of which is the non deductible
nature of goodwill amortization.

    NET INCOME (LOSS).  The Company experienced net income of $1,361,000 in 1998
as compared to a net loss of $(9,637,000) in 1999 due to a combination of the
factors discussed above.

                        LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    Net cash provided by operating activities was $6,691,000 and $1,388,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and September 30, 1999, respectively.
The Company's operating results contributed to the decline in cash from
operating activities.

    Net cash used in investing activities was ($19,769,000) and ($26,522,000)
for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and September 30, 1999,
respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the Company expended
approximately $9.1 million on purchases of, or deposits on, property and
equipment as part of the Company's network expansion strategy. In addition, the
Company acquired MSN for $2.3 million, net of cash acquired and INTERLINK for
$8.3 million, net of cash acquired. For the nine months ended September 30,
1999, the Company expended approximately $26.5 million on purchases of property
and equipment as part of the Company's network expansion strategy.

    Net cash provided by financing activities was $15,545,000 and $21,543,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and September 30, 1999,
respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the Company
realized approximately $3.3 million (net of commissions) from sales of its
common stock and exercise of options and warrants. The Company also received
$12,426,000 in short term financing and $23,935,000 in financing under the
Lucent credit facility. The Company made payments of $1,295,000 on its notes
payable, $6,000,000 on its convertible debt, $9,000,000 on its short term
financings and $1,688,000 on the Revolving Line of Credit.

                                       19
<PAGE>
    As of September 30, 1999, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
$6,040,000 and negative working capital of $27.0 million. Of this
$27.0 million, approximately $12.0 million represents accounts payable incurred
in connection with the construction of the Mexican Network, $5.1 million
represents long term debt reclassified as short term due to a covenant default
and $3.2 million represents other network expenditures classified as short term
obligations. The Company plans to finance the $12.0 million under the Lucent
credit agreement subject to availability as discussed below.

    In the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company signed a financing arrangement
with a finance company, which provides for funding of equipment purchases of up
to $6.0 million through May 1999. The financing is structured as loans maturing
three years from funding at interest rates 550 basis points above the Federal
Reserve Treasury Constant Maturity Rate. The Company has drawn approximately
$2.0 million in the first nine months of 1999 under this facility.

    On January 11, 1999, the Company signed a financing arrangement with a
finance company which provides for funding of equipment purchases of up to
$7.0 million through December 31, 1999. The financing is structured as loans
maturing January 1, 2005. The loans provide for payments of interest only
through January 1, 2000. Thereafter, payments of principal and interest are due
quarterly. Interest is calculated on available basis during the interest only
period at 425 basis points above the 90-day commercial paper rate. Interest
thereafter is calculated at 500 basis points above the five year Federal Reserve
Treasury Constant Maturity Rate. The Company has drawn approximately
$5.6 million under this facility through August 15, 1999, of which $2.5 million
resulted in refinancing equipment, which was previously financed through an
operating lease. The Company is not in compliance with certain financial
covenants under this loan facility and has secured a waiver from the finance
company of their rights under the agreement to enforce default provisions due to
non compliance with these financial covenants for the third quarter of 1999. The
Company also agreed that should the lender in the Lennox facility decide to
terminate the Lennox facility prior to funding the entire $10.0 million amount
of the facility, the finance company may declare a default under the agreement
and accelerate the maturity date. The amounts outstanding under this facility of
$5.6 million have been classified as current in the financial statements as of
September 30, 1999. The Company may have to request additional waivers from the
finance company due to non compliance with financial covenants in future
quarters. The Company cannot guarantee that the finance company would provide
the Company with additional waivers in which case they could enforce the default
provisions and accelerate the maturity date. Should that be the case, there is
no guarantee that the Company would be able to obtain a replacement facility. A
default under this agreement could trigger cross defaults with several of our
other obligations totaling $31.3 million at September 30, 1999.

    In the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company entered into a stock purchase
agreement with third parties (the "Stock Purchase Commitment"), which allows the
Company to sell at the Company's option (subject to certain conditions
precedent), up to $5.0 million of the Company's Common Stock. The sale price of
the Common Stock is equal to the average of the previous 5 days closing prices
less a 20% discount. The Company sold 250,000 shares of Common Stock realizing
approximately $1.3 million (net commissions) in the fourth quarter of 1998.
These shares were sold on December 18, 1998, and may not be re-sold by the
purchasers for nine months from such date. In the first quarter of 1999, the
Company sold an additional 296,296 shares of Common Stock, realizing
approximately $1.9 million (net of commissions). These shares were sold on
March 15, 1999, and may not be re-sold by the purchasers until July 31, 1999. In
July of 1999, the Company sold an additional 146,000 shares of Common Stock,
realizing approximately $924,000 in proceeds. In addition, the Company received
$576,000 in the form of a short-term loan which is due on November 24, 1999.

    In July 1999, the Company received a bridge loan of $3.0 million from Lucent
("Lucent Bridge Loan"). The Lucent Bridge Loan was repaid upon the funding of
the Credit Facility. In connection therewith, the Company issued to Lucent
warrants to purchase an aggregate of 85,000 shares of Common Stock at an
exercise price of $8.50 per share. The warrants have a term of three years.

    On August 27, 1999, Telscape International, Inc., the registrant, along with
its subsidiaries, Telereunion S.A. de C.V. ("Telereunion"), Telereunion
International, S.A. de C.V., Telereunion, Inc., Telscape USA, Inc.,
MSN Communications, Inc., Interlink Communications, Inc., TSCP
International, Inc., Vextro De Mexico S.A. de C.V., Servicios Corporativos
Vextro, S.A. de C.V., Telscape de Mexico S.A. de C.V., N.S.I. S.A. de C.V., Lan
and Wan S.A. de C.V. and M.S. Noticias y Telecomunicaciones, S.A. de C.V.
(collectively, the "Borrowers") signed a credit agreement ("Credit Agreement")
with Lucent Technologies, Inc. ("Lucent").

    The Credit Agreement provides for up to $40 million in financing. The
registrant borrowed $23.9 million under the Credit Agreement on August 27, 1999,
of which $9.0 million was utilized to repay the $3.0 million Lucent Bridge Loan
and $6.0 million of the Senior Notes and $14.9 million was utilized to pay for
costs directly related to construction of the network debt offering costs.
Subsequent loans under the Credit Agreement are subject to the satisfaction of
certain conditions precedent, one of which has not been satisfied as of the date
of this filing.

    On May 7, 1999, the Company issued $6,850,000 in Senior Notes (the "Senior
Notes") originally maturing in November 2000. E. Scott Crist, CEO of the
Company, is holder of the remaining $850,000 balance of the Senior Notes ("Crist
Loan"). The maturity of the Crist Loan can be extended unilaterally by the
Company through January 4, 2001. In the event that the Crist Loan is not paid by
November 5, 1999, then Mr. Crist will be issued an additional 31,805 warrants.
In the event that the Crist Loan is not paid by May 5, 2000, then Mr. Crist will
be issued an additional 31,805 warrants. As a result, the Crist Loan is
classified as long-term in the financial statements as of September 30, 1999.
The Company repaid $6,000,000 of the Senior Notes on August 27, 1999, upon the
funding of the Lucent facility. The Crist Loan bears interest at 8% from May
through November 6, 1999. Thereafter, the interest rate increases by 1 percent
for each month after November 6, 1999. Pursuant to the terms of the Senior
Notes, the Company issued to the holders of the Senior Notes a total of 256,315
warrants at an exercise price of $6.68. The proceeds from the Senior Notes were
utilized to repay the entire principal amount of the Gordon Brothers Convertible
Debentures plus $1.1 million in exit fees. The Company estimated the fair value
of the warrants by utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the
following assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 53.91%, risk
free interest rate of 5% and expected life of 3 months. The resulting cost of
approximately $398,000 will be amortized as interest expense over three months.

    On June 18, 1999, the Company issued $2,000,000 in Senior Notes (the "$2
Million Senior Notes") maturing December 18, 2000. The $2 Million Senior Notes
are subject to optional prepayment provisions allowing the Company to prepay a
portion or all of the outstanding principal amount without premium or penalty.
The $2 Million Senior Notes bear interest at 8% from June through December 17,
1999. Thereafter, the interest rate increases by 1 percent for each month after
December 17, 1999. The Company also issued to the holders of the $2 Million
Senior Notes a total of 62,501 warrants with an exercise price of $8.00 per
share and a term of three years. In the event that the $2 Million Senior Notes
are not paid by December 18, 1999, then the holders will be issued an additional
62,501 warrants. In the event that the $2 Million Senior Notes are not paid by
June 18, 2000, then the holders will be issued an additional 62,501 warrants in
which case the final maturity date is December 18, 2000. The Company may
unilaterally extend the maturity date of the $2 Million Senior Notes an
additional 60 days beyond December 18, 2000. The Company estimated the fair
value of the warrants by utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model with
the following assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 53.91%,
risk free interest rate of 5% and expected life of 2 months. The resulting cost
of approximately $116,000 will be amortized as interest expense over two months.

    In July 1999, the Company's Revolving Credit Facility expired and the
Company repaid all amounts outstanding at that time.

    As of September 30, 1999 and the date of this filing, the Company has an
outstanding receivable of $1.4 million from a customer of its Mexican Network
Solutions services subsidiaries. This receivable has

                                       21
<PAGE>
been outstanding since December 31, 1998. The Company has been forced to utilize
legal resources to enforce collection of this amount. In the event that the
Company determines that this amount or a portion of the amount is uncollectible
in the future, the Company may be forced to incur a charge in excess of its
current reserve for uncollectibles of $467,000.

    The Company's debt at September 30, 1999 totaled $37.5 million, resulting in
a debt to equity ratio of 119% as compared to $13.1 million and 38%,
respectively, as of December 31, 1998 and $3.2 million and 14%, respectively, as
of December 31, 1997. Fully funding the Lucent Facility will significantly
increase the Company's leverage. In addition, the Company estimates that there
are an additional $10-$15 million in expenditures related to the Mexican Network
and its network expansion which will not be funded through the Lucent Facility.
In the first nine months of 1999, the Company incurred losses and had negative
cash flow from operations. The Company does not expect that cash flow from
operations will be sufficient to meet these capital expenditures and debt
repayments requirements when they are due without additional financing. The
Company intends to finance its growth, principal and interest obligations under
existing debt obligations and additional capital investments required for its
planned facility expansion through vendor financing and the sale of debt or
equity securities (or a combination of both). There can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to obtain additional financing on commercially reasonable
terms, if at all, to fund its losses generated from operations, to fund its
capital expenditures, to fund its debt service obligations as they become due or
to fund strategic investment alternatives. The Company is also exploring various
strategic investment alternatives. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to identify any future joint ventures, acquisitions, mergers or
strategic alliances or that, if identified, the Company will be able to
successfully execute these transactions. If necessary funds are not available,
the Company's business and results of operations and the future expansion of its
business could be materially adversely affected.

    The Company is not in compliance with certain financial covenants under
lease agreements with a finance company that funded $5.6 million in equipment
for us earlier this year. The Company has secured a waiver from the finance
company of their rights under the agreement to enforce default provisions due to
non compliance with these financial covenants for the third quarter of 1999. The
Company also agreed that should the lender in the Lennox facility decide to
terminate the Lennox faciltiy prior to funding the entire $10.0 million amount
of the facility, the finance company may declare a default under the agreement
and accelerate the maturity date. The amounts outstanding under this facility of
$5.6 million have been classified as current in the financial statements as of
September 30, 1999. The Company may have to request additional waivers from the
finance company due to non compliance with financial covenants in future
quarters. The Company cannot guarantee that the finance company would provide
the Company with additional waivers in which case they could enforce the default
provisions and accelerate the maturity date. Should that be the case, there is
no guarantee that the Company would be able to obtain a replacement facility. A
default under this agreement could trigger cross defaults with several of our
other obligations totaling $31.3 million at September 30, 1999.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

    SFAS No. 133, "ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING
ACTIVITIES," requires companies to recognize all derivatives contracts as either
assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and to measure them at fair value. If
certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as a
hedge, the objective of which is to match the timing of gain or loss recognition
on the hedging derivative with the recognition of (i) the changes in the fair
value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk
or (ii) the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction. For a
derivative not designated as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss is
recognized in income in the period of change. SFAS No. 133 is effective for all
fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.

                                       22
<PAGE>
    Historically, the Company has not entered into derivatives contracts either
to hedge existing risks or for speculative purposes. The Company does not expect
adoption of the new standard to have a material effect on its financial
statements.

    SOP 98-5, "REPORTING ON THE COSTS OF START-UP ACTIVITIES," requires all
start-up and organizational costs to be expensed as incurred. It also requires
all remaining historically capitalized amounts of these costs existing at the
date of adoption to be expensed and reported as the cumulative effect of a
change in accounting principles. SOP 98-5 is effective for all fiscal years
beginning after December 31, 1998. The adoption of SOP 98-5 did not have a
material effect on its financial statements.

    SFAS No. 135, "RESCISSION OF FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS BOARD NO. 75
("SFAS NO. 75") AND TECHNICAL CORRECTIONS," rescinds SFAS No. 75 and amends
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board No. 35. SFAS No. 135 also
amends other existing authoritative literature to make various technical
corrections, clarify meanings, or describe applicability under changed
conditions. SFAS No. 135 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years ending after February 15, 1999. The Company believes that the adoption of
SFAS No. 135 will not have a material effect on its financial statements.

                                 UNCERTAINTIES

    The Company continues to face many risks and uncertainties, including
general and specific market economic risks. Exploitation of opportunities
presented by the Mexican market is expected to require substantial capital. To
the extent the Company's Mexican subsidiaries do not have a positive net cash
flow from operations in 1999, it can be expected that the Company would have to
fund any shortfalls from its working capital. In addition, any capital
expenditures needed to expand the operations of the Mexican subsidiaries would
likely be funded out of the working capital of the parent corporation or through
additional financings to the extent the Company can secure these. Any such
fundings would reduce the funds available to finance and expand the Company's
strategy to compete in the international long distance services business. Also,
any economic crises in Mexico could result in the need to fund any cash flow
shortfalls of the Company's Mexican subsidiaries. As of September 30, 1999, the
Company had cash and cash equivalents of $6,040,000 and negative working capital
of $27.0 million. Of this $27.0 million, $12.0 million represents accounts
payable incurred in connection with the construction of the Mexican Network,
$5.1 million represents long term debt reclassified as short term due to a
covenant default and $3.2 million represents other network expenditures
classified as short term obligations. The Company plans to finance the
$12.0 million under the Lucent credit agreement subject to availability as
discussed above.

    As in any recently deregulated market, drastic changes and adjustments of
regulations or changes in government policies may occur from time to time that
will directly affect the Company. The Company's competitive position in the
telecommunications services and long distance markets depends heavily on the
license granted by the Mexican government. Should this permit be revoked for
whatever reason, the Company would be severely impaired or unable to provide
many of its telecommunications services. In addition, the Company relies on
other carriers to complete the transmission of certain telecommunications
services. To the extent that any of these carriers was to no longer do business
with the Company, the Company would either have to find an alternate source or
not be able to provide those services.

    The international long distance market, although large and rapidly growing,
is also very competitive. The Company competes in this market with companies
that have greater experience and substantially greater resources, both financial
and otherwise. In recent months, competition in the industry has seen dramatic
trends which have resulted in decreased prices which have impacted the Company's
revenues, margins and cash flow. In addition, the Company faces certain
additional risks in competing in this market, including changes in U.S. and
foreign government regulations and telecommunications standards, dependence on
strategic partners, tariffs, taxes and other trade barriers, the potential for
nationalization and economic downturns and political instability in foreign
countries. In addition, the Company could be

                                       23
<PAGE>
adversely affected by a reversal in the trend toward deregulation of
telecommunication markets. The Company will be increasingly exposed to these
risks as the Company expands its presence in this market. The Company's growth
in this business is dependent on its ability to expand its capacity through
investments in additional facilities or entering into termination arrangements
with other carriers. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
successful in raising the capital required to fund the additional facilities or
to enter into such arrangements with other carriers, in which case the Company's
operations, the future growth in this business and the ability to compete
effectively against competitors with significantly more resources could be
materially adversely affected.

    The Company will compete in this market with companies that have greater
experience and have substantially greater resources. In addition, the prepaid
phone card industry is subject to extensive U.S. federal and state regulation
including the imposition of various excise taxes and fees, including the
"Universal Service Fund". As with the wholesale international long distance
business, the Company's growth in this business is dependent on its ability to
expand its capacity through investments in additional facilities or entering in
partnering arrangements for outsourcing the telecommunications services related
to calls initiated on the prepaid phone cards it serves. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be successful in raising the capital required to
fund the additional facilities, or in obtaining such partnering arrangements, in
which case the Company's operations, the future growth in this business and the
ability to compete effectively against competitors with significantly more
resources could be materially adversely affected.

    The Company is also pursuing a strategy of growth through selective
acquisitions. However, there can be no assurance that any acquisition will be
completed, that attractive candidates will be identified in the future, that the
Company will be successful in raising the capital to fund such acquisitions, or
that, if completed, any acquisition will be beneficial to the Company.

    In June 1998, Telereunion S.A. de C.V. ("Telereunion S.A."), a subsidiary of
the Company, received a 30-year, facilities-based carrier license from the
Mexican government allowing it to construct and operate a long distance network
in Mexico (the "Concession"). Under the terms of the Concession,
Telereunion S.A. was to have begun operations on its network as of June 3, 1999.
In addition, under the terms of the Concession, Telereunion S.A. is required to
meet certain capitalization thresholds prior to beginning operations. The
Company has petitioned the Comision Federal de Telecomunicaciones (the
"COFETEL"), the equivalent of the Federal Communications Commission in the
United States, to have the Concession amended to extend the start of operations
date and waive or amend the equity and debt to equity requirements. The Company
obtained a waiver from the COFETEL allowing it to delay the beginning of its
network operations by December 3, 1999. The Company cannot confirm that it will
meet this deadline at the time of this filing and may have to obtain a further
waiver on this matter. Although several other concessionaires have received
certain waivers for defaults under their respective concessions, there can be no
assurance that these amendments will be obtained from the COFETEL. If such
amendments are not obtained, the Company will not have the right to operate the
Mexican Network which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
ability to effectuate its business plan and its financial condition.

                             FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK

    The general economic conditions of Mexico are greatly affected by the
fluctuations in exchange rates and inflation. The Company's foreign currency
risk is mitigated in Mexico due to the fact that many of the Company's customers
are multinational firms that transact and pay in U.S. dollars. In addition, most
of the customers that do pay in pesos pay at the spot exchange rate in effect at
the time of payment as opposed to the exchange rate at the time the receivable
is created. The Company's functional currency in Mexico is the U.S. dollar
because the majority of its transactions are in such currency. However, from
time to time the Company transacts in the local currency and thus faces foreign
currency risk with respect to these transactions. U.S.-originated calls will be
paid in U.S. dollars; however, the Company also expects to derive

                                       24
<PAGE>
a certain portion of its revenues from calls originated outside of the U.S. thus
exposing the Company to additional exchange rate risk. In addition, the Company
pays its termination partners in Latin America in their respective local
currencies, exposing the Company to additional exchange rate risk. The Company
may choose to limit its exposure to foreign currency risk through the purchase
of forward foreign exchange contracts or similar hedging strategies. There can
be no assurance that any foreign currency hedging strategy would be successful
in avoiding exchange-related losses.

    The Company does not currently hedge against the risk of foreign exchange
rate fluctuations. See further discussion in Item 3--Quantitative and
Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

                                YEAR 2000 PLANS

    A significant percentage of the software that runs most of the computers in
the United States relies on two-digit, rather than four-digit, date codes to
define the applicable year, resulting in date-sensitive software having the
potential inability to interpret date codes properly, misreading "00" for the
year 1900 instead of the year 2000.

    This could result in a system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions
of operations, including, without limitation, a temporary inability to process
transactions, send invoices or engage in similar normal business activities,
which could have material adverse operational and financial consequences.

STATE OF READINESS

    The Company has initiated a comprehensive program to identify, evaluate and
address issues associated with the ability of its information and
non-information technology systems (collectively, "Systems") to properly
recognize the Year 2000 (the "Year 2000 Readiness Program") in order to avoid
interruption of the operation of these Systems and a material adverse effect on
the Company's business, financial position and results of operation as a result
of the century change. The Company has empowered a "Y2K Committee" to manage the
Year 2000 Readiness Program. The Y2K Committee shall also review the Year 2000
compliance efforts of the Company's key vendors and customers and shall
regularly report to and be controlled by the Board of Directors.

    Each of the information technology software programs that the Company
currently uses has either been certified by its respective vendor as Year 2000
compliant or will be replaced with software that is so certified prior to
year-end. The Company intends to conduct comprehensive tests of all of its
software programs for Year 2000 compliance as part of its Year 2000 Readiness
Program. An integral part of the Company's non-information technology systems,
its telecommunications switches, however, may not currently be Year 2000
compliant. The respective vendors of the Company's switches are in the process
of reviewing their switches for Year 2000 readiness. However, there can be no
assurance that such switches are Year 2000 compliant and that the Company will
not experience switch related problems in Year 2000. In addition to other
reasons, the production of accurate and timely customer invoices depends upon
the generation of accurate and timely underlying data by the Company's switches.
The Company does not believe that its other non-information technology systems
will be affected by the Year 2000, but will not know definitively until the
Company tests and evaluates such equipment. While the Company continues to exert
efforts to test and determine the state of readiness of its systems, the Company
cannot presently confirm that all the required Year 2000 compliance testing and
conversions have been completed nor can it confirm that they shall be completed
before the end of the year.

    The Company's computer systems interface with the computers and technology
of many different domestic and international telecommunications companies on a
daily basis. If one of these telecommunication companies should fail or suffer
an adverse effect from a Year 2000 problem, the Company's customers could
experience impairment of services. The Company considers the Year 2000 readiness
of its international customers and vendors of particular importance given the
general concern that the computer systems abroad may not be as prepared as those
in domestic operations to handle the century change. As

                                       25
<PAGE>
part of its Year 2000 Readiness Program, the Company continues to contact its
key vendors and customers to ascertain whether the systems used by such third
parties are Year 2000 compliant.

COSTS

    The Company has not incurred any material costs to date to reprogram,
replace and test its Systems for Year 2000 compliance. The Company doesn't
expect that any remaining costs will be significant; though such expenditures
may increase materially following testing of non-information technology systems
and evaluation of the Year 2000 compliance status of integral third party
vendors and customers. Any additional costs incurred in connection with the
Company's Year 2000 compliance efforts will be expensed as incurred, unless new
systems are purchased that should be capitalized in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles.

    The Company currently anticipates that its Systems will be Year 2000
compliant before January 1, 2000, though no assurances can be given that the
Company's compliance testing will not detect unanticipated Year 2000 compliance
problems that prevent such Year 2000 compliance. Furthermore, a system failure
by any of the Company's significant customers or vendors could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's operations. Because the Company does not yet
know the Year 2000 compliance status of integral third parties, it is currently
unable to assess the likelihood or the risk to the Company of third party system
failures.

RISKS

    The Company believes that a disruption in the operation of its networks,
billing system and financial and accounting systems and/or an inability to
access interconnections with other telecommunications carriers, are the major
risks associated with the inability of its Systems to process Year 2000 data
correctly. The failure of the Company to correct a material Year 2000 problem
could cause an interruption or failure of certain of the Company's normal
business functions or operations and could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial position and results of operations. In addition,
there could also be a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial position and results of operations if the systems of other companies
on whose services the Company depends, or with whom the Company's Systems
interface, are not Year 2000 compliant.

    Based upon risk assessment work conducted thus far, the Company believes
that the most reasonably likely worst case scenario of the failure by the
Company, or any integral third party, to resolve Year 2000 issues would be an
inability by the Company (i) to provide telecommunications services to the
Company's customers, (ii) to route and deliver telephone calls originating from
or terminating with other telecommunications carriers for an indeterminable
period of time and (iii) to timely and accurately bill customers. Such
worst-case scenario could have a material adverse affect on the Company's
business, results of operations and liquidity. These failures could also result
in a loss of customers due to service interruptions and billing errors,
substantial claims by customers and increased expenses associated with
Year 2000 litigation, stabilization of operations and executing mitigation and
contingency plans. While the Company believes that it is taking appropriate
measures to mitigate these risks, there can be no assurance that such measures
will be successful.

CONTINGENCY PLAN

    At this time, the Company does not have a formal contingency plan. The
Company intends to develop contingency plans to handle Year 2000 system failures
experienced by its Systems and to handle any necessary interactions with the
computers and technology of any integral non-complying third party. The Company
expects that its plan shall continue to be under development throughout the
remainder of this year.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

    The Company is subject to financial market risks, including interest rate
risk and foreign currency exchange risk. During the third quarter of 1999,
insofar as the Company is concerned, there were no material changes in financial
market risks except for the changes in the Mexican peso exchange rate to the
U.S. dollar as described below.

                         FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE RISK

    The Company conducts a significant amount of its operations in countries
outside the United States. The Company's foreign currency exchange risk includes
the following:

    In the past years, the Mexican economy has had periods of exchange rate
instability and peso devaluation. The Company's Network Solutions services and
Customer Relationship Management services business is conducted in Mexico. The
majority of the Company's revenues in the value-added services business are
contracted in dollars or in pesos indexed to the dollar at the time of
settlement. The products and services the Company sells in the value-added
services business line are generally imported from the U.S. or other countries
and are payable in dollars. The Company's remaining operating costs in this
segment are generally paid in pesos. The Company's major outsourcing contracts
with the U.S. Embassy and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs generate revenues that
are collected in pesos and costs that are paid in pesos.

    The Company generally collects its revenues from the Broadband Services and
Products services in U.S. dollars and pays for its costs to provide these
services in U.S. dollars

    In the International Long Distance business segment, the Company sells it
services to customers in the U.S. and thus its revenues are collected in U.S.
dollars. The Company's costs of providing these services are paid to vendors
both in the U.S. and in Mexico or other Latin American countries. A significant
portion of its costs to provide these services are structured under operating
agreements with carriers in Mexico under which the costs historically have been
settled in pesos. The Company has entered into new, additional agreements with
carriers in Mexico that will provide it with additional termination capacity in
Mexico in 1999. These new arrangements provide for settlement in U.S. dollars.
In periods in which the peso devaluates, this results in a cost reduction to the
Company as it generally extends short credit terms to its customers and has
received extended credit terms from its vendors. In periods when the peso
appreciates, this results in a cost increase to the Company. Over the last
several years, the peso has experienced devaluations in the exchange rates to
the U.S. dollar. In the second quarter of 1999, the peso exchange rate
strengthened from over 10 to 1 to an average 9.5 to 1 resulting in an increase
in the Company's cost. Due to limited credit availability, the Company has not
historically hedged its peso costs. In the future as the Company's operations in
Mexico increase, the Company's peso denominated transactions may increase
causing the Company to enter into hedging activities as credit availability
allows.

    In addition, as the Company invests in the Mexican Network and begins to
generate more revenues in Mexico, the Company's foreign currency risk will
increase. Moreover, upon completion, the Lucent Facility will be denominated in
U.S. dollars.
