   This is only a summary and may not contain all of the information that you
should consider before investing in our common stock. You should read the
entire prospectus carefully, including the "Risk Factors" section and our
consolidated financial statements and the notes to those financial statements
included elsewhere in this prospectus.
 
                               Voyager.net, Inc.
 
   Voyager.net is the largest Internet service provider, or ISP, focused on the
Midwestern United States. We serve residential and business customers in
markets within our target region which we believe have been historically under-
served by the larger, national ISPs. Our primary service offerings are dial-up
Internet access to residential subscribers and dedicated and dial-up Internet
access to businesses. We also offer a variety of value-added Internet services
such as providing facilities for hosting customer Web sites on our servers,
known as Web hosting, and housing customer-owned Web servers and related
equipment, known as co-location, as well as domain name registration and e-
commerce. In addition, we offer enhanced communications services such as
broadband Internet access services using digital subscriber lines, or DSL, and
cable modems, and long distance voice services bundled with our Internet access
products. We operate the largest dial-up ISP network in the Midwest in terms of
geographic coverage, with approximately 150 Voyager.net-owned points of
presence in Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, Illinois and Indiana. Points of
presence, or POPs, are facilities located in a particular market which allow
our subscribers to access the Internet through a local telephone call.
 
   The business model that we have developed has resulted in substantial
revenue growth, reduced customer acquisition costs and significant EBITDA while
maintaining high customer satisfaction. We define EBITDA as earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and non-recurring, non-cash
compensation charges. Our subscriber base has increased from approximately
17,000 subscribers as of December 31, 1997 to approximately 188,000 subscribers
as of March 31, 1999, including approximately 5,000 Web hosting customers and
approximately 900 dedicated access subscribers. For the three months ended
March 31, 1999 our annualized quarterly revenues and EBITDA were $34.1 million
and $9.2 million, respectively, representing EBITDA as a percentage of revenues
of 27.0%. We believe that our business model is scalable and can be sustained
at any level. Our business model is based on the following key principles:
 
  .   We focus on the Midwestern United States. Our regional focus on markets
      within the Midwest enables us to conduct highly targeted sales and
      marketing programs, cultivate local brand-name recognition and generate
      a significant number of word-of-mouth referrals. As a result, we
      believe that our customer acquisition costs are significantly less than
      those of our competitors. Our regional operations also provide us with
      a competitive advantage over national ISPs operating in our markets due
      to our ability to provide broader dial-in capability using local
      telephone calls within our region.
 
  .   We deliver superior customer care and service. Over 60% of our employees
      are dedicated to providing customer and technical support from our two
      network
<PAGE>
 
      operating centers. This customer-oriented operating focus has allowed
      us to achieve high customer satisfaction and customer retention rates
      which are significantly greater than industry averages. We have also
      developed a proprietary Web-based customer care and billing system
      which is user-friendly and enables subscribers to sign-up for our
      services immediately. Despite our regional focus, we ranked 10th among
      all ISPs in the U.S. in a recent independent survey in terms of access
      speed and reliability, customer satisfaction and product offerings.
 
  .   We own and manage our network equipment. We believe that we are the only
      large regional or national consumer-focused ISP that owns and operates
      100% of its network equipment and customer care operations. Since we
      own the network equipment at each of our POPs, rather than lease
      services from national carriers, we have much greater control over the
      utilization, efficiency, scalability and quality of our network. This
      enables us to reduce our telecommunication cost per customer, the
      single largest expense for an ISP.
 
  .   We efficiently integrate acquired businesses. Our integration model
      generates significant cost savings and economies of scale within a
      short time after completing an acquisition while offering improved
      performance and a broader range of Internet services to our newly
      acquired customers. We typically realize significant cost savings by
      transferring network traffic from the acquired ISP's customers to our
      regional network and eliminating duplicated network infrastructure. We
      also consolidate many operations of the acquired ISP, such as sales and
      marketing, network operations, customer support, billing and accounting
      and human resources, into our operations. In addition, we use our
      significant purchasing power to re-negotiate more favorable pricing on
      telecommunication access lines, equipment purchases and other vendor
      services.
 
Our Market Opportunity
 
   We believe we are well positioned to capitalize on the significant market
opportunity to provide Internet products and services to our target market:
residential and business customers in the Midwest. For example, International
Data Corporation, or IDC, estimates that:
 
  .   the number of U.S. users accessing the World Wide Web will increase
      from 51.6 million at the end of 1998 to 135.9 million in 2002;
 
  .   the percentage of U.S. households with Internet access will increase
      from 29.5% at the end of 1998 to 64.0% at the end of 2002;
 
  .   revenues from U.S. consumer Internet access services will increase from
      $4.7 billion in 1998 to $10.6 billion in 2002;
 
  .   the percentage of U.S. households with broadband Internet access will
      grow from 1.0% at the end of 1998 to 13.2% at the end of 2002; and
 
  .   revenues from U.S. corporate Internet access services will increase
      from $2.9 billion in 1998 to $10.1 billion in 2002.
 
   The rapid expansion of the Internet and its use has resulted in a highly
fragmented Internet service provider market, with over 4,850 ISPs in the United
States at the end of
 
                                       2
<PAGE>
 
1998. While approximately 180 of these entities are national service providers,
the vast majority of ISPs are small, local operators with fewer than 10,000
customers each.
 
   We believe our target markets in the Midwest have been under-served by both
large national ISPs and by small local ISPs. Many of the national on-line
service providers do not maintain the same level of marketing presence, network
accessibility and quality of service in small markets within the Midwest as
they do in larger markets. In many of our markets, customers of national on-
line service providers are required to access the Internet through a long-
distance phone call, which can be more expensive for subscribers. Currently,
approximately 98% of our dial-up subscribers can access our network through a
local phone call. While smaller ISPs may have a stronger local presence in
certain markets than larger ISPs, smaller ISPs typically do not provide a full
range of value-added services and lack the resources to provide high quality,
reliable Internet access service, customer support and network monitoring 24
hours a day, seven days a week. We anticipate that a significant number of
these local operators, who typically are not profitable and have limited
financial resources to expand their operations, will make attractive
acquisition candidates for us in the future. We believe that our strong
regional presence, high quality Internet products and services, emphasis on
customer care, experienced management team and financial resources position us
to compete effectively in our target markets against both large ISPs and
small ISPs.
 
Our Growth Strategy
 
   Our strategy is to capitalize on the substantial growth of the Internet and
be the dominant Internet service provider in the Midwest. We plan to grow our
business through both internal growth initiatives as well as through strategic
acquisitions, as follows:
 
   .  Maintain our superior customer care and service in order to increase
      customer referrals and customer retention;
 
   .  Continue to invest in our network to provide our subscribers with the most
      reliable, high quality, high speed Internet access services at lower
      costs;
 
   .  Continue our highly focused sales and marketing efforts and use of
      strategic reseller agreements;
 
   .  Offer enhanced communications services such as DSL, cable modems and
      bundled voice and data services at competitive rates; and
 
   .  Continue to acquire and integrate local and regional ISPs to increase

   Voyager Information Networks, Inc., our wholly-owned operating subsidiary,
was incorporated in 1994 in the State of Michigan and began offering Internet
access services to residential and business customers in 1995. We incorporated
in 1998 in the State of Delaware under the name Voyager Holdings, Inc. We
changed our name to Voyager.net, Inc. on April 29, 1999. Our principal
executive office is located at 4660 South Hagadorn Road, Suite 320, East
Lansing, Michigan 48823. Our telephone number is (517) 324-8940. Our primary

                              Recent Developments
 
   In order to provide greater flexibility in pursuing our growth strategy, we
recently amended our revolving senior credit facility with a syndicate of banks
managed by Fleet National Bank to provide for up to $70.0 million of credit.
The credit facility matures on March 31, 2005. The credit facility is to be
used to fund working capital and permitted acquisitions. Our obligations under
the senior bank debt agreements are secured by all of our assets.
 
   In April, we completed the acquisition of approximately 5,900 dial-up
consumer and Web hosting subscribers in the greater Chicago, Illinois area from
StarNet, Inc., a Chicago based ISP.

                                  RISK FACTORS
 
   You should carefully consider the following factors and all other
information contained in this prospectus before purchasing our common stock.
The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. If
any of the events described in the risk factors below actually occur, our
business could be adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our
common stock could decline, and you could lose all or part of the money you
paid to buy our common stock.
 
   This prospectus also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks
and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those
anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of specific factors,
including the risks described below and elsewhere in this prospectus.
 
Our recent substantial growth and planned future growth could strain our
managerial, operational and financial resources
 
   We have expanded our operations rapidly during the past eighteen months and
intend to continue to aggressively pursue existing and potential market
opportunities. Much of this growth is attributable to several recent
acquisitions, including the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of
EXEC-PC, Inc., which was double our size at the time of acquisition. Our rapid
growth has placed, and is expected to continue to place, a strain on our
managerial, operational and financial resources. In order to manage our growth,
we must improve our operational systems, procedures and controls on a timely
basis, retain key employees and maintain our customer relationships. Also, if
the demands placed on our network resources by our growing subscriber base
outpace our growth and operating plans, the quality and reliability of our
service may decline, our relationships with our customers may be harmed and, as
a result, our business may suffer.
 
Our growth strategy and acquisitions may not be successful
 
   Our growth strategy is largely dependent upon acquiring the business and
assets of Internet service providers within the Midwest. We may not be
successful, however, in locating or acquiring additional businesses in the
future. We also may encounter substantial competition from other ISPs and
telecommunications providers which are seeking to consolidate operations within
our region. Some of these competitors may have a larger subscriber base and
greater financial resources. Our inability to continue acquiring these
businesses on favorable terms in the future could have an adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
Our business could be adversely affected if we fail to integrate our
acquisitions successfully
 
   Our continued success as a regional Internet service provider will depend in
large part on our ability to successfully integrate the operations and
management of the Internet service provider businesses that we have acquired
and will acquire in the future. A significant component of our growth is
attributable to our acquisitions, particularly the
 
                                       6
<PAGE>
 
EXEC-PC acquisition. Failure to successfully integrate EXEC-PC and the other
businesses we have acquired or will acquire in the future may result in
significant operating inefficiencies, which may hurt our operating results. In
addition, to integrate these acquired businesses, we may have to expend
substantially more managerial, operating, financial and other resources than we
have planned, which would have an adverse effect on our results of business,
financial condition and results of operations. Any future acquisition could
result in the use of significant amounts of cash, potentially dilutive
issuances of equity securities, or the incurrence of debt or amortization
expenses related to goodwill and other intangible assets, any of which could
adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition. In
addition, acquisitions involve numerous risks, including:
 
   .  difficulties in the assimilation of the operations, technologies, products
      and personnel of the acquired company;
 
   .  the diversion of management's attention from other business concerns;
 
   .  risks of entering markets in which we have no or limited prior experience;
      and
 
   .  the potential loss of key employees of the acquired company.
 
We have a limited operating history at our current scale and may face
difficulties encountered by companies operating in new and rapidly evolving
markets
 
   We were incorporated in June 1994 and began offering Internet access to the
public in December 1995. Only recently have we grown significantly, primarily
as a result of our acquisitions. As a result, we have only operated at this
size for a limited time. When making your investment decision and evaluating
our business and prospects, you should consider the risks and difficulties we
may encounter in the new and rapidly evolving Internet service provider market,
especially given our limited operating history at this size. These risks
include our ability to:
 
   .  expand our subscriber base and increase subscriber revenues;
 
   .  compete favorably in a highly competitive market;
 
   .  attract and retain qualified employees;
 
   .  develop strategic relationships;
 
   .  introduce new products and services; and
 
   .  continue to develop and upgrade our network systems and infrastructure.
 
   We cannot be certain that we will successfully address any of these risks.
 
We have a history of operating losses and expect future losses
 
   We incurred net losses of approximately $1.5 million, $0.8 million and $3.5
million in the fiscal years ended December 31, 1996, 1997 and 1998,
respectively. Although we have grown our revenues substantially in recent
periods, we cannot assure you that we will be able to sustain these growth
rates or avoid future net losses. We expect to continue to make significant
operating and capital expenditures and, as a result, we will need to generate
significant revenues to achieve and maintain profitability. If we do achieve
profitability, we cannot be certain that we will be able to sustain our
profitability in future periods.
 
                                       7
<PAGE>
 
Our annual and quarterly operating results are subject to significant
fluctuations and, as a result, period-to-period comparisons of our results of
operations are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as
indicators of future performance
 
   We have experienced significant fluctuations in our results of operations on
a quarterly and annual basis. We expect to continue to experience significant
fluctuations in our future quarterly and annual results of operations due to a
variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control, including:
 
   .  demand for and market acceptance of our services;
 
   .  customer retention;
 
   .  the timing and magnitude of capital expenditures, including costs relating
      to the expansion of operations and network infrastructure;
 
   .  introductions of new services or enhancements by us and our competitors;
 
   .  increased competition in our markets within the Midwest;
 
   .  growth of Internet use and establishment of Internet operations by
      mainstream enterprises;
 
   .  changes in our and our competitors' pricing policies; and
 
   .  general economic conditions affecting our industry.
 
We face intense competition in our business from other Internet service
providers and telecommunications providers
 
   We face intense competition in conducting our business, and we expect the
competition to intensify as the Internet becomes more popular in the future.
Our competitors include national, regional and local Internet service
providers, telecommunications companies and cable television operators. Some of
these competitors have much larger subscriber bases than ours and in some cases
greater financial, technical and marketing resources. Furthermore, a number of
our competitors offer a broader variety of access and data services and may
have done so for longer periods of time. Every local market within the region
in which we participate or intend to participate is served by multiple Internet
access providers of various type. As a result of increased competition in our
industry, we expect to encounter significant pricing pressure. We cannot be
certain that we will be able to offset the effects of any required price
reductions through an increase in the number of our subscribers, higher
revenues from our enhanced business services, cost reductions or otherwise, or
that we will have the resources to continue to compete successfully. You should
read "Business--Competition" for a more complete discussion on the competitive
factors and competitors in our industry.
 
We face the uncertainty of customer retention
 
   We believe that our long-term success depends largely on our ability to
retain our existing customers while continuing to attract new customers. We
continue to invest significant resources in our network infrastructure and
customer and technical support
 
                                       8
<PAGE>
 
capabilities to provide high levels of customer care. We cannot be certain that
these investments will maintain or improve our customer retention rate. We
believe that intense competition from our competitors, some of which offer free
hours of service or other enticements for new customers, has caused, and may
continue to cause, some of our customers to switch to our competitors'
services. We are also susceptible to losing customers that we acquire through
our acquisitions due to the customers' lack of familiarity with Voyager.net and
the billing and network difficulties which sometimes occur after an
acquisition. In addition, some new subscribers use the Internet only as a
novelty and do not become consistent users of Internet services and, therefore,
may be more likely to discontinue their service. These factors may adversely
affect our subscriber retention rates, which would have an adverse effect on
our business and operating results.
 
We may be unable to obtain the additional capital required to continue to grow
our business
 
   Our ability to grow depends significantly on our ability to expand our
operations through internal growth and by acquiring other Internet service
providers, which require significant capital resources. We anticipate that our
cash requirements for 1999 will include disbursements for some or all of the
following purposes:
 
   .  potential acquisitions;
 
   .  expansion of our network infrastructure;
 
   .  development of enhanced services offerings;
 
   .  interest expense and repayment of senior indebtedness; and
 
   .  working capital and general corporate purposes.
 
   If the proceeds from this offering, after these and other expenditures, are
not sufficient to meet our cash requirements, we will need to seek additional
capital from public or private equity and debt sources to fund our growth and
operating plans and respond to other contingencies, which may include:
 
   .  increases in our growth rate;
 
   .  shortfalls in anticipated revenues or increases in expenses;
 
   .  the development of new products and services; or
 
   .  the expansion of our customer care operations, including the recruitment
      of additional customer care and support personnel.
 
   We cannot be certain that we will be able to raise additional capital in the
future on terms acceptable to us or at all. If alternative sources of financing
are insufficient or unavailable, we may be required to modify our growth and
operating plans in accordance with the extent of available financing.
 
If our third-party suppliers and telecommunications carriers discontinue doing
business with us, we may be unable to find adequate replacements
 
                                       9
<PAGE>
 
   We depend on third-party suppliers of hardware components and
telecommunications carriers to provide equipment and telecommunications
services in a reliable and secure manner. We currently acquire hardware
components used in our network system from a few primary sources, including
high performance routers and servers manufactured by Cisco Systems, Inc. and
modems manufactured by Lucent Technologies, Inc. and 3Com Corporation. We
currently rely on several local telephone companies, such as Ameritech
Corporation, GTE Corporation and MCI WorldCom, to lease to us data
communications capacity via local telecommunications lines and leased long-
distance lines. We also have relationships with competitive local exchange
carriers, or CLECs, such as Brooks Fiber (MCI WorldCom) and Phone Michigan
(McCleod). Our suppliers and telecommunications carriers also sell or lease
products and services to our competitors and may be, or may become, our
competitors. Expansion of our network infrastructure and other competitors'
needs will continue to place a significant demand on our suppliers and
telecommunications carriers. We cannot be certain that our suppliers and
telecommunications carriers will continue to sell or lease their products and
services to us at commercially reasonable prices or at all. Difficulties in
developing alternative sources of supply, if required, could adversely affect
our business, financial condition and operating results. Moreover, failure of
our telecommunications providers to promptly provide the data communications
capacity required by us could cause interruptions in our ability to provide
access services to our customers, which may adversely affect our business,
financial condition and operating results.
 
We may be unable to continue to upgrade our network infrastructure to meet
additional demand and changing subscriber requirements
 
   Our network infrastructure is composed of a complex system of routers,
switches, transmission lines and other hardware used to provide Internet access
and other services. The future success of our business will depend on the
capacity, reliability and security of this network infrastructure. We will have
to continue to upgrade and adapt our network infrastructure as the number of
customers and the amount and type of information they wish to transmit over the
Internet increases. This development of our network infrastructure will require
substantial financial, operational and managerial resources. We cannot be
certain that we will be able to upgrade or adapt our network infrastructure to
meet additional demand or changing customer requirements on a timely basis and
at a commercially reasonable cost, or at all. If we fail to upgrade our network
infrastructure on a timely basis or adapt it to an expanding customer base,
changing customer requirements or evolving industry standards, our business
could be adversely affected.
 
Disruptions of our services due to system failure could result in subscriber
cancellations
 
   A significant portion of our computer equipment, including critical
equipment dedicated to our Internet access services, is presently located at
two network operating centers: one in East Lansing, Michigan and the other in
New Berlin, Wisconsin. The occurrence of a natural disaster, the failure of one
of our systems or the occurrence of other unanticipated problems at our network
operating centers or at one of our points of
 
                                       10
<PAGE>
 
presence could cause interruptions in our services. Extensive or multiple
interruptions in providing customers with Internet access and other services
are a primary reason for customer decisions to cancel the use of Internet
access services. Accordingly, any disruption of our services due to system
failure could have an adverse effect on our business and financial results.
 
We must adapt to technology trends and evolving industry standards to remain
competitive
 
   The Internet market is characterized by rapid changes due to technological
innovation, evolving industry standards, changes in customer needs and frequent
new service and product introductions. New services and products based on new
technologies or new industry standards expose us to risks of equipment
obsolescence. We will need to use leading technologies effectively, continue to
develop our technical expertise and enhance our existing services on a timely
basis to compete successfully in the Internet access industry. We cannot be
certain that we will be successful in these efforts.
 
   We are also at risk due to fundamental changes in the way that Internet
access may be delivered in the future. Currently, Internet access services are
accessed primarily by computers connected by telephone lines. Recently, several
companies, including Voyager.net through our relationship with Millennium
Digital Media Systems, L.L.C., began offering continuous, high speed Internet
access through the use of cable modems. These cable modems have the ability to
transmit data at substantially faster speeds than the modems currently used by
our customers over phone lines. As the Internet becomes accessible by broad
segments of the U.S. population through these cable modems and other consumer
electronic devices, such as Web-TV, or as customer requirements change the
means by which Internet access is provided, we will have to modify our
technologies to accommodate these developments and remain competitive. Our
continued development and implementation of these technological advances may
require substantial time and expense, and we cannot be certain that we will
succeed in adapting our Internet access services business to alternative access
devices and conduits. Our failure to respond in a timely and effective manner
to these and other new and evolving technologies could have a negative impact
on our business, financial condition and operating results.
 
If Internet usage does not continue to grow, we may not be able to continue our
business plan
 
   Widespread use of the Internet is a relatively recent phenomenon. Our future
success depends on continued growth in the use of the Internet and the
continued development of the Internet as a viable commercial medium. We cannot
be certain that Internet usage will continue to grow at or above its historical
rates or that extensive Internet content will continue to be developed or
accessible for free or at nominal cost to users. If Internet use does not
continue to grow or users do not accept our products and services, our
business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely
affected.

State and federal government regulation could require us to change our business
 
   We provide Internet access and other services, in part, using
telecommunications services provided by carriers that are subject to the
jurisdiction of state and federal regulators. Due to the increasing popularity
and use of the Internet, state and federal regulators may adopt additional laws
and regulations relating to content, user privacy, pricing, copyright
infringement and other matters. We cannot predict the impact, if any, that
future regulation or regulatory changes may have on our business. You should
read "Business--Government Regulation" for a more detailed discussion of the
government regulation to which we may be subject.
 
We will be subject to additional government regulation relating to our
competitive local exchange carrier status
 
   We have filed for authorization as a competitive local exchange carrier with
the State of Wisconsin and we may in the future seek CLEC status in other
states within our operating region. To the extent we conduct business as a
CLEC, the telecommunications services that we provide will be subject to
federal, state and local regulation, which may include tariff and price listing
requirements and state certification proceedings. We could incur substantial
legal and administrative expenses if a third party challenged our filed tariffs
or our status as a competitive local exchange carrier. In addition, some state
statutes include provisions requiring CLECs to obtain additional approval in
the event of certain changes in the ownership of the outstanding voting
securities of CLECs. You should read "Business--Government Regulation" for a
more detailed discussion of the regulations to which we will be subject as a
result of our status as a competitive local exchange carrier.
 
We face potential liability for material transmitted through our network or
retrieved through our services
 
   The law relating to the liability of Internet services providers for
information carried on or disseminated through their networks is unsettled. In
addition, the Federal Telecommunications Act of 1996 imposes fines on any
entity that knowingly permits any telecommunications facility under its control
to be used to make obscene or indecent material available to minors via an
interactive computer service. We cannot predict whether any claim under the
federal statute, similar state statutes or common law will be asserted against
us, or if asserted, whether it will be successful. As the law in this area
develops, we may be required to expend substantial resources or discontinue
certain services to reduce our exposure to the potential imposition of
liability. Any costs that we incur as a result of contesting any asserted
claims or the consequent imposition of liability could adversely affect our
business and operating results.
 
   In addition, because our users may download materials and subsequently
distribute them to others, persons may potentially make claims against us for
defamation, negligence, copyright or trademark infringement, personal injury or
other claims based on the nature, content, publication and distribution of such
materials. We also could be exposed to liability with respect to the offering
of third-party content that may be accessible through our services. It is also
possible that if any third-party content provided
 
                                       12
<PAGE>
 
through our services contains errors, third parties who access this material
could make claims against us for losses incurred in reliance on this
information. We also offer e-mail services, which expose us to other potential
risks, such as liabilities or claims resulting from unsolicited e-mail, lost or
misdirected messages, illegal or fraudulent use of e-mail or interruptions or
delays in e-mail service. These claims, whether with or without merit, likely
would divert management's time and attention, may result in negative publicity
and could result in significant costs to investigate and defend.
 
We are subject to risks associated with year 2000 compliance
 
   Many currently installed computer systems and software products are coded to
accept only two digit entries in the date code field. These date code fields
will need to accept four digit entries to distinguish 21st century dates from
20th century dates. Confusion of dates may bring about system failures or
miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among other
things, a temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices or engage
in similar business activities. As a result, many companies' software and
computer systems need to be upgraded or replaced in order to comply with such
"year 2000" requirements.
 
   We rely on third party telecommunications and information systems equipment
and software that may not be year 2000 compliant to provide our services. We
are in the early stages of conducting an audit of our own systems and of our
third-party suppliers as to the year 2000 compliance of their systems. Based
upon the results of this assessment, we have developed and implemented a
remediation plan with respect to third-party software, computer technology and
services that may fail to be year 2000 compliant. At this time, the expenses
associated with this assessment and remediation plan cannot be determined. The
failure of our internal computer systems or of third-party equipment or
software to operate without year 2000 complications could result in the
interruption or failure of our services, and could require us to incur
significant unanticipated expenses to remedy any problems and could expose us
to claims for losses incurred by our users due to year 2000 complications. The
defense of any claims, whether with or without merit, could require us to incur
substantial costs and would divert management's time and attention, which could
have an adverse effect on our business and operating results. In addition, we
are subject to external forces that might generally affect industry and
commerce, such as utility company year 2000 compliance failures and related
service interruptions. You should read "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Year 2000 Compliance."
 
Our success is dependent upon our senior management team
 
   Our success will depend in large part on the continued availability of our
senior management team. The loss of the services of any of the members of our
senior management team could have an adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations. We maintain a key man life insurance
policy on each of our executive officers, however the proceeds from insurance
policies are not an adequate replacement for these individuals' services.
Although we have entered into employment agreements and noncompetition
agreements with each of our executive officers, we cannot
 
                                       13
<PAGE>
 
assure you that these agreements will be enforceable or that we will enjoy the
continued service of our senior management. You should read "Management--
Employment Agreements" for a more detailed description of our arrangements with
senior management.
 
There has been no prior public market for our common stock
 
   Before this offering, there has been no public market for our common stock.
Although our common stock will be quoted on the Nasdaq National Market, we
cannot offer any assurance that an active trading market for these shares will
develop or how liquid that market might become following this offering, or that
purchasers in this offering will be able to resell their shares at prices equal
to or greater than the initial public offering price. The initial public
offering price will be determined through negotiations between us and the
underwriters and may not be indicative of the market price for these shares
following this offering. You should read "Underwriting" for a discussion of the
factors to be considered in determining the initial public offering price.
 
The market price of our shares of common stock may experience extreme price and
volume fluctuations
 
   The stock market has, from time to time, experienced extreme price and
volume fluctuations. Many factors may adversely affect the market price for our
common stock following this offering, including:
 
   .  the demand for our common stock;
 
   .  the number of market makers for our common stock;
 
   .  investor perception of the Internet, the Internet industry generally and
      the ISP industry in particular;
 
   .  general technology or economic trends;
 
   .  revenues and operating results failing to meet or surpass the expectations
      of securities analysts or investors in any quarter; and
 
   .  changes in securities analysts' estimates or general market conditions.
 
   In the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price
of their stock have been the object of securities class action litigation. If
we become the object of securities class action litigation, it could result in
substantial costs and a diversion of our management's attention and resources
and have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
 
Our existing stockholders will control all matters requiring a stockholder vote
and, as a result, could prevent or delay a change in control
 
   Upon the closing of this offering, our existing directors, officers and
stockholders will beneficially own approximately  % of our outstanding common
stock. In particular, Media/Communications Partners II Limited Partnership and
Media/Communications Investors Limited Partnership will retain approximately  %
of our outstanding stock in the aggregate. If all of these stockholders were to
vote their shares of common stock
 
                                       14
<PAGE>
 
together as a group, these stockholders would have the ability to exert
significant influence over our board of directors and its policies. Control by
existing stockholders could have the effect of delaying, deferring or
preventing a change in control because these stockholders will be in a position
to control the outcome of all stockholder votes, including votes concerning
director elections, by-law amendments and possible mergers, corporate control
contests and other significant corporate transactions. See "Principal and
Selling Stockholders."
 
Provisions of Delaware law and of our charter and by-laws may make a takeover
more difficult
 
   Provisions in our certificate of incorporation and by-laws, as amended and
restated, and in the Delaware corporate law may make it difficult and expensive
for a third party to pursue a tender offer, change in control or takeover
attempt which is opposed by our management. Public stockholders who might
desire to participate in such a transaction may not have an opportunity to do
so, and the ability of public stockholders to change our management could be
substantially impeded by these anti-takeover provisions. We also have a
staggered board of directors that has the right under our charter documents to
issue preferred stock without further stockholder approval, which could
adversely affect the holders of our common stock and the potential for a tender
offer or change in control.
 
The estimated initial public offering price is significantly higher than the
book value of our common stock and you will experience immediate and
substantial dilution in the value of your investment
 
   As a purchaser of our common stock in this offering, you will experience
immediate and substantial dilution of $  per share in the net tangible book
value of the common stock from the initial public offering price. To the extent
outstanding options to purchase common stock are exercised, you will experience
further dilution. See "Dilution."
 
The future sale of shares of our common stock could adversely affect the market
price of our common stock
 
   Substantial sales of our common stock in the public market following this
offering, or the perception by the market that such sales could occur, could
lower the market price of our common stock or make it difficult for us to raise
additional equity capital in the future. The shares of common stock which are
being sold in this offering will generally be freely tradeable without
restriction, and:
 
   .  the remaining    shares of common stock outstanding will be "restricted
      securities" as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, and may be
      sold in the future without registration under the Securities Act
      subject to compliance with the provisions of Rule 144 or any other
      applicable exemption under the Securities Act; and
 
   .  existing stockholders have registration rights requiring us to register
      up to    shares of common stock for sale under the Securities Act.
 
                                       15

   Upon expiration of lock-up agreements entered into with the underwriters,
180 days after the date of this prospectus     shares of common stock, and
shares of common stock issuable as a result of the exercise of vested options,
will be eligible for resale in accordance with the provisions of the Securities
Act.
 
   You should read "Shares Eligible for Future Sale" for a more detailed
description of these risks.
 
Covenants in our debt agreements may restrict our business
 
   Our existing senior bank debt agreements contain a number of significant
covenants. These covenants limit our ability to, among other things, borrow
additional money, create liens, make some types of investments, issue
additional equity securities, declare and pay dividends and sell our assets.
They also require us to meet certain financial tests. Our ability to meet those
financial tests may be affected by events beyond our control. If we are unable
to meet our debt service obligations or comply with these covenants, we will be
in default under these agreements. A default, if not waived, could result in
acceleration of our repayment obligations, which would have a significantly
adverse effect on our financial condition. You should read "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--
Liquidity and Capital Resources" for a more detailed description of our debt
agreements.
 
We do not intend to pay dividends
 
   We have never declared nor paid any cash dividends on shares of our common
stock. We currently intend to retain our earnings for future growth and,
therefore, do not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. In
addition, under the terms of our senior bank debt agreements, we are prohibited
from paying any dividends to our stockholders. See "Dividend Policy."

                                USE OF PROCEEDS
 
   We estimate that our net proceeds from the sale of our common stock will be
approximately $   million, at an assumed initial offering price of $   per
share and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions
and offering expenses payable by us in connection with this offering. If the
underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised in full, we estimate that our
net proceeds will be approximately $  million. We expect to use all of these
estimated net proceeds as follows:
 
   .  to repay approximately $   million of senior bank debt incurred in
      connection with our consummated acquisitions, under our senior credit
      facility with a number of lending institutions, including accrued and
      unpaid interest, which senior bank debt bears interest at a variable
      rate, currently set at 8.0% per annum, and matures on March 31, 2005;
 
   .  to redeem all 82,748 outstanding shares of series A preferred stock in the
      aggregate face amount of approximately $8.3 million, plus cumulative
      undeclared dividends;
 
   .  to repay approximately $   million of subordinated notes owed to Horizon
      Cable I Limited Partnership, including accrued and unpaid interest,
      which notes bear interest at a rate of 8.0% compounded annually; and
 
   .  for general corporate purposes, including potential acquisitions and
      capital expenditures.
 
   Except for repayment of the outstanding bank debt and subordinated notes and
the redemption of the shares of outstanding series A preferred stock, the net
proceeds will be invested in government securities and other short-term,
government-grade investment securities until allocated for specific use.
 
                                DIVIDEND POLICY
 
   We have never declared nor paid any dividends on our common stock. Under the
terms of our senior bank debt agreements, we are prohibited from paying any
dividends to our stockholders other than dividends payable in shares of common
stock to our stockholders. In addition, we currently intend to retain our
earnings for future growth and, therefore, do not anticipate paying cash
dividends in the foreseeable future.

   The following table sets forth our capitalization as of March 31, 1999 (a)
on an actual basis and (b) on an as adjusted basis to give effect to our
receipt of the estimated net proceeds from the sale of the    shares of common
stock offered by Voyager.net at an assumed initial public offering price of $
per share, after deduction of underwriting discounts and estimated expenses
payable in connection with the offering, and the use of the net proceeds as
described in "Use of Proceeds." You should read this table in conjunction with
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" and our financial statements and the notes to those statements
included elsewhere in this prospectus.
 
   The table below excludes:    shares of common stock issuable upon exercise
of outstanding stock options at a weighted average exercise price of $  per

                                    DILUTION
 
   As of March 31, 1999, we had a pro forma net tangible book value of
($34,576,995) or ($1.87) per share. Pro forma net tangible book value per share
is equal to our total tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the
number of shares of our outstanding common stock. Without taking into account
any other changes in net tangible book value after March 31, 1999, other than
to give effect to our receipt of the estimated net proceeds from the sale of
the    shares of common stock offered hereby at an assumed initial public
offering price of $   per share, our pro forma net tangible book value as of
March 31, 1999 would have been $  , or $   per share. This represents an
immediate increase in pro forma net tangible book value of $   per share to our
existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of $   per share to new
investors. If the initial public offering price is higher or lower than $   per
share, the dilution to new stockholders will be lower or higher, respectively.
The following table illustrates this per share dilution:

   Assuming the underwriters exercise their right to purchase    additional

                 SELECTED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL AND OTHER DATA
                (In thousands, except per share and other data)
 
   The following tables sets forth selected consolidated financial information
and other data for Voyager.net. The selected consolidated results of operations
and the selected historical consolidated balance sheet data for the years ended
December 31, 1995, 1996, 1997, and 1998 have been derived from the audited
consolidated financial statements of Voyager.net. The selected consolidated
financial information and other data as of March 31, 1999 and for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 and 1999 are unaudited; however, in the opinion of
our management the unaudited data includes all adjustments (consisting of
normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the
information. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31,
1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year
ending December 31, 1999 or any other future period. The pro forma information
and other data for the year ended December 31, 1998 is unaudited. The pro forma
information and other data is not necessarily indicative of the results of
operations that would actually have occurred if the acquired business
transactions included therein had been consummated as of January 1, 1998.
 
   You should read the following selected historical consolidated financial
statements and other data in conjunction with our consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
 
   The selected consolidated financial data as of and for the year ended
December 31, 1994 are not presented since we had just begun operations. As of
December 31, 1994, total assets were approximately $140,000 and total revenue
for the year then ended was approximately $20,000.

          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Read the following discussion together with the financial statements and
related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. The results discussed
below are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected in any
future periods. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based on
current expectations and which involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results
and the timing of certain events may differ significantly from those projected
in such forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those
set forth herein, in the section entitled "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this
prospectus.
 
General
 
   We are the largest Internet service provider focused on the Midwestern
United States. We incorporated in June 1994 and began offering Internet access
to residential and business customers in Michigan in 1995. From 1995 to 1997,
we focused on building our network infrastructure in Michigan as well as
developing the core competencies to grow our business. We funded the initial
build-out of our network and development of our operations primarily through an
aggregate $2.5 million in debt and equity capital from Horizon Cable I Limited
Partnership, Media/Communications Partners II Limited Partnership and
Media/Communications Investors Limited Partnership. In 1998, we began pursuing
an acquisition program focused on acquiring regional and local ISPs throughout
the Midwest. This program allowed us to expand into new markets as well as to
increase the utilization of Voyager.net-owned points of presence network
infrastructure and operations. During 1998, we acquired seven ISPs in the
Midwest with approximately 100,000 subscribers, including the acquisition of
EXEC-PC, Inc., a consumer-based ISP located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin with 80,000
subscribers. We funded these acquisitions primarily with $4.8 million of equity
capital raised from private equity investors and through a $40.0 million
revolving credit facility with a group of banks led by Fleet National Bank. The
credit facility was increased to $70.0 million on April 13, 1999. Thus far in
1999, we have acquired an additional four ISPs with 34,400 subscribers in the
aggregate. We currently operate the largest ISP network in the Midwest in terms
of geographic coverage, with approximately 150 Voyager.net-owned points of
presence in Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, Illinois and Indiana. Through a
combination of internal growth and acquisitions, we have increased our
subscriber base from approximately 17,000 subscribers at the end of December
1997 to approximately 188,000 subscribers as of March 31, 1999, including
approximately 5,000 Web hosting subscribers and approximately 900 dedicated
access subscribers.
 
Revenues and Expenses
 
   Our revenues are generally composed of:
 
   .  Dial-up Internet access services;
 
   .  Dedicated Internet access services; and
 
   .  Value-added Web and telecommunications services.
 
                                       22
<PAGE>
 
   Dial-up Internet access service revenues consist of monthly, quarterly,
semi-annual and annual prepaid subscriptions for Internet access services. We
offer dial-up Internet access to residential and small- and medium-sized
business customers. Advance collections relating to prepaid subscriptions for
future access services are recorded as deferred revenue when collected and
revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the prepaid subscription.
Subscribers may cancel their subscriptions at any time, in which case we charge
the subscribers for their subscription to the date of cancellation and refund
any remaining amounts prepaid. Cash received from prepaid subscribers is
classified as deferred revenue when received, and no cash reserves are
maintained for potential refund obligations. A majority of our residential
subscribers pay their monthly fee automatically by a pre-authorized monthly
charge to their credit card.
 
   Dedicated Internet access services revenues are offered on a monthly,
yearly, three-year and five-year subscription basis. We offer dedicated
Internet access services using leased dedicated telecommunication lines
primarily to business customers, with DSL and cable modem access offered to
both residential and business customers. The revenue recognition policies and
customer cancellation practices described for the dial-up Internet access
services also apply to the dedicated access services.
 
   We also provide a wide range of value-added Web services such as Web
hosting, domain name registration, customer Web server co-location and e-
commerce. We derive recurring revenue from Web site hosting primarily on a
fixed-rate monthly basis. We charge our co-location customers monthly fees
based on the physical use of our facilities. Other services such as domain name
registration, e-commerce services and other consulting services are typically
offered at a fixed-rate basis or time plus materials basis. We also provide
long distance voice services offered through a reseller relationship with IXC
Communications Services, Inc. Revenue from long-distance service is recognized
as used by the customer. Payments from customers for prepaid calling card
services are recorded as deferred revenue when collected and revenue is
recognized as the prepaid subscription is used.
 
   During 1998, the average monthly rate at which we experienced customer
cancellations and non-renewals of subscriptions, or churn rate, was 2.6%. We
calculate our churn rate by dividing (1) the number of customer cancellations
and non-renewals during the month (excluding cancellations made by new
customers during the first 30 days of service) by (2) the average number of
subscribers during the month. We devote substantial resources to maintain high
quality customer care, and we are continually upgrading and expanding our
network infrastructure to ensure high levels of customer satisfaction. We
believe that our emphasis and focus on customer care has resulted in one of the
lowest churn rates in the industry, and we expect to maintain or improve this
rate by ensuring that customer support and care are always high priorities for
all of our employees.
 
   Our operating costs and expenses include the following:
 
   .  Internet access service cost;
 
   .  Sales and marketing expenses;
 
   .  General and administrative expenses; and
 
   .  Depreciation and amortization expenses.
 
                                       23
<PAGE>
 
   Internet access service costs includes costs for providing local telephone
lines into each Voyager.net-owned POP, costs associated with leased lines
connecting each POP to our two network operation centers, costs for our
connections from our network operating centers to the Internet, billing and bad
debt expense and other technical related expenses. Telecommunication costs
include the costs of data circuits, dial-in line expenses and connectivity
fees. Billing costs include credit card processing fees, banking fees and
customer billing expenses. Internet access service costs for Web hosting
consists primarily of telecommunication costs. Internet access service costs
for other non-recurring value added services consists of licensing fees and
cost of labor and overhead performing the service. Internet access service
costs for reselling of long distance services consists of third-party wholesale
costs of the products resold. Other technical related expenses primarily
consist of maintenance contracts and domain name registration costs. As we
execute our acquisition strategy in the future, we expect increased Internet
access service costs on an absolute dollar basis, but lower Internet access
service costs on a percentage basis as a result of continued revenue growth,
reduction of redundant costs, consolidation of operations and re-negotiation of
pricing on telecommunication, equipment and other vendor contracts.
 
   Sales and marketing costs consist of salaries and commissions for sales,
marketing and business support personnel, advertising and promotion expenses
and commissions for value added resellers, or VARs. Since 1998, we have
expanded our marketing and sales efforts as we have expanded our geographic
coverage, increased our subscriber base, acquired additional businesses and
introduced new products and services. We expect increases in the absolute
spending for sales and marketing, but we expect these costs to be more than
offset by the increase in customer revenues that will be achieved. We do not
defer any costs associated with obtaining or retaining customers or entering
new markets.
 
   General and administrative, or G&A, expenses consist of compensation costs
for business development, finance, accounting and billing, customer and
technical support and administration personnel and occupancy costs. Since
January 1998, we have hired several members of our senior management. We are
currently seeking to hire additional personnel to support our growth. We expect
cost increases in G&A on an absolute dollar basis as we continue to execute our
acquisition strategy and expand our operations, but we expect these costs to be
more than offset by the increase in customer revenues that will be achieved. On
a monthly per customer basis and as a percentage of revenue, we expect our G&A
expenses to decrease over time.
 
   Depreciation expense is recognized over the estimated useful lives of our
property and equipment ranging from three to ten years on a straight-line
basis. Capital investment typically consists of networking equipment such as
routers, servers, and various internal network components, telecommunications
gear such as access modems, computer equipment and general office equipment
with a useful life in excess of one year. Equipment acquired under a capital
lease is depreciated over the related lease term or the estimated productive
useful life, depending on the criteria met in determining their qualification
as a capital lease. Amortization expense generally consists of the costs
associated with acquiring our customer base, which is amortized using the
straight-line
 
                                       24
<PAGE>
 
method over three years. Additional amortization expenses consist of bank debt
financing fees and miscellaneous costs associated with the development of other
assets such as our proprietary customer care and billing system.
 
   We have historically not paid any income taxes due to our net losses. As of
December 31, 1998, we had deferred tax assets for federal income tax purposes
of approximately $1.5 million, which are primarily related to net operating
loss carryforwards. These deferred tax assets have been offset by recognition
of corresponding valuation allowances. These deferred tax assets expire in the
years 2013 and 2018.
 
   We have historically experienced negative cash flow from operations and have
incurred net losses as a result of our efforts to build our network
infrastructure, develop our management team, provide quality customer care
programs and acquisition-related spending. We had net losses of $1.5 million,
$0.8 million and $3.5 million for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1997 and
1998, respectively, and net income of $64,000 and net loss of $2.0 million for
the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively. At March 31,
1999, we had an accumulated deficit of $8.7 million.
 
   We intend to capitalize on our successful business model to expand our
geographic operations and increase our subscriber base through continued
internal growth as well as through strategic acquisitions. As a result, we
expect that our Internet access service costs, sales and marketing, G&A, and
depreciation and amortization costs will increase on an absolute dollar basis.
However, we expect continued growth in our revenues to result in increased
operating cash flow and EBITDA, both in terms of absolute results and as a
percentage of revenues. Our revenues and EBITDA were $8.5 million and $2.3
million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 1999, representing
an EBITDA margin of 27.0%, compared to revenues and EBITDA of $1.1 million and
$229,000, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 1998, representing
an EBITDA margin of 20.2%. Our ability to generate positive cash flow from
operations and achieve profitability is dependent upon our ability to continue
to grow our revenue base and achieve operating efficiencies.
 
                                       25

Acquisitions
 
   Our acquisition strategy is designed to leverage our existing network and
administrative operations to allow us to enter new markets within the Midwest,
as well as to expand our presence in existing markets, and to realize economies
of scale. Since July 1, 1998 we have acquired eleven ISPs in the Midwest
totaling approximately 135,000 subscribers. Below is a summary of our completed
acquisitions:

-----------------------
(1)At the respective date of acquisition.
 
   Our acquisition activity has primarily been financed with $4.8 million of
equity capital from private equity investors and loans from a $40.0 million
revolving credit facility with a group of banks managed by Fleet National Bank.
We increased the overall capacity of our credit facility to $70.0 million on
April 13, 1999.
 
   Voyager.net is currently in various levels of acquisition discussions with a
number of ISPs in targeted markets in the Midwest. However, we cannot assure
you that we will successfully complete any of the acquisitions we are currently
evaluating.

Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 Compared to March 31, 1998
 
   Revenues. Total consolidated revenues increased from $1.1 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 to $8.5 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1999, representing an increase of 650.6%. The revenue growth was
primarily driven by the increase in our customer base from approximately 19,000
at March 31, 1998 to approximately 188,000 at March 31, 1999. The growth in
customers was primarily the result of our acquisitions. We also experienced
strong internal growth from our effort to provide high quality customer and
technical service and support, geographic expansion in our coverage areas and
low churn rates. In addition, we introduced several new service offerings, such
as DSL and long distance telephone service, which generated additional revenue
from our customer base.
 
   Internet access service costs. Internet access service costs increased from
$370,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 to $2.8 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1999. Internet access service costs as a percent
of revenue remained relatively constant at approximately 33.0% due to improved
telecommunication contracts and economies of scale. The increase in absolute
spending for the three months ended March 31, 1999 was driven by a significant
increase in customers and their associated network expenses and an increase in
billing costs. We expect to improve our gross margins in the future as we more
fully integrate our acquired companies and leverage our existing network and
back office infrastructure over a larger customer base.

   Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expense increased from $181,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 1998 to $1.0 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1999. The increase in spending was attributable to the growth
in our customer base and support functions and the expansion of our geographic
coverage area. As a percentage of revenue, sales and marketing costs decreased
from 15.9% for the three months ended March 31, 1998 to 11.4% for the three
months ended March 31, 1999. The improvement in sales and marketing expenses as
a percentage of revenues reflects lower customer acquisition costs from our
effective customer care and referral programs spread over a larger revenue
base.
 
   General and administrative. General and administrative expenses increased
from $355,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 to $2.5 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1999. The absolute increase in spending was due to
the growth of our business and the administrative functions necessary to
support our growth. As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative
costs decreased from 31.3% for the three months ended March 31, 1998 to 28.9%
for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The improvement on a percentage
basis represents leveraging of resources across an increased customer base.
 
   Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense
increased from $126,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 to $3.5
million for the three months ended March 31, 1999. This increase was a result
of the amortization of intangible assets related to acquiring our customer base
since March 31, 1998, as well as increased capital spending for expanded
network operations and infrastructure.
 
   Other income (expense), net. Other expenses, net increased from $39,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 1998 to $0.8 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1999. This increase is the result of the higher average balance
on our $40.0 million line-of-credit which was used to fund acquisitions
completed during 1998.
 
   Net income (loss). As a result of the above, we reported net income of
$64,000, or less than $0.01 per share applicable to common stockholders, for
the three months ended March 31, 1998 as compared to net loss of $2.0 million,
or $0.12 per share applicable to common stockholders, for the three months
ended March 31, 1999.
 
   EBITDA. EBITDA increased from $229,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1998 to $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999. As a percentage
of revenues, EBITDA increased from 20.2% for the three months ended March 31,
1998 to 27.0% for the three months ended March 31, 1999.
 
Year Ended December 31, 1998 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1997
 
   Revenues. Total consolidated revenues increased from $3.5 million for the
year ended December 31, 1997 to $10.7 million for the year ended December 31,
1998, representing an increase of 210.4%. The revenue growth was primarily
driven by the increase in our customer base from approximately 17,000 at
December 31, 1997 to approximately 142,000 at December 31, 1998. The growth in
customers was primarily a result of the seven acquisitions during 1998, which
added approximately 100,000 subscribers to our customer base.

   Internet access service costs. Internet access service costs increased from
$1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 1997 to $3.6 million for the year
ended December 31, 1998. Internet access service costs as a percent of revenue
decreased from 38.2% for the year ended December 31, 1997 to 33.6% for the year
ended December 31, 1998 due to improved telecommunication contracts and
economies of scale. The increase in absolute spending for the year ended
December 31, 1998 was driven by a significant increase in customers and their
associated network expenses and an increase in billing costs.
 
   Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expense increased from $1.0 million
for the year ended December 31, 1997 to $2.0 million for the year ended
December 31, 1998. The increase in absolute spending was a result of the rapid
growth of our operations and the acquisitions completed during 1998. As a
percentage of revenue, sales and marketing costs decreased from 30.0% for the
year ended December 31, 1997 to 18.5% for the year ended December 31, 1998. The
improvement of sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenues
reflects the efficiencies of our marketing programs over a larger customer
base.
 
   General and administrative. General and administrative expenses increased
from $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1997 to $3.4 million for the
year ended December 31, 1998. The absolute increase in spending was due to the
increase in support functions and basic infrastructure necessary to support the
expansion of our business and the acquisition activity. As a percentage of
revenue, general and administrative expenses decreased from 42.3% for the year
ended December 31, 1997 to 31.8% for the year ended December 31, 1998. The
improvement on a percentage basis represents efficiencies achieved through the
integration of acquired businesses and leveraging resources across an increased
customer base.
 
   Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense
increased from $394,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997 to $3.9 million
for the year ended December 31, 1998. This increase was a result of the
amortization of intangible assets related to acquiring our customer base since
December 31, 1997, as well as increased capital spending for expanded network
operations and infrastructure.
 
   Non-recurring expenses. We incurred a charge of $408,000 for the year ended
December 31, 1998 related to the issuance of common stock and stock options
during the year ended December 31, 1998. The amount of this charge was based on
the issuance and grant of common stock and options at purchase and exercise
prices below fair market value. We believe these charges to be non-recurring in
nature.
 
   Other income (expense), net. Other expenses, net increased from $62,000 for
the year ended December 31, 1997 to $0.9 million for the year ended December
31, 1998. This increase is the result of the higher average balance on our $40
million line-of-credit which was used to fund acquisitions completed during
1998.
 
   Net income (loss). As a result of the above, we reported a net loss of $0.6
million, or $0.12 per share applicable to common stockholders, for the year
ended December 31, 1997 as compared to a net loss of $3.5 million, or $0.27 per
share applicable to common stockholders, for the year ended December 31, 1998.

   Revenues. Total consolidated revenues increased from $1.7 million for the
year ended December 31, 1996 to $3.5 million for the year ended December 31,
1997, representing an increase of 102.5%. The revenue growth was primarily
driven by the increase in our customer base from approximately 10,000 at
December 31, 1996 to approximately 17,000 at December 31, 1997. The growth in
customers was the result of the development of our core Internet access service
business.
 
   Internet access service costs. Internet access service costs increased from
$1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 1996 to $1.3 million for the year
ended December 31, 1997. Internet access service costs as a percent of revenue
decreased from 58.7% for the year ended December 31, 1996 to 38.2% for the year
ended December 31, 1997 due to economies of scale in the increased size of our
operations. The increase in absolute spending for the year ended December 31,
1997 was driven by a significant increase in customers and their associated
network expenses and an increase in billing costs due to rapid customer growth.
 
   Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expense increased from $0.6 million
for the year ended December 31, 1996 to $1.0 million for the year ended
December 31, 1997. The increase in sales and marketing on an absolute basis was
the result of the subscriber growth during 1997. As a percentage of revenue,
sales and marketing costs decreased from 37.4% for the year ended December 31,
1996 to 30.0% for the year ended December 31, 1997.
 
   General and administrative. General and administrative expenses increased
from $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 1996 to $1.5 million for the

   Our quarterly operating results have fluctuated and will continue to
fluctuate from period-to-period depending upon certain factors. Factors that
may contribute to the variability of operating results include: the growth
rate of new customers, retention of existing customers, the timing of the
expansion of our operations, the payment of interest related to the fully
utilized revolving credit facility, the introduction of new and enhanced
services by us, competitive pricing pressures, changes in our ability to
negotiate favorable rates for the use of its network infrastructure, customer
demand for Internet services and increased costs for retaining employees.
 
   In view of the significant growth of our operations, management believes
that period-to-period comparisons of its financial results should not be
relied upon as an indication of future performance and that we may experience
in the future significant period-to-period fluctuations in operating results.
We expect to focus in the near term on building and increasing our revenue
base, which will require additional expenses for personnel, marketing, and
network infrastructure that may adversely impact short term operating results.
As a result, there can be no assurance that we will be profitable on a
quarterly basis in the future and management believes that it will incur
losses in at least the near term.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
   Our principal capital and liquidity needs historically have related to
funding the cash portion of our acquisitions, our sales and marketing
activities, the development and expansion of our network infrastructure, the
establishment of our customer service and support operations and general
working capital needs. The capital needs of our company were initially met in
1996 and 1997 by loan advances from Horizon Cable I Limited Partnership and
private placements of our securities to our principal stockholders, as further
described below. As we grew our operations during 1998, we received capital
from other sources, including cash provided by operating activities, proceeds
from the issuance of debt and notes payable and through private placements of
our securities, as further described below.
 
   Net cash provided by operating activities was $2.7 million in 1998,
compared to net cash used in operating activities of $398,000 in 1997. The
primary sources of cash from operating activities in 1998 were increases in
deferred revenue of $1.2 million, increases in accounts payable and accrued
expenses of $1.3 million, and $3.9 million in depreciation and amortization.
These sources were partially offset by a $3.5 million net loss and increased
accounts receivable of $0.5 million.
 
   Net cash used in investing activities was $34.3 million in 1998, compared
to net cash used in investing activities of $0.6 million in 1997. Cash used in
investing activities in 1998 consisted of $32.9 million to acquire seven ISP
businesses and $1.5 million for the purchase of capital equipment. Cash used
in investing activities in 1997 primarily relates to the purchase of capital
equipment.
 
   Net cash provided by financing activities was $33.5 million in 1998,
compared to cash provided in financing activities of $1.5 million in 1997. The
primary sources of cash from financing activities in 1998 were net borrowings
of $30.0 million under our revolving
 
                                      32
<PAGE>
 
credit facility, net proceeds of $2.8 million from the issuance of notes
payable and net proceeds of $2.1 million from the issuance of series A
preferred stock, partially offset by a payment of $1.3 million for bank
financing fees.
 
   In September 1998, we entered into a $40.0 million revolving credit facility
with a bank group led by Fleet National Bank. At March 31, 1999, $39.4 million
was outstanding. On April 13, 1999, we increased our availability under our
credit facility to $70.0 million on similar terms and conditions. Interest is
payable quarterly with the first payment on December 31, 1998. The bank
agreements allow us to elect an interest rate as of any borrowing date of
either the (1) prime rate or (2) LIBOR, plus a margin ranging from 1.5% to 3.5%
depending upon our funded debt to EBITDA ratio. The elected rate as of March
31, 1999 was approximately 8.0%. Automatic and permanent reductions of the
maximum commitments begin September 30, 2000 and continue until maturity.
 
   In September 1998, we issued series A preferred stock and common stock for
gross proceeds of approximately $0.5 million to private investors and
cancellation of outstanding promissory notes. In July 1998, $4.3 million was
raised through the issuance of preferred stock, common stock and promissory
notes to private investors. In 1997, we raised $0.5 million from the issuance
of series A preferred stock to private investors.
 
   As of March 31, 1999, our principal sources of liquidity consisted of $4.4
million of cash and cash equivalents, and approximately $0.6 million of
available credit under our revolving credit facility. In the opinion of
management, we will be able to finance our business as currently conducted and
as currently planned from operating cash flow, current working capital,
available borrowing capacity under our line-of-credit and the net proceeds of
this offering for a period of at least the next twelve months.
 
Year 2000 Compliance
 
   Introduction. The term "year 2000 issue" is generally used to describe the
various computer and other problems that may result from the improper
processing of dates and date-sensitive calculations as the year 2000 approaches
and is reached. These problems arise from hardware and software unable to
distinguish dates in the "2000s" from dates in the "1900s" and from other
sources such as the use of special codes and conventions in software that use a
date field. These problems could result in a system failure of miscalculations
causing disruptions of operations, including among other things, a temporary
inability to process transactions, send invoices or engage in other normal
business activities. The year 2000 issue may pose additional problems due to
the fact the year 2000 is a leap year and some computers and programs may fail
to recognize the extra day.
 
   Our State of Readiness. We have undertaken a preliminary assessment of our
vulnerability to the year 2000 issue with respect to our software network and
information technology. We based this assessment upon a review of our network
and software, communications with our software vendors, telecommunications
providers and third-party suppliers. As part of that review, we have received
disclosure statements from Oracle, Cisco, Gateway and Sun Microsystems, some of
our principal vendors, certifying that their
 
                                       33
<PAGE>
 
equipment is ready for the year 2000. Based on this preliminary assessment, we
believe that the year 2000 issue will not have a material adverse effect on our
financial results. We are continuing to assess, however, the potential impact
of the year 2000 issue on our operations. As a result, we have developed and
implemented a year 2000 readiness plan and we are in the process of testing
equipment, and repairing or replacing equipment if necessary, to ensure its
readiness for the year 2000. We will have no control, however, over the year
2000 compliance of third parties.
 
   Cost to Address Year 2000 Issues. Our historical costs to assess our year
2000 readiness have been negligible. We are not currently able to estimate the
final aggregate cost of addressing the year 2000 issue because funds may be
required as a result of future findings. We do not expect these costs to have
an adverse effect on our business and financial results.
 
   Risks Presented by Year 2000 Issues. We are still in the process of
evaluating potential disruptions or complications that might result from year
2000-related problems. Our failure to correct a material year 2000 problem
could result in a complete failure or degradation of the performance of our
network or other systems, including the disruption of operations and normal
business activities. Presently, however, we believe that the most reasonably
likely worst case scenario related to the year 2000 issue is associated with
third-party services and products. Specifically, Voyager.net is heavily
dependent on a significant number of third-party vendors to provide both
network services, telecommunications lines and equipment. A significant year
2000-related disruption of the services provided to us by third-party vendors
could cause customers to consider seeking alternate Internet access providers
or cause an unmanageable burden on customer service and technical support,
which in turn could materially and adversely affect our results of operations,
liquidity and financial condition. We are not presently aware of any vendor-
related year 2000 issue that is likely to result in such a disruption.
Furthermore, Voyager.net's business depends on the continued operation of, and
widespread access to, the Internet. To the extent the year 2000 issue disrupts
the normal operation of the Internet, our results of operations, liquidity and
financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. Although there
is inherent uncertainty in the year 2000 issue, we expect that as we progress
with our year 2000 readiness plan, the level of uncertainty about the impact of
the year 2000 issue on us will be reduced and we should be better positioned to
identify the nature and extent of material risk to us as a result of any year
2000 disruptions.
 
   Our Contingency Plans. We do not have, but we will continue to evaluate the
need for, a contingency plan for business risks that might result from year
2000-related events. As we progress with our year 2000 readiness plan and
identify specific risk areas, we intend to timely implement appropriate
remedial actions and contingency plans.

Overview
 
   Voyager.net is the largest Internet service provider focused on the
Midwestern United States. We serve residential and business customers in
markets within our target region which we believe have been historically under-
served by the larger, national ISPs. Our primary service offerings are dial-up
Internet access to residential subscribers and dedicated and dial-up Internet
access to businesses. We also provide a variety of value-added Internet
services such as Web hosting, customer Web server co-location, domain name
registration and e-commerce. In addition, we offer enhanced communications
services such as broadband Internet access services using DSL and cable modems,
and long distance voice services bundled with our Internet access products. We
operate the largest dial-up ISP network in the Midwest in terms of geographic
coverage, with approximately 150 Voyager.net-owned points of presence, or POPs,
in Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, Illinois and Indiana.
 
Industry Background
 
   The Internet has rapidly developed into an integral business and personal
communications tool. Consumers and businesses are demanding solutions which
provide them with the ability to access and utilize the Internet in a fast,
secure and reliable manner. Factors driving the growth in the number of
Internet users and Web sites include the large and growing installed base of
low-cost personal computers, advances in the performance and speed of personal
computers and modems, improvements in network infrastructure, easier access to
the Internet and the increasing importance of the Internet as a communications
and commercial medium. IDC estimates that the number of Internet users in the
United States is expected to increase 27.4% annually from 51.6 million in 1998
to 135.9 million in 2002.
 
   U.S. consumers account for the highest concentration of global Internet
users. According to IDC, the number of household on-line subscriptions is
expected to increase from 29.8 million in 1998 to 67.6 million in 2002. This
implies that the on-line penetration rate for U.S. households will rise from
29.5% in 1998 to 64.0% by 2002. Industry experts expect a substantial share of
the residential growth to be derived from the small office and home office
market. This segment represents heavy users of personal computers and
communications services, resulting in high Internet access service needs.
According to IDC, residential Internet access service revenues will more than
double from $4.7 billion in 1998 to $10.6 billion in 2002.
 
   Businesses have also rapidly established corporate Internet sites and
connectivity as a means to expand customer reach and improve communications
efficiency. Many businesses are utilizing the Internet as a lower cost
alternative to certain traditional telecommunications services. The Strategis
Group estimates that the penetration of U.S. businesses connected to the
Internet will rise from 66% in 1998 to nearly 80% in 2003, resulting in 4.1
million businesses being connected to the Internet by 2003. The number of
individual U.S. corporate users is expected to increase from 34.9 million users
in 1998 to 50.3 million users in 2003. According to IDC, U.S. corporate
Internet access service revenues are expected to more than triple from $2.9
billion in 1998 to $10.1 billion in 2002.
 
                                       36

   The ISP market is highly fragmented. As of the end of 1998, there were over
4,850 ISPs in the U.S., according to Boardwatch Magazine. These Internet
service providers vary widely in their geographic coverage, customer focus and
the nature and the quality of their services. The ISP market is generally
segmented into three broad categories:
 
   .  National ISPs are typically full-service providers that offer a broad
      range of Internet access and value-added services to businesses;
 
   .  Regional ISPs which include the regional telephone operators, competitive
      local exchange carriers and Internet access providers, such as
      Voyager.net; and
 
   .  Local ISPs which are typically closely-held start-ups or small companies
      serving a single market.
 
   The vast majority of Internet service providers are small, local operations
with fewer than 10,000 customers each. According to Boardwatch Magazine, there
are approximately 40 national backbone providers and there are approximately
180 national dial-up providers.
 
   Despite the growth in the ISP industry, very few Internet service providers
are profitable. In addition, the dramatic growth of Internet usage and
dependency has prompted customers to demand from their ISPs more enhanced
technology and services and reliable, high speed, quality Internet access.
Thus, ISPs will be faced with expending significant capital resources to
attract and retain subscribers. As a result, the industry is expected to
undergo substantial consolidation over the next few years, particularly among
the local ISPs, who typically lack the financial resources necessary to
continue to compete. We believe that the anticipated growth in Internet use and
the significant number of under-capitalized local ISPs within our region
meeting our acquisition criteria provides us with an excellent opportunity to
extend our scalable business model and become one of the largest Internet
service providers in the U.S.
 
The Voyager.net Solution
 
   The business model that we have developed has resulted in substantial
revenue growth, reduced customer acquisition costs and significant EBITDA while
maintaining high customer satisfaction. Our business model is based on the
following key principles:
 
   .  We control our customer acquisition costs by focusing on markets in the
      Midwestern United States, thereby reducing the need for more expensive
      broad based marketing campaigns;
 
   .  We focus on delivering high quality products and services and superior
      customer care which we believe results in significant word of mouth
      referrals and customer retention greater than industry average;
 
   .  We own and manage 100% of our network equipment and customer care
      operations which significantly reduces our telecommunication costs and
      provides us with greater control over our network utilization,
      efficiency, scalability and quality; and
 
                                       37
<PAGE>
 
   .  We realize significant cost savings and economies of scale from our
      acquired businesses by eliminating duplicated network infrastructure
      and consolidating sales and marketing, network operations, customer
      support and back office operations.
 
   The success of our business model is evidenced by a recent industry survey
in which we ranked 10th among all ISPs in the U.S. in terms of access speed
and reliability, customer satisfaction and product offerings.
 
Our Growth Strategy
 
   Our overall strategy is to continue as the dominant Internet access
provider to residential and business customers in the Midwest. We intend to
continue to capitalize on our scalable business model and strong regional
presence by executing a regional growth strategy through internal growth and
strategic acquisitions.
 
Internal Growth Strategy. The key principles of our internal growth strategy
are as follows:
 
 .   Maintain our superior customer care and service in order to increase
    customer referrals and customer retention. Customer care is at the heart
    of running an Internet service provider. In general, the ISP industry has
    struggled to provide a consistent quality of service. Busy signals and
    inattentive customer support staff represent the principal causes for
    subscriber cancellations. We believe that we are well-positioned with
    established systems, procedures and a core management team and staff to
    manage significant growth without sacrificing quality. We have staffed our
    two large call centers located in East Lansing, Michigan and New Berlin,
    Wisconsin with more than 170 employees, or more than 60% of all
    Voyager.net employees. We have complemented our customer service support
    by developing a proprietary, Web-based customer care and billing solution.
    We believe this system gives us a competitive advantage versus other
    Internet service providers and offers the following benefits:
 
   .  Easy internal use from any computer connected to the Internet;
 
   .  Beginning to end customer service tracking including automated service
      rendering and tracking of marketing channels;
 
   .  Complete technical support history by account;
 
   .  Real-time third-party account creation (order fulfillment);
 
   .  Automated billing and creation of new service plans (including usage
      based billing);
 
   .  Tracking of usage and creation of usage reports;
 
   .  Automated marketing reports and information on subscriber churn; and
 
   .  Third-party accessibility and controllable levels of customer
      interactivity.
 
      As a result of these customer care initiatives, our customer support
  telephone hold times are consistently close to two minutes, compared to an
  industry average of more than five minutes, and our average monthly
  customer churn of 2.6% is significantly less than the industry average.
 
                                      38
<PAGE>
 
 .   Continue to invest in our network to provide our subscribers with the most
    reliable, high quality, high speed Internet access services at lower costs.
    We believe that continually improving our network capacity and speed
    increases our customers' satisfaction and decreases subscriber churn and
    subscriber acquisition costs. The number of subscribers per phone line, or
    contention ratio, is a critical factor in the ISP business, since
    overloading and significant busy signals are the primary causes of
    subscriber churn. Our goal is zero busy signals. Our network capacity
    includes approximately 150 points of presence and approximately 21,000
    phone lines equipped with dial-in digital modems for our customers. As a
    result, our average ratio of subscribers to dial-in modems, or contention
    ratio, is approximately 9:1, significantly better than the industry average
    of approximately 13:1. More importantly, we focus on utilization ratios at
    each POP to ensure that each dial-in location maintains sufficient phone
    lines. We also recently upgraded the speed, capacity and reliability of our
    telecommunications infrastructure by leasing lines from multiple incumbent
    local exchange carriers, or ILECs, and CLECs. We connect our POPs to our
    two main network operating centers in East Lansing, Michigan and New
    Berlin, Wisconsin using high speed T-1 or T-3 leased line connections, and
    from there we have multiple high-speed T-3 connections to the Internet.
    Since we own and manage 100% of all network equipment at our POPs, rather
    than lease the equipment from national carriers, we are able to more
    efficiently load our customers on to each POP and reduce our
    telecommunication cost per customer, the single largest expense for an ISP.
 
 .   Continue our highly focused sales and marketing efforts and use of
    strategic reseller arrangements. We market our services through a
    combination of local, direct advertising and word-of-mouth referrals.
    Because we currently focus exclusively on markets in contiguous states in
    the Midwest, including numerous small- to medium-sized markets, we can
    avoid broad-based and expensive advertising campaigns and have lower
    customer acquisition costs than most of our competitors. Our attention to
    customer care has fostered brand names within our region leading to
    significant customer-to-customer referrals, which account for over 70% of
    all new sales. We also benefit from the ease of use of our customer
    application and support system. Our customer sign-up process is customer-
    friendly and is easily accomplished through our Web site or by calling our
    customer support personnel, and, unlike many service providers' sign-up
    procedures, a Voyager.net user can be on-line in a matter of minutes. In
    addition, we have entered into strategic reseller agreements with several
    companies to further market our services within local communities.
 
 .   Offer enhanced communications services such as DSL, cable modems and
    bundled voice and data services at competitive rates. We presently offer a
    broad range of Internet services to residential and business customers such
    as dial-up and dedicated access, Web hosting, Web server co-location,
    domain name registration and various e-commerce services. We believe,
    however, that consumer users, businesses and residential users, including
    home office users, are increasingly seeking high-speed, high-capacity
    Internet access and a single source for their Internet and
    telecommunications needs. To meet these demands, we have begun offering
    more enhanced services to our subscribers, such as:
 
                                       39
<PAGE>
 
   .  Expanded high speed Internet access through DSL and cable modems;
 
   .  Bundled voice and data telecommunications services; and
 
   .  Branded Web-TV services for Internet access without a computer.
 
      As part of our goal to offer our subscribers these enhanced services,
  we recently filed an application with the State of Wisconsin to obtain
  status as a competitive local exchange carrier. As a CLEC, we will gain
  access to wholesale telecommunication rates and related network elements
  and be able to offer a comprehensive package of bundled voice and data
  telecommunications services to our subscribers. We believe that providing
  enhanced service product offerings will satisfy this emerging customer
  trend of desiring a single source vendor for all telecommunications
  services, adding to our competitive strengths and further entrenching us
  with an expanding customer base. We anticipate filing for CLEC status in
  other states within our region in the future.
 
External Growth Strategy.
 
   Our external growth strategy is to continue to acquire and integrate local
and regional ISPs to increase network utilization and enter new markets. The
key elements of our acquisition strategy are as follows:
 
 .  Identify suitable acquisition candidates. Our management conducts an
   extensive review of ISPs within our target universe to identify promising
   potential acquisition candidates. Desired target characteristics include:
 
   .  high customer growth and customer retention rates;
 
   .  compatibility of product/service mix;
 
   .  cash flow positive operations;
 
   .  dominant local market presence;
 
   .  identifiable scale efficiencies; and
 
   .  expanded contiguous market reach within the Midwest or increased
      utilization of existing POPs.
 
      Using this criteria, during the past ten months our acquisition team has
  successfully identified and consummated the purchase of eleven ISP
  businesses, representing approximately 135,000 subscribers. These
  acquisitions have helped us become one of the twenty largest ISPs in the
  U.S. in terms of subscribers.
 
      We believe that consolidation in the ISP industry will continue and that
  significant opportunities exist for future growth through the acquisition
  of ISPs within our region. We have currently identified approximately 50
  additional companies in the Midwest with between 5,000 and 20,000
  subscribers, representing approximately 500,000 potential subscribers,
  which meet our acquisition criteria. We believe that our regional focus,
  experienced management team and proven integration plan provides us with a
  competitive advantage over national ISPs and other consolidators and allows
  us to more efficiently integrate the acquired businesses. By acquiring
  businesses within
 
                                       40
<PAGE>
 
  one region, we also are able to leverage our existing network and
  administrative operations while gaining a foothold in markets within the
  region, thereby achieving significant economies of scale.
 
 .  Manage the acquisition process. Our acquisition team is an important
   element of this acquisition strategy. We have a dedicated acquisition team
   whose responsibility is to manage the acquisition process, including the
   identification, selection and integration of the acquired business. Our
   acquisition team is continually evaluating acquisition opportunities, and
   has developed strong relationships with Midwest ISP operators and mergers
   and acquisitions professionals. Our acquisition team also works closely
   with our sales and marketing, network engineering and executive management
   teams to identify potential cost savings and synergies for each acquisition
   candidate and to develop a detailed acquisition and integration plan.
 
 .  Integrate the acquired businesses. We also have developed a detailed
   integration plan for our acquired companies which focuses on reducing
   redundant costs and consolidating operations within a short time after
   closing. The first step of our integration process is to assume control of
   all the financial operations as of the date of acquisition to ensure strict
   financial controls over cash and financial reporting. We also centralize
   all of the accounting and related financial functions at our main office in
   East Lansing and incorporate the acquired subscriber accounts into our
   customer care and billing system to take advantage of the functionality and
   scalability of our systems. Once the acquired company's systems are
   transferred, we then consolidate all of the customer support and network
   operations into our two call centers in East Lansing, Michigan and New
   Berlin, Wisconsin, thus eliminating various offices, personnel and their
   related costs. The final component of our integration process is to
   capitalize on our scale economies. We eliminate duplicate network costs and
   bandwidth to the Internet, thereby significantly reducing costs. We also
   realize cost savings by re-negotiating more favorable pricing on
   telecommunication lines and equipment purchases. Our scale allows us to
   demand better pricing from other third-party vendors as well. Our
   successful integration of the acquired companies and the realization of the
   scale economies relating to our acquisitions has contributed to the
   increase in our EBITDA margins since 1998.

    customers, suppliers, and other business partners and use the Web to access
    information on the Internet and communicate with other Web users.
 
 .   Long distance and other telecommunications. We currently resell long
    distance telecommunications services provided by IXC Communications
    Services, Inc. that include inter-lata, intra-lata, 800 service, calling

    operations. We currently offer this interstate and intrastate long-distance
    service to our customers at 9 cents per minute, with no set-up or monthly
    charges. We also have begun offering bundled voice and data services to
    customers who seek Internet access and telecommunications services from a
    single service. We also recently filed an application with the state of
    Wisconsin to obtain status as a CLEC, and we anticipate making similar
    applications in other states within our region.
 
Sales and Marketing
 
   Marketing. Our marketing philosophy is based on the belief that a consumer's
selection of an Internet service provider is often strongly influenced by a
personal referral. Accordingly, we believe that the high customer satisfaction
of our subscriber base has led to significant word-of-mouth referrals. Our
referral incentive program awards subscribers one month of free service for
every customer which joins Voyager.net from their recommendation. As a result,
over 70% of our new sign-ups come from existing subscriber referrals. Our
proprietary customer care and billing system automatically tracks and credits
the subscriber's account, thus providing us with valuable marketing information
and flexibility with this program. We also market our services through
strategic relationships with value added resellers in the local communities,
such as computer stores, trade associations, unions, Web development companies,
LAN administrators and other retail stores which represent and promote us on a
commission basis. These relationships are a significant source of new
customers. In addition, we offer free Internet training classes within our
markets to cultivate interest in the Internet and increase brand recognition.
We do not use mass marketing media as a major source of acquiring new
customers, but instead believe that by providing superior customer service and
developing strong relationships within local communities, particularly in
small- and
 
                                       43
<PAGE>
 
medium-sized markets, we can continue to grow organically at rates greater than
the industry average with very low subscriber acquisition costs.
 
   Web-based Marketing. We maintain a Web site (www.voyager.net) that provides
Internet users with the opportunity to learn about us and enroll in one of our
Internet access service plans. Upon viewing information on our services,
potential customers can either subscribe online or contact a customer support
employee for enrollment. Customers who sign-up on-line or through our 800
number have their accounts created instantly and are thus able to use their
accounts within minutes of account activation.
 
   Free CDs and Diskettes. Upon the request of prospective customers, we
distribute free software via CD and diskettes that contain both the Netscape
browser software for Win95, Windows 3.1 and Macintosh as well as Microsoft's
Internet Explorer 4.0. The software is configured to facilitate installation
and connection to a point of presence. Individuals receiving the CD or
diskettes have the opportunity to obtain the free browser software contained on
the CD by opening an account with us, either online or via a toll-free
telephone number. New customers can be on-line in a matter of minutes after
opening an account on-line or by calling our toll-free telephone number.
 
   Business Sales and Support. We have a business sales and support team
dedicated to selling and providing customized support to our growing small- and
medium-sized business customers. Our business teams include well-trained
support personnel that are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The
business teams are located throughout our target region. This strong local
presence allows us to meet face-to-face with our business customers to evaluate
their needs and respond with customized solutions. Our locally-based sales and
support teams are supported by additional network engineers at our headquarters
for trouble-shooting on specific problems.
 
Customer Service and Technical Support
 
   We believe that customer care and support has been critical in our success
in retaining and attracting subscribers. We provide our customer service and
technical support through our two large call centers located in East Lansing,
Michigan and New Berlin, Wisconsin. We provide 100% of our customer care
internally, and do not outsource any customer operations to third party
providers. We have staffed these call centers with over 170 employees, or more
than 60% of our workforce, and representatives are available 24 hours a day,
seven days a week to field customer questions and inquiries. These two centers
are fully-integrated so that both centers can handle calls from subscribers
located anywhere within our region. This interoperability allows us to more
efficiently handle support calls, thereby reducing telephone hold times. We
recently upgraded our phone system that intelligently routes calls, tracks
important call-in data, automatically answers certain questions and moves
customers quickly through the call-in process. Our comprehensive staff training
program and incentive compensation program linked to customer satisfaction has
led to significant improvements in the time required to move our subscribers
through the various calling queues. In addition to using our call centers,
subscribers can also e-mail questions directly to our technical support staff,
as well as find solutions on-line through the use of the tutorials found at our
Web site. Our free Internet training and
 
                                       44

educational classes within our markets also allow our customers and potential
subscribers to ask questions about the Internet and our services.
 
Network and Technology
 
   We operate the largest dial-up ISP network in the Midwest in terms of
geographic coverage, with approximately 150 Voyager.net-owned points of
presence in Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio and Wisconsin.
 
   Network Infrastructure. Our network infrastructure and related systems are
designed to provide fast, reliable, high quality Internet access services,
including dedicated access. We designed and built our network to specifically
service Internet (data) traffic. The network is comprised primarily of the
latest Cisco Systems' routing and switching equipment, which provides a common
platform for increased flexibility and maintenance while allowing for the use
of advanced routing protocols to quickly and dependably deliver customer
traffic. Our network POPs are linked by T-1, multiple T-1 or DS-3 capacity
connections, which are scalable up to OC-48, if necessary. In addition, we have
two NOCs to oversee traffic flows and general network operations, as opposed to
a single network operating center as found in many national networks, which
helps create redundancy and ensures a secure and reliable network. We are
continuously improving our network infrastructure and connectivity costs
through our relationships with ILECs such as Ameritech Corporation and GTE
Corporation as well as with CLECs such as Brooks Fiber (MCI WorldCom), Phone
Michigan (McLeod), Time Warner, Coast to Coast and Focal Communications.
 
   Our POPs are linked to regional network nodes, or hubs, which for us happen
to be the two NOCs. These network nodes are linked to the Internet by fiber
optic connections and employ asynchronous transfer mode, or ATM, frame relay
and other methods of handling traffic efficiently. Interlinked nodes allow
Internet users to access sites located on other network nodes. In the event
that one of our subscribers wishes to access a Web site that is located on
another service provider's network, data is directed to a network access point
where information sharing is conducted under arrangements known as peering. The
flow of information across a network access point allows information to be
downloaded from one service provider's network to a subscriber on another
service provider's network.
 
   Points of Presence. Our approximately 150 dial-in points of presence
primarily utilize digital access servers manufactured by 3Com Corporation and
Lucent Technologies, Inc. These servers allow for a variety of customer
connections from standard dial-up (up to 56k V.90) to integrated digital
services network and T-1 access speeds. Our entire network has been
reconfigured to include redundant data circuits which will automatically route
customer traffic in the event of a failure. Our network topology offers high
levels of performance and security. Through various relationships with CLECs,
we have been able to reduce the overall number of points of presence by
consolidating several of them into "SuperPOPs" with expanded calling areas. The
SuperPOP allows us to consolidate our equipment into one large modem bank and
eliminate various telecommunication links from our POPs back to the network
operating center, thereby creating enhanced network reliability and reducing
telecommunication costs. We have
 
                                       45
<PAGE>
 
aggressively worked with our providers to create additional SuperPOPs and we
will continue to explore opportunities to create additional SuperPOPs in the
future.
 
   Network Operation Centers. We have two main NOCs, in East Lansing, Michigan
and New Berlin, Wisconsin. These two hubs house all of our internal network
equipment (servers, routers, mail, hosting, disk arrays, etc.) as well as our
main routing equipment and connection to the Internet. The two hubs have
recently been interconnected to provide redundancy and to insure the highest
quality network. The hubs are monitored on a 24 hours per day, seven days per
week basis in order to provide the highest level of network performance.
 
   Peering Relationships. Peering is the act of exchanging data across
networks, typically at specific, discrete locations. By allowing separate
networks to exchange data, users on a particular Internet service provider's
network are able to access information and communicate with users on another
provider's network. Many formal peering points exist where several dozen ISPs
and other providers exchange data, including network access points. Internet
service providers can also run connections to peer with several different
providers (known as multihoming). Multihoming allows an ISP to provide better
service, as inbound and outbound data can go over different routes if a
particular network is overloaded. We have multihoming relationships at multiple
points with several different organizations, including Verio, Inc. in Ann
Arbor, Michigan, NAP.net in Chicago, and MCI and Savvis in Kalamazoo, Michigan,
thereby building in network redundancy that allows for better connectivity for
its customers.
 
   Integrating Acquired Networks. As we continue to play a leading role in
consolidating the Internet service provider industry, one of our most important
tasks is to configure the acquired equipment and network into our regional IP
network. We will continue to gain scale economies by eliminating redundant and
expensive Internet connectivity and better utilizing our current
infrastructure. Our integration plan calls for connecting the acquired points
of presence directly to our network at the most cost effective point and
eliminating duplicate Internet telecommunication costs. We typically connect
within three to six months after the acquisition so as to allow for a prompt
yet smooth integration of the acquired networks and to reduce service
disruptions.
 
Competition
 
   The Internet services market is extremely competitive and highly fragmented.
We face competition from numerous types of providers in our five state region
and anticipate that competition will only intensify in the future as the ISP
industry consolidates. We believe that the primary competitive factors
determining success as an Internet service provider are:
 
   .  Accessibility and performance of service;
 
   .  Quality customer support;
 
   .  Price;
 
   .  Access speed;
 
                                       46
<PAGE>
 
  .   Brand awareness;
 
  .   Ease of use; and
 
  .   Scope of geographic coverage.
 
   We believe that we have competed favorably based on these factors,
particularly due to:
 
   .  Regionally focused operating strategy;
 
   .  Superior customer care and service;
 
   .  High performance of Voyager.net-owned network facilities; and
 
   .  Competitive, multi-tiered pricing policy.
 
   Our current competitors include many large companies that have substantially
greater market presence, brand name recognition and financial resources than
us. Some of our local or regional competitors may also enjoy greater
recognition within a particular community. We currently compete, or expect to
compete, with the following types of companies:
 
   .  Established on-line information service providers, which provide basic
      Internet access as well as proprietary information not available
      through public Internet access, such as America Online, Inc.;
 
   .  National ISPs, including EarthLink Network, Inc. and MindSpring
      Enterprises, Inc.;
 
   .  Numerous regional and local Internet service providers, some of which
      have significant market share in their particular market area;
 
   .  Providers of Web hosting, co-location and other Internet-based
      business services, such as Verio, Inc.;
 
   .  Computer hardware and software and other technology companies that
      provide Internet connectivity with their products, including IBM and
      Microsoft Corporation;
 
   .  National long distance carriers such as AT&T Corporation, MCI WorldCom
      and Sprint Corporation;
 
   .  Regional Bell operating companies and local telephone companies;
 
   .  Cable operators, including Tele-Communications, Inc. and Time Warner
      Cable; and
 
   .  Nonprofit or educational ISPs.
 
   Many of the major cable companies have announced that they are exploring the
possibility of offering Internet connectivity, relying on the viability of
cable modems and economical upgrades to their networks. Cable companies,
however, are faced with large-scale upgrades of their existing plant equipment
and infrastructure in order to support connections to the Internet backbone via
high-speed cable access devices. We believe that there is a trend toward
horizontal integration through acquisitions or joint ventures between cable
companies and telecommunications carriers. The acquisition of Tele-
 
                                       47
<PAGE>
 
Communications, Inc. by AT&T Corporation is indicative of this trend. Other
alternative service companies have also announced plans to enter the Internet
connectivity market with various wireless terrestrial and satellite-based
service technologies. In addition, several CLECs have launched national or
regional DSL programs providing high speed Internet access using the existing
copper telephone infrastructure. Several of these CLECs have announced
strategic alliances with local ISPs to provide broadband Internet access. We
also believe that manufacturers of computer hardware and software products,
media and telecommunications companies and others will continue to enter the
Internet services market, which will intensify competition. Any of these
developments could materially and adversely affect our business, operating
results and financial condition.
 
Government Regulation
 
   The Federal Communications Commission, or FCC, exercises jurisdiction over
all facilities of, and services offered by, telecommunications carriers to the
extent that they involve the provision, origination or termination of
jurisdictional interstate or international communications. Some state
regulatory commissions retain jurisdiction over the same facilities and
services to the extent they involve origination or termination of
jurisdictional intrastate communications. In addition, as a result of the
passage of the Telecommunications Act of 1996, state and federal regulators
share responsibility for implementing and enforcing the domestic pro-
competitive policies of the Act. In particular, state regulatory commissions
have substantial oversight over the provision of interconnection and non-
discriminatory network access by ILECs. Municipal authorities generally have
some jurisdiction over access to rights of way, franchises, zoning and other
matters of local concern.
 
   Internet operations are currently not subject to direct regulation by the
FCC or any other governmental agency (other than regulations applicable to
businesses generally). Due to the increasingly widespread use of the Internet,
however, it is possible that additional laws and regulations may be adopted.
 
   The FCC continues to review its regulatory position on the usage of the
basic network and communications facilities by ISPs. Even though the FCC
determined in April 1998 that ISPs should not be treated as telecommunications
carriers and therefore not regulated, it is expected that future Internet
service provider regulatory status will continue to be uncertain. Indeed, in
that report, the FCC concluded that certain services offered over the Internet,
such as phone-to-phone IP telephony, may be functionally indistinguishable from
traditional telecommunications service offerings and their non-regulated status
may have to be re-examined. Although the FCC has thus far decided not to allow
local telephone companies to impose per minute access charges on ISPs, and that
decision has been upheld by the reviewing court, further regulatory and
legislative consideration of this issue is likely.
 
   To the extent that an end user's call to an Internet access provider is
local rather than long distance, the local telephone company that serves the
ISP may be entitled to reciprocal compensation from the end user's local
telephone company. Reciprocal compensation is a reimbursement from one local
telephone company to a second one for
 
                                       48
<PAGE>
 
handling calls that originate with the first local telephone company and
terminate with the second one. To the extent that a call from an end user to an
ISP is considered intrastate, the local telephone company serving an ISP would
be entitled to reciprocal compensation. This payment of reciprocal compensation
reduces the local telephone company's costs and ultimately reduces the ISP's
costs. The FCC recently determined that most, but not all, traffic to an
Internet access provider is interstate in nature rather than local. This
determination could potentially eliminate the payment of reciprocal
compensation to the local telephone company, which ultimately may increase our
costs. The FCC has yet to rule on the specific issue of reciprocal compensation
and ISP traffic and has currently left individual state regulators to determine
whether reciprocal compensation should be paid. These individual state
decisions may affect our costs.
 
   We have filed for authorization as a competitive local exchange carrier with
the State of Wisconsin and we anticipate that we will seek CLEC status in other
states in the future. To the extent we conduct business as a CLEC, the
telecommunications services that we provide will be subject to federal, state
and local regulation, which may include tariff and price listing requirements
and state certification proceedings. State regulatory authorities exercise
jurisdiction over intrastate services. Local authorities may also have
regulatory power over certain aspects of our CLEC operations. In addition,
pursuant to the Telecommunications Act of 1996, the FCC is required to
establish a subsidy mechanism for universal telephone service to which our
competitive local exchange carrier services will be required to contribute
based on telecommunications revenues. The Act also requires CLECs to make their
services available for resale by other carriers, to interconnect their networks
and ensure they interoperate and provide non-discriminatory rights-of-way,
offer reciprocal compensation for termination of locate traffic, and provide
dialing parity and local telephone number portability. The Act also further
reserves the right for individual states to impose additional state
regulations, including subsidies, which are consistent with the Act. We are
unable to predict how the State of Wisconsin and the other states in which we
become certified as a CLEC in the future, if any, will regulate our services.
 
   By providing interstate, intrastate and international services as a
competitive local exchange carrier, we would generally be subject to tariff or
price list filing requirements pursuant to which we would be required to
publicly disclose, or in some instances obtain approval of, the terms,
conditions and prices for telecommunications services prior to or soon after
offering such services. In addition, individual states in which we may conduct
activities as a CLEC may subject us to state certification proceedings and
intrastate and local tariff regulations. These certifications generally require
a showing that the carrier has adequate financial, managerial and technical
resources to offer the proposed services consistent with the public interest.
While unusual, challenges to these tariffs and certification proceedings by
third parties could cause us to incur substantial legal and administrative
expenses. Many states also impose additional regulatory requirements, such as
minimum service quality reporting and customer service requirements and uniform
local exchange carrier accounting requirements. In addition, some state
statutes provide that changes in the ownership of a competitive local exchange
carrier's outstanding voting securities may require prior approval of the state
public utility commission. In fact, certain
 
                                       49
<PAGE>
 
jurisdictions may require an investor who acquires as little as 10% of a
competitive local exchange carrier's voting securities to obtain prior approval
for such acquisition because such ownership interest might be deemed to
constitute an indirect controlling interest in the carrier. See "Risk Factors--
State and Federal Government Regulation Could Require Us to Change Our
Business."
 
Intellectual Property
 
   We have developed and acquired certain proprietary rights for which we have
sought and will continue to seek federal, state and local protection. We rely
on a combination of copyright, trademark and trade secret laws to protect our
proprietary rights, particularly related to our names and logos. "Voyager.net"
and our associated logo are names and marks which belong to Voyager.net. In
addition, we have registered VoyagerLink and several other names, marks and
logos, and have additional registrations pending for names and marks, under
which we do business at local levels within our region. An integral part of our
successful business strategy is our proprietary Web-based customer care and
billing system. We are exploring whether to seek patent protection with respect
to this customer care system and will act accordingly. We have each of our
employees sign an inventions agreement pursuant to which they agree that any
intellectual property rights developed while in our employment belong to
Voyager.net. We cannot assure you that the steps taken by us to protect our
proprietary rights will be adequate to prevent misappropriation of our
technology or that third parties, including competitors, will not independently
develop technologies that are substantially equivalent or superior to our
proprietary technology.
 
   In connection with the delivery of our access and other services, we rely on
the use of products of software manufacturers that we bundle in our software
for users with personal computers operating on the Windows or Macintosh
platforms. While certain of the applications included in our start-up kit for
access services subscribers are shareware that we have obtained permission to
distribute or that are otherwise in the public domain and freely distributable,
certain other applications included in the start-up kit have been licensed
where necessary. We currently intend to maintain or negotiate renewals of all
existing software licenses and authorizations as necessary, although we cannot
be certain that such renewals will be available to us on acceptable terms, if
at all. We may also enter into licensing arrangements in the future for other
applications.
 
Employees
 
   As of March 31, 1999, we had 278 employees, including 235 full-time
employees and 43 regular part-time employees. We are not a party to any
collective bargaining agreements covering any of our employees, have never
experienced any material labor disruption and are unaware of any current
efforts or plans to organize our employees. We consider our relationships with
our employees to be good.
 
                                       50
<PAGE>
 
Facilities
 
   We lease each of our office locations. Our leases cover in the aggregate
approximately 47,000 square feet of space. We have two primary lease locations
which serve as our NOCs: East Lansing, Michigan, which is also our corporate
headquarters, with approximately 11,265 square feet, which lease expires in
2007; and New Berlin, Wisconsin, where we lease space at four locations
covering in the aggregate approximately 25,000 square feet under long term
leases. We also lease space, typically less than 50 square feet per location,
to house our network equipment at each of our POPs. We do not own any real
estate. We believe that our current facilities are suitable and adequate for
our business and, upon expiration of our leases, we do not anticipate any
significant difficulty in obtaining renewals or alternative space in our
desired markets.
 
Legal Proceedings
 
   We have been, from time to time, involved in various litigation matters
arising in the ordinary course of business. We are not involved currently in
any pending legal proceedings that either individually or taken as a whole,
will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations.

    eligible to receive an annual bonus in an amount equal to 40% of his annual
    base salary. See "--Employment Agreements."
(2) Mr. Williams became our Vice President-Sales in January 1999. Before that,
    Mr. Williams served in various other senior management positions. In
    January 1998, Mr. Williams entered into an employment agreement with us.
    Under the employment agreement, Mr. Williams is entitled to receive an
    annual base salary of $120,000 and is eligible to receive an annual bonus

    purchased by Mr. Torto in 1998, less the aggregate purchase price for such
    shares of common stock paid by Mr. Torto. Prior to this offering, there was
    no public market for our common stock and, therefore, we did not have a
    fair market value of our common stock as of December 31, 1998. Of the
    shares of restricted common stock purchased by Mr. Torto,     shares of
    restricted common stock are fully vested and     shares vest on December

Option Grants in Last Fiscal Year
 
   The following table sets forth information regarding stock options granted
during 1998 to our Named Executive Officers. The exercise price per share of
each option is equal to the fair market value of the common stock as of the
grant date as determined by the board of directors.
 
   The amounts shown as potential realizable value illustrate what might be
realized upon exercise immediately prior to expiration of the option term
using the 5% and 10% appreciation rates compounded annually as established in
regulations of the SEC. The potential realizable value of the options to Mr.
Williams using an assumed initial public offering price of $   per share is
$   at an assumed 5% appreciation rate and $   at an assumed 10% appreciation
rate. The potential realizable value is not intended to predict future
appreciation of the price of our common stock. The values shown do not
consider nontransferability, vesting or termination of the options upon
termination of employee's employment relationship with us.

Option Exercises and Fiscal Year-End Option Values
 
   The following table sets forth information concerning the number and value
of unexercised options to purchase common stock held by the Named Executive
Officers. There was no public trading market for our common stock as of
December 31, 1998. Accordingly, the values of the unexercised in-the-money
options have been calculated on the basis of an assumed initial public
offering price of $  per share, less the applicable exercise price multiplied
by the number of shares acquired on exercise. Neither of the Named Executive
Officers exercised any stock options in 1998.

1998 Stock Option and Incentive Plan
 
   Our board of directors and stockholders adopted the 1998 Stock Option and
Incentive Plan in September 1998. In April 1999, the 1998 Stock Option Plan
was amended to increase the number of shares of common stock and other awards
available under the plan. The 1998 Stock Option and Incentive Plan permits us
to:
 
  .   grant incentive stock options;
 
  .   grant non-qualified stock options;
 
  .   grant stock appreciation rights;
 
  .   issue or sell common stock with vesting or other restrictions, or without
      restrictions;
 
  .   grant rights to receive common stock in the future with or without
      vesting;
 
  .   grant common stock upon the attainment of specified performance goals;
      and
 
  .   grant dividend rights in respect of common stock.
 
   These grants may be made to our officers, employees, directors,
consultants, advisors and other key persons of Voyager.net. The 1998 Stock
Option and Incentive Plan allows for the issuance of up to    shares of common
stock and other awards.
 
   Of the shares reserved for issuance under the 1998 Stock Option and
Incentive Plan:
 
  .   an aggregate of    shares of restricted common stock were sold to Mr.
      Torto on September 23, 1998 and October 2, 1998 at a per share
      purchase price of $  , all of which shares of common stock will be
      fully vested upon the closing of this offering;
 
  .   an aggregate of    shares of restricted common stock were sold to Mr.
      Shires on October 2, 1998 at a per share purchase price of $  , all of
      which shares of common stock will be fully vested upon the closing of
      this offering;
 
  .   an aggregate of    shares of restricted common stock were sold to Mr.
      Michaels on October 2, 1998 at a per share purchase price of $  , all
      of which shares of common stock will be fully vested upon the closing
      of this offering;
 
  .   an aggregate of    shares of restricted common stock were sold to Mr.
      deFaria on January 11, 1999 at a per share purchase price of $  , all
      of which shares of common stock will be fully vested upon the closing
      of this offering;
 
  .   an aggregate of    shares of restricted common stock were sold to Mr.
      Friedly on January 11, 1999 at a per share purchase price of $  , all
      of which shares of common stock will be fully vested upon the closing
      of this offering;
 
                                      58
<PAGE>
 
  .   shares are subject to outstanding options to purchase common stock
      granted on September 23, 1998 to Mr. Williams, with a per share
      exercise price of $  , all of which options are fully vested;
 
  .   shares are subject to outstanding options to purchase common stock
      granted on September 23, 1998 to several of our other key employees,
      with a per share exercise price of $  , all of which options are fully
      vested; and
 
  .   shares are subject to outstanding options to purchase common stock
      granted on January 1, 1999 to several of our key employees, with a per
      share exercise price of $  , which options vest in four equal
      installments on the next four anniversaries of the grant date.
 
   Upon consummation of this offering, we will grant options to purchase an
aggregate    shares of common stock to our employees. The exercise price for
these options will be the initial public offering price of the common stock.
All of these options will vest in four equal annual installments on each of the
first four anniversaries of the date of this offering. Messrs. Friedly,
deFaria, Michaels and Stepaniak will be granted options to purchase   ,   ,
and    shares of common stock, respectively.
 
   The 1998 Stock Option and Incentive Plan is administered by our board of
directors or a committee designated by our board of directors consisting solely
of two or more independent directors. Subject to the provisions of the 1998
Stock Option and Incentive Plan, the board or the committee may select the
individuals eligible to receive awards, determine the terms and conditions of
the awards granted, accelerate the vesting schedule of any award and generally
administer and interpret the plan.
 
   The exercise price of options granted under the 1998 Stock Option and
Incentive Plan is determined by the committee. Under present law, incentive
stock options and options intended to qualify as performance-based compensation
under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 may not be granted at
an exercise price less than the fair market value of the common stock on the
date of grant, or less than 110% of the fair market value in the case of
incentive stock options granted to optionees holding more than 10% of the
voting power. Non-qualified stock options may be granted at prices which are
less than the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date granted.
Options are typically subject to vesting schedules, terminate ten years from
the date of grant and may be exercised for specified periods after to the
termination of the optionee's employment or other service relationship with us.
Upon the exercise of options, the option exercise price must be paid in full
either in cash or by certified or bank check or other instrument acceptable to
the committee or, in the sole discretion of the committee, by delivery of
shares of common stock that have been owned by the optionee free of
restrictions for at least six months. The exercise price may also be delivered
to us (a) by the optionee in the form of a promissory note if the loan of these
funds to the optionee has been authorized by the board of directors and the
optionee pays so much of the exercise price as represents the par value of the
common stock acquired in a form other than a promissory note and (b) by a
broker under irrevocable instructions to the broker selling the underlying
shares from the optionee.
 
                                       59

   In the event of a merger, reorganization or consolidation, the sale of all
or substantially all of our assets or all of our outstanding capital stock or a
liquidation or other similar transaction, all outstanding awards issued under
the 1998 Stock Option and Incentive Plan provides for whether unvested awards
will become fully vested and exercisable upon the closing of the transaction.
The 1998 Stock Option and Incentive Plan and all awards issued under the plan
will terminate upon any of the transactions described above, unless Voyager.net
and the other parties to the transactions have agreed otherwise. All
participants under the 1998 Stock Option and Incentive Plan will be permitted
to exercise for a period of 30 days before any termination all awards held by
them which are then exercisable or will become exercisable upon the closing of
the transaction.

interest accruing thereon at 5% annually. The note matures and all principal
and interest is due on January 11, 2003. The note is secured by a pledge of
shares of common stock and is a recourse obligation of Mr. deFaria in the
amount of 25% of the outstanding principal and 100% of the accrued interest.
 
   In January 1999, we sold    shares of restricted common stock to Mr.
Friedly, the Chairman of the Board of Directors and one of our principal
stockholders. In connection with this sale, Mr. Friedly issued a promissory
note to us in the principal amount of $4.2 million with interest accruing
thereon at 5% annually. The note matures and all principal and interest is due
on January 11, 2003. The note is secured by a pledge of     shares of common
stock and is a recourse obligation of Mr. Friedly in the amount of 25% of the
outstanding principal and 100% of the accrued interest.
 
   In April 1999, Media/Communications Partners II Limited Partnership and
Media/Communications Investors Limited Partnership agreed to purchase
additional equity securities of Voyager.net for an aggregate purchase price of
$5 million. The investors have until November 1, 1999 to purchase these shares.
The commitment to purchase the securities, and the obligations of the parties
thereunder, terminates upon the closing of this offering.
 
   In 1998, we entered into a consulting arrangement with Mr. Friedly, pursuant
to which Mr. Friedly receives $75,000 per year.
 
   In 1998, we entered into a reseller agreement with Horizon Cablevision, Inc.
relating to the reselling of Internet access services using cable modems on
Horizon's cable television systems. Mr. Friedly is the President, and Messrs.
Friedly, Baird and Heinze are principals, of Horizon. This agreement has been
terminated.
 
   In March 1999, we entered into a software license agreement with Horizon
Telecom International, L.L.C., whereby we granted Horizon Telecom International
a non-exclusive license to use our customer care/billing software. Messrs.
Friedly and Torto, as well as investment funds managed by Great Hill Partners,
L.L.C., of which Messrs. Hayes and Gaffney are managing partners, are investors
in Horizon Telecom International and Messrs. Friedly and Torto each serves as
the vice chairman of Horizon Telecom International.
 
   In April 1999, we made a loan of approximately $500,000 to Mr. Torto, our
President and Chief Executive Officer, which is payable over three years and
accrues interest at 5% per year. The loan is unsecured and we have full
recourse against Mr. Torto.
 
   In May 1999, we sold an aggregate 6,667 shares of series A preferred stock
to Messrs. Friedly, Baird and Heinze pursuant to the exercise of an option to
purchase shares of series A preferred stock in the stock purchase agreement,
for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $667,000.

   Since January 1998, we have retained Goodwin, Procter & Hoar LLP for certain
legal services. Mr. Dietz, a director and secretary of Voyager.net, is the sole
shareholder of David F. Dietz, P.C., which is a partner in Goodwin, Procter &
Hoar LLP.
 
   We believe that all of the transactions identified above were conducted on
terms no less favorable to Voyager.net than could have been obtained from
unaffiliated third parties. We have adopted an insider trading policy in
connection with this offering. In the future, all transactions between any of
our officers and directors and us will require the approval of the
disinterested members of our board of directors and will be on terms no less
favorable to us than could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties.

                       PRINCIPAL AND SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
 
   The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial
ownership of common stock as of March 31, 1999 and as adjusted to reflect the
sale of the common stock offered hereby, by:
 
   .  all persons known by us to own beneficially 5% or more of the common
      stock;
 
   .  each of our directors;
 
   .  the Chief Executive Officer and the other Named Executive Officers;
 
   .  each of the selling stockholders; and
 
   .  all directors and Named Executive Officers as a group.
 
   Unless otherwise indicated, each of the stockholders has sole voting and
investment power with respect to the shares of common stock beneficially owned
by the stockholder. The address of the Media/Communications Partners Group is
75 State Street, Suite 2500, Boston, MA 02109. The address of Messrs. Hayes and
Gaffney is c/o Great Hill Partners, L.L.C., One Liberty Square, Boston, MA
02109. The address of Mr. Dietz is c/o Goodwin, Procter & Hoar LLP, Exchange

Voyager.net, Inc., 4660 South Hagadorn Road, Suite 320, East Lansing, MI 48823.
 
   The number of shares beneficially owned by each stockholder is determined
under rules issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The information
is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose.
Under these rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which the
individual or entity has sole or shared voting power or investment power and
any shares as to which the individual or entity has the right to acquire
beneficial ownership within 60 days after March 31, 1999 through the exercise
of any stock option or other right as of March 31, 1999, a total of    shares
of common stock were either outstanding or subject to options, warrants or
other convertible securities that are exercisable or that will become
exercisable within 60 days of the estimated effective date of this offering.
The inclusion in this prospectus of such shares, however, does not constitute
an admission that the named stockholder is a direct or indirect beneficial
owner of such shares. The applicable percentage of "beneficial ownership" after
the offering is based upon    shares of common stock outstanding.

                          DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
 
Authorized and Outstanding Capital Stock
 
   There are currently    shares of common stock and 82,748 shares of series A
preferred stock issued and outstanding. At and subject to the closing of this
offering, all of the outstanding shares of series A preferred stock will be
redeemed by Voyager.net.
 
   Following the offering, our authorized capital stock will consist of
shares of common stock, of which    will be issued and outstanding; and
5,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock authorized and issuable in one
or more series designated by our board of directors, of which no shares will be
issued and outstanding.
 
Common Stock
 
   Voting Rights. The holders of our common stock have one vote per share.
Holders of our common stock are not entitled to vote cumulatively for the
election of directors. Generally, all matters to be voted on by stockholders
must be approved by a majority, or, in the case of election of directors, by a
plurality, of the votes entitled to be cast at a meeting at which a quorum is
present by all shares of common stock present in person or represented by
proxy, voting together as a single class, subject to any voting rights granted
to holders of any then outstanding preferred stock. Except as otherwise
provided by law, amendments to our certificate of incorporation, which will be
effective upon consummation of this offering must be approved by a majority of
the voting power of the common stock.
 
   Dividends. Holders of common stock will share ratably in any dividends
declared by our board of directors, subject to the preferential rights of any
preferred stock then outstanding. Dividends consisting of shares of common
stock may be paid to holders of shares of common stock.
 
   Other Rights. In the event of any merger or consolidation of Voyager.net
with or into another company as a result of which shares of common stock are
converted into or exchangeable for shares of stock, other securities or
property, including cash, all holders of common stock will be entitled to
receive the same kind and amount, on a per share of common stock basis, of such
shares of stock and other securities and property, including cash. On
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Voyager.net, all holders of common
stock are entitled to share ratably in any assets available for distribution to
holders of shares of common stock. No shares of common stock are subject to
redemption or have preemptive rights to purchase additional shares of common
stock.
 
Preferred Stock
 
   Our certificate of incorporation provides that shares of preferred stock may
be issued from time to time in one or more series. Our board of directors is
authorized to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences,
qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, applicable to the shares
of each series. Our board of directors may, without stockholder approval, issue
preferred stock with voting and other rights that could
 
                                       67
<PAGE>
 
adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of the common
stock and could have anti-takeover effects. We have no present plans to issue
any shares of preferred stock. The ability of our board of directors to issue
preferred stock without stockholder approval could have the effect of delaying,
deferring or preventing a change of control of Voyager.net or the removal of
existing management.
 
Registration Rights
 
   Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement entered into on September
23, 1998, Media/Communications Partners II Limited Partnership and
Media/Communications Investors Limited Partnership, who in the aggregate hold
percent of the outstanding shares of common stock as of this offering, may
demand that we file a registration statement for the registration of all or any
portion of their shares under the Securities Act. We are not required to effect
more than a total of one of these demand registrations.
 
   After the closing of this offering, those stockholders also will be entitled
to unlimited piggyback registration rights in connection with any registration
by us of securities for our own account or the account of other stockholders.
If we propose to register any shares of common stock under the Securities Act,
we are required to give those stockholders notice of the registration and to
include their shares in the registration statement. At any time after we become
eligible to file a registration statement on Form S-3, these stockholders may
require us to file an unlimited number of registration statements on Form S-3
under the Securities Act with respect to their shares of common stock, so long
as the aggregate dollar amount of the shares of common stock to be registered
exceeds $250,000.
 
   The registration rights of these stockholders will terminate when the shares
held by them may be sold under Rule 144 under the Securities Act. We are
generally required to bear all of the expenses of all demand and piggyback
registrations, except underwriting discounts and commissions. We also have
agreed to indemnify those stockholders under the terms of the stock purchase
agreement.
 
Indemnification Matters
 
   Our certificate of incorporation contains a provision permitted by Delaware
law that generally eliminates the personal liability of directors for monetary
damages for breaches of their fiduciary duty, including breaches involving
negligence or gross negligence in business combinations, unless the director
has breached his or her duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged
in intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, paid a dividend or
approved a stock repurchase in violation of the Delaware General Corporation
Law or obtained in improper personal benefit. This provision does not alter a
director's liability under the federal securities laws and does not affect the
availability of equitable remedies, such as an injunction or rescission, for
breach of fiduciary duty. Our by-laws provide that directors and officers shall
be, and in the discretion of our board of directors, non-officer employees may
be, indemnified by Voyager.net to the fullest extent authorized by Delaware
law, as it now exists or may in the future be amended, against all expenses and
liabilities reasonably incurred in connection with service for or on behalf of
Voyager.net. Our by-laws also provide for the advancement of expenses to
directors and,
 
                                       68
<PAGE>
 
in the discretion of our Board of Directors, officers and non-officer
employees. Our by-laws also provide that the right of directors and officers to
indemnification shall be a contract right and shall not be exclusive of any
other right now possessed or hereafter acquired under any by-law, agreement,
vote of stockholders or otherwise. We also have directors' and officers'
insurance against certain liabilities and have entered into indemnification
agreements with each of our directors.
 
   Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling Voyager.net as
described above, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. At present, there is no
pending material litigation or proceeding involving any director, officer,
employee or agent of Voyager.net in which indemnification will be required or
permitted.
 
Amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation
 
   Any amendment to our certificate of incorporation must first be approved by
a majority of our board of directors and thereafter approved by a majority, and
in some instances, 66 2/3%, of the total votes eligible to be cast by holders
of voting stock with respect to such amendment.
 
By-law Provisions
 
   Our by-laws provide that a special meeting of stockholders may be called
only by the President or our board of directors unless otherwise required by
law. Our by-laws provide that only those matters included in the notice of the
special meeting may be considered or acted upon at that special meeting unless
otherwise provided by law. In addition, our by-laws include advance notice and
informational requirements and time limitations on any director nomination or
any new proposal which a stockholder wishes to make at an annual meeting of
stockholders.
 
Ability to Adopt Stockholder Rights Plan
 
   Our board of directors may in the future resolve to issue shares of
preferred stock or rights to acquire such shares to implement a stockholder
rights plan. A stockholder rights plan typically creates voting or other
impediments to discourage persons seeking to gain control of Voyager.net by
means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise if our board of
directors determines that such change in control is not in the best interests
of Voyager.net and our stockholders. Our board of directors has no present
intention of adopting a stockholder rights plan and is not aware of any attempt
to effect a change of control of Voyager.net.

Statutory Business Combination Provision
 
   Following the offering, we will be subject to Section 203 of the Delaware
General Corporation Law, which prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation
from consummating a "business combination," except under certain circumstances,
with an "interested stockholder" for a period of three years after the date
such person became an "interested stockholder" unless:
 
  .   before such person became an interested stockholder, the board of
      directors of the corporation approved the transaction in which the
      interested stockholder became an interested stockholder or approved
      the business combination;
 
  .   upon the closing of the transaction that resulted in the interested
      stockholder's becoming an interested stockholder, the interested
      stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation
      outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding shares
      held by directors who are also officers of the corporation and shares
      held by employee stock plans; or
 
  .   following the transaction in which such person became an interested
      stockholder, the business combination is approved by the board of
      directors of the corporation and authorized at a meeting of
      stockholders by the affirmative vote of the holders of 66 2/3% of the
      outstanding voting stock of the corporation not owned by the
      interested stockholder.
 
   The term "interested stockholder" generally is defined as a person who,
together with affiliates and associates, owns, or, within the prior three
years, owned, 15% or more of a corporation's outstanding voting stock. The term
"business combination" includes mergers, asset sales and other similar
transactions resulting in a financial benefit to an interested stockholder.
Section 203 makes it more difficult for an "interested stockholder" to effect
various business combinations with a corporation for a three-year period. A
Delaware corporation may "opt out" of Section 203 with an express provision in
its original certificate of incorporation or an express provision in its
certificate of incorporation or by-laws resulting from an amendment approved by
holders of at least a majority of the outstanding voting stock. Neither our
certificate of incorporation nor our by-laws contains any such exclusion.
 
Trading on the Nasdaq National Market System
 
   We have applied to have our common stock approved for quotation on the
Nasdaq National Market under the symbol "VOYN."
 
Transfer Agent and Registrar
 
   The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock will be State Street
Bank and Trust Company.

                        SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
 
   Before this offering, there has been no public market for our common stock,
and no prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that sales of common
stock or the availability of common stock for sale will have on the market
price of our common stock prevailing from time to time. Nonetheless,
substantial sales of common stock in the public market following this offering,
or the perception that such sales could occur, could lower the market price of
our common stock or make it difficult for us to raise additional equity capital
in the future.
 
   Following this offering, there will be    shares of our common stock
outstanding. Of these shares, the    shares which are being sold in this
offering generally will be freely transferable without restriction or further
registration under the Securities Act, except that any shares held by our
"affiliates" as is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold
only in compliance with the limitations described below. The remaining
shares of common stock which will be outstanding after the offering will be
"restricted securities" as defined in Rule 144, and may be sold in the future
without registration under the Securities Act subject to compliance with the
provisions of Rule 144 or any other applicable exemption under the Securities
Act. In connection with this offering, our existing officers, directors,
stockholders and optionholders, who hold all of the currently outstanding
shares of common stock and will own an aggregate of    shares of common stock
after this offering, have agreed with the underwriters that, subject to
exceptions, they will not sell or dispose of any of their shares for 180 days
after the date of this prospectus. Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette Securities
Corporation may, in its sole discretion and at any time without notice, release
all or any portion of the shares subject to such restrictions. Subject to these
lock-up agreements, the shares of common stock outstanding upon the closing of
the offering will be available for sale in the public market as follows:

                  After the date of this prospectus, freely tradeable shares

                  After 180 days from the date of this prospectus, the lock-up
                  is released and these shares are saleable under Rule 144
                  (subject, in some cases, to volume limitations), Rule 144(k),
                  or under a registration statement to register for resale
                  shares of common stock issued upon the exercise of stock
                  options.
</TABLE>
 
   In general, under Rule 144, as currently in effect, a person or persons
whose shares are required to be aggregated, including an affiliate of ours, and
who has beneficially owned shares for at least one year is entitled to sell,
within any three-month period commencing 90 days after the date of this
prospectus, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1% of the
then outstanding shares of common stock, which is expected to be approximately
    shares upon the completion of this offering, or the average weekly trading
volume of the common stock during the calendar weeks preceding the date on
which notice of such sale is filed, subject to certain restrictions. In
addition, a person who is not deemed to have been an affiliate of ours at any
time during the 90 days preceding a sale and who has beneficially owned the
shares proposed to be sold for at least
 
                                       71
<PAGE>
 
two years would be entitled to sell such shares under Rule 144(k) without
regard to the requirements described above. To the extent that shares were
acquired from an affiliate of ours, such person's holding period for the
purpose of effecting a sale under Rule 144 commences on the date of transfer
from the affiliate.
 
   We have agreed not to sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of common
stock during the 180-day period following the date of this prospectus, except
we may issue, and grant options to purchase, shares of common stock under the
1998 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. See "Risk Factors--The future sale of
shares of our common stock could adversely affect the market price of our
common stock."
 
   Following the offering, under specified circumstances and subject to
customary conditions, Media/Communications Partners II Limited Partnership and
Media/Communications Investors Limited Partnership will have the right with
respect to    shares of common stock, subject to the 180-day lock-up
arrangement described above, to require us to register their shares of common
stock under the Securities Act, and they will have rights to participate in any
future registration of securities by us.

offering are subject to approval of certain legal matters and to certain other
conditions. The underwriters are obligated to purchase and accept delivery of
all the shares, other than those shares covered by the over-allotment option

   The underwriters propose to initially offer some of the shares directly to

offering price and such concessions. The underwriters do not intend to confirm
sales to any account over which they exercise discretionary authority.
 
   DLJdirect Inc., an affiliate of Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette Securities

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors and the Stockholders of Voyager.net, Inc.:
 
   In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash
flows, present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Voyager.net, Inc. (the "Company") and subsidiaries at December 31, 1997 and
1998, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion expressed above.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
 
Organization and Basis of Presentation
 
   Voyager.net, Inc. (the "Company") owns 100% of Voyager Information Networks,
Inc., which was incorporated in the State of Michigan in 1994. Voyager.net was
incorporated in 1998 in the State of Delaware under the name Voyager Holdings,
Inc. The Company's name was changed to Voyager.net, Inc. on April 29, 1999. The
Company provides full service access to the Internet for corporate and
residential users in Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Wisconsin.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
   The Company recognizes revenue when Internet access services are provided.
Internet access service plans range from one month to one year. Advance
collections relating to future access services are recorded as deferred revenue
and recognized as revenue when earned.
 
Cash Equivalents
 
   The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an
initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
Property and Equipment
 
   Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated over their
estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Equipment acquired under
capital leases is depreciated over the related lease terms or the estimated
productive useful lives, depending on the criteria met in determining the
qualification as a capital lease. Costs of repair and maintenance are charged
to expense as incurred.
 
Intangible Assets
 
   Intangible assets consist primarily of the cost of the acquired customer
base. The acquired customer base is amortized using the straight-line method
over 3 years based on the estimated customer churn rate. Bank financing fees,
included in intangible assets, are being amortized on a straight-line basis
over the term of the related debt. Other intangible assets are amortized over a
10 year period. Impairments, if any, are measured based upon discounted cash
flow analyses and are recognized in operating results in the period in which
the impairment in value is determined.
 
Advertising Costs
 
   Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense of
approximately $151,000, $372,000 and $185,000 was charged to operations in
1996, 1997 and 1998, respectively.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
 
 
Financial Instruments
 
   The Company's financial instruments, as defined by SFAS No. 107 Disclosures
About Fair Value of Financial Instruments, consist of cash, notes payable and
long-term debt. The Company's estimate of the fair value of these financial
instruments approximates their carrying amounts at December 31, 1997 and 1998.
 
Use of Estimates
 
   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires 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
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Income Taxes
 
   A current tax liability or asset is recognized for the estimated taxes
payable or refundable on tax returns for the year. Deferred tax liabilities or
assets are recognized for the estimated future tax effects of temporary
differences between book and tax accounting.
 
Interim Financial Information
 
   The consolidated financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 1999
and for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 are unaudited. All
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) have been made,
which in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation.
Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1999 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 1999 or for any other future period.

      October 2, 1998, the Company purchased assets from NetLink Systems,
  L.L.C. for approximately $3,363,000, of which approximately $3,003,000 was

  was allocated to the acquired customer base cost as a result of this
  transaction.
 
   The above acquisitions were accounted for as purchases and, accordingly, the
purchase prices were allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based
upon their estimated fair values at the dates of acquisition. For those
businesses acquired, the results of operations are included in the Company's
consolidated statement of operations from the dates of acquisitions.
 
   The unaudited pro forma combined historical results, as if the Freeway,

   On September 23, 1998, the Company granted 620,000 options to purchase
common stock to certain members of management. At the grant date, 470,000
options were fully vested; the remaining 150,000 options become fully vested on
January 15, 1999. The fair value at the date of grant was $.20 per share based
on an appraisal performed by an independent valuation firm of the underlying
common stock. The weighted-average remaining contractual life of the options
outstanding at December 31, 1998 is in approximately 10 years. The Company
applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees," and related interpretations, in accounting for its stock
options issued to employees. Accordingly, the Company recorded compensation
cost of approximately $120,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998.
 
   Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS 123), compensation cost is measured at the
grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service
(or vesting) period. Under SFAS 123, the Company's net loss and loss per share
for the year ended December 31, 1998, would have been adjusted to the pro forma
amounts indicated in the following table:

   The fair value of each option granted was estimated on the date of grant
using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:
risk free rate of 4.6 percent; no expected dividend; expected life of 4 years
and volatility assumption of 75%.

   During the period from July 1, 1998 through December 31, 1998, Voyager.net
(the "Company") completed seven business acquisitions, whereby the Company
acquired certain assets and customer bases used in connection with the Internet
access service business. These acquisitions were accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the purchase prices were allocated
to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair
values at the dates of acquisitions. See Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for a summary of the acquired
entities.
 
   The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for
the year ended December 31, 1998 assumes that the acquisitions in fiscal 1998
had occurred on January 1, 1998. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated
statement of operations is not necessarily indicative of the results of
operations that would actually have occurred if the transactions had been
consummated as of January 1, 1998 and is not intended to indicate the expected
results for any future period. These statements should be read in conjunction
with the historical consolidated financial statements and related notes of
Voyager.net, and certain acquired businesses, included herein.

(1) EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, and depreciation, and
    amortization and non-recurring, non-cash compensation charges. EBITDA is
    provided because it is a measure commonly used by investors to analyze and
    compare companies on the basis of operating performance. EBITDA is not a
    measurement of financial performance under generally accepted accounting
    principles and should not be construed as a substitute for operating
    income, net income or cash flows from operating activities for purposes of

A.Acquired customer bases were a result of the acquisitions in 1998 and are
    amortized over a three-year period. Additional amortization expense of
    approximately $7.2 million would have been recorded if these acquisitions
    had occurred on January 1, 1998. Total amounts allocated to acquired
    customer base and other costs were $30,102,062 which were included in
    "acquired customer base".
 
B.Voyager.net utilized $30,000,000 of its revolving credit facility to complete
    the acquisitions in 1998. This adjustment reflects interest expense on that
    borrowing assuming a rate of 8.5 percent, which was the rate used at
    December 31, 1998.
 
  The following table illustrates the net cash borrowed from the revolving
  credit facility as of the end of the year to fund the 1998 acquisitions.

To the Board of Directors and the Stockholders of
Voyager.net, Inc.:
 
   In our opinion, the accompanying balance sheets and the related statements
of operations, stockholder's (deficit) equity and cash flows, present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Freeway, Inc. (the
"Company") at December 31, 1997 and at July 31, 1998, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1997 and for the
seven months ended July 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
 
Organization and Basis of Presentation
  Freeway, Inc. ("the Company") provides full service access to the Internet
for corporate and individual users in Michigan.
 
Revenue Recognition
  The Company recognizes revenue when Internet access services are provided.
Advance collections relating to future access services are recorded as deferred
revenue and recognized as revenue when earned.
 
Cash Equivalents
  The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an initial
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
Property and Equipment
  Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated over their
estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Costs of repair and
maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.
 
Advertising Costs
  Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense of
approximately $13,000, $34,000, and $26,000 was charged to operations in 1996,
1997 and 1998, respectively.
 
Use of Estimates
  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires 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 reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Income Taxes
  The Company is taxed as an S-Corporation. Accordingly, the stockholders of
the Company are subject to federal income taxes rather than the Company.
 
2. Property and Equipment:
 
   Cost of property and equipment and depreciable lives are summarized as
follows:

in all material respects, the financial position of EXEC-PC, Inc. (the
"Company") at December 31, 1997 and September 22, 1998 and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1997 and for the
period ended September 22, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these

disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
 
Organization and Basis of Presentation
 
   EXEC-PC, Inc. (the "Company") provides full service access to the Internet
for corporate and individual users in Illinois and Wisconsin.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
   The Company recognizes revenue when internet access services are provided.
Advance collections relating to future access services are recorded as deferred
revenue and recognized as revenue when earned.
 
Property and Equipment
 
   Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated over their
estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Equipment acquired under
capital leases are depreciated over their related lease terms or their
estimated productive useful lives, depending on the criteria met in determining
their qualification as a capital lease. Costs of repair and maintenance are
charged to expense as incurred.
 
Advertising Costs
 
   Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
 
Use of Estimates
 
   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires 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
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Intangible Assets
 
   Goodwill, representing the excess cost over net assets of an acquired
company, is amortized using the straight-line method over 10 years. The
carrying value of goodwill will be periodically reviewed to determine if an
impairment has occurred.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
 
Organization and Basis of Presentation
 
   NetLink Systems, L.L.C. (the "Company") provides full service access to the
Internet for corporate and individual users in Michigan.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
   The Company recognizes revenue when Internet access services are provided.
Advance collections relating to future access services are recorded as deferred
revenue and recognized as revenue when earned.
 
Property and Equipment
 
   Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated over their
estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Costs of repair and
maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.
 
Use of Estimates
 
   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires 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
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Income Taxes
 
   The Company is classified as a limited liability corporation for federal
income tax purposes. Accordingly, no provisions for income taxes are required
as income or losses generated flow to the individual members.
 
2. Property and Equipment:
 
   Cost of property and equipment and depreciable lives are summarized as

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
 
   In accordance with Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law,
Article VII of our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation
provides that no director of Voyager.net be personally liable to Voyager.net,
its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a
director, except for liability (1) for any breach of the director's duty of
loyalty to Voyager.net or its stockholders, (2) for acts or omissions not in
good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of
law, (3) in respect of unlawful dividend payments or stock redemptions or
repurchases, or (4) for any transaction from which the director derived an
improper personal benefit. In addition, our first amended and restated
certificate of incorporation provides that if the Delaware General Corporation
Law is amended to authorize the further elimination or limitation of the
liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the corporation
shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware
General Corporation Law, as so amended.
 
   Article V of our amended and restated by-laws provides for indemnification
by Voyager.net of its officers and certain non-officer employees under certain
circumstances against expenses, including attorneys fees, judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement, reasonably incurred in connection with the defense
or settlement of any threatened, pending or completed legal proceeding in which
any such person is involved by reason of the fact that such person is or was an
officer or employee of the registrant if such person acted in good faith and in
a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of Voyager.net, and, with respect to criminal actions or proceedings,
if such person had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was
unlawful.
 
   We have also entered into indemnification agreements with each of our
directors. These agreements provide that we indemnify each of our directors to
the fullest extent permitted under law and our by-laws, and provide for the
advancement of expenses to each director. We have also obtained directors' and
officers' insurance against certain liabilities.

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
 
   Set forth in chronological order below is information regarding the number
of shares of capital stock issued by Voyager.net during the past three years.
Also included is the consideration, if any, received by Voyager.net for the
shares. There was no public offering in any transaction and we believe that
each transaction was exempt from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by reason of Section 4(2) thereof, based
on the private nature of the transactions and the financial sophistication of
the purchasers, all of whom had access to complete information concerning
Voyager.net and acquired the securities for investment and not with a view to
the distribution thereof. In addition, we believe that the transactions
described below with respect to issuances and option grants to our employees
and consultants were exempt from the registration requirements of said Act by
reason of Rule 701 promulgated thereunder. The share numbers and per share
values set forth below do not give effect to the   -for-1 stock split effected
in connection with this offering. The share numbers and per share values set
forth below with respect to Voyager Information Networks, Inc. do not give
effect to the 20-for-1 stock split effected in September 1998.

Item 17. Undertakings
 
   The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriters
at the closing specified in the Underwriting Agreement certificates in such
denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to
permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
 
   Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act, and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
 
   The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
 
   (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this
registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of
prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h)
under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration
statement as of the time it was declared effective.
 
   (2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.
