             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
                                  (Unaudited)

1.   Basis of Presentation and Restatement

     These consolidated financial statements for the three and six month periods
     ended June 30, 2000 and 2001 and the related footnote information are
     unaudited and have been prepared on a basis substantially consistent with
     the audited consolidated financial statements of VIA NET.WORKS, Inc. ("VIA"
     or "the Company") as of and for the year ended December 31, 2000, included
     in VIA's Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and
     Exchange Commission (Annual Report). These financial statements should be
     read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and
     the related notes thereto included in the Annual Report. In the opinion of
     management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all
     adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which management
     considers necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position
     of VIA at June 30, 2001 and the results of operations and cash flows for
     the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 2001. The results
     of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2001 may
     not be indicative of the results expected for any succeeding quarter or for
     the year ending December 31, 2001.

     On August 9, 2001, the Company announced that it was revising our financial
     statements for the year ended December 31, 2000 and for the first quarter
     2001 to correct certain revenue recognition and cost accounting errors
     arising at one of our acquired subsidiaries. During the course of a normal
     review of aged accounts receivable at the subsidiary and a subsequent
     detailed review, the Company, assisted by outside professionals identified
     improper accounting relating to the recognition of certain revenue and
     associated costs during this period. The revisions primarily address the
     reversal of recorded revenue that was not adequately supported by fully
     executed customer contracts and of costs that had not been incurred; other
     errors addressed include revenue recognized before the provision of service
     where revenue should have been spread over the contract period or
     recognized upon completion, and revenue recognized when payment was in
     bartered services and the value of those bartered services could not be
     determined. The principal effects of the revisions as to each of the
     affected periods was noted in our announcement of August 9, 2001, as filed
     with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on Form 8-K dated
     August 10, 2001, see Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements. In
     this Form 10-Q, references or comparisons to results in 2000 or the first
     quarter of 2001 are to the restated results.

     As a result of the revisions to our 2000 and first quarter 2001 financial
     statements, we will be amending our SEC filings for those periods to
     reflect the revisions to our results.

     The Company acquired 32,000 shares of common stock in an exchange for the
     exercise of employee stock options. This transaction was completed in the
     second quarter 2001.

     Recent Pronouncement

     In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. ("FAS") 141, "Business
     Combinations" ("FAS 141") and FAS 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible
     Assets" ("FAS 142"). FAS 141 addresses the initial recognition and
     measurement of goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business
     combination. FAS 142 addresses the initial recognition and measurement of
     intangible assets acquired outside of a business combination, whether
     acquired individually or with a group of other assets, and the accounting
     and reporting for goodwill and other intangibles subsequent to their
     acquisition. These standards require all future business combinations to be
     accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Goodwill will no
     longer be amortized but instead will be subject to impairment tests at
     least annually.

     The Company is required to adopt FAS 141 and FAS 142 on a prospective basis
     as of January 1, 2002; however, certain provisions of these new standards
     may also apply to any acquisitions concluded subsequent to June 30, 2001.
     As a result of implementing these new standards, the Company will
     discontinue the amortization of goodwill as of December 31, 2001.


2.   Comprehensive Loss

     Comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and
     2001 was as follows (in thousands of U.S. dollars):

3.   Acquisitions of Certain Businesses

     Beginning in June 1998 and continuing through October 2000, the Company
     made a series of acquisitions of Internet services providers located in
     Europe, Latin America and the U.S., each of which offered various Internet
     services including Internet access, web hosting, ecommerce, Internet
     security and other services, primarily to small and mid-sized businesses.

     Each of the acquisitions has been accounted for using the purchase method
     of accounting and, accordingly, the net assets and results of operations of
     the acquired companies have been included in the Company's consolidated
     financial statements since the acquisition dates. The purchase price of the
     acquisitions was allocated to assets acquired, including intangible assets,
     and liabilities assumed, based on their respective fair values at the
     acquisition dates. Identifiable intangible assets as of the date of
     acquisition primarily consist of a customer base, employee workforce and
     the trade name. Because the Company's operating strategy following an
     acquisition generally results in changing the existing target market from
     residential subscribers to small and mid-sized businesses and a focus on
     the VIA NET.WORKS brand name, the value allocated to the acquired customer
     bases and trade names has not been significant. Likewise, due to the short
     operating history of most of these acquired businesses, there is
     uncertainty as to employee retention. As a result, a significant portion of
     the purchase price has been allocated to goodwill.

      Acquisitions

     Since 1998, the Company completed 26 acquisitions for cash, notes and
     common stock:

     In connection with the acquisition of Net4You, we paid approximately
     $195,000 to the minority shareholders of that company in the first quarter
     of 2001. In connection with the acquisition of DNS, we are obligated to pay
     off an acquisition related promissory note, for approximately $901,000, to
     one of the former owners, which we anticipate paying in the third quarter
     2001.

     Depreciation expense was $2.3 million and $3.2 million for the three months
     ended June 30, 2000 and 2001, respectively. Total depreciation expense was
     $4.4 million and $6.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and
     2001, respectively. In the United Kingdom in the first quarter 2001,
     approximately $1.6 million in managed assets that were previously held
     under the network and data center asset category were reclassified as
     hardware. This reclassification was made based on the determination that
     assets held on the customer premises should be classified as hardware
     rather than network assets. Certain network assets as of December 31, 2000
     have been reclassified as hardware to reflect the current year
     presentation.

                                              ==========   ===========

     Total amortization expense was $8.1 million and $12.1 million for the three
     months ended June 30, 2000 and 2001, respectively. Total amortization
     expense was $15.5 million and $24.2 million for the six months ended June
     30, 2000 and 2001, respectively. The value assigned to goodwill, customer
     base and employee workforce is being amortized over its estimated useful
     life of five years.

     During the three months ended June 30, 2001, the Company determined that
     the undiscounted cash flows associated with certain of its long-lived
     assets would not be sufficient to recover the net book value of such
     assets. In accordance with SFAS 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
     Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" ("SFAS
     121"), the Company has recorded an impairment charge of approximately $48.0
     million related to operations in Mexico, United States, Spain and Brazil.
     The respective amounts for this charge were $31.1 million, $16.1 million,
     $524,000 and $324,000. This impairment charge was taken to reflect the
     operations in these countries at fair value. The estimates of the fair
     values of the long-lived assets are based on a valuation of such assets
     performed by management. The fair values, as required by SFAS 121, did not
     consider the value of such assets in a forced sale or liquidation and were
     based primarily on an analysis of the operations' revenue streams, based on
     multiples derived from comparable market transactions.

7.   Contingencies

     From time to time, VIA is subject to claims arising in the ordinary course
     of business. In the opinion of management, no such matter, individually or
     in the aggregate, exists which is expected to have a material effect on the
     results of operations, cash flows or financial position of VIA.

8.   Segment Reporting

     The Company offers a variety of Internet access, web hosting, ecommerce,
     Internet security and related services to businesses and consumers in
     Europe, Latin America and the United States. As of June 30, 2001 the
     Company served primary markets in 15 countries, with operations organized
     into four geographic operating segments--North America, South America, the
     United Kingdom (UK), Ireland and Southern Europe and Central and Western
     Europe. These segments generate Internet-related revenues from leased
     lines, dial-up Internet access, web hosting and design,

     consulting services, and sale of third-party hardware and software.
     Corporate expenses, which are not allocated to one of the operating
     segments, are shown to reconcile to the total consolidated figures.

     Beginning in the quarter ended September 30, 2000, VIA modified its
     definition of total segment assets and beginning in the quarter ended
     December 31, 2000, VIA reorganized its management reporting structure to
     create four reportable segments rather than two. Prior amounts presented
     for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 have been revised to conform to the
     current presentation.

     Each of these geographic operating segments is considered a reportable
     segment. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on
     revenue and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization
     and non-cash compensation charges ("EBITDA"). The table below presents
     information about the reported revenue, EBITDA and assets of the Company's
     segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and 2001, net of
     intercompany revenue of $1.1 million, $2.1 million, $1.9 million and $3.6
     million, respectively, which was eliminated upon consolidation.
     Additionally, the assets presented in this table include intercompany
     receivables and payables. This table is presented in thousands of U.S.
     dollars.

9.   Restatement of Financial Statements

     On August 9, 2001, the Company announced that it was revising its financial
     statements for the year ended December 31, 2000 and for the first quarter
     2001 to correct certain revenue and cost recognition issues arising at one
     of the Company's acquired subsidiaries. During the course of a normal
     review of aged accounts receivables at the subsidiary and a subsequent
     detailed review, the Company, assisted by outside professionals, identified
     improper accounting relating to the recognition of certain revenue and
     associated costs during this period. The revisions primarily address the
     reversal of recorded revenue that was not adequately supported by fully
     executed customer contracts and of costs that had not been incurred; other
     errors addressed include revenue recognized before the provision of service
     where revenue should have been spread over the contract period or
     recognized upon completion and revenue recognized when payment was in
     bartered services and the value of those bartered services could not be
     determined. The principal effects of the revisions as to each of the
     affected periods were noted in the Company's announcement of August 9,
     2001, as filed with the SEC on Form 8-K dated August 10, 2001. In this Form
     10-Q, references or comparisons to results in 2000 or the first quarter of
     2001 are to the restated results.

     Overview

     VIA  NET.WORKS is a leading international provider of Internet access and
     value-added services focused on small and mid-sized businesses in Europe,
     Latin America and the United States. We have built our business through the
     acquisition, integration and growth of 26 Internet services providers in 15
     countries, all of which have been acquired since June 1998. We currently
     operate in Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, France, Germany, Ireland,
     Italy, Mexico, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, the United
     Kingdom and the United States. By targeting businesses in Europe and Latin
     America, we have positioned VIA to capitalize on some of the most rapidly
     growing areas of the Internet market. Our European and Latin American
     markets have a relatively low number of total Internet users, and
     businesses in each region have a relatively low number of Internet services
     available to them. By choosing to serve these market segments, we have the
     opportunity to sell our services to a large number of businesses that have
     identifiable Internet needs but little or no Internet experience. Once we
     have developed relationships with these customers, we seek to upgrade them
     from entry-level Internet access services to more sophisticated and higher
     margin solutions such as managed application hosting and virtual private
     networking. In our U.S. market, we currently focus exclusively on
     web-related services such as shared and dedicated web hosting, and domain
     name registration, and Internet security services such as managed firewalls
     and virtual private networks, or VPNs. Our U.S. operation allows us to meet
     the U.S. web hosting and security needs of our large international customer
     base.

     Our goal is to become the premier provider of international Internet
     solutions for businesses in Europe and Latin America. We intend to reach
     our goal by

     .    delivering world-class service and technical support,

     .    meeting business customers' needs with our reliable international
          network,

     .    providing Internet solutions that provide businesses more productive,
          cost effective ways to communicate information and transact business,

     .    building the VIA NET.WORKS brand name,

     .    delivering quality customer service through continued investment in
          billing, back-office and customer care systems,

     .    continuing investment in network infrastructure and product
          development.

     Our pan-European and trans-Atlantic network provides our European
     operations with high capacity and resilient transport, as well as redundant
     Internet Protocol peering and transit arrangements. Our network is
     connected to the Internet by multiple peering arrangements at major
     commercial Internet exchanges and through transit agreements from multiple
     major carriers. Using these diverse connections, our network dynamically
     routes traffic over the network of the provider best able to deliver the
     data in the most efficient manner. Direct connections to multiple major
     carriers and Internet exchanges assure reliable service levels, protecting
     against traffic congestion and network outages. We have designed a
     redundant network to avoid any single point of failure. Our U.S. and Latin
     American operations are currently connected to the Internet by multiple
     leased, high-speed links. We are in the process of connecting our U.S.
     operations to our network and expect to expand our network and network
     operations center infrastructure to Latin America as capacity becomes
     commercially available.

     We currently offer a comprehensive portfolio of single source Internet
     solutions for business on both an integrated and stand-alone basis. Our
     solutions are packaged to address the needs of businesses that have
     immediate needs for a web presence or for specific Internet capabilities.
     Our solutions are also packaged to address more sophisticated Internet
     requirements. For businesses new to the Internet, our "Starter Solutions"
     provide a simple way to establish an online presence quickly and easily.
     These solutions consist of pre-packaged Internet tools that can be
     purchased individually or in a bundled solution, including Internet access,
     email, web-site hosting and domain registration. For customers ready to
     take advantage of more sophisticated Internet capabilities, our "Tailored
     Solutions" combine the basic starter Internet services with advanced
     Internet solutions. These customized solutions provide a comprehensive
     array of Internet services which we integrate, manage and update for our
     customers on an ongoing basis. Our tailored solutions include advanced
     connectivity services which can address multiple-site, multiple-use and
     mobile user business applications, advanced hosting services which combine
     basic web hosting with more sophisticated applications such as intranets,
     extranets, exchanges, and business productivity capabilities and security
     services which provide extensive network security solutions to businesses
     of all sizes. Many of our customers do not have the internal resources or
     personnel to design or maintain Internet functions. As businesses rely more
     on the Internet for important business applications, they are increasing
     their outsourcing of information technology applications. To meet this
     need, we offer onsite, professional services to customers. Our local
     operations offer a broad range of professional services to their customers,
     including network and system design, web design, web-site development and
     maintenance, VPN and Internet security design and implementation, and other
     Internet-related services.

     The following table summarizes our operations in Europe, Latin America and
     the United States by geographic operating segment, country, operating
     company and revenue contribution. VIA operates in 14 countries organized
     into four geographic operating regions:

     .    Central and Western Europe
     .    United Kingdom, Ireland and Southern Europe
     .    South America
     .    North America

     We generate revenue from the sale of Internet access services and Internet
     value-added services. Revenue from Internet access services, both dial-up
     and dedicated, derives primarily from subscriptions purchased by businesses
     and consumers. Additionally, in some countries we receive revenue in the
     form of payments from the telecommunications companies that our customers
     use to access our services. All of our access revenues are recognized as
     they are earned over the period the services are provided. Revenue from
     Internet value-added services comes from web hosting, applications hosting
     and related maintenance, domain name registration, Internet security
     services, sales of hardware and third-party software, network installation,
     training and consulting and other services. Services such as web and
     applications hosting and domain name registration are generally sold on a
     subscription basis and are paid for in advance or by monthly direct charges
     to credit or debit accounts. These revenues are recognized over the period
     in which the services are provided. Revenue from hardware and third-party
     software sales, installation, training and consulting, and other services
     is on a contract basis. Revenue from installation, training and consulting
     is recognized over the contract term as the related services are provided.
     Revenue from hardware and third-party software sales is recognized upon
     delivery or installation of the products, depending on the terms of the
     arrangement, and when the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility
     is considered probable.

     Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2001 decreased 3% to $25.0
     million as compared to $25.6 million for the three months ended June 30,
     2000. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2001 increased 11% to $50.4
     million as compared to $45.5 million for the six months ended June 30,
     2000. Our second quarter 2001 revenue was favorably impacted by the
     acquisition of 5 operations that occurred between July 1, 2000 and
     December 31, 2000. Residential access revenue declined by 23% in the second
     quarter 2001, as compared to the same period in 2000, reflecting the
     continuing run-off of low margin residential customers. Business access
     revenue decreased 23% for the three months ended June 30, 2001 as compared
     to the three months ended June 30, 2000. VIA obtained its wholesale and
     residential customer bases as part of our original acquisitions. We do not
     generally market to wholesale and residential customers in any of our
     operations and hence we expect these revenues to continue to run off.
     Value-added services, which include web-hosting, web-design, domain name
     registration, data networking, managed bandwidth and bundled service
     offerings increased by 30% for the second quarter of 2001, as compared to
     the same period in 2000.

</TABLE>

     Our Internet services operating costs are the costs we incur to carry
     customer traffic to and over the Internet. We lease lines that connect our
     points of presence, or PoPs, either to our own network or to other network
     providers. We pay other network providers for transit, which allows us to
     transmit our customers' information to or from the Internet over their
     networks. We also pay other recurring telecommunications costs and
     personnel costs, including the cost of the local telephone lines used by
     customers to reach our PoPs and access our services, and costs related to
     customer support and care. We expect that our Internet services operating
     costs will increase by a percentage of any revenue growth. We
     anticipate that these costs will decline as a percentage of revenue,
     however, as we increase the percentage of higher margin value added
     services in our revenue mix, expand our owned network facilities and as
     competition drives the overall price of network capacity downward.

     Our Internet services operating costs were $12.6 million for the three
     months ended June 30, 2001. We had $14.9 million of Internet services
     operating costs for the three months ended June 30, 2000. This decrease was
     due in part to a one-time credit to leased line costs in one of our
     markets.

     Internet services operating costs for the six months ended June 30, 2001
     increased by 2% to $26.1 million as compared to $25.5 million for the six
     months ended June 30, 2000. We incurred these costs primarily to lease
     lines, purchase transit for the local networks and compensate customer care
     personnel. Additionally, we incurred operating costs associated with our
     international network that we established in June 1999.

</TABLE>


     Our largest selling, general and administrative expenses are compensation
     costs and the costs associated with marketing our products and services.
     Compensation costs include salaries and related benefits, commissions and
     bonuses. In many of our markets, we are required to make significant
     mandatory payments for government-sponsored social welfare programs, and we
     have little control over these costs. Our marketing expenses include the
     costs of direct mail and other mass marketing programs, advertising,
     customer communications, trade show participation, web site management and
     other promotional costs. Other selling, general and administrative expenses
     include the costs of travel, rent, utilities, insurance and professional
     fees. We expect that our selling, general and administrative expenses will
     increase to support our growth, but decrease over time as a percent of
     revenue.

     We incurred selling, general and administrative expenses of $26.1 million
     for the three months ended June 30, 2001, a 38% increase over the $18.9
     million we incurred for the three months ended June 30, 2000. Selling,
     general and administrative expenses increased by 37% to $49.9 million for
     for the six months ended June 30, 2001, as compared to the $36.4 million
     for the corresponding period in the preceding year. Bad debt expense for
     the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 2001, was $806,000 and $1.8 million,
     respectively. Of the $26.1 million in costs in the second quarter 2001,
     $2.6 million, or 10%, of the costs were incurred by our corporate and
     regional organizations and $23.5 million, or 90%, of the expenses were
     incurred by our 25 subsidiaries. Beginning in the second quarter of 2001
     the Company allocated corporate and regional expenses to the local
     subsidiaries based upon revenue and other financial metrics. As a result,
     corporate and regional expenses decreased, down 49% from the second
     quarter of 2000, and costs at the operating subsidiaries increased 52%
     from the second quarter of 2000. The increase in costs is also partly
     attributable to planned increases in sales staffing and training in
     support of our organic growth and costs associated with the Company's
     integration activities in the second quarter 2001. Additionally,
     $2.6 million or 36% of the increase in costs at the operating subsidiaries
     was due to the 5 consolidated operations acquired between July 1, 2000 and
     December 31, 2000.

     The largest component of our depreciation and amortization expense is the
     amortization of the goodwill arising from our acquisitions. Goodwill, which
     we amortize over five years, is created when the price at which we acquire
     a company exceeds the fair value of its net tangible and intangible assets.
     We also recognize depreciation expense primarily related to
     telecommunications equipment, computers and network infrastructure. We
     depreciate these assets over their useful lives, generally ranging from
     three to five years. Our network infrastructure is depreciated over 20 or
     25 years, depending on the contract term. The cost of network
     infrastructure purchased under indefeasible right


                                       15

<PAGE>

     of use agreements (IRU) is being amortized over the lesser of the estimated
     useful life or term of the agreement, generally 20 to 25 years. We expect
     depreciation expense to increase as we expand our network supporting
     infrastructures.

     Our depreciation and amortization expense was $15.3 million for the three
     months ended June 30, 2001, up from $10.4 million for the three months
     ended June 30, 2000. We incurred depreciation and amortization expense of
     $30.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001, up from $19.9 million
     for the six months ended June 30, 2000. For the three months ended June 30,
     2001, $12.1 million, or 79%, of our depreciation and amortization expense
     was related to the amortization of acquisition goodwill and $3.2 million,
     or 21% was related to the depreciation of fixed assets. For the same period
     in 2000, $8.1 million, or 77%, of our depreciation and amortization
     expense was related to the amortization of acquisition goodwill and $2.3
     million, or 23% was related to the depreciation of fixed assets. For the
     six months ended June 30, 2001, $24.2 million, or 79%, of our depreciation
     and amortization expense was related to the amortization of acquisition
     goodwill and $6.6 million, or 21% was related to the depreciation of fixed
     assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2000, $15.5 million, or 78%, of
     the total depreciation and amortization expense related to the amortization
     of goodwill and $4.4 million, or 22% of the total was related to the
     depreciation of fixed assets.

     In the second quarter of 2001, the Company wrote down the value of the
     acquired goodwill by $48.0 million. This one time adjustment relates to
     goodwill impairments for operations in the North American; UK, Ireland
     and Southern Europe and South American regions. The impairment charge for
     these regions was $41.1 million, $524,000 and $324,000, respectively.

     For the three months ended June 30, 2001, we earned $2.1 million in
     interest income, a 48% decrease over the $4.0 million we earned for the
     three months ended June 30, 2000. We earned $4.6 million in interest income
     for the six months ended June 30, 2001, down from $6.0 million for the six
     months ended June 30, 2000. Interest income in both periods was generated
     from investing funds received from our initial public offering in February
     2000, until those funds are used for acquisitions, operating expenses or
     capital expenditures. Net proceeds from the public offering were $333.0
     million. We also incurred $211,000 of interest expense for the three months
     ended June 30, 2001, as compared to $380,000 of interest expense incurred
     in the same period in 2000. Interest expense for the six months ended June
     30, 2001 and 2000 was $242,000 and $586,000, respectively. Interest
     expense relates to the debt agreements arising from the notes payable to
     the former owners of businesses acquired and lease financing of equipment
     in our operating subsidiaries.

     We recognized a $2.5 million foreign currency loss for the three months
     ended June 30, 2001, as compared to a $1.4 million foreign currency loss
     for the same period in the prior year. Our foreign currency loss was $8.0
     million for the six months ended June 30, 2001, as compared to a loss of
     $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000. The loss in both
     periods was primarily due to the impact of the fluctuation in the value of
     the Euro on our Euro denominated cash accounts, which were established to
     hold part of the proceeds of our initial public offering in February 2000.
     The remainder of the loss was contributed by fluctuations in the five other
     non-Euro-linked currencies in which we hold assets.

     Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Since inception, we have financed our operations primarily through the sale
     of equity securities. We raised approximately $181.0 million, in the
     aggregate, through three private preferred stock offerings between August
     1997 and April 1999. Through our initial public offering of common stock in
     February 2000, we raised approximately $333.0 million, net of underwriting
     discounts and commissions. At June 30, 2001, we had cash and cash
     equivalents of $185.9 million.

     Cash used in operating activities was $32.7 million for the six months
     ended June 30, 2001 and $9.0 million for the six months ended June 30,
     2000. Cash flows from operating activities can vary significantly from
     period to period depending on the timing of operating cash receipts and
     payments and other working capital changes, especially accounts receivable,
     other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current
     liabilities. In both periods, our net losses were the primary component of
     cash used in operating activities, offset by significant non-cash
     depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock compensation charges and
     unrealized foreign currency transaction gains and losses.

     Cash used in investing activities was $17.6 million for the six months
     ended June 30, 2001 and $39.6 million for the same period in 2000. In 2001
     we used cash to increase our investment in one partially owned operation
     and to pay two contingent earn-out payments in connection with two
     companies acquired in 2000. In the first six months of 2000, cash was
     primarily used for the acquisitions of DNS, Net4You, IAE and ISAR and for
     the increase in investments in various partially owned subsidiaries.

     Cash used by financing activities was $689,000 for the six months ended
     June 30, 2001. In the same period in 2000, cash provided by financing
     activities was $329.1 million. In the second quarter 2001, cash was used
     primarily to repay debt. In the corresponding period in 2000, cash was
     primarily generated by the initial public offering of our common stock in
     February 2000.

     We continue to pursue an aggressive internal growth strategy, and we will
     continue to consider strategic acquisitions on an opportunistic basis.
     Except for the potential need to fund a specific larger acquisition, should
     such an opportunity arise, we do not anticipate the need to obtain
     additional funding before we become self-sustaining.

     As a result of our acquisitions, we will continue to amortize substantial
     amounts of goodwill and other intangible assets. As we grow, we expect that
     the amount of goodwill and other intangibles we will amortize in connection
     with our investments will represent an increasingly smaller portion of our
     expenses. Therefore, we expect to continue to incur net losses until that
     point in time when the goodwill and other intangibles we amortize
     represents a sufficiently small amount of our expenses that it is exceeded
     by our net income before amortization.

     On a periodic basis, management reviews the carrying value of the Company's
     investment in its operations to determine if an event has occurred, with
     respect to any operation, which could result in an impairment of long-term
     assets, primarily goodwill. In its review, management considers market and
     competitive factors, operating and financial trends and the business
     outlook for each operation. As of June 30, 2001, management concluded that
     an impairment of goodwill and other acquired intangible assets had
     occurred. As a result, $48.0 million of goodwill was written off as of June
     30, 2001, related to our North American; UK, Ireland and South Europe; and
     South American regions. The goodwill inpairment for these regions was $47.1
     million, $524,000 and $324,000, respectively. Future changes in operating
     results or business outlook could result in a change in management's
     conclusions with respect to the recoverability of its long-term assets in
     these and other locations.

     The foregoing statements regarding our liquidity and need for additional
     capital resources, as well as our expectations of future amortization of
     goodwill and other intangibles, are forward-looking statements based on
     current expectations, which involve certain risks and uncertainties. Actual
     results and the timing of certain events could differ materially from these
     forward-looking statements

                                       17

<PAGE>

     depending upon the nature, size and timing of future acquisitions, if any,
     and future amounts of net income before amortization, which we cannot
     predict, as well as other factors discussed in the "Risk Factors" included
     on this Form 10-Q as Exhibit 99.1, as well as those described in the "Risk
     Factors" section of VIA's Annual Report.


     Foreign Currency Exchange Risks

     We conduct business in 15 different currencies, including the Euro and the
     U.S. dollar. With the exception of the Argentine Peso, the value of these
     currencies fluctuates in relation to the U.S. dollar. At the end of each
     reporting period, the revenues and expenses of our operating companies are
     translated into U.S. dollars using the average exchange rate for that
     period, and their assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars
     using the exchange rate in effect at the end of that period. Fluctuations
     in these exchange rates impact our financial condition, revenues and
     results of operations, as reported in U.S. dollars.

     Exchange rates can vary significantly. During the six month period ended
     June 30, 2001, we experienced similar exchange rate fluctuations in all
     eight of the Euro-linked currencies in which we transact business. The
     Euro-linked currencies varied by approximately 8% in relation to the U.S.
     dollar during the second quarter of 2001, and at June 30, 2001 were
     approximately 10% below where they were at the beginning of the year. We
     recognized foreign currency losses of $2.5 million and $8.0 for the three
     and six month periods ended June 30, 2001, respectively, due to the impact
     of the fluctuation in the value of the Euro on our Euro denominated cash
     accounts. Future changes in the value of the Euro could have a material
     impact on our financial position and results of operations. We also
     experienced fluctuations in other exchange rates but they did not have a
     material impact on our results.

     Our local operations transact business in their local currencies. They do
     not have significant assets, liabilities or other accounts denominated in
     currencies other than their local currency, and therefore are not subject
     to exchange rate risk with respect to their normal operations. On a
     consolidated basis, we are subject to exchange rate risks because we
     translate our local operations' financial data into U.S. dollars.

     Conversion to the Euro

     On January 1, 1999, 11 of the 15 European Union member countries adopted
     the Euro as their common legal currency, at which time their respective
     individual currencies became fixed at a rate of exchange to the Euro, and
     the Euro became a currency in its own right. Presently, the following 11
     currencies are subject to the Euro conversion: the Austrian Schilling, the
     Belgian Franc, the Dutch Guilder, the Finnish Markka, the French Franc, the
     German Mark, the Irish Punt, the Italian Lire, the Luxembourg Franc, the
     Portuguese Escudo and the Spanish Peseta.

     During a January 1, 1999 through January 1, 2002 transition period, the
     Euro will exist in electronic form only and the participating countries'
     individual currencies will continue in tangible form as legal tender in
     fixed denominations of the Euro. During the transition period, we must
     manage transactions with our customers and our third-party vendors in both
     the Euro and the participating countries' respective individual currencies.
     We have purchased and specified our business support systems, including
     accounting and billing, to accommodate Euro transactions and dual currency
     operations during the transition period. In addition, we generally require
     all vendors supplying third-party software to us to warrant that their
     software will be Euro compliant. Because our acquired European companies
     generally have short operating histories, most of their systems were
     acquired and implemented after the Euro was already contemplated.
     Consequently, any expenditure related to Euro compliance has largely been,
     and will be, in the normal course of business.

     We conduct business transactions with customers, network suppliers, banks
     and other businesses, and we will be exposed to Euro conversion problems in
     these third-party systems. During the transition period, to the extent we
     are supplying local service, we can continue billings and collections in
     the


                                       18

<PAGE>

     individual currencies to avoid Euro conversion problems. However, to the
     extent we have cross-border transactions in European Union countries, we
     will be exposed to Euro-related risks. The establishment of the European
     Monetary Union may have a significant effect on the economies of the
     participant countries. While we believe that the introduction of the Euro
     will eliminate exchange rate risks in respect of the currencies of those
     member states that have adopted the Euro, there can be no assurance
     as to the relative strength of the Euro against other currencies. Because a
     substantial portion of our net sales will be denominated in the Euro or
     currencies of European Union countries, we will be exposed to that risk.

     Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

     The following discussion relates to our exposure to market risk, related to
     changes in interest rates and changes in foreign exchange rates. This
     discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks
     and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially due to a number
     of factors, as set forth in the "Risk Factors" included as Exhibit 99.1 on
     this Form 10-Q and included in the "Risk Factors" section of VIA's Annual
     Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000.

     VIA has exposure to financial market risks, including changes in interest
     rates and foreign exchange rates. At June 30, 2001, VIA's financial
     instruments consisted of short-term investments and fixed rate debt related
     to acquisitions and network purchases. Our investments are generally fixed
     rate short-term investment grade and government securities denominated in
     U.S. dollars. At June 30, 2001 all of our investments are due to mature
     within twelve months and the carrying value of such investments
     approximates fair value. The majority of our debt obligations have fixed
     rates of interest.

     As mentioned previously in the "Foreign Currency Exchange Risks" section,
     VIA has Euro denominated cash accounts, which expose the company to foreign
     currency exchange rate risk. As of June 30, 2001, a 10 percent increase or
     decrease in the level of the Euro exchange rate against the U.S. dollar
     with all other variables held constant would result in a realized gain or
     loss of $3.5 million. Additionally, VIA is exposed to foreign exchange rate
     risk related to its obligations denominated in foreign currencies. These
     obligations are a result of acquiring operating companies in various
     European and Latin American countries. VIA is also subject to risk from
     changes in foreign exchange rates for its international operations that use
     a foreign currency as their functional currency and are translated into
     U.S. dollars. These risks cannot be reduced through hedging arrangements.

Use of Initial Public Offering Proceeds

     On February 16, 2000, VIA completed its initial public offering of shares
of common stock, par value $.001 per share. VIA's initial public offering was
made pursuant to a prospectus dated February 11, 2000, which was filed with the
SEC as part of a registration statement, file no. 333-91615, that was declared
effective by the SEC on February 10, 2000.

     The estimated net offering proceeds to VIA after deducting the estimated
expenses and underwriting discounts and commissions was approximately $333.0
million. From the effective date of the initial public offering through June 30,
2001, VIA has used $86.9 million for acquisitions of other businesses, including
the repayment of debt for 1999 acquisitions and increases in VIA's investment in
various partially owned


                                       19

Statements in this Form 10-Q that are not historical facts are "forward-looking
statements" (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995). These statements include but are not limited to those relating to
projections regarding future network configuration and scope, revenues and
revenue growth, costs (direct and operating costs), earnings per share, EBITDA,
specific product and service sales and capital expenditures. These statements,
when made, are intended to reflect VIA management's then current views with
respect to future events and expectations and are subject to a number of risks,
assumptions and uncertainties which could cause our actual results to differ
materially from those projected in such statements.

            Discussion of Risk Factors, Assumptions and Uncertainties

Risks Related to our Business

Our combined operating history is limited and may not be indicative of our
future performance.

     Although a number of the operating companies we have acquired have been in
operation for some time, VIA, as a combined operation, has a limited history of
operations. Our limited history makes it more difficult to recognize operational
or financial trends and indicators that might otherwise allow us to predict
future financial performance with a higher degree of comfort.

Because we have grown rapidly and we expect our growth to continue, we may have
difficulty managing our growth effectively, which could adversely affect the
quality of our services and the results of our operations.

     We have grown rapidly through acquisitions and focusing on our core market
of small and medium-size businesses. From June 1998 through December 2000, we
acquired 26 companies and increased the total number of our employees from five
to almost 1300. We expect to continue our growth by focusing sales efforts on
value-added services to our core market and continuing to develop our base of
larger corporate customers. To manage our expected growth effectively, we must

     .    implement additional management information systems

     .    develop additional operating, administrative, financial and accounting
          systems and controls

     .    hire and train additional personnel

     .    expand the reach of our network and increase our Internet points of
          presence

     If we are unable to meet these demands, the quality of our services may
suffer, causing us to lose customers and revenues.

Our efforts to reduce our lower margin residential and wholesale customer base
may reduce our revenues in the short or intermediate term faster than we can
generate higher margin business and value-added services revenues

     We have focused our sales and product development efforts on selling higher
margin products and pursuing greater market share of the business market for
Internet and Internet-related services. In doing so, we have allowed our legacy
residential and wholesale customer base to run off and, in certain markets, have
pursued or considered the sale of such customer accounts. We may not be able to
acquire business


                                       23

<PAGE>

customer revenues as quickly as our residential customer or wholesale revenues
diminish, which could adversely affect our operating results.

If we fail to integrate operating and information systems, networks and
management of our acquired companies successfully, we may suffer operating
inefficiencies and reduced operating cash flow.

     We may not be able to integrate our acquired companies to the extent that
we have assumed because we currently operate in 14 different countries with
different governmental regulations, languages, customs, currencies and
availability of telecommunication capacity to carry data. Any material failure
to integrate systems, networks or management of these operations may have a
significant negative impact on the assumptions we make or have made with respect
to cost reductions, sales and marketing opportunities as well as our ability to
adequately serve and bill our customers. In addition, we have and will continue
to commit substantial management, operating, financial and other resources to
integrate our operating companies and implement our business model, which will
continue to reduce our operating cash flow.

Our integration efforts may lead to the loss of key staff and a distraction from
revenue-generating opportunities, which may lead to lower than expected
operating results

     We have acquired multiple operations in the United Kingdom, France,
Germany, The Netherlands and Switzerland. In each of these countries, we are in
various stages of integrating legally, financially and operationally the
separate companies acquired in that country into a single operation. These
efforts may create operational and personnel disruptions that may lead to the
loss of key personnel or require that we increase salaries or fringe benefits to
retain staff. In addition, integration activities require significant attention
from key management and staff at these operations, which may distract management
and staff from revenue-generating opportunities and negatively affect our
results.

Financial information on which we have relied to make acquisitions may not have
been accurate, which may result in our acquiring undisclosed liabilities or
experiencing lower than expected operating results.

     The companies we have acquired typically have not had audited financial
statements and historically have varying degrees of internal controls and
detailed financial information. As a result, we may have acquired undisclosed
liabilities or experience lower-than-expected revenues or higher-than-expected
costs for those companies that we have acquired recently, which could adversely
affect our future operating results. To date, no issues of this kind have arisen
that have materially adversely affected our results; however, they may arise in
the future.

Fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the various
currencies in which we conduct business may affect our operating results.

     We record the revenues and expenses of our local operations in their home
currencies and translate these amounts into U.S. dollars for purposes of
reporting our consolidated results. As a result, fluctuations in foreign
currency exchange rates may adversely affect our revenues, expenses and results
of operations as well as the value of our assets and liabilities. Fluctuations
may adversely affect the comparability of period-to-period results. For example,
the average value of the Euro ((euro)) decreased by 5.4% in relation to the U.S
dollar during the quarterly period ending June 30, 2001 but increased by 6.2% in
relation to the U.S. dollar during the quarterly period ended March 31, 2001.
Because each Euro converted to fewer U.S dollars during the quarterly period
ended June 30, 2001, we reported lower revenue growth than what would be
calculated in local currencies for the second quarter of 2001, and since each
Euro converted into more U.S. dollars during the quarterly period ended March
31, 2001, we reported higher revenue growth than what would be calculated in
local currencies for the first quarter of 2001. In addition, we hold foreign
currency balances that will create foreign exchange gains or losses, depending
upon the relative values of the foreign currency at the beginning and end of the
reporting period, affecting our net income and earnings per share. For example,
the decrease in the value of the Euro from the beginning to the end of our
second quarter of 2001 resulted in a $2.5 million foreign exchange loss and a
reduction in


                                       24

<PAGE>


earnings per share of $0.04, and the decrease in value of the Euro from the
beginning to the end of the first quarter of 2001 resulted in a $5.5 million
foreign exchange loss and a decrease in earnings per share of $.09. In
projecting future operating results, we make certain assumptions about the
fluctuation of the home currencies of our operations. If these assumptions turn
out to be materially inaccurate, our actual operating results may be materially
different from our projections.

Logistical problems or economic downturns that could result from the
introduction of the Euro may affect our ability to operate and adversely impact
our operating results.

     On January 1, 1999, 11 of the 15 European Union member countries adopted
the Euro as their common legal currency, at which time their respective
individual currencies became fixed at a rate of exchange to the Euro, and the
Euro became a currency in its own right. During a January 1, 1999 to January 1,
2002 transition period, we must manage transactions with our customers and our
third-party vendors who conduct business in Euro participating countries in both
the Euro and the individual currencies. If VIA, its customers or vendors,
experience systems problems in converting to the Euro, VIA may be unable to bill
and collect from customers or pay vendors for services, and our operating
results could be materially adversely affected. To date, we have not experienced
any material problems in this conversion effort.

Our brand names are difficult to protect and may infringe on the intellectual
property rights of third parties.

     We are aware of other companies using or claiming to have rights to use
trademarks that are similar to our marks and variations of those marks,
including the VIA NET.WORKS mark. We have received several demands from third
parties to cease and desist using one or more of our trademarks. The users of
these or similar marks may be found to have senior rights if they were ever to
assert a claim against us for trademark infringement. If an infringement suit
were instituted against us, even if groundless, it could result in substantial
litigation expenses in defending the suit. If such a suit were to be successful,
we could be forced to cease using the mark and to pay damages. Moreover, if we
are forced to stop using any of our trademarks, we may have to expend
significant resources to establish new brands and our operating results may be
materially impacted.

Reaction by customers, investors or regulators to the restatement of our 2000
and first quarter 2001 financial results may adversely impact our revenues and
expenses.

     On August 9, 2001, we announced the restatement of our financial results
for 2000 and for the first quarter of 2001. As a result of the restatement, we
may be subject to adverse customer reaction, which may make it more difficult to
attract and retain customers and lead to loss of revenues. Adverse investor
reaction and inquiries by regulators may divert management's attention from core
business needs or strategic opportunities, reduce revenue opportunities or
increase costs.

Risks Related to our Industry

Regulatory and economic conditions of the countries where our operating
companies are located are uncertain and may decrease demand for our services,
increase our cost of doing business or otherwise reduce our business prospects.

     Our operating companies are located in countries with rapidly changing
regulatory and economic conditions that may affect the Internet services
industry. Any new law or regulation pertaining to the Internet or
telecommunications, or the application or interpretation of existing laws, could
decrease demand for our services, increase our costs, or otherwise reduce our
profitability or business prospects. Specific examples of the types of laws or
regulations that could adversely affect us include laws that

     .    impose taxes on transactions made over the Internet

     .    impose telecommunications access fees on Internet services providers

     .    directly or indirectly affect telecommunications costs generally or
          the costs of Internet telecommunications specifically

     .    prohibit the transmission over the Internet of various types of
          information and content

     .    impose requirements on Internet services providers to protect Internet
          users' privacy or to permit government interception of data traffic


                                       25

     .    increase the likelihood or scope of competition from
          telecommunications or cable companies



     For example, Germany has enacted legislation that requires Internet
services providers to establish technical means to permit German authorities to
intercept data traffic of identified customers. The application of the
legislation to Internet services providers has been subject to significant
opposition from Internet services providers industry groups because of the
significant cost that would be imposed on service providers to comply with the
law. This opposition has led to a delay in the implementation of the law. If the
law is ultimately applied to Internet services providers, our German operations
could be significantly impacted. Also, some states of Brazil impose a tax of up
to 30% on revenues generated by communications services. There has been no
judicial determination that Internet access services constitute communications
services. If Internet services providers were ultimately required to pay this
tax, our Brazilian operations would be negatively and significantly impacted.

     These laws could require us to incur costs to comply with them or to incur
new liability. They could also increase our competition or change our
competitive environment so that customer demand for our products and services is
affected.

     In addition to risks we face from new laws or regulations, we face
uncertainties in connection with the application of existing laws to the
Internet. It may take years to determine the manner in which existing laws
governing issues like property ownership, libel, negligence and personal privacy
will be applied to communications and commerce over the Internet.


Increasing competition for customers in our markets may cause us to reduce our
prices or increase spending, which may negatively affect our revenues and
operating results.

     There are competitors in our markets with more significant market presence
and brand recognition and greater financial, technical and personnel resources
than we have. We also face competition from new entrants such as ADSL/DSL and
wireless local loop providers who may have significantly reduced cost structures
in obtaining local access connectivity to the customer. Although the competitors
we face vary depending on the market and the country, these competitors may
include local and regional Internet services providers, telecommunication
companies and cable companies. Some of our competitors, especially the
telecommunications companies, have large networks in place as well as a
significant existing customer base. As a result of this competition, we
currently face and expect to continue to face significant pressure to reduce our
prices, particularly with respect to Internet access services, and to improve
the products and services we offer.


If demand for Internet services in our markets does not grow as we expect, our
ability to grow our revenues will be negatively affected.

     Internet use in our markets is relatively low. If the market for Internet
services fails to develop, or develops more slowly than expected, we may not be
able to increase our revenues at the rate we have projected. Obstacles to the
development of Internet services in our markets include:

     .    low rates of personal computer ownership and usage

     .    lack of developed infrastructure to develop Internet access and
          applications

     .    limited access to Internet services

     In particular, we depend on increasing demand for Internet services by
small to mid-sized businesses in our geographic markets. Demand for Internet
services by these businesses will depend partly on the degree to which these
businesses' customers and suppliers adopt the Internet as a means of doing
business, and partly on the extent to which these businesses adopt Internet
technologies to deal with internal business processes, such as internal
communications. Demand will also partly depend on whether there is a general


                                       26

economic downturn in these markets, which may result in a cutback of
expenditures of the services we offer. Furthermore, as competitive pressures
drive down customer prices for Internet access in many of our markets, we depend
increasingly in such markets on our ability to sell our customers higher margin,
value added services such as security services, web hosting, and ecommerce
solutions.

We are in a rapidly evolving industry in which the products and services we
offer, their methods of delivery and their underlying technologies are changing
rapidly, and if we do not keep pace with these changes, we may fail to retain
and attract customers, which would reduce our revenues.

     The Internet services market is characterized by changing customer needs,
frequent new service and product introductions, evolving industry standards and
rapidly changing technology. Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to
recognize and respond to these changes in a timely and cost-effective manner. If
we fail to do so, we will not be able to compete successfully.


We rely on telecommunications companies in our markets to provide our customers
with reliable access to our services, and failures or delays in providing access
could limit our ability to service our customers and impact our revenues and
operating results.

     Our customers typically access our services either through their normal
telephone lines or dedicated lines provided by local telecommunications
companies specifically for that use. In some of our markets, we experience
delays in delivery of new telephone or dedicated lines that have prevented our
customers from accessing our services. These delays result in lost revenues.
Additionally, some local telecommunications companies that provide Internet
services provide delivery of telephone or dedicated lines to their Internet
customers on a preferential basis, which may cause us to lose current and
potential customers. We also lease network capacity from telecommunications
companies and rely on the quality and availability of their service. These
companies may experience disruptions of service, which could disrupt our
services to, or limit Internet access for, our customers. We may not be able to
replace or supplement these services on a timely basis or in a cost-effective
manner, which may result in customer dissatisfaction and lost revenues.


We depend on the reliability of our network, and a system failure or a breach of
our security measures could result in a loss of customers and reduced revenues.

     We are able to deliver services only to the extent that we can protect our
network systems against damages from telecommunication failures, computer
viruses, natural disasters and unauthorized access. Any system failure, accident
or security breach that causes interruptions in our operations could impair our
ability to provide Internet services to our customers and negatively impact our
revenues and results of operations. To the extent that any disruption or
security breach results in a loss or damage to our customers' data or
applications, or inappropriate disclosure of confidential information, we may
incur liability as a result. In addition, we may incur additional costs to
remedy the damages caused by these disruptions or security breaches. Although we
currently possess errors and omissions insurance, business interruption
insurance, and insurance covering losses resulting from computer viruses and
security breaches, these policies may not provide effective coverage upon the
occurrence of all events.

If we fail to attract and retain qualified personnel or lose the services of our
key personnel, our operating results may suffer.

     Our success depends on our key management, engineers, sales and marketing
personnel, technical support representatives and other personnel, many of whom
may be difficult to replace. If we lose key personnel, we may not be able to
find suitable replacements, which may negatively affect our business. In
addition, since the demand for qualified personnel in our industry is very high,
we may have to increase the salaries and fringe benefits we may offer to our
personnel, which may affect our operating results. We do not maintain key person
life insurance on, or restrictive employment agreements with, any of our
executive officers.

We may be liable for information disseminated over our network.


     We may face liability for information carried on or disseminated through
our network. Some types of laws that may result in our liability for information
disseminated over our network include:

     .    laws designed to protect intellectual property, including trademark
          and copyright laws

     .    laws relating to publicity and privacy rights and laws prohibiting
          defamation

     .    laws restricting the collection, use and processing of personal data
          and

     .    laws prohibiting the sale, dissemination or possession of pornographic
          material

     The laws governing these matters vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.


Our Latin American markets have a history of political and economic instability
which may disrupt our operations and adversely affect our results.

     We derive and expect to continue to derive a material portion of our
revenues from the Latin American markets. Latin America has experienced periods
of political and economic instability. If these conditions were to reoccur, our
business could be adversely affected. Historically, instability in Latin
American countries has been caused by

     .    extensive governmental involvement, control or ownership of industries
          in local economies, including telecommunications facilities, financial
          institutions and other commerce infrastructure

     .    unexpected changes in regulatory requirements such as imposing
          licensing requirements or levying new taxes

     .    slow or negative growth as a result of recessionary trends caused by
          foreign currency devaluations, interest rate hikes and inflation

     .    wage and price controls that reduce potential profitability of
          businesses

     We have made no allowances for the impact of any such potential events in
financial projections we have announced. The occurrence of any such adverse
political or economic conditions may deter growth in Internet usage or create
uncertainty regarding our operating climate, which my adversely impact our
business and operating results.
