          REPORT ON REVIEW BY INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS




To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Lenfest Communications, Inc. and Subsidiaries:



We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of
Lenfest Communications, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 1999, and the
related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss)
for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, and the
consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and
1998, included in the accompanying Securities and Exchange Commission Form 10-Q
for the period ended June 30, 1999. These condensed consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is
the expression of an opinion regarding the condensed consolidated financial
statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for them
to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1998, and the
related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss),
stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year then ended (not
presented herein). In our report dated March 5, 1999, we expressed an
unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion,
the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance
sheet as of December 31, 1998, is fairly stated in all material respects in
relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

                  LENFEST COMMUNICATIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

NOTE 1  - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Condensed Financial Information and Results of Operations

In the opinion of the management of Lenfest Communications, Inc. and
subsidiaries (the "Company"), the accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles and with the regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission and contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to make the condensed consolidated financial statements
not misleading and to present fairly the consolidated financial condition as of
June 30, 1999, the consolidated results of operations for the three and six
months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, and consolidated cash flows for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company's
annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
Form 10-K dated March 30, 1999. The results of operations for the periods ended
June 30, 1999 and 1998, are not necessarily indicative of operating results for
the full year.

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lenfest
Communications, Inc. and those of all wholly owned and majority owned
subsidiaries. Effective January 20, 1999, the Company acquired an additional 71%
of Videopole (See Note 6) and subsequently sold Videopole on August 4, 1999 (See
Note 14). Videopole's financial position, results of operations and cash flows
have not been consolidated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements
since its diposition will result in a gain on discontinued operations in the
third quarter, 1999.

NOTE 2 - MERGER WITH AT&T CORP.

On May 4, 1999, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
("Merger Agreement") with AT&T Corp. and its subsidiary, AT&T LCI, Inc. The
Merger Agreement provides that the Company will merge with and into AT&T LCI
Inc. ("Surviving Corporation"). The Surviving Corporation will be a wholly owned
subsidiary of AT&T Corp. and will succeed to all of the rights and obligations
of the Company. The completion of the merger is subject to the receipt of
necessary governmental approvals, and the consent of the Company's lenders under
its Bank Credit Facility. The transaction is expected to close before the end of
1999.

NOTE 3 - ACCOUNTING CHANGE

In 1999, the Company changed its method of accounting for the costs of start-up
activities to conform to the requirements of Statement of Position (SOP) 98-5,
"Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities". SOP 98-5 requires costs of
start-up activities and organization costs to be expensed as incurred. The
effect of the change was not material to the Company's financial position or
results of operations.

NOTE 4 - SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURES TO STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS, (continued)

Noncash Investing and Financing Activities

On June 29, 1999, the Company purchased the office building located in Oaks, PA,
that has served as the Company's corporate headquarters, and assumed debt of
$3.9 million.

On February 12, 1998, the Company exchanged a partnership interest for a warrant
to acquire Class A common stock of Hyperion Telecommunications, Inc.
(See Note 5).

NOTE 5 - GAIN ON DISPOSITION OF PARTNERSHIP INTEREST

On February 12, 1998, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Lenfest Telephony,
Inc., exchanged its 50% general partnership interest in Hyperion
Telecommunications of Harrisburg ("HTH") for a warrant to acquire 731,624 shares
(the effective number of shares after a stock split) or approximately 2% of
Class A common stock of Hyperion Telecommunications, Inc. ("Hyperion"), the
other 50% general partner in HTH. The value of the warrant was estimated to be
$11.7 million, based on the initial public offering of the Class A common stock
of Hyperion in May 1998. The Company believes that this value approximated fair
market value of the warrant on February 12, 1998. A gain of $11.5 million, which
represents the excess of the market value of the partnership interest over its
book value, has been included in the accompanying consolidated statement of
operations and comprehensive income (loss). The warrant was exercised in
May 1998.

NOTE 6 - NEW BUSINESS AND ACQUISITIONS

On January 20, 1999, the Company through its subsidiary, Lenfest International,
Inc. ("International") purchased 71% of the outstanding common stock of
Videopole, a French cable television holding and management company that
franchises, builds and operates cable television systems in medium to small
communities in France. International also has an 80% partnership interest in
L-TCI Associates, a partnership that owned the remaining 29% of common stock of
Videopole. As a result of the purchase, the Company's direct and indirect
interest in Videopole is 94.2%. Videopole was sold on August 4, 1999
(See Note 14).

NOTE 7 - MARKETABLE SECURITIES

     The aggregate cost basis and market values of marketable securities at June
30, 1999 and December 31, 1998 are as follows:


                                            June 30,             December 31,

                                         -------------          -------------

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

All of the Company's securities are considered to be available for sale. Net
realized gains from the sale of marketable securities, in the amount of $.2
million and $3.7 million are included in the accompanying consolidated
statements of operations for 1999 and 1998, respectively. The specific
identification method is used to determine the cost of each security at the time
of sale.

NOTE 8 - INVESTMENTS, PRINCIPALLY IN AFFILIATES

The Company, through several subsidiaries, owns non-controlling interests in
several general partnerships and corporations. Under the equity method, the
initial investments are recorded at cost. Subsequently, the carrying amount of
the investments are adjusted to reflect the Company's share of net income or
loss of the affiliates as they occur. Losses in excess of amounts recorded as
investments on the Company's books have been offset against loans and advances
to these unconsolidated affiliates to the extent they exist.

The Company, through its subsidiary, Lenfest Jersey, Inc., owns a 10.005%
general partnership interest and a 39.995% limited partnership interest in
Garden State Cablevision L.P. ("Garden State"), a cable company serving
approximately 214,000 customers in southern New Jersey at June 30, 1999. The
Company accounts for its investment in Garden State under the equity method. The
Company is allocated a total of 50% of Garden State's losses. In addition, the
Company is required to make up its partner capital deficits upon termination or
liquidation of the Garden State partnership. Because of the requirement to make
up capital deficits, the accompanying financial statements reflect equity in
accumulated losses, net of related receivables, in excess of investments, net of
distributions, in Garden State in the amount of $71.6 million and $73.4 million
at June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively.

Summarized statements of operations of Garden State, accounted for under the
equity method for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, is as follows:

NOTE 9 - LONG-TERM DEBT, (continued)

On June 29, 1999, the Company, through a subsidiary, purchased the office
building in Oaks, PA, that has served as the Company's corporate headquarters,
and assumed two mortgages with a combined balance of $3.9 million. The first
mortgage has a balance due of $2.8 million and bears interest at 10.5%. Monthly
payments of $33,945 of principal and interest are based on a 20 year
amortization, with a final payment due in October 2011. The second mortgage has
a balance due of $1.1 million and bears interest at 3.0%. Monthly payments of
$13,812 of principal and interest are based on a 15 year amortization, with a
final payment due in December 2006.

On March 9, 1999, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with
a large commercial bank. The agreement has a notional principal amount of $150
million. The agreement effectively changes the Company's interest rate on $150
million of its fixed rate debt to a floating rate based on LIBOR. The interest
rate swap agreement terminates on February 15, 2008. The Company is exposed to
credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the interest
rate swap agreement. However, the Company does not anticipate nonperformance by
the counterparty.

NOTE 10 - CORPORATE INCOME TAXES

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes
in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement (SFAS) No.
109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". SFAS 109 requires recognition of deferred
tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events
that have been recognized in the financial statement or tax returns. Under this
method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the
differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of
assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which
the differences are expected to reverse. Differences between financial reporting
and tax bases arise most frequently from differences in timing of income and
expense recognition. Deferred income tax expense is measured by the change in
the net deferred income tax asset or liability during the period.

The net income tax benefit differs from amounts expected by applying the U.S.
Federal income tax rate of 35% to loss before income taxes primarily from
nondeductible amortization on goodwill and certain other intangibles and
provision for state income taxes.

NOTE 11 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Mr. Lenfest, for the benefit of the Company, and TCI have jointly and severally
guaranteed an aggregate of $67 million of Australis Media Limited ("Australis")
obligations incurred in connection with the purchase of program licenses in
April 1995. The terms of the guarantees provide that the amount of the
guarantees will be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis with payments made by
Australis under the licenses. The Company has agreed to indemnify Mr. Lenfest
against loss from such guaranty to the fullest extent permitted under the
Company's debt obligations. Under the terms of its bank credit facility,
however, Mr. Lenfest's claims for indemnification are limited to the lesser of
the actual claim or $33.5 million. At June 30, 1999, the aggregate amount
subject to guarantee of the obligations under the license agreements was
approximately $17.5 million.

NOTE 11 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES, (continued)

On January 20, 1995, an individual (the "Plaintiff") filed suit in the Federal
Court of Australia, New South Wales District Registry against the Company and
several other entities and individuals (the "Defendants"), including Australis
and Mr. Lenfest, involved in the acquisition of a company of which the Plaintiff
was the controlling shareholder, the assets of which included the right to
acquire Satellite License B from the Australian government. The Plaintiff
alleged that the Defendants defrauded him by making certain representations to
him in connection with the acquisition of his company and claims total damages
of A$718 million (approximately U.S. $479 million as of June 30, 1999). The
Plaintiff also alleged that Australis and Mr. Lenfest owed to him a fiduciary
duty and that both parties breached this duty. The Defendants have denied all
claims made against them by the Plaintiff and stated their belief that the
Plaintiff's allegations are without merit. The trial in this action ended on
September 30, 1998. The Company expects a decision by the end of 1999. Neither
it nor its counsel can predict the outcome of the trial.

The Company has also been named as a defendant in various legal proceedings
arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the
ultimate amount of liability with respect to the above actions will not
materially affect the financial position, the results of operations or the cash
flows of the Company.

NOTE 12 - SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company operates primarily in the cable television industry in the United
States. This segment develops and operates cable television systems and holds
investments in other cable television operating companies in the United States.
Other segments provide cable advertising, promotional, traffic and billing,
telemarketing, paging, internet and digital video services. These segments do
not meet the quantitative guidelines for reportable segments.

The segments' accounting policies are the same as those described in the summary
of significant accounting policies. Management of the Company evaluates
performance based on operating income before depreciation and amortization.
Operating income before depreciation and amortization is commonly referred to in
the cable television industry as "operating cash flow". Operating cash flow is a
measure of a company's ability to generate cash to service its obligations,
including debt service obligations, and to finance capital and other
expenditures. Operating cash flow does not purport to represent net income or
net cash provided by operating activities, as those terms are defined under
generally accepted accounting principles, and should not be considered as an
alternative to such measurements as an indicator of the Company's performance.

Information by reportable segment for each of the six month periods ended June
30, was as follows:

NOTE 13 - REGULATORY MATTERS

The Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") has adopted regulations under The
Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992 (the "1992
Cable Act") governing rates charged to customers for basic and tier service and
for equipment and installation charges (the "Regulated Services"). The 1992
Cable Act placed the Company's basic service equipment and installation rates
under the jurisdiction of local franchising authorities and its tier service
rates under the jurisdiction of the FCC. The rate regulations do not apply to
services offered on an individual service basis, such as per-channel or
pay-per-view services. The rate regulations adopt a benchmark price cap system
for measuring the reasonableness of existing basic and tier service rates.
Alternatively, cable operators have the opportunity to make cost-of-service
showings which, in some cases, may justify rates above the applicable
benchmarks. The rules also require that charges for cable-related equipment
(e.g., converter boxes and remote control devices) and installation services be
unbundled from the provision of cable service and based upon actual costs plus a
reasonable profit. The regulations also provide that future rate increases may
not exceed an inflation-indexed amount, plus increases in certain costs beyond
the cable operator's control, such as taxes, franchise fees and increased
programming costs. Cost-based adjustments to these capped rates can also be made
in the event a cable operator adds or deletes channels. There is also a
streamlined cost-of-service methodology available to justify a rate increase on
basic and regulated nonbasic tiers for "significant" system rebuilds or
upgrades.

Effective March 31, 1999, fee regulation of rates for tier service expired. Rate
regulation continues for basic service rates, charges for cable-related
equipment (e.g. converter boxes and remote control devices) and installation
services.

The Company believes that it has complied in all material respects with the
provision of the 1992 Cable Act, including its rate setting provisions. However,
the Company's rates for regulated services are subject to review by the FCC, if
a complaint has been filed, or the appropriate franchise authority, if such
authority has been certified. If, as a result of the review process, a cable
system cannot substantiate its rates, it could be required to retroactively
reduce its rates to the appropriate benchmark and refund the excess portion of
rates received. Any refunds of the excess portion of tier service rates would be
retroactive to the date of complaint. Any refunds of the excess portion of all
other Regulated Service rates would be retroactive to one year prior to the
Refund Order issued by the applicable franchise authority. The amount of
refunds, if any, which could be payable by the Company in the event that systems
rates are successfully challenged by franchising authorities is not considered
to be material.

NOTE 14 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Effective July 30, 1999, the Company acquired the 54.9% of the outstanding stock
of Raystay Co. ("Raystay") which the Company did not already own. In the
transaction, the Company paid approximately $104.0 million, which amount
included the repayment of all of Raystay's existing indebtedness. The
acquisition was funded in part by borrowings under the bank credit facility.

Effective August 4, 1999, the Company sold the stock of Videopole for $130
million, subject to certain adjustments. The proceeds consist of $65 million
cash and 955,376 shares of United Pan-European Communications, N.V., a company
that is 60% owned by UnitedGlobalCom, Inc. (formerly United Intl. Holdings,
Inc.) Due to government regulations, the United Pan-European Communications
stock cannot be sold on the open market in the United States. The stock can be
sold in a private sale or in a foreign market.

The June 30, 1999 and 1998 condensed consolidated financial statements included
in this filing on Form 10-Q have been reviewed by Pressman Ciocca Smith LLP,
Independent Certified Public Accountants, in accordance with established
professional standards and procedures for such a review.

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

GENERAL

         Substantially all of the Company's revenues are earned from customer
fees for cable television programming services, the sale of advertising,
commissions for products sold through home shopping networks and ancillary
services (such as rental of converters and remote control devices and
installations). Federal law and regulations, including the regulation of certain
aspects of the cable television industry, have affected adversely the Company's
ability to increase or restructure its rates for certain services. These
regulations are intended to limit future rate increases.

         The Company has generated increases in revenues and Adjusted EBITDA for
the three months and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999 primarily through
internal customer growth, increases in monthly revenue per customer, and growth
in advertising revenues. As used herein, "Adjusted EBITDA" represents
consolidated net income from continuing operations plus the provision for income
taxes, interest expense, depreciation, amortization, any other non-cash items
reducing consolidated net income and cash actually distributed by an
unconsolidated affiliate, minus all non-cash items increasing consolidated net
income. EBITDA is presented because it is a widely accepted financial indicator
of a company's ability to incur and service debt. Adjusted EBITDA represents
EBITDA (earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and
amortization) adjusted to include cash distributions received from
unconsolidated and unrestricted affiliates. Adjusted EBITDA corresponds to the
definition of "EBITDA" contained in the Company's publicly held debt securities
and is presented for the convenience of the holders of the Company's public debt
securities. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net
income, as an indicator of the operating performance of the Company or as an
alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Neither EBITDA nor Adjusted
EBITDA is a measure under generally accepted accounting principles.

         Beginning with the quarter ended December 31, 1998, the Company has
included the consolidated financial results of Lenfest Advertising Inc. (dba
Radius Communications) ("Radius"), with the results of its cable television
operations (collectively, the "Core Cable Television Operations"). The financial
results for the Company's Core Cable Television Operations have been restated to
include the results of Radius since its inception in 1996.

RESULTS  OF  OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

         Because the Company's Core Cable Television Operations represent the
significant majority of the Company's assets and results of operations, except
where noted, the change from the prior period is a result of the Core Cable
Television Operations.

         Revenues for the Company increased 10.2% to $129.2 million for the
three-month period ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the corresponding 1998
period.

         Service and Programming Expenses increased 9.5% to $46.5 million for
the three-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding 1998
period. These expenses are related to technical salaries, general operating, and
network programming costs.

         Selling, General, and Administrative Expense increased 2.3% to $27.3
million for the three-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the
corresponding 1998 period. These expenses are associated with office salaries,
facility, and marketing costs.

         Depreciation and Amortization Expense increased 9.9% to $35.0 million
for the three-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding
1998 period.

         Adjusted EBITDA increased 14.7% to $56.3 million for the three-month
period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding period in the prior
year. The increase was primarily due to the Core Cable Television Operations.
The Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 43.6% in 1999 compared to 41.9% for

         Interest Expense increased 0.5% to $29.5 million for the three-month
period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding 1998 period.

         Loss before income tax decreased 62.5% to $5.5 million.

Core Cable Television Operations

         Revenues increased 10.0% to $125.5 million for the three-month period
ended June 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding 1998 period. This increase was
due primarily to increased revenue associated with the basic and CPS tiers and
customer equipment and installation, ("regulated services") and increased
revenue from the Company's advertising subsidiary, Radius. The regulated
services revenue increased 9.0% or $7.7 million compared to the corresponding
1998 period. This increase was primarily attributable to internal customer
growth of approximately 1.7%, and rate increases occurring predominately in the
second quarter of 1999 and fourth quarter of 1998. Non-regulated service revenue
increased 2.1% or $0.3 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 1999
compared to the corresponding 1998 period. This increase was primarily as a
result of internal customer growth. Revenues for Radius increased 47.3%, or $4.0
million, to $12.5 million, representing 35.3% of the increase in revenue for the
Core Cable Television Operations for the three-month period ended June 30, 1999
compared to the corresponding 1998 period. This increase was primarily
attributable to increased advertising sales.

         Service and Programming Expenses increased 9.0% to $44.9 million for
the three-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding 1998
period. These expenses are related to technical salaries, general operating
costs, and programming costs. The increase was primarily related to programming
expense related to costs associated with the basic and CPS tier services and
increased expenses for Radius. Service and programming expenses for Radius
increased 42.3%, or $2.0 million, to $6.8 million, representing 54.1% of the
increase in expenses of the Core Cable Television Operations for the three-month
period ended June 30, 1999, compared to the corresponding 1998 period.

         Selling, General and Administrative Expense increased 17.4% to $24.0
million for the three-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the
corresponding 1998 period. These expenses are associated with office salaries,
facility, and marketing costs. This increase was primarily due to increased
selling expenses for Radius. Selling, general and administrative expenses for
Radius increased 121.2%, or $2.3 million, to $4.2 million representing 64.4% of
the increase in the expenses of the Core Cable Television Operations for the
three-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding 1998
period.

         Depreciation and Amortization Expense increased 9.6%, or $3.0 million,
to $34.4 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the
corresponding 1998 period. The increase was primarily a result of an increase in
depreciation expense related to plant upgrades. The depreciation and
amortization expenses for Radius increased 85.5%, or $0.6 million, to $1.0
million for the three-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the
corresponding 1998 period.

         Adjusted EBITDA increased 7.7% to $57.5 million for the three-month
period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding 1998 period. The
increase was primarily associated with increased regulated service revenue. The
Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to 45.8% for the three-month period ended June
30, 1999 compared to 46.8% for the corresponding 1998 period. This decrease was
primarily caused by an increase in programming, selling, general and
administrative expenses.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

SIX-MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 COMPARED WITH SIX-MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

         Because the Company's Core Cable Television Operations represent the
significant majority of the Company's assets and results of operations, except
where noted, the change from the prior period is a result of the Core Cable
Television Operations.

         Revenues for the Company increased 11.9% to $255.1 million for the
six-month period ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the corresponding 1998
period.
         Service and Programming Expenses increased 14.3% to $93.3 million for
the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding 1998
period. These expenses are related to technical salaries, general operating, and
network programming costs.

         Selling, General, and Administrative Expense increased 10.7% to $54.7
million for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the
corresponding 1998 period. These expenses are associated with office salaries,
facility, and marketing costs.

         Depreciation and Amortization Expense increased 2.3% to $70.0 million
for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding 1998
period.

         Adjusted EBITDA increased 10.0% to $108.8 million for the six-month
period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding period in the prior
year. The increase was primarily due to the Core Cable Television Operations.
The Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to 42.7% for the six-month period ended
June 30, 1999 compared to 43.4% for the corresponding 1998 period.

         Interest Expense decreased 3.1% to $58.9 million for the six-month
period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding 1998 period. The
decrease was primarily due to refinancing of existing indebtedness with debt
carrying a lower interest rate.

         Loss before income tax decreased 10.0% to $17.4 million.

Core Cable Television Operations

         Revenues increased 12.7% to $250.3 million for the six-month period
ended June 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding 1998 period. This increase was
due primarily to increased revenue associated with regulated services and
increased revenue from Radius. The regulated services revenue increased 9.8% or
$16.3 million compared to the corresponding 1998 period. This increase was
primarily attributable to internal customer growth of approximately 1.7%, and
rate increases occurring predominately in the second quarter of 1999 and fourth
quarter of 1998. Non-regulated service revenue increased 3.5% or $1.0 million
for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding 1998
period. This increase was primarily as a result of internal customer growth.
Revenues for Radius increased 58.3%, or $8.7 million, to $23.6 million,
representing 30.8% of the increase in revenue for the Core Cable Television
Operations for the six-months ended June 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding
1998 period. This increase was primarily attributable to increased advertising
sales.

                                      -19-
<PAGE>


         Service and Programming Expenses increased 16.2% to $90.9 million for
the six-month period ended 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding 1998 period.
These expenses are related to technical salaries, general operating costs, and
programming costs. The increase was primarily related to programming expense
related to costs associated with the basic and CPS tier services and increased
service and programming expenses for Radius. Service and programming expenses
for Radius increased 60.8%, or $4.9 million, to $12.9 million, representing
38.5% of the increase in expenses of the Core Cable Television Operations for
the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding 1998
period.

         Selling, General and Administrative Expense increased 24.2% to $49.8
million for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the
corresponding 1998 period. These expenses are associated with office salaries,
facility, and marketing costs. This increase was primarily due to the
consolidation efforts of the Company migrating to one call center facility.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for Radius increased 85.0%, or $3.7
million, to $8.0 million representing 37.7% of the increase in the expenses of
the Core Cable Television Operations for the six-month period ended June 30,
1999 compared to the corresponding 1998 period. This increase for Radius was
primarily due to increased selling expenses.

         Depreciation and Amortization Expense increased 1.9%, or $1.3 million,
to $68.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the
corresponding 1998 period. The increase was primarily a result of an increase in
depreciation expense related to equipment upgrades. The depreciation and
amortization expenses for Radius increased 89.3%, or $1.0 million, to $2.1
million for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the
corresponding 1998 period.

         Adjusted EBITDA increased 5.3% to $111.4 million for the six-month
period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the corresponding 1998 period. The
increase was primarily associated with increased regulated service revenue. The
Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to 44.5% for the six-months ended June 30, 1999
compared to 47.6% for the corresponding 1998 period. This decrease was primarily
caused by an increase in programming and selling, general and administrative
expenses.


LIQUIDITY  AND  CAPITAL  RESOURCES

         The Company's businesses require cash for operations, debt service,
capital expenditures and acquisitions. To date, cash requirements have been
funded by cash flow from operations and borrowings.

         Financing Activities. At June 30, 1999, the Company had aggregate total
indebtedness of approximately $1,330.9 million. The Company's senior
indebtedness of $888.1 million consisted of: (i) $837.4 million of 7-5/8% and
8-3/8% Senior Notes; (ii) obligations under its August 4, 1999 Bank Credit
Facility ("Bank Credit Facility") of $45.0 million; (iii) $3.9 million of
mortgages payable obligations (see below), and (iv) obligations under capital
leases of approximately $1.8 million. At June 30, 1999, the Company had
approximately $442.8 million of 8-1/4% and 10-1/2% Senior Subordinated Notes
outstanding. The Senior Subordinated Notes are general unsecured obligations of
the Company subordinate in right of payment to all present and future senior
indebtedness of the Company.

         Loans outstanding under the Bank Credit Facility bear interest at
floating rates. The Bank Credit Facility contains customary covenants, including
restrictive covenants, which impose certain limitations on the Company and its
wholly owned cable operating subsidiaries and Radius, including, among other
things, incurring additional indebtedness, the payment of dividends, the
repurchase of stock, the making of certain payments and purchases, the making of
acquisitions and investments, the creation of certain liens, disposing or
acquiring assets, sale-leaseback transactions, and transactions with affiliates.
The Bank Credit Facility also includes financial covenants requiring the Company
to maintain certain financial ratios at specified levels. The Bank Credit
Facility also contains customary default provisions, including nonpayment of
principal, interest, fees and other amounts when due, violation of covenants,
failure of representations and warranties to be true and correct in all material
respects when made, cross defaults and cross acceleration to other debt
obligations, bankruptcy events, unsatisfied judgments in excess of specified
amounts and change of control.

         On June 29, 1999, the Company, through a subsidiary, purchased the
office building in Oaks, PA, that has served as the Company's corporate
headquarters, and assumed two mortgages with a combined balance of $3.9 million.
See footnote 9 of the Company's financial statements for more information.

         Operations. Cash flow generated from continuing operations, excluding
changes in operating assets and liabilities that result from timing issues and
considering only adjustments for non-cash charges, was approximately $49.0
million for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to approximately
$36.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 1998. During the six-month
period ended June 30, 1999 the Company was required to make interest payments of
approximately $57.9 million on outstanding debt obligations, whereas in the same
period in the prior year, the Company was required under its then existing debt
obligations to make interest payments of $54.2 million.

                                      -20-
<PAGE>


         Future minimum lease payments under all capital leases and
non-cancelable operating leases for each of the years 1999 through 2002 are $5.6
million, $4.4 million, $2.9 million and $1.4 million, respectively.

         The Company has recorded a net deferred tax asset of $64.9 million, net
of a valuation allowance of $53.1 million, reflecting the estimated benefit of
approximately $435 million in loss carryforwards, which expire in varying
amounts between the years 2000 - 2018. Realization depends on generating
sufficient taxable income before expiration of the loss carryforwards. Although
realization is not assured, the Company believes that commencing in 2000, it
will begin to generate taxable income as a result of increasing revenues, the
elections of slower tax depreciation methods and anticipated declines in
amortization deductions. The amount of the net deferred tax asset considered
realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future
taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced. See Note 17 of the
Company's Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's Form 10-K
filed on March 30, 1999 for the minimum amounts of taxable income required each
year for the Company to fully utilize its net operating losses for such year
until such losses expire.

         In November 1994, H.F. Lenfest and TCI International, Inc. jointly and
severally guaranteed $67.0 million in program license obligations to the
distributors of movie programming for Australis. As of June 30, 1999, the
Company believes the amount subject to the guarantee under the license
agreements was approximately $17.5 million. The Company has agreed to indemnify
Mr. Lenfest against loss from such guaranty to the fullest extent permitted
under the Company's debt obligations. Under the terms of the Bank Credit
Facility, however, Mr. Lenfest's claims for indemnification are limited to the
lesser of the actual claim or $33.5 million. The Company does not believe that
Mr. Lenfest's guarantee will be called, and, as of the date hereof, there has
been no demand for payment under the guarantee of the program license
obligations.

         Capital Expenditures. For the six-month period ending June 30, 1999,
the Company made approximately $72.9 million of capital expenditures. During
1999, the Company expects to make approximately $180 million of capital
expenditures, of which approximately $160 million is expected to be spent for
the upgrading of certain of its cable television systems, including wide
deployment of fiber optics, maintenance, including plant extensions,
installations, and other fixed assets as well as other capital projects
associated with implementing the Company's clustering strategy. The amount of
such capital expenditures for years subsequent to 1999 will depend on numerous
factors, many of which are beyond the Company's control, including responding to
competition and increasing capacity to handle new product offerings in affected
cable television systems. The Company anticipates that capital expenditures for
years subsequent to 1999 will continue to be significant.

         Resources. Management believes, based on its current business plans,
that the Company has sufficient funds available from operating cash flow and
from borrowing capacity under the Bank Credit Facility to fund its operations,
capital expenditure plans and debt service. To the extent the Company seeks
additional acquisitions, it may need to obtain additional financing. However,
the Company's ability to borrow funds under the Bank Credit Facility requires
that the Company be in compliance with certain financial ratios at specified
levels or obtain the consent of the lenders thereunder to a waiver or amendment
of the applicable financial ratios. As of June 30, 1999, Management believes
that the Company was in compliance with such financial ratios.

             On January 20, 1999, the Company through its subsidiary, Lenfest
International, Inc. ("International") purchased 71% of the outstanding common
stock of Videopole, a French cable television holding and management company
that franchises, builds and operates cable television systems in medium to small
communities in France. International also has an 80% partnership interest in
L-TCI Associates, a partnership that owns the remaining 29% of common stock of
Videopole. As a result of the purchase, the Company's direct and indirect
interest in Videopole is 94.2%.

             Effective August 4, 1999, the Company sold the stock of Videopole
for $130.0 million, subject to certain adjustments. The proceeds consist of
$65.0 million in cash and 955,376 shares of United Pan-European Communications,
N.V., a company that is 60% owned by UnitedGlobalCom, Inc.

         Effective July 30, 1999, the Company acquired the 54.9% of the
outstanding capital stock of Raystay Co. ("Raystay") which the Company did not
already own. In the transaction, the Company paid approximately $104.0 million,
which amount included the repayment of all of Raystay's existing indebtedness.
The acquisition was funded by borrowings under the Bank Credit Facility.

                                      -21-

         On May 4, 1999, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Merger ("Merger Agreement") with AT&T Corp. and its subsidiary, AT&T LCI Inc.
The Merger Agreement provides that the Company will merge with and into AT&T LCI
Inc. ("Surviving Corporation"). The Surviving Corporation will be a wholly-owned
subsidiary of AT&T Corp. and will succeed to all of the rights and obligations
of the Company. The completion of the merger is subject to the receipt of
necessary governmental approvals, the consent of the Company's lenders under its
Bank Credit Facility and the receipt by AT&T and the Company of opinions
concerning the tax treatment of the merger. The transaction is expected to close
before the end of 1999 and must close before March 31, 2000 (which date may be
extended to June 30, 2000 under certain conditions). If the merger is terminated
by the Company under specified conditions, the Company may require AT&T to
contribute all cable television systems it owns which are located within 35
miles of the Company's cable television systems, subject to certain conditions.


Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure

         The Year 2000 issue exists because many computer systems and
applications currently use two-digit date fields to designate a year. As a
result, on or near the change of the century, date-sensitive systems may
recognize the Year 2000 as 1900, or not at all, which may cause systems to fail
or process financial and operational information incorrectly.

         The Company has developed plans to address its Year 2000 issues. The
plans are designed to encompass all businesses of the Company including both
internal and external interfaces to vendors. The plans address three broad
areas: (1) internal information technology systems - including financial and
operational application systems, computer hardware and systems software and
communication systems; (2) non-information technology systems - such as building
systems, headend devices and other devices with embedded computer chips; and (3)
third party compliance - which addresses Year 2000 compliance efforts of key
vendors and suppliers. The project plans consist of the following phases:

         1) Organizational awareness - general awareness of the Year 2000
            issues, which has been completed, and ongoing communication of Year
            2000 project status.
         2) Inventory of current applications - which has been completed.
         3) Risk assessment of inventoried systems, with identification of
            mission-critical systems.
         4) Replacement/remediation of systems.
         5) Year 2000 testing and conversion of systems.
         6) Contingency planning.

         Program management offices, staffed with business unit personnel have
been established to address Year 2000 issues. These offices report to an
Executive Steering Committee, which is responsible for the Company's Year 2000
program. This Committee was formed in the spring of 1998 to review and monitor
the Company's Year 2000 program. It is made up of members of Senior Management
responsible for various areas of the Company's business. The Committee meets
regularly to review corporate-wide Year 2000 issues and progress.

         Internal information technology systems. As of October 1998 the
inventory for mission-critical systems had been substantially completed. The
risk assessment phase is in process in parallel with systems
replacement/remediation, with target completion dates ranging from March 1999
through September 1999. Testing and conversion plans have been, or are currently
being, developed and implemented. The Company expects that mission-critical
internal systems will be Year 2000 compliant by September 1999. The Company also
expects to complete testing of mission critical external interfaces by September
1999. Based on the current status of project plans, the Company believes that
Year 2000 events caused by the Company's internal financial and operational
systems would not have a material adverse impact on the Company's operations or
financial condition.

         Non-information technology systems. The risk assessment phase is
currently in process. Based on the results of these phases,
replacement/remediation plans will be developed for mission-critical equipment
and facilities. These plans are expected to be implemented by September 1999.
Given the nature of this Company's business units, the Company believes that any
events caused by Year 2000 failures of non-information technology systems would
be short-term in nature and would not have a material adverse impact on the
Company's operations or financial condition.

                                      -22-
<PAGE>


         Third party compliance. The Company has identified, and initiated
communications with, key third party suppliers and customers to determine
potential exposure to these third parties' failure to remediate their own Year
2000 issues. The Company expects to complete its third party reviews by
September 1999 and will develop contingency plans to address potential third
party Year 2000 failures. However, an extended outage by utilities (electric,
water, telephone, etc.), key third-party suppliers or financial institutions,
could have material adverse impacts on the Company's operations and financial
condition.


Contingency Plans

         Company resources to date have been focused primarily on Year 2000
remediation. The Company maintains contingency plans for computer failures,
power outages, natural disasters, etc. Year 2000 contingency plans for
mission-critical systems, in the areas discussed above, will be developed and
integrated with the existing contingency plans where appropriate by September
1999.


Costs

         The Company currently estimates spending approximately $5.0 million,
including internal costs, to complete its Year 2000 compliance program,
including approximately $1.2 million that has been expended through June 30,
1999. Year 2000 costs related to systems or equipment replacement are
capitalized in accordance with the Company's accounting policies.
Year 2000 remediation costs are expensed as incurred.

         The Company's ability to achieve Year 2000 compliance, the level of
costs associated therewith and the resultant impact on operations and financial
condition could be adversely impacted by, among other things, the availability
and cost of applicable resources, vendors' ability to modify proprietary
software, and unanticipated problems identified in the ongoing compliance
program.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements

         The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has recently issued
SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
("SFAS No. 133"). SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards
for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in
other contracts, and for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 is effective for
fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. The Company has
not yet adopted SFAS No. 133. The adoption of SFAS No. 133 is not expected to
have a significant impact on the Company's financial statement disclosures.

         The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("AICPA")
recently issued Statement of Position 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of
Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use" ("SOP 98-1"). SOP 98-1
defines which costs of computer software developed or obtained for internal use
are capital and which costs are expenses. SOP 98-1 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1998. Effective January 1, 1999, the Company
adopted SOP 98-1. The adoption of SOP 98-1 did not have a significant impact on
the Company's consolidated financial statements and related footnotes.

         The AICPA recently issued Statement of Position 98-5, "Reporting on the
Costs of Start-Up Activities" ("SOP 98-5"). SOP 98-5 requires that entities
expense start-up costs and organization costs as they are incurred. SOP 98-5 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. Effective January
1, 1999, the Company adopted SOP 98-5. The adoption of SOP 98-5 did not have a
significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and the
related footnotes.

Inflation

         The net impact of inflation on operations has not been material in the
last three years due to the relatively low rates of inflation during this
period. If the rate of inflation increases the Company may increase customer
rates to keep pace with the increase in inflation, although there may be timing
delays.
