Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. General

   A.  The financial  information  included herein is unaudited;  however,  such
       information  has been  prepared in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
       accounting principles and reflects all adjustments,  consisting solely of
       normal  recurring  adjustments  which are, in the opinion of  management,
       necessary  for a fair  statement  of  results  for the  interim  periods.
       Operating  results for the three  months  ended March 31,  1997,  are not
       necessarily  indicative  of the results that may be expected for the year
       ended  December  31,  1997.  For  further   information,   refer  to  the
       consolidated  financial  statements and footnotes thereto included in the
       Xpedite Systems, Inc. 1996 Annual Report.

   B.  In  February  1997,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  issued
       Statement No. 128, Earnings per Share, which is required to be adopted on
       December 31, 1997.  At that time,  the Company will be required to change
       the method it currently uses to compute earnings per share and to restate
       all prior periods.  Under the new  requirements  for calculating  primary
       earnings  per  share,  the  dilutive  effect  of  stock  options  will be
       excluded.  The impact is  expected  to result in an  increase  in primary
       earnings per share for the first  quarter  ended March 31, 1997 and March
       31,  1996 of $0.01 and  $0.02  per  share,  respectively.  The  impact of
       Statement 128 on the calculation of fully diluted  earnings per share for
       these quarters is not expected to be material.

   C.  In April 1997,  the Company  acquired an additional  0.9% of the stock of
       Xpedite Systems, GmbH ("Xpedite Germany", or "XSG"), making the Company's
       total  ownership  in XSG 19.9%.  The Company has an option to purchase an
       additional 17.0% of XSG held by a significant shareholder of XSG.

ITEM 2.

   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
                                   OPERATIONS
       THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997, COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED
                                 MARCH 31, 1996

Net  revenues  increased  by 23.9% to $37.3  million for the three  months ended
March 31,  1997,  as compared  to the same  period in 1996.  For the three month
period ended March 31, 1997,  international  revenues  increased $2.7 million to
$12.6 million in net service revenues, primarily from the further expansion into
new international markets. The domestic revenues increased $4.9 million to $23.3
million,  primarily from the efforts of the Company's  expanded  domestic direct
sales force in both penetrating new markets and exploring expanded  applications
in existing markets.

Compared  to the same  periods  in 1996,  system  sales and  other net  revenues
decreased  by 26.7% to $1.3  million for the three  months ended March 31, 1997.
The  decreases  were  related to fewer sales of system  upgrades  and  expansion
equipment,  which were  partially  offset by  increased  royalty  revenues  from
affiliates.

The Company's  gross margin was 50.9% for the three months ended March 31, 1997,
and 54.1% for the same period in 1996.  Service  margins  decreased to 50.1% for
the first  three  months of 1997,  as  compared  to 54.3% for the same period in
1996. The Company has  experienced  an increase in the cost of sales  associated
with the customers acquired from Pacific Star Services Pty Limited  ("PacStar").
The Company has also identified a number of routing issues, which caused traffic
to be  delivered  at a higher rate than the best cost  available  on the Xpedite
network,  and has also  increased  certain  fixed costs  associated  with leased
lines. The Company believes that these factors reduced gross margins by at least
2% in the  first  quarter,  and is  taking  corrective  measures  to  lower  the
transmission  costs.  The Company  continues  to pursue  lower  pricing from its
carriers  and expects  pricing  improvements  in the second and third  quarters.
Margin rates on system sales and other revenues increased to 73.7% for the three
months  ended  March 31,  1997,  compared  to 51.9% for the same period in 1996,
primarily as a result of product mix.

Selling and marketing  expenses increased by 35.9% to $8.8 million for the three
months  ended March 31, 1997,  as compared to the same periods in 1996.  Selling
and marketing expenses  increased as a percentage of net revenues,  to 23.5% for
the three months  ended March 31, 1997,  from 21.4% for the same period in 1996.
The Company continues to expand its sales and marketing organization, increasing
its  direct  sales  force  to a total  of 274 at  March  31,  1997;  167 of such
salespersons  were  operating  in North  America  and 107  internationally.  The
Company has also  expanded its customer  care,  sales  support,  marketing,  and
product management functions to a total of 122 employees at March 31, 1997.

General and  administrative  expenses  increased by 3.0% to $2.1 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1997,  as compared to the same period in 1996,  due
to  expanded  administrative  support  for the  Company's  growth.  General  and
administrative  expenses as a percentage  of net revenues  decreased to 5.7% for
the three  months  ended March 31,  1997,  as  compared  with 6.8% for the three
months  ended  March  31,  1996,   primarily  resulting  from  consolidation  of
administrative and financial functions.

Research and development  expenses  decreased by 8.2% for the three months ended
March 31, 1997,  to $1.1  million,  as compared to the same period in 1996.  The
decreases  were  primarily  due to  consolidation  and  integration  of  certain
research  and  development  functions  acquired in November  1995.  Research and
development  expenses as a percentage of net revenues  decreased to 3.0% for the
three months  ended March 31,  1997,  from 4.0% for the three months ended March
31, 1996, primarily due to the increased revenue base.

                                       8

<PAGE>

Depreciation and  amortization  increased by 35.0% to $2.3 million for the three
months ended March 31,  1997,  as compared to the same period in the prior year.
The increases in depreciation  and  amortization  are attributable to additional
capital  equipment for expansion of the Company's  systems to support the growth
in  revenue,  combined  with  depreciation  and  amortization  of  tangible  and
intangible assets related to acquisitions.

As a result of the above, operating income decreased by 3.5% to $4.7 million for
the three months ended March 31, 1997, as compared with the same period in 1996.
Operating  income as a  percentage  of net  revenues  decreased to 12.6% for the
three months ended March 31, 1997,  as compared  with 16.2% for the three months
ended March 31, 1996.

Interest  expense,  net of interest  income,  decreased  to $0.6 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1997, compared to $0.9 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1996, primarily due to reduction of debt.

Income tax expense for the three months  ended March 31, 1997,  was $1.6 million
or 40% of income before income taxes, compared to 42% for the three months ended
March 31, 1996.  The effective  rates for the three months ended March 31, 1997,
and March 31, 1996,  exclusive of  amortization of costs in excess of fair value
of the  net  assets  acquired  (a  non-deductible  item),  were  38%,  and  40%,
respectively.

As a result of the factors  discussed  above, the Company's net income increased
by 1.8% to $2.4 million for the three  months ended March 31, 1997,  as compared
with $2.4 million for the comparable  period in 1996.  Based on a higher average
share count for the first quarter of 1997, net income per common share decreased
by 10.0% to $0.26,  based on 9,369,100 shares,  for the three months ended March
31,  1997,  from $0.29,  based on 8,115,000  shares,  for the three months ended
March 31, 1996.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company  entered into a credit  facility in November  1995,  consisting of a
$40.0 million term loan and a $5.0 million revolving loan. As of March 31, 1997,
the Company had $0.2 million outstanding balance on its revolving loan. The term
loan is payable in quarterly installments of $1.25 million (subsequently amended
to  $1.0  million   reflecting  the   prepayment  in  August  1996)   increasing
periodically  to $2.25 million with a final  payment in August 2001.  During the
three months ended March 31, 1997,  the Company made  principal  payments on the
term loan amounting to $1.0 million, and the balance at March 31, 1997, is $30.8
million.  The Company has other notes  payable to banks and to a former owner of
ViTel  totaling  $0.8  million  at  March  31,  1997.  In  connection  with  the
acquisition  of certain  assets  from  PosData in  September  1996,  the Company
obtained  a  $2.2  million  loan  from  the  Korean  branch  of  a  U.S.   bank,
collateralized  by a cash  deposit of the same  amount in the  domestic  branch,
which was repaid in February 1997.

At March 31, 1997,  the Company had $4.0  million in cash and cash  equivalents,
and working capital of $4.4 million.  Operations  generated $3.1 million in cash
for the three months ended March 31, 1997, compared to $2.5 million for the same
period in 1996.

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 1997,
was $2.6 million as compared with $3.1 million for the same period in 1996.  The
Company's  primary capital  expenditures are investments in computer systems and

                                       9

<PAGE>

equipment,  and telecommunications  systems. During the three months ended March
31, 1997, the Company made additional  loans to Xpedite Germany of approximately
$0.5 million.

The Company has "put" and "call" arrangements relating to the outstanding shares
of each of Xpedite  Systems,  Ltd.  ("Xpedite UK"),  Xpedite Germany and Xpedite
Systems S.A. ("Xpedite France"),  (collectively "the European Affiliates").  The
purchase  prices payable in connection with the exercise of such "put" or "call"
options is based on, among other things,  the  achievement of certain  financial
results as set forth in the put and call  agreements.  The Company has also been
granted a "special  option" to purchase  approximately  17.5% of the outstanding
shares of Xpedite Germany from a current  shareholder at a cost of approximately
$30,000.  Due to the  uncertainties  as to the  ability of each of the  European
Affiliates  to achieve or continue to achieve such  financial  results and as to
whether the  conditions  set forth in such  agreements  will be met, the Company
does not consider the exercise of these  options to be probable  during the next
twelve months.

However,  because (i) Xpedite UK has produced operating results in excess of the
minimum  earnings  required in order to enable the  exercise of the put and call
option in the  Xpedite UK  agreement,  and (ii)  Xpedite  Germany  has  recently
produced  operating  results  indicating  they may attain the  minimum  earnings
required  in order to  enable  the  exercise  of the put and call  option in the
Xpedite  Germany  agreement,  and if the  profitable  financial  performance  of
Xpedite UK and  Xpedite  Germany  continues,  it is  reasonably  likely that the
Company  could  exercise or be subject to the exercise of these options in early
1998 with  respect to Xpedite UK and  Xpedite  Germany.  Assuming  that  Xpedite
Germany  achieves  the minimum  amount of  earnings of $1.0  million (at current
exchange  rates) and utilizing the Company's  stock price and earnings at and as
of the twelve  months  ended  March 31,  1997,  the  purchase  price  payable in
connection  with the  exercise of 100% of the put option with respect to Xpedite
Germany would be approximately  $8.9 million,  after utilization of the "special
option".  The actual  amount of the purchase  price will more than likely differ
from this amount due to the  variable  factors  used to  determine  the purchase
price.

Assuming that Xpedite UK continues its current earnings trend, and utilizing the
Company's  stock price and  earnings at and as of the twelve  months ended March
31, 1997, the purchase price payable in connection  with the exercise of 100% of
the put option with respect to Xpedite UK would be approximately  $96.6 million.
The actual  amount of the purchase  price will more than likely differ from this
amount due to the variable factors used to determine the purchase price.

Xpedite France has not met the minimum amount of earnings  necessary for the put
or call option to be exercisable,  and therefore, due to the uncertainties as to
the ability of Xpedite France to achieve the required  financial  results in the
future,  and the uncertainty of future events, the Company does not consider the
exercise  of these  options  to be  probable  during the next  eighteen  months.
However, assuming that Xpedite France achieves the minimum amount of earnings of
$1.0 million (at current exchange rates) and utilizing the Company's stock price
and earnings at and as of the twelve  months ended March 31, 1997,  the purchase
price payable in connection with the exercise of 100% of the put option would be
approximately  $12.2 million.  The actual amount of the purchase price will more
than  likely  differ  from  this  amount  due to the  variable  factors  used to
determine the purchase price.

If exercised, the purchase price payable in connection with the "put" and "call"
options  is payable  in cash or any  negotiable  security,  Common  Stock,  or a
combination of cash, Common Stock, or any negotiable security,  at the Company's
option.  In addition to the  foregoing,  the Company may purchase one or more of
the European Affiliates  pursuant to negotiations with the stockholders  thereof
(a "Negotiated Purchase"). The Company has had preliminary discussions with each
of the European Affiliates about this possibility.

                                       10

<PAGE>

The Company believes that its sources of capital, including internally generated
funds,  and cash available  pursuant to its Credit  Facility will be adequate to
satisfy its debt requirements and anticipated  capital needs for the next twelve
months.   However,   the  Company  may  elect  to  finance  its  future  capital
requirements  through  additional  equity  or debt  financing.  Further,  if the
Company  exercises,  or is subject to the  exercise,  of the  options  described
above,  or  purchases  one or  more of the  European  Affiliates  pursuant  to a
Negotiated  Purchase,  and if the  Company  elects to finance  such  exercise or
purchase  using cash,  then the  Company  may be  required to obtain  additional
equity or debt financing. The Company cannot predict whether or not the purchase
of all or any  portion  of one or more of the  European  Affiliates  will have a
dilutive effect on the Company's earnings, as such effect will be dependent upon
purchase  price paid,  the manner in which the  purchase  is financed  and other
variable factors.
