The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
by the Company and include the accounts of its subsidiaries. These statements
reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of
financial results for the three month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
audited financial statements have been omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and the
notes thereto for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 and Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and in the Company's Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1997. The results of operations for the three month
periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the
results for the full year.


1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Use of Estimates
----------------

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.
Although these estimates are based on management's knowledge of current events
and actions it may undertake in the future, they may ultimately differ from
actual results.


Reclassification
----------------

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform to the 1997 presentation.


3. LINE-OF-CREDIT
   --------------

On September 30, 1996, the Company entered into a $25 million revolving line of
credit with NationsBank, N.A. (the "1996 Credit Agreement"), with provisions to
convert up to $17.5 million of the line of credit to term loans. The terms of
the agreement called for the Company to pay interest on a graduated scale based
on NationsBank, N.A.'s Corporate Base Rate ("CBR"), which was 8.50% on December
31, 1997. The interest rate was indexed based on the Company's ratio of funded
debt to EBITDA as defined in the 1996 Credit Agreement and adjusted based on
market interest rates for CBR and LIBOR. The maturity date of the revolving
portion of the credit facility was September 30, 2001. Principal outstanding on
each term loan under the convertible portion of the credit facility was
scheduled to be payable in 12 to 20 quarterly installments with the last
installment due no later than September 30, 2003.

In connection with the acquisition of Communications Central Inc., the Company
entered into a credit agreement dated as of February 3, 1998, with NationsBank,
N.A., as Administrative Agent, SunTrust Bank, Tampa Bay, as Documentation Agent,
LaSalle National Bank, as Co-Agent, and other lenders (the "Lenders"), pursuant
to which the Lenders made available to the Company an initial revolving loan
commitment (the "Revolving Credit Facility") of $15 million, including a $5.0
million sublimit available for the issuance of letters of credit, and a term
commitment (the "Term Loan Facility") of $110 million (the "1998 Credit
Agreement"). The balance outstanding of $8.7 million outstanding on the 1996
Credit Agreement was refinanced simultaneously with the signing of the 1998
Credit Agreement and is included as part of the balances outstanding on the 1998
Credit Agreement.

The loans outstanding under the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit
Facility bear interest, at the Company's option, equal to (i) the Base Rate (as
defined in the 1998 Credit Agreement ) plus a margin of 1.25% or (ii) LIBOR (as
defined in the 1998 Credit Agreement), based on one, two, three or six month
periods, plus a margin of 2.75%, with the applicable margins for the Term Loan
Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility being subject to reductions based on
the Company's ratio of Funded Debt (as defined in the 1998 Credit Agreement) to
EBITDA (as defined in the 1998 Credit Agreement) at 


                                       6
<PAGE>
 
given times. As of May 14, 1998, the interest rates on the Term Loan Facility
and on a $1.4 million and an $8.0 million note outstanding under the Revolving
Credit Facility were 8.47%, 9.75% and 8.44%, respectively.

Amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Facility are required to be repaid in
consecutive quarterly installments, the first three of which (each in the
aggregate principal amount of approximately $3.33 million) are due on the last
day of each of the first three calendar quarters commencing with the quarter
ending June 30, 1998. The next 20 installments in the aggregate principal amount
of $5.0 million each will be due on the last day of each calendar quarter
commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 1999. The final installment under
the Term Loan Facility will be payable on February 3, 2004. The Revolving Credit
Facility will mature on February 3, 2004. As of May 14, 1998, $110.0 million in
outstanding principal amount had been borrowed under the Term Loan Facility and
$9.5 million in outstanding principal amount had been borrowed under the
Revolving Credit Facility.

Loans under the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility may be
prepaid at any time and are subject to certain mandatory prepayments in an
amount equal to (i) 100% of the net proceeds in excess of $1.0 million received
from the issuance of equity by the Company or its subsidiaries, (ii) 100% of the
net proceeds from certain asset sales in excess of $0.5 million in any calendar
year and (iii) 50% (75% for the Company's 1998 fiscal year) of the Company's
Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the 1998 Credit Agreement) if the ratio of its
Funded Debt to EBITDA as of the last day of the fiscal year is less than 2.5 to
1.0. Prepayments under the Revolving Loan Facility will be applied first to
reduce Base Rate loans until they are reduced to zero and then to reduce LIBOR
loans.

The Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed, on a
joint and several basis, by the Company and certain of the direct and indirect
subsidiaries of the Company. The 1998 Credit Agreement contains representations
and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default
customary for similar financings.

As of March 31, 1998, the company was in violation of the covenant contained in
the 1998 Credit Agreement which required the ratio of funded debt to EBITDA for
the trailing twelve month period to be at or below 5.00 to 1.  The Company has
been granted a waiver of this requirement by the Lenders through June 29, 1998.
The Company and the Lenders have also agreed to amend the 1998 Credit Agreement
by extending the deadline for delivery of certain documents which were not
available for delivery to the Lenders by the original due dates.

5. PROVISION FOR DIAL-AROUND COMPENSATION
   --------------------------------------

On September 20, 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted rules
in a docket entitled In the Matter of Implementation of the Payphone
Reclassification and Compensation Provisions of the Telecommunications Act of
1996, FCC 96-388 (the 1996 Payphone Order), implementing the payphone provisions
of Section 276 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the Telcom Act). The 1996
Payphone Order, which became effective November 7, 1996, initially mandated 
dial-around compensation for both access code calls and 800 subscriber calls at
a flat rate of $45.85 per payphone per month (131 calls multiplied by $0.35 per
call). Commencing October 7, 1997, and ending October 6, 1998 the $45.85 per
payphone per month rate was to transition to a per-call system at the rate of
$0.35 per call. Several parties filed petitions for judicial review of certain
of the FCC regulations including the dial-around compensation rate. On July 1,
1997, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit (the Court)
responded to appeals related to the 1996 Payphone Order by remanding certain
issues to the FCC for reconsideration. These issues included, among other
things, the manner in which the FCC established the dial-around compensation for
800 subscriber and access code calls, the manner in which the FCC established
the interim dial-around compensation plan and the basis upon which interexchange
carriers (IXCs) would be required to compensate payphone service providers
(PSPs). The Court remanded the issue to the FCC for further consideration, and
clarified on September 16, 1997, that it had vacated certain portions of the
FCC's 1996 Payphone Order, including the dial-around compensation rate.
Specifically, the Court determined that the FCC did not adequately justify (i)
the per-call compensation rate for 800 subscriber and access code calls at the
deregulated local coin rate of $0.35, because it did not sufficiently justify
its conclusion that the costs of local coin calls are similar to those of 800
subscriber and access code calls; and (ii) the allocation of the payment
obligation among the IXCs for the period from November 7, 1996, through October
6, 1997.

In accordance with the Court's mandate, on October 9, 1997, the FCC adopted and
released its Second Report and Order in the same docket, FCC 97-371 (the 1997
Payphone Order). This order addressed the per-call compensation rate for 800
subscriber and access code calls that originate from payphones in light of the
decision of the Court which vacated and remanded certain portions of the FCC's
1996 Payphone Order. The FCC concluded that the rate for per-call compensation
for 800 subscriber and access code


                                       8


<PAGE>
 
calls from payphones is the deregulated local coin rate adjusted for certain
cost differences. Accordingly, the FCC established a rate of $0.284 ($0.35 -
$0.066) per call for the first two years of per-call compensation (October 7,
1997, through October 6, 1999). The IXCs are required to pay this per-call
amount to PSPs, including the Company, beginning October 7, 1997. After the
first two years of per-call compensation, the market-based local coin rate,
adjusted for certain costs defined by the FCC as $0.066 per call, is the
surrogate for the per-call rate for 800 subscriber and access code calls. These
new rule provisions were made effective as of October 7, 1997. For the period
October 7, 1997, through March 31, 1998, the Company has recorded dial-around
compensation at a rate of $0.284 multiplied by 131 calls or $37.20 per payphone
per month. In addition, the 1997 Payphone Order tentatively concluded that the
same $0.284 per-call rate adopted on a going-forward basis should also govern
compensation obligations during the period from November 7, 1996, through
October 6, 1997, and that PSPs are entitled to compensation for all access code
and 800 subscriber calls during the period. The FCC stated that the manner in
which the payment obligation of the IXCs for the period from November 7, 1996,
through October 6, 1997, will be allocated among the IXCs will be addressed in a
subsequent order.

Based on the FCC's tentative conclusion in the 1997 Payphone Order, the Company
has adjusted the amounts of dial-around compensation previously recorded related
to the period from November 7, 1996, through June 30, 1997, from the initial
$45.85 rate to $37.20 ($0.284 per call multiplied by 131 calls). For the period
from July 1, 1997, through October 6, 1997, the Company has recorded dial-around
compensation at the rate of $37.20 per payphone per month.

The Company's counsel, Rammelkamp, Bradney, Kuster, Fritsche & Lindsay, P.C., is
of the opinion that the Company is legally entitled to fair compensation under
the Telcom Act for dial-around calls the Company delivered to any carrier during
the period from November 7, 1996, through October 6, 1997. Based on the
information available, the Company believes that the minimum amount it is
entitled to as fair compensation under the Telcom Act for the period from
November 7, 1996, through October 6, 1997, is $37.20 per payphone per month.

While the amount of $0.284 per call constitutes the Company's position of the
appropriate level of fair compensation, certain IXCs have asserted in the past,
are asserting and are expected to assert in the future that the appropriate
level of fair compensation should be lower than $0.284 per call. Various parties
have appealed certain aspects of the 1997 payphone Order to the Court of Appeals
for the District of Columbia. The issues being appealed include, but are not
limited to, the costs included or excluded in the FCC's determination of the
appropriate per-call dial-around compensation rate. If the level of fair
compensation is ultimately determined to be an amount less than $0.284 per call,
such determination could result in a material adverse impact on the Company's
results of operations and financial position.

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
On April 3, 1998, the FCC issued a Memorandum Opinion and Order (the "1998
Payphone Order") which was made immediately effective. The 1998 Payphone Order
granted IXCs a waiver of dial-around compensation requirements to enable them to
pay per-phone compensation in lieu of per-call payments for dial-around calls
when payphone-specific coding digits are not available to track the calls as
being generated from a payphone. Payphones that are capable of providing such
digits were determined to receive compensation at a rate of $0.284 per call. For
payphones that cannot provide specific coding digits, the FCC stated that a 
flat-rate, per-phone payment must be made by calculating the average monthly
number of dial-around calls received from Regional Bell Operating Company
("RBOC") payphones that can provide the coding digits. The average number of
RBOC payphones providing coding digits as of the first of each month will be
added together for the months of October 1997 through March 1998 and divided by
six to calculate an average number of RBOC payphones. The average number of
calls per month is then divided by the average number of phones per month to
arrive at an average call volume from RBOC payphones. This average multiplied by
$0.284 determines the amount of monthly flat-rate, per-phone compensation for
payphones that cannot supply payphone-specific coding digits. A six-month
average will be used to calculate such compensation amounts for the fourth
quarter of 1997 and first quarter 1998 payments. Beginning in the second quarter
of 1998, the individual monthly average will be used for the month in which
compensation is payable.

The FCC further determined that this weighted call average for per-phone
compensation was too high for payphones in non-equal access areas or small to
mid-sized LEC territories where payphone-specific coding digits are not
currently available and the LEC is precluded recovery of the upgrade cost. In
these areas, payers were ordered to compensate PSPs based on the weighted
average of call volumes submitted on the record. Based on data from only two
companies, the FCC found that 16 calls per payphone per month was the
appropriate compensation level. However, the FCC invited parties to submit
additional information to enable it to further evaluate its tentative
conclusions.

At this time, the Company is not able to quantify either the amount of per-phone
compensation where digits are not provided, the number of its payphones served
by non-equal access switches, or the number of equal access switches in small
and mid-sized LEC territories. Under the 1998 Payphone Order, for each such
payphone served by a non-equal access switch or in a small or mid-sized LEC
territory, the Company could experience a reduction in dial-around compensation.
Based on currently available information, the Company believes that the number
of such payphones is less than 3% of its payphone base and any related reduction
would not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition. Further,
upon the FCC's review of additional data and reconsideration of the 1998
Payphone Order, the compensation methodologies described above could be revised.

The FCC provided that the 1998 Payphone Order was applicable only to the period
beginning October 7, 1997 and not to the period November 6, 1996 to October 6,
1997.

The FCC indicated that issues related to this period would be addressed
in a subsequent order.


6.  COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
    --------------------

In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income"
which establishes standards for reporting and disclosure of comprehensive income
and its components.  For the periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997,
comprehensive income equals net income.

Options to purchase 500,350 shares of common stock at a weighted average
purchase price of $14.22 per share were outstanding during the three months
ended March 31, 1998 but were not included in the computation of diluted

8.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
    -----------------

On April 22, 1998, the Company adopted a shareholder rights plan pursuant to a
Rights Agreement between the Company and ChaseMellon Shareholder Services,
L.L.C., as Rights Agent (the "Rights Agreement").  Pursuant to the Rights
Agreement, the Company declared a dividend to holders of record of the Common
Stock as of May 4, 1998 of one right per share of Common Stock.  Each right is
exercisable for one one-thousandth of a share of a new series of junior
participating preferred stock for an exercise price of $100.  The rights contain
provisions which are intended to protect the Company's shareholders in the event
of an unsolicited attempt to acquire the Company at an unfair price.

On May 14, 1998, the Company signed an agreement with an affiliate of Equity
Group Investments, Inc. ("EGI"), a privately-held investment company in which
the EGI affiliate will invest $28 million in the Company as payment for 1.0
million shares of 


                                      11


<PAGE>
 
newly issued common stock and warrants to purchase an additional 218,750 shares
of common stock, which will be exercisable at a price of $32.00 per share. The
transaction is expected to be consummated following a shareholder vote at the
Company's 1998 annual stockholders' meeting. The Company intends to use the net
proceeds of the sale to prepay a portion of its credit facility.

               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                      CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


     The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing
elsewhere herein.

     Certain of the statements contained below are forward-looking statements
(rather than historical facts) that are subject to risks and uncertainties that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the
forward-looking statements.


General

     During the first quarter of 1998, the Company derived its revenues from two
principal sources: coin calls and non-coin calls. Coin calls represent calls
paid for by callers with coins deposited in the payphone. Coin call revenues are
recorded in the amount of coins collected from the payphones.

     Non-coin calls made from the Company's payphones generate revenues in an
amount that depends upon whether the Company or a long distance company handles
the call. If the non-coin call is handled by the Company through its switch or
an "unbundled" services arrangement, the Company recognizes non-coin revenues
equal to the total amount charged for the call. If the non-coin call is handled
by a long distance company, the Company generally recognizes revenues in an
amount equal to the commission on that call paid to the Company by the long
distance company. Under an unbundled services arrangement, the Company performs
certain functions necessary to service non-coin calls, uses the long distance
company's switching equipment and its other services on an as-needed basis, and
pays the long distance company on an unbundled basis for the operator services
actually used to complete these calls.

     The Company also recognizes non-coin revenues from calls that are dialed
from its payphones to gain access to a long distance company other than the one
pre-programmed into the telephone; this is commonly referred to as "dial-around"
access. The Company also derives non-coin revenue from certain LECs for
intraLATA non-coin calls.

     The principal costs related to the ongoing operation of the Company's
payphones include telephone charges, commissions, and service, maintenance and
network costs. Telephone charges consist of payments made by the Company to LECs
and long distance carriers for access charges and use of their networks.
Commission expense represents payments to owners of locations where the
Company's payphones are installed. Service, maintenance and network costs
represent the cost of servicing and maintaining the payphones on an ongoing
basis, costs related to the operation of the Company's switch and, in connection
with unbundled services arrangements, the fees paid for those services.

Regulatory Impact on Revenue

Local Coin Rates

     In ensuring "fair compensation" for all calls, the FCC previously
determined that local coin rates from payphones should be generally deregulated
by October 7, 1997, but provided for possible modifications or exemptions from
deregulation upon a detailed showing by an individual state that there are
market failures within the state that would not allow market-based rates to
develop. On July 1, 1997, a federal court issued an order which upheld the FCC's
authority to deregulate local coin call rates. In accordance with the FCC's
ruling and the court order, certain LECs and independent payphone service
providers, including the Company, began to change charges for local coin calls
from $.25 to $.35. However, given the lack of direction on the part of the FCC
on specific requirements for obtaining a state exemption, the Company's
inability to predict the responses of individual states or the market, and the
Company's inability to provide assurance that deregulation, if and where
implemented, will lead to higher local coin call rates, the Company is unable to
predict the ultimate impact on its operations of local coin rate deregulation.

Dial Around Compensation

     On September 20, 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted
rules in a docket entitled In the Matter of Implementation of the Payphone
Reclassification and Compensation Provisions of the Telecommunications Act of
1996, FCC 96-388 (the 1996 Payphone Order), implementing the payphone provisions
of Section 276 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the Telcom Act). The 1996
Payphone Order, which became effective November 7, 1996, initially mandated 
dial-around compensation for both access code calls and 800 subscriber calls at
a flat rate of $45.85 per payphone per month (131 calls multiplied by $0.35 per
call). Commencing October 7, 1997, and ending October 6, 1998 the $45.85 per
payphone per month rate was to transition to a per-call system at the rate of
$0.35 per call. Several parties filed petitions for judicial review of certain
of the FCC regulations including the dial-around compensation rate. On July 1,
1997, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit (the Court)
responded to appeals related to the 1996 Payphone Order by remanding certain
issues to the FCC for reconsideration. These issues included, among other
things, the manner in which the FCC established the dial-around compensation for
800 subscriber and access code calls, the manner in which the FCC established
the interim dial-around compensation plan and the basis upon which interexchange
carriers (IXCs) would be required to compensate payphone service providers
(PSPs). The Court remanded the issue to the FCC for further consideration, and
clarified on September 16, 1997, that it had vacated certain portions of the
FCC's 1996 Payphone Order, including the dial-around compensation rate.
Specifically, the Court determined that the FCC did not adequately justify (i)
the per-call compensation rate for 800 subscriber and access

                                      14
<PAGE>
 
code calls at the deregulated local coin rate of $0.35, because it did not
sufficiently justify its conclusion that the costs of local coin calls are
similar to those of 800 subscriber and access code calls; and (ii) the
allocation of the payment obligation among the IXCs for the period from November
7, 1996, through October 6, 1997.

     In accordance with the Court's mandate, on October 9, 1997, the FCC adopted
and released its Second Report and Order in the same docket, FCC 97-371 (the
1997 Payphone Order). This order addressed the per-call compensation rate for
800 subscriber and access code calls that originate from payphones in light of
the decision of the Court which vacated and remanded certain portions of the
FCC's 1996 Payphone Order. The FCC concluded that the rate for per-call
compensation for 800 subscriber and access code calls from payphones is the
deregulated local coin rate adjusted for certain cost differences. Accordingly,
the FCC established a rate of $0.284 ($0.35 - $0.066) per call for the first two
years of per-call compensation (October 7, 1997, through October 6, 1999). The
IXCs are required to pay this per-call amount to PSPs, including the Company,
beginning October 7, 1997. After the first two years of per-call compensation,
the market-based local coin rate, adjusted for certain costs defined by the FCC
as $0.066 per call, is the surrogate for the per-call rate for 800 subscriber
and access code calls. These new rule provisions were made effective as of
October 7, 1997. For the period October 7, 1997, through March 31, 1998, the
Company has recorded dial-around compensation at a rate of $0.284 multiplied by
131 calls or $37.20 per payphone per month. In addition, the 1997 Payphone Order
tentatively concluded that the same $0.284 per-call rate adopted on a going-
forward basis should also govern compensation obligations during the period from
November 7, 1996, through October 6, 1997, and that PSPs are entitled to
compensation for all access code and 800 subscriber calls during the period. The
FCC stated that the manner in which the payment obligation of the IXCs for the
period from November 7, 1996, through October 6, 1997, will be allocated among
the IXCs will be addressed in a subsequent order.

     Based on the FCC's tentative conclusion in the 1997 Payphone Order, the
Company has adjusted the amounts of dial-around compensation previously recorded
related to the period from November 7, 1996, through June 30, 1997, from the
initial $45.85 rate to $37.20 ($0.284 per call multiplied by 131 calls). For the
period from July 1, 1997, through October 6, 1997, the Company has recorded 
dial-around compensation at the rate of $37.20 per payphone per month.

     The Company's counsel, Rammelkamp, Bradney, Kuster, Fritsche & Lindsay,
P.C., is of the opinion that the Company is legally entitled to fair
compensation under the Telcom Act for dial-around calls the Company delivered to
any carrier during the period from November 7, 1996, through October 6, 1997.
Based on the information available, the Company believes that the minimum amount
it is entitled to as fair compensation under the Telcom Act for the period from
November 7, 1996, through October 6, 1997, is $37.20 per payphone per month.

                                      15
<PAGE>
 
     While the amount of $0.284 per call constitutes the Company's position of
the appropriate level of fair compensation, certain IXCs have asserted in the
past, are asserting and are expected to assert in the future that the
appropriate level of fair compensation should be lower than $0.284 per call.
Various parties have appealed certain aspects of the 1997 payphone Order to the
Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. The issues being appealed
include, but are not limited to, the costs included or excluded in the FCC's
determination of the appropriate per-call dial-around compensation rate. If the
level of fair compensation is ultimately determined to be an amount less than
$0.284 per call, such determination could result in a material adverse impact on
the Company's results of operations and financial position.

     On April 3, 1998, the FCC issued a Memorandum Opinion and Order (the "1998
Payphone Order") which was made immediately effective. The 1998 Payphone Order
granted IXCs a waiver of dial-around compensation requirements to enable them to
pay per-phone compensation in lieu of per-call payments for dial-around calls
when payphone-specific coding digits are not available to track the calls as
being generated from a payphone. Payphones that are capable of providing such
digits were determined to receive compensation at a rate of $0.284 per call. For
payphones that cannot provide specific coding digits, the FCC stated that a 
flat-rate, per-phone payment must be made by calculating the average monthly
number of dial-around calls received from Regional Bell Operating Company
("RBOC") payphones that can provide the coding digits. The average number of
RBOC payphones providing coding digits as of the first of each month will be
added together for the months of October 1997 through March 1998 and divided by
six to calculate an average number of RBOC payphones. The average number of
calls per month is then divided by the average number of phones per month to
arrive at an average call volume from RBOC payphones. This average multiplied by
$0.284 determines the amount of monthly flat-rate, per-phone compensation for
payphones that cannot supply payphone-specific coding digits. A six-month
average will be used to calculate such compensation amounts for the fourth
quarter of 1997 and first quarter 1998 payments. Beginning in the second quarter
of 1998, the individual monthly average will be used for the month in which
compensation is payable.

     The FCC further determined that this weighted call average for per-phone
compensation was too high for payphones in non-equal access areas or small to
mid-sized LEC territories where payphone-specific coding digits are not
currently available and the LEC is precluded recovery of the upgrade cost. In
these areas, payers were ordered to compensate PSPs based on the weighted
average of call volumes submitted on the record. Based on data from only two
companies, the FCC found that 16 calls per payphone per month was the
appropriate compensation level. However, the FCC invited parties to submit
additional information to enable it to further evaluate its tentative
conclusions.

     At this time, the Company is not able to quantify either the amount of per-
phone compensation where digits are not provided, the number of its payphones
served by non-equal access switches, or the number of equal access switches in
small and mid-sized LEC territories. Under the 1998 Payphone Order, for each
such payphone served by a

                                      16
<PAGE>
 
non-equal access switch or in a small or mid-sized LEC territory, the Company
could experience a reduction in dial-around compensation. Based on currently
available information, the Company believes that the number of such payphones is
less than 3% of its payphone base and any related reduction would not have a
material adverse effect on its financial condition. Further, upon the FCC's
review of additional data and reconsideration of the 1998 Payphone Order, the
compensation methodologies described above could be revised.

     The FCC provided that the 1998 Payphone Order was applicable only to the
period beginning October 7, 1997 and not to the period November 6, 1996 to
October 6, 1997. The FCC indicated that issues related to this period would be
addressed in a subsequent order.

     The payment levels for dial-around calls prescribed in the 1996, 1997 and
1998 Payphone Orders significantly increase dial-around compensation revenues to
the Company over the levels received prior to implementation of the
Telecommunications Act. However, market forces and factors outside the Company's
control could significantly affect these revenue increases. These factors
include the following: (i) resolution by the FCC of the method of allocating the
initial interim period flat-rate assessment among the IXCs and the number of
calls to be used in determining the amount of the assessment, (ii) the
resolution of the legal appeals by both the IXCs and representatives of the PSPs
of various aspects of the 1997 Payphone Order, (iii) the possibility of other
litigation seeking to modify or overturn the 1997 Payphone Order or portions
thereof, (iv) pending litigation in the Federal courts concerning the
constitutionality or validity of the 1996 Telecommunications Act, and (v) the
IXCs' reaction to the FCC's recognition that existing regulations do not
prohibit an IXC from blocking 800 subscriber numbers from payphones in order to
avoid paying per-call compensation on such calls.

Three Months Ended March 31, 1998 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1997

     For the three months ended March 31, 1998, total revenues increased
approximately $8.6 million, or 80.7%, from approximately $10.7 million in the
three months ended March 31, 1997 to approximately $19.3 million in the same
period of 1998. This growth was primarily attributable to an increase from
15,554 payphones on March 31, 1997 to 38,588 payphones on March 31, 1998, an
increase of 23,034 payphones or 148.1%. The increase in the number of installed
payphones was due primarily to the acquisition of Communications Central Inc. on
February 3, 1998 (the "CCI Acquisition"), which added approximately 19,500
payphones to the Company's network. During 1997 and the first quarter of 1998,
the Company also added 2,861 payphones to its network through other
acquisitions, and approximately 700 payphones through internal sales growth, net
of removals.

                                      17
<PAGE>

     Coin call revenues increased approximately $6.2 million, or 114.8%,
increasing from approximately $5.4 million in the first quarter of 1997, to
approximately $11.5 million in the first quarter of 1998. The growth in coin
income was driven primarily by growth in the number of installed payphones
primarily due to the CCI Acquisition, other acquisitions and the installation of
new payphones. In accordance with the new FCC rules, certain LECs and
independent payphone service providers, including the Company, began to increase
rates for local coin calls from $.25 to $.35 commencing October 7, 1997. While
the Company has increased the local coin call rate on its payphones, it has
experienced lower volumes of local coin calls originating from its payphones in
the fourth quarter of 1997 and the first quarter of 1998.

     Non-coin call revenues increased approximately $2.4 million or 50.1%,
rising from approximately $5.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 1997,
to approximately $7.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 1998. The
growth in non-coin revenues was primarily due to an increase in the number of
installed payphones. As a result of the 1997 Payphone Order, the Company
recorded dial-around compensation in the first quarter of 1998 at a rate of
$37.20 per phone per month. Dial-around compensation for the first quarter of
1997 was recorded at a rate of $45.85 per phone per month, which reflected
provisions of the 1996 Payphone Order which was in effect during the period. Had
the Company restated the three-month period ended March 31, 1997 to reflect the
1998 presentation, growth in non-coin revenues would have been approximately
$400,000 higher. While non-coin call revenues increased over the prior year, the
Company continued to experience lower volumes of calls per payphone routed
through its long distance network due to an increase in the number of dial-
around calls placed from its payphones.

     Telephone charges rose approximately $2.2 million, or 100.4% , increasing
from approximately $2.3 million in 1997 to approximately $4.5 million in the
three months ended March 31, 1998. The increase was primarily due to the
increase in the number of installed payphones. The Company's telephone charges
increased at a slower rate than the 148.1% increase in the number of installed
payphones due to more favorable contracts with Local Exchange Carriers and
Competitive Local Exchange Carriers for local line access. The Company's average
monthly telephone charge on a per phone basis decreased from $48.54 in 1997 to
$47.14 in 1998. The company is currently negotiating contracts that it believes
will further reduce local access charges on a per-phone basis, but is unable to
estimate the impact of further telephone charge reductions at this time.

     Commissions rose approximately $1.8 million, or 139.3%, increasing from
approximately $1.3 million in the first quarter of 1997 to approximately $3.1
million in the three months ended March 31, 1998. The increase was primarily due
to the increase in the number of installed payphones.  Commissions as a
percentage of revenues increased from 12.3% in the three months ended March 31,
1997 to 16.3% of revenues in the first quarter of 1998, reflecting a higher
concentration of national and regional payphone contracts (contracts
representing 50 or more payphones) as a result of the CCI Acquisition.

                                       18
<PAGE>
 
     Service, maintenance and network costs increased approximately $1.9
million, or 80.6%, increasing from approximately $2.3 million in the first
quarter of 1997 to approximately $4.1 million in the prior year period. The
increase was primarily due to the increase in the number of installed payphones.
The Company's average monthly service, maintenance and network costs on a per
phone basis decreased from $48.08 in the first quarter of 1997 to $42.77 in the
three months ended March 31, 1998. The decrease in service, maintenance and
network costs on a per-phone basis was primarily attributable to increasing
operating efficiencies achieved through increasing density in the Company's
payphone routes resulting from the CCI Acquisition and expansion of its
installed base of payphones.

     Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses increased
approximately $4.5 million, or 150.1%, from the prior year, increasing from
approximately $3.0 million in 1997, to approximately $7.5 million in 1998. The
increase was partially attributable to higher depreciation and amortization
expense, which rose approximately $2.3 million or 252.4%, from the prior year,
primarily reflecting depreciation and amortization expense related to the CCI
Acquisition. The Company incurred approximately $1.7 million in additional SG&A
expenses associated with the operation of CCI administrative and field office
facilities, and approximately $0.5 million in additional SG&A expenses related
to acquisitions made and branch office facilities opened during 1997. The
Company is currently integrating its operations with the operations of CCI and
will begin eliminating redundant personnel and office facilities in the second
quarter of 1998. The Company also recognized a non-recurring charge of
approximately $0.83 million in the first quarter of 1998 related to corporate
restructuring resulting from the CCI Acquisition. The restructuring charge
includes reserves of approximately $0.3 million for lease termination costs,
$0.2 million for severance pay and $0.33 million for facility closing costs.

     Interest and other income increased approximately $90,000 or 123.4% in the
first quarter of 1998 over the prior-year period, rising from approximately
$73,000 in 1997 to approximately $163,000 in 1998. This increase resulted
primarily from an increase in interest income resulting from higher cash
balances in the Company's interest-bearing accounts in the first quarter of 1998
over the first quarter of 1997. Interest expense in the three months ended March
31, 1998 increased approximately $1.6 million, or 2,014.8%, compared to the
prior-year period, increasing from approximately $78,000 in 1997 to
approximately $1.6 million in the first quarter of 1998. This increase resulted
primarily from the incurrence of $120.0 million in indebtedness on February 3,
1998 in connection with the CCI Acquisition and refinancing of the Company's
existing credit facility.

     Net income decreased approximately $2.4 million or 218.9% from the prior-
year period, decreasing from net income of approximately $1.1 million, in the
three months ended March 31, 1997 to a net loss of approximately $1.3 million in
the first quarter of 1998. Before the effect of the non-recurring restructuring
charge of approximately $1.0 million recognized in the first quarter of 1998,
net income decreased approximately $2.0 million or 175.9% from the prior year
period, decreasing from net income of

                                       19
<PAGE>
 
approximately $1.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 1997 to a net
loss of approximately $0.9 million in the first quarter of 1998. Earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") before the effect of
the restructuring charge increased approximately $0.5 million, or 17.3%, from
approximately $2.7 million in the first quarter of 1997 to approximately $3.2
million in the first quarter of 1998. EBITDA is not determined in accordance
with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), nor, as a result, is it
included as a line item in the Company's consolidated financial statements.
EBITDA is not being presented as an alternative to GAAP operating income or cash
flows from operations being shown on the Company's statements of cash flows.
However, it is a commonly accepted measure of performance in the
telecommunications industry.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows

     As of March 31, 1998, the Company had a current ratio of 1.39 to 1, as
compared to a current ratio of 3.25 to 1 on December 31, 1997. The decrease was
primarily attributable to an increase in current maturities of long-term debt of
approximately $9.7 million related to the incurrence of $120.0 million in
indebtedness on February 3, 1998 in connection with the CCI Acquisition and
refinancing of the Company's existing credit facility.

     The Company's capital expenditures, exclusive of acquisitions, for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 were $1.1 million and $2.1 million,
respectively. The Company's capital expenditures primarily consisted of costs
associated with the installation of new payphones. In the first quarter of 1998,
the Company financed its capital expenditures and acquisitions primarily with
approximately $0.3 million in cash provided by operating activities and an
increase in long-term debt and current maturities of long term debt of
approximately $120.7 million. In the first quarter of 1997, the Company financed
its capital expenditures primarily with approximately $0.9 million in cash
provided by operating activities.

Credit Agreement

     On September 30, 1996, the Company entered into a $25 million revolving
line of credit with NationsBank, N.A. (the "1996 Credit Agreement"), with
provisions to convert up to $17.5 million of the line of credit to term loans.
The terms of the agreement called for the Company to pay interest on a graduated
scale based on NationsBank, N.A.'s Corporate Base Rate ("CBR"), which was 8.50%
on December 31, 1997. The interest rate was indexed based on the Company's ratio
of funded debt to EBITDA as defined in the 1996 Credit Agreement and adjusted
based on market interest rates for CBR and LIBOR. The maturity date of the
revolving portion of the credit facility was September 30, 2001. Principal
outstanding on each term loan under the convertible portion of the credit
facility
                                       20
<PAGE>
 
was scheduled to be payable in 12 to 20 quarterly installments with the last
installment due no later than September 30, 2003.

     In connection with the CCI Acquisition, the Company entered into a credit
agreement dated as of February 3, 1998, with NationsBank, N.A., as
Administrative Agent, SunTrust Bank, Tampa Bay, as Documentation Agent, LaSalle
National Bank, as Co-Agent, and other lenders (the "Lenders"), pursuant to which
the Lenders made available to the Company an initial revolving loan commitment
(the "Revolving Credit Facility") of $15 million, including a $5.0 million
sublimit available for the issuance of letters of credit, and a term commitment
(the "Term Loan Facility") of $110 million (the "1998 Credit Agreement"). The
balance outstanding of $8.7 million outstanding on the 1996 Credit Agreement was
refinanced simultaneously with the signing of the 1998 Credit Agreement and is
included as part of the balances outstanding on the 1998 Credit Agreement.

     The loans outstanding under the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit
Facility bear interest, at the Company's option, equal to (i) the Base Rate (as
defined in the 1998 Credit Agreement ) plus a margin of 1.25% or (ii) LIBOR (as
defined in the 1998 Credit Agreement), based on one, two, three or six month
periods, plus a margin of 2.75%, with the applicable margins for the Term Loan
Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility being subject to reductions based on
the Company's ratio of Funded Debt (as defined in the 1998 Credit Agreement) to
EBITDA (as defined in the 1998 Credit Agreement) at given times. As of May 14,
1998, the interest rates on the Term Loan Facility and on a $1.4 million and an
$8.0 million note outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility were 8.47%,
9.75% and 8.44%, respectively.

     Amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Facility are required to be repaid
in consecutive quarterly installments, the first three of which (each in the
aggregate principal amount of approximately $3.33 million) are due on the last
day of each of the first three calendar quarters commencing with the quarter
ending June 30, 1998. The next 20 installments in the aggregate principal amount
of $5.0 million each will be due on the last day of each calendar quarter
commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 1999. The final installment under
the Term Loan Facility will be payable on February 3, 2004. The Revolving Credit
Facility will mature on February 3, 2004. As of May 15, 1998, $110.0 million in
outstanding principal amount had been borrowed under the Term Loan Facility and
$9.5 million in outstanding principal amount had been borrowed under the
Revolving Credit Facility.

     Loans under the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility may be
prepaid at any time and are subject to certain mandatory prepayments in an
amount equal to (i) 100% of the net proceeds in excess of $1.0 million received
from the issuance of equity by the Company or its subsidiaries, (ii) 100% of the
net proceeds from certain asset sales in excess of $0.5 million in any calendar
year and (iii) 50% (75% for the Company's 1998 fiscal year) of the Company's
Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the 1998 Credit Agreement) if the ratio of its
Funded Debt to EBITDA as of the last day of the


                                       21

fiscal year is less than 2.5 to 1.0. It is expected that the Company will pay to
the Senior Lenders 100% of the net proceeds from the Offering described herein
as a permanent reduction in the principal amount of Senior Indebtedness.
Prepayments under the Revolving Loan Facility will be applied first to reduce
Base Rate loans until they are reduced to zero and then to reduce LIBOR loans.

     The Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed, on
a joint and several basis, by the Company and certain of the direct and indirect
subsidiaries of the Company. The 1998 Credit Agreement contains representations
and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default
customary for similar financings.

     As of March 31, 1998, the company was in violation of the covenant
contained in the 1998 Credit Agreement which required the ratio of funded debt
to EBITDA for the trailing twelve month period to be at or below 5.00 to 1. The
Company has been granted a waiver of this requirement by the Lenders through
June 29, 1998. The Company and the Lenders have also agreed to amend the 1998
Credit Agreement by extending the deadline for delivery of certain documents
which were not available for delivery to the Lenders by the original due dates.

     The Company believes that cash generated from operations and available
borrowings under the credit facility will be sufficient to fund the Company's
foreseeable cash requirements, including capital expenditures. The Company also
believes that it will be able to fund any future acquisitions through a
combination of cash generated from operations, additional borrowing and the
issuance of shares of its Common Stock. There can be no assurance, however, that
the Company will continue to expand at its current rate or that additional
financing will be available when needed or, if available, will be available on
terms acceptable to the Company.

Impact of Inflation

     Inflation is not a material factor affecting the Company's business.
General operating expenses such as salaries, employee benefits and occupancy
costs are, however, subject to normal inflationary pressures.

Seasonality

     The Company's revenues from its payphone operating regions are affected by
seasonal variations, geographic distribution of payphones and type of location.
Because many of the Company's payphones are located outdoors, weather patterns
have differing effects on the Company's results depending on the region of the
country where they are located. Most of the Company's payphones in Florida
produce substantially higher call volume in the first and second quarters than
at other times during the year, while the Company's payphones throughout the
midwestern and eastern United States produce their highest call volumes during
the second and third quarters. While the aggregate effect of the variations in
different geographical regions tend to counteract the effect of one another, the
Company has historically experienced higher revenue and income in the second and
third quarters than in the first and fourth quarters. Changes in the
geographical distribution of its payphones may in the future result in different
seasonal variations in the Company's results.

Year 2000 Issue

     Many existing computer programs, including those used by the Company in its
operations, use only two digits to identify a year in the date field. These
programs were designed and developed without considering the impact of the
upcoming change in the century. If not corrected, many computer applications
could fail or create erroneous results by or at the year 2000. This potential
problem is often referred to as the "Year 2000 issue." The Company has
undertaken a thorough analysis of the costs of addressing the Year 2000 issue
and of the consequences of an incomplete or untimely resolution of the Year 2000
issue and determined that such costs are not likely to have a material effect on
the Company's future financial results. In addition, while the Company has not
completed its analysis of the measures taken by its key suppliers to address the
Year 2000 issue, the Company is not aware of any key supplier whose lack of
preparedness to address the Year 2000 issue could have a material effect on the
Company's future financial results.
