                        LONG DISTANCE INTERNATIONAL INC.

              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the
     interim periods are unaudited and do not include all the information and
     footnotes necessary for the presentation of financial position, results of
     operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting
     principles.

     In the opinion of the management of Long Distance International Inc. (the
     "Company"), all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the
     results of the interim periods have been included. All adjustments were of
     a normal and recurring nature. The December 31, 1998 balance sheet was
     derived from the audited financial statements, but does not include all
     the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. The
     results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September
     30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
     the full year ending December 31, 1999.

     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern
     basis, which contemplated the realization of assets and satisfaction of
     liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the financial
     statements, the Company has incurred losses of $102,843,906 and $42,158,564
     for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 respectively, and has
     a working capital deficit of $19,204,981 at September 30, 1999. These
     factors, among others, raise substantial doubt the Company's ability to
     continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. (See Note 8 -
     Liquidity)

     The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
     recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that might be
     necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern other
     than those discussed in Note 7 - Discontinued Operations.

     The Company is in default on many of its capital and operating leases in
     the United States. The Company has not made a principal payment on a note
     payable when due (See Note 8 - Liquidity). In addition, many of the
     Company's other liabilities in the United States have not been paid within
     their stated terms. Subsequent to September 30, 1999, LDI Acquisition Sub
     Inc., a consolidated subsidiary of the Company ("LDI Acquisition")
     obtained a $2 million loan from a third party under the Loan Agreement
     (See Note 9 - Loan Agreement). On October 15, 1999, the Company made the
     scheduled semi-annual interest payment on the 12 1/4% Senior Notes due
     2008 (the "Notes"). In addition, on October 15, 1999, the holders of the
     Notes (the "Senior Noteholders") directed the Indenture Trustee to hold
     the interest payment and to not deliver it to the Noteholders. On November
     5, 1999, the Senior Noteholders directed the Indenture Trustee to advance
     up to $8 million of the interest payment to LDI Acquisition on the terms
     and conditions of the Loan Agreement. The Company understands that the
     Indenture Trustee continues to hold the remainder of the interest payment.
     The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining
     additional funding through debt or equity financing or through the sale of
     the Company.

     The information included in these unaudited condensed consolidated
     financial statements should be read in conjunction with Management's
     Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
     and the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included
     in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
     December 31, 1998.






                                                                              6

2.   LOSS PER SHARE


     The Company computes loss per share pursuant to Statement of Financial
     Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Weighted average
     shares outstanding does not include any contingently issuable shares. The
     dilutive effect of options, warrants and Series A convertible preferred
     stock have not been considered as their effect would be antidilutive for
     all periods presented.


3.   COMPREHENSIVE INCOME


     SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, establishes standards for
     reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full
     set of general-purpose financial statements. Comprehensive income is
     defined as the change in equity arising from non-owner sources. It
     includes net loss as well as foreign currency items, minimum pension
     liability adjustments, and unrealized gains and losses on certain
     investments in debt and equity securities. Other than net loss, the only
     such item applicable to the Company is foreign currency translations
     adjustment which did not have a material effect on the Company's
     consolidated financial statements. Comprehensive loss for the three months
     ended September 30, 1999 was $25,635,390 as compared to $18,654,832 in the
     same period in the prior year. Comprehensive loss for the nine months
     ended September 30, 1999 was $102,309,027 as compared to $42,036,478 in
     the same period in the prior year.


4.   SEGMENT ANALYSIS


     The Company operates in one industry segment, the telecommunications
     services industry, which includes international and domestic telephony as
     well as fixed-line to mobile services. The Company has reportable
     operating segments based on the geographical areas in which the Company
     provides services as well as the type of customer it sells to. Operating
     loss represents net revenues less operating costs and expenses, and does
     not include interest expense/income and other expense/income. All
     inter-company transactions have been eliminated. Other, as shown below,
     includes the Company's operations in Spain, Italy, France and the U.S.
     headquarters. The Company also supports headquarters operations in Sweden
     and the United Kingdom. The costs associated with those headquarters are
     included in the amounts below related to those respective countries.

5. ASSET IMPAIRMENT AND RESTRUCTURING COSTS


In December 1998, the Company implemented a worldwide plan to reduce selling,
general and administrative costs and increase efficiencies. In connection with
this program, the Company recorded charges of approximately $4.0 million in the
fourth quarter of 1998. The cash outlay related to these charges in the first
nine months of 1999 was approximately $1.9 million. Details of the change in
the restructuring accrual between December 31, 1998 and September 30, 1999 are
as follows:

</TABLE>

Pursuant to the restructuring, the Company recorded $1.1 million in employment
contract obligations to executives. The Company has settled certain of these
obligations for lesser amounts and has recorded a reduction of $355,005 in the
reserve related to these settlements in the second quarter of 1999. The
remaining employment contract obligations are expected to be paid over the next
nine months.





                                                                              8

6. CONTINGENCIES


Viatel, Inc. ("Viatel"), a Trans-Atlantic cable provider, has claimed that the
Company is obligated to pay $14,875,000 under certain letter agreements which
Viatel claims obligated the Company to purchase certain cable capacity as part
of an IRU agreement that was never consummated. The Company believes that it
has no obligation to pay Viatel under those purported agreements and that its
liability, in any event, would be limited to the $1,625,000 which the Company
placed in escrow during 1998. This amount is included in other assets in the
Company's Balance Sheet as of September 30, 1999. The Company intends to
vigorously defend against Viatel's claim but is unable to predict the ultimate
outcome of this matter and the amount of loss, if any.

In connection with the October 1998 acquisition of NETnet International A. B.
("NETnet"), 2,519,473 shares of the purchase price are contingently returnable
to the Company in connection with the accuracy of the seller's representations
and have been classified as an accrued liability of $7,508,029 at December 31,
1998 and September 30, 1999. These shares have not been included in the number
of shares used in the loss-per-share calculation for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999.

From time to time, the Company is a party to litigation arising in the normal
course of business. The Company is not currently engaged in any legal
proceedings that are expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company.


7. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS


Following continued weakness in the United States operations, on May 18, 1999
the Company's Board of Directors agreed to a plan to discontinue the Company's
U.S. retail operations. Accordingly, the operating results of the discontinued
retail operations, including provisions for estimated losses during the
phase-out period, have been segregated from continuing operations and reported
as a separate line item on the statement of operations. Due to the subjective
nature of estimating future operating losses and incremental costs of disposal,
it is reasonably possible that these estimates may change in the future. Future
changes in estimates will be included in the statement of operations in the
period determined. The Company recorded an expense in the second quarter of
1999 in the amount of approximately $14.3 million to provide for the estimated
loss on disposition of the related assets and liabilities of the U.S. retail
operations and other expenses related to the closing of these operations and
approximately $3.1 million in the third quarter to provide for the estimated
loss in disposition of additional assets. Amounts recorded include
approximately $4.3 million for estimated operating losses during the phase-out
period subsequent to September 30, 1999 and approximately $450,000 for rent
under operating leases until the Company estimates it can sublease certain of
its facilities. In the third quarter, the Company recorded an additional $1.9
million for estimated operating losses during the phase-out period. Included in
the net assets of the discontinued operations at September 30, 1999 is $6.9
million for property and equipment relating to the Company's U.S. network which
is net of a write-down of $17.0 million to reserve for the expected loss on the
sale of the property and equipment. The Company is liable for capital lease
obligations and installment loans on this equipment. Accordingly, the lease
obligations of $9.6 million and installment loans of $5.2 million have not been
included in the net assets of the discontinued operation. As the Company is not
current on the payment of these leases, they are classified as current
obligations at September 30, 1999. (See Note 8 - Liquidity).

The consolidated financial statements and related footnotes of the Company have
been restated to report separately the net assets and operating results of the
U.S. retail operations as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Net assets of the U.S. discontinued operations, which are presented as net
amounts in the Company's consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 1999 and
December 31, 1998, are as follows:

8. LIQUIDITY

In January 1999, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to pursue
additional financing of approximately $40 million and subsequently retained
Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated ("Morgan Stanley") as its financial advisor.
Without prior notice at the end of June 1999, Morgan Stanley advised the
Company that it was abandoning its efforts to raise capital on behalf of the
Company and unilaterally terminating its engagement as financial advisor to the
Company. In connection with Morgan Stanley's termination of its engagement,
Morgan Stanley has advised the Company it is a holder of a significant portion
of the Notes. The Company has expressly reserved all rights, remedies, claims
and causes of action that it has or may have against Morgan Stanley in
connection with Morgan Stanley's engagement as financial advisor to the Company
and the terms and conditions of the termination of such engagement.

The Company's cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 1999, are not
sufficient to fund the operations of the Company through the end of 1999.
Through September 30, 1999, the Company was successful in raising an additional
$10 million of financing (see Note 9) of an original $40 million of financing
which was sought. During the second quarter of 1999, when it became apparent
that the Company would not be successful in obtaining all of the debt or equity
financing it was seeking, the Company began to consider all alternatives
available to it to raise additional liquidity and/or realize value on its
assets and operations. These options include the potential sale of the company
or a substantial amount of its assets or debt or equity financing.

As of September 30, 1999, the Company had not made certain payments to lessors,
lenders and vendors. The Company leases certain computer and telecommunications





                                                                            10
<PAGE>   11

equipment under non-cancelable capital leases with maturities of three to five
years. The Company has not made payments under these leases in the United
States for several months. These leases generally contain acceleration
provisions which allow the lease to become due in full as a result of
non-payment. Several of these lessors have notified the Company of defaults and
acceleration of the leases. Accordingly, the Company has reclassified all of
these U.S. leases as current in its Balance Sheet at September 30, 1999. The
Company did not make a scheduled principal payment of approximately $4 million
on a note payable to one of its European carriers which came due on September
30, 1999. The Company is negotiating with the carrier to restructure this debt.
(See "Liquidity and Capital Resources")

If the Company is unable to obtain additional debt or equity financing, to
successfully implement a strategic alliance or arrange a sale of the Company,
or substantially all of the Company's assets in the near future, together with
the financing necessary to consummate such a sale, it will have to file a
petition under the Federal Bankruptcy Code.

The consolidated Financial Statements do not include any adjustments to reflect
the possible future effects of the aforementioned on the recoverability and
classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that
may result from this uncertainty (See Note 1 - Basis of Presentation).


9. LOAN AGREEMENT


On July 20, 1999, LDI Acquisition borrowed $10,000,000 (the "Loan"), from
Frederick A. DeLuca ("DeLuca"), an existing stockholder of the Company,
pursuant to a term loan agreement (the "Loan Agreement"), among the Company,
LDI Acquisition, DeLuca, the lenders from time to time signatory thereto (the
"Other Lenders") and DeLuca, as collateral agent (in such capacity, the
"Collateral Agent"). The Loan has a one year term, expiring on July 20, 2000
(the "Initial Term"), and is extendable for up to an additional four months at
the option of the Company (the "Extended Term"). The principal amount of the
loan is payable at maturity. Interest is payable monthly and the loan bears
interest of 12-1/4% per annum during the Initial Term and 24-1/2% per annum
during the Extended Term. The loan is subject to a prepayment penalty if
prepaid prior to January 2000 and to substantial late charges if monthly
interest payments are not paid on a timely basis. The Loan Agreement has been
structured to allow for additional term loans (up to an aggregate principal
amount (together with the Loan) of $40,000,000) from the Other Lenders in
minimum term loan advances of $100,000. Any such future loans shall be made
subject to the terms of the Loan Agreement. The Company and LDI Acquisition
have agreed that the proceeds of any term loan advances which, together with
the Loan, exceed $32,500,000 would be used to repay the indebtedness of its
consolidated subsidiary NETnet to certain Scandinavian banks who currently have
a lien on the stock of NETnet.

The loan is secured by all the common stock of LDI Acquisition, pursuant to a
pledge agreement by the Company in favor of the Collateral Agent for the
ratable benefit of himself and the Other Lenders, and by all the capital stock
of the subsidiaries of LDI Acquisition to the extent possible, pursuant to a
pledge agreement by LDI Acquisition in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the
ratable benefit of himself and the Other Lenders. The subsidiaries of LDI
Acquisition represent all the non-U.S. based operations of the Company.

As additional consideration for, and as an inducement to DeLuca and the Other
Lenders to make loans under the agreement, the Company has agreed to issue to
the lenders a (i) Class A Common Stock Warrants (the "A Warrants") to purchase
up to 30% of the Company's common stock on a fully diluted basis as of the date
immediately preceding the closing of the Loan (the "Fully Diluted Shares") and
(ii) Class B Warrants (the "B Warrants"; together with the A Warrants, the
"Warrants") to purchase up to 20% of the Fully Diluted Shares (in each case,
assuming a full funding under the Loan Agreement of $40,000,000). The B
Warrants will become void in the event the term loan to which such Warrant
relates is paid on or prior to four months after such loan is made. To date,
Warrants have only been issued to DeLuca to purchase up to an aggregate of
12.5% of the Fully Diluted Shares (or 7.5% of the Fully Diluted Shares if the B
Warrants become void). Each Warrant is exercisable for a term of five years
from its exercise date (as hereinafter defined) and the exercise price for each
share of the Company's Common Stock exercisable under a Warrant is $.001 per
share. No Warrant is exercisable (assuming the B Warrant has not been voided)
until the earliest of:

         (a)      the sixteenth month anniversary date of the issuance of a
                  Warrant;

         (b)      the date the Company consummates an initial public offering
                  of shares of Common Stock pursuant to an effective
                  registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933;





                                                                             11
<PAGE>   12

         (c)      the date the Company consummates a sale of all or a
                  substantial portion of the business of the Company and its
                  consolidated subsidiaries taken as a whole, whether by way of
                  merger, acquisition, sale of assets or sale of capital stock;

         (d)      the date a bankruptcy petition is filed by or against the
                  Company, LDI Acquisition or a material operating subsidiary
                  of LDI Acquisition;

         (e)      the effective date of a waiver under the Indenture, dated as
                  of April 13, 1998 (the "Indenture"), pursuant to which the
                  Company's 12 1/4% Senior Notes due 2008 (the "Notes") were
                  issued, the effect of which waiver would be to waive the
                  requirement that the Company repurchase the Notes pursuant to
                  Section 4.12 of the Indenture because of a Change of Control
                  (as defined in the Indenture);

         (f)      the date on which the exercise of all A Warrants and all B
                  Warrants would not result in a Change of Control; and

         (g)      the date on which a Change of Control under the Indenture
                  occurs for a reason other than an exercise of any of the A
                  Warrants or B Warrants and a waiver with respect thereto
                  described in clause (e) above is not obtained; and

         (h)      the date on which Cliff Friedland and David Glassman cease to
                  be directors of the Company (other than by reason of their
                  death or disability) or beneficially own in the aggregate
                  less than 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company.

Additionally, as further consideration for the Loan, DeLuca (or his designee)
was given the right to a seat on the Company's Board of Directors. The Company
failed to make the scheduled monthly interest payments under the Loan Agreement
in September and October. However, the Company has received a forbearance from
the lenders under the Loan Agreement with respect to such missed interest
payments until the earlier to occur of November 30, 1999, or the filing of a
petition or complaint against the Company pursuant to Chapter 11 of Title 11 of
the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") or any similar law.

As determined by the Company's Board of Directors, the value of the Warrants
was determined to be approximately $783,000, which resulted in a discount and
effective interest rate of 21% on the Loan. The discount is being amortized
over the initial term of the Loan.


10. EQUITY


On July 13, 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company approved Articles of
Amendment to the Second Restated Articles of Incorporation whereby the number
of common shares authorized was increased to 250,000,000, and the number of
shares of both classes of Preferred, which may be issued in either Series, was
increased by an additional 20,000,000 shares as designated by the Board of
Directors.


11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS


On October 19, 1999, LDI Acquisition obtained a $2 million loan from a third
party, World Access, Inc. ("World Access"), an international long distance
provider and proprietary network equipment supplier. The loan was made under
the Loan Agreement (See Note 9 - Loan Agreement). In connection with the loan,
World Access entered into discussions with the Company regarding a potential
business transaction.

On October 15, 1999, the Company made the scheduled semi-annual interest
payment on the Notes in the amount of $13.8 million. In addition, on October
15, 1999, the Senior Noteholders directed the Indenture Trustee to hold the
interest payment and not to deliver it to the Senior Noteholders.

In the months of September and October, LDI Acquisition did not make scheduled
interest payments under the Loan Agreement. LDI Acquisition has received a
forbearance from the lenders under the Loan Agreement with respect to such
missed interest payments until the earlier to occur of November 30, 1999, or a
filing by or against the Company pursuant to Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code
or a similar law.





                                                                             12
<PAGE>   13

On November 5, 1999, the Senior Noteholders directed the Indenture Trustee to
advance to LDI Acquisition up to $8 million of the interest payment pursuant to
the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement. The Company understands that
the Indenture Trustee continues to hold the remainder of the interest payment.
The $8 million in advances is subject to certain budget compliance and advance
request notification. Approximately $6.3 million was drawn on November 5, 1999.
Advances are being made under the Loan Agreement (See Note 9 - Loan Agreement).
No advances may be made after the earlier to occur of a termination by the
Senior Noteholders or November 30, 1999.
