                       PEGASUS COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  The Company:

         Pegasus Communications Corporation ("Pegasus" or together with its
subsidiaries, the "Company") operates in growing segments of the media industry
and is a direct subsidiary of Pegasus Communications Holdings, Inc. ("PCH" or
the "Parent"). Pegasus' significant direct operating subsidiary is Pegasus Media
& Communications, Inc. ("PM&C").

         PM&C's subsidiaries provide direct broadcast satellite television
("DBS") services to customers in certain rural areas of the United States; own
and/or program broadcast television ("Broadcast" or "TV") stations affiliated
with the Fox Broadcasting Company ("Fox"), United Paramount Network ("UPN") and
The WB Television Network ("WB"); and own and operate a cable television
("Cable") system that provides service to individual and commercial subscribers
in Puerto Rico.

2.  Basis of Presentation:

         The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. The financial statements include the accounts of Pegasus
and all of its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have
been eliminated. Certain amounts for 1999 have been reclassified for comparative
purposes.

         The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments
consisting of normal recurring items which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair presentation, in all material respects, of the financial
position of the Company and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
the interim period. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1999 included
in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year then ended.

3.  Investment in Affiliates:

         Pegasus Development Corporation ("PDC"), a subsidiary of Pegasus, has
an 89% investment in Pegasus PCS Partners, LP ("PCS") which is accounted for by
the equity method. PCS, a jointly owned limited partnership, acquires, owns,
controls and manages wireless licenses. Pegasus PCS, Inc. is the sole general
partner of PCS and is controlled by Marshall W. Pagon, the Company's President
and Chief Executive Officer. PDC's share of undistributed losses of PCS included
in continuing operations was $116,000 for the first quarter of 2000. PDC's total
investment in PCS at March 31, 2000 was $4.5 million.

         In January 2000, PDC made an investment in Personalized Media
Communications, LLC ("PMC"), an advanced communications technology company, of
approximately $112.0 million which is accounted for by the equity method. The
investment consisted of $14.4 million in cash, 200,000 shares of Pegasus' Class
A Common Stock (amounting to $18.8 million) and Pegasus' agreement, subject to
certain conditions, to issue warrants to purchase 1.0 million shares of Pegasus'
Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $90.00 per share and with a term of
ten years. The fair value of the warrants to be issued was estimated using the
Black-Scholes pricing model and is approximately $78.8 million. A subsidiary of
PMC granted to Pegasus an exclusive license for use of PMC's patent portfolio in
the distribution of satellite services from specified orbital locations. Mary C.
Metzger, Chairman of PMC and a member of the Company's Board of Directors, and
John C. Harvey, Managing Member of PMC and Ms. Metzger's husband, own a majority
of and control PMC. PDC's share of undistributed losses of PMC included in
continuing operations was insignificant for the first quarter of 2000. PDC's
total investment in PMC at March 31, 2000 was $112.0 million.

7.  Earnings Per Common Share: - (Continued)

         Basic earnings per common share amounts are based on net loss, after
deducting preferred stock dividend requirements, divided by the weighted average
number of shares of Class A, Class B and Non-Voting Common Stock outstanding
during the period. The total shares used for the calculation of diluted earnings
per common share were not adjusted for securities that have not been issued as
they are antidilutive.

         For the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 2000, net loss per common
share was determined by dividing net loss, as adjusted by the aggregate amount
of preferred stock dividend requirements, approximately $4.0 million and $4.8
million, respectively, by applicable shares outstanding.

8.  Acquisitions:

         In the first quarter of 2000, the Company acquired, from seven
independent DIRECTV(R) ("DIRECTV") providers, the rights to provide DIRECTV
programming in certain rural areas of the United States and the related assets
in exchange for total consideration of approximately $133.9 million, which
consisted of $36.0 million in cash, 22,500 shares of Pegasus' Series D Preferred
Stock (amounting to $22.5 million), 10,000 shares of Pegasus' Series E Preferred
Stock (amounting to $10.0 million), 436,592 shares of Pegasus' Class A Common
Stock (amounting to $39.7 million), warrants to purchase a total of 1,500 shares
of Pegasus' Class A Common Stock (amounting to $166,000), $24.4 million of a
deferred tax liability, $200,000 in promissory notes and $961,000 in assumed net
liabilities.

its remaining Cable operations for $170.0 million in cash, subject to certain
adjustments. The Company anticipates closing this sale during the third quarter
of 2000. Accordingly, the results of operations from the entire Cable segment
have been classified as discontinued with prior periods restated.

10. Supplemental Cash Flow Information: - (Continued)

         For the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 2000, the Company paid
cash for interest in the amount of $18.1 million and $12.7 million,
respectively. The Company paid no federal income taxes for the three months
ended March 31, 1999 and 2000.

11. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities:

Legal Matters:

         From time to time the Company is involved with claims that arise in the
normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate liability
with respect to these claims will not have a material adverse effect on the
consolidated operations, liquidity, cash flows or financial position of the
Company.

         The Company is a rural affiliate of the National Rural
Telecommunications Cooperative ("NRTC"). The NRTC is a cooperative organization
whose members and affiliates are engaged in the distribution of
telecommunications and other services in predominantly rural areas of the United
States. The Company's ability to distribute DIRECTV programming services is
dependent upon agreements between the NRTC and Hughes Electronics Corporation,
DIRECTV's parent, and between the Company and the NRTC.

         On June 3, 1999, the NRTC filed a lawsuit in federal court against
DIRECTV seeking a court order to enforce the NRTC's contractual rights to obtain
from DIRECTV certain premium programming formerly distributed by United States
Satellite Broadcasting Company, Inc. for exclusive distribution by the NRTC's
members and affiliates in their rural markets. On July 22, 1999, DIRECTV
responded to the NRTC's continuing lawsuit by rejecting the NRTC's claims to
exclusive distribution rights and by filing a counterclaim seeking judicial
clarification of certain provisions of DIRECTV's contract with the NRTC. In
particular, DIRECTV contends in its counterclaim that the term of DIRECTV's
contract with the NRTC is measured solely by the orbital life of DBS-1, the
first DIRECTV satellite launched into orbit at the 101(Degree) W orbital
location, without regard to the orbital lives of the other DIRECTV satellites at
the 101(Degree) W orbital location. DIRECTV also alleges in its counterclaim
that the NRTC's right of first refusal, which is effective at the end of the
term of DIRECTV's contract with the NRTC, does not provide for certain
programming and other rights comparable to those now provided under the
contract.

         On August 26, 1999, the NRTC filed a separate lawsuit in federal court
against DIRECTV claiming that DIRECTV had failed to provide to the NRTC its
share of launch fees and other benefits that DIRECTV and its affiliates have
received relating to programming and other services. On September 9, 1999, the
NRTC filed a response to DIRECTV's counterclaim contesting DIRECTV's
interpretations of the end of term and right of first refusal provisions.

         On January 10, 2000, the Company and Golden Sky Systems, Inc. ("Golden
Sky", a subsidiary of Golden Sky Holdings, Inc.) filed a lawsuit in federal
court against DIRECTV which contains causes of action for various torts, common
counts and declaratory relief based on DIRECTV's failure to provide the NRTC
with premium programming, thereby preventing the NRTC from providing this
programming to the Company and Golden Sky. The claims are also based on
DIRECTV's position with respect to launch fees and other benefits, term and
rights of first refusal. The complaint seeks monetary damages and a court order
regarding the rights of the NRTC and its members and affiliates.

         On February 10, 2000, the Company and Golden Sky filed an amended
complaint which added new tort claims against DIRECTV for interference with
plaintiffs' relationships with manufacturers, distributors and dealers of direct
broadcast satellite equipment. The Company and Golden Sky also withdrew the
class action allegations to allow a new class action to be filed on behalf of
the members and affiliates of the NRTC. The class action was filed on February

reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as the date
hereof. We do not undertake any obligation to publicly release any revisions to
these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the
date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

         The following discussion of the financial condition and results of
operations of Pegasus should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and related notes which are included on pages 3-14 herein.


General

         Pegasus Communications Corporation is:

         o  The largest independent provider of DIRECTV with 802,000 subscribers
            at March 31, 2000, on an actual basis, without giving effect to the
            Golden Sky acquisition. We have the exclusive right to distribute
            DIRECTV digital broadcast satellite services to 5.3 million rural
            households in 38 states. We distribute DIRECTV through the Pegasus
            retail network, a network in excess of 2,500 independent retailers.

         o  The owner or programmer of ten TV stations affiliated with either
            Fox, UPN or the WB and the owner of a large cable system in Puerto
            Rico serving approximately 55,000 subscribers.

         DBS revenues are principally derived from monthly customer
subscriptions and pay-per-view services. Broadcast revenues are derived from the
sale of broadcast airtime to local and national advertisers.

         In January 2000, we entered into a letter of intent to sell the assets
of our entire cable system business in Puerto Rico to a subsidiary of Centennial
Cellular Corporation for $170.0 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments.
The closing of this sale is anticipated to occur during the third quarter of
2000 and is subject to the negotiation of a definitive agreement, third-party
approvals, including regulatory approvals, and other customary conditions.
Accordingly, the results of our cable segment have been presented as
discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of operations.

         In this section we use the terms pre-marketing cash flow from
continuing operations and location cash flow from continuing operations.
Pre-marketing cash flow from continuing operations is calculated by taking our
earnings and adding back the following expenses:


                                       15
<PAGE>

         o  interest;

         o  income taxes;

         o  depreciation and amortization;

         o  non-cash charges;

         o  corporate overhead;

         o  extraordinary and non-recurring items;

         o  results of discontinued operations; and

         o  DBS subscriber acquisition costs, which are sales and marketing
            expenses incurred and promotional programming provided in connection
            with the addition of new DBS subscribers.

         Location cash flow from continuing operations is pre-marketing cash
flow from continuing operations less DBS subscriber acquisition costs.

         Pre-marketing cash flow from continuing operations and location cash
flow from continuing operations are not, and should not be considered,
alternatives to income from operations, net income, net cash provided by
operating activities or any other measure for determining our operating
performance or liquidity, as determined under generally accepted accounting
principles. Pre-marketing cash flow from continuing operations and location cash
flow from continuing operations also do not necessarily indicate whether our
cash flow will be sufficient to fund working capital, capital expenditures, or
to react to changes in Pegasus' industry or the economy generally. We believe
that pre-marketing cash flow from continuing operations and location cash flow
from continuing operations are important, however, for the following reasons:

         o  people who follow our industry frequently use them as measures of
            financial performance and ability to pay debt service; and

         o  they are measures that we, our lenders and investors use to monitor
            our financial performance and debt leverage.

         Pegasus generally does not require new DBS customers to sign
programming contracts and, as a result, subscriber acquisition costs are
currently being charged to operations in the period incurred.


Results of Operations

Three months ended March 31, 2000 compared to three months ended March 31, 1999

         Total net revenues from continuing operations for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 were $104.0 million, an increase of $37.7 million, or 57%,
compared to total net revenues of $66.3 million for the same period in 1999. The
increase in total net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was
primarily due to an increase in DBS revenues of $37.5 million attributable to
acquisitions and to internal growth in Pegasus' DBS subscriber base. Total
operating expenses from continuing operations for the three months ended March
31, 2000 were $128.8 million, an increase of $35.3 million, or 38%, compared to
total operating expenses of $93.5 million for the same period in 1999. The
increase was primarily due to an increase of $32.6 million in operating expenses
attributable to the growth in Pegasus' DBS business.

         Total corporate expenses from continuing operations, including
corporate depreciation and amortization, were $2.2 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2000, an increase of $331,000, or 17%, compared to $1.9 million
for the same period in 1999. The increase in corporate expenses is primarily
attributable to the growth in Pegasus' business.


                                       16
<PAGE>

         New business development costs were $427,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 2000.

         Other expenses from continuing operations were $865,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2000, an increase of $516,000, or 148%, compared to other
expenses of $349,000 for the same period in 1999. The increase is primarily due
to increased investor relation activities and legal fees associated with the
DIRECTV litigation.

         Interest expense from continuing operations was $21.2 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2000, an increase of $5.6 million, or 35%, compared
to interest expense of $15.7 million for the same period in 1999. The increase
in interest expense is primarily due to interest and fees in connection with the
new Pegasus Media & Communications credit facility. Interest income from
continuing operations was $3.4 million for the three months ended March 31,
2000, an increase of $3.0 million, or 670%, compared to interest income of
$445,000 for the same period in 1999. The increase in interest income is due to
significantly higher average cash balances for the three months ended March 31,
2000 compared to the same period in 1999.

         The benefit for income taxes from continuing operations amounted to
$3.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000, an increase of $3.4
million, compared to a benefit of $443,000 for the same period in 1999. The
increase is primarily attributable to the amortization of deferred tax
liabilities originating from DBS acquisitions.

         Equity in the net losses of unconsolidated affiliates, resulting from
investments in Pegasus PCS Partners, LP in August 1999 and Personalized Media
Communications, LLC in January 2000, amounted to $116,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2000.

         Income from discontinued operations of the cable segment, net of income
taxes, was $491,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000, an increase of
$358,000, or 269%, compared to $133,000 for the same period in 1999. The
increase is primarily attributable to the acquisition of the Aguadilla, Puerto
Rico cable system effective March 31, 1999. Pegasus had approximately 55,000
cable subscribers at March 31, 2000 compared to 50,200 at March 31, 1999.

         Extraordinary loss from the extinguishment of debt was $9.3 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2000. In January 2000, Pegasus Media &
Communications entered into an amended and restated $500.0 million credit
facility. Commensurate with the closing of the new credit facility, certain
funds from the initial borrowing were used to repay the outstanding balances
under the existing Pegasus Media & Communications $180.0 million credit
facility, the Digital Television Services $90.0 million credit facilities and
the Pegasus $35.5 million interim letter of credit facility and commitments
under these credit facilities were terminated. Accordingly, the deferred
financing costs related to the terminated credit facilities were written off.

         Preferred stock dividends were $4.8 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2000, an increase of $734,000, or 18%, compared to $4.0 million in
preferred stock dividends for the same period in 1999. The increase is
attributable to a greater number of shares of Pegasus' preferred stock
outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2000 compared to the same
period in 1999 as the result of payment of dividends in kind and the issuance of
four new series of preferred stock in the first quarter of 2000.

DBS

         During the last twelve months, Pegasus acquired, through acquisitions,
approximately 77,000 subscribers and the exclusive DIRECTV distribution rights
to approximately 587,000 households in rural areas of the United States. At
March 31, 2000, Pegasus had exclusive DIRECTV distribution rights to 5.3 million
households and 802,000 subscribers as compared to 4.8 million households and
481,000 subscribers at March 31, 1999. Pegasus had 7.2 million households and
approximately 1.2 million subscribers at March 31, 2000, including pending
acquisitions (which include the acquisition of Golden Sky). At March 31, 1999,
subscribers would have been 817,000, including pending and completed
acquisitions. Subscriber penetration increased from 11.3% at March 31, 1999 to
16.1% at March 31, 2000, including pending and completed acquisitions.


                                       17
<PAGE>

         Total DBS net revenues were $95.9 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2000, an increase of $37.5 million, or 64%, compared to DBS net
revenues of $58.3 million for the same period in 1999. The increase is primarily
due to an increase in the average number of subscribers in the first quarter of
2000 compared to the first quarter of 1999. The average monthly revenue per
subscriber was $43.52 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 compared to
$43.12 for the same period in 1999. Pro forma DBS net revenues, including
pending acquisitions at March 31, 2000 (which include the acquisition of Golden
Sky), were $146.5 million, an increase of $23.7 million, or 19%, compared to pro
forma DBS net revenues of $122.8 million for the same period in 1999.

         Programming, technical, and general and administrative expenses were
$67.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000, an increase of $27.3
million, or 67%, compared to $40.5 million for the same period in 1999. The
increase is attributable to significant growth in subscribers and territory
during the last twelve months. As a percentage of revenue, programming,
technical, and general and administrative expenses were 70.8% for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 compared to 69.5% for the same period in 1999.

         Subscriber acquisition costs were $25.4 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2000, an increase of $4.3 million compared to $21.1 million for
the same period in 1999. Gross subscriber additions were 79,300 for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 compared to 51,600 for the same period in 1999. The
total subscriber acquisition costs per gross subscriber addition were $321 for
the three months ended March 31, 2000 compared to $410 for the same period in
1999. The decrease in subscriber acquisition costs per gross subscriber addition
is due to a decrease in promotional programming.

         Incentive compensation, which is calculated based on increases in pro
forma location cash flow, was $400,000 for the three months ended March 31,
2000, an increase of $10,000, or 3%, compared to $390,000 for the same period in
1999. The increase resulted from a larger gain in pro forma location cash flow
during the first quarter of 2000 as compared to the first quarter of 1999.

         Depreciation and amortization was $22.5 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2000, an increase of $998,000, or 5%, compared to $21.5 million
for the same period in 1999. The increase in depreciation and amortization is
primarily due to an increase in the fixed and intangible asset base as the
result of DBS acquisitions that occurred during the last two years.

Broadcast

         During the three months ended March 31, 2000, Pegasus owned or
programmed ten broadcast television stations in six markets. One new station was
launched during the fourth quarter of 1999. Total net broadcast revenues for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 were $8.1 million, an increase of $189,000, or
2%, compared to net broadcast revenues of $7.9 million for the same period in
1999. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase of $125,000 in
barter revenue.

         Programming, technical, and general and administrative expenses were
$6.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000, an increase of $1.0
million, or 21%, compared to $4.9 million for the same period in 1999. The
increase is primarily due to higher programming costs for the three months ended
March 31, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999 and an increase in fees to
the Fox Television Network.

         Marketing and selling expenses were $1.9 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2000, an increase of $402,000, or 27%, compared to $1.5 million
for the same period in 1999. The increase in marketing and selling expenses was
due to an increase in promotional costs associated with the launch of new
stations and news programs.

         Incentive compensation, which is calculated based on increases in pro
forma location cash flow, was $15,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000,
a decrease of $141,000, or 90%, compared to $156,000 for the same period in
1999. The decrease resulted from a lower gain in pro forma location cash flow
during the first quarter of 2000 as compared to the first quarter of 1999.


                                       18
<PAGE>

         Depreciation and amortization was $1.3 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2000, an increase of $136,000, or 11%, compared to $1.2 million
for the same period in 1999. The increase is due to capital expenditures
associated with the launch of new stations, our news initiative and the
construction of and facility upgrades to our stations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         Pegasus' primary sources of liquidity have been the net cash provided
by its DBS, broadcast and cable operations, credit available under its credit
facilities and proceeds from public and private offerings. Pegasus' principal
uses of its cash has been to fund acquisitions, to meet debt service
obligations, to fund DBS subscriber acquisition costs, to fund DBS programming
costs and dealer commissions and to fund investments in its broadcast and cable
technical facilities.

         Pre-marketing cash flow from continuing operations increased by
approximately $8.9 million, or 46%, for the three months ended March 31, 2000 as
compared to the same period in 1999. Pre-marketing cash flow from continuing
operations increased as a result of:

         o  a $10.2 million, or 57%, increase in DBS pre-marketing cash flow
            attributable to acquisitions and internal growth in Pegasus' DBS
            subscriber base; and

         o  a $1.2 million, or 80%, decrease in broadcast location cash flow as
            a result of an increase in programming expenses and fees to the Fox
            Television Network.

         During the three months ended March 31, 2000, $40.5 million of cash on
hand at the beginning of the year, together with $340.3 million of net cash
provided by Pegasus' financing activities, was used to fund operating activities
of approximately $5.7 million and investing activities of approximately $59.7
million. Investing activities consisted of:

         o  the acquisition of DBS assets from seven independent DIRECTV
            providers during the first quarter of 2000 for approximately $36.0
            million;

         o  approximately $1.3 million of broadcast expenditures for broadcast
            television transmitter, tower and facility constructions and
            upgrades;

         o  the expansion and enhancements of the Puerto Rico cable system
            amounting to approximately $1.3 million;

         o  investment in affiliates of $14.5 million;

         o  the purchase of a building for our corporate offices of
            approximately $13.0 million, of which $4.3 million was payable in
            cash;

         o  payments of programming rights amounting to $1.1 million; and

         o  maintenance and other capital expenditures and intangibles totaling
            approximately $1.4 million.

         Financing activities consisted of:

         o  the issuance of 3.0 million shares of Series C convertible preferred
            stock resulting in net proceeds to Pegasus of approximately $290.6
            million;

         o  the issuance of approximately 70,000 shares of Class A common stock
            resulting in net proceeds to Pegasus of approximately $811,000;


                                       19
<PAGE>

         o  net borrowings on bank credit facilities totaling $70.8 million;

         o  an increase in deferred financing costs of approximately $10.1
            million, primarily in connection with the amendment and restatement
            of the Pegasus Media & Communications credit facility;

         o  the repayment of approximately $9.8 million of long-term debt,
            primarily sellers' notes and capital leases;

         o  the placement of approximately $2.1 million in certificates of
            deposit to collateralize certain outstanding loans; and

         o  the repurchase of Class A common stock in treasury of $52,000.

         As of March 31, 2000, cash on hand amounted to $315.3 million plus
restricted cash of $4.4 million.

         In January 2000, Pegasus Media & Communications entered into a first
amended and restated credit facility, which consists of a $225.0 million senior
revolving credit facility which expires in 2004 and a $275.0 million senior term
credit facility which expires in 2005. The new Pegasus Media & Communications
credit facility is collateralized by substantially all of the assets of Pegasus
Media & Communications and its subsidiaries and is subject to certain financial
covenants as defined in the loan agreement, including a debt to adjusted cash
flow covenant. Borrowings under the new Pegasus Media & Communications credit
facility are available for acquisitions, subject to the approval of lenders in
certain circumstances, to retire certain indebtedness, to fund interest
payments, for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate
purposes. As of March 31, 2000, $275.0 million was outstanding under the senior
term credit facility and stand-by letters of credit amounting to $40.6 million
were issued pursuant to the senior revolving credit facility.

         A portion of the proceeds from the initial borrowing under the senior
term credit facility was used to repay the outstanding balances under the
existing Pegasus Media & Communications $180.0 million senior revolving credit
facility, the Digital Television Services $90.0 million credit facilities and
the Pegasus $35.5 million interim letter of credit facility and commitments
under these credit facilities were terminated. Additionally, in connection with
the closing of the new Pegasus Media & Communications credit facility, Digital
Television Services was merged with and into a subsidiary of Pegasus Media &
Communications.

         In January 2000, Pegasus completed an offering of 3.0 million shares of
its 6.5% Series C convertible preferred stock, with a liquidation preference of
$100 per share plus any accrued but unpaid dividends, which resulted in net
proceeds to Pegasus of approximately $290.6 million. Each share of Series C
preferred stock will initially be convertible at the option of the holder into
0.7843 shares of Pegasus' Class A common stock. Pegasus may redeem the Series C
preferred stock on or after August 1, 2001, subject to certain conditions, at
redemption prices set forth in the certificate of designation, plus accumulated
and unpaid dividends, if any.

         In the first quarter of 2000, Pegasus issued 5,707 shares, 22,500
shares and 10,000 shares of its Series B, Series D and Series E junior
convertible participating preferred stock, respectively, with a liquidation
preference of $1,000 per share plus any accrued but unpaid dividends, as partial
consideration for acquisitions of DIRECTV distribution rights from three
independent DIRECTV providers. Each share of Series B, Series D and Series E
preferred stock will initially be convertible at the option of the holder into
approximately 16.24 shares, 9.77 shares and 10.78 shares of Pegasus' Class A
common stock, respectively.


                                       20
<PAGE>


         As defined in the certificate of designation governing Pegasus' Series
A preferred stock and the indentures governing Pegasus' senior notes, Pegasus is
required to provide adjusted operating cash flow data for Pegasus and its
restricted subsidiaries on a consolidated basis where adjusted operating cash
flow is defined as "for the four most recent fiscal quarters for which internal
financial statements are available, operating cash flow of such person and its
restricted subsidiaries less DBS cash flow for the most recent four-quarter
period plus DBS cash flow for the most recent quarterly period, multiplied by
four." Operating cash flow is income from operations before income taxes,
depreciation and amortization, interest expense, extraordinary items and
non-cash charges. Although adjusted operating cash flow is not a measure of
performance under generally accepted accounting principles, we believe that
location cash flow, operating cash flow and adjusted operating cash flow are
accepted within our business segments as generally recognized measures of
performance and are used by analysts who report publicly on the performance of
companies operating in such segments. Restricted subsidiaries carries the same
meaning as in the certificate of designation. Pro forma for the seven completed
DBS acquisitions occurring in the first quarter of 2000, as if such acquisitions
occurred on April 1, 1999, adjusted operating cash flow would have been
approximately $123.1 million as follows (in thousands):

         Pegasus believes that it has adequate resources to meet its working
capital, maintenance capital expenditure and debt service obligations for at
least the next twelve months. However, Pegasus is highly leveraged and our
ability in the future to repay our existing indebtedness will depend upon the
success of our business strategy, prevailing economic conditions, regulatory
matters, levels of interest rates and financial, business and other factors that
are beyond our control. We cannot assure you that we will be able to generate
the substantial increases in cash flow from operations that we will need to meet
the obligations under our indebtedness. Furthermore, our agreements with respect
to our indebtedness contain numerous covenants that, among other things,
restrict our ability to:

         o  pay dividends and make certain other payments and investments;

         o  borrow additional funds;

         o  create liens; and

         o  sell our assets.

Failure to make debt payments or comply with our covenants could result in an
event of default which if not cured or waived could have a material adverse
effect on us.

         Pegasus closely monitors conditions in the capital markets to identify
opportunities for the effective use of financial leverage. In financing its
future expansion and acquisition requirements, Pegasus would expect to avail
itself of such opportunities and thereby increase its indebtedness. This could
result in increased debt service requirements. We cannot assure you that such
debt financing can be completed on terms satisfactory to Pegasus or at all.
Pegasus may also issue additional equity to fund its future expansion and
acquisition requirements.

Year 2000

         The year 2000 issue is a general term used to describe the various
problems that may result from the improper processing of dates and
date-sensitive calculations by computers and other equipment as the year 2000 is
approached and reached. An issue exists for all companies that rely on
computers. This issue involves computer programs and applications that were
written using two digits rather than four to identify the applicable year, and
could result in systems failures or miscalculations. We have completed an
assessment of and taken corrective measures to mitigate the potential adverse
effects the year 2000 issue may have on our operations. Costs in connection with
any modifications to make our systems compliant have not been and are not
expected to be material. We are not currently aware of any operational or
technical problems as a result of the change to the year 2000 and will continue
to monitor the potential adverse impact of the year 2000 issue on our business;
however, there can be no assurance that the year 2000 issue will not have a
material adverse impact on our financial condition or our results of operations
in the future.

Dividend Policy

         As a holding company, Pegasus' ability to pay dividends is dependent
upon the receipt of dividends from its direct and indirect subsidiaries. Pegasus
Media & Communications' credit facility and publicly held debt securities
restrict it from paying dividends to Pegasus. In addition, Pegasus' ability to
pay dividends and to incur indebtedness are subject to certain restrictions
contained in Pegasus' publicly held debt securities, in the terms of Pegasus'
Series A and Series C preferred stock and by Pegasus Media & Communications'
credit facility and publicly held debt securities.

Seasonality

         Pegasus' revenues vary throughout the year. As is typical in the
broadcast television industry, Pegasus' first quarter generally produces the
lowest revenues for the year and the fourth quarter generally produces the
highest revenues for the year. Pegasus' operating results in any period may be
affected by the incurrence of advertising and promotion expenses that do not
necessarily produce commensurate revenues in the short-term until the impact of
such advertising and promotion is realized in future periods.

Inflation

         Pegasus believes that inflation has not been a material factor
affecting its business. In general, Pegasus' revenues and expenses are impacted
to the same extent by inflation. A majority of Pegasus' indebtedness bears
interest at a fixed rate.

New Accounting Pronouncements

         In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 133"). As a result of the
subsequent issuance of SFAS No. 137 in July 1999, SFAS No. 133 is now effective
for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS No. 133 establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging
activities. Management believes that the adoption of SFAS No. 133 will not have
a material effect on our business, financial position or results of operations.

         In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition" ("SAB 101"), which
provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in
financial statements filed with the SEC. SAB 101 outlines the basic criteria
that must be met in order to recognize revenue and provides guidance for
disclosure related to revenue recognition policies. The subsequent issuance of
SAB 101A has deferred the timing of the adoption of the requirements until the
second quarter of 2000. Management believes that the adoption of SAB 101 will
not have a material effect on our business, financial position or results of
operations.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

         Information about Pegasus' market sensitive financial instruments is
provided below and constitutes a "forward-looking statement." Pegasus' major
market risk exposure is changing interest rates that relate to its credit
facilities, debt obligations and preferred stock. Pegasus' objective in managing
its exposure to interest rate changes is to limit the impact of interest rate
changes on earnings and cash flow and to lower its overall borrowing costs.
Pegasus has entered into interest rate protection agreements on its credit
facility to limit its exposure to market interest rate fluctuations.

         Pegasus Media & Communications maintained a $180.0 million senior,
reducing revolving credit facility. Interest on the credit facility was
calculated at either the bank's base rate or LIBOR, plus an applicable margin.
The credit facility was amended and restated in January 2000.

         Digital Television Services maintained a $70.0 million senior, reducing
revolving credit facility and a $20.0 million senior term credit facility.
Interest on the credit facilities was calculated at either the bank's base rate
or the Eurodollar rate, plus an applicable margin. The credit facilities were
refinanced in January 2000 with the first amended and restated Pegasus Media &
Communications credit facility.

         In January 2000, Pegasus Media & Communications entered into a first
amended and restated credit facility, which consists of a $225.0 million senior
revolving credit facility and a $275.0 million senior term credit facility. As
of March 31, 2000, stand-by-letters of credit amounting to $40.6 million were
issued pursuant to its $225.0 million revolving credit facility and $275.0
million was outstanding under its $275.0 million senior term credit facility.
Availability of borrowings under the revolving credit facility will reduce by
specified amounts quarterly commencing on March 31, 2001 through maturity. The
term credit facility is to be repaid in specified amounts quarterly commencing
on March 31, 2001, with the balance due at maturity. Interest on the credit
facility is calculated at either the bank's base rate or LIBOR, plus an
applicable margin. The revolving credit facility expires in October 2004 and the
term credit facility expires in April 2005.

         Commensurate with the closing of the first amended and restated Pegasus
Media & Communications credit facility, Pegasus Media & Communications borrowed
$275.0 million under the term loan, outstanding balances under Pegasus Media &
Communications' existing $180.0 million credit facility and Digital Television
Services' existing $90.0 million credit facilities were repaid and commitments
under Digital Television Services' credit facilities were terminated.

         As of March 31, 2000, Pegasus estimated the fair value of its debt and
preferred stock to be approximately $766.9 million and $529.7 million
respectively, using quoted market prices. The market risk associated with
Pegasus' debt and preferred stock is the potential increase in fair value
resulting from a decrease in interest rates. A 10% decrease in assumed interest
rates would increase the fair value of Pegasus' debt and preferred stock to
approximately $777.8 million and $552.3 million, respectively.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         DIRECTV/NRTC Litigation. Please refer to the disclosure relating to
this matter set forth under "Item 3: Legal Proceedings" on pages 25 and 26 of
Pegasus' Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 10, 2000 for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.

         DBS Late Fee Litigation. In November 1998 we were sued in Indiana for
allegedly charging DBS subscribers excessive fees for late payments. The
plaintiffs, who claim to represent a class consisting of residential DIRECTV
customers in Indiana, seek unspecified damages for the purported class and
modification of our late-fee policy. On March 20, 2000, an order for stipulation
of dismissal without prejudice was signed by a judge of the Superior Court
Division II of Hamilton County, Indiana dismissing without prejudice all claims
asserted by the plaintiffs against Pegasus.

         Other Matters. In addition to the matters discussed above, from time to
time we are involved with claims that arise in the normal course of our
business. In our opinion, the ultimate liability with respect to these claims
will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated operations, cash
flows or financial position.


ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

         On March 22, 2000, a special meeting of Pegasus' stockholders was held.
At this meeting, votes were cast to approve (i) the merger agreement relating to
the acquisition of Golden Sky Holdings, Inc. by Pegasus and the transactions
contemplated thereby ("Proposal 1"), (ii) the proposal to amend the Pegasus
Restricted Stock Plan to increase the number of shares of Class A Common Stock
that may be issued thereunder from 350,000 to 750,000 ("Proposal 2"), (iii) the
proposal to amend the Pegasus Stock Option Plan to increase the number of shares
of Class A Common Stock that may be issued thereunder from 1,300,000 to
3,000,000 and to increase the maximum number of shares of Class A Common Stock
that may be issued under options granted to any employee from 550,000 to
1,000,000 ("Proposal 3"), (iv) the proposal to amend Pegasus' certificate of
incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Class A Common
Stock from 50,000,000 to 250,000,000 shares ("Proposal 4"), (v) the proposal to
amend Pegasus' certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized
shares of Class B Common Stock from 15,000,000 to 30,000,000 shares ("Proposal
5"), (vi) the proposal to amend Pegasus' certificate of incorporation to
increase the number of authorized shares of non-voting common stock from
20,000,000 to 200,000,000 shares ("Proposal 6"), and (vii) the proposal to amend
Pegasus' certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized
shares of preferred stock from 5,000,000 to 20,000,000 shares ("Proposal 7").
Approval of Proposal 5 required the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of
the total voting power of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and
Class B Common Stock voting separately and not as a single class. At the special
meeting, 11,542,343 shares of Class A Common Stock and 4,581,900 shares of Class
B Common Stock were present at the meeting in person or by proxy. After giving
effect to each holder of Class A Common Stock being entitled to one vote per
share and all holders of Class B Common Stock being entitled to ten votes per
share, an aggregate of 57,361,343 votes were entitled to be cast at the meeting.
The results of the votes were as follows:

         Proposal 7 required the approval of the holders of the Series A
preferred stock and Series C convertible preferred stock voting together as a
single class. Pegasus solicited written consents from such holders. Of the
3,143,684 shares of Series A preferred stock and Series C convertible preferred
stock issued and outstanding, 1,764,719 consents were received in favor of
Proposal 7, 237,288 consents were voted against Proposal 7, and 39,953
abstentions were received.

         As a result of the special meeting and consent solicitation, each of
the proposals were approved.
