              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

1.    OPERATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

      Able Telcom Holding Corp. and subsidiaries ("Able" or the "Company")
      specializes in the design, installation, maintenance and system
      integration of advanced communication networks for voice, data and video
      systems. These services are provided for an array of complimentary
      applications, including telecommunications infrastructure, traffic
      management systems, automated manufacturing systems and utility networks.

      In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated
      financial statements furnished herein include all adjustments, consisting
      of only recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the

      entire year. The condensed consolidated financial statements contained
      herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
      statements and related notes contained in the Company's 1997 Annual Report
      on Form 10-K ("Form 10-K").

      The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
      have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
      principles for interim financial information and with the instructions on
      Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not
      include all of the information and footnotes required for complete
      financial statements.

      Certain items in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of

2.    ACQUISITIONS

      On December 2, 1996, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary,
      acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Dial Communications, Inc.
      ("Dial"). As consideration, the Company paid $3.0 million in cash, issued
      108,489 shares of common stock and issued an $0.9 million promissory note.
      The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting
      in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 16, BUSINESS
      COMBINATIONS ("APB No. 16"), and approximately $1.5 million of goodwill
      was recorded which is being amortized on a straight line basis over 20
      years. The results of operations of Dial have been included since the date
      of acquisition. The cash component of the purchase was funded in part from
      the Company's line of credit and the remainder through a $1.9 million term
      loan from a bank. On July 15, 1997, this initial debt was repaid with an
      approximately $3.0 million term note.

      On February 25, 1998, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary,
      Georgia Electric Company ("GEC") acquired substantially all of the assets
      and assumed certain liabilities of COMSAT RSI Acquisition, Inc. (d/b/a/
      COMSAT RSI JEFA Wireless Systems) ("COMSAT"), a subsidiary of COMSAT
      Corporation. As part of the transaction, GEC assumed certain construction
      contracts with the Texas Department of Transportation and various other
      telecommunications customers. GEC acquired the accounts receivable and
      fixed assets of the seller, assumed its trade payables, and received a
      cash payment from the seller at closing of approximately $4.7 million. In
      addition, the Company recorded significant accruals related to the
      contracts assumed of approximately $12.5 million, of which approximately
      $4.9 million remains outstanding at July 31, 1998 and is reflected as
      accrued and other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet.
      The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting
      in accordance with APB No. 16.

      On April 1, 1998, the Company purchased all of the outstanding common
      stock of Patton Management Corporation ("Patton") for a total purchase
      price of approximately $4.0 million, of which approximately $1.7 million
      was

                                        6

<PAGE>
                   ABLE TELCOM HOLDING CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

      funded by the Company's revolving credit facility (See Note 3). The
      acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in
      accordance with APB No. 16. Approximately $2.8 million in goodwill was
      recorded, which is being amortized on a straight line basis over 20 years.
      The results of operations of Patton have been included since the date of
      acquisition. In connection with the acquisition, approximately $3.6
      million in long-term debt outstanding at Patton, excluding that related to
      capital lease obligations, was repaid in April 1998 from the Company's
      revolving credit facility.

      On July 2, 1998, Able acquired all of the outstanding common stock of MFS
      Network Technologies, Inc. ("MFSNT") from MFS Communications Company, Inc.
      ("MFSCC"), a subsidiary of Worldcom, Inc. ("WorldCom") pursuant to a
      merger agreement dated April 26, 1998. The purchase price was originally
      equal to the shareholders' equity of MFSNT as of March 31, 1998, subject
      to certain adjustments, including adding back the cumulative advance by
      MFSCC or its affiliates to MFSNT, plus $10.0 million. The purchase price
      at that time was projected to be $101.4 million, as well as additional
      consideration in the form of options as described below. On September 9,
      1998, the Company and WorldCom Network Services, Inc. ("WorldCom
      Network"), a wholly owned subsidiary of WorldCom, as assignee from MFSCC,
      entered into an agreement amending various terms of the transaction (the
      "September Agreement").

      The September Agreement, among other things, finalizes the purchase price
      at approximately $58.8 million (which was determined by negotiation
      without reference to the original purchase formula), subject to additional
      amounts payable as contingent consideration which relate to the resolution
      of certain preacquisition contingencies for pending litigation, claims and
      assessments and losses on certain projects, as well as additional
      consideration in the form of both options and a phantom stock award or
      other equity participation award as described below. Any additional
      amounts payable will be due and payable on December 29, 2000.

      As of July 31, 1998 the Company paid $33.6 million of the consideration in
      cash, and temporarily financed the remainder, a seller note originally
      issued for $86.4 million, with a 12% note ("MFSNT Note") delivered to
      MFSCC. As security for the MFSNT Note and an indemnity agreement, the
      Company has pledged to Worldcom and MFSCC all of the shares of MFSNT.
      Pursuant to the September Agreement, the MFSNT Note was replaced with a
      new note in the principal amount of $30.0 million on September 9, 1998 at
      an interest rate of 11.5% (the "New Note"). The New Note represents $20.0
      million associated with the purchase price of MFSNT and $10.0 million
      related to an estimated advance for receivables at MFSNT, subject to
      certain adjustments. The New Note matures December 15, 2000, may be
      prepaid without penalty, and will be reduced by the proceeds from the sale
      of certain assets which were acquired in the transaction.

      The cash portion of the purchase price was obtained in part from
      operations, the Company's line of credit and in part through the private
      placement on June 30, 1998 of $20.0 million of the Company's Series B
      Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series B Preferred Stock") See Note 4.

      The Company's senior lender and the holder of the Company's $10.0 million
      12% Senior Subordinated Notes, (the "12% Notes") have consented to the
      MFSNT Note and the stock pledge agreement. In connection with the consent
      of the 12% Notes holders, the Company agreed to prepay the 12% Notes,
      together with a prepayment penalty, on August 31, 1998, which was extended
      until October 2, 1998. See Note 3.

      Pursuant to the merger agreement, the Company agreed with WorldCom, MFSCC
      and its affiliates to assume (a) their obligations under a certain
      Guaranty Agreement in favor of Credit Lyonnais' New York branch, as
      Administrative Agent for lenders, under a Credit Agreement dated November
      1, 1996 between the lenders and Kanas Telcom, Inc., a partially-owned
      affiliate of MFSNT, and (b) their obligations under surety indemnity
      agreements relating to various surety bonds issued in favor of MFSNT.

      In addition, MFSNT entered into a five-year Master Services Agreement with
      WorldCom Network to provide telecommunications infrastructure services to
      WorldCom affiliates for a minimum of $40.0 million per year, provided that
      the aggregate sum payable to MFSNT shall be not less than $325.0 million,
      including a fee of 12% of reimbursable costs under the agreement
      ("Aggregate Sum"). To achieve these established minimums, WorldCom Network
      has agreed to award MFSNT at least 75% of all of WorldCom Network's
      outside plant work related to its local network projects. If MFSNT
      declines any of the first $130.0 million of contract work in any year of
      the agreement, the value of the declined work reduces the Aggregate Sum.
      MFSNT has agreed that WorldCom Network will have met all of its
      obligations to MFSNT to the extent that payments to MFSNT reach an
      aggregate of $500.0 million at any time during the five-year term.

                                        7

      If the MFSNT Note is in default, WorldCom Network's obligations under the
      Master Services Agreement are reduced in certain respects, and it would
      not be obligated to order further work under the Master Services Agreement
      during the period the MFSNT Note remains not paid in full. In addition,
      upon a default under the MFSNT Note, WorldCom and MFSCC have the right to
      retain the shares of MFSNT as well as all payments made by the Company
      under the MFSNT Note, and in certain circumstances WorldCom may have a
      claim against the Company for any balance due under the MFSNT Note in
      excess of the deemed value of MFSNT as calculated under the stock pledge
      agreement.

      Under the merger agreement, the Company is entitled to use the name
      "MFSNT" during the 18-month transition period commencing July 2, 1998, and
      will not be entitled to use it after such 18-month period.

      The Company also granted to MFSCC an option to purchase up to 2,000,000
      shares of the Company's common stock, during the period commencing July 2,
      1998 ending six months after payment of the MFSNT Note, as amended by the
      September Agreement to extend the exercise period. The exercise price is
      $7.00 per share, except that MFSCC may elect to exercise the option, in
      whole or in part, on a "cashless" basis under which it will receive shares
      of common stock with a market value equal to the difference between the
      common stock's then market price and $7.00, subject to a 1,817,941 share
      limitation. Should the options be exercised, MFSCC will be entitled to
      designate a representative to serve on the Company's Board of Directors as
      long as MFSCC retains these shares aggregating at least 5.0% of the then
      outstanding shares. In addition, the Company agreed to issue a phantom
      stock award or other equity participation award which covers an amount
      equivalent to 600,000 shares of the Company's common stock, payable in
      cash, stock or a combination thereof at the Company's option, and is
      exercisable only on the anniversary date of the acquisition for the next
      three years at a price not to be less than 5 3/32 per share nor more than
      30 3/32 per share. The final terms and conditions described in the
      September Agreement are expected to be more fully set forth in certain
      additional agreements between the Company and WorldCom Network expected to
      be finalized in the near future. The consummation of the terms and
      conditions set forth in the September agreement will require certain
      consents and waivers by the New Credit Facility lender as described below.

      The acquisition of MFSNT was accounted for using the purchase method of
      accounting, in accordance with APB No. 16, whereby all assets acquired and
      liabilities assumed were fair-valued, which resulted in negative goodwill
      totaling approximately $50.7 million which was first allocated to fixed
      assets, reducing them to zero, with the remainder reducing the value of
      certain ongoing projects. The results of operations of MFSNT have been
      included since the date of acquisition.

      The following summarizes the fair value of the assets acquired and the
      liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisition of MFSNT on July 2,
      1998 (in millions):

3.    BORROWINGS

      On June 1, 1997, the Company entered into a $6.0 million Line of Credit
      Facility (the "Line of Credit"). The Line of Credit was due March 1, 1998
      with interest payable monthly and contained covenants which required among
      other conditions, that the Company maintain certain tangible net worth,
      working capital and debt service coverage. The Line of Credit was
      collateralized by all real and personal property of the Company. The
      proceeds of the Line of Credit were used to repay existing debt, purchase
      assets and for working capital requirements. This amount was repaid with
      proceeds from the Company's new revolving credit agreement described
      below.

                   ABLE TELCOM HOLDING CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

      Effective January 6, 1998, the Company issued $10.0 million of unsecured
      12% Senior Subordinated Notes due January 6, 2005 (the "12% Notes") with
      detachable warrants to purchase 409,505 shares of common stock at a price
      of $8.25 per share. The warrants were fair valued at approximately $1.2
      million and are reflected as debt discount on the consolidated balance
      sheet at July 31, 1998. Amortization of debt discount for the nine months
      ended July 31, 1998 totaled $0.1 million. Interest under the 12% Notes is
      payable semi-annually in arrears. Equal principal payments are due in
      January 2004 and 2005 giving the 12% Notes an average life of six and
      one-half years. The agreement, pursuant to when the 12% Notes were issued,
      contains covenants which require, among other conditions, that the Company
      maintain certain tangible net worth, minimum fixed charge coverage and
      limitations on total debt and which limit the Company's ability to pay
      dividends and make certain other payments, make investments and sell
      assets or subsidiaries. The proceeds from the issuance of the 12% Notes
      were used for current working capital needs, to pay off existing debts and
      to provide liquidity to finance growth and certain expenditures, including
      acquisitions, associated with the Company's overall strategic plan.
      Between May 29, 1998 and September 17, 1998, the Company received either
      waivers and/or consents, or letters of forbearance relating to the
      acquisition of MFSNT and the related financing of the acquisition. These
      letters also accelerated the expiration date of the 12% Notes to August
      31, 1998, which has been extended through October 16, 1998 by the last
      letter dated September 17, 1998. At July 31, 1998, this amount has been
      reflected as long-term debt as it is expected to be refinanced with long
      term debt. The Company believes that it will be able to refinance or
      further extend the time for payment of the Subordinated Notes due October
      16, 1998. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able
      to so satisfy the Subordinated Notes by such date, or if satisfied, that
      the terms and conditions of such refinancing or extension will not be
      adverse to the Company. Failure to timely satisfy the Subordinated Notes
      would constitute a default under the New Credit Facility (described below)
      and could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

      On April 6, 1998, the Company obtained a $25.0 million three year senior
      secured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") with a $2.0
      million sub-limit for the issuance of standby letter(s) of credit. The
      Credit Facility allowed the Company to select an interest rate based upon
      the prime rate or on a short-term LIBOR, in each case, plus an applicable
      margin, with respect to each draw the Company made thereunder. Interest
      was payable monthly in arrears on base rate advances and at the expiration
      of each interest period for LIBOR advances. The Credit Facility contained
      certain covenants which required, among other conditions, that the Company
      maintain certain net worth, minimum fixed charge coverage and limitations
      on total debt, and was secured by a perfected first priority security
      interest on all tangible assets of the Company. The proceeds of the Credit
      Facility were used to finance working capital requirements and for other
      general corporate purposes, including acquisitions and capital
      expenditures, not to exceed $15.0 million, associated with the Company's
      overall strategic plan. On June 11, 1998, this amount was repaid with
      proceeds from the Company's New Credit Facility defined below.

      On June 11, 1998, the Company replaced the Credit Facility with a new
      $35.0 million three year senior secured revolving credit facility ("New
      Credit Facility") with a $5.0 million sub-limit for the issuance of
      standby letter(s) of credit. The New Credit Facility allows the Company to
      select an interest rate based upon the prime rate or on a short-term
      LIBOR, in each case plus an applicable margin, with respect to each draw
      the Company makes thereunder. Interest is payable monthly in arrears on
      base rate advances and at the expiration of each interest period for LIBOR
      advances. The New Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants
      which require, among other conditions, that the Company maintain certain
      minimum ratios, including current and debt leverage, minimum fixed charge
      coverage, interest coverage, as well as limitations on total debt. The New
      Credit Facility is secured by a perfected first priority security interest
      on all tangible assets of the Company and a pledge of the shares of stock
      of each of the Company's subsidiaries operating in the United States. On
      June 30, 1998, the New Credit Facility was amended to include (i) the
      Company's acquisition of MFSNT and the related financing of such
      transaction, (ii) changes in financial covenants related thereto, and
      (iii) other amendments relating to investments, pledging and intercompany
      matters. The Company is currently engaged in discussions with its senior
      lenders under the New Credit Facility with respect to the waiver or
      consent of various provisions of such Facility (of which it may be in
      violation) arising out of the MFSNT transaction, including the September
      Agreement. The Company also intends to seek additional financing. There
      can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to obtain
      appropriate waivers or consents, or additional financing on commercially
      reasonable terms. The failure to obtain appropriate waivers or consents
      could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The New Credit
      Facility matures in June 2001.

      On July 2, 1998 the Company entered into the MFSNT Note with MFSCC for
      $86.4 million, at an interest rate of 12%, due on August 31, 1998. As
      security for the MFSNT Note and an indemnity agreement, the Company has
      pledged to WorldCom and MFSCC all of the shares of MFSNT. On September 9,
      1998, the MFSNT Note was replaced with a New Note in the principal amount
      of $30.0 million bearing interest at 11.5%. The New Note represents $20.0
      million associated with the purchase price of MFSNT and $10.0 million
      related to an estimated advance for receivables at MFSNT, subject to
      certain adjustments. The New Note matures on December 15, 2000, may be
      prepaid without penalty, and will be reduced by the proceeds from the sale
      of certain assets which were acquired in the transaction.

4.    PREFERRED STOCK

      SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK
      Effective December 20, 1996, the Company completed a private placement
      transaction of 1,000 shares of $.10 par value, Series A Convertible
      Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock") and warrants to purchase
      200,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $9.82 per share. Proceeds
      from the offering totaled $6.0 million. Each share of Series A Preferred
      Stock was convertible into shares of the Company's common stock after
      April 30, 1997 at the lesser of $9.82 per share or at a discount
      (increased to a maximum of 20% for conversions after

      December 20, 1997) of the average closing bid price of a share of common
      stock for three days preceding the date of conversion. This accretion
      adjustment, which also represents the amount needed to accrete to the
      redemption value of the Series A Preferred Stock for the nine months ended
      July 31, 1998, was recorded as a charge to equity and accompanying credit
      to the Series A Preferred Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock accrued
      dividends at an annual rate of 5% and was payable quarterly in arrears in
      cash or through a dividend of additional shares of Series A Preferred
      Stock. The warrants are exercisable during the four year period commencing
      on the first anniversary of the private placement, provided that for each
      share of Series A Preferred Stock which is converted prior to the one year
      anniversary of the placement, warrants to purchase 200 shares of common
      stock were forfeited.

      During the nine months ended July 31, 1998, 995 shares of Series A
      Preferred Stock were converted into an aggregate of 920,946 shares of
      common stock. As of July 31, 1998, all of the shares of Series A Preferred
      Stock have been converted to common stock.

      During the nine months ended July 31, 1998, 106,800 warrants were
      forfeited and 62,200 warrants remain outstanding.

      SERIES B PREFERRED STOCK
      Effective June 30, 1998, the Company completed a private placement
      transaction of 4,000 shares of $0.10 par value, Series B Convertible
      Preferred Stock (the "Series B Preferred Stock") and warrants to purchase
      1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $19.80 per share.
      Proceeds from the offering totaled $20.0 million which were used to pay a
      portion of the MFSNT purchase price as well as other costs associated with
      the acquisition. In general, each share of Series B Preferred Stock is
      convertible into shares of the Company's common stock commencing on June
      30, 1998 at 97% at the lesser of the (i) average of the low trading prices
      for any three days during the twenty-two (22) trading days immediately
      preceding the conversion date, or (ii) the low trading price on the day
      immediately preceding the conversion date, subject to a minimum equal to
      95% of such conversion price, unless waived by a holder on not less than
      61 days prior written notice, no holder may convert an amount which would
      result in such holders beneficial ownership exceeding 4.99% of the
      Company's common stock. The accretion adjustment attributable to the
      beneficial conversion feature of $0.6 million has been recorded as a
      charge to equity and an accompanying credit to the Series B Preferred
      Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock accrues dividends at an annual rate of
      4% and is payable quarterly in arrears, in cash, or through a dividend of
      shares of the Company's common stock. The warrants are exercisable over a
      five year period commencing June 30, 1998 and are fair valued at $5.4
      million in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
      123 ("SFAS No. 123"), "ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK BASED COMPENSATION," and will
      be amortized as a dividend over five years.

      During the three months ended July 31, 1998, dividends of $0.2 million
      were recorded consisting of $0.1 million as the cumulative dividend and
      $0.1 million for the amortization of the valuation of the warrants. None
      of the Series B Preferred Stock had been converted nor had any warrants
      been exercised as of July 31, 1998. Costs incurred in connection with the
      offering of approximately $1.0 million will be expensed over the five year
      conversion period commencing June 30, 1998.

      On September 14, 1998, 200 shares of the Series B Preferred Stock were
      converted into 461,907 shares of common stock at a price of $2.18 per
      share.

5.    STOCK OPTION PLAN

      In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
      SFAS No. 123, which requires expanded disclosures of stock based
      compensation arrangements with employees and encourages compensation cost
      to be measured based on the fair value of the equity instrument. Under
      SFAS No. 123, companies are permitted to continue to apply Accounting
      Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to
      Employees," which recognizes compensation cost based on the intrinsic
      value of the equity instrument awarded. The Company has elected to
      continue to apply APB Opinion No. 25, and related Interpretations in
      accounting for its employee stock options because the alternative fair
      value accounting provided for under SFAS No. 123 requires use of option
      valuation models that were not developed for use in valuing employee stock
      options. Under APB 25, to the extent the exercise price of the Company's
      employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on
      the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized. The following is
      the pro forma effect on net income an earnings per share as if the Company
      had adopted the expense recognition requirement of SFAS No. 123:

      Under the Company's 1995 Stock Option Plan, as amended, up to 1.3 million

6.    EARNINGS PER SHARE

      In February 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 128, "EARNINGS PER SHARE",
      which changes the method of calculating earnings per share and was
      effective for the Company beginning with the quarter ended January 31,
      1998. All periods presented have been restated in accordance with the

7.    LITIGATION

      On May 21, 1998, SIRIT Technologies, Inc. ("SIRIT") filed a lawsuit in the
      United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida, against
      the company and Thomas M. Davidson, who has since become a member of the
      Company's Board of Directors. SIRIT asserts claims against the Company for
      tortious interference, fraudulent inducement, negligent misrepresentation
      and breach of contract in connection with the Company's agreement to
      purchase the shares of MFSNT (See Note 7) and seeks injunctive relief and
      compensatory damages in excess of $100.0 million. In the opinion of
      management, the lawsuit will not have a material adverse effect upon the
      consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company.
      The Company intends to vigorously defend this matter.

      On September 10, 1998, Shipping Financial Services Corp. ("SFSC") filed a
      lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of
      Florida against the Company, Chairman of the Board Gideon Taylor, Chief
      Executive Officer Frazier L. Gaines, Chief Accounting Officer Jesus
      Dominguez, and Chief Financial Officer Mark A. Shain. SFSC asserts claims
      under the federal securities laws against the Company and four of its
      officers that the defendants allegedly caused the Company to falsely
      represent and mislead the public with respect to two acquisitions, COMSAT
      and MFSNT, and the ongoing financial condition of the Company as a result
      of the acquisitions and the related financing of those acquisitions. SFSC
      seeks certification as a class action on behalf of itself and all others
      similarly situated and seeks unspecified damages and attorneys' fees.
      Management is currently assessing the allegations set forth in the
      lawsuits and the Company intends to vigorously defend this matter.

      Although the Company has not yet been served, it is aware of the filing of
      additional shareholder lawsuits. The allegations of these lawsuits appear
      to be based on allegations similar to those set forth in the SFSC lawsuit.
      The Company intends to vigorously defend these similar lawsuits as well.

      The Company is party, from time to time, to other various legal
      proceedings. In the opinion of management, none of these other proceedings
      are expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's
      consolidated financial position or results of operations.

   
8.    RESTATEMENT OF QUARTERLY AMOUNTS

      Quarterly amounts have been adjusted from amounts previously reported by
      the Company in their quarterly filings with the SEC for adjustments
      related to a) the beneficial conversion feature associated with the 
      Series B Preferred Stock; b) the recognition of certain contract revenues;
      and c) several adjustments for depreciation and miscellaneous accruals.

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

      The following discussion and analysis relates to the financial condition
      and results of operations of the Company for the three and nine months
      ended July 31, 1998 and 1997. This information should be read in
      conjunction with the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements
      appearing elsewhere in this document. Except for historical information
      contained herein, the matters discussed below contain forward looking
      statements that involve risk and uncertainties, including but not limited
      to economic, governmental and technological factors affecting the
      Company's operations, markets and profitability.

      As a result of three acquisitions during the nine month period ended July
      31, 1998, primarily the acquisition of MFS Network Technologies Inc.
      ("MFSNT"), material changes exist in substantially all balance sheet and
      statements of operations categories.

      RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, selected
      elements of the Company's condensed statements of operations as a
      percentage of its revenues.

      The following table sets forth the selected elements of the Company's
      condensed statement of operations for MFSNT as a percentage of
      revenues for the period July 3 through July 31, 1998.

      For the quarter ended July 31, 1998 revenues increased $36.3 million over
      the same period in the prior year from $22.0 million to $58.3 million. For
      the nine months ended July 31, 1998 revenues increased $53.9 million from
      $61.2 million through July 31, 1997 to $115.1 for the nine months ended
      July 31, 1998. These increases in revenue are due primarily to growth of
      the Company's Operations through the acquisition of MFSNT in the third
      quarter and the acquisition of COMSAT RSI JEFA Wireless Systems ("COMSAT")
      and Patton Management Corporation ("Patton") in the second quarter of
      fiscal 1998, as well as increased demands for services in the traffic
      management and telecommunications industry. For the quarter ended July 31,
      1998 revenues increased by approximately $19.2 million, $5.1 million and
      $7.5 million related to the acquisitions of MFSNT, COMSAT, and Patton,
      respectively. For the nine months ended July 31, 1998 the revenue growth
      associated with the acquisitions was $19.2 million, $15.5 million and
      $10.3 million, respectively.

      As a percentage of revenues, cost of revenues decreased from 80.14% to
      79.95% for the three months ended compared to the same period in the prior
      year. For the nine month period ended July 31, 1998 and 1997 cost of
      revenues as a percentage of revenues increased slightly from 77.89% to
      78.37%. The increases are due to increased cost related to the
      telecommunications service group resulting from tighter margins and
      competition in the telecommunications industry, as well as inclement
      weather which restricted some work during the winter months and extended
      completion dates into later periods, offset by decreased cost related to
      the traffic management group acquisition of COMSAT's operations.

      General and administrative expenses increased $3.2 million from $2.1
      million to $5.3 million for the three months ended July 31, 1998 compared
      to the same period in the previous year. For the nine month ended July 31,
      1998 general and administrative expenses were $14.7 million, an increase
      of $8.4 over the same period in the prior year. These increases are due to
      the overall increase in the management structure, at the corporate level
      as well as the division offices, necessary to support the Company's
      increased revenue in accordance with the Company's strategic objective of
      growth through acquisition and an increase in cost resulting from the
      acquisition of MFSNT. For the three and nine month period ended July 31,
      1998 general and administrative expense relating to the operations of
      MFSNT were approximately $1.7 million.

      As a percentage of revenues, depreciation and amortization expense
      decreased from 5.45% to 3.49% for the three months ended July 31, 1998 as
      compared to the same period in the prior year. For the nine month period
      ended July 31, 1998 the depreciation and amortization expense as a
      percentage of revenue decreased from 5.29% to 4.23% as compared to the
      same period in 1997. This decrease, as a percentage of revenue, is due to
      the significant increase in revenues which did not require the same
      percentage increase in capital assets to support the operations of the
      Company. The MFSNT acquisition resulted in negative goodwill which
      resulted in the reduction in the depreciable base of the fixed assets to
      zero. Therefore no depreciation is recorded for the MFSNT operations.

      For the quarter ended July 31, 1998 income from operations for the
      Company was $4.3 million compared to income of $1.0 million in the
      quarter ended July 31, 1998. For the nine months ended July 31, 1998 
      income from operations was $5.3 million compared to $3.9 million for the
      same period in the prior year as discussed above.

      Other expense, net increased by $2.4 million to $2.5 for the three month
      period ended July 31, 1998 as compared to $0.1 million for the comparable
      period in 1997. This increase is due to increased interest cost relating
      to the acquisition of MFSNT, the write-off of loan cost on the Bank Of
      America credit facility of approximately $0.2 million, and a noncash
      expense of approximately $0.1 million relating to the earnout agreement
      associated with the acquisition of GEC. Other expense, net was also
      impacted by noncash charges associated with stock option granted at below
      market prices, the amortization of the cost basis of the warrants issued
      in conjunction with the Series B preferred stock and amortization of loan
      cost associated with the Nations Bank revolver. Other expense, net
      increased by $2.4 million to $3.1 million for the nine month period ended
      July 31, 1998 from the same period in 1997 for the same reasons discussed
      above.
    

      The Company has provided income taxes at a rate which approximates the
      rate used when applying federal and state statutory rates to pre-tax
      income, after adjusting for the amortization of nondeductible goodwill.

   
      Net income before the discount attributable to beneficial conversion
      privilege of preferred stock and preferred dividends for the three months
      ended July 31, 1998 decreased $0.1 million from $.9 million in 1997 to
      $0.8 million in 1998. For the nine months ended July 31, 1998 net income
      before the discount attributable to beneficial conversion privilege of
      preferred stock and preferred dividends was $0.7 million compared to $2.3
      million for the comparable period in 1997.

      Income (loss) applicable to common stock was $(7.2) million and $(7.4)
      million for the three and nine months ending July 31, 1998 as compared to
      $.5 million and $1.2 million for the three and nine months ended July 31,
      1997, respectively. On a diluted basis, income (loss) per share was
      $(0.72) per share for the three months ended July 31, 1998 as compared to
      $.06 per share for the same period in 1997. For the nine month period
      ended July 31, 1998 income (loss) per share on a diluted basis was $(0.77)
      compared to $.14 for the nine months ended July 31, 1997.
    

      LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      Cash and cash resources were $5.1 million at July 31, 1998 compared to
      $6.2 million at October 31, 1997.

      Cash provided from operating activities of $5.9 million is a result of net
      income generated by the Company of $2.6 million for the nine month period,
      increased by depreciation and amortization charges of $4.5 million, $0.8
      million for contingent consideration for a non-cash charge related to the
      acquisition of GEC, and $0.8 million for a non-cash charge for the
      accretive dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock, and offset by
      increases in accounts receivable balances due to increased revenues as a
      result of the Company's significant growth in operations.

      Cash used in investing activities of $10.0 million is due to net capital
      expenditures required to support increased operations and replacement of
      existing equipment and net expenditures for acquisitions of businesses.

      Cash provided from financing activities of approximately $2.9 million is
      due primarily to net increases in long term debt and other borrowings in
      order to fund the acquisitions of MESNT and Patton, general corporate
      needs, and working capital requirements.

                   ABLE TELCOM HOLDING CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

      Effective January 6, 1998, the Company issued $10.0 million of 12%
      unsecured Senior Subordinated Notes due January 6, 2005 (the "12% Notes")
      with detachable warrants to purchase 409,505 shares of common stock at a
      price of $8.25 per share. The warrants were valued at approximately $1.2
      million and are reflected as debt discount on the consolidated balance
      sheet at July 31, 1998. Amortization of debt discount for the nine months
      ended July 31, 1998 totaled $0.1 million. Interest under the Notes is
      payable semi-annually in arrears. Equal principal payments are due in
      January 2004 and 2005 giving the Notes an average life of 6.5 years. The
      agreement pursuant to which the Notes were issued contains covenants which
      require, among other conditions, that the Company maintain certain
      tangible net worth, minimum fixed charge coverage and limitations on total
      debt and which limit the Company's ability to pay dividends and make
      certain other payments, make investments and sell assets or subsidiaries.
      The proceeds from issuance of the Notes were used for current working
      capital needs, to pay off existing debt and to provide liquidity to
      finance growth and certain expenditures, including acquisitions,
      associated with the Company's overall strategic plan. Between May 29, 1998
      and September 17, 1998, the Company received either waivers and/or
      consents, or letters of forbearance relating to the acquisition of MFSNT
      and the related financing of the acquisition. These letters also
      accelerated the expiration date of the 12% Notes to August 31, 1998, which
      has been extended through October 16, 1998 by the last letter dated
      September 17, 1998. At July 31, 1998, this amount has been reflected as
      long-term debt as it is expected to be refinanced with long-term debt. The
      Company believes that it will be able to refinance or further extend the
      time for payment of the Subordinated Notes due October 16, 1998. However,
      there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to so satisfy the
      Subordinated Notes by such date, or if satisfied, that the terms and
      conditions of such refinancing or extension will not be adverse to the
      Company. Failure to timely satisfy the Subordinated Notes would constitute
      a default under the New Credit Facility (described below) and could have a
      material adverse effect on the Company.

      In addition to the 12% Notes, on April 6, 1998, the Company obtained a
      $25.0 million three year senior secured revolving credit facility (the
      "Credit Facility") with a $2.0 million sub-limit for the issuance of
      standby letter(s) of credit. The Credit Facility allows the Company to
      select an interest rate based upon the prime rate or on a short-term
      LIBOR, in each case, plus an applicable margin, with respect to each draw
      the Company makes thereunder. Interest was payable monthly in arrears on
      base rate advances and at the expiration of each period for LIBOR
      advances. The Credit Facility contained certain covenants which require,
      among other conditions, that the Company maintain certain net worth,
      minimum fixed charge coverage and limitations on total debt, and was
      secured by a perfected first priority security interest on all tangible
      assets of the Company. The proceeds of the Credit Facility were used to
      finance working capital requirements and for other general corporate
      purposes, including acquisitions and equipment capital expenditures, not
      to exceed $15.0 million, associated with the Company's overall strategic
      plan. On June 11, 1998 this amount was repaid with proceeds from the
      Company's New Credit Facility defined below.

      On June 11, 1998, the Company replaced the Credit Facility with a new
      $35.0 million three year senior secured revolving credit facility ("New
      Credit Facility") with a $5.0 million sub-limit for the issuance of
      standby letter(s) of credit. The Credit Facility allows the Company to
      select an interest rate based upon the prime rate or on a short-term
      LIBOR, in each case plus an applicable margin, with respect to each draw
      it makes thereunder. Interest will be payable monthly in arrears on base
      rate advances and at the expiration of each interest period for LIBOR
      advances. The New Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants
      which require, among other conditions, that the Company maintain certain
      minimum ratios, including current and debt leverage, minimum fixed charge
      coverage, interest coverage, as well as limitations on total debt. The New
      Credit Facility will be secured by a perfected first priority security
      interest on all tangible assets of the Company and a pledge of the shares
      of stock of each of the Company's subsidiaries operating in the United
      States. The Company is currently engaged in discussions with its senior
      lenders under the New Credit Facility with respect to the waiver or
      consent of various provisions of such Facility (of which it may be in
      violation) arising out of the MFSNT transaction, including the September
      Agreement. The Company also intends to seek additional financing. There
      can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to obtain
      appropriate waivers or consents, or additional financing on commercially
      reasonable terms. The failure to obtain appropriate waivers or consents
      could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The New Credit
      Facility matures in June 2001.

      On July 2, 1998 the Company entered into the MFSNT Note with MFSCC for
      $86.4 million, at an interest rate of 12%, due on August 31, 1998. As
      security for the MFSNT Note and an indemnity agreement, the Company has
      pledged to WorldCom and MFSCC all of the shares of MFSNT. On September 9,
      1998, the MFSNT Note was replaced with a New Note in the principal amount
      of $30.0 million bearing interest at 11.5%. The New Note represents $20.0
      million associated with the purchase price of MFSNT and $10.0 million
      related to an estimated advance for receivables at MFSNT, subject to
      certain adjustments. The New Note matures on December 15, 2000, may be
      prepaid without penalty, and will be reduced by the proceeds from the sale
      of certain assets which were acquired in the transaction.

      The amount available under the New Credit Facility was used to repay
      existing secured indebtedness, and will be used to finance working capital
      requirements of existing and acquired businesses, to fund acquisitions and
      capital expenditures and for other general corporate purposes. The Company
      expects that its cash on hand, cash flow from operations and available
      borrowing capacity under the New Credit Facility will be sufficient to
      fund its capital requirements for the next twelve months. There can be no
      assurance, however, that the Company will not experience adverse operating
      results, including the inability to refinance the 12% Notes, or other
      factors which could materially increase its cash requirements.

      YEAR 2000

      In 1996, the Company initiated a conversion from existing accounting
      software to programs that are Year 2000 compliant. Management has
      determined that the Year 2000 issue will not pose significant operational
      problems for its computer systems. As a result, all costs associated with
      this conversion, excluding those related to the purchase of new software
      which will be capitalized, are being expensed as incurred. The Company
      plans to utilize both internal and external resources to reprogram or
      replace, and test the software for Year 2000 modifications and anticipates
      completing its conversions prior to October 31, 1999 at a total projected
      cost of $0.3 million.

      The Company has also initiated formal communications with all of its
      significant suppliers and large customers to determine the extent to which
      the Company's interface systems are vulnerable to those third parties'
      failures to remediate their own Year 2000 issue.

PART II.       OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.        LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

      On May 21, 1998, SIRIT Technologies, Inc. ("SIRIT") filed a lawsuit in the
      United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida, against
      the company and Thomas M. Davidson, who has since become a member of the
      Company's Board of Directors. SIRIT asserts claims against the Company for
      tortious interference, fraudulent inducement, negligent misrepresentation
      and breach of contract in connection with the Company's agreement to
      purchase the shares of MFSNT (See Note 7) and seeks injunctive relief and
      compensatory damages in excess of $100.0 million. In the opinion of
      management, the lawsuit will not have a material adverse effect upon the
      consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company.
      The Company intends to vigorously defend this matter.

      On September 10, 1998, Shipping Financial Services Corp. ("SFSC"), filed a
      lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of
      Florida against the Company, Chairman of the Board Gideon Taylor, Chief
      Executive Officer Frazier L. Gaines, Chief Accounting Officer Jesus
      Dominguez, and Chief Financial Officer Mark A. Shain. SFSC asserts claims
      under the federal securities laws against the Company and four of its
      officers that the defendants allegedly caused the Company to falsely
      represent and mislead the public with respect to two acquisitions, COMSAT
      and MFSNT, and the ongoing financial condition of the Company as a result
      of the acquisitions and the related financing of those acquisitions. SFSC
      seeks certification as a class action on behalf of itself and all others
      similarly situated and seeks unspecified damages and attorneys' fees.
      Management is currently assessing the allegations set forth in the
      lawsuits and the Company intends to vigorously defend this matter.

      Although the Company has not yet been served, it is aware of the filing of
      additional shareholder lawsuits. The allegations of these lawsuits appear
      to be based on allegations similar to those set forth in the SFSC lawsuit.
      The Company intends to vigorously defend these similar lawsuits as well.

      The Company is party, from time to time, to other various legal
      proceedings. In the opinion of management, none of these other proceedings
      are expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's
      consolidated financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 2.        CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

      On April 24, 1998, the Company granted to each of its Directors, options
      to purchase 10,000 shares of the Company's common stock, (an aggregate of
      60,000 shares) par value $.001 per share. The options were granted under
      the Company's 1995 Stock Option Plan, as amended, as compensation for
      prior service and are non-qualified, vest immediately and are exercisable
      at $6.20 per share, which represents 80% of the stock price on the date of
      grant, through April 24, 2005.

      On April 24, 1998, the Company also granted to each of its Directors,
      additional options to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company's common stock
      (aggregate of 120,000 shares), par value $.001 per share, at an exercise
      price equal to the fair market value on the day immediately following the
      announcement of the acquisition of MFSNT. The options were granted under
      the Company's 1995 Stock Option Plan, as amended, as compensation for each
      Director's efforts in connection with the acquisition of MFSNT (see Note 2
      to Consolidated Financial Statements), are non-qualified, vested on July
      3, 1998, and are exercisable at $11.9375 per share through July 3, 2004.

      On April 24, 1998, the Company accelerated the vesting of 35,000 options
      which were granted in 1997 for an employee and a consultant for the
      Company.

      On June 23, 1998, the Company issued 30,000 shares of common stock to
      Silverton International Fund, Ltd. upon exercising warrants previously
      granted in connection with the Company's Series A Preferred Stock. Such
      shares were issued pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of
      1933, as amended, as an exchange with existing security holders
      exclusively.

      Effective June 30, 1998 (the "Closing"), the Company completed a private
      placement offering ("Offering") of its securities to seven accredited
      investors pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D and Section 4(2) of the
      Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). Each investor was provided
      with, or otherwise has access to, information, including financial
      information, concerning the Company. The proceeds from the Offering to the
      Company of $20 million was used in connection with the Company's
      acquisition of MFS Network Technologies, Inc.

      The Offering consisted of (i) four thousand (4,000) shares of non-voting,
      five-year Series B Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series B Preferred
      Stock"), which pay a 4% dividend per annum, payable quarterly in common
      stock or cash, at the Company's option, and (ii) warrants ("Warrants") to
      purchase an aggregate of 1 million shares of common stock of the Company.

      At any time following the Closing, a holder may convert any or all of the
      Series B Preferred Stock into shares of common stock, par value $.001, of
      the Company. At maturity, June 25, 2003 ("Maturity"), an remaining
      outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock will automatically convert
      into common stock. The conversion price of each share of Series B
      Preferred Stock into a share of common stock is equal to a 3% discount of
      the lesser of (a) the average of the low stock price of the common stock
      during any three trading days in the last 22 trading days immediately
      preceding the date of conversion, or (b) the low stock price on the
      trading day immediately preceding the date of conversion, provided that
      any conversions pursuant to (b) are subject to a minimum equal to 95% of
      such conversion price, unless waived by a holder on not less than 61 days
      prior written notice, no holder may convert an amount which would result
      in such holders beneficial ownership interest exceeding 4.99% of the
      Company's common stock. The conversion price may be further reduced upon
      the occurrence of certain dilutive issuances of the Company's securities.

      The Warrants are exercisable for a period of five years commencing as of
      the Closing through Maturity, at $19.80 per share, which represents 110%
      of the market price of the common stock as of Closing. The Warrants may be
      exercised on a cashless basis by surrendering the appropriate number of
      Warrants. The Warrants may be called by the Company at $35.00 per share.

      The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and the Warrants are entitled
      to certain registration rights to register the common stock underlying the
      Series B Preferred Stock and the Warrants pursuant to the Act. In the
      event that such underlying common stock is not registered with the
      Securities and Exchange Commission by late October 1998, is not listed
      with the securities exchanges and/or markets on which the common stock is
      then listed, within a definitive period of time, or various other
      covenants are not complied with, then certain penalties may be incurred to
      certain or all of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and/or
      Warrants, including, among other things, a reduction in the conversion
      and/or exercise price of the applicable securities and/or additional
      monetary payments. Unless waived, the Company expects to have difficulty
      in timely complying with the foregoing registration rights and various
      other covenants. Additionally, so long as any Series B Preferred Stock or
      Warrants are outstanding, the Company is prohibited from declaring or
      paying any dividends or purchasing any equity security of the Company's
      common stock.

      On July 8, 1998, the Company granted options to purchase 230,000 shares of
      the Company's common stock, par value $.001 to various officers,
      directors, and an outside consultant, all of which were granted as
      compensation for certain additional contributions to the MFSNT acquisition
      (see Note 2 to Consolidated Financial Statements). These options were
      granted outside of the 1995 Stock Option Plan, as amended, and are
      non-qualified. The subject options vest immediately or over a period of
      two years and are exercisable at $14.00 through July 8, 2000.

      On July 8, 1998, the Company granted 150,000 shares to two employees of
      the Company at the fair market value of $14.00 per share, pursuant to
      employment agreements. These options are exercisable after one year of
      employment and vest ratably over three years.

      On September 14, 1998, 200 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were
      converted into 461,907 shares of common stock of the Company at an
      exercise price of $2.18 per share.

ITEM 3.        DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

      On June 11, 1998, the Company replaced the Credit Facility with a new
      $35.0 million three year senior secured revolving credit facility ("New
      Credit Facility") with a $5.0 million sub-limit for the issuance of
      standby letter(s) of credit. The Credit Facility allows the Company to
      select an interest rate based upon the prime rate or on a short-term
      LIBOR, in each case plus an applicable margin, with respect to each draw
      it makes thereunder. Interest will be payable monthly in arrears on base
      rate advances and at the expiration of each interest period for LIBOR
      advances. The New Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants
      which require, among other conditions, that the Company maintain certain
      minimum ratios, including current and debt leverage, minimum fixed charge
      coverage, interest coverage, as well as limitations on total debt. The New
      Credit Facility will be secured by a perfected first priority security
      interest on all tangible assets of the Company and a pledge of the shares
      of stock of each of the Company's subsidiaries operating in the United
      States. The Company is currently engaged in discussions with its senior
      lenders under the New Credit Facility with respect to the waiver or
      consent of various provisions of such Facility (of which it may be in
      violation) arising out of the MFSNT transaction, including the September
      Agreement. The Company also intends to seek additional financing. There
      can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to obtain
      appropriate waivers or consents, or additional financing on commercially
      reasonable terms. The failure to obtain appropriate waivers or consents
      could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The New Credit
      Facility matures in June 2001.
