MASTEC, INC. CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS (Continued) (dollars in thousands) (Unaudited) Supplemental disclosure of non-cash investing and financing activities: During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, we completed certain acquisitions which have been accounted for as purchases. The fair value of the net assets acquired totaled $18.0 million and was comprised primarily of $26.9 million of accounts receivable, $8.9 million of property and equipment, $1.0 million of other assets and $5.8 million in cash, offset by $24.6 million of assumed liabilities. The excess of the purchase price over the net assets acquired was $67.3 million and was allocated to goodwill. MasTec also issued 207,171 shares of common stock with a value of $15.8 million related to the payment of contingent consideration from earlier acquisitions. Of the $15.8 million, $0.2 million was recorded as a reduction of other current liabilities and $15.6 million as additional goodwill. During the nine months ended September 30, 1999, we completed certain acquisitions which have been accounted for as purchases. The fair value of the net assets acquired totaled $3.5 million and was comprised primarily of $7.0 million of accounts receivable, $2.1 million of property and equipment, $0.7 million of other assets and $0.3 million in cash, offset by $6.6 million of assumed liabilities. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired was $7.3 million and was allocated to goodwill. We also issued 527,597 shares of common stock with a value of $11.3 million related to the payment of contingent consideration from earlier acquisitions. Of the $11.3 million, $2.3 million was recorded as a reduction of other current liabilities and $9.0 million as additional goodwill. The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements. 7

Note 1 - Basis for Presentation of Consolidated Financial Statements The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of MasTec, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and should be read together with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. The balance sheet data as of December 31, 1999 was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. Certain reclassifications have been made to conform to the 2000 presentation. The financial information furnished reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the quarterly periods presented. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of our future results of operations for the entire year. Our comprehensive income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 was $57.3 million and $20.7 million, respectively. The components of comprehensive income are net income and foreign currency translation adjustments. On June 19, 2000, we effected a three-for-two split of our common stock in the form of a stock dividend to shareholders of record as of May 29, 2000. To reflect the split, common stock was increased and capital surplus was decreased by $1.6 million. All references in the consolidated financial statements to shares and related prices, weighted average number of shares, per share amounts and stock plan data have been adjusted to reflect the stock split on a retroactive basis. Note 2 - Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements 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 is applicable beginning with our fourth quarter 2000 consolidated financial statements. Based on our current analysis of SAB 101, we do not believe it will have a material impact on the financial results of the Company. Note 3 - Acquisitions, Investing and Divestiture Activities During 2000, we completed 10 acquisitions, eight in our external network services group and two in our internal network services group. These acquisitions have been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The most significant adjustments to the balance sheet resulting from these acquisitions are disclosed in the supplemental disclosure of non-cash investing and financing activities in the accompanying statement of cash flows. On June 30, 2000, we sold our PCS system in Latin America which was held for sale for a gain of $9.6 million. During the second quarter, we also recorded a charge of $5.4 million comprised primarily of the write-off of two Latin American operations which has been reflected in other income in the statement of operations. 8

Note 4 - Debt Debt is comprised of the following (in thousands): September 30, December 31, 2000 1999 ------------ ------------ Revolving credit facility at LIBOR plus 1.25% (6.98% at $ - $ 64,000 December 31,1999) Other bank facilities (8.0% at September 30, 2000 and 7.32% 2,344 7,707 at December31, 1999) Notes payable for equipment, at interest rates from 7.5% to 6,140 3,920 8.5% due in installments through the year 2002 Notes payable for acquisitions, at interest rates from 7.0% 4,569 4,254 to 8.0% due in installments through February 2001 Senior Notes, 7.75% due February 2008 195,797 199,777 ------------ ------------ Total debt 208,850 279,658 Less current maturities (8,374) (12,200) ------------ ------------ Long-term debt $ 200,476 $ 267,458 ============ ============ We have a credit facility that provides for borrowings up to an aggregate amount of $100.0 million. Amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility mature on June 9, 2002. We are required to pay an unused facility fee ranging from .25% to .50% per annum on the facility, depending upon certain financial covenants. The credit facility is secured by a pledge of shares of certain of our subsidiaries. Interest under the credit facility accrues at rates based, at our option, on the agent bank's base rate plus a margin of up to .50% depending on certain financial covenants or 1% above the overnight federal funds effective rate, whichever is higher, or the LIBOR Rate (as defined in the credit facility) plus a margin of 1.00% to 2.25%, depending on certain financial covenants. We also have $200.0 million, 7.75% senior subordinated notes due in February 2008 with interest due semi-annually. The credit facility and the senior notes contain customary events of default and covenants which prohibit, among other things, making investments in excess of a specified amount, incurring additional indebtedness in excess of a specified amount, paying dividends in excess of a specified amount, making capital expenditures in excess of a specified amount, creating certain liens, prepaying other indebtedness, including the senior notes, and engaging in certain mergers or combinations without the prior written consent of the lenders. The credit facility also provides that we must maintain certain financial ratio coverage, requiring, among other things minimum ratios at the end of each fiscal quarter of debt to earnings and earnings to interest expense. Note 5 - Operations by Segments and Geographic Areas We currently derive a substantial portion of our revenue from providing external and internal network services to telecommunications, broadband, energy and corporate clients. The segment and geographic area information provided is based on internal reports and was developed and is used by management for the sole purpose of tracking trends and changes in the results of the segments and geographic areas. The information, including the allocations of expenses and overhead, were calculated on a management approach and may not reflect the actual economic costs, contributions or results of operations of the segments and geographic areas as stand alone businesses. If a different basis of presentation or allocation were used, the relative contributions of the segments and geographic areas might differ but the relative trends would not, in management's view, be materially impacted. 9

The following table set forth, for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, certain information about segment results of operations and segment assets (in thousands): External Internal Energy Three Months Network Network Network International Other 2000 Services Services Services (1) (2) Consolidated - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Revenue $ 284,648 $ 46,930 $ 33,882 $ 16,819 $ - $ 382,279 Depreciation 10,492 547 2,027 - 440 13,506 Amortization 1,505 453 202 307 - 2,467 Income before provision 43,690 5,306 2,652 218 (9,348) 42,518 for income taxes and minority interest External Internal Energy Three Months Network Network Network International Other 1999 Services Services Services (1) (2) Consolidated - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Revenue $ 220,601 $ 31,974 $ 38,626 $ 9,891 $ - $ 301,092 Depreciation 7,865 437 3,045 - 428 11,775 Amortization 1,047 249 213 753 - 2,262 Income before provision 34,814 2,106 2,509 522 (10,094) 29,857 for income taxes and minority interest External Internal Energy Nine Months Network Network Network International Other 2000 Services Services Services (1) (2) Consolidated - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Revenue $ 686,657 $ 119,457 $ 108,136 $ 38,420 $ - $ 952,670 Depreciation 30,019 1,538 7,376 - 1,234 40,167 Amortization 3,716 1,008 606 3,313 - 8,643 Income before provision 98,455 12,359 8,652 3,422 (24,059) 98,829 for income taxes and minority interest Capital expenditures 35,945 1,566 2,505 718 - 40,734 Total assets 580,496 100,975 77,993 86,826 91,068 937,358 External Internal Energy Nine Months Network Network Network International Other 1999 Services Services Services (1) (2) Consolidated - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Revenue $ 517,120 $ 72,281 $ 113,762 $ 41,991 $ 1,422 $ 746,576 Depreciation 22,790 1,141 8,750 - 1,188 33,869 Amortization 2,937 758 606 2,381 - 6,682 Income before provision 73,591 3,066 8,733 4,054 (28,415) 61,029 for income taxes and minority interest Capital expenditures 47,739 819 8,128 86 887 57,659 Total assets 408,070 62,148 89,923 137,403 43,995 741,539 (1) Revenue, amortization and capital expenditures relate solely to our Brazilian operations. International income before provision for income taxes and minority interest for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, primarily relates to the sale of our PCS system net of a charge for the write-off of two Latin American operations. For the other periods, income was related solely to our Brazilian operations. Total assets includes $49.4 million and $84.6 million as of September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, related to our Brazilian operations, and the remainder relates to our interest in international non-core assets. 10

(2) Consists of non-core construction and corporate operations, which includes interest expense net of interest income of $11.3 million and $14.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, interest expense net of interest income was $3.1 million and $5.7 million, respectively. Additionally, the severance charge of $1.7 million is also reflected in other. There are no significant transfers between geographic areas and segments. Total assets are those assets used in our operations in each segment. Corporate assets include cash and cash equivalents, real estate assets held for sale and notes receivable. Note 6 - Commitments and Contingencies In November 1997, we filed a lawsuit against Miami-Dade County in Florida state court alleging breach of contract and seeking damages exceeding $3.0 million in connection with the county's refusal to pay amounts due us under a multi-year agreement to perform road restoration work for the Miami-Dade Water and Sewer Department ("MWSD"), a department of the county, and the county's wrongful termination of the agreement. The County has refused to pay amounts due to us under the agreement until alleged overpayments under the agreement have been resolved, and has counterclaimed against us seeking unspecified damages. We are vigorously pursuing this lawsuit. We are a party to other pending legal proceedings, none of which, we believe, is material to our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. As part of a management review process, the Company in 2000 adjusted its personnel in certain markets, resulting in a $1.7 million severance charge. Fourteen employees received severance consisting predominantly of cash and immediate vesting of stock options. In the third quarter of 2000, we extended the time period, geographic scope and scope of work under an existing exclusive provider agreement with a telecommunications client, Telergy, Inc. In consideration of these and other modifications to our agreements with the client, we agreed to provide up to $35 million in financing to the client solely to fund our network construction for the client. Our financing was part of a $350 million re-capitalization of the client to fund network construction and development. Interest on the amount financed ranges from 6.25%-7.75% over LIBOR depending on the amount of time the financing has been outstanding. We received warrants at a nominal exercise price to purchase up to 0.7% of the fully diluted outstanding common stock of the client. We agreed to provide an additional $15 million in financing to fund our network construction at the same interest rate; if the additional financing is used we will receive additional warrants at a nominal exercise price to purchase up to 6.0% of the fully diluted outstanding common stock of the client. Our financing is subordinated to the client's senior indebtedness. As of September 30, 2000, the client had drawn $20.1 million on the facility. The facility terminates in April 2002 unless earlier terminated upon certain events, including (a) certain equity or debt issuances, (b) certain asset sales, or (c) a change of control of the client. We own minority interests in Argentina and Spain. Our investment in Argentina is a minority interest with a carrying value of $17.9 million as of September 30, 2000 in Supercanal Holding, S.A., a holding company of numerous cable television operators in western Argentina ("Supercanal"). We also own an indirect minority interest with a carrying value of $4.1 million and have made a $3.0 million working capital loan to Sistemas e Instalaciones de Comunicacion, S.A. ("Sintel"), a Spanish telecommunications infrastructure services provider. Supercanal has defaulted on its third party debt and has filed a petition under Argentine law seeking protection from its creditors. We do not guarantee any of this indebtedness. In January 2000, the majority shareholder of Supercanal approved a capital increase that would have required us to contribute approximately $5.9 million to maintain our interest if the capital increase is effected in full. The capital increase has been challenged in court and we cannot determine whether or when the capital increase will be effected. 11

During the second quarter of 2000, Sintel filed a petition under Spanish law seeking protection from its creditors, including our working capital loan. In July 2000, Sintel approved a capital increase that will require us to contribute approximately $2.6 million to maintain our interest if the capital increase is effected in full. Management is considering whether to subscribe to the capital increase. Although we have determined that the carrying value of these assets has not currently been impaired, we continue to monitor these investments to determine whether a charge is warranted in the future. Our current and future operations and investments in certain foreign countries are generally subject to the risks of political, economic or social instability, including the possibility of expropriation, confiscatory taxation, hyper-inflation or other adverse regulatory or legislative developments, or limitations on the repatriation of investment income, capital and other assets. We cannot predict whether any of such factors will occur in the future or the extent to which such factors would have a material adverse effect on our international operations. 12

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENTS' DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION Except for historical information, the matters discussed below are forward looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements described in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are based on the Company's current expectations and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions relating to the Company's operations, financial condition and results of operations. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from results expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements made by the Company in this Quarterly Report. These and other risks are detailed in documents filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company does not undertake any obligation to revise these forward-looking statements to reflect future events or circumstances. General We design, build, install, maintain and monitor internal and external networks supporting the Internet, Internet-related applications, e-commerce and other communications and energy facilities for leading telecommunications, broadband, energy and other Fortune 500 companies. Based on revenue, we are one of the largest end-to-end telecommunications and energy infrastructure service providers in North America. We offer comprehensive network infrastructure solutions to a diverse group of clients, enabling our clients to connect with their customers. Currently, we operate from approximately 200 locations throughout North America, which accounted for 96% of our revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. Internationally we operate in Brazil through a 51% joint venture which we consolidate net of a 49% minority interest after tax. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, approximately 8% of our domestic revenue was derived from services performed for Bell South, 7% from services performed for Williams Communications and 5% from services performed for each of Qwest/US West, Sprint, Telergy, Level 3 and Comcast. Our top 10 customers combined accounted for approximately 48% of our domestic revenue during the same period. We report our operations in four segments: - External Network Services, - Internal Network Services, - Energy Network Services, and - International.

Revenue from our two combined segments (external network and internal network services) servicing datacom clients increased by 31.3%. Of our three reporting segments, the fastest growing is our internal network services primarily due to growth in services provided at central office facilities resulting from regulatory co-location requirements to open central office facilities to new competitors. Our external network services segment is also growing primarily due to the increased demand for bandwidth by end-users which has spurred increased network construction and upgrades by our clients. Revenue generated by our energy network segment decreased due to unusually wet weather impacting the east coast. During the three months ended September 30, 2000, we completed six acquisitions in our external network segment. Our North American costs of revenue was $277.9 million or 76.0% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2000, compared to $219.1 million or 75.3% of revenue for the same period in 1999. In 2000, margins for external network services and energy network services were impacted by unusually wet weather conditions. Margins for internal network services remained constant despite start-up costs related to the segment's network monitoring services. 14

Depreciation expense was $13.5 million or 3.7% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2000, compared to $11.8 million or 4.0% of revenue for the same period in 1999. The increased depreciation expense resulted from our investment in our fleet to support revenue growth. The decline as a percentage of revenue was due to an increase in revenue from our internal networks segment, which is less capital intensive, and better utilization of our equipment. General and administrative expenses were $24.6 million or 6.7% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2000, compared to $23.3 million or 8.0% of revenue for the same period in 1999. The decline in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2000 was due primarily to our ability to support higher revenue with a relatively lower administrative base. As part of a management review process, the Company in 2000 adjusted its personnel in certain markets, resulting in a $1.7 million severance charge. Nine months ended September 30, 2000 Compared to Nine months ended September 30, 1999 The following table sets forth the revenue and change in revenue by North American operating segments, in dollar and percentage terms (in thousands): Nine months ended September 30, Change --------------------------- ------------------------ 2000 1999 $ % ------------- ------------ ------------ ---------- External Network Services $ 686,657 $ 517,119 $ 169,538 32.8% Internal Network Services 119,457 72,282 47,175 65.3% Energy Network Services 108,136 113,762 (5,626) (4.9%) Other - 1,422 (1,422) (100.0%) ============= ============ ============ -------- $ 914,250 $ 704,585 $ 209,665 29.8% ============= ============ ============ Our North American revenue was $914.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to $704.6 million for the same period in 1999, representing an increase of $209.7 million or 29.8%, primarily from organic growth. Revenue from our two combined segments servicing datacom clients increased by 36.8%. Of our three operating segments, the fastest growing is our internal network services primarily due to growth in services provided at central office facilities resulting from regulatory co-location requirements to open central office facilities to new competitors. Our external network services segment is also growing primarily due to the increased demand for bandwidth by end-users which has spurred increased network construction and upgrades by our customers. Our external energy segment remained relatively constant due to our focus on increasing profitability prior to any future growth and also as a result of unusually wet weather during the third quarter in the east coast. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, we completed 10 acquisitions, eight in our external network segment and two in our internal network services segment. This compares to three acquisitions for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 in our external communication services segment. 15

Our North American costs of revenue were $694.2 million or 75.9% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to $535.5 million or 76.0% of revenue for the same period in 1999. Unusually wet weather in the east coast adversely impacted margins in the 2000 third quarter. Depreciation expense was $40.2 million or 4.4% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to $33.9 million or 4.8% of revenue for the same period in 1999. The increased depreciation expense resulted from our investment in our fleet to support revenue growth. The decline as a percentage of revenue was due to an increase in revenue from our internal network segment, which is less capital intensive, and better utilization of our equipment. General and administrative expenses were $66.8 million or 7.3% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to $59.4 million or 8.4% of revenue for the same period in 1999. The decline in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was due primarily to our ability to support higher revenue with a relatively lower administrative base. As part of a management review process, the Company in 2000 adjusted its personnel in certain markets, resulting in a $1.7 million severance charge. At September 30, 2000, we had a backlog for North America operations of approximately $1.5 billion. Our backlog consists of the uncompleted portion of services we are to perform under project-specific contracts, including the estimated amount of work under our master service agreements. We expect to complete substantially all of our backlog during the next 18 calendar months. International The following tables set forth for the periods indicated our Brazilian operations in dollar and percentage terms (in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine months ended September 30, --------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------- 2000 1999 2000 1999 --------------------- ---------------------- --------------------- --------------------- Revenue $ 16,819 100.0% $ 9,891 100.0% $ 38,420 100.0% $ 41,991 100.0% Costs of revenue 15,489 92.1% 8,613 87.1% 33,009 85.9% 32,598 77.6% Amortization 307 1.8% 753 7.6% 3,313 8.6% 2,381 5.7% General and administrative 1,245 7.4% 1,212 12.2% 4,027 10.5% 5,129 12.2% expenses 16

Three Months Ended September 30, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 1999 Our International operations' functional currency is the Brazilian real. Brazilian revenue was $16.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000, compared to $9.9 million for the same period in 1999, representing an increase of $6.9 million or 69.7%. Brazilian revenue increased primarily due to increased volume under existing master services agreements. Brazil had revenue of R$30.7 million reals during the three months ended September 30, 2000, compared to R$18.9 million reals for the same period in 1999, representing an increase of 62.4%. The average currency exchange rate was 1.83 reals per US dollar for the period ended September 30, 2000 compared to 1.91 reals per US dollar for the same period in 1999. Brazilian costs of revenue were $15.5 million or 92.1% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2000, compared to $8.6 million or 87.1% of revenue for the same period in 1999. The decline in gross margin was due to differences in the staging of projects. Amortization expense was $0.3 million or 1.8% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2000 compared to $0.8 million or 7.6% of revenue for the same period in 1999. Current amortization relates to the purchased goodwill of our Brazilian operations. Prior to June 30, 2000, amortization related primarily to an intangible asset resulting from one acquisition completed in early 1998 that was being amortized over a five year period relative to the volume of work under specified contracts, but was accelerated and fully amortized earlier in 2000. General and administrative expenses were $1.2 million or 7.4% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2000, compared to $1.2 million or 12.2% of revenue for the same period in 1999. General and administrative expenses were R$2.2 million reals during the three months ended September 30, 2000, compared to R$2.3 million reals for the same period in 1999. General and administrative expenses were relatively constant in real and dollar terms and in relation to revenue in real and dollar terms, the decrease was due to our ability to support higher revenue with a relatively lower administrative base. Nine months ended September 30, 2000 Compared to Nine months ended September 30, 1999 Our International operations' functional currency is the Brazilian real. Brazilian revenue was $38.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to $42.0 million for the same period in 1999, representing a decrease of $3.6 million or 8.6%. Brazilian revenue decreased primarily due to the completion of prior existing contracts. Brazil had revenue of R$56.1 million reals during the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to R$73.1 million reals for the same period in 1999, representing a decrease of 23.2%. The average currency exchange rate was 1.46 reals per US dollar for the period ended September 30, 2000 compared to 1.74 reals per US dollar for the same period in 1999. Brazilian costs of revenue were $33.0 million or 85.9% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to $32.6 million or 77.6% of revenue for the same period in 1999. In 1999, margins were positively impacted as a result of amounts paid by a customer during the second quarter for additional costs incurred during prior periods for which no revenue had been recorded due to the uncertainty of its collection. Amortization expense was $3.3 million or 8.6% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared to $2.4 million or 5.7% of revenue for the same period in 1999. Amortization relates primarily to an intangible asset resulting from one acquisition completed in early 1998 that was being amortized over a five year period relative to the volume of work under specified contracts but was accelerated and fully amortized earlier in 2000. General and administrative expenses were $4.0 million or 10.5% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to $5.1 million or 12.2% of revenue for the same period in 1999. General and administrative expenses were R$5.8 million reals or 10.3% of reals revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to R$8.9 million reals or 12.2% of revenue for the same period in 1999. The decline in general and administrative expenses in relation to revenue in real terms was due to an effort to reduce overhead as the revenue base had declined during the earlier part of the year. 17

Consolidated Results The following table sets forth for the periods indicated certain consolidated income statement data for North America and International and the related percentage of consolidated revenue. Three Months Ended September 30, Nine months ended September 30, -------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------- 2000 1999 2000 1999 ---------------------- -------------------- ----------------------- ------------------- Interest expense $ (4,516) (1.2%) $ (7,273) (2.4%) $ (14,375) (1.5%) $ (20,815) (2.8%) Interest income 1,630 0.4% 2,753 0.9% 3,897 0.4% 8,495 1.2% Other (loss) income, net (9) - (358) - 5,244 0.6% (57) - Income before provision for 42,518 11.1% 29,857 9.9% 98,829 9.7% 61,029 8.2% income taxes and minority interest Provision for income taxes (17,382) (4.5%) (12,405) (4.2%) (40,880) (4.3%) (25,354) (3.4%) Minority interest (48) - (306) - (41) - (2,000) (0.3)% ============ ========= ============ ======= ============ ========= =========== ======== Net income $ 25,088 6.5% $ 17,146 5.7% $ 57,908 6.1% $ 33,675 4.5% ============ ========= ============ ======= ============ ========= =========== ======== Three Months Ended September 30, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 1999 For the three months ended September 30, 2000, interest expense declined from $7.3 million to $4.5 million primarily due to the repayment of debt under our revolving credit facility with a portion of the $126.0 million in net proceeds from our offering of 3.75 million shares in February 2000. Interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was mainly comprised of interest earned on temporary investment of the proceeds of our common stock offering. Interest income for the three months ended September 30, 1999 includes interest from a customer financing arrangement which terminated in September 1999. Our effective tax rates for North American and Brazilian operations were approximately 41% and 33%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. The trends experienced during the nine months ended September 30, 2000, and 1999 related to interest are consistent with those of the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. Other (loss) income, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 primarily reflects a gain of $9.6 million from the sale of our PCS system in Latin America offset by a charge of $5.4 million related to a write-off of two Latin American operations. Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources Our primary liquidity needs are for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and investments, and debt service. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations, borrowings under revolving lines of credit, issuances of stock and the proceeds from the sale of assets held for sale. Net cash provided by operating activities was $6.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to $75.7 million for the same period in 1999. In 1999, we collected approximately $81.4 million from Telegy, Inc. to whom we were providing vendor financing, substantially all of which was paid prior to September 1999. Our working capital at September 30, 2000, was $255.6 million compared to $169.6 million at December 31, 1999. Our North American working capital as of September 30, 2000 was comprised primarily of $338.5 million in accounts receivable, $39.9 million in inventories and other current assets and $46.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, net of $190.8 million in current liabilities. 18

We have a credit facility that provides for borrowings up to an aggregate amount of $100.0 million. Amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility mature on June 9, 2002. We are required to pay an unused facility fee ranging from .25% to .50% per annum on the facility, depending upon certain financial covenants. The credit facility is secured by a pledge of shares of certain of our subsidiaries. Interest under the credit facility accrues at rates based, at our option, on the agent bank's base rate plus a margin of up to .50% depending on certain financial covenants or 1% above the overnight federal funds effective rate, whichever is higher, or the LIBOR Rate (as defined in the credit facility) plus a margin of 1.00% to 2.25%, depending on certain financial covenants. We also have $200.0 million, 7.75% senior subordinated notes due in February 2008 with interest due semi-annually. The credit facility and the senior notes contain customary events of default and covenants which prohibit, among other things, making investments in excess of a specified amount, incurring additional indebtedness in excess of a specified amount, paying dividends in excess of a specified amount, making capital expenditures in excess of a specified amount, creating certain liens, prepaying other indebtedness, including the senior notes, and engaging in certain mergers or combinations without the prior written consent of the lenders. The credit facility also provides that we must maintain certain financial ratio coverages, requiring, among other things, minimum ratios at the end of each fiscal quarter of debt to earnings and earnings to interest expense. During 2000, we invested $40.7 million primarily in our fleet to support revenue growth. We collected $53.6 million in net proceeds related to assets sold, primarily from the sale of our Paraguayan PCS license and our Spanish operations. We also invested $50.4 million in acquisitions and contingent consideration from prior acquisitions during the year. We anticipate that available cash, cash flows from operations and the proceeds from the sale of assets and other liquidity and investments and borrowing availability under the credit facility will be sufficient to satisfy our working capital and other liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future. In the third quarter of 2000, we extended the time period, geographic scope and scope of work under an existing exclusive provider agreement with a telecommunications client, Telergy, Inc. In consideration of these and other modifications to our agreements with the client, we agreed to provide up to $35 million in financing to the client solely to fund our network construction for the client. Our financing was part of a $350 million re-capitalization of the client to fund network construction and development. Interest on the amount financed ranges from 6.25%-7.75% over LIBOR depending on the amount of time the financing has been outstanding. We received warrants at a nominal exercise price to purchase up to 0.7% of the fully diluted outstanding common stock of the client. We agreed to provide an additional $15 million in financing to fund our network construction at the same interest rate; if the additional financing is used we will receive additional warrants at a nominal exercise price to purchase up to 6.0% of the fully diluted outstanding common stock of the client. Our financing is subordinated to the client's senior indebtedness. As of September 30, 2000, the client had drawn $20.1 million on the facility. The facility terminates in April 2002 unless earlier terminated upon certain events, including (a) certain equity or debt issuances, (b) certain asset sales, or (c) a change of control of the client. We also own minority interests in Argentina and Spain. Our investment in Argentina is a minority interest with a carrying value of $17.9 million as of September 30, 2000 in Supercanal Holding, S.A., a holding company of numerous cable television operators in western Argentina ("Supercanal"). We also own a minority interest with a carrying value of $4.1 million and have made a $3.0 million working capital loan to Sistemas e Instalaciones de Comunicacion, S.A. ("Sintel"), a Spanish telecommunications infrastructure services provider. Supercanal has defaulted on its third party debt and has filed a petition under Argentine law seeking protection from its creditors. We do not guarantee any of this indebtedness. In January 2000, the majority shareholder of Supercanal approved a capital increase that would have required us to contribute approximately $5.9 million to maintain our interest if the capital increase is effected in full. The capital increase has been challenged in court and we cannot determine whether or when the capital increase will be effected. During the second quarter of 2000, Sintel filed a petition under Spanish law seeking protection from its creditors, including our working capital loan. In July 2000, Sintel approved a capital increase that will require us to contribute approximately $2.6 million to maintain our interest if the capital increase is effected in full. Management is considering whether to subscribe to the capital increase. 19

We have determined that the carrying value of these assets has not been impaired, but we are monitoring investments to determine whether a charge is warranted in the future. While we do not currently anticipate taking an additional impairment charge on any of these assets, there can be no assurance that future transactions or events will not result in any further impairment of these assets. If we were to take a charge, however, it could adversely affect our earnings for the period in which we incurred the charge. Outlook Our outlook for the fourth quarter is positive. We also expect revenue growth of 20-25% for 2001 with earnings growth outpacing revenue growth. We believe our major clients will continue capital spending, especially in the area of broadband, local loops, last mile hops and central offices. Seasonality Our North American operations have historically been seasonally weaker in the first and fourth quarters of the year and have produced stronger results in the second and third quarters. This seasonality is primarily the result of customer budgetary constraints and preferences and the effect of winter weather on external network activities. Some of our U.S. customers, particularly the incumbent local exchange carriers, tend to complete budgeted capital expenditures before the end of the year and defer additional expenditures until the following budget year. Revenue in reals from our Brazilian operations is not expected to fluctuate seasonally. Impact of Inflation The primary inflationary factor affecting our operations is increased labor costs. We have experienced some increases in labor costs. Competition for qualified personnel could increase labor costs for us further in the future. Our international operations may, at times in the future, be exposed to high inflation in certain foreign countries. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, we generated approximately 4% of our total revenue from our Brazilian operations that are susceptible to currency devaluation. We anticipate that revenue from our Brazilian operations will be less significant to our operations in the foreseeable future due to our continued focus on domestic operations. Any deterioration in economic conditions in Brazil and other Latin American countries could adversely impact our results of operations, financial position and cash flows. 20
