GLOBIX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO INTERIM UNAUDITEDCONSOLIDATED FINANACIAL STATEMENTS (All Amounts in Thousands, Except Share and Per Share Data) NOTE 1 - GENERAL Globix Corporation and its subsidiaries ("Globix" or, the "Company") is a provider of Internet solutions to businesses. The solutions include secure and fault-tolerant Internet data centers with network services providing network connectivity to the Internet and Internet-based managed services and application services, which include co-location, dedicated hosting, streaming media, and messaging services. The Company currently offers services from facilities in New York City, New York, Santa Clara, California, Fairfield, New Jersey, Atlanta, Georgia and London, England. During October 2003 the Company reached an agreement, which was subject to various closing conditions, to sell the property located at 415 Greenwich Street, New York, NY ("the Property") for total cash consideration of approximately $60,000. From October 2003 until the completion of the sale on January 22, 2004 the Property was classified under current assets as property held for sale in accordance with SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" and accordingly was not depreciated during that period. In connection with the sale the Company recorded during the period ended June 30, 2004 an impairment charge of $17,972 to write-down the Property to its market value less cost to sell of approximately $12,000 reflecting a $7,000 termination payment to a third party investor (the "Investor") in the Property, approximately $1,800 of property taxes due in connection with the sale and other related expenses. Also included in the cost to sell were $450 of sale related bonuses to certain of the Company's Executive Officers and employees, which included a $169 payment to the Chairman of the Board of Directors for his contributions in connection with the sale. In connection with the $7,000 termination payment, the Investor agreed to cancel the put-option it had with the Company. The put option gave the Investor the right to require the Company to purchase the Investor's interest in an LLC under various circumstances for an amount equal to 25% of the Investor's capital contribution in the LLC. Accordingly the Company reversed the put-option liability in the amount of $2,968, which represented the fair value of the put-option, through its stockholder's equity. As part of the sale of the Property the Company guaranteed to indemnify and hold the third party investor harmless from any adverse consequences, that the Investor may suffer by reason of any non-compliance by the Company, that directly impaired its ability to use the Historic Tax Credits ("HTC"), associated with the Property. The guaranty is limited to the amount of the HTC used by the Investor estimated at approximately $10,160. The Company estimated the fair value of the guaranty as immaterial based on a discounted cash-flow model. On March 3, 2004 the Company used approximately $44,000 of the net proceeds from the sale to repurchase $40,274 in principal amount of its outstanding 11% Senior Notes Due 2008 at par value plus accrued interest in the amount of $3,716. The Company intends to use the remaining balance of the net proceeds from the sale for working capital purposes. On October 3, 2003, the Company repurchased in the open market for $5,583 a portion of its outstanding 11% Senior Notes, which had a principal value of $7,000 and associated accrued interest of $330. As a result of the repurchase the Company recorded a gain on discharge of debt in the amount of $1,747. During April 2004, the Company reached an agreement with the holder of its $2,600 note payable to prepay the note prior to its maturity for a total consideration of $2,666, representing the face value of the note, accrued interest of $11 and a $55 settlement amount. Following the settlement the $2,600 included in the Company's long-term restricted investment were released from escrow. 5 GLOBIX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO INTERIM UNAUDITEDCONSOLIDATED FINANACIAL STATEMENTS (All Amounts in Thousands, Except Share and Per Share Data) The Company has historically experienced negative cash flow from operations and has incurred net losses. For the nine months ended June 30, 2004, the Company had a net loss of $35,793 and an accumulated deficit at June 30, 2004 of $82,199. Our ability to generate positive cash flows from operations and achieve profitability is dependant upon our ability to grow our revenue while maintaining our current cost structure and network efficiencies. Our management believes that steps taken as part of our restructuring efforts to reduce facilities and personnel, combined with our ongoing efforts to derive efficiencies from our network have reduced our expenses to a level that meets our current revenue rate. The Company believes that its internally generated funds, available cash and investments are sufficient to meet its presently anticipated day-to-day operating expenses, commitments, working capital, capital expenditure and interest payments under its 11% Senior Notes when required to be made in cash. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in executing our business plan, achieving profitability, attracting new customers or maintaining our existing revenue levels or reducing our outstanding indebtedness. In the future, the Company may make acquisitions or repurchase indebtedness of the Company, which, in turn, may adversely affect the Company's liquidity. Approximately 27%, 21% (Unaudited) and 38% of the Company's cost of revenue for the nine and three month periods ended June 30, 2004 and for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2003, respectively is derived from services provided by 2 major telecommunication carriers. While the Company believes that most of these services can be obtained from other alternative carriers, an interruption in services from one of these carriers or other suppliers could limit the Company's ability to serve its customers, which would adversely affect the Company's results of operations. No single customer comprised more than 10% of the Company's revenues for any of the periods presented. NOTE 2 - MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS On October 31, 2003, Globix acquired for cash the business, substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Aptegrity, Inc. ("Aptegrity"), a provider of web application and operations management services for a total net cash consideration of approximately $2,300. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase; accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired. The allocation of the purchase price among the identifiable intangible assets was based upon the Company's estimates of fair value of those assets. The Company has recorded $800 in respect of acquired trademarks and trade names which are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 7 years and $400 was recorded in respect of customer contracts which are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 2 years. The operations of Aptegrity are included in the consolidated statements from November 1, 2003. Pro forma information has not been provided due to immateriality of Aptegrity's results of operations. On July 19, 2004, Globix signed a definitive merger agreement with NEON Communications, Inc. ("Neon"), a privately held provider of optical networking services for customers in the Northeast and mid-Atlantic markets. Neon's revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $41,600. Under the merger agreement, holders of Neon common stock, options and warrants will receive 1.2748 shares of Globix common stock for each share of common stock, options or warrants owned by the holder. As a result of the merger, Neon will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Globix, and holders of Neon common stock and warrants will receive approximately 27.6 million shares of Globix common stock, representing approximately 56.7% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the combined entity. In addition at the closing, the combined entity's cash will be used to redeem one third of Neon's preferred stock and accrued dividends at closing and Globix will issue convertible preferred stock for the balance. Assuming a September 30, 2004 closing, Neon preferred stockholders will receive in the aggregate approximately $5,100 in cash and approximately 1,152,948 shares of a class of Globix preferred stock to be created in the merger, having an aggregate liquidation value of approximately $10,200. The new Globix preferred stock will vote together with the common stock and will be convertible into shares of Globix common stock. The Globix preferred stock will accrue dividends at a rate of 12% per annum and will be redeemable only at the option of Globix, and at the option of the holders upon a change in control. 6 GLOBIX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO INTERIM UNAUDITEDCONSOLIDATED FINANACIAL STATEMENTS (All Amounts in Thousands, Except Share and Per Share Data) Following the merger, the Board of Globix will include 4 members of the Board of Directors of Neon, 4 members of the current Globix Board and 1 member who currently serves on both the Globix and the Neon Boards. The transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including approval of the merger by Neon stockholders, the registration of the Globix common stock and preferred stock to be issued in the merger and other regulatory approvals. The merger is also conditioned upon a debt for equity exchange where, in a private transaction, certain of Globix's senior secured note holders will exchange $12,500 in principal and accrued interest of its 2008 11% Senior Notes for approximately 4,545,455 shares of Globix common stock. NOTE 3 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF PRESENTATION The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared by the Company according to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements furnished herein include all of the adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position at June 30, 2004 and for the three and nine month periods then ended. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, contained in the 2003 Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year ending September 30, 2004. MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES The preparation of the Company's financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions. Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Significant estimates include estimates of the collectibility of accounts receivable, the useful lives and ultimate realizability of property, equipment, intangible assets and deferred tax assets. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period that they are determined to be necessary. Actual results may vary from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION As permitted by SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", which establishes a fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation plans, the Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" for recognizing stock-based compensation expense for financial statement purposes. For companies that choose to continue applying the intrinsic value method, SFAS No. 123 mandates certain pro forma disclosures as if the fair value method had been utilized. The Company accounts for stock based compensation to consultants in accordance with EITF 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services" and SFAS No. 123. In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123", which provides optional transition guidance for those companies electing to voluntarily adopt the accounting provisions of SFAS No. 123. In addition, SFAS No. 148 mandates certain new disclosures that are incremental to those required by SFAS No. 123. The Company continued to account for stock-based compensation in accordance with APB No. 25. 7 GLOBIX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO INTERIM UNAUDITEDCONSOLIDATED FINANACIAL STATEMENTS (All Amounts in Thousands, Except Share and Per Share Data) The following table illustrates the effect on loss attributable to common stockholders and loss per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to stock-based employee compensation.

For the nine-month and three month periods ended June 30, 2004, the Company granted its employees 175,000 and 0 options, respectively. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin (ARB) No. 51", which relates to the identification of, and financial reporting for, variable-interest entities (VIEs). FIN No. 46 requires that if an entity is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the variable interest entity should be included in the consolidated financial statements of the entity. The provisions of FIN No. 46 are effective immediately for all arrangements entered into after January 31, 2003. For those arrangements entered into prior to February 1, 2003, the provisions of FIN No. 46 are required to be adopted at the beginning of the first interim or annual period beginning after June 15, 2003. In October 2003, FASB Staff Position deferred the effective date for existing VIE arrangements created before February 1, 2003 to the first interim or annual reporting period that ends after December 15, 2003.

9 GLOBIX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO INTERIM UNAUDITEDCONSOLIDATED FINANACIAL STATEMENTS (All Amounts in Thousands, Except Share and Per Share Data) NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES There is a putative class action lawsuit pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York entitled In re Globix Corp Securities Litigation, No. 02-CV-00082. This lawsuit names as defendants Globix and our former officers Marc Bell, Peter Herzig (who remains a director of Globix) and Brian Reach, and asserts claims under sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder on behalf of all persons or entities who purchased our securities between November 16, 2000 and December 27, 2001. A consolidated amended complaint was filed in this lawsuit on June 28, 2002. The Company filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint, but withdrew this motion without prejudice in the course of settlement discussions with the parties. On March 31, 2004, the parties entered into an agreement in principle to settle all claims against the defendants for $3,500, all of which would be covered by insurance. The proposed settlement is subject to the approval of the court. If the settlement is not approved by the court, the Company intends to re-file our motion to dismiss. We believe that the allegations in this lawsuit are without merit and we intend to vigorously defend against them. Although there can be no assurance as to the outcome or effect of this lawsuit, the Company does not believe, based on currently available information, that the ultimate liabilities, if any, resulting from this lawsuit will have a material adverse impact on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. On June 25, 2002, we entered into a Stipulation and Order with the lead plaintiffs in the class action lawsuit. The Stipulation and Order provides that 229,452 shares of our common stock and $1,968 in aggregate principal amount of the 11% Senior Notes will be held in escrow pending the outcome of the class action lawsuit. In the event that any judgment or settlement entered into in connection with the class action lawsuit requires us to pay an amount in excess of our liability insurance, we will be required to issue to the class action litigants and their attorneys all (in the event that this excess is $10,000 or greater) or a portion of (in the event that this excess is less than $10,000) the shares of our common stock and the 11% Senior Notes being held in escrow. Based on the settlement discussions and proposed settlement agreement, the Company does not believe that the shares of common stock and 11% Senior Notes that are being held in escrow are likely to be distributed to the class action litigants and their attorneys. On November 12, 2003, we were served with a complaint filed in the United States Court for Southern District of New York, entitled Alfred G. Binford v. Globix Corporation, alleging breach of contract claims related to the failure to make payments under an employment letter, as amended, seeking damages in the amount of $2,113. Although there can be no assurance as to the outcome or effect of this lawsuit, we do not believe, based on currently available information, that the ultimate liabilities, if any, resulting from this lawsuit will have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Globix has accrued its estimated liability. A court date of November 1, 2004 has been set. From time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of our business operations. Although there can be no assurance as to the outcome or effect of any legal proceedings to which the Company is a party, the Company does not believe, based on currently available information, that the ultimate liabilities, if any, arising from any such legal proceedings would have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Except for the information described above, there have been no developments since the prior descriptions in Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2003 Form 10-K, and the "Legal Proceedings" section thereto. 10 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements Certain statements in this Form 10-Q, under the captions "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk," and "Legal Proceedings," constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements involve unknown and uncertain risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are identified by the use of forward looking words or phrases such as "anticipates," "intends," "expects," "believes," "estimates," or words or phrases of similar import.

Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements. Among these factors are the Company's high degree of leverage and history of operating losses, its ability to retain existing customers and attract new customers, its ability to achieve cost-savings and generate positive cash flow, risks associated with potential acquisitions and divestitures and other factors affecting the Company's business generally. Such factors are more fully described herein and in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2003, which should be considered in connection with a review of this report. For a general discussion of risks affecting the Company's business, see "Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2003. OVERVIEW Globix Corporation is a provider of Internet services for small to large size businesses in a broad range of industries. Our Company was founded in 1989 and in 1998 undertook a major expansion plan in order to pursue opportunities resulting from the growth of the Internet. On March 1, 2002, the Company filed a voluntary petition under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, together with a prepackaged Plan of Reorganization, which we refer to as the "Plan," with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. We continued to operate in Chapter 11 in the ordinary course of business and received permission from the bankruptcy court to pay our employees, trade, and certain other creditors in full and on time, regardless of whether these claims arose prior to or after the Chapter 11 filing. On April 8, 2002, the bankruptcy court confirmed the Plan. Effective April 25, 2002, all conditions necessary for the Plan to become effective were satisfied or waived and we emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. For additional information about our reorganization, see "Our Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Reorganization" under Part I in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2003. Although the Company operates in one operating segment, there are 4 major service lines as follows: INTERNET HOSTING AND CO-LOCATION - We offer co-location solutions for customers who choose to own and maintain their own servers, but require the physically secure, climate-controlled environment provided by our Internet data centers and connectivity to our network. We offer hosting services in a dedicated server environment. This service includes providing hardware usage, bandwidth and managed services to meet customer-specific needs. MANAGED SERVICES - We provide managed application, system, network and media services to our hosting and co-location customers. Such services include a wide variety of maintenance, administration and problem resolution services for many popular operating systems, Internet network devices, software security solutions, web-based applications, as well as streaming media delivered in a streaming or continuous fashion over the Internet or over a company's intranet. NETWORK SERVICES AND INTERNET ACCESS - We provide access to our network for our hosting and co-location customers located inside of our Internet Data Centers as well as Internet access services, which provide businesses with high-speed continuous access to the Internet from their own premises. In addition, we provide other services, such as domain name registration, local loop provisioning, Internet address assignment, router configuration, e-mail configuration and management and technical consulting services. 11 OTHER - Is comprised of hardware and software sales and other non-recurring revenue. For the nine-month period ended June 30, 2003 other also includes revenue from DSL customer accounts, which were sold during the second quarter of fiscal year 2003. For a more detailed description of these service lines see "Business" section in our 2003 Form 10-K. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon our interim consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our accounting estimates on historical experience and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may vary from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The following is a summary of our critical accounting policies and estimates: REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenue consists primarily of Internet Hosting, Co-Location, Managed Services, Network Services and Internet Access. We recognize revenue in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin, or SAB, No. 101 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements," as amended when delivery has occurred, persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectability is probable. SAB No. 101 expresses the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission's staff in applying accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America to certain revenue recognition issues. Under the provisions of SAB No. 101, set up and installation revenue are deferred and recognized over the estimated length of the customer relationship, which in the case of our business is approximately 36 months. Prior to April 30, 2002, the estimated length of the customer relationship was 12-18 months. Effective October 1, 2000, we changed our revenue recognition method for set up and service installation fees upon the adoption of SAB No. 101. Prior to our adoption of SAB No. 101, we recognized revenue immediately upon completion of set up or installation. The change in accounting principle resulted in a revenue deferral and cumulative effect charge totaling $2.3 million, or $0.06 per share, which was reflected in our consolidated statements of operations for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001. Our adoption of SAB No. 101 decreased our net loss by $0.5 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001. The effect of our adoption of SAB No. 101 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2000 was not material. Monthly service revenue under recurring agreements related to Internet Hosting, Co-Location, Network Services, Internet Access and Managed Services is recognized over the period the service is provided. Revenue derived from project or event type Managed Service engagements is recognized over the life of the engagement. Payments received in advance of providing services are deferred until the period that these services are provided. As of June 30, 2004 and September 30, 2003 deferred revenue amounted to $1,637 and $1,924, respectively. COST OF REVENUE Cost of revenue consists primarily of telecommunications costs for Internet access and managed hosting and includes the cost of hardware and software purchased for resale to customers and payroll cost, which relates to certain managed services. Cost of revenue excludes certain payroll, occupancy, depreciation and amortization. Telecommunications costs include the cost of providing local loop for connecting dedicated access customers to the Company's network, leased line and associated costs related to connecting with the Company's peering partners and costs associated with leased lines connecting the Company's facilities to its backbone and aggregation points of presence. INTANGIBLE ASSETS We adopted SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" when we emerged from bankruptcy in April 2002. SFAS 141 requires all business combinations to be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and that certain intangible assets acquired in a business combination must be recognized as assets separate from goodwill. SFAS No. 142 addresses the recognition and measurement of goodwill and other intangible assets subsequent to their acquisition. SFAS No. 142 also addresses the initial recognition and measurement of intangible assets acquired outside of a business combination whether acquired individually or with a group of other assets. SFAS No. 142 provides that intangible assets with indefinite lives and goodwill will not be amortized but will be tested at least annually for impairment. If impairment is indicated then the asset will be written down to its fair value typically based upon its future expected discounted cash flows. 12 Our intangible assets following bankruptcy are as follows: o trademarks and trade name; o network build-out/know-how; and o customer contracts. We amortize intangible assets by the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Trademarks and trade name are amortized over a period of 7-15 years, network build-out/know-how is amortized over 8 years and the customer contracts are amortized over 2-3 years. ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. Use of estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, credit reserve and deferred tax valuation allowance. ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS AND CREDIT RESERVE At each reporting period we evaluate on a specific basis the economic condition of our customers and their ability and intent to pay their debt. If such evaluation shows that it is probable that a customer will not settle his full obligation, a reserve against accounts receivable in general and administrative expense is recorded for the questionable amount. We also maintain a general bad debt reserve, which is based on the aging of our customers receivables. In addition during each reporting period we must make estimates of potential future credits, which will be issued in respect of current revenues. We analyze historical credits and changes in customer demands regarding our current billings when evaluating credit reserves. If such analysis shows that it is probable that a credit will be issued, we reserve the estimated credit amount against revenues in the current period. As of June 30, 2004 and September 30, 2003 the balance of bad debt reserve amounted to approximately $2.2 million (Unaudited) and $2.6 million, respectively. ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements we are required to estimate our income tax expense in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves us estimating our actual current tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items, such as accruals and reserves, for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within our consolidated balance sheet. We must then assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and to the extent we believe that recovery is not likely, we must establish a valuation allowance. Management currently estimates that it is more likely than not that these assets will not be realized in the foreseeable future and accordingly a 100% valuation allowance is recorded against the deferred tax assets. INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION The consolidated financial information as of June 30, 2004 and for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 is unaudited, but includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring accruals, that management considers necessary for a fair presentation of its combined results of operations, financial position and cash flows. Results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire fiscal year. 13 QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 COMPARED TO THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 REVENUE, NET. Revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 increased 8.3% or $1.2 million to $15.7 million from $14.5 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003. We analyze the change in our revenue by service lines as follows: Revenue from Managed Services increased by $1.7 million to $4.9 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2004 mainly due to the Aptegrity acquisition and our continued growth in Managed Services. Revenue from Internet Hosting and Co-Location and revenue from Network Services and Internet Access were down $266 thousand and $409 thousand, respectively to $6.1 million and $4.5 million, respectively for the three month period ended June 30, 2004 mainly due to lower revenue under recurring contracts. Hardware and software sales, DSL and Other were up by $162 thousand to $241 thousand for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 mainly due to a non-recurring event and slightly higher hardware and software sales. The aforementioned analysis includes the positive effect of foreign exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the British Pound in the amount of approximately $675 thousand on our revenue quarter over quarter. During the quarter ended June 30, 2004 our monthly positive change in contract rate (negative churn) averaged 1.0% compared to a monthly averaged churn rate of 1.7% for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. New contracts increased 1.3% and contract upgrades increased 1.7% offset by 1.0% increase in contract downgrades and 1.0% increase in customer cancellations. We define churn as contractual revenue losses due to customer cancellations and downgrades, net of upgrades, and additions of new services. Cancellations refer to customers that have either stopped using our services completely or remained a customer but terminated a particular service. Downgrades are a result of customers taking less of a particular service or renewing their contract for identical services at a lower price. COST OF REVENUE. Cost of revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2004, increased $334 thousand to $4.9 million from $4.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. This was mainly due to additional labor costs of $801 thousand associated with the business acquired from Aptegrity and our continued focus on Managed Services, offset by a decrease of approximately $460 thousand of costs associated with our network cost resulting from our continued focus on deriving efficiencies and cost savings from our network. The aforementioned analysis includes the adverse effect of foreign exchange rates between the U.S dollar and the British Pound in the amount of approximately $86 thousand on cost of revenue quarter over quarter. As a result of the variances described above and as a result of the increase in our revenue, gross margins increased to 68.6% for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 compared to 68.3% for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1.6 million to $10.9 million as compared to $9.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was mainly due to a $1.7 million credit recorded during the three month period ended June 30, 2003 as a result of the settlement of the Rabbi Trust litigation as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. In addition, salaries and benefits increased $439 thousand to $5.5 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2004 compared to $5.0 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2003. Our marketing expenses were up by $283 thousand to $366 thousand as a result of our increased efforts to enhance long-term growth and improve our public relations. These were offset by a decrease in our bad debt expenses of $136 thousand to $41 thousand for the quarter ended June 30, 2004, compared to $177 thousand in the same quarter last year, as a result of improvement in collections and a reduction in the number of high risk customer account receivable balances and by other costs reductions in the amount of $374 thousand arising from negotiating with our vendors and other service providers as part of our efforts to reduce our costs. The aforementioned analysis includes the adverse effect of foreign exchange rate in the amount of approximately $356 thousand on selling, general and administrative quarter over quarter. DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization decreased to $3.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2004, as compared to $4.1 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2003. The decrease resulted from $434 thousand of depreciation expenses recorded in the three month period ended June 30, 2003 related to the Property which was not depreciated during the same period in 2004 and from lower capital spending, offset by amortization of intangible assets resulting from the acquisition of Aptegrity in the amount of $80 thousand. 14 INTEREST AND FINANCING EXPENSES. Interest and financing expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 was $2.5 million, compared to $3.8 million, for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. This decrease was attributable to the repurchase of approximately $16.8 million of our 11% Senior Notes during the calendar year 2003 and by the repurchase of approximately $40.3 million of our 11% Senior Notes during March 2004. These were offset by an increase in the balance of the 11% Senior Notes of approximately $11.3 million and $7.2 million resulting from the required payment in kind of the related accrued interest as of May, 2003 and May 2004, respectively. INTEREST INCOME. Interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 was $100 thousand, compared to $295 thousand, for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in our cash and investments balances. OTHER INCOME, NET. Other income for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 was $412 thousand, compared to $220 thousand, for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. The increase was due primarily to rental income of $224 thousand from leasing office space in our 139 Centre Street facility. INCOME TAX EXPENSE. Income tax expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 in the amount of $21 thousand represent our estimated income taxes due in the U.K. We did not record any income tax expense during the same period of 2003. NET LOSS ATTRIBUTABLE TO COMMON STOCKHOLDERS. As a result of the factors described above, we reported net loss of $5.6 million, or $0.34 basic and diluted loss per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2004, as compared to a net loss of $5.4 million, or $0.33 basic and diluted loss per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 COMPARED TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 REVENUE, NET. Revenue for nine-month period ended June 30, 2004 decreased 2.6% or $1.2 million to $45.1 million from $46.3 million for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2003. By service lines, revenue from Internet Hosting and Co-Location and revenue from Network Services and Internet Access were down $2.2 and $1.4 million, respectively to $17.9 million and $13.2 million, respectively for the nine month period ended June 30, 2004 mainly due to lower revenue under recurring contracts. Hardware and software sales, DSL and Other was down by $1.2 million to $371 thousand for the nine month period ended June 30, 2004 mainly due to a decrease of $718 thousand from DSL services as a result of the sale of our DSL customer accounts during the fiscal year 2003 and a decrease of approximately $400 thousand in lower margin hardware and software sales. Revenue from Managed Services increased by $3.6 million to $13.7 million in the nine-month period ended June 30, 2004 mainly due to the Aptegrity acquisition and our continued growth in Managed Services. The aforementioned analysis includes the positive effect of foreign exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the British Pound in the amount of approximately $2.0 million on our revenue period over period. During the nine-month period ended June 30, 2004 our monthly positive change in contract rate (negative churn) averaged 0.7% compared to a monthly averaged churn rate of 2.1% for the same period in 2003. New contracts increased 2.3% and contract upgrades increased 1.5%, offset by 1.6% increase in contract downgrades and a 1.5% increase in contract cancellations. COST OF REVENUE. Cost of revenue for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2004, decreased $714 thousand to $14.8 million from $15.5 million for the same period in 2003. This was mainly due to $2.3 million decrease in our network cost resulting from our continued focus on deriving efficiencies and cost savings from our network. Additional decrease of approximately $400 thousand resulted from lower hardware costs as a result of our shift away from lower margin hardware sales. These decreases were offset in part by additional labor costs of $2.0 million associated with the business acquired from Aptegrity and our continued focus on Managed Services. The aforementioned analysis includes the adverse effect of foreign exchange rates between the U.S dollar and the British Pound in the amount of approximately $275 thousand on cost of revenue period over period. As a result of the variances described above gross margins increased to 67.2% for the nine month period ended June 30, 2004 compared to 66.6% for the same period ended June 30, 2003. 15 SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $1.2 million to $32.6 million as compared to $33.7 million for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2003. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was mainly due to a one time non-cash charge of $1.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2003 related to warrants granted to one of the Company's consultants. In addition salaries and benefits decreased $686 thousand to $15.7 million in the nine-month period ended June 30, 2004 compared to $16.4 million in the same period in 2003, which resulted from our restructuring efforts that focused on significant reduction in facilities and personnel. Bad debt expenses decreased $817 thousand to $615 thousand for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2004, compared to $1.4 million in the same period last year, as a result of improvement in collections and a reduction in the number of high risk customer account receivable balances. Other cost savings amounting to approximately $700 thousand resulting from our efforts to reduce our operating cost. These were offset mainly by a $1.7 million credit recorded during the nine-month period ended June 30, 2003 as a result of the settlement of the Rabbi Trust litigation. In addition, our marketing expenses were up by approximately $630 thousand to $955 thousand in the nine-month period ended June 30, 2004 as a result of our increased efforts to enhance long-term growth and improving our public relations. The aforementioned analysis includes the adverse effect of foreign exchange rate in the amount of approximately $1.1 million on selling, general and administrative period over period. LOSS ON IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS. Impairment charges for the nine month period ended June 30, 2004 amounted to $18 million as a result of the write-down of the cost basis of the Company's property located at 415 Greenwich Street in New York, NY ("the Property") to its market value less cost to sell of approximately $11.5 million. The sale of the Property was consummated on January 22, 2004 for total cash consideration of $60 million. DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization decreased $1.5 million to $10.4 million for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2004, as compared to $11.9 million in the same period in 2003. The decrease resulted from $1.3 million of depreciation expenses recorded in the nine month period ended June 30, 2003 related to the Property which was not depreciated during the same period in 2004 and from lower capital spending, offset by amortization of intangible assets resulting from the acquisition of Aptegrity in the amount of $212 thousand. INTEREST AND FINANCING EXPENSES. Interest and financing expense for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2004 was $9.0 million, compared to $11.2 million for the same period in 2003. The decrease was attributable to the repurchase of approximately $16.8 million of our 11% Senior Notes during the calendar year 2003 and by the repurchase of approximately $40.3 million of our 11% Senior Notes during March 2004. These were offset by an increase in the balance of the 11% Senior Notes of approximately $11.3 million and $7.2 million resulting from the required payment in kind of the related accrued interest as of May, 2003 and 2004, respectively. INTEREST INCOME. Interest income for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2004 was $415 thousand, compared to $1,030 thousand, for the same period in 2003. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in our cash and investments. OTHER INCOME, NET. Other income for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2004 was $1.6 million, compared to $606 thousand, for the same period in 2003. The increase was due primarily to the receipt of a $450 thousand for an insurance claim filed in connection with the September 11, 2001 terrorist attack, and $637 thousand from leasing office space in our 139 Centre Street facility. INCOME TAX EXPENSE. Income tax expenses for the nine month period ended June 30, 2004 in the amount of $56 thousand represent our estimated income taxes due in the U.K. We did not record any income tax expense during the same period of 2003. NET LOSS ATTRIBUTABLE TO COMMON STOCKHOLDERS. As a result of the factors described above, we reported net loss of $35.8 million, or $2.17 basic and diluted loss per share for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2004, as compared to a net loss of $17.7 million, or $1.08 basic and diluted loss per share for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2003. 16 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES As of June 30, 2004 the Company had cash and cash equivalents, short-term and long-term investments totaling to approximately $21.7 million compared to approximately $32.4 million on September 30, 2003. This decrease of $10.7 million included a $13.5 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents to $11.0 million at June 30, 2004 from $24.5 million at September 30, 2003. This was mainly attributable to operating activities, investing activities and financing activities as described below. During the nine month period ended June 30, 2004, the Company has completed the sale of the Property for approximately $48.7 million in net proceeds, of which approximately $44 million was used to purchase a portion of our 11% Senior Notes including accrued interest and the remainder was used for working capital. OPERATING ACTIVITIES: Net cash used in operating activities during the nine month period ended June 30, 2004 was approximately $5.1 million. This was attributed mainly to our net loss of $35.8 million which included non-cash depreciation and amortization expenses of $10.4 million and a non-cash impairment charge of $18.0 million resulting from a write-down of the Property to its fair market value less cost for sale offset by a non-cash gain on debt discharge of $1.7 million resulting from the repurchase of portion of our 11% Senior Notes. Changes in assets and liabilities resulted in an increase to operating cash flow of approximately $3.8 million. This was mainly attributed to a $7.4 million increase in accrued interest on the 11% Senior Notes offset by $1.3 million decrease in accrued liabilities, a $1.0 million decrease in accounts payable and by $0.9 million increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets. INVESTING ACTIVITIES: Net cash provided by investing activities during the nine-month period ended June 30, 2004 was $44.3 million. Approximately $48.7 million resulted from the sale of the Property and approximately $1.0 million, net resulted from the sale of our investment in Globecomm Systems, Inc. and other investments. This was offset by the use of $2.3 million for the acquisition of Aptegrity and $3.2 million for capital expenditures. FINANCING ACTIVITIES: Net cash used in financing activities during the nine month period ended June 30, 2004 was $53.2 million. Approximately $49.6 million of the cash used in financing activities was attributed to the repurchase of a portion of our 11% Senior Notes and related accrued interest in the open market and as part of an offer to the holders of the 11% Notes in connection with the sale of the Property. $2.6 million was used to prepay a long-term note payable and the remaining $1.1 million was used for payment and settlement of certain contractual obligations. Historically our cost structure exceeded our revenue base mainly due to high labor costs resulting from higher then necessary head count, significant level of overhead due to numerous locations and overlapping within our network. This has led us to historically experience negative cash flows from operations and incur net losses. Our management believes that steps taken as part of our restructuring efforts to reduce facilities and personnel, combined with our ongoing efforts to derive efficiencies from our network have reduced our expenses to a level that meets our current revenue rate. Our ability to generate positive cash flows from operations and achieve profitability is dependent upon our ability to grow our revenue while maintaining our current cost structure and network efficiencies. Management believes that by maintaining a monthly positive change in contract rate (negative churn) and by continuing to focus on providing managed services solutions it will be able to meet its revenue and profitability targets. The Company also believes that its internally generated funds, available cash and investments are sufficient to meet its presently anticipated day-to-day operating expenses, commitments, working capital, capital expenditure and interest payments under its 11% Senior Notes when required to be made in cash. Additionally, since emerging from bankruptcy management has taken several significant steps to reduce its level of outstanding indebtedness and it is committed to further reduce its financial obligations by settling them in cash, converting into equity instruments, refinancing or any other manner, which may be beneficial to the Company. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in executing our business plan, achieving profitability, attracting new customers or maintaining our existing revenue levels or reducing our outstanding indebtedness. In the future, we may make acquisitions or repurchase indebtedness of our Company, which, in turn, may adversely affect our liquidity. 17 ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK At June 30, 2004, investments consisted of an investment in a limited partnership that invests in fixed income securities and investments in fixed rate investment grade and government securities denominated in U.S. dollars. At June 30, 2004, the majority of our investments were due to mature within twelve months and the carrying value of these investments approximated fair value. As of June 30, 2004 marketable securities included our investment in EDGAR Online Inc., which is recorded at fair market value. We do not hedge our exposure to fluctuations in the value of our investments in equity securities. At June 30, 2004, $4.4 million of our cash and investments were restricted in accordance with the terms of certain collateral obligations. We are also subject to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rates. Approximately 42% of our revenues and approximately 28% of our operating costs and expenses for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2004 were denominated in British Pounds. To date, we have not utilized financial instruments to minimize our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations. We will continue to analyze risk management strategies to minimize foreign currency exchange risk in the future. The Company believes that an immediate increase or decrease of 5% of the Dollar in comparison to the British Pound would not have a material impact on its operating results or cash flows. We believe that we have limited exposure to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. The fair value of our investment portfolio or related income would not be significantly impacted by changes in interest rates due mainly to the short-term nature of the majority of our investment portfolio. An increase or decrease in interest rates would not significantly increase or decrease interest expense on debt obligations, due to the fixed nature of the substantial majority of our debt obligations. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Based on their evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that such controls and procedures are effective. There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. 18 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS There is a putative class action lawsuit pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York entitled In re Globix Corp Securities Litigation, No. 02-CV-00082. This lawsuit names as defendants Globix and our former officers Marc Bell, Peter Herzig (who remains a director of Globix) and Brian Reach, and asserts claims under sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder on behalf of all persons or entities who purchased our securities between November 16, 2000 and December 27, 2001. A consolidated amended complaint was filed in this lawsuit on June 28, 2002. We filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint, but withdrew this motion without prejudice in the course of settlement discussions with the parties. On March 31, 2004, the parties entered into an agreement in principle to settle all claims against the defendants for $3.5 million, all of which would be covered by insurance. The proposed settlement is subject to the approval of the court. If the settlement is not approved by the court, we intend to re-file our motion to dismiss. We believe that the allegations in this lawsuit are without merit and we intend to vigorously defend against them. Although there can be no assurance as to the outcome or effect of this lawsuit, we do not believe, based on currently available information, that the ultimate liabilities, if any, resulting from this lawsuit will have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. On June 25, 2002, we entered into a Stipulation and Order with the lead plaintiffs in the class action lawsuit. The Stipulation and Order provides that 229,452 shares of our common stock and $1,968,000 in aggregate principal amount of the 11% senior notes will be held in escrow pending the outcome of the class action lawsuit. In the event that any judgment or settlement entered into in connection with the class action lawsuit requires us to pay an amount in excess of our liability insurance, we will be required to issue to the class action litigants and their attorneys all (in the event that this excess is $10 million or greater) or a portion of (in the event that this excess is less than $10 million) the shares of our common stock and the 11% senior notes being held in escrow. Based on the settlement discussions and proposed settlement agreement, Globix does not believe that the shares of common stock and 11% senior notes that are being held in escrow are likely to be distributed to the class action litigants and their attorneys. On November 12, 2003, we were served with a complaint filed in the United States Court for Southern District of New York, entitled Alfred G. Binford v. Globix Corporation, alleging breach of contract claims related to the failure to make payments under an employment letter, as amended, seeking damages in the amount of $2,113,000. Although there can be no assurance as to the outcome or effect of this lawsuit, we do not believe, based on currently available information, that the ultimate liabilities, if any, resulting from this lawsuit will have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Globix has accrued its estimated liability. A court date of November 1, 2004 has been set. From time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of our business operations. Although there can be no assurance as to the outcome or effect of any legal proceedings to which the Company is a party, the Company does not believe, based on currently available information, that the ultimate liabilities, if any, arising from any such legal proceedings would have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Except for the information described above, there have been no developments since the prior descriptions in Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2003 Form 10-K, and the "Legal Proceedings" section thereto.
