SEC 1344 (2-99) 2 EXHIBIT A Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2000 is not finalized as we are assessing the impact of the appropriate accounting treatment in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121: "ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND FOR LONG-LIVED ASSETS DISPOSED OF" associated with the potential asset sale of our PT-1 subsidiary. We anticipate that the loss from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2000, excluding the impact of the accounting treatment referred to above, will be approximately $17.1 million compared to a loss from operations for the three months ended March 31, 1999 of $6.3 million. Our loss from operations is primarily attributable to a decrease in operating margin for the three months ended March 31, 2000 due primarily to rate compression in the wholesale market, goodwill amortization, and increases in European expenses including increased private line costs as well as increased payroll, advertising and promotional expenses. The decrease in operating margin is partially offset by a decrease in North American selling, general and administrative expenses due primarily to the elimination of redundant staff positions during the third quarter of 1999.
